(3S)-3-Hydroxyquinidine, the major metabolite of the Cinchona alkaloid quinidine, was prepared by synthetic chemical modification or microbial oxidation of quinidine.The structure of this metabolite has been demonstrated to be (3S)-3-hydroxyquinidine by 1H and 13C NMR, IR, UV and mass spectral analysis.Previously published comparisons of the 13C NMR spectra of 3-hydroxyquinidine and model compounds were used to establish the absolute stereochemistry of the metabolite (see ref. 8).This assignment has been verified by single-crystal X-ray analysis of (3S)-3-hydroxyquinidine methanesulphonate.The gas- and solution-phase conformational preference of the metabolite derived from molecular modelling and NOE studies are compared with the conformation observed by X-ray crystallography.
