Cilobamine is a drug which acts as a norepinephrine-dopamine reuptake inhibitor (NDRI) and has stimulant and antidepressant effects. [1] [2]

Contents

It can clearly be seen that the structure is based on dichloroisoprenaline that has been fused onto the bicycloalkane scaffold.

Synthesis

Patent: Cilobamine synthesis.svg
Patent:

An intramolecular Dieckmann cyclization on methyl 4-(2-methoxy-2-oxoethyl)cyclohexanecarboxylate (3) with sodium hydride base provides methyl 3-oxobicyclo[2.2.2]octane-2-carboxylate (4). Treatment with sodium nitrite introduces an isonitroso group adjacent to the ketone, giving 3-Hydroxyiminobicyclo[2.2.2]octan-2-one (5). Addition of the aryl Grignard reagent, and reduction of the oxime gives (6). A reductive amination of the primary amino group with acetone then completes the synthesis of cilobamine (7).
