McN 5652, (+/-)
Chemical Name: (6R,10bS)-rel-1,2,3,5,6,10b-Hexahydro-6-[4-(methylthio) phenyl]-pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinoline

Biological Activity:

Potent, high affinity serotonin re-uptake inhibitor that is selective in vivo. In vitro, displays moderate selectivity over noradrenaline and dopamine re-uptake (Ki values are 0.68, 2.9 and 36.8 nM for inhibition of serotonin, noradrenaline and dopamine uptake respectively in rat brain synaptosomes). Potently potentiates 5-HT-induced effects in vivo following oral administration. Biological activity resides predominantly in (+)-enantiomer.
