Manifaxine
Manifaxine (developmental code name GW-320,659) is a norepinephrine–dopamine reuptake inhibitor developed by GlaxoSmithKline through structural modification of radafaxine, an isomer of hydroxybupropion and one of the active metabolites of bupropion. Manifaxine was researched for treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and obesity Obesity is a medical condition, sometimes considered a disease, in which excess body fat has accumulated to such an extent that it may negatively affect health. People are classified as obese when their body mass index (BMI)—a person's ... and was found to be safe, reasonably effective, and well-tolerated for both applications. However, no results were reported following these initial trials and development was discontinued. Synthesis The Grignard reaction between 3,5-difluorobenzonitrile 4248-63-1(1) and ethylmangensium bromide gives 3,5-difluoropropiophenone 35306-45-5(2). Halogenation with molecular bromine occ ...

Manifaxine Synthesis
Manifaxine (developmental code name GW-320,659) is a norepinephrine–dopamine reuptake inhibitor developed by GlaxoSmithKline through structural modification of radafaxine, an isomer of hydroxybupropion and one of the active metabolites of bupropion. Manifaxine was researched for treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and obesity and was found to be safe, reasonably effective, and well-tolerated for both applications. However, no results were reported following these initial trials and development was discontinued. Synthesis The Grignard reaction between 3,5-difluorobenzonitrile [64248-63-1] (1) and ethylmangensium bromide gives 3,5-difluoropropiophenone [135306-45-5] (2). Halogenation with molecular bromine occurs at the alpha-keto position providing 2-bromo-3',5'-difluoropropiophenone [135306-46-6] (3). Intermolecular ring formation with DL-Alaninol (2-Aminopropanol) [6168-72-5] completed the synthesis of Manifaxine (4). See also * 3,5-Difluoromethcathino ...
