The metabolism of aclidinium bromide, a novel long-acting antimuscarinic drug for the maintenance treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder, has been investigated in liver microsomes and hepatocytes of mice, rats, rabbits, dogs, and humans. Due to the rapid hydrolysis of this ester compound, two distinct radiolabeled forms of aclidinium were studied. The main biotransformation route of aclidinium was the hydrolytic cleavage of the ester moiety, resulting in the formation of the alcohol metabolite (M2, LAS34823) and carboxylic acid metabolite (m3, LAS34850), which mainly occurred non-enzymatically. By comparison, the oxidative metabolism was substantially lower and the metabolite profiles were similar across all five species examined. Aclidinium was metabolized oxidatively to four minor primary metabolites that were identified as monohydroxylated derivatives of aclidinium at the phenyl (M4) and glycolyl (m6 and m7) moieties of the molecule. The NADPH-dependent metabolite m4 involved the loss of one of the thiophene rings of aclidinium. Incubations with human recombinant P450 isoforms and inhibition studies with selective chemical inhibitors and antibodies of human P450 enzymes demonstrated that the oxidative metabolism of aclidinium is primarily mediated by CYP3A4 and CYP2D6. Additionally, up to eight secondary metabolites were also characterized, involving further hydrolysis, oxidation, or glucuronidation of the primary metabolites. Also, the liver oxidative metabolism of the alcohol metabolite (LAS34823) resulted in the production of one hydroxylated metabolite (M1) mediated by human CYP2D6, whereas the acid metabolite (LAS34850) was not metabolized enzymatically, although a minor non-enzymatic and NADPH-dependent reduction was observed.
Novel peptidomimetic peptide deformylase (PDF) inhibitors of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Emergence of MDR-TB and XDR-TB led to the failure of available anti-tubercular drugs. In order to explore, identify and develop new anti-tubercular drugs, novel peptidomimetic series of Mtb–peptide deformylase (PDF) inhibitors was designed and synthesized. In vitro antimycobacterial potential of compounds was established by screening of compounds against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv strain using MABA. Among them, ester series of compounds 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d, and 4e were found most active, with compound 4c being highly active and exhibiting minimum inhibitory concentration of 6.25?μg/ml against M.?tb H37Rv strain. Additionally, the compounds were docked to determine the probable binding interactions and understand the mechanism of action of most active molecules on Mtb-peptide deformylase (PDF), which is involved in the mycobacterium protein synthesis.

A visible-light-promoted synthesis of quinoxalin-2(1H)-ones has been developed using 9-mesityl-10-methylacridinium perchlorate as an organo-photocatalyst. The atmosphere-controlled method (Ar/air) enabled the selective synthesis of hydroxyl- and acyl-containing quinoxalin-2(1H)-ones under mild reaction conditions without the use of any metal catalysts or toxic reagents. A fluorescent labelling experiment showed that hydroxyl-containing quinoxalin-2(1H)-ones may have utility in various biological applications as potent fluorophores. (Figure presented.).
