Abstract
Described is a process for preparing a racemic or chiral aryloxypropanolamine (1) or arylethanolamine (2) of the formula ##STR1## wherein Ar is aryl, substituted aryl, heteroaryl, or aralkyl and R is alkyl, substituted alkyl, aralkyl, or WB wherein W is a straight or branched chain alkylene of from 1 to about 6 carbon atoms and wherein B is --NR.sub.2 COR.sub.3, --NR.sub.2 CONR.sub.3 R.sub.4, --NR.sub.2 SO.sub.2 R.sub.3, --NR.sub.2 SO.sub.2 NR.sub.3 R.sub.4, or --NR.sub.2 COOR.sub.5, where R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4, and R.sub.5 may be the same or different and may be hydrogen, alkyl, alkoxyalkyl, alkoxyaryl, cycloalkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, aryl, heteroaryl, or aralkyl, except that R.sub.3 and R.sub.5 are not hydrogen when B is --NR.sub.2 SO.sub.2 R.sub.3 or --NR.sub.3 COOR.sub.5, or R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 may together with N form a 5- to 7-membered heterocyclic group. The process can be used to prepare beta-blocking agents, useful in the treatment of cardiac conditions.
