Amixetrine (INN) (brand name Somagest; developmental code name CERM-898) is a drug that was formerly marketed in France but is now no longer sold.[1][2] According to various sources it has been said to be an anti-inflammatory, antidepressant, antispasmodic, anticholinergic, antihistamine, and antiserotonergic, but its definitive indications and pharmacology are unclear.[1][2] The drug was first synthesized in 1969 and was introduced in France in 1972.[1][2]

Synthesis

Patent:[3] Reagent:[4]

The treatment of isoamyl alcohol (1) with styrene (2) at -10°C with dropwise addition of tert-Butyl Hypobromite [1611-82-1] gives (2-bromo-1-(isopentyloxy)ethyl)benzene [5452-50-6] (3). Displacement of the halogen leaving group by pyrrolidine completes the synthesis of amixetrine (4).
