ABSTRACT

The enantiomers of 3-alpha-tropyl 2-(phenylthio)butyrate (SM32, 1) were prepared by chiral synthesis and tested for analgesic, cognition-enhancing, and ACh-releasing properties. They show enantioselectivity in some of the tests, the eutomer being related in configuration to R-(+)-hyoscyamine.
