Definitions
- the present invention relates to novel nefazodone analogues. More specifically, it relates to deuterated nefazodone analogues and method for preparing the said analogues.
- the deuterated nefazodone analogues show improved biological activities, preferably anti-depressant activity.
- Nefazodone (SERZONE®), 2-[3-[4-(3-chlorophenyl)-1-piperazinyl]-propyl-]5- ethyl-2,4-dihydro-4-(2-phenoxy-ethyl)-3H-1 ,2,4-triazol-3-one hydrochloride is a novel antidepressant chemically unrelated to tricyclic or tetracyclic antidepressants and the selective serotonin uptake inhibitors in current use. Nefazodone bears following structural formula:
- Nefazodone is an atypical anti-depressant which was first marketed by Bristol- Myers Squibb in 1994. Nefazodone is a phenylpiperazine compound and is related to trazodone. It has been described as a serotonin antagonist and reuptake inhibitor (SARI) due to its combined actions as a potent serotonin 5- HT2A receptor and 5-HT2C receptor antagonist and weak serotonin- norepinephrine-dopamine reuptake inhibitor (SNDRI). It was discontinued in 2003 in some countries, due to the small possibility of hepatic (liver) injury. Drug- induced hepatic injuries were associated with a risk of elevated need for a liver transplant, or even death. On May 20, 2004, Bristol-Myers Squibb discontinued the sale of SERZONE in the United States.
- Nefazodone acts primarily as a potent antagonist of the serotonin 5-HT2A receptor and to a lesser extent of the serotonin 5-HT2C receptor. It also has high affinity for the a1-adrenergic receptor and serotonin 5-HT1A receptor, and relatively lower affinity for the a2-adrenergic receptor and dopamine D2 receptor. Nefazodone has low but significant affinity for the serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine transporters as well, and therefore acts as a weak serotonin- norepinephrine-dopamine reuptake inhibitor (SNDRI).
- SNDRI serotonin- norepinephrine-dopamine reuptake inhibitor
- Nefazodone has negligible activity at muscarinic acetylcholine receptors, and accordingly, has no anti-cholinergic effects.
- nefazodone The bioavailability of nefazodone is low and variable, about 20%. Its plasma protein binding is approximately 99%, but it is bound loosely. Nefazodone is extensively metabolized after oral administration by n-dealkylation and aliphatic and aromatic hydroxylation, and less than 1% of administered nefazodone is excreted unchanged in urine. Half-life of the parent compound is 2 to 4hr.
- US4338317 discloses a process for the manufacture of Nefazodone free base and Nefazodone hydrochloride.
- the process involving the reaction of 2- piperazinylalkyltriazolone with suitable phenoxyalkylhalide to form Nefazodone free base.
- the Nefazodone free base is then converted to Nefazodone hydrochloride by using hydrogen chloride.
- CA1233826 discloses a purported improved process in which the Nefazodone free base is produced by reacting a phenoxyalkylcarbamate with an N-substituted hydrazide of a carboxylic acid.
- US5900485 describes another process for preparing nefazodone from semicarbazide dihydrochloride and triethyl orthopropionate in the presence of hydrochloride.
- CA1198436, US4338317 describes a process for the preparation of nefazodone hydrochloride involve the preparation of nefazodone free base first and then the conversion of it to nefazodone hydrochloride.
- ADME absorption, distribution, metabolism and/or excretion
- Deuterium ( 2 H or D) is a stable, non-radioactive isotope of hydrogen. 2 H forms stronger bonds with carbon compared to hydrogen. In some cases, the increased bond strength imparted by 2 H can positively impact the ADME properties of a pharmaceutical compound, creating the potential for improved efficacy, safety, and/or tolerability of the pharmaceutical compound. At the same time, because the size and shape of 2 H are essentially identical to those of hydrogen, replacement of hydrogen by 2 H would not be expected to affect the biochemical potency and selectivity of the pharmaceutical compound as compared to the original chemical entity that contains only hydrogen (Graham et al., “Deuterated drugs: where are we now?”, Expert Opinion on Therapeutic Patents, 2014, 24(10): 1067-1075.)
