The enantiomers of 6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-N,N-di-n-propyl-3H-benz[e]indol-8- amine (S-(-)-2b and R-(+)-2b) and their corresponding 1-formyl analogs (S-(- )-6 and R-(+)-6 were prepared and evaluated pharmacologically for serotonergic and dopaminergic activity. The introduction of a formyl group in the 1-position shifted the pharmacological profile of 2b from a mixed D2/5- HT(1A) agonists to a selective 5-HT(1A) agonist (6). The enantiomers of 6 were agonists with full intrinsic activity and had an affinity comparable to that of 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetrahydronaphthalene (8-OH-DPAT). In contrast to 8-OH-DPAT, the enantiomers of compound 6 were found to have good oral availability.
