Abstract During pregnancy, the female body undergoes important changes not only anatomi- cally, but also physiologically. These changes can lead to alterations in drug response and drug metabolism or even the emergence of new biological targets. Due to the scarcity of pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic data on newer and particularly chiral drugs, mainly "old drugs" are used during gestation, even though these com- pounds are not often the first choice treatment. In light of this situation, in vitro methods for the assessment of chiral drug metabolism during pregnancy is of significant interest and importance. With newly developed gas chromatographic (GC) methods for chiral and also non-chiral ap- plications, separation of drug enantiomers and their metabolites were successfully performed. Two model compounds, with poor knowledge of safe use in pregnancy, were selected to establish in vitro methods, methylphenidate (MPH), a commonly used drug for the treatment of the attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children and adults, and tramadol (TMD), a weak µ-receptor agonist for the treatment of moderate-severe pain. Both compounds are commercially available as racemic mixtures. For a few years, methylphenidate is also approved in enantiomeric form. Because samples with high water content or improper handling of chiral GC columns rapidly lead to column impairment and unreliable results, an option for chiral GC column state and performance check was needed. Since no test mixture for such conditions was available, a new chiral test mixture for cyclodextrin based (CD) stationary phases with versatile applicability was developed. The mixture consists of twelve enantiomer pairs with different functional groups and was tested on 14 chiral CD-columns. Successful analysis was obtained and no co-elution of any compound was observed. Generally best enantiomeric separation was achieved with β-CD capillary columns. Thereof, on one column all enantiomers were separated (BGB-176SE, BGB Analytics). On the column Beta DexTM 325 (Supelco), besides methylphenidate, every enantiomer pair was separated. On other columns (α-, β-, γ-CD) at least one enantiomer pair was baseline separated (Rs ≥ 1.5). The elution of the enantiomers still occurred in random order. Since different mechanisms are responsible for chiral recognition on cyclodextrins, separation efficiency and elution order are difficult to predict. However, the two enantiomeric forms of γ-valerolactone showed the same elution order on all columns. It is assumed to be the result of a i predominant inclusion-interaction with the cyclodextrin molecules. For automated, highly sensitive and robust detection and for quantitative anal- ysis of chiral drug molecules and their metabolites, new analytical protocols were established. Such a method consists of automated sample preparation coupled to GC-MSD procedures with large volume injections (LVI > 10 µL) and pre-column backflushing (BKF) for mild evaporation conditions. This allows the analysis of thermo-labile compounds like methylphenidate. Furthermore, the sample matrix with potential risk to contaminate the analytical column or disturbing the analysis, is removed with BKF and extends the column lifetime. Additionally, high boiling substances are analyzable with successful removal of solvent prior to reaching the analytical column and enhanced analyte sensitivity is obtained. This is of particular interest for chiral GC columns, susceptible to solvent-induced harm. Efforts to develop liquid chromatographic methods (HPLC) to complement the GC methods did not lead to advantages, because sensitivity and screening capability using the same method were reduced with HPLC. Automated sample preparation was performed using the miniaturized extraction method micro extraction by packed sorbent (MEPS), where total solvent volumes of about 1 mL and minimal analyte volumes of 10 µL allowed successful extractions from a broad range of different matrices like water or buffer (saliva, blood or plasma would also be possible). Sample preparation with MEPS was beneficial in analyte enrichment but also in exchange of solvent, since water has to be avoided for di- rect GC analyses. The resulting MEPS-LVI-BKF-GC-MSD methods for chiral and non-chiral applications exhibited high sensitivity for the model compounds methyl- phenidate and tramadol. Other compounds (amphetamine, ibuprofen, cocaine, pen- tobarbital, tolperisone) also were successfully analyzed with the same method and highly sensitive mass selective detection. With a set of enzymes, whose expression levels are known to be important dur- ing pregnancy (e.g. carboxylesterase, cytochrome P450 2D6, 3A4), the model com- pounds methylphenidate and tramadol were analyzed. Carboxylesterase 1 (CES1), a serine hydrolase, was in a first attempt investigated for stability and optimal activity conditions, which are already known for cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYP). In metabolic experiments with chiral MEPS-LVI-BKF-GC-MSD analysis, racemic methylphenidate (MPH) was mainly stereoselectively metabolized by CES1 to ri- talinic acid (RA), the predominant metabolite of MPH. Also esterification could be demonstrated by formation of the parent compound in presence of ritalinic acid, methanol and CES1. To our knowledge it is the first time to be demonstrated. Methylphenidate was just weakly metabolized by CYP2D6, but no metabolite for- mation was detected and no stereoselectivity could be determined. With CYP3A4 no metabolism was observed. Tramadol showed low CES1 mediated metabolism, but without the appearance of formed metabolites or stereopreference. In contrast, CYP2D6

  • Pharmaceuticals Through the Looking Glass
    Pharmaceuticals Through The Looking Glass. By Anita R. Maguire,Department of Chemistry, Analytical and Biological, Chemistry Research Facility, University College, Cork. This lecture will firstly give an overview of the pharmaceutical industry in Ireland, then outline how drugs are discovered and, in particular, how this process has changed in recent years, and finally focus on the significance of asymmetry in bioactive compounds used as pharmaceutical agents, illustrating this with some of our recent research in this area. The reference to the Lewis Carroll’s famous work Though the Looking Glass may seem obscure at the outset – is it simply a ploy to make a Chemistry lecture appear more attractive by raising curiosity in the audience? Or does it refer to the nature of scientific research where everything appears ‘curiouser and curiouser..’. By the end of the lecture the relevance should become clear. Pharmaceutical Industry in Ireland Globally the pharmaceutical sector is one of the most successful industrial sectors.1 It is distinguished from other industrial sectors by the very high investment of its sales on R&D, typically 15-20% of sales are reinvested in discovering and developing new drugs, much higher than the typical single digit investment in most sectors. The reason for this is very simple – discovering and developing new drugs is an extremely resource intensive activity, requiring large numbers of highly skilled staff, state-of- the-art equipment and facilities, and involves high risk to a company who invest enormous amounts in a drug which may fail at the final hurdle. High standards required by regulatory authorities to ensure the safety of pharmaceuticals require costly and lengthy studies into efficacy, toxicity etc.

  • How to Obtain Enantiopure Drug Substance Through Crystallization?
    How to obtain enantiopure drug substance through crystallization? Chirality is defined as the geometric property of an object, like a molecule, of not being superimposable with its mirror image. The two mirror images of a chiral molecule are called enantiomers. Enantiomers have essentially identical physical and chemical properties. However, in chiral environments, such as the receptors and enzymes in the body, enantiomers may behave differently and therefore exhibit different pharmacokinetic properties and exert quantitatively or qualitatively different pharmacological or toxicological effects. Chemical synthesis of chiral molecules usually delivers a racemic mixture, i.e. a 50:50 mixture of two enantiomers. In the past, chiral drugs were usually developed as racemic mixtures since separation into the individual enantiomers was technically difficult to achieve. However, technological advances have opened up the possibility of producing single enantiomers on large scale. Since the development of racemic mixtures raises issues of acceptable manufacturing control and adequate pharmacologic and toxicologic assessment, it has become common practice to develop chiral drugs as single enantiomers rather than as racemic mixtures. The development of procedures to obtain single enantiomers therefore constitute an important component of contemporary development programs for chiral drug substances. Essentially, enantiopure drug substance may be obtained in three ways, namely through separation, asymmetric synthesis or chiral crystallization. Chiral crystallization is an attractive approach in early development, as it is cost-effective, broadly applicable and easily scaled up. Chiral resolution through crystallization may be achieved in several ways. One technique is conversion of the enantiomeric substance into a diastereomeric salt (diastereomeric resolution). Diastereomers are substances that contain more than one chiral center and are not mirror images of one another.

    I Synthesis and Evaluation of2,3-Dihydroquinazolinones as Dual Inhibitors of Angiogenesis and Cancer Cell Proliferation Gary Michael Chinigo Monroe, Connecticut B. S., University of Michigan at Ann Arbor, 2000 A Disseltation Presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Chemistry University of Virginia January 2007 II © Copyright by Gary Michael Chinigo All Rights Reserved January 2007 III Abstract Dual inhibitors of cancer cell proliferation and angiogenesis have recently shown remarkable potential for the clinical treatment of several cancers. Inspired by this success, we have employed traditional medicinal chemistry techniques to develop a 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4- one lead molecule with promising anti-proliferative and anti-angiogenic activity. These molecules, which we originally derived from thalidomide, have evolved into an extremely effective (sub-nanomolar) prospective drug candidate for the treatment of cancer. Described herein is an account of the many structural modifications made to this lead compound along with the corresponding effects on competitive 3H colchicine displacement from tubulin, microtubule depolymerization, and cytotoxicity toward several human cancer and endothelial cell lines. From these evaluations we were able to design 3rd generation analogs with significantly enhanced potency. Subsequent animal testing suggests these molecules are relatively non-toxic, bio-available, and efficacious at treating tumors in vivo – evidence which supports the possibility of our most active analogs being evaluated clinically. In addition to the SAR studies, we were compelled to develop synthetic methods enabling us to synthesize the enantiomers of these molecules. Exploration of several different approaches eventually led us to a chiral auxiliary based method of synthesis.

He is the utmost reason that I got interested in the field of artificial intelligence and machine learning as well as research in general. My first brush with machine learning was his “Applied Machine Learning” class I took in 2014 in Indiana University and even now remains the favorite class of my educational career. His passion for teaching and research has been one of the foremost reasons for me pursuing a career in academia. The most important principle that I have learned from him is that “although having good papers is important, being a good scholar is more important”. He has also taught me to take failure in the correct spirit, to learn from it and finally convert the failure into success.
