Leriglitazone (Hydroxypioglitazone), a metabolite of pioglitazone. Leriglitazone (Hydroxypioglitazone) PioOH is a PPARγ agonist, stabilizes the PPARγ activation function-2 (AF-2) co-activator binding surface and enhances co-activator binding, affording slightly better transcriptional efficacy. Leriglitazone (Hydroxypioglitazone) binds to the PPARγ C-terminal ligand-binding domain (LBD) with Ki of 1.2 μM,induces transcriptional efficacy of the PPARγ (LBD) with EC50 of 680 nM.

Leriglitazone is under investigation in clinical trial NCT03917225 (A Clinical Study to Evaluate the Effect of MIN-102 on the Progression of Friedreich’s Ataxia in Male and Female Patients).

The metabolites of (±)-5-[p-[2-(5-ethyl-2-pyridyl)ethoxy]benzyl]-2, 4-thiazolidinedione (1, pioglitazone), which is a representative insulin-sensitizing agent, were synthesized to confirm their structures and for studies of their pharmacological properties. Of the metabolites identified, a compound hydroxylated at the 2-position of the ethoxy chain (3) and compounds oxygenated at the ethyl side chain attached to the pyridine ring (4, 5) were found to be active, although the potency was slightly lower than that of the parent compound.

Pioglitazone (5-(4-(2-(5-ethyl-2-pyridyl)ethoxy)benzyl)-2,4-thiazolidinedione, 2) is a prototypical antidiabetic thiazolidinedione that had been evaluated for possible clinical development. Metabolites 69 have been identified after dosing of rats and dogs. Ketone 10 has not yet been identified as a metabolite but has been added to the list as a putative metabolite by analogy to alcohol 6 and ketone 7. We have developed improved syntheses of pioglitazone (2) metabolites 69 and the putative metabolite ketone 10. These entities have been compared in the KKAy mouse model of human type-II diabetes to pioglitazone (2). Ketone 10 has proven to be the most potent of these thiazolidinediones in this in vivo assay. When 610 were compared in vitro in the 3T3-L1 cell line to 2, for their ability to augment insulin-stimulated lipogenesis, 10 was again the most potent compound with 67, and 9 roughly equivalent to 2. These data suggest that metabolites 67, and 9 are likely to contribute to the pharmacological activity of pioglitazone (2), as had been previously reported for ciglitazone (1).

Compound 5-[4-[2-(5-(1 -hydroxyethyl)-2-pyridinyl)ethoxy]benzyl]-2,4-thiazolidinedione of formula (1 ) can be prepared according to Scheme 1 (see e.g. J.Med.Chem. 1996, 39(26),5053).

Scheme 1

Scheme 2

Yet another method to prepare mixtures (c) – comprising compound (2) and (4) – and (d) – comprising compounds (3) and (5) – (scheme 3), includes the resolution of the racemic mixture VIII using the already described methods (chiral HPLC separation, enzymatic resolution, chiral resolution, etc) followed by double bond reduction in each of the enantiomers Villa and Vlllb.

Scheme 4

Compounds of formula (2), (3), (4) and (5) may be obtained from mixtures (c) and (d) (Scheme 45) by chiral HPLC separation. Alternatively, the desired enantiomerically pure compounds can be prepared by chiral synthetic procedures known to those skilled in the art (for example: asymmetric hydrogenolysis of the corresponding single isomer of compound VI).

HPLC Method

Column: Symmetry Shield RP-18, 5 μηη (4.6 x 250 mm); wavelength: 210 nm; flow: 1 mL/min; run time: 28 min; mobile phase-gradient: (t/%B): 0/10, 8/10, 12/60, 16/80, 20/80, 24/10, 28/10 [A: Water (potassium dihydrogen o-phosphate (pH~3)), B: Acetonitrile]

A mixture of compounds (2) and (4) (mixture (c)) and a mixture of compounds (3) and (5) (mixture (d)) were prepared according to Scheme 7.

Step 1 : Synthesis of compound VIII: HCI (48 ml, 2N) was added to a solution of compound VI (10 g, 0.024 mol) in methanol (200 ml) and the mixture was heated to reflux. After 4 h of reflux, the reaction mixture was cooled to r.t. and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford a yellow solid. The solid was suspended in water (70 ml) and neutralized using a saturated NaHC03 solution. The resulting pale yellow precipitate was collected by filtration and vacuum dried to afford compound VIII (7.5 g; 84% yield).

ES-MS [M+1]+: 371.0.

Step 2: Chiral prep. HPLC

Compound VIII (1 .0 g) was dissolved in a mixture containing equal volumes of acetonitrile, methanol and dichloromethane; injected (150 μΙ injections) in chiral prep-HPLC column (Chiralpak-IA 250 x 20 mm, 5 micron) and separated [Mobile phase- n-Hexane/0.05% Et3N in EtOH (50:50); flow Rate: 18ml/min; run time: 60 min]. The fractions containing the enantiomers Villa and Vlllb were separately concentrated under reduced pressure to minimum volume and the respective residues were diluted with EtOAc (100 ml), followed by water (50 ml). The resultant organic phases were

dried over anhydrous Na2S04 and concentrated to afford compounds Villa and Vlllb as off-white solids. Enantiomers Villa and Vlllb were isolated but the absolute configuration of each enantiomer has not been determined.

After color of the reaction medium faded, additional quantity of NaBH4 (24 mg, 0.64 mmol) and CoCI2.6H20 (15 mg, 0.064 mmol) were added and stirring was continued at r.t. [additional quantities of CoCI2.6H20 and NaBH4 were added at 12 h intervals till the starting material was consumed, as monitored by LCMS]. After 96 h, the reaction mixture was neutralized with AcOH (pH~7); diluted with water (10 ml) and extracted in EtOAc (3 χ 50 ml). The combined organic extract was dried over anhydrous Na2S04 and concentrated to afford crude compound, which was purified by flash column chromatography (Si02; 4% methanol in CH2CI2) to afford diastereomeric mixture of MIV D-2 (100 mg) as off-white solid.

Example 7: in vitro ADME and toxicological characterization

Protocol: The assays performed include cytochrome P450 inhibition with the different isoforms, microsomal and hepatocyte stability, neurotoxicity in neural cells and hERG safety assays using a patch clamp electrophysiology measurement (FDA Draft Guidance for Industry.

Example 8: The brain plasma ratios of Pioglitazone, MIV, Mill and Mil following oral dosing of a single administration of Pioglitazone at 4.5 mg/kg in male C57BL/6 mice.

The brain-plasma ratio was calculated based on levels of Pioglitazone, MIV, Mill and Mllin plasma and brain quantified at C max (maximal concentration) following oral dosing of a single administration of Pioglitazone at 4.5 mg/kg in male C57BL/6 mice. The percentage brain plasma ratio was 9, 13, 7 and 1 %, respectively, for Pioglitazone, Mil and Mill as shown in the Figure 4. Thus, active metabolites Mill and Mil crossed the BBB at much lower extent than Pioglitazone as it was predicted based on the physicochemical properties of the compounds (see Tablel ). In contrast, unexpectedly metabolite MIV crossed the BBB in a higher percentage than the parent compound Piolgitazone

The calculations of the both indexes (ClogP and QPIogBB) for Pioglitazone and its metabolites Mil and Mill are shown in Table 1 . For both indexes the 2 metabolites are lower than for pioglitazone, suggesting for Mil, and Mill a less favored penetration and distribution within CNS.

https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2018116281A1/enPioglitazone is a “dirty” drug which is converted to many metabolites in vivo. The metabolic pathway of pioglitazone after oral administration has been studied in several animal species and in humans and the metabolites have been described in the literature (see e.g. Sohda et al, Chem. Pharm. Bull., 1995, 43(12), 2168-2172) and Maeshiba et al, Arzneim.-Forsch/Drug Res, 1997, 47 (I), 29-35). At least six metabolites have been identified, named M-I to M-VI. Amongst these metabolites, M-II, M-III and M-IV show some pharmacological activity but are less active than Pioglitazone in diabetic preclinical models.

[0006] Tanis et al. (J. Med. Chem. 39(26 ):5053-5063 (1996)) describe the synthesis of 5-[[4-[2-[5-( 1 -hydroxyethyl)-2-pyridinyl]ethoxy]phenyl]methyl]-2,4-thiazolidinedione as follows:Scheme 1

Figure imgf000003_0002

[0007] Tanis et al. describe that the intermediate 14 was obtained in a 27% yield by reacting compound 13 in an aqueous 37% formaldehyde at 170°C for 6 hours. In this process, 5-[[4- [2-[5-( 1 -hydroxyethyl)-2-pyridinyl]ethoxy]phenyl]methyl]-2,4-thiazolidinedione (compound 6 in Scheme 1) was obtained in a 2.47% overall yield.[0008] WO 2015/150476 Al describes the use of 5-[[4-[2-[5-(l-hydroxyethyl)-2- pyridinyl]ethoxy]phenyl]methyl]-2,4-thiazolidinedione, and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts, in the treatment of central nervous system (CNS) disorders. WO 2015/150476 Al describes that 5-[[4-[2-[5-(l-hydroxyethyl)-2-pyridinyl]ethoxy]phenyl]methyl]-2,4- thiazolidinedione was prepared according to the process of Tanis et al. (supra) where the intermediate corresponding to compound 14 of Tanis et al. was prepared similarly at 160°C for 5 hours providing a 17% yield. The overall yield of 5-[[4-[2-[5-(l-hydroxyethyl)-2- pyridinyl]ethoxy]phenyl]methyl]-2,4-thiazolidinedione was about 1.5%.[0009] Due to the low yield of the intermediate 2-[5-(l-methoxymethoxy-ethyl)pyridine-2- yl]ethanol, the process step for preparing this intermediate is critical for the overall yield of the product, 5-[[4-[2-[5-(l-hydroxyethyl)-2-pyridinyl]ethoxy]phenyl]methyl]-2,4- thiazolidinedione. In addition, the prior art process to obtain compound 14 is difficult to scale because the reaction is carried out in a pressure vessel at a very high temperature and it is a very dirty reaction.[0010] Accordingly, the processes described in the art afford the product 5-[[4-[2-[5-(l- hydroxyethyl)-2-pyridinyl]ethoxy]phenyl]methyl]-2,4-thiazolidinedione only in a very low overall yield and, therefore, they are not suitable for large scale synthesis. In addition, the prior art process employs CH3OCH2CI, a known carcinogen, for protecting the hydroxyl group in the key intermediate. There is a need for an improved process for synthesizing 5- [[4-[2-[5-(l-hydroxyethyl)-2-pyridinyl]ethoxy]phenyl]methyl]-2,4-thiazolidinedione, and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts.Formula I illustrated by Scheme 2:Scheme 2 r

[0256] In another embodiment in Scheme 3, step c, the order of mixing of the reagents can be as follows: 1. n-BuLi, 2. ethylene oxide, and 3. Cul. This order of mixing is described in Example 2.[0257] In the step a, 2,5-dibromopyridine (1) is reacted with i-PrMgCl in THF and then further with acetaldehyde to obtain compound 2. The reaction mixture is preferably filtered over Celite® after the reaction to remove most of the salts. In one embodiment, the addition of acetaldehyde is conducted at a temperature between -15°C and -10°C to control the exothermic reaction. [0258] In the step b, compound 2 is reacted with TBDMS-C1 in the presence of imidazole having DMF as a solvent. The crude product 3 is advantageously purified by a short plug filtration.[0259] In the step c, the hydroxyl protected compound 3 is reacted with ethylene oxide in the presence of n-BuLi and Cu(I)iodide while maintaining the reaction temperature, i.e., the reaction mixture temperature, below -20°C. In one embodiment, the reaction temperature is maintained below -55°C while adding n-BuLi and Cu(I)iodide into the reaction mixture. In another embodiment, the temperature of the reaction mixture is maintained below -55°C while adding n-BuLi, followed by ethylene oxide and then Cu(I)iodide into the reaction mixture. In another embodiment, the temperature of the reaction mixture is maintained below -55°C while adding n-BuLi into the reaction mixture, followed by ethylene oxide. In this embodiment, Cu(I)iodide is added then into the reaction mixture while the reaction mixture temperature is maintained below -20°C, and preferably below -55 °C. The reaction mixture is then allowed to slowly warm to room temperature after the addition of the reagents and stirred at room temperature, e.g., 20-25°C, overnight. This process is described in detail in Example 2. After the reaction, the complexed copper is advantageously removed by washing with 10% ammonia. The crude compound 4 can be purified by column chromatography to give >99% pure product with a yield of about 52%.[0260] The following examples are illustrative, but not limiting, of the methods of the present invention. Suitable modifications and adaptations of the variety of conditions and parameters normally encountered in clinical therapy and which are obvious to those skilled in the art in view of this disclosure are within the spirit and scope of the invention.ExamplesCOMPARATIVE EXAMPLE 1Synthesis of 5-[[4-[2-[5-(l-hydroxyethyl)-2-pyridinyl]ethoxy]phenyl]methyl]- 2,4-thiazolidinedione (9a) according to the process described in WO 2015/150476 Al Scheme 4

After the addition, the reaction mixture was allowed to reach room temperature in 0.5 h and stirred at this temperature for 18 h. Water (7.3 L) was then added and the mixture was mixed well. Once the solids were dissolved, the layers were allowed to settle and the organic layer was separated. This organic phase was washed with water (5.7 L, 2x), followed by washing with a solution of sodium chloride (57 g) in water (5.7 L).

SYN

Synthetic scheme for 1−6. 

Docusate is the common chemical and pharmaceutical name of the anionbis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate, also commonly called dioctyl sulfosuccinate (DOSS).[2][3][4]

Salts of this anion, especially docusate sodium, are widely used in medicine as laxatives and as stool softeners, by mouth or rectally.[1] It is on the World Health Organization’s List of Essential Medicines.[5][6] Some studies claim that docusate is not more effective than a placebo for improving constipation.[7][8][9][10] Other docusate salts with medical use include those of calcium and potassium.[11][1][2]

Docusate salts are also used as food additivesemulsifiersdispersants, and wetting agents, among other uses.[12]

History

Sodium docusate was patented in 1937 by Coleman R. Caryl and Alphons O. Jaeger for American Cyanamid,[3] which commercialized it for many years as a detergent under the brand name Aerosol OT.

Its use for the treatment of constipation was first proposed in 1955 by James L. Wilson and David G. Dickinson,[4] and quicky popularized under the name Doxinate.[13]

Medical use

Constipation

The main medical use of docusate sodium is to treat constipation, acting as a laxative and stool softener. In painful anorectal conditions such as hemorrhoid and anal fissures, it can help avoid pain caused by straining during bowel movements.

When administered by mouth, a bowel movement often occurs in 1 to 3 days,[1] while rectal use may be effective within 20 minutes.[14]

Sodium docusate is recommended as a stool softener for children.[1]

However, its effectiveness for constipation is poorly supported by evidence.[7][8] Multiple studies have found docusate to be no more effective than a placebo for improving constipation.[7][8][9][10] Others have found it to be less useful for the treatment of chronic constipation than psyllium.[10][15][16]

The medication may be given to people who are receiving opioid medication, although prolonged use may cause irritation of the gastrointestinal tract.[10][16]

Other medical uses

Docusate sodium, when used with ear syringing, may help with earwax removal, particularly in the case of impaction.[17]

Sodium docusate is also used as a lubricant in the production of tablets and as an emulsifier in topical preparations and other suspensions.[18]

Precautions and contraindications

Docusate sodium is approved and recommended as safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding.[19][20]

Docusate is not recommended in people with appendicitisacute abdomen, or ileus.[16]

When taken by mouth it should be ingested with plenty of water.

Side effects

Side effects are uncommon and typically mild,[1] and may include stomach pain, abdominal cramps or diarrhea,[1] Efficacy decreases with long-term use, and may cause poor bowel function.[11]

Serious allergic reactions may occur with the drug. The most severe side effect of docusate, although very rare, is rectal bleeding.[21]

Interactions

Docusate might increase resorption of other drugs, for example, dantron (1,8-dihydroxyanthraquinone).[16]

Mechanism of action

Docusate sodium works by allowing more water to be absorbed by the stool.[11][22]

Docusate does not stay in the gastrointestinal tract, but is absorbed into the bloodstream and excreted via the gallbladder[16] after undergoing extensive metabolism.

The effect of docusate may not necessarily be all due to its surfactant properties. Perfusion studies suggest that docusate inhibits fluid absorption or stimulates secretion in the portion of the small intestine known as the jejunum.

Pharmaceutical brand names

In the U.S., docusate sodium for pharmaceutical use is available under multiple brand names: Aqualax, Calube, Colace, Colace Micro-Enema, Correctol Softgel Extra Gentle, DC-240, Dialose, Diocto, Dioctocal, Dioctosoftez, Dioctyn, Dionex, Doc-Q-Lace, Docu Soft, Docucal, Doculax, Docusoft S, DOK, DOS, Doss-Relief, DSS, Dulcolax – Stool Softener (not to be confused with another drug marketed under the Dulcolax brand, bisacodyl, which is a stimulant laxative), Ex-Lax Stool Softener, Fleet Sof-Lax, Genasoft, Kasof, Laxa-basic, Modane Soft, Octycine-100, Pedia-Lax, Preferred Plus Pharmacy Stool Softener, Regulax SS, Sulfalax Calcium, Sur-Q-Lax, Surfak Stool Softener, and Therevac-SB. Generic preparations are also available.

In the UK, dioctyl sodium sulfosuccinate is sold under the brand name Docusol (Typharm Ltd) and DulcoEase (Boehringer Ingelheim).

In Australia, dioctyl sodium sulfosuccinate is sold as Coloxyl and Coloxyl with senna.

In India, preparations include Laxatin by Alembic, Doslax by Raptakos Laboratories, Cellubril by AstraZeneca, and Laxicon by Stadmed.

Other uses

Dioctyl sodium sulfosuccinate is used as a surfactant in a wide range of applications, often under the name Aerosol-OT.[4][23] It is unusual in that it is able to form microemulsions without the use of co-surfactants, and it has a rich variety of aqueous-phase behavior including multiple liquid crystalline phases.[24]

Food additive

Dioctyl sodium sulfosuccinate has been approved by the US FDA as a “generally recognized as safe” (GRAS) additive.[25] It is used in a variety of food products, as a surface active agent, stabilizerthickenerwetting agent, processing aid, solubilizing agentemulsifier, and dispersant. The highest amount found in food products is 0.5% by weight, which include pasteurized cheese spreads, cream cheeses and salad dressings.[26] The FDA also approved its use as a wetting agent or solubilizer for flavoring agents in carbonated and non-carbonated drinks at levels up to 10 parts per million.[25]

Microencapsulation

Sodium docusate is the most widely used surfactant in reverse micelleencapsulation studies.[27]

Non-medical brand names

As a surfactant, docusate sodium is or has been commercialized under many brand names, including DSSj Aerosol OT, Alphasol OT, Colace, Complemix, Coprol, Dioctylal, Dioctyl-Medo Forte, Diotilan, Diovac, Disonate, Doxinate, Doxol, Dulsivac, Molatoc, Molofac, Nevax, Norval, Regutol, Softili, Solusol, Sulfimel DOS, Vatsol OT, Velmol, and Waxsol[28]

Chemistry

Structure and properties

The structural formula of the docusate anion is R−O−C(=O)−CH(SO−
3)−CH
2−C(=O)−O−R, where R is the 2-ethylhexyl groupH
3C−(CH
2)
3−C(−CH
2−CH
3)H−CH
2−. The conjugate acid can be described as the twofold carboxylate ester of sulfosuccinic acid with 2-ethylhexanol.

The compound is a white, wax-like, plastic solid, with an odor suggestive of octyl alcohol. It starts to decompose at about 220 °C.[28]

Solubility of dioctyl sodium sulfosuccinate in water is 14 g/L at 25 °C, increasing to 55 g/L at 70 °C.[28] Solubility is better in less polar solvents: 1:30 in ethanol, 1:1 in chloroform and diethylether, and practically unlimited in petroleum ether (25 °C). It also is highly soluble in glycerol, although this is a rather polar solvent. It is also highly soluble in xyleneoleic acidacetonediacetone alcoholmethanolisopropanol2-butanolmethyl acetateethyl acetatefurfurol, and vegetable oils.[28]

The ester groups are easily cleaved under basic conditions, but are stable against acids.[16]

Synthesis

Sodium dioctyl sulfosuccinate can be obtained by treating dioctyl maleate with sodium bisulfite. The bisulfite anion adds to the double bond:−CH=CH− + HSO−
3 → −CH(−SO−
3)−CH
2−

Toxicity

Ingestion may cause the side effects described above, such as diarrhea, intestinal bloating, and occasionally cramping pains. Dioctyl sodium sulfosuccinate is not known to be carcinogenicmutagenic, or teratogenic.[29]

Marine species

Dioctyl sodium sulfosuccinate is of low toxicity for crustaceans such as the hermit crabClibanarius erythropus and the shrimp Crangon crangon. Toxicity for molluscs varies widely, with 48-hour LD50 found between 5 mg/l for the common limpet and 100 mg/l for the common periwinkle. Various species of phytoplankton have an LD50 around 8 mg/l.

In a 2010 study, dioctyl sodium sulfosuccinate exhibited higher toxicity against bacteria (Vibrio fischeriAnabaena sp.) and algae (Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata) than did a number of fluorinated surfactants (PFOSPFOA, or PFBS). Measuring bioluminescence inhibition of the bacteria and growth inhibition of the algae, the LD50 were in the range of 43–75 mg/l. Combinations of the fluorinated compounds with dioctyl sodium sulfosuccinate showed mid to highly synergistic effects in most settings, meaning that such combinations are significantly more toxic than the individual substances.[30]

Freshwater species

The substance is highly toxic for rainbow trout with a median lethal concentration (LC50) of 0.56 mg/l after 48 hours for the pure substance. It is only slightly to moderately toxic for rainbow trout fingerlings, and slightly toxic for harlequin rasboras (LC50 27 mg/l of a 60% formulation after 48 hours).

Procedure: (1st week)A: Synthesis of 2,6-Dimethylaniline via Reduction of 2,6-Dimethylnitrobenzene 1. Dissolve1.0 g of 2,6-dimethylnitrobenzene in 10 mL of glacial acetic acid in a 50 mL Erlenmeyer flask. 2. In a 25 mL flask, dissolve 4.6 grams of SnCl2 · 2H2O in 8 mL of concentrated HCl, inside the fume hood. 3. Add the SnCl2 solution in one portion to the nitroxylene solution, magnetically swirl and mix, and let the mixture stand for 15 minutes. 4. Cool the mixture and collect the crystalline salt (dimethylaniline in the salt form: C6H5NH3 +Cl- ) in a Buchner funnel. 5. Transfer the moist crystals to an Erlenmeyer flask, add 5-10 mL of water, and make the solution strongly basic (to remove the acid and change C6H5NH3 +Clback intoC6H5NH2) by adding 30% KOH solution (12 to 17 mL required). 6. After cooling extract with three 10 mL portions of ether, rinse the ether extracts twice with 10 mL of water, and dry over K2CO3. 7. Evaporate the dried and filtered solution to an oil, transfer and rinse into a 50 mL Erlenmeyer flask, complete evaporation, weigh, and calculate the %yield of 2,6-dimethylaniline. 
B: Synthesis of α-Chloro-2,6-dimethylacetanilide (prepare for a steam bath ahead of time) 1. For every 7 grams (from this step on, you need to calculate proportionally how much you need to add according to the actual weight that you got) of dimethylaniline from the previous step, add 50 mL of glacial acetic acid, and 7.2 g (or 5.2 mL) of chloroacetyl chloride, in that order. 2. Warm the solution on a steam bath to (40–50)ºC, remove, and add a solution of 1 gram of sodium acetate in 100 mL of water. 3. Cool the mixture and collect the product in a Buchner funnel. 4. Transfer the product to a disk of medium–sized filter paper, finely divide it with a spatula, and let air dry until the next laboratory period. 5. Upon drying, measure the mass and the melting point. Also, calculate the % yield.

D. Synthesis of the bisulfate salt of lidocaine 1. Dissolve the lidocaine in ether (10 mL per gram of lidocaine) and add 2 mL of 2.2 M sulfuric acid in ethanol per gram of lidocaine. 2. Stir and scratch with a glass rod to mix and induce crystallization. 3. Dilute the mixture with an equal volume of acetone to aid filtration and collect the salt in a small Buchner funnel. 4. Rinse the solid on the funnel with a few milliliters of acetone and air dry and weigh the product. 5. Calculate the % yield of this step. *** Overall % Yield The overall % YCLIPhttp://home.sandiego.edu/~khuong/chem302L/Handouts/Lidocaine_handout_Su07.pdfSynthetic Strategy Lidocaine will be prepared via a three-step linear synthesis starting from 2,6-dimethylnitrobenzene. The reduction of 2,6-dimethylnitrobenzene 1 with three equivalents of stannous chloride (SnCl2) yields the ammonium salt 2. It is very important that the reaction mixture is strongly acidic during this reaction because the reduction of nitrobenzene using different reducing reagents and conditions can afford a variety of functional groups: nitroso, hydroxylamine (zinc dust, pH 4), azoxy (sodium arsenite), azo (zinc, weakly basic), or hydrazo (zinc, strongly basic). In industrial settings, often iron or tin with hydrochloric acid is used instead of stannous chloride because iron and tin are cheaper, but the reduction takes much longer. In the workup portion of the reaction, the ammonium salt 2 is reacted with an aqueous potassium hydroxide solution, liberating the free 2,6-dimethylaniline 3 in an acid-base reaction.

The reaction of 3 with the bifunctional α-chloroacetyl chloride leads to α-chloro-2,6-dimethylacetanilide 4. A slight excess of the acid chloride is used to ensure the complete conversion of the amine to the amide. The formation of the amide is a result of the significantly higher reactivity (~106 times) of the acyl chloride over the alkyl chloride. The addition of sodium acetate solution avoids the formation of HCl which would protonate unreacted 3 causing it to co-precipitate with the desired product 4.

str1

In the last step, diethylamine performs a nucleophilic substitution (SN2) on the remaining alkyl chloride. Diethylamine serves both as a nucleophile to form lidocaine 5, and as acid scavenger, leading to formation of NH2Et2 + Cl- in this reaction. Since diethylamine is not a very strong nucleophile, it is used in excess here to improve the yield and speed up the reaction. The unreacted amine is later removed by extraction with water. The aqueous extraction of lidocaine with acid separates the unreacted chloroanilide 4 and the lidocaine. After addition of a strong base like aqueous potassium hydroxide, crude lidocaine is obtained.

Procedure Synthesis of 2,6-dimethylaniline (3) Dissolve 15 g of SnCl2•2H2O in 27 mL of concentrated hydrochloric acid. If necessary, heat the mixture gently. Add this solution in one portion to a solution of 3 mL of 2,6-dimethylnitrobenzene in 34 mL of glacial acetic acid. Swirl the resulting mixture and then allow it to stand for 15 minutes before placing the mixture in an ice bath. Collect the formed precipitate by vacuum filtration. Place the wet precipitate obtained above in a beaker and add 20 mL of water. Neutralize the acidic mixture by carefully adding an 8 M aqueous potassium hydroxide with continuous stirring until basic to litmus. Place the mixture in an ice bath. Upon cooling to room temperature, extract the mixture three times with diethyl ether. Combine the organic layers and wash them twice with water and once with brine. Dry the organic layer over anhydrous potassium carbonate. Decant away from the drying agent and evaporate the diethyl ether from a dry, preweighed flask using a rotary evaporator. The oily residue will be your crude product 3. Obtain and record the following information: 1. crude product description (co2. crude weight/percent yieldSynthesis of α-chloro-2,6-dimethylacetanilide (4) Dissolve 3 in 17 mL of glacial acetic acid. Add 1.1 equivalents (based on the moles of 3) of α-chloroacetyl chloride to this solution. Heat the solution to 40-50 o C for ten minutes to complete the reaction. Upon cooling, add a solution of ~3.3 g sodium acetate trihydrate in 67 mL water and then place the resulting mixture in an ice bath. Collect the precipitate by vacuum filtration. Rinse the filter cake with copious amounts of water in order to remove the acetic acid. It is important that the product be completely free of acetic acid after this step (why?). The pH of the individual water rinses can be checked with litmus paper to determine if the product is acid free. Allow for the product to air-dry on a watch glass until the next meeting. There is a reasonable chance that you will not obtain a precipitate as described above. If this is the case, you can try “seeding” using a small sample of authentic product from a classmate. If this does not work, check the TLC to be sure that you have formed product and devise an extractive workup that will separate the unreacted aniline 3 from the desired product 4. (Make sure you understand how to do this even if you obtain a precipitate in the first place). After the aqueous workup and following removal of solvent, you should obtain a solid. If not, check the TLC, using a sample of authentic product from a classmate as a standard. If the product appears relatively pure, you can continue even though the material is not a solid. Obtain and record the following information: 1. crude product description (color, physical state, etc.) 2. crude weight/percent yield 3. mp (if a solid) 
4. TLC analysis 5. IR (check for presence of amide functional group) Synthesis of lidocaine; α-(N,N-diethylamino)-2,6-dimethylacetanilide (5). In a round bottom flask, dissolve α-chloro-2,6-dimethylacetanilide 4 in 17 mL of toluene. Before continuing, spot several (4 to 5) TLC plates in advance with this solution of 4. Provide three lanes and spot the 4 on the “SM” and “CO-SPOT” lanes. You will use these plates to monitor the progress of this reaction. Add three equivalents of diethylamine to the round bottom flask, and reflux the mixture vigorously until the reaction is complete. The amount of time required for complete reaction depends on many factors but it will likely take anywhere from more than a few minutes up to several hours. If the reaction is not complete when your lab period ends, you can stopper the reaction and reflux it for additional time at the next period. Usually a white precipitate forms during the reflux. Upon cooling, transfer the reaction mixture to a separatory funnel and extract the mixture three times with water. Next, extract the organic layer with two portions of 3 M hydrochloric acid. Cool the combined acidic aqueous extracts in an ice bath and then add 8 M aqueous potassium hydroxide slowly until the mixture is strongly basic again. The formation of a thin, dark yellow oily layer on top or a white solid is observed at this point. Place the mixture in an ice bath. Once the mixture is chilled, try to initiate the crystallization of the final product if no solid has formed at this point. Collect the obtained precipitate by filtration using a Büchner funnel. Wash it with twice with water and then press it as dry as possible.

Lidocaine is an antiarrhythmic medicine and also serves as a local anaesthetic drug. It is utilized in topical application to relieve pain, burning and itching sensation caused from skin inflammations. This drug is mainly used for minor surgeries. Figure 1 shows the 1H NMR spectrum of 200 mM lidocaine in CDCl3.

1H NMR Relaxation

Figures 2, 3 and 4 show the relaxation time measurements. It can be seen that the relaxation times are shortest for the CH2 protons and longest for the CH protons. The first data point amplitude increases with the number of protons for the related peak.

2D COSY

Figure 4 shows the 2D COSY spectrum where two spin systems (6,7,8) to (10,11) can be clearly seen. For instance, the methyl groups at 10 and 11 positions bond to aromatic protons at 6 and 8 positions, while the methyl groups at 16 and 17 positions bond to the ethylene groups at 14 and 15 positions. No coupling occurs at positions (6,7,8) to (16,17) or (14,15).

2D Homonuclear J-Resolved Spectroscopy

The chemical shift in the 2D homonuclear j-resolved spectrum appears along the direct (f2) direction and the effects of coupling between protons appear along the indirect (f1) dimension. This enables the assignment of chemical shifts of multiplets and may help in measuring unresolved couplings. Also, a decoupled 1D proton spectrum is produced by the projection along the f1 dimension. The 2D homonuclear j-resolved spectrum of lidocaine, plus the 1D proton spectrum (blue line) are shown in Figure 5.

Homonuclear j-resolved spectrum of 200 mM lidocaine in CDCl3

Figure 5. Homonuclear j-resolved spectrum of 200 mM lidocaine in CDCl3. The multiplet splitting frequencies for different couplings are colour- coded.

The projection which is vertical reveals how the multiplets disintegrate into a single peak, which makes the 1D spectrum more simplified. Peak multiplicities are produced by vertical traces from peaks in the 2D spectrum and help in determining the frequencies of proton-proton coupling. When coupling frequencies are compared between different peaks, information can be obtained regarding which peaks are bonded to each other. Also, Information regarding the coupling strength can be obtained from the size of the coupling frequencies. These couplings substantiate the results of the COSY experiment.

However, in this experiment, the effects of second order coupling appear in the f1 direction as additional peaks which are equidistant from the coupling partners detached from the zero frequency in the f1 dimension. These peaks provide proof of second order coupling partners, but are generally considered as artifacts. Figure 6 shows these coupling partners and additional peaks marked by colour-coded arrows and ellipses.

1D 13C Spectra

Figure 7 shows the 13C NMR spectra of 1 M lidocaine in CDCl3. Since the 1D Carbon experiment is highly susceptible to the 13C nuclei in the specimen, it easily and clearly resolves 9 resonances. In this experiment, only carbons coupled to protons are seen.

Carbon spectra of 1 M lidocaine in CDCl3.

Figure 7. Carbon spectra of 1 M lidocaine in CDCl3.

Given the fact that the DEPT spectra do not display the peaks at 170 and 135ppm, they must be part of quaternary carbons. The DEPT-135 and the DEPT-45 experiments provide signals of CH3, CH2 and CH groups, while the DEPT-90 experiment provides only the signal of CH groups. However, in DEPT-135 the CH2 groups occur as negative peaks. It can thus be summed up that the peaks between 45 and 60ppm belong to ethylene groups; the peaks between 10 and 20ppm are part of the methyl groups; and the peaks between 125 and 130ppm belong to methyne groups. A similar study can be carried out on the C and CH peaks.

Heteronuclear Correlation

The Heteronuclear Correlation (HETCOR) experiment identifies the proton signal that appears along the indirect dimension and the carbon signal along the direct dimension. Figure 8 shows the HETCOR spectrum of 1 M lidocaine in CDCl3. in the 2D spectrum, the peaks reveal which proton is attached to which carbon. This experiment helps in resolving assignment uncertainty from the ID carbon spectra.

Heteronuclear Multiple Quantum Coherence

Heteronuclear Multiple Quantum Coherence (HMQC) is similar to the HETCOR experiment and is utilized to associate proton resonances to the carbons that are coupled directly to those protons. But in the HMQC experiment, the proton signal appears along the direct dimension and the carbon signal along the indirect dimension. Figure 9 shows the HMQC spectrum of 1 M lidocaine in CDCl3. In the 2D spectrum, the peaks show which proton is attached to which carbon. For conclusive peak assignment, a similar study with the HETCOR spectrum can be carried out.

HMQC spectrum of 1 M lidocaine in CDCl3.

Figure 9. HMQC spectrum of 1 M lidocaine in CDCl3.

Heteronuclear Multiple Bond Correlation

The Heteronuclear Multiple Bond Correlation (HMBC) experiment can be employed to achieve long-range correlations of proton and carbon via two or three bond couplings. Similar to the HMQC experiment, the proton signal appears along the direct dimension and the carbon signal along the indirect dimension. Figure 10 shows the HMBC spectrum of 1 M lidocaine in CDCl3.

HMBC spectrum of 1 M lidocaine in CDCl3, with some of the long-range couplings marked.

Figure 10. HMBC spectrum of 1 M lidocaine in CDCl3, with some of the long-range couplings marked.

The couplings amid the molecular positions appear analogous to the couplings seen in the COSY spectrum; however, the HMBC also displays couplings to quaternary carbons, which are not seen either in HMQC or COSY experiments. In addition, there is a correlation between protons and carbons. This is attributed to three-bond bonding from 14 and 15 and vice versa, as shown in light green in Figure 1.

REFER TO THE SCHEME FOR THE SYNTHESIS OF LIDOCAINE SHOWN BELOW © NH, CI q NH2 avec NO2 SnCl2/ HCI CH3COOH KOH CH3COOH 2 3 1 2
  1. The present synthesis of lidocaine begins with 2,6-dimethylnitrobenzene (1). This compound can be made from 1,3-dimethylbenzene, also known as m-xylene, which is more difficult to make. Luckily, m-xylene is commercially available, so a synthesis of 1 from m-xylene is a practical alternative if one wants to begin the synthesis of lidocaine with m-xylene. Suppose you want to prepare 1 from m-xylene. Show with chemical equations the reagents that you would use, and the possible isomers that would result.

2. The practical transformation of 1 into 3 is carried out by the following scheme:

1 in glacial CH3COOH + SnCl2 in conc. HCI vacuum filtration 2 as a solid precipitate dissolve in aq. KOH to pH > 10 3+ impuri

Suppose you dissolve the solid precipitate of 2 in water, but forget to include the KOH in the second step above. What would happen after the extraction with ether? Give your answer in terms of what would be found in the ether layer, and in the aqueous layer.

3. Suppose you’re out of acetic acid (CH3COOH) and decide to use ethanol (CH3 CH2OH) as the solvent in the transformation of 3 into 4. Would this be a wise choice, and why?

NH, CI ZI Cl CH2COOH 3 4

4.The amide 4 has a nitrogen attached to the benzene ring, and a chlorine attached to a primary carbon. Yet, it doesn’t react with itself in a nucleophilic displacement. Why is the nitrogen in the amide not nucleophilic? Give your answer in terms of the resonance forms of amides in general:

H N. ? NH2

5. In the reaction below, what factors come into play to favor attack of the aniline 3 on the carbonyl carbon of the acid chloride (carbon 1 in red), rather than at the a-carbon (carbon 2 in red)?

H N. NH2 1 cl 2 cl 3 4

6. Before carrying out the transformation below, compound 4 and the glassware used must be oven-dried. What would happen if the reaction was attempted using wet 4?

H N. H N. N H Cl N toluene 4 5

7.In the reaction below, what factors come into play to favor attack of diethylamine on the a-carbon (carbon 1 in red), rather than on the amide C=O carbon (carbon 2 in red)?

ZI N IZ: IZ LO

8. In the reaction below, why does the amine nitrogen (#1 in red) undergo protonation with H2SO4 preferentially over the amide nitrogen (#2 in red)? In other words, why is nitrogen 1 basic, but nitrogen 2 is not?

H2SO4 HSO4 5

9.Lidocaine and other drugs containing amino groups are usually marketed as their hydrochloride or hydrogen sulfate salts, rather than as “free amines.” Provide two reasons why this practice makes sense.

10.Although lidocaine is marketed as its hydrochloride salt, it doesn’t exhibit the same level of physiological activity as the free amine. The free amine is more lipophilic and diffuses across a neuron cell membrane more rapidly than the ionic salt, resulting in a more rapid onset of anesthesia. Therefore, sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) is added to a solution of lidocaine prior to injection. How does the addition of sodium bicarbonate promote a faster anesthetic effect?

Lidocaine, also known as lignocaine and sold under the brand name Xylocaine among others, is a local anesthetic of the amino amide type. It is also used to treat ventricular tachycardia.[7][8] When used for local anaesthesia or in nerve blocks, lidocaine typically begins working within several minutes and lasts for half an hour to three hours.[8][9] Lidocaine mixtures may also be applied directly to the skin or mucous membranes to numb the area.[8] It is often used mixed with a small amount of adrenaline (epinephrine) to prolong its local effects and to decrease bleeding.[8]

If injected intravenously, it may cause cerebral effects such as confusion, changes in vision, numbness, tingling, and vomiting.[7] It can cause low blood pressure and an irregular heart rate.[7] There are concerns that injecting it into a joint can cause problems with the cartilage.[8] It appears to be generally safe for use in pregnancy.[7] A lower dose may be required in those with liver problems.[7] It is generally safe to use in those allergic to tetracaine or benzocaine.[8] Lidocaine is an antiarrhythmic medication of the class Ib type.[7] This means it works by blocking sodium channels and thus decreasing the rate of contractions of the heart.[7] When injected near nerves, the nerves cannot conduct signals to or from the brain.[8]

Lidocaine was discovered in 1946 and went on sale in 1948.[10] It is on the World Health Organization’s List of Essential Medicines.[11] It is available as a generic medication.[8][12] In 2018, it was the 233rd most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than 2 million prescriptions.[13][14]

Medical uses

Local numbing agent

The efficacy profile of lidocaine as a local anaesthetic is characterized by a rapid onset of action and intermediate duration of efficacy. Therefore, lidocaine is suitable for infiltration, block, and surface anaesthesia. Longer-acting substances such as bupivacaine are sometimes given preference for spinal and epidural anaesthesias; lidocaine, though, has the advantage of a rapid onset of action. Adrenaline vasoconstricts arteries, reducing bleeding and also delaying the resorption of lidocaine, almost doubling the duration of anaesthesia.

Lidocaine is one of the most commonly used local anaesthetics in dentistry. It can be administered in multiple ways, most often as a nerve block or infiltration, depending on the type of treatment carried out and the area of the mouth worked on.[15]

For surface anaesthesia, several formulations can be used for endoscopies, before intubations, etc. Buffering the pH of lidocaine makes local numbing less painful.[16] Lidocaine drops can be used on the eyes for short ophthalmic procedures. There is tentative evidence for topical lidocaine for neuropathic pain and skin graft donor site pain.[17][18] As a local numbing agent, it is used for the treatment of premature ejaculation.[19]

An adhesive transdermal patch containing a 5% concentration of lidocaine in a hydrogel bandage, is approved by the US FDA for reducing nerve pain caused by shingles.[20] The transdermal patch is also used for pain from other causes, such as compressed nerves and persistent nerve pain after some surgeries.

Heart arrhythmia

Lidocaine is also the most important class-1b antiarrhythmic drug; it is used intravenously for the treatment of ventricular arrhythmias (for acute myocardial infarctiondigoxin poisoning, cardioversion, or cardiac catheterization) if amiodarone is not available or contraindicated. Lidocaine should be given for this indication after defibrillation, CPR, and vasopressors have been initiated. A routine preventive dose is no longer recommended after a myocardial infarction as the overall benefit is not convincing.[21]

Epilepsy

A 2013 review on treatment for neonatal seizures recommended intravenous lidocaine as a second-line treatment, if phenobarbital fails to stop seizures.[22]

Other

Intravenous lidocaine infusions are also used to treat chronic pain and acute surgical pain as an opiate sparing technique. The quality of evidence for this use is poor so it is difficult to compare it to placebo or an epidural.[23]

Inhaled lidocaine can be used as a cough suppressor acting peripherally to reduce the cough reflex. This application can be implemented as a safety and comfort measure for patients who have to be intubated, as it reduces the incidence of coughing and any tracheal damage it might cause when emerging from anaesthesia.[24]

Lidocaine, along with ethanolammonia, and acetic acid, may also help in treating jellyfish stings, both numbing the affected area and preventing further nematocyst discharge.[25][26]

For gastritis, drinking a viscous lidocaine formulation may help with the pain.[27]

Adverse effects

Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are rare when lidocaine is used as a local anesthetic and is administered correctly. Most ADRs associated with lidocaine for anesthesia relate to administration technique (resulting in systemic exposure) or pharmacological effects of anesthesia, and allergic reactions only rarely occur.[28] Systemic exposure to excessive quantities of lidocaine mainly result in central nervous system (CNS) and cardiovascular effects – CNS effects usually occur at lower blood plasma concentrations and additional cardiovascular effects present at higher concentrations, though cardiovascular collapse may also occur with low concentrations. ADRs by system are:

  • CNS excitation: nervousness, agitation, anxiety, apprehension, tingling around the mouth (circumoral paraesthesia), headache, hyperesthesia, tremor, dizziness, pupillary changes, psychosis, euphoria, hallucinations, and seizures
  • CNS depression with increasingly heavier exposure: drowsiness, lethargy, slurred speech, hypoesthesia, confusion, disorientation, loss of consciousness, respiratory depression and apnoea.
  • Cardiovascular: hypotensionbradycardiaarrhythmias, flushing, venous insufficiency, increased defibrillator threshold, edema, and/or cardiac arrest – some of which may be due to hypoxemia secondary to respiratory depression.[29]
  • Respiratory: bronchospasm, dyspnea, respiratory depression or arrest
  • Gastrointestinal: metallic taste, nausea, vomiting
  • Ears: tinnitus
  • Eyes: local burning, conjunctival hyperemia, corneal epithelial changes/ulceration, diplopia, visual changes (opacification)
  • Skin: itching, depigmentation, rash, urticaria, edema, angioedema, bruising, inflammation of the vein at the injection site, irritation of the skin when applied topically
  • Blood: methemoglobinemia
  • Allergy

ADRs associated with the use of intravenous lidocaine are similar to toxic effects from systemic exposure above. These are dose-related and more frequent at high infusion rates (≥3 mg/min). Common ADRs include: headache, dizziness, drowsiness, confusion, visual disturbances, tinnitus, tremor, and/or paraesthesia. Infrequent ADRs associated with the use of lidocaine include: hypotensionbradycardiaarrhythmiascardiac arrest, muscle twitching, seizurescoma, and/or respiratory depression.[29]

It is generally safe to use lidocaine with vasoconstrictor such as adrenaline, including in regions such as the nose, ears, fingers, and toes.[30] While concerns of tissue death if used in these areas have been raised, evidence does not support these concerns.[30]

Interactions

Any drugs that are also ligands of CYP3A4 and CYP1A2 can potentially increase serum levels and potential for toxicity or decrease serum levels and the efficacy, depending on whether they induce or inhibit the enzymes, respectively. Drugs that may increase the chance of methemoglobinemia should also be considered carefully. Dronedarone and liposomal morphine are both absolutely a contraindication, as they may increase the serum levels, but hundreds of other drugs require monitoring for interaction.[31]

Contraindications

Absolute contraindications for the use of lidocaine include:

Exercise caution in patients with any of these:

Overdosage

Overdoses of lidocaine may result from excessive administration by topical or parenteral routes, accidental oral ingestion of topical preparations by children (who are more susceptible to overdose), accidental intravenous (rather than subcutaneous, intrathecal, or paracervical) injection, or from prolonged use of subcutaneous infiltration anesthesia during cosmetic surgery.

Such overdoses have often led to severe toxicity or death in both children and adults. Lidocaine and its two major metabolites may be quantified in blood, plasma, or serum to confirm the diagnosis in potential poisoning victims or to assist forensic investigation in a case of fatal overdose.

Lidocaine is often given intravenously as an antiarrhythmic agent in critical cardiac-care situations.[37] Treatment with intravenous lipid emulsions (used for parenteral feeding) to reverse the effects of local anaesthetic toxicity is becoming more common.[38]

Postarthroscopic glenohumeral chondrolysis

Lidocaine in large amounts may be toxic to cartilage and intra-articular infusions can lead to postarthroscopic glenohumeral chondrolysis.[39]

Pharmacology

Mechanism of action

Lidocaine alters signal conduction in neurons by prolonging the inactivation of the fast voltage-gated Na+ channels in the neuronal cell membrane responsible for action potential propagation.[40] With sufficient blockage, the voltage-gated sodium channels will not open and an action potential will not be generated. Careful titration allows for a high degree of selectivity in the blockage of sensory neurons, whereas higher concentrations also affect other types of neurons.

The same principle applies for this drug’s actions in the heart. Blocking sodium channels in the conduction system, as well as the muscle cells of the heart, raises the depolarization threshold, making the heart less likely to initiate or conduct early action potentials that may cause an arrhythmia.[41]

Pharmacokinetics

When used as an injectable it typically begins working within four minutes and lasts for half an hour to three hours.[8][9] Lidocaine is about 95% metabolized (dealkylated) in the liver mainly by CYP3A4 to the pharmacologically active metabolites monoethylglycinexylidide (MEGX) and then subsequently to the inactive glycine xylidide. MEGX has a longer half-life than lidocaine, but also is a less potent sodium channel blocker.[42] The volume of distribution is 1.1 L/kg to 2.1 L/kg, but congestive heart failure can decrease it. About 60% to 80% circulates bound to the protein alpha1 acid glycoprotein. The oral bioavailability is 35% and the topical bioavailability is 3%.

The elimination half-life of lidocaine is biphasic and around 90 min to 120 min in most patients. This may be prolonged in patients with hepatic impairment (average 343 min) or congestive heart failure (average 136 min).[43] Lidocaine is excreted in the urine (90% as metabolites and 10% as unchanged drug).[44]

History

Lidocaine, the first amino amide–type local anesthetic, was first synthesized under the name ‘xylocaine’ by Swedish chemist Nils Löfgren in 1943.[45][46][47] His colleague Bengt Lundqvist performed the first injection anesthesia experiments on himself.[45] It was first marketed in 1949.

Society and culture

Dosage forms

Lidocaine, usually in the form of its hydrochloride salt, is available in various forms including many topical formulations and solutions for injection or infusion.[48] It is also available as a transdermal patch, which is applied directly to the skin.

  • Lidocaine hydrochloride 2% epinephrine 1:80,000 solution for injection in a cartridge
  • Lidocaine hydrochloride 1% solution for injection
  • Topical lidocaine spray
  • 2% viscous lidocaine

Names

Lidocaine is the International Nonproprietary Name (INN), British Approved Name (BAN), and Australian Approved Name (AAN),[49] while lignocaine is the former BAN[citation needed] and AAN. Both the old and new names will be displayed on the product label in Australia until at least 2023.[50]

Xylocaine is a brand name.

Recreational use

As of 2021, lidocaine is not listed by the World Anti-Doping Agency as a substance whose use is banned in sport.[51] It is used as an adjuvant, adulterant, and diluent to street drugs such as cocaine and heroin.[52] It is one of the three common ingredients in site enhancement oil used by bodybuilders.[53]

Adulterant in cocaine

Lidocaine is often added to cocaine as a diluent.[54][55] Cocaine and lidocaine both numb the gums when applied. This gives the user the impression of high-quality cocaine, when in actuality the user is receiving a diluted product.[56]

Compendial status

Veterinary use

It is a component of the veterinary drug Tributame along with embutramide and chloroquine used to carry out euthanasia on horses and dogs.[58][59]

Patent

https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2007004238A2/enDivalproex sodium is one of the most widely used epileptic agents presently available in the market. Both the constituents, valproic acid and sodium valproate themselves have also been used for the treatment of epileptic seizures and convulsions. But their utility has remained restricted since valproic acid is a liquid and is difficult to formulate for an oral dosage form whereas sodium valproate is a hygroscopic solid with poor stability characteristics. Divalproex sodium is an oligomer having 1:1 molar ratio of valproic acid and sodium valproate containing 4 to 6 units. The relevant prior art includes US 4,988,731 (’73I) relates to a non-hygroscopic stable sodium hydrogen divalproate oligomer. Its probable structure is shown in Fig 1

Figure imgf000002_0001

Fig 1 – Divalproex sodiumWhere M is a about 2.As can be seen from the displayed structure, one mole each of the valproic acid forms coordinate bonds with the sodium of the sodium valproate molecule, and the valproate ion is ionically bonded to the sodium atom. The structure is thus consistent with the unique characteristic of the compound. However the preferred mode of representing Divalproex sodium is by reference to single compound of the formula{(CH3CH2CH2)2CHCO2} {(CH3CH2CH2)2CHCO2}Na, HThe said patent also describes two alternative processes for the preparation of the oligomer. According to one aspect, the oligomer is produced by dissolving sodium valproate and valproic acid in equimolar amount in acetone and crystallizing from chilled acetone at around O0C. Alternatively Divalproex sodium can be isolated from a two component liquid medium, which includes acetone where in half equivalent of NaOH to the valproic acid present, preferable as a solution in an acetone miscible solvent eg. water. The new compound can be recovered from the liquid phase by evaporating the solvent(s) and, if desired, the new compound can be recrystallized, for instance from acetonitrile or others or the material may be spay-dried, lyophilized or purified by chromatography.US ‘731 claims yield of 90% of theory.Drawbacks of the above mentioned reported methods for the preparation of Divalproex sodium described in US 4988731 are difficult to reproduce on a large scale and provides inconsistent yields and the material obtained is not always free flowing in nature. The process involves the crystallization of a 1:1 mixture of valproic acid and sodium valproate from a chilled solution of acetone, followed by washing with chilled acetone. Divalproex sodium is as such fairly soluble in acetone at temperatures above 1O0C and extreme care has to be. taken while performing washing with chilled acetone as any rise in temperature would lead to the loss of yield. This problem actually comes to the fore while scaling up the process during commercialization since during centrifugation of the large volume the temperature of the mixture rises and acetone has to be cooled below O0C, which require large amount of liquid nitrogen or dry ice. Moreover it was also observed that due to the cooled nature of the solvent, the isolated Divalproex sodium absorbs considerable amount of moisture and therefore requires longer time to dry eventually leading to longer time cycle for the otherwise simple single step process. Also the high moisture content in the recovered acetone makes it unsuitable for reuse. Alternatively, to avoid absorption of water, the centrifugation had to be carried out under a blanket of dry nitrogen gas. These additional infrastructural loads add to input costs eventually making the otherwise single step low cost process becoming uncompetitive and economically unviable.Similarly the other process involves the addition of half molar equivalent of sodium hydroxide dissolved in water to valproic acid and the solvent has to be evaporated to obtain crude product, which has to be recrystallized to get Divalprox of the desired specification. The process is operationally tedious and requires the reduction in the level of water in the reaction mass via evaporation of the solvent followed by re- crystallization from acetonitrile making the process lengthy and economically unviable. There is therefore a need for operationally making this single step process more efficient and high yieldingExample I:To lOOg of Valproic acid with stirring at 20-300C, powdered NaOH ( 13g; half molar) is added & the resulting reaction mixture is stirred at 40-500C for 1 hr.

Divalproex Sodium is a stable coordination compound comprised of sodium valproate and valproic acid with anticonvulsant and antiepileptic activities. Divalproex dissociates to the valproate ion in the gastrointestinal tract. This agent binds to and inhibits gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) transaminase and its anticonvulsant activity may be exerted by increasing brain concentration of GABA and by inhibiting enzymes that catabolize GABA or block the reuptake of GABA into glia and nerve endings. Divalproex may also work by suppressing repetitive neuronal firing through inhibition of voltage-sensitive sodium channels.

Valproate semisodium is a mixture of valproic acid and its sodium salt in a 1:1 molar ratio. It is used for the management and treatment of seizure disorders, mania, and prophylactic treatment of migraine headache. It has a role as an antimanic drug, an anticonvulsant and a GABA agent. It contains a valproic acid and a sodium valproate.

Divalproex sodium, valproate sodium, and valproic acid, are all similar medications that are used by the body as valproic acid. Therefore, the term valproic acid will be used to represent all of these medications in this discussion.

Valproate (VPA) and its valproic acidsodium valproate, and valproate semisodium forms are medications primarily used to treat epilepsy and bipolar disorder and prevent migraine headaches.[2] They are useful for the prevention of seizures in those with absence seizurespartial seizures, and generalized seizures.[2] They can be given intravenously or by mouth, and the tablet forms exist in both long- and short-acting formulations.[2]

Common side effects of valproate include nausea, vomiting, sleepiness, and dry mouth.[2] Serious side effects can include liver failure, and regular monitoring of liver function tests is therefore recommended.[2] Other serious risks include pancreatitis and an increased suicide risk.[2] Valproate is known to cause serious abnormalities in babies if taken during pregnancy,[2][3] and as such it is not typically recommended for women of childbearing age who have migraines.[2]

Valproate’s precise mechanism of action is unclear.[2][4] Proposed mechanisms include affecting GABA levels, blocking voltage-gated sodium channels, and inhibiting histone deacetylases.[5][6] Valproic acid is a branched short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) made from valeric acid.[5]

Valproate was first made in 1881 and came into medical use in 1962.[7] It is on the World Health Organization’s List of Essential Medicines[8] and is available as a generic medication.[2] It is marketed under the brand names Depakote, among others.[2] In 2018, it was the 131st most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than 5 million prescriptions.[9][10]

Terminology

Valproic acid (VPA) is an organic weak acid. The conjugate base is valproate. The sodium salt of the acid is sodium valproate and a coordination complex of the two is known as valproate semisodium.[11]

Medical uses

It is used primarily to treat epilepsy and bipolar disorder. It is also used to prevent migraine headaches.[12]

Epilepsy

Valproate has a broad spectrum of anticonvulsant activity, although it is primarily used as a first-line treatment for tonic–clonic seizuresabsence seizures and myoclonic seizures and as a second-line treatment for partial seizures and infantile spasms.[12][13] It has also been successfully given intravenously to treat status epilepticus.[14][15]

Mental illness

Bipolar disorder

Valproate products are also used to treat manic or mixed episodes of bipolar disorder.[16][17]

Schizophrenia

A 2016 systematic review compared the efficacy of valproate as an add-on for people with schizophrenia:[18]

There is limited evidence that adding valproate to antipsychotics may be effective for overall response and also for specific symptoms, especially in terms of excitement and aggression. Valproate was associated with a number of adverse events among which sedation and dizziness appeared more frequently than in the control groups.[18]
showOutcomeFindings in wordsFindings in numbersQuality of evidence

Dopamine dysregulation syndrome

Based upon five case reports, valproic acid may have efficacy in controlling the symptoms of the dopamine dysregulation syndrome that arise from the treatment of Parkinson’s disease with levodopa.[19][20][21]

Migraines

Valproate is also used to prevent migraine headaches. Because this medication can be potentially harmful to the fetus, valproate should be considered for those able to become pregnant only after the risks have been discussed.[22]

The medication has been tested in the treatment of AIDS and cancer, owing to its histone-deacetylase-inhibiting effects.[23]

Contraindications

Contraindications include:

Adverse effects

See also: List of adverse effects of valproic acid and List of adverse effects of valproate semisodium

Most common adverse effects include:[22]

Serious adverse effects include:[22]

Valproic acid has a black box warning for hepatotoxicitypancreatitis, and fetal abnormalities.[22]

There is evidence that valproic acid may cause premature growth plate ossification in children and adolescents, resulting in decreased height.[26][27][28][29] Valproic acid can also cause mydriasis, a dilation of the pupils.[30] There is evidence that shows valproic acid may increase the chance of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in women with epilepsy or bipolar disorder. Studies have shown this risk of PCOS is higher in women with epilepsy compared to those with bipolar disorder.[31] Weight gain is also possible.[32]

Pregnancy

Valproate causes birth defects;[33] exposure during pregnancy is associated with about three times as many major abnormalities as usual, mainly spina bifida with the risks being related to the strength of medication used and use of more than one drug.[34][35] More rarely, with several other defects, including a “valproate syndrome”.[36] Characteristics of this valproate syndrome include facial features that tend to evolve with age, including a triangle-shaped forehead, tall forehead with bifrontal narrowing, epicanthic folds, medial deficiency of eyebrows, flat nasal bridge, broad nasal root, anteverted nares, shallow philtrum, long upper lip and thin vermillion borders, thick lower lip and small downturned mouth.[37] While developmental delay is usually associated with altered physical characteristics (dysmorphic features), this is not always the case.[38]

Children of mothers taking valproate during pregnancy are at risk for lower IQs.[39][40][41] Maternal valproate use during pregnancy increased the probability of autism in the offspring compared to mothers not taking valproate from 1.5% to 4.4%.[42] A 2005 study found rates of autism among children exposed to sodium valproate before birth in the cohort studied were 8.9%.[43] The normal incidence for autism in the general population is estimated at less than one percent.[44] A 2009 study found that the 3-year-old children of pregnant women taking valproate had an IQ nine points lower than that of a well-matched control group. However, further research in older children and adults is needed.[45][46][47]

Sodium valproate has been associated with paroxysmal tonic upgaze of childhood, also known as Ouvrier–Billson syndrome, from childhood or fetal exposure. This condition resolved after discontinuing valproate therapy.[48][49]

Women who intend to become pregnant should switch to a different medication if possible or decrease their dose of valproate.[50] Women who become pregnant while taking valproate should be warned that it causes birth defects and cognitive impairment in the newborn, especially at high doses (although valproate is sometimes the only drug that can control seizures, and seizures in pregnancy could have worse outcomes for the fetus than exposure to valproate). Studies have shown that taking folic acid supplements can reduce the risk of congenital neural tube defects.[22] The use of valproate for migraine or bipolar disorder during pregnancy is contraindicated in the European Union, and the medicines are not recommended for epilepsy during pregnancy unless there is no other effective treatment available.[51]

Elderly

Valproate in elderly people with dementia caused increased sleepiness. More people stopped the medication for this reason. Additional side effects of weight loss and decreased food intake were also associated with one-half of people who become sleepy.[22]

Overdose and toxicity

Excessive amounts of valproic acid can result in sleepiness, tremorstuporrespiratory depressioncomametabolic acidosis, and death.[54] In general, serum or plasma valproic acid concentrations are in a range of 20–100 mg/l during controlled therapy, but may reach 150–1500 mg/l following acute poisoning. Monitoring of the serum level is often accomplished using commercial immunoassay techniques, although some laboratories employ gas or liquid chromatography.[55] In contrast to other antiepileptic drugs, at present there is little favorable evidence for salivary therapeutic drug monitoring. Salivary levels of valproic acid correlate poorly with serum levels, partly due to valproate’s weak acid property (pKa of 4.9).[56]

In severe intoxication, hemoperfusion or hemofiltration can be an effective means of hastening elimination of the drug from the body.[57][58] Supportive therapy should be given to all patients experiencing an overdose and urine output should be monitored.[22] Supplemental L-carnitine is indicated in patients having an acute overdose[59][60] and also prophylactically[59] in high risk patients. Acetyl-L-carnitine lowers hyperammonemia less markedly[61] than L-carnitine.

Interactions

Valproate inhibits CYP2C9glucuronyl transferase, and epoxide hydrolase and is highly protein bound and hence may interact with drugs that are substrates for any of these enzymes or are highly protein bound themselves.[24] It may also potentiate the CNS depressant effects of alcohol.[24] It should not be given in conjunction with other antiepileptics due to the potential for reduced clearance of other antiepileptics (including carbamazepinelamotriginephenytoin and phenobarbitone) and itself.[24] It may also interact with:[22][24][62]

  • Aspirin: may increase valproate concentrations. May also interfere with valproate’s metabolism.
  • Benzodiazepines: may cause CNS depression and there are possible pharmacokinetic interactions.
  • Carbapenem antibiotics: reduce valproate levels, potentially leading to seizures.
  • Cimetidine: inhibits valproate’s metabolism in the liver, leading to increased valproate concentrations.
  • Erythromycin: inhibits valproate’s metabolism in the liver, leading to increased valproate concentrations.
  • Ethosuximide: valproate may increase ethosuximide concentrations and lead to toxicity.
  • Felbamate: may increase plasma concentrations of valproate.
  • Mefloquine: may increase valproate metabolism combined with the direct epileptogenic effects of mefloquine.
  • Oral contraceptives: may reduce plasma concentrations of valproate.
  • Primidone: may accelerate metabolism of valproate, leading to a decline of serum levels and potential breakthrough seizure.
  • Rifampicin: increases the clearance of valproate, leading to decreased valproate concentrations
  • Warfarin: valproate may increase free warfarin concentration and prolong bleeding time.
  • Zidovudine: valproate may increase zidovudine serum concentration and lead to toxicity.

Pharmacology

Pharmacodynamics

Although the mechanism of action of valproate is not fully understood,[24] traditionally, its anticonvulsant effect has been attributed to the blockade of voltage-gated sodium channels and increased brain levels of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA).[24] The GABAergic effect is also believed to contribute towards the anti-manic properties of valproate.[24] In animals, sodium valproate raises cerebral and cerebellar levels of the inhibitory synaptic neurotransmitter, GABA, possibly by inhibiting GABA degradative enzymes, such as GABA transaminasesuccinate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase and by inhibiting the re-uptake of GABA by neuronal cells.[24]

Prevention of neurotransmitter-induced hyperexcitability of nerve cells, via Kv7.2 channel and AKAP5, may also contribute to its mechanism.[63] Also, it has been shown to protect against a seizure-induced reduction in phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-trisphosphate (PIP3) as a potential therapeutic mechanism.[64]

It also has histone-deacetylase-inhibiting effects. The inhibition of histone deacetylase, by promoting more transcriptionally active chromatin structures, likely presents the epigenetic mechanism for regulation of many of the neuroprotective effects attributed to valproic acid. Intermediate molecules mediating these effects include VEGFBDNF, and GDNF.[65][66]

Endocrine actions

Valproic acid has been found to be an antagonist of the androgen and progesterone receptors, and hence as a nonsteroidal antiandrogen and antiprogestogen, at concentrations much lower than therapeutic serum levels.[67] In addition, the drug has been identified as a potent aromatase inhibitor, and suppresses estrogen concentrations.[68] These actions are likely to be involved in the reproductive endocrine disturbances seen with valproic acid treatment.[67][68]

Valproic acid has been found to directly stimulate androgen biosynthesis in the gonads via inhibition of histone deacetylases and has been associated with hyperandrogenism in women and increased 4-androstenedione levels in men.[69][70] High rates of polycystic ovary syndrome and menstrual disorders have also been observed in women treated with valproic acid.[70]

Pharmacokinetics

Some metabolites of valproic acid. Glucuronidation and β-oxidation are the main metabolic pathways; ω-oxidation metabolites are considered hepatotoxic.[71][72] Details see text.

Taken by mouth, valproate is rapidly and virtually completely absorbed from the gut.[71] When in the bloodstream, 80–90% of the substance are bound to plasma proteins, mainly albumin. Protein binding is saturable: it decreases with increasing valproate concentration, low albumin concentrations, the patient’s age, additional use of other drugs such as aspirin, as well as liver and kidney impairment.[73][74] Concentrations in the cerebrospinal fluid and in breast milk are 1 to 10% of blood plasma concentrations.[71]

The vast majority of valproate metabolism occurs in the liver.[75] Valproate is known to be metabolized by the cytochrome P450 enzymes CYP2A6CYP2B6CYP2C9, and CYP3A5.[75] It is also known to be metabolized by the UDP-glucuronosyltransferase enzymes UGT1A3UGT1A4UGT1A6UGT1A8UGT1A9UGT1A10UGT2B7, and UGT2B15.[75] Some of the known metabolites of valproate by these enzymes and uncharacterized enzymes include (see image):[75]

  • via glucuronidation (30–50%): valproic acid β-O-glucuronide
  • via beta oxidation (>40%): 2E-ene-valproic acid, 2Z-ene-valproic acid, 3-hydroxyvalproic acid, 3-oxovalproic acid
  • via omega oxidation: 5-hydroxyvalproic acid, 2-propyl-glutaric acid
  • some others: 3E-ene-valproic acid, 3Z-ene-valproic acid, 4-ene-valproic acid, 4-hydroxyvalproic acid

All in all, over 20 metabolites are known.[71]

In adult patients taking valproate alone, 30–50% of an administered dose is excreted in urine as the glucuronide conjugate.[75] The other major pathway in the metabolism of valproate is mitochondrial beta oxidation, which typically accounts for over 40% of an administered dose.[75] Typically, less than 20% of an administered dose is eliminated by other oxidative mechanisms.[75] Less than 3% of an administered dose of valproate is excreted unchanged (i.e., as valproate) in urine.[75] Only a small amount is excreted via the faeces.[71] Elimination half-life is 16±3 hours and can decrease to 4–9 hours when combined with enzyme inducers.[71][74]

Chemistry

Valproic acid is a branched short-chain fatty acid and the 2-npropyl derivative of valeric acid.[5]

History

Valproic acid was first synthesized in 1882 by Beverly S. Burton as an analogue of valeric acid, found naturally in valerian.[76] Valproic acid is a carboxylic acid, a clear liquid at room temperature. For many decades, its only use was in laboratories as a “metabolically inert” solvent for organic compounds. In 1962, the French researcher Pierre Eymard serendipitously discovered the anticonvulsant properties of valproic acid while using it as a vehicle for a number of other compounds that were being screened for antiseizure activity. He found it prevented pentylenetetrazol-induced convulsions in laboratory rats.[77] It was approved as an antiepileptic drug in 1967 in France and has become the most widely prescribed antiepileptic drug worldwide.[78] Valproic acid has also been used for migraine prophylaxis and bipolar disorder.[79]

Valproate exists in two main molecular variants: sodium valproate and valproic acid without sodium (often implied by simply valproate). A mixture between these two is termed semisodium valproate. It is unclear whether there is any difference in efficacy between these variants, except from the fact that about 10% more mass of sodium valproate is needed than valproic acid without sodium to compensate for the sodium itself.[114]

Forms

Faropenem was developed by Daiichi Asubio Pharma, which markets it in two forms.

  • The sodium salt faropenem sodium, available under the trade name Farom, has been marketed in Japan since 1997. (CID 636379 from PubChem)
  • The prodrug form faropenem medoxomil[4] (also known as faropenem daloxate) has been licensed from Daiichi Asubio Pharma by Replidyne, which plans to market it in conjunction with Forest Pharmaceuticals. The trade name proposed for the product was Orapem, but company officials recently announced this name was rejected by the FDA.[5]

Clinical use

As of 8 September 2015, Faropenem has yet to receive marketing approval in the United States, and was submitted for consideration by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on 20 December 2005. The new drug application dossier submitted included these proposed indications:

  • acute bacterial sinusitis
  • community-acquired pneumonia
  • acute exacerbations of chronic bronchitis
  • uncomplicated skin and skin structure infections
  • urinary tract infections

History

The FDA refused to approve faropenem, an antibiotic manufactured by Louisville-based Replidyne. The FDA said the drug was “nonapprovable”, but did not refer to specific safety concerns about the product. The company will have to conduct new studies and clinical trials, lasting an estimated two more years, to prove the drug treats community-acquired pneumonia, bacterial sinusitis, chronic bronchitis, and skin infections.[citation needed]

In India it is available as Farobact 200/300ER CIPLA.

PATENT

https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2008035153A2/enFaropenem is an orally active β-lactam antibiotic belonging to the penem group. Faropenem is chemically known as 6-(l-hydroxyethyl)-7-oxo-3-(oxolan-2-yl)-4-thia-l-azabicyclo[3.2.0]hept-2-ene-2-carboxylicacid. The known forms of Faropenem are Faropenem sodium and the prodrug form, FaropenemMedoxomil (also known as Faropenem Daloxate). In view of the importance of the compound of the formula (I), several synthetic procedures to prepare the compound have been reported.US 4,997,829 provides process for the preparation of faropenem according to the following scheme. The process is exemplified with the allyl protected carboxyl group. One of the process involves the reaction of A- acetoxyazetidinone with tetrahydrothiofuroic acid, condensation with allyl glyoxalate in refluxing benzene, chlorination with thionyl chloride, reaction of triphenylphosphine with lutidine in hot THF, cyclization in refluxing toluene, deprotection of silyl protecting group with tetrabutylammonium fluoride, treating with triphenylphosphine and, treating with sodium 2-ethylhexanoate and (PP^)4Pd to result faropenem sodium. The process exemplified utilizes benzene as solvent, which is not environmentally acceptable. Tetrabutylammonium fluoride was used as desilylating agent that is expensive. Even though the description teaches that optically active compounds can be employed, the examples utilized the dl-compound of tetrahydrothiofuroic acid further requiring resolution.

Figure imgf000003_0001

Methods are provided for the synthesis of series of penem compounds in J Antibiotics 1988, 41(11), 1685-1693. The provided methods utilize sulfonylazetidinone as the starting materials. As one of the procedures gives lesser yield, another procedure was adopted which uses silver salts.Japanese patent, JP2949363 describes a process for deallylation and salt formation with an alkali metal salt of carboxylic acid in the presence of a catalytic amount of palladium complex for the preparation of faropenem.EP410727 describes a process for removing allyl group from a penem compound using cyclic 1,3-diketone such as dimedone.The yield and quality of the final product is always less in the above prior art methods. With the continued research, the present inventors have undertaken extensive studies for developing a process for the preparation of compound of formula (I), which is commercially viable, involves simple techniques such as crystallizations, with improved yields and quality of the product, and with lesser reaction time. None of the prior art suggests or teaches the techniques provided herein.The process is shown in Scheme-I as given below:

Figure imgf000005_0001

One-pot process for the preparation of Faropenem sodium:Sodium salt of R(+)-tetrahydrofuran-2-thiocarboxylic acid (67 g) in aqueous acetone was added slowly to a solution of AOSA (100 g) in acetone (200 mL) and stirred for 3 h at pH 8.0 to 8.5 using sodium bicarbonate solution.After completion of the reaction, the product was extracted with toluene. The combined toluene layer was washed with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution and brine solution. Toluene was removed under vacuum completely and the mass obtained, 3-(l’-tert-butyldimethylsilyloxyethyl)-4-(2′- tetrahydrofuranoylthio)-2-azetidinone was directly taken for next step.3-(r-tert-Butyldimethylsilyloxyethyl)-4-(2′-tetrahydrofuranoylthio)-2- azetidinone obtained was dissolved in toluene (1000 mL) and cooled to -10 to -5 °C under nitrogen. Triethylamine (124 mL) was added to it followed by allyl oxalyl chloride (82 g) at -10 to- 5 0C for 2 h. After completion of the reaction, cold water was added to the mass and washed with dilute hydrochloric acid and sodium bicarbonate solution. Toluene layer was separated and washed with purified water. The toluene layer containing compound of formula (VI) was concentrated under vacuum at 50 to 60 °C and taken for next step as such.Compound of formula (VI) (150 g) was dissolved in triethyl phosphite (150 mL), heated to 60 0C and stirred under nitrogen atmosphere. Toluene (3000 mL) was added, heated to 100 to 110 °C and stirred for 20- 24 h. Toluene was distilled under vacuum completely. Product obtained, allyl (1 ‘R,2″R,5R,6S)-6-(l 5-tert-butyldimethylsilyloxyethyl)-2-(2″-tetrahydrofuranyl) penem-3-carboxylate (VII) was directly taken for next step.Compound (VII) obtained was dissolved in DMF (700 mL) at 30 °C.Ammonium hydrogen difluoride (80 g) and NMP (210 mL) were added and stirred at room temperature for 25 to 35 h. The reaction mass was quenched into a mixture of water-ethyl acetate and stirred at room temperature. The ethyl acetate layer was separated and the aqueous layer extracted with ethyl acetate.  The combined ethyl acetate layer was washed with water followed by saturated sodium bicarbonate solution. The ethyl acetate layer was charcoal treated. The ethyl acetate layer containing allyl (l’R,2″R,5R,6S)-6-(l’-hydroxyethyl)-2-(2″- tetrahydrofuranyl)penem-3-carboxylate (XII) was partially distilled and taken for the next step.The ethyl acetate layer containing compound of formula (XII), Pd/C, sodium bicarbonate and purified water (1000 mL) were taken in an autoclave and maintained 5 to 10 kg pressure of hydrogen gas for 2-5 h. After completion of the reaction the Pd/C was filtered off and ethyl acetate layer separated. The pH of the mass was adjusted to 1.5 and extracted with ethyl acetate. The aqueous layer was extracted again with ethyl acetate twice. The combined ethyl acetate layer was carbon treated. Sodium-2-ethylhexanoate in ethyl acetate was added slowly and stirred. The precipitated title compound was filtered under vacuum, washed with acetone and dried. Dry weight of the product: 65-75 g.Example 9Purification of Faropenem sodiumCrude Faropenem sodium (50 g) was dissolved in purified water (200 mL) at 25-30 0C. The solution was charcoalised. Acetone (1500 mL) was added. The reaction mass was stirred further for 10 min. The precipitated solid was cooled to 0 —2 °C then filtered, washed with acetone and dried at room temperature. Weight of pure Faropenem sodium is 43 to 46 g (Purity 99.95%).Example 9aPurification of Faropenem sodiumCrude Faropenem sodium (50 g) was dissolved in purified water (200 mL) at 25-30 °C. Acetone (150O mL) was added. The reaction mass was stirred further for 10 min. The precipitated solid was cooled to 0-2 °C then filtered, washed with acetone and dried at room temperature. Weight of pure Faropenem sodium is 43 to 46 g (Purity 99.95%).

This compound is prepared by several related ways: 1) The reaction of silylated azetidinone (I) with tetrahydrofuran-2-thiocarboxylic acid (II) by means of NaOH in THF – water gives the azetidinone thioester (III), which is condensed with allyl glyoxylate in refluxing benzene yielding the hydroxyester (IV). The reaction of (IV) with SOCl2 affords the chloroester (V), which by reaction with triphenylphosphine by means of lutidine in hot THF is converted into the phosphoranylidene derivative (VI). The elimination of the silyl protecting group of (VI) with tetrabutylammonium fluoride gives the azetidinone (VII), which is cyclized in refluxing toluene yielding the (5R,6S)-6-[1(R)-hydroxyethyl]-2-[2(R)-tetrahydrofuryl]penem-3-carboxyli c acid allyl ester (VIII). Finally, this compound is hydrolyzed with triphenylphosphine, sodium 2-ethylhexanoate and Pd-tetrakis(triphenylphosphine). 2) The condensation of the silver salt of protected azetidinone (IX) with tetrahydrofuran-2(R)-carbonyl chloride (X) also yields the phosphoranylidene salt (VI). 3) Phosphoranylidene ester (VI) can also be cyclized first in refluxing benzene yielding the silylated penem ester (XI), which is deprotected with tetrabutylammonium fluoride to (VIII). 4) The hydrolysis of allyl ester (VIII) to the final product can also be performed with paladium tetrakis(triphenylphosphine) and sodium 4-(methoxycarbonyl)-5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,3-dione enolate in several different solvents such as methyl acetate, ethylacetate, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, sec-butanol, acetonitrile, acetone, 2-butanone, 1,2-dichloroethane, chlorobenzene, toluene, or ethylene glycol dimethyl ether. 5) The preceding hydrolysis can also be performed with triphenylphosphine and paladium tetrakis(triphenylphosphine) with sodium propionate, sodium acetate or sodium lactate in tetrahydrofuran or acetone.

Treatment of the silylated azetidinone (I) with tritylmercaptan affords the tritylsulfanyl-azetidinone (II), which is converted into the silver salt (III) by reaction with AgNO3. Compound (III) is coupled with tetrahydrofuran-2(R)-carbonyl chloride (IV) — obtained by treatment of carboxylic acid (V) with thionyl chloride — providing the azetidinone thioester (VI). Coupling of azetidinone (VI) with allyl oxalyl chloride (VII) in CH2Cl2 by means of Et3N, followed by intramolecular Wittig cyclization by means of triethyl phosphite in refluxing xylene, affords penem (VIII). Alternatively, compound (VIII) can also be obtained as follows: Substitution of phenyl sulfonyl group of azetidinone (X) by tritylmercaptan by means of NaOH in acetone/water provides tritylsulfanyl-azetidinone (XI), which is condensed with allyl oxalyl chloride (VII) by means of DIEA in CH2Cl2 to give the oxalyl amide (XII). Compound (XII) is then treated with AgNO3 and pyridine in acetonitrile, providing the silver mercaptide (XIII), which is acylated with tetrahydrofuran-2(R)-carbonyl chloride (IV) in acetonitrile to afford the penem precursor (XIV). Penem (VIII) is obtained by intramolecular Wittig cyclization of (XIV) with P(OEt)3 in refluxing xylene. Finally, faropenem sodium can be obtained by removal of the tbdms protecting group of (VIII) by means of either Et3N tris(hydrogen fluoride) in ethyl acetate or tetrabutylammonium fluoride (TBAF) and HOAc in THF to give compound (IX). This is followed by allyl ester group removal of (IX), which can be performed under several different conditions: i) triphenylphosphine, sodium 2-ethylhexanoate and palladium tetrakis(triphenylphosphine); ii) palladium tetrakis(triphenylphosphine) and sodium 4-(methoxycarbonyl)-5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,3-dione enolate in several different solvents such as methyl acetate, ethyl acetate, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, sec-butanol, acetonitrile, acetone, 2-butanone, 1,2-dichloroethane, chlorobenzene, toluene or ethylene glycol dimethyl ether; iii) triphenylphosphine and palladium tetrakis(triphenylphosphine) with sodium propionate, sodium acetate or sodium lactate in tetrahydrofuran or acetone; or iv) palladium acetate in the presence of P(OBu)3 and sodium propionate in THF.

Treatment of the silylated azetidinone (I) with tritylmercaptan affords the tritylsulfanylazetidinone (II), which by reaction with AgNO3 is converted into the silver salt (III). Compound (III) is coupled with tetrahydrofuran-2(R)-carbonyl chloride (IV) ?obtained by treatment of carboxylic acid (V) with thionyl chloride ?to provide the azetidinone thioester (VI). Alternatively, compound (VI) can be obtained by condensation of tetrahydrofuran-2(R)-thiocarboxylic S-acid (VII) ?obtained by treatment of carboxylic acid (V) with hydrogen sulfide ?with silylated azetidinones (I) or (VIII) by means of NaOH in THF/water. Condensation of azetidinone thioester (VI) with allyl glyoxylate (IX) in refluxing benzene gives the hydroxy ester (X), which is treated with SOCl2 to yield the chloro ester (XI). Reaction of compound (XI) with triphenylphosphine and lutidine in hot THF provides the phosphoranylidene derivative (XII), which is converted into (5R,6S)-6-[1(R)-hydroxyethyl]-2-[2(R)-tetrahydrofuryl]penem-3-carboxylic acid allyl ester, faropenem allyl ester (XIII) by removal of the silyl protecting group with tetrabutylammonium fluoride, followed by cyclization in refluxing toluene. Compound (XII) can also be obtained by condensation of the silver salt of protected azetidinone (XIV) with tetrahydrofuran-2(R)-carbonyl chloride (V).

Alternatively, faropenem allyl ester (XIII) can also be prepared by cyclization of compound (XII) in refluxing benzene to yield silylated penem allyl ester (XV), which is then deprotected with either tetrabutylammonium fluoride in AcOH or triethylamine tris(hydrogen fluoride) in methyl isobutyl ketone or toluene. Penem (XV) can also be synthesized by several related ways: a) By coupling of azetidinone (VI) with allyl oxalyl chloride (XVI) in CH2Cl2 by means of Et3N, followed by intramolecular Wittig cyclization by means of triethyl phosphite in refluxing xylene. b) Substitution of phenyl sulfonyl group of azetidinone (VIII) by tritylmercaptan by means of NaOH in acetone/water provides tritylsulfanyl-azetidinone (II), which is condensed with allyl oxalyl chloride (XVI) by means of DIEA in CH2Cl2 to give the oxalyl amide (XVII). Compound (XVII) is then treated with AgNO3 and pyridine in acetonitrile to provide the silver mercaptide (XVIII), which is acylated with tetrahydrofuran-2(R)-carbonyl chloride (IV) in acetonitrile to afford the penem precursor (XIX). Finally, compound (XV) is obtained by intramolecular Wittig cyclization of (XX) with P(OEt)3 in refluxing xylene.

Hydrolysis of faropenem allyl ester (XIII) to faropenem sodium (XX) can be performed under several different conditions: i) triphenylphosphine, sodium 2-ethylhexanoate and palladium tetrakis(triphenylphosphine); ii) palladium tetrakis(triphenylphosphine) and sodium 4-(methoxycarbonyl)- 5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,3-dione enolate in several different solvents such as methyl acetate, ethyl acetate, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, sec-butanol, acetonitrile, acetone, 2-butanone, 1,2-dichloroethane, chlorobenzene, toluene, or ethylene glycol dimethyl ether; iii) triphenylphosphine and palladium tetrakis(triphenylphosphine) with sodium propionate, sodium acetate or sodium lactate in tetrahydrofuran or acetone; and iv) palladium acetate in the presence of P(OBu)3 and sodium propionate in THF. Finally, faropenem daloxate can be directly obtained from faropenem sodium (XX) by esterification with 4-(iodomethyl)-5-methyl-1,3-dioxol-2-one (XXI) in DMF.

10:35 Small Molecule Inhibitors of RORgamma and IRAK4 for the Treatment of Autoimmune Disorders

Susanta_SamajdarSusanta Samajdar, Ph.D., Director, Medicinal Chemistry, Aurigene Discovery Technologies Limited

Although biologics such as anti-TNFα antibody are fairly successful in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, there is significant unmet need due to heterogeneity in diseases and lack of response to established therapies in some patients. While biologics typically target one cytokine signaling pathway, small molecule therapeutics directed towards intracellular target(s) can interfere in the signaling from multiple cytokines potentially leading to improved response. Development of small molecule oral inhibitors of IRAK4 and RORgamma to target TLR/IL-R and Th17 pathway respectively will be discussed.

Piroxicam is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) of the oxicam class used to relieve the symptoms of painful inflammatory conditions like arthritis.[3][4] Piroxicam works by preventing the production of endogenous prostaglandins] which are involved in the mediation of pain, stiffness, tenderness and swelling.[3] The medicine is available as capsulestablets and (not in all countries) as a prescription-free gel 0.5%.[5] It is also available in a betadex formulation, which allows a more rapid absorption of piroxicam from the digestive tract.[3] Piroxicam is one of the few NSAIDs that can be given parenteral routes.

It was patented in 1968 by Pfizer and approved for medical use in 1979.[6] It became generic in 1992,[7] and is marketed worldwide under many brandnames.[1]

Medical uses

It is used in the treatment of certain inflammatory conditions like rheumatoid and osteoarthritis, primary dysmenorrhoea, postoperative pain; and act as an analgesic, especially where there is an inflammatory component.[3] The European Medicines Agency issued a review of its use in 2007 and recommended that its use be limited to the treatment of chronic inflammatory conditions, as it is only in these circumstances that its risk-benefit ratio proves to be favourable.[5][8]

Adverse effects

See also: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug

As with other NSAIDs the principal side effects include: digestive complaints like nausea, discomfort, diarrhoea and bleeds or ulceration of the stomach, as well as headache, dizziness, nervousness, depression, drowsiness, insomnia, vertigo, hearing disturbances (such as tinnitus), high blood pressureoedema, light sensitivity, skin reactions (including, albeit rarely, Stevens–Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis) and rarely, kidney failurepancreatitisliver damage, visual disturbances, pulmonary eosinophilia and alveolitis.[5] Compared to other NSAIDs it is more prone to causing gastrointestinal disturbances and serious skin reactions.[5]

In October 2020, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) required the drug label to be updated for all nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications to describe the risk of kidney problems in unborn babies that result in low amniotic fluid.[9][10] They recommend avoiding NSAIDs in pregnant women at 20 weeks or later in pregnancy.[9][10]

Mechanism of action

See also: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug

Piroxicam is an NSAID and, as such, is a non-selective COX inhibitor possessing both analgesic and antipyretic properties.[5]

Chemical properties

Piroxicam exists as alkenol tautomer in organic solvents and as zwitterionic form in water.[11]

History

The project that produced piroxicam began in 1962 at Pfizer; the first clinical trial results were reported in 1977, and the product launched in 1980 under the brand name “Feldene”.[7][12] Major patents expired in 1992[7] and the drug is marketed worldwide under many brandnames.[1]

Piracetam is in the racetams group, with chemical name 2-oxo-1-pyrrolidine acetamide. It is a derivative of the neurotransmitter GABA[5] and shares the same 2-oxo-pyrrolidone base structure with pyroglutamic acid. Piracetam is a cyclic derivative of GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid). Related drugs include the anticonvulsants levetiracetam and brivaracetam, and the putative nootropics aniracetam and phenylpiracetam.Piracetam is a drug marketed as a treatment for myoclonus[3] and a cognitive enhancer.[4] Evidence to support its use is unclear, with some studies showing modest benefits in specific populations and others showing minimal or no benefit.[5][6] Piracetam is sold as a medication in many European countries. Sale of piracetam is not illegal in the United States, although it is not regulated nor approved by the FDA so it must be marketed as a dietary supplement.[4]

Efficacy

Dementia

A 2001 Cochrane review concluded that there was not enough evidence to support piracetam for dementia or cognitive problems.[6] A 2005 review found some evidence of benefit in older subjects with cognitive impairment.[5] In 2008, a working group of the British Academy of Medical Sciences noted that many of the trials of piracetam for dementia were flawed.[7]

There is no good evidence that piracetam is of benefit in treating vascular dementia.[8]

Depression and anxiety

Some sources suggest that piracetam’s overall effect on lowering depression and anxiety is higher than on improving memory.[9] However, depression is reported to be an occasional adverse effect of piracetam.[10]

Other

Piracetam may facilitate the deformability of erythrocytes in capillary which is useful for cardiovascular disease.[5][3]

Peripheral vascular effects of piracetam have suggested its use potential for vertigodyslexiaRaynaud’s phenomenon and sickle cell anemia.[5][3] There is no evidence to support piracetam’s use in sickle cell crisis prevention[11] or for fetal distress during childbirth.[12] There is no evidence for benefit of piracetam with acute ischemic stroke,[13] though there is debate as to its utility during stroke rehabilitation.[14][15]

Anti-vasospasm

Piracetam has been found to diminish erythrocyte adhesion to vascular wall endothelium, making any vasospasm in the capillary less severe. This contributes to its efficacy in promoting microcirculation, including to the brain and kidneys.[5][3]

Side effects

Symptoms of general excitability, including anxietyinsomniairritabilityheadacheagitationnervousnesstremor, and hyperkinesia, are occasionally reported.[10][16][17] Other reported side effects include somnolenceweight gainclinical depressionweakness, increased libido, and hypersexuality.[10]

According to a 2005 review, piracetam has been observed to have the following side effects: hyperkinesia, weight gain, nervousness, somnolence, depression and asthenia.[5]

Piracetam reduces platelet aggregation as well as fibrinogen concentration, and thus is contraindicated to patients suffering from cerebral hemorrhage.[5][3]

Toxicity

Piracetam does not appear to be acutely toxic at the doses used in human studies.[6][18][19]

The LD50 for oral consumption in humans has not been determined.[20] The LD50 is 5.6 g/kg for rats and 20 g/kg for mice, indicating extremely low acute toxicity.[21] For comparison, in rats the LD50 of vitamin C is 12 g/kg and the LD50 of table salt is 3 g/kg.

Mechanisms of action

Piracetam’s mechanism of action, as with racetams in general, is not fully understood. The drug influences neuronal and vascular functions and influences cognitive function without acting as a sedative or stimulant.[5] Piracetam is a positive allosteric modulator of the AMPA receptor, although this action is very weak and its clinical effects may not necessarily be mediated by this action.[22] It is hypothesized to act on ion channels or ion carriers, thus leading to increased neuron excitability.[20] GABA brain metabolism and GABA receptors are not affected by piracetam[23]

Piracetam improves the function of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine via muscarinic cholinergic (ACh) receptors[citation needed], which are implicated in memory processes.[24] Furthermore, piracetam may have an effect on NMDA glutamate receptors, which are involved with learning and memory processes. Piracetam is thought to increase cell membrane permeability.[24][25] Piracetam may exert its global effect on brain neurotransmission via modulation of ion channels (i.e., Na+, K+).[20] It has been found to increase oxygen consumption in the brain, apparently in connection to ATP metabolism, and increases the activity of adenylate kinase in rat brains.[26][27] Piracetam, while in the brain, appears to increase the synthesis of cytochrome b5,[28] which is a part of the electron transport mechanism in mitochondria. But in the brain, it also increases the permeability of some intermediates of the Krebs cycle through the mitochondrial outer membrane.[26]

Piracetam inhibits N-type calcium channels. The concentration of piracetam achieved in central nervous system after a typical dose of 1200 mg (about 100 μM)[29] is much higher than the concentration necessary to inhibit N-type calcium channels (IC50 of piracetam in rat neurons was 3 μM).[30]

History

Piracetam was first made some time between the 1950s and 1964 by Corneliu E. Giurgea.[31] There are reports of it being used for epilepsy in the 1950s.[32]

Society and culture

In 2009 piracetam was reportedly popular as a cognitive enhancement drug among students.[33]

Legal status

Piracetam is an uncontrolled substance in the United States meaning it is legal to possess without a license or prescription.[34]

Regulatory status

In the United States, piracetam is not approved by the Food and Drug Administration.[1] Piracetam is not permitted in compounded drugs or dietary supplements in the United States.[35] Nevertheless, it is available in a number of dietary supplements.[4]

In the United Kingdom, piracetam is approved as a prescription drug Prescription Only Medicine (POM) number is PL 20636/2524[36] for adult with myoclonus of cortical origin, irrespective of cause, and should be used in combination with other anti-myoclonic therapies.[37]

In Japan piracetam is approved as a prescription drug.[38]

Piracetam has no DIN in Canada, and thus cannot be sold but can be imported for personal use in Canada.[39]

In Hungary, piracetam was a prescription-only medication, but as of 2020, no prescription is required and piracetam is available as an over-the-counter drug under the name Memoril Mite, and is available in 600 mg pills.

According to the literature reports, the synthetic route of piracetam can be divided into four synthetic methods: α-pyrrolidone method, glycine method, succinic anhydride method and one-step synthesis method:[0009] I. α-pyrrolidone method, 2-pyrrolidone is a lactam, which can react with a strong base (sodium hydride or potassium hydride, sodium methoxide) to generate pyrrolidone metal salt, which can be further combined with halogenated ester or halogen Substitute amide reaction to generate N-alkylated product.[0010] In 1966, a method for preparing piracetam by reacting pyrrolidone and chloroacetamide in 1,4-dioxane with sodium hydrogen as a strong base was reported. The specific synthetic route is shown in Scheme 1:[0011]

Figure CN104478779AD00032

[0012] In this process, due to the high price of dioxane, industrial production is still difficult. On the basis of the above process, Xu Yungen used dimethyl sulfoxide as the solvent and sodium methoxide as the acid binding agent to synthesize piracetam in the presence of the phase transfer catalyst benzyltriethylammonium chloride. Due to the difficulty of solvent recovery, the cost of this route is relatively high.[0013] In 1981, Zhou Renxing et al. used sodium methoxide as a strong base to extract methanol in toluene by fractional distillation to convert pyrrolidone into the corresponding sodium salt, and then react with ethyl chloroacetate. The resulting ethyl pyrrolidone ethyl acetate was subjected to ammonolysis. Piracetam can be produced. The specific synthetic route is shown in Scheme 2.[00141

Figure CN104478779AD00041

[0015] Because the ammonolysis is carried out in a methanol solution of ammonia, the calculated amount of ethanol generated during the ammonolysis contaminates the methanol solution of ammonia used, which affects the recycling of the methanol solution of ammonia, and is therefore not conducive to process production.[0016] 2. Glycine method, glycine and its derivatives can be used as starting materials for the synthesis of pyroacetamide. Glycine can be prepared by γ-chlorination butylation, amination and cyclization.[0017] According to a British patent report in 1979, glycine trimethylsilyl ester was first condensed with γ-chlorobutyryl chloride, and the corresponding acid chloride was subjected to ammonolysis, and finally cyclized to produce piracetam. The specific synthesis method is as Scheme 3 Shown[0018]

Figure CN104478779AD00042

[0019] In this type of synthesis route, some raw materials are not easily available, which restricts industrial production.[0020] 3. Succinic acid method, succinic acid is heated and dehydrated to generate succinic anhydride, succinic anhydride then reacts with glycine to generate an aminolysis product, and the aminolysis product is reduced by sodium tetrafluoroborate, and piracetam can be synthesized by aminolysis , The specific synthetic route is shown in SCheme4. [0021]

Figure CN104478779AD00043

[0022] Because sodium tetrafluoroborate is used as a reducing agent, it is expensive, and it is difficult to expand the scale of industrial production. Succinimide generates sodium salt under the action of metal sodium, and its sodium salt reacts with chloroacetamide to generate N-alkylated product. The alkylated product can be electrolytically reduced to obtain piracetam. Since electrolytic reduction is still in the research stage in our country, the production cost of this method is relatively high.[0023] 4. One-step synthesis method, using ethyl 4-chloro-n-butyrate in the presence of sodium bicarbonate, using anhydrous ethanol as a solvent, and glycinamide hydrochloride under heating and refluxing to obtain piracetam in one step, The specific synthetic route is shown in S Cheme5.[0024]

Figure CN104478779AD00044

[0025] In this route, glycinamide hydrochloride is very easy to absorb moisture and agglomerate to affect the reaction rate, and the reaction is not easy to control, so it is difficult to achieve industrial production.

REACH

https://ec.europa.eu/environment/chemicals/reach/reach_en.htm#:~:text=REACH%20(EC%201907%2F2006),authorisation%20and%20restriction%20of%20chemicals.

REACH (EC 1907/2006)aims to improve the protection of human health and the environment through the better and earlier identification of the intrinsic properties of chemical substances. This is done by the four processes of REACH, namely the registration, evaluation, authorisation and restriction of chemicals. REACH also aims to enhance innovationand competitiveness of the EU chemicals industry.

“No data no market”: the REACH Regulation places responsibility on industry to manage the risks from chemicals and to provide safety information on the substances. Manufacturers and importers are required to gather information on the properties of their chemical substances, which will allow their safe handling, and to register the information in a central database in theEuropean Chemicals Agency (ECHA)in Helsinki. The Agency is the central point in the REACH system: it manages the databases necessary to operate the system, co-ordinates the in-depth evaluation of suspicious chemicals and is…
