Characterization of the neurotoxic potential of m-methoxy-MPTP and the use of its N-ethyl analog as a means of avoiding exposure to a possible Parkinson-causing agent
摘要:
1-Methyl-4-(3-methoxyphenyl)-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (2) produced persistent depletion of striatal dopamine in mice after four daily injections, although it was less potent than 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP). MPTP has been implicated as a cause of Parkinsonism in drug abusers who inadvertently self-administered it and in industrial chemists who were exposed to it. Our results suggest that the m-methoxy compound has the same neurotoxic potential to cause destruction of nigrostriatal dopamine neurons that would lead to Parkinsonian symptoms in humans. In contrast, 1-ethyl-4-(3-methoxyphenyl)-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (11) had no effects on striatal dopamine in mice, even at doses 8 times those of MPTP. A method of preparing 11 and using it as an intermediate in the synthesis of potential analgesic drugs, thus avoiding a potentially neurotoxic intermediate, is described.

synthetic approach to 9β-methyl-2-alkyl-7-oxo-5-arylmorphans has been developed utilizing alkylation of the metalloenamine of 1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-4-aryl-1-alkylpyridines with 2-(chloromethyl)-3,5-dioxahex-1-ene (Okahara's reagent).
