i was looking at the structure of propylhexedrine and something occurred to me... may have been because of the particular way that chemfinder arranged it
i looked at the structure and i saw that one could see a methyl/acetyl amine (as in N with CH3 on one side and an acetyl on the other). It occurred to me that maybe if one had this amine and some variant of a benzyl, whichever is appropriate, and cause it to bind forming our favourite amine.
I know that this strategy would most probably be easiest approached in terms of a grignard, but maybe there might be other ways to approach it, and maybe someone else has already thought of this... i suppose i should go read up on other reactions that can occur with acetyls in terms of binding in the position of the keto group.
just did a bit of reading and found that a grignard route is not available when one has the amine attached to it. other possibilities may exist though.
My friend swim was sharing some similar views in its structure and mechanics of action. Swim might be a new bee, but he claimed to see something of use, or at least something worth checking out as it is common otc.
N - Dimethylcyclohexaneethylamine: a sympathomimetic adrenergic compound which has CNS actions similar to that of amphetamines. It was developed as a replacement for Benzedrine in 1949. Commonly found in a combination with lavender oil and menthol...supposedly it is eaten, or extracted and injected IV for its effects.
He was hoping someone could shed some light onto this dark corner chemical land...
