Mass Spectral, Infrared and Chromatographic Studies on Designer Drugs of the Piperazine Class by Karim M. Hafiz Abdel-Hay a Diss Mass Spectral, Infrared and Chromatographic Studies on Designer Drugs of the Piperazine Class by Karim M. Hafiz Abdel-Hay A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Auburn, Alabama May 7, 2012 Approved by C. Randall Clark, Chair, Professor of Pharmacal Sciences Jack DeRuiter, Professor of Pharmacal Sciences Forrest Smith, Associate Professor of Pharmacal Sciences Angela Calderon, Assistant Professor of Pharmacal Sciences Abstract The controlled drug 3,4-methylenedioxybenzylpiperazine (3,4-MDBP) has regioisomeric and isobaric substances of mass equivalence, which have similar analytical properties and thus the potential for misidentification. The direct regioisomers of 3,4-MDBP include the 2,3- methylenedioxy substitution pattern and the indirect regioisomers include the three ring substituted methoxybenzoylpiperazines. The ethoxy and methoxymethyl ring substituted benzylpiperazines constitute the major category of isobaric substances evaluated in this study. The direct and indirect regioisomers of 3,4-MDBP and also isobaric substances related to MDBP were synthesized and compared to 3,4-MDBP by using gas chromatographic and spectrophotometric techniques. The GC-MS studies of the direct regioisomers and isobaric substances of 3,4-MDBP indicated that they can not be easily differentiated by mass spectrometry. The synthesized compounds were converted to their perfluoroacyl derivatives, trifluoroacetyl (TFA), pentafluoropropionyl amides (PFPA) and heptafluorobutryl amides (HFBA), in an effort to individualize their mass spectra and to improve chromatographic resolution. Derivatized 3,4-MDBP was not distingushed from its derivatized regioisomers or isobars using mass spectrometry. No unique fragment ions were observed for the various regioisomeric and the isobaric compounds. Gas chromatographic studies indicated that the optimum separation of regioisomers and isobaric compounds of 3,4-MDBP was obtained when a 100% trifluoropropyl methyl polysiloxane column was used at gradient temperature program ii rates. Exact mass determination techniques such as gas chromatography coupled to time of fight mass spectrometric detection (GC-TOF-MS) was used and proved to be successful in discriminating among isobaric compounds that have the same nominal mass but are different in their elemental composition and hence their exact masses. On the other hand, GC-TOF-MS is not a successful tool to differentiate between regioisomers that have both the same nominal and exact masses. In addition, the gas chromatography coupled to infrared detection (GC-IRD) proved to be an excellent tool in differentiating 3,4-MDBP from all of its regioisomers and isobars. Other ring substituted benzylpiperazines such as chloro, methoxy and methylbenzylpiperazines were prepared and their analytical properties were studied in this dissertation. Other chemical classes of piperazines were also synthesized and evaluated during this study. Some ring substituted benzoylpiperazines, 1-(phenyl)-2-piperazinopropanes (PPPs) that have amphetamine-like side chain and 1-(phenyl)-2-piperazinopropanones which have cathinone-like side chain (PPPOs) were synthesized in the lab. Their mass spectral, infrared and gas chromatographic separation and properties were studied too. In addition to that, isotope labeling experiments such as deuterium (D) and carbon 13 (13C) labeling were used to confirm mass spectrometric fragmentation mechanisms that result in the formation of some key fragment ions or to confirm the elemental composition of these fragment ions. iii Acknowledgments In the name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful I begin. First and foremost I want to say ―Alhamdolellah‖ thanks god for your help and giving me the power to achieve this humble piece of work.

Magriotis † The important requirement for approval of a new drug, in case it happens to be chiral, is that both enantiomers of the drug should be studied in detail, which has led synthetic organic and medicinal chemists to focus their attention on the development of new methods for asymmetric synthesis especially of relevant saturated N-heterocycles. On the other hand, the piperazine ring, besides defining a major class of saturated N-heterocycles, has been classified as a privileged structure in medicinal chemistry, since it is more than frequently found in biologically active compounds including several marketed blockbuster drugs such as Glivec (imatinib) and Viagra (sildenafil). Indeed, 13 of the 200 best-selling small molecule drugs in 2012 contained a piperazine ring.

    Drug Development Research 3:357-363 (1983) Potentiation of Yohimbine-Induced Lethality in Mice: Predictor of Antidepressant Potential Jeffrey B. Malick Biomedical Research Department, Stuart Pharmaceuticals, Division of ICI Americas, Inc., Wilmington, Delaware ABSTRACT Malick, J.B.: Potentiation of yohimbine-induced lethality in mice: Predictor of antidepres- sant potential. Drug Dev. Res. 3:357-363, 1983. The ability of antidepressant agents to potentiate the lethal or toxic effects of yohimbine in mice was evaluated. With very few exceptions, the antidepressants were the only agents that significantly enhanced yohimbine-induced lethality. All of the clinically effective anti- depressants, both typical (e.g., amine reuptake inhibitors, monoamine oxidase inhibitors) and atypical (e.g., mianserin, iprindole, bupropion, quipazine) drugs, produced a dose- related potentiation of yohimbine in mice. Representative anxiolytics and antipsychotics failed to potentiate yohimbine over a wide range of doses. Although several possible “false positives” (e.g., atropine, chlorpheniramine, and d-amphetamine) would be detected in this procedure, these same agents would be detected in other models (e.g., tetrabenazine antagonism, behavioral despair) considered predictive of antidepressant potential. Thus, the potentiation of yohimbine-induced lethality test in mice appears to represent a useful screening procedure for discovering potential antidepressant drugs. Key words: yohimbine, antidepressants, potentiation INTRODUCTION Antidepressants potentiate

It comprised 1- (substituted-phenoxyalkyl)-4-(2-methoxyphenyl)piperazine derivatives (1–5); 1,4-bis(substituted-phenoxy- ethyl)piperazine derivatives (6–8) and 1-(substituted-phenoxy)-3-(substituted-phenoxyalkylpiperazin-1- yl)propan-2-ol derivatives (9–11). All compounds were evaluated for affinity toward ␣1- and ␣2-receptors by radioligand binding assays on rat cerebral cortex using [3H]prazosin and [3H]clonidine as specific radioli- gand, respectively. Furthermore ␣1-antagonistic properties were checked for most promising compounds (1–5 and 10) by means of inhibition of phenylephrine induced contraction in isolated rat aorta. Antago- nistic potency stayed in agreement with radioligand binding results. The most active compounds (1–5) 3 displaced [ H]prazosin from cortical binding sites in low nanomolar range (Ki = 2.1−13.1 nM).
