Comparison of photoreactions of flutamide in acetonitrile and 2-propanol solvents in the absence of cage-forming compounds

Flutamide(2-methyl-N-[4-nitro-3-(trifluoromethylphenyl)]propanamide) is a widely used anti-cancer drug. It has been reported that photodermatosis is occasionally induced when an individual taking flutamide is exposed to sunlight. In this study, we found that flutamide undergoes different photoreactions in two different solvents: acetonitrile and 2-propanol. The photo-induced nitro-nitrite rearrangement was the predominant reaction when a flutamide solution in acetonitrile was irradiated with UV light, and phenoxy radicals and nitrogen monoxide were generated. The nitrogen monoxide recombined with the phenoxy radical at the ortho position and was oxidized by the oxygen dissolved in the acetonitrile. The final product was o-nitrophenol derivative. However, the photoreduction of the nitro group followed by solvolysis of the trifluoromethyl group was observed when a flutamide solution in 2-propanol was irradiated with UV light. The three fluorine atoms in the trifluoromethyl group were eliminated by being nucleophilically attacked by a solvent molecule, resulting in an ester bond with 2-propanol being formed.

A convenient protocol for the C-N cross-coupling of aliphatic amides and iodobenzene is demonstrated using a simple and inexpensive Co(C2O4)·2H2O/N,N′-dimethylethylenediamine (DMEDA) catalytic system in water. Good yields of N-arylated products were isolated (up to 85%) and the protocol has been successfully applied to the synthesis of the anticancer drug, flutamide.

A facile and efficient reductive acylation of aromatic nitro compounds to corresponding anilides using a sodium sulfite-carboxylic acid system for the first time has been reported. The sodium sulfite reagent provides the colorless reductant in combination with stoichiometric amounts of carboxylic acid and enables the formation of anilides from nitroarenes without any additives in good to excellent yields with high purities and simple work-up. Furthermore, this protocol provides a novel and complementary access to some industrially important chemicals in kilogram scale under mild conditions.

, p. 200 - 201 (2014/05/06)
Flutamide has been synthesised conveniently in high yields and by an economically beneficial method. Benzotrifluoride was first nitrated and the product was reduced and acylated in one pot in the presence of iron powder and isobutyric acid to produce 3-trifluoroisobutyranilide. Finally, flutamide was produced by further nitration.

, p. 859 - 864 (2007/10/03)
Isobutyric acid in the presence of cyanuric chloride and N-methylmorpholine was converted into active ester 3 at 0-5°C, and it was subsequently treated with 3-aminobenzotrifluoride 4 at 25°C to furnish corresponding amide 5. This amide finally, on nitration, produced the desired product flutamide, 2-methyl-N-[4-nitro-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]propionamide 6 in good yield. By-product 2,4,6-trihydroxy-1,3,5-triazine 7 was converted into the useful starting material cyanuric chloride 1 by refluxing with N,N-diethylamine and POCl3. Copyright Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
