Destolyl atomoxetine is a drug that belongs to the group of non-selective monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs). It is an ethanol derivative and has been shown to be soluble in water. The synthesis of destolyl atomoxetine starts from the reaction between 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran and ethyl chloroformate. This reaction produces 2,5-dimethoxybenzaldehyde, which is then reacted with 2-(N,N-dimethylamino)ethyl chloride hydrochloride (DMAEC) to produce destolyl atomoxetine. Destolyl atomoxetine has been shown to inhibit the metabolism of dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin in vitro and in vivo models. Destolyl atomoxetine may be used as a treatment for Parkinson's disease.
