PURPOSE: To provide a new ethanobicyclic amine compound and its salt useful for alleviating or preventing nerve degeneration or as therapeutic agents for psychotic disorders, convulsions and cerebral ischemia.
CONSTITUTION: A compound of formula I [R1-R4, Y and Z are each hydrido, hydroxy, an alkyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, etc.; R5-R10 are each hydrido, an alkyl, etc.; R7 and R8 together form oxo; R9 and R10 together form oxo; G is O, S, etc.; m is 1 or 2; p is 0-4; q and r are each 1-5; q+r is 3-10, etc.], e.g. 1-(2-benzobicyclo[2.2.2]octenyl)methylpiperidine. The compound is obtained, e.g. by converting an anthranilate of formula II into the diazonium salt, mixing the diazonium salt with a diene to convert into a compound of formula III, converting the product into an alcohol, oxidizing the alcohol to a ketone and mixing the ketone with an amine.
