## Abstract Die Beziehungen zwischen Struktur und neuropsychotroper Wirkung bei 6 neuen 1,2,3,4‐Tetrahydro‐β‐carbolinen werden untersucht. Die aktivste Verbindung 4b hat ein pharmakologisches Profil, das dem Chlorpromazin ähnelt. Keine der Substanzen hat dopaminerge Eigenschaften.

Abstract
Reaction of tryptamine (1) with 2 and 3 gives the enamino ketones 4a and 5, resp., which on treatment with trifluoroacetic acid lead to the 2‐substituted indoles 8 and 9, respectively. Acylation of 4a followed by reaction with trifluoroacetic acid or a Lewis acid affords the 1,2,3,4‐tetrahydro‐β‐carbolines 7b–e in excellent yields. Treatment of 8 with anhydrides like (CF~3~CO)~2~O also yields the 1,2,3,4‐tetrahydro‐β‐carboline 7f. The trichloromethylcarbonyl group in 7 can easily be converted into an ester moiety by reaction with an alcohol in the presence of K~2~CO~3~.
