, p. 3659 - 3663 (2000)
A stereospecific method for the synthesis of enantiopure α-aminoketone from its corresponding α-hydroxy-ketone via the triflate intermediate is discussed. This strategy provides a rapid and efficient route for the preparation of either enantiomer of bupro

The invention provides hydroxybupropion analogues capable of inhibiting the reuptake of one or more monoamines and/or acting as antagonists at nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. The compounds may selectively bind to one or more monoamine transporters, including those for dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin and/or may selectively bind to one or more nicotinic acetylcholine receptor subtypes. Such compounds may be used to treat conditions that are responsive to modification of monoamine levels and/or antagonism of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, including drug dependency, depression, and obesity.
