Abstract

Abstract 4-Hydroxy-α-[(3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl)isopropylaminomethyl]-3-(methylsulfonylmethyl)benzyl alcohol having β-adrenergic stimulant activity, particularly as a selective bronchodilator, is prepared from 4-hydroxyacetophenone by conversion to 3-methylsulfonylmethylacetophenone, bromination and conversion of this phenone to the phenylglyoxal and treatment of the resulting glyoxal derivative with 3,4-methylenedioxyphenylisopropylamine followed by simultaneous reduction of the imine and ketone moieties and catalytic hydrogenation to remove the benzyl group.
