Novel 1,2-diamines based on the mefloquine scaffold prepared in enantiomerically pure forms resemble 9-amino-<i>Cinchona</i> alkaloids. Most effectively, 11-aminomefloquine with an <i>erythro</i> configuration was obtained by conversion of 11-alcohol into azide and hydrogenation. Alkylation of a secondary amine unit was needed to arrive at diastereomeric <i>threo</i>-11-aminomefloquine and to introduce diversity. Most of the substitution reactions of the hydroxyl group to azido group proceeded w ...[more]
