Clomacranis anantipsychotic drugof the dihydroacridineclass, developed in the 1970s[2]by the pharmaceutical companySmith, Kline & French(nowGlaxoSmithKline) under the brand names Devryl and Olaxin.[1]

It was used to treat schizophrenia in the 1970s.[6]It was withdrawn from the market in the UK, due to liver toxicity, in 1982.[4][7][8]

Synthesis

[edit]

Clomacran can be synthesized beginning with 2-chloroacridone (1) which is reacted with aGrignard reagentderived from 3-chloro-N,N-dimethylpropylamine (2) to afford the tertiary carbinol (3).[9][10][11][12]Dehydrationby means of acid or simply heat gives the corresponding olefin (4). Catalytic reduction completes the synthesis of clomacran (5).
