The subject compounds were prepared as a part of a continuing structure-activity study of the contrasting actions (agonism-antagonism) of (+)- and (-)-11-hydroxy-10-methylaporphine at serotonin (5-HT1A) receptors. None of the targeted nonoxygenated aporphine derivatives demonstrated significant acti...
