    The enantiomers of 1-methyl-3-(10H-phenothiazine-10-ylmethyl)-1-azoniabicyclo2 ,2,2octane iodide (1) were prepared by chiral chromatographic resolution of the precursor mequitazine (2). The (+)-(S)-enantiomer 1b is 10-fold more potent than (-)-(R)-enantiomer 1a as a histamine antagonist, while the two enantiomers show the same antimuscarinic activity in vitro. The absolute configuration of the more active dextrorotatory isomer has been determined by X-ray analysis. Conformational analysis and molecular modeling suggest that the (+)-(S)-enantiomer can adopt a conformation similar to that attributed to the receptor binding conformers of classical antihistamines.
