The following preferred characteristics may be independently combined to provide further preferred embodiments of this invention: A) R 3 is aryl; B) R 1 is hydrogen; C) R 1 is -OH; D) R 3 is substituted phenyl having 3,4-dichloro substituents; E) R 2 is substituted phenyl having 3,4-dichloro or eta trifluoromethyl substituents; F) n is one; G) the indane ring is saturated; H) R 3 is bicycloaryl; I) R 3 is substituted phenyl having a meta N0 2 substituent; J) R 3 is C 1 -C 4 alkyl; K) R 3 is substituted C 1 -C 6 alkyl wherein the terminal carbon of the alkyl chain is substituted with C0 2 R 4 wherein R 4 is hydrogen, methyl, or ethyl; L) R 1 is OH, n is 1 and the OH group is located at the 2 position of the ring; M) a compound of this invention is used for treating psychosis; N) A compound of Formula I: Further, the present invention contemplates both the cis and trans stereoisomers of the compounds of Formula I. The trans configuration is preferred. The present invention contemplates racemic mixtures as well as the substantially pure enantiomers of the compounds of Formula I. The term "enantiomer" is used herein as commonly used in organic chemistry to denote a compound which rotates the plane of polarization. Thus, the "- enantiomer" rotates the plane of polarized light to the left, and contemplates the levorotary compound of Formula I. The + and - enantiomers can be isolated using classical resolution techniques. One particularly useful reference which describes such methods is JACQUES et. al . ENANTIOMERS, RACEMATES, AND RESOLUTIONS (John Wiley and Sons 1981). Appropriate resolution methods include direct crystallization, entrainment, and crystallization by optically active solvents. Chrisey, L.A. Heterocycles, 267, 30 (1990) . A preferred resolution method is crystallization by an optically active acid or by chiral synthesis using the method of A.I. Meyers. Loewe, M.F. et al . , Tetrahedron Letters, 3291, 26 (1985), Meyers, A.I. et al . , J. Am. Chem. Soc. 4778, 110 (1988) . Preferred optically active acids include ca phorsulfonic and derivatives of tartaric acid. The compounds of the present invention are known to form hydrates and solvates with appropriate solvents. Preferred solvents for the preparation of solvate forms include water, alcohols, tetrahydrofuran, DMF, and DMSO. Preferred alcohols are methanol and ethanol. Other appropriate solvents may be selected based on the size of the solvent molecule. Small solvent molecules are preferred to facilitate the corresponding solvate formation. The solvate or hydrate is typically formed in the course of recrystallization or in the course of salt formation. One useful reference concerning solvates is Sykes, Peter, A Guidebook to Mechanism in Organic Chemistry, 56+, 6th Ed (1986, John Wiley & Sons, New York) . As used herein, the term "solvate" includes hydrate forms, such as monohydrates and dihydrates. The column chromatography procedures used standard flash chro otagraphy techniques. One well-known reference describing appropriate flash chromotagraphy techniques is Still, W.C. Kahn, and Mitra, J. Org. Chem . 1978, 43, 2932. Fractions containing product were generally evaporated under reduced vacuum to provide the product. Optical rotations were obtained using methanol, pyridine, or other suitable solvent. The hydrochloride salt of the particular compound was prepared by placing the free base into diethyl ether. While stirring this ether solution, a solution of HC1 in diethyl ether was added dropwise until the solution became acidic. Alternatively, the ether solution was treated with dry HC1 gas. The maleate salt of the particular compound was prepared by placing the free base in ethyl acetate and treating with maleic acid. The precipitate formed was filtered and dried to provide the corresponding maleate salt of the free base. I. Muscarinic Activity. As used herein the term "malfunctioning of the muscarinic cholinergic system" shall have the meaning accepted by the skilled artisan. For example the term shall refer to, but is not in any way limited to, conditions such as glaucoma, psychosis, schizophrenia or schizophrenifor conditions, depression, sleeping disorders, epilepsy, and gastrointestinal motility disorders. Other such conditions include Alzheimer's Disease and incontinence. The pharmacological properties of the compounds of the invention can be illustrated by determining their capability to inhibit the specific binding of 3 H- Oxotremorine-M ( 3 H-Oxo) . Birdsdall N.J.M., Hulme E.C., and Burgen A.S.V. (1980) . "The Character of Muscarinic Receptors in Different Regions of the Rat Brain". Proc. Roy. Soc. London (Series B) 207,1. 3 H-Oxo labels muscarinic receptor in the CNS (with a preference for agonist domains of the receptors) . Three different sites are labeled by 3 H-Oxo. These sites have affinity of 1.8, 20 and 3000 nM, respectively. Using the present experimental conditions only the high and medium affinity sites are determined. The inhibitory effects of compounds on 3 H-oxo binding reflects the affinity for muscarinic acetylcholine receptors. All preparations are performed at 0- °C unless otherwise indicated. Fresh cortex (0.1-1 g) from male Wistar rats (150-250 g) is homogenized for 5-10 s in 10 mL 20 nM Hepes pH: 7.4, with an Ultra-Turrax homogenizer. The homogenizer is rinsed with 10 mL of buffer and the combined suspension centrifuged for 15 min. at 40,000 x g. The pellet is washed three times with buffer. In each step the pellet is homogenized as before in 2 x 10 mL of buffer and centrifuged for 10 min. at 40,000 x g. The final pellet is homogenized in 20 mM Hepes pH: 7.4 (100 mL per g of original tissue) and used for binding assay. Aliquots of 0.5 mL is added 25 μL of test solution and 25 μL of 3 H-Oxotremorine (1.0 nM, final concentration) mixed and incubated for 30 min. at 25°C. Non-specific binding is determined in triplicate using arecoline (1 μg/mL, final concentration) as the test substance. After incubation samples are added 5 L of ice-cold buffer and poured directly onto Whatman GF/C glass fiber filters under suction and immediately washed 2 times with 5 mL of ice-cold buffer. The amount of radioactivity on the filters are ' determined by conventional liquid scintillation counting. Specific binding is total binding minus non specific binding. Test substances are dissolved in 10 mL water (if necessary heated on a steam-bath for less than 5 min.) at a concentration of 2.2 mg/mL. 25-75% inhibition of specific binding must be obtained before calculation of IC50. The test value will be given as IC 50 (the concentration (nM) of the test substance which inhibits the specific binding of 3 H-oxo by 50%) . IC 50 = (applied test substance concentration) x (C x /C 0 - C x )nM where C σ is specific binding in control assays and C x is the specific binding in the test assay. (The calculations assume normal mass-action kinetics) . Furthermore the pharmacological properties of the compounds of the invention can also be illustrated by determining their capability to inhibit 3 HPRZ (pirenzepine, [N-methyl- 3 H] ) binding to rat cerebral cortex membranes. Pirenzepine binds selectively to subtype of muscarinic receptors. Historically the type is named the Mχ-site, whereas pirenzepine sensitive site would be more appropriate. Although selective for Mχ-sites pirenzepine also interact with M 2 ~sites. All preparations are performed at 0-4 °C unless otherwise indicated. Fresh cortex (0.1-1 9) from male Wistar rats (150-200 g) is homogenized for 5-10 s in 10 L 20 mM Hepes pH: 7.4, with an Ultra-Turrax homogenizer. The homogenizer is rinsed with 2 x 10 mL of buffer and the combined suspension centrifuged for 15 min. at 40,000 x g. The pellet is washed three times with buffer. In each step the pellet is homogenized as before in 3 x 10 mL of buffer and centrifuged for ' 10 min. at 40,000 x g. The final pellet is homogenized in 20 mM Hepes pH: 7.4 (100 mL per g of original tissue) and used for binding assay. Aliquots of 0.5 mL is added 20 μL of test solution and 25 μL of 3 HPRZ (1.0 nM, final cone), mixed and incubated for 60 min. at 20°C. Non-specific binding is determined in triplicate using atropine (1.0 μg/mL, final cone.) as the test substance. After incubation samples are added 5 mL of ice-cold buffer and poured directly onto Whatman GF/C glass fiber filters under suction and immediately washed 2 times with 5 mL of ice- cold buffer. The amount of radioactivity on the filters are determined by conventional liquid scintillation counting. Specific binding is total binding minus non- specific binding. Test substances are dissolved in 10 L water, at a concentration of 0.22 mg/mL. 25-75% inhibition of specific binding must be obtained before calculation of IC50. The test value will be given as IC 50 (the concentration (nM) of the test substance which inhibits the specific binding of 3 HPRZ by 50%) . IC 50 = (applied test substance concentration) x(C x /C 0 - C x )nM where C 0 is specific binding in control assays and C x is the specific binding in the test assay. (The calculations assume normal mass-action kinetics) . Compounds of this invention showed particularly desirable activity using the muscarinic receptor assays. Most compounds were effective at an IC 50 concentration of less than 10 μMolar (no atropine) . The muscarinic effect was confirmed by determining if the effect was blocked by atropine. II. M4 muscarinic receptor binding assay: Cyclic AMP Accumulation in Pertussis Toxin-Treated CHO m4 Cells. CHO Kl cells transfected with human m4 receptors were grown to near confluency in T-150 flasks using Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) containing 10% fetal bovine serum. Cells were detached with 0.05% trypsin, 0.53 mM EDTA, and were suspended in medium containing 100 ng/ml pertussis toxin. Cells were plated at 30,000 cells per well into 96 well plates. Eighteen to twenty hours later the medium was removed and the cells were washed with serum-free medium. Attached cells were incubated at 37 C for one hour after addition of 100 ml of serum free DMEM containing 1 mM 3-isobutyl-l-methylxanthine and 1 M forskolin plus or minus drugs being tested. Incubations were terminated with 200 ml per well of serum free DMEM containing 0.3% triton-X-100. After stopping incubations the plates were allowed to sit for 20 minutes to extract cAMP and samples were then diluted 2.5-fold and were assayed using the scintillation proximity assay of Amersham (Arlington Heights, IL) . Representative results from the M4 assay are as follows : Stimulation of cyclic AMP production in CHO-m 4 cells % Maximum Stimulation Compound Number Compared to Oxotremorine-M 11 34 12 26 13 <20 14 100 15 76 17 56 18 61 19 <20 20 69 21 23 22 <20 23 <20 24 22 25 43 26 <20 27 . <20 28 <20 29 <20 30 <20 31 45 32 <20 33 45 34 45 35 65 36 <20 37 76 38 <20 39 43 40 96 41 <20 44 41 45 <20 46 154 47 <20 57 5 58 74 59 22 60 100 61 39 62 27 63 13 64 52 65 30 66 0 67 7 68 0 69 14 70 18 71 95 72 4 73 11 74 75 6 76 130 77 214 52 97 36 98 73 III. Psychosis Studies. The antipsychotic activity of the presently claimed compounds can be demonstrated in models using well-established procedures. For example the compounds are studied to determine if they .antagonize apomorphine- induced climbing behavioral and hypothermia in mice (Moore, N.A. et al . Psychopharmacology (2), 263-266 (1988), and 96, 539 (1988)) which measures the ability of the compound to prevent the disruption of climbing response produced by 24 hour pre-treatment with N- ethoxycarbonyl-2-ethoxy-l, 2-dihydroquinoline (EEDQ) , a dopamine receptor inactivating agent (Meller et al . Central Dl dopamine receptors, Plenum Press, 1988). and/or inhibite a conditioned avoidance response in rats (ED50 4-7 mg/kg) . The conflict procedure used is based on the method of Geller and Seifter, Psychopharmacologia 1: 482- 492, (1960) . Rats are trained on a multiple schedule consisting of three components. Individual components are as follows: 1) for 9 minutes, lever pressing was reinforced on a variable interval 30 second schedule (VI 30, reward) . This period is signaled by illumination of the houselight alone. 2) During the following 3-minute period, lever presses are recorded but had no programmed consequence (time-out) . 3) Lever pressing is reinforced according to a fixed ratio 10 second food presentation (FR10) for 3 minutes; however, each reinforced response is accompanied by an electric current (0.5 mA) being applied to the grid floor for 500 msec (conflict) . This component is signaled by illumination of the houselight and three cue lights on the front panel. This sequence of three components (reward/time-out/conflict) are presented twice in the same order during the daily 30 minute session. Animals are given extensive training on this schedule until the following criteria had been satisfied: 1) rates of responding during the individual VI30 components do not differ by more than 10%; 2) rates of responding during time-out and conflict are less than 10% of the rate during the VI component; and 3) the above criteria are satisfied for a period of five days. After the training procedure, drug testing is initiated. During this period, the animals are dosed orally with either test compounds or vehicle in a randomized order 60 minutes before testing. At least two drug-free training days occur between test sessions. This test indicates that the compound has anxiolytic properties which are not observed with typical antipsychotic agents. Spealman et al . , J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther., 212:435-440, 1980. Further, the pharmacological profile of the claimed compounds is desirable for use in the treatment of other conditions which are related to the mediation of a uscarinic receptor. Such conditions include for example, Alzheimer's Disease, glaucoma, irritable bowel syndrome, bladder dysfunction and incontinence, treatment of pain, analgesia, Huntington's Disease, epilepsy, Parkinson's Disease, anxiety, and other psychotic conditions as described in the DSM-IV. While it is possible to administer a compound of the invention directly without any formulation, the compounds are preferably employed in the form of a pharmaceutical formulation comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient and at least one compound of the invention. Such compositions contain from about 0.1 percent by weight to about 90.0 percent by weight of a present compound. As such, the present invention also provides pharmaceutical formulations comprising a compound of the invention and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient therefor. In making the compositions of the present invention, the active ingredient is usually mixed with an excipient which can be a carrier, or a diluent or be diluted by a carrier, or enclosed within a carrier which can be in the form of a capsule, sachet, paper or other container. When the carrier serves as a diluent, it can be a solid, semi-solid, or liquid material which acts as a vehicle, excipient, or medium for the active ingredient. Thus, the composition can be in the form of tablets, pills, powders, lozenges, sachets, cachets, elixirs, emulsions, solutions, syrups, suspensions, aerosols (as a solid or in a liquid medium), and soft and hard gelatin capsules. The compounds of the invention may be delivered transdermally, if desired. Transdermal permeation enhancers and delivery systems, including patches and the like, are well known to the skilled artisan. Examples of suitable carriers, excipients, and diluents include lactose, dextrose, sucrose, sorbitol, mannitol, starches, gum acacia, calcium phosphate, alginates, calcium silicate, microcrystalline cellulose, polyvinylpyrrolidone, cellulose, tragacanth, gelatin, syrup, methyl cellulose, methyl- and propylhydroxy- benzoates, talc, magnesium stearate, water, and mineral oil. The formulations may also include wetting agents, emulsifying and suspending agents, preserving agents, sweetening agents or flavoring agents. The formulations of the invention may be formulated so as to provide quick, sustained, or delayed release of the active ingredient after administration to the patient by employing procedures well known in the art. The compounds of this invention may be delivered transdermally using known transdermal delivery systems and excipients. Most preferrably, a compound of this invention is admixed with permeation enhancers including, but not limited to, propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol monolaurate, and azacycloalkan-2-ones, and incorporated into a patch or similar delivery system. Additional excipients including gelling agents, emulsifiers, and buffers may be added to the transdermal formulation as desired. For oral administration, a compound of this invention ideally can be admixed with carriers and diluents and molded into tablets or enclosed in gelatin capsules. The compositions are preferably formulated in a unit dosage form, each dosage containing from about 0.1 to about 500 mg or more, usually about 5 to about 300 g, of the active ingredient. The term "unit dosage form" refers to physically discrete units suitable as unitary dosages for human subjects and other mammals, each unit containing a predetermined quantity of active material calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect in association with a suitable pharmaceutical carrier. In order to more fully illustrate the operation of this invention, the following formulation examples are provided.

To a solution of l-indanone (25 g, 0.189 mol) in concentrated H 2 Sθ 4 (84 ml) at 0°C was added a solution of KNO 3 (8.33 g, 0.0824 mol) in H 2 S0 4 (40 ml) as to maintain an internal temperature below 15°C. After stirring at 0°C for 1 hr. , the reaction mixture was poured into crushed ice and stirred vigorously for 30 min. The suspension was then filtered, air dried, and purified by LC (5% ethyl acetate/toluene) to provide l a (18.90 g, 56%) as a pale yellow solid. 2. A solution of l a (18.90 g, 0.107 mol) in methanol (300ml) was cooled to 0°C and NaBH 4 (4.04g.0.107 mol) was added in several small portions. The reaction was then stirred overnight at 25°C. The solution was quenched at 0°C with methanolic HC1 (200 ml), concentrated under reduced pressure, redissolved in CH C1 2 , washed with H 2 O, and the organic layer reconcentrated to provide the crude alcohol as a brown solid. 3. To a solution of crude alcohol in toluene (300 ml) was added a catalytic amount of p-toluenesulfonic acid and the reaction was refluxed for 1 hr. using a Dean Stark trap to remove the H 2 O. The organic layer was washed with sat'd. NaHC0 3 (3 x 200 ml), dried over MgSθ 4 , solvent removed under vacuum, and the product recrystallized from methanol to afford 3 a (13.41g, 78% over two steps) as a tan solid. 4.

Next, oxalyl chloride (50.75 ml, 0.582 mol) was added via a slow dropwise addition from an addition funnel. After reluxing overnight under N 2 , the solvent was removed under vacuum using a gas dispersion tube. The resin was subsequently washed with anhydrous dichloromethane (3 x 500 ml) . Once the last wash was complete, the resin was dried under vacuum for 2-3 hrs .

After overnight stirring at 25°C, the reaction was neutralized with 4M HC1 in methanol (0.100ml, 0.400 mmol), resin filtered, and the filtate was concentrated under reduced pressure to provide 12 a . Example 4 A 3 gallon stainless steel hydrogenation reactor was charged with 2.79 g (5% wt . load) of 5% Pd/C under a nitrogen purge. The catalyst was then wetted with toluene (25 mL) . To this mixture was added a solution of 1 (55.39 g (0.188 mol) in 3A-EtOH (6 L) . After purging the reactor with nitrogen, the reaction vessel was pressurized to 45 psi with hydrogen and stirred at room temperature for 4.5 h. TLC (Silica, 90/10 CH 2 Cl 2 /MeOH + 1% NH 4 OH) indicated the reaction was complete. The mixture was filtered through Hi-Flo and the filter cake rinsed with CH 2 C1 2 (2 L) . The filtrate was transferred to a 12 L Buchii flask and concentrated in vacuo to afford 2 (47.79 g, 96%) as a white solid. To a solution of 2 (5.0 g, 0.089 mol) in MeOH (50 L) was added dimethylformamide-dimethylacetal (3.77 mL, 0.028 mol).
