In search of an alpha2-antagonist/5-HT uptake inhibitor as a potential new class of antidepressant with a more rapid onset of action, compound 3 was prepared and observed to possess high affinity for the alpha2-receptor (K(i) = 6.71 nM) and the 5-HT uptake site (20.6 nM). A series of tertiary amine analogs of 3 were synthesized and assayed for their affinity at both the alpha2-receptor and the 5-HT uptake site. The structure-activity relationship reveals that a variety of structural modifications to the arylethyl fragment are possible with retention of this dual activity. On the tetralin portion, 5-OMe substitution and the (R) stereochemistry at C-1 are optimal with alternate substitutions producing compounds retaining high affinity for the alpha2-receptor but lacking affinity for the 5-HT uptake site. Data for several rigidified 5-O-alkyl analogs suggests that the favored orientation of the oxygen lone pairs may be away from the 6-position of the tetralin.
