Abstract: A series of (R)- and (S)-3-aminomethyl-1-tetralones, conformationally constrained analogues of haloperidol, have been obtained by enzymatic resolution of the corresponding racemic 3-hydroxymethyl-1-tetralones using Pseudomonas fluorescens lipase. Their binding affinities at dopamine D(2) and serotonin 5-HT(2A) and 5-HT(2C) receptors were determined showing in some cases an atypical antipsychotic profile with Meltzer's ratio higher than 1.30.
