Abstract : A series of gamma-amino alcohols were synthesized and screened for reuptake inhibition and noncompetitive NMDA antagonism. Compound (+/-)-3f simultaneously and potently inhibits reuptake of 5-HT, NE, and DA, representing a potential wide-spectrum reuptake inhibitor antidepressant. In addition, comparative rat and human studies uncovered a species-selective DA reuptake inhibitor (+/-)-2e, KD(hDAT)/KD(rDAT) = 97.
