Therapeutic Function

Antinauseant

World Health Organization (WHO)

Meclozine, an antihistamine with antiemetic activity, was introduced in 1953 for the treatment of nausea. The action taken in Indonesia in 1963 resulted from concern regarding its possible teratogenic potential. Subsequent epidemiological studies have been widely accepted, however, as dispelling this suspicion. Meclozine remains widely available in both prescription only and over-the-counter preparations and in some countries the licensed indications include management of nausea of pregnancy.

Synthesis

Meclizine, 1-[(4-chlorphenyl)methyl]-4-[(3-methylphenyl)phenyl]piperazine (16.1.16), is synthesized by reductive amination of a mixture of 3-methylbenzaldehyde with 1-(4-chlorbenzhydryl)piperazine using hydrogen over Raney nickel.

BF3·Et2O as a metal-free catalyst for direct reductive amination of aldehydes with amines using formic acid as a reductant

A versatile metal- and base-free direct reductive amination of aldehydes with amines using formic acid as a reductant under the catalysis of inexpensive BF3·Et2O has been developed. A wide range of primary and secondary amines and diversely substituted aldehydes are compatible with this transformation, allowing facile access to various secondary and tertiary amines in high yields with wide functional group tolerance. Moreover, the method is convenient for the late-stage functionalization of bioactive compounds and preparation of commercialized drug molecules and biologically relevant N-heterocycles. The procedure has the advantages of simple operation and workup and easy scale-up, and does not require dry conditions, an inert atmosphere or a water scavenger. Mechanistic studies reveal the involvement of imine activation by BF3and hydride transfer from formic acid.

A traceless perfluoroalkylsulfonyl (PFS) linker for the deoxygenation of phenols

(Equation presented) The synthesis of a novel perfluoroalkylsulfonyl (PFS) fluoride is described for use as a traceless linker in solid-phase organic synthesis. Attachment to the resin and subsequent coupling of a phenol affords a stable arylsulfonate that behaves as a support-bound aryl triflate. Palladium-mediated reductive cleavage of a wide variety of phenols generated the parent arenes. The resin-bound aryl triflate was shown to be stable to reductive amination conditions, and the traceless synthesis of Meclizine is reported.
