    Notes: Abstract Purpose. Deoxoartemisinin is a semisynthetic antimalarial with potential for treatment of multiple drug resistant malaria. Metabolism studies were conducted to aid in future drug development. Methods. Microbial model systems were employed which have been shown to be good predictors of mammalian drug metabolites. Metabolism studies using rats were also performed. Results. Three microbial metabolites of deoxoartemisinin were identified (2, 3, and 4). Metabolite 3 was also found in rat plasma. HPLC/MS analyses were performed on the rat plasma using 2, 3, and 4 as standards. All metabolites were thoroughly characterized by 1H and 13C-NMR. An additional rat plasma metabolite was revealed and it was shown not to be 9α-hydroxyartemisinin. Conclusions. Deoxoartemisinin was metabolized to three microbial metabolites. Metabolism by rats showed the presence of two metabolites in the plasma, one of which was the same as the microbial metabolite.

    Notes: Abstract Microbial metabolism studies of the semisynthetic antimalarial anhydrodihydroartemisinin (1), have shown that it is metabolized by a number of microorganisms. Large scale fermentation with Streptomyces lavendulaeL-105 and Rhizopogonspecies (ATCC 36060) have resulted in the isolation of four microbial metabolites. These metabolites have been identified as a 14-carbon rearranged product (2), 9β-hydroxyanhydrodihydroartemisinin (3), 1 l-epi-deoxydihydro-artemisinin (4), and 3α-hydroxydeoxyanhydrodihydroartemisinin (5). Microbial metabolites were completely characterized by spectral methods, including 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR spectroscopy. The structure and stereochemistry of metabolite 2 were unequivocally established by X-ray crystallographic analysis. Thermospray mass spectroscopy/high-performance liquid chromatographic analyses of plasma from rats used in mammalian metabolism studies of 1 have shown microbial metabolite 3 to be the major mammalian metabolite. In vitroantimalarial testing has shown metabolite 3 to possess antimalarial activity.

    Notes: The 13C-NMR. spectra of a number of colchicine derivatives are given comprising examples of the normal series (4→10), iso series (11→16) and colchicine series (17), which were either reported in the literature or obtained by partial synthesis or degradation reactions. The 13C-NMR. assignments were made by comparisons with known compounds and selective single-frequency offresonance decoupling experiments. Selective proton decoupling experiments have also allowed assignments of the H - C(11) and H - C(12) protons of the iso and colchicine series.

    Notes: Bromination of (-)-4-hydroxy-N-methylmorphinan-6-one (3), prepared from natural morphine, with 1 mol of bromine in acetic acid, afforded the 1-bromo ketone 5. The structure of 5 was assigned by 13C-NMR.spectroscopy, and confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis of its hydrobromide salt. It is suggested that monobromination of synthetic (±)-2,4-dihydroxy-N-formylmorphinan-6-one (7) takes in principle a similar course, although the 13C-NMR.spectrum of the primary reaction product 9 could not be measured because of insolubility in commonly used solvents. Monobromination of (-)-4-acetoxy-N-formylmorphinan-6-one (12) of the natural series, and of (±)-2,4-diacetoxy-N-formylmorphinan-6-one (8) of the synthetic series, followed by treatment of the monobrominated ketones with potassium carbonate in methanol resulted in closure of the O-bridge, and afforded after acid hydrolysis, the corresponding 4,5-epoxy-morphinan-6-ones (-)-16 and (±)-17 respectively. This variation of the ring closure reaction represents a novel and convenient method to convert 4-hydroxymorphinan-6-ones into their corresponding 4,5-epoxymorphinan-6-ones, without involving aromatic bromination and with only 1 mol of bromine.

    Notes: Revision der Struktur von «Epoxycolchicin»Die für natürliches «Epoxycolchicin» vorgeschlagene Struktur 2 muss aufgrund einer Kristall-Röntgenstrukturanalyse zu derjenigen des cyclischen Acetals 3 abgeändert werden. Es wird vorgeschlagen, den Namen «Epoxycolchicin» aus der Literatur zu streichen, da er irreführend ist.

    Notes: Thermospray LC/MS methods with internal standardization were developed for the quantification of the antimalarial arteether and six of its metabolites at the 1-10 μg/ml level in liver microsome preparations without the use of solvent extraction. The thermospray mass spectra of arteether and most of its metabolites exhibited strong [M + NH4]+ and [M - OR]+ peaks arising from the molecular ion adduct and the loss of the alkoxy or hydroxy group of the side chain. In addition to the six metabolites for which authentic reference standards were available, three additional metabolites were detected. The major metabolites of arteether were found to be dihydroartemisinin, deoxydihydroartemisinin, 3-hydroxydeoxydihydroartemisinin, two isomers of hydroxyarteether, and 3-hydroxydeoxyarteether. Deoxyartheether was not found at significant concentrations in the microsome preparation.

Large-scale fermentation with Aspergillus niger (ATCC 10549) and Nocardia corallina (ATCC 19070) have resulted in the isolation of four microbial metabolites which have been characterized using two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (2D-NMR) techniques. These metabolites have been identified as “AEM1” (2), 3α-hydroxydeoxyarteether (3), 3α-hydroxydeoxydihydroartemisinin (4), and deoxydihydroartemisinin (5).

    Notes: Abstract Microbial metabolism studies of the antimalarial drug arteether (1) have shown that arteether is metabolized to six new metabolites in addition to those previously reported (3). Large-scale fermentations with Cunninghamella elegans (ATCC 9245) and Streptomyces lavendulae (L-105) have resulted in the characterization of these metabolites primarily by two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (2D-NMR) methods as 9β-hydroxyarteether (2), a ring rearrangement metabolite (3), 3α-hydroxy-11-epi-deoxydihydroartemisinin (4), 9α-hydroxyarteether (5), 2α-hydroxyarteether (6), and 14-hydroxyarteether (7). Thermospray mass spectroscopy/high-performance liquid chromatographic analyses have shown that four of these metabolites (2, 5, 6, 7) are also present in rat liver microsome preparations.

    Notes: The thermospray mass spectra of arteether and 16 of its potential metabolites all showed strong [M + NH4]+ ions and with only a few exceptions these compounds also showed spectral peaks corresponding to [M + NH4 - HOR]+ and [M + H - HOR]+, where OR represents the alkoxy or hydroxy group at the 12-position. A method for quantifying the metabolites was developed in which the plasma was spiked with an internal standard (the propyl ether analog of arteether), extracted using a C-18 solid-phase cartridge, then subjected to thermospray high-performance liquid chromatographic/mass spectrometric analysis using selected ion monitoring and a C-18 reversed-phase analytical column. Following the intravenous administration of arteether (11.6 mg kg-1), the plasma was found to contain 12 metabolites of arteether in the 10-1000 ng ml-1 range 15 min post-injection, and within 60 min two of these metabolites attained higher concentrations than that of the parent compound, while several other of the metabolites attained concentrations similar to the parent compound. The pseudo-first-order half-life of arteether was found to be 10.0 ± 0.6 min, while the apparent half-lives of most of the metabolites were in the 15-30 min range. Nine of these metabolites were identified by comparison to authentic reference standards and the structures of three remaining metabolites were tentatively assigned from their spectral and chromatographic properties. The metabolic pathways leading to these 12 metabolites was a rather complex, multiple-step process, but most of the metabolites arose from an enzymatic oxidation at one of three sites; 3α, 9α, or the CH2 of the side-chain. Conversion of the endoperoxide group to an cyclic ether was not a major pathway. The in vitro antimalarial activity of reference standards of several of the metabolites was determined and all of those tested were found to be active in the low nanogram per milliliter range.
