Abstract: Novel trans-isomeric derivatives of 4-phenyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-naphthalenamine are useful as antidepressant agents. These novel compounds act to block the synaptosomal uptake of norepinephrine and serotonin (5-hydroxy-tryptamine), thereby alleviating abnormalities at central receptor sites. The preferred embodiment is the enantiomer trans-(1R)-N-methyl-4-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-naphthalen amine and its pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts.

Abstract: Novel cis-isomeric derivatives of 4-phenyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-naphthalenamine are useful as antidepressant agents.
