Abstract:

The cocaine binding site at the dopamine transporter has been found to be stereoselective. Thus, the seven possible stereoisomers of (-)-cocaine have been synthesized and found to inhibit [3H]-2 beta-carbomethoxy-3 beta-(4-fluoro-phenyl)tropane [( 3H]WIN 35,428) with potencies ranging from 1/60 to 1/600 of that of (-)-cocaine. The synthesis and characterization of all new compounds is presented.
