Rice >6700 drugs <200 drugs studied in the environment WHY PHARMA? ■ Biological activity ■ Non-targeted action ■ Pseudo-persistence ■ Synergistic effects ■ Endocrine disruption ■ Antimicrobial resistance ■ Increased use with growing and ageing population WHY CHIRAL PHARMA? ■ >50% of pharmaceuticals are chiral ■ Evidence on enantioselective toxicity in humans ■ No tests at enantiomeric level required in ERA (+)-enantiomer (-)-enantiomer Sedative Teratogen Importance of chirality: Investigation of HIGH Chiral Active Substances MANUFACTURE LOW EU Directive 75/318/EEC DEVELOPMENT DISTRIBUTION PHARMA LIFE CYCLE MATERIALS USE (HUMAN & VET) ERA for Vet MPs EU Directive 81/852/EEC DISPOSAL ERA for Human MPs EMEA/CHMP/203831/2005 Chiral pharma in the environment CONSUMPTION WASTEWATER ENVIRONMENT Racemic chiral drug TREATMENT DEGRADATION EXCRETION DISCHARGE Non-racemic Non-racemic drug & drug & by- metabolism metabolites products I Stereoselective DRINKING WATER TREATMENT CONSUMPTION WATER WITHDRAWAL Non-racemic Non-racemic drug & drug & by- by-products III products II The enantiomeric signature of a chiral molecule can change throughout its environmental life-cycle affecting its fate and toxicity ■ Antidepressants: Fluoxetine, venlafaxine, mirtazapine, citalopram and their metabolites ■ Stimulants: Ephedrine/pseudoephedrine ■ NSAIDs, analgesics: Ibuprofen, tramadol CHIRAL ■ Beta-blockers: Atenolol, propranolol, metoprolol, betaxolol, pindolol, sotalol, timolol, carazolol, alprenolol, PHARMA ■ Beta-adrenergic agonists: Salbutamol, clenbuterol, terbutaline ■ Antiarrhythmic agents: Mexiletine ■ Illicit drugs: Amphetamine, methamphetamine, MDMA, MDA, MDEA OUR OBSERVATIONS: Chiral drugs are enriched with one enantiomer EXPOSURE Stereoselective fate of ERA chiral drugs in the HAZARD environment is observed OH * CH3 Enantioselective transformation * HN of ephedrine in water and its CH 3 ecotoxicological relevance Ephedrine/ Pseudoephedrine OH H OH H 1S, 2S(+)- H H 1R,2R(-)-Pseudoephedrine N N Pseudoephedrine • Synthetic enantiomer CH3 CH3 • Natural enantiomer H H • Humans: similar activity to its enantiomer • Humans: weak CNS CH3 CH3 effects, decongestant 1S,2S(+)-pseudoephedrine 1R,2R(-)-pseudoephedrine OH H OH H 1S,2R(+)-Ephedrine H H 1R, 2S(-)-Ephedrine N N • Synthetic enantiomer • Natural enantiomer CH3 CH3 • Humans: weak activity on H H • Humans: bronchodilator β1,2 and 3 adrenoceptors CH3 CH3 and abused stimulant 1S,2R(+)-ephedrine 1R,2S(-)-ephedrine OH 1R,2S(-)-ephedrine * CH3 Enantioselective transformation Department of Chemistry * HN of ephedrine in water and its 1S,2S(+)-pseudoephedrineCH 3 ecotoxicological relevance Ephedrine/ Pseudoephedrine 1S,2R(+)-ephedrine 1R,2S(-)-Ephedrine and 1S,2S(+)-pseudoephedrine loads in sewage (sum of loads from 7 WWTPs) RP-chiral (CBH) LC-QqQ (H2O, 1 mM NH4OC, 10% IPA) RP (C18)-UPLC-QqQ 1R,2S(-)-ephedrine is more toxic to Daphnia Magna and Selenastrum Capricornutum and Tetrahymena Thermophila than 1S,2S(+)- pesudoephedrine B.

NERC AMR in the Real World Impact of stereochemistry of antimicrobial agents on their environmental fate, biological potency and the emergence of resistance Our hypothesis: Stereochemistry of AAs determines their environmental fate and biological effects RR-(-)- chloramphenicol was marketed in 1950s as the most potent isomer Enterococcus faecalis RR-(-)- with chloramphenicol chloramphenicol is acetyltransferase not the most potent selective towards RR- isomer anymore!
