چکیده

Glucuronides of piperazine hydroxylamines are rarely reported in the literature, and even more rarely are their structures unambiguously identified. One major metabolite was detected by liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry-radioactivity in urine from monkeys treated with the aryl piperazine oral hypoglycemic agent 9-[(1S,2R)-2-fluoro-1-methylpropyl]-2-methoxy-6-(1-piperazinyl) purine hydrochloride (1). The mass spectrum of this metabolite indicated that it was both monooxygenated and glucuronidated on the piperazine ring. Possible structures included the N- or O-glucuronic acid conjugates of a carbinolamine, hydroxylamine, or N-oxide. Treatment with beta-glucuronidase gave a monooxygenated derivative of the parent compound. 1H NMR analysis of either the glucuronic acid conjugate or the monooxygenated product provided insufficient evidence to unambiguously determine their structures. Incubation of 1 with pig liver microsomes resulted in formation of the same monooxygenated derivative derived from beta-glucuronidase treatment of the glucuronide metabolite. This in vitro system was used to generate sufficient material for analysis by 13C NMR, and the metabolite was identified as a hydroxylamine derivative 2. Incubation of the hydroxylamine with monkey liver microsomes and uridine diphospho-5'-glucuronic acid gave the same glucuronic acid conjugate as that observed in monkey urine. 13C NMR analysis of this biosynthetic product led to its unequivocal structure assignment as the O-glucuronic acid conjugate of the hydroxylamine 3.

Metabolism of (2S)-pterosin A: identification of the phase I and phase II metabolites in rat urine.

The metabolic profile of the potent hypoglycemic agent, (2S)-pterosin A (1), in rat urine via intragastrical oral administration was investigated. In total, 19 metabolites (M1-M19) were identified. Among these, 16 metabolites were characterized by high-performance liquid chromatography solid-phase extraction-tube transfer-NMR, and seven metabolites were further isolated from the treated urine t...

Formation and elimination of sulphamethoxazole hydroxylamine after oral administration of sulphamethoxazole.

The formation and elimination of sulphamethoxazole hydroxylamine in relation to the pharmacokinetics of the parent compound and its N4-acetyl metabolite were investigated in six healthy subjects after a single oral dose of 800 mg sulphamethoxazole. The apparent half-lives of sulphamethoxazole and its metabolites were approximately 10 h, indicative of formation rate-limited metabolism. The mean ...

TW01003, a piperazinedione derivative designed as an antimitotic agent, exhibited potent anticancer and antiangiogenesis activities in mice. However, oral administration of this compound in rats led to poor systemic bioavailability which suggested that in vivo efficacy might come from its metabolites. This report describes the identification of TW01003 metabolites in pig and Wistar rats. Follow...

Chemistry and Biology of Hydroxamic Acids

The action of salicylhydroxamic acid and its halogen derivatives against tuberculosis, fungi, trypanosomae, and the biosynthesis of cholesterol are described. Their hypoglycemic and phospholipid lowering actions are also mentioned. The author suggested, in 1948, the use of salicylhydroxamic acid I (X = Y = Z = R = H)—called SH—as an antitubercular agent [26]. The suggestion was based on the hyp...

Comparison of the metabolism and toxicity of dapsone in rat, mouse and man.

The metabolism and toxicity of dapsone was compared in vitro and in vivo in rat, mouse and man. Metabolism was assessed by high-pressure liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry and methemoglobin formation has been used as a toxic endpoint. The greatest toxicity in vitro was seen in microsomes prepared from male Wistar rats (36.6 +/- 1.5% methemoglobin), although toxicity was also seen in micros...
