Synthesis of 6-Aminosalicylic Acid (VIII)

Electrochemical Synthesis of 5-Aminosalicylic Acid from 5- Nitrosalicylic Acid in Alkaline Media

5-Aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) is currently prepared by electrochemical reduction of 5-nitrosalicylic acid (5-NSA) in acidic media. In this work, electrolytic reduction of 5-NSA in alkaline media is presented. Reactionconditions and parameters such as anode and cathode electrodes, electrolyte type, reaction time, temperature,current, and the pH for isolation of product are investigated. The yiel...

Synthesis and evaluation of a prodrug of 5-aminosalicylic acid for the treatment of ulcerative colitis

Objective(s): This study is aimed to design and synthesize a prodrug of 5-aminosalicylic acid and evaluate its ameliorative effect on experimental ulcerative colitis (UC).Materials and Methods: 5-Aminosalicylic acid-alanine (5-ASA-ALA) was synthesized and characterized. Its stability study was conducted in rat plasma and in the gastroint...

Synthesis of a novel PEGylated colon-specific azo-based 4- aminosalicylic acid prodrug

Objective(s): 4-aminosalicylic acid (4-ASA) is an isomer of mesalazine that has recently been shown to be effective against inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and more specifically, ulcerative colitis. However, the majority of orally administered 4-ASA is readily and extensively absorbed from the stomach and small intestine, so only a small amount is transported to the ...
