Abstract
Attempts to synthesize the antidepressant drug atomoxetine directly by p-TSA‐catalyzed reaction between o‐cresol and N‐methyl‐3‐phenyl‐3‐hydroxypropyl amine in toluene at reflux temperature surprisingly resulted in the formation of ortho‐substituted phenol derivative. The structure is unambiguously confirmed by single crystal X-ray.
