    Notes: Raclopride, an antipsychotic 6-methoxysalicylamide (= 2-hydroxy-6-methoxybenzamide) derivative, was shown by titrimetry and UV-pholometry to exist in zwitterionic form at physiological pH. Calculations revealed that the neutral and zwitterionic forms differ considerably in their conformational behavior, the latter form being energetically favored by an intramolecular phenolate-ammonium ionic bond. These findings indicate that raciopride and other halogenated 6-melhoxysalicylamides with a highly acidic phenolic group may not resemble other ortho-methoxybenzamides in their stereoelectronic structure and mode of binding to the dopamine D2 receptor.

    Notes: The microscopic ionization behavior of piroxicam was investigated using two different approaches, i.e., direct UV spectroscopy and an indirect analogue approach (deductive method). The best microscopic pKa values (pKa12 = 4.60, pKa21 = 5.40, pKa22 = 2.72, and pKa11 = 1.92) were obtained by the deductive method using as pKa22 the pKa of the enolic O-methylated piroxicam 2. The results show remarkable electrostatic effects in the protonation/deprotonation equilibria, a marked increase in the acidity of the enolic function (2.68 pKa units) being caused by the pyridinium group. The electronic structure of piroxicam was studied based on 1H-NMR chemical shifts at various ionization states, indicating an extended electron conjugation through the molecule. The partition measurements in octan-1-ol/H2O of zwitterionic compound 3 (the pyridyl N-methyl derivative of piroxicam (1)) suggest that the two opposite charges in zwitterionic piroxicam are indeed in a close intramolecular proximity.

    Notes: Using the five therapeutic oxicams 1-5, we showed that isosteric replacements result in remarkable changes in the physicochemical and structural properties of congeners. Thus, the acidity of the phenolic OH group is relatively higher in the oxicams containing a pyridinyl moiety, i.e. in piroxicam (1), tenoxicam (2), and lornoxicam, (3), due to their zwitterionic nature. This consequently influences their lipophilicity profile at different ionization states. Furthermore, partitioning behaviour in octan-l-ol/H2O and heptane/H2O systems suggests an internal H-bond between the enolic OH and the amide C=O group. The anionic oxicams readily partition into the octanol phase at pH 7.4 and not at all into the heptane phase. Only the partition coefficients of oxicams measured in the heptane/H2O system, but not in the octanol/H2O system, correlate with their transfer across the blood-brain barrier. This implies that only the neutral form of oxicams crosses the blood-brain barrier.

    Notes: The objectives of this study were to gain insights into the structure-lipophilicity relationships of peptides and to propose an improved model for estimating their lipophilicity. First, existing databases were extended to obtain the distribution coefficients of a total of 208 free or protected peptides (di- to pentapeptides). The polarity parameters (Λ) of 23 free amino acids and 19 protected amino acids (AcNH—CHR—CONH2) and of their side chains were calculated from experimental distribution coefficients and computed molecular volumes. An analysis of the polarity parameters revealed that the hydrophobicity of the amino-acid side chains is largely reduced due to the polar field of the backbone. The polarity parameters of the peptides were then obtained in a similar manner and shown to be highly correlated with the sum of the polarity parameters of their side chains, i.e., the lipophilicity of peptides can be calculated from their molecular volume and the sum of their side-chain polarities using the regression established for each individual series of peptides (Fig. 1). This last restriction is essential since the polarity and lipophilic increment of a NH—C*H—CO unit were shown to decrease with increasing length of backbone.
