Difemetorex (INN; sold as Cleofil), also known as diphemethoxidine, is a stimulant drug of the piperidine class which was used as an appetite suppressant, but produced intolerable side effects such as insomnia which limited its clinical use.[1][2][3][4][5] It was introduced in France by Ciba-Geigy in 1966 but is now no longer marketed.[6]
Synthesis
Alkylation of desoxypipradrol with ethyleneoxide gives difemetorex.
