Abstract
Tropane derivatives having a high binding affinity and selectivity for dopamine transporters bear, on the tropane backbone either a carboxylic ester or isoxazole moiety, as well as a substituted phenyl moiety. The compounds have utility both as pharmaceutical and as imaging agents, when one or more atoms are radioactive.
