| | DROPERIDOL Usage And Synthesis |
| Description | D roperidol is a butyrophenone that has potent antidopaminergic (D2)
activity and mild α2-blocking actions. It produces sedation and anxiolysis and
is an effective antiemetic. A dverse effects include
vasodilatation and hypotension, and at higher doses, dystonic reactions can
occur. D roperidol was used for premedication and in neuroleptanaesthesia
until reports of death from long QT syndrome led to its withdrawal in 2001. It
has recently been reintroduced and licenced at lower doses for prevention of
postoperative nausea and vomiting. D roperidol has an onset of 3–10 min
after i.v. injection and duration of action of 6–12h. It undergoes hepatic
metabolism, but approximately 10% of the drug is excreted unchanged in the
urine. | | Chemical Properties | Pale Yellow Solid | | Originator | Dehydrobenzperidol,Janssen,W. Germany,1963 | | Uses | A D1, D2 dopamine receptor antagonist; butyrophenone antipsychotic and anti-emetic. | | Uses | H2 antihistamine | | Uses | A D1DR and D2DR inhibitor. | | Uses | The neuroleptic droperidol possesses antipsychotic, sedative, and antishock action. It potentiates the action of drugs for narcosis. In psychiatric practice, droperidol is used for psychomotor excitement and hallucinations. The principal use of this drug lies in anesthesiology
for neuroleptanalgesia in combination with fentanyl. It is used in premedication as well as in
surgical operations and post-operational circumstances. | | Definition | ChEBI: An organofluorine compound that is haloperidol in which the hydroxy group has been eliminated with the introduction of a double bond in the piperidine ring, and the 4-chlorophenyl group has been replaced by a benzimidazol-2-on-1-yl group. It is used in the
management of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting, and in conjunction with an opioid analgesic such as fentanyl to maintain the patient in a calm state of neuroleptanalgesia with indifference to surroundings but still able to cooperate with the surgeo
. | | Manufacturing Process | A mixture of 10 parts of γ-chloro-4-fluorobutyrophenone, 5.5 parts of 1-
(1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-4-pyridyl)-2-benzimidazolinone, 4 parts of sodium
carbonate, and 0.1 part of potassium iodide in 176 parts of 4-methyl-2-
pentanone is stirred and refluxed for 64 hours. The cooled reaction mixture is
filtered and the solvent is evaporated from the filtrate to leave an oily residue
which is dissolved in toluene. The toluene solution is filtered and the solvent is
evaporated. The resultant residue is recrystallized from a mixture of 32 parts
of ethyl acetate and 32 parts of diisopropyl ether to give 1-[1-[(4-fluorobenzoyl)propyl]-1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-4-pyridyl]-2-benzimidazolinone
hydrate melting at about 145°-146.5°C. | | Brand name | Inapsine (Akorn);Dehydrobenzperidol;Diaperidol;Inopsin. | | Therapeutic Function | Tranquilizer | | General Description | Droperidol, 1-{1-[3-(p-fluorobenzoyl)propyl]-1,2, 3,6-tetrahydro-4-pyridyl}-2-benzimidazolinone(Inapsine), may be used alone as a preanestheticneuroleptic or as an antiemetic. Because of its very shortactingand highly sedating properties, its most frequent useis in combination (Innovar) with the narcotic agent fentanyl(Sublimaze) preanesthetically. | | General Description | Droperidol, 1-1-[3-(p-fluorobenzoyl)propyl]-1,2,[3,6-tetrahydro-4-pyridyl]-2-benzimidazolinone(Inapsine). Centrally acting acetylcholinesteraseinhibitors may increase the risk of antipsychotic-relatedEPS. CNS depressants may produce additive sedativeeffects (benzodiazepines, barbiturates, antipsychotics,ethanol, opiates, and other sedative medications).Droperidol in combination with certain forms of inhalationanesthetics may produce peripheral vasodilatation and hypotension.Metoclopramide may increase the risk of EPSproduced by droperidol. | | Biochem/physiol Actions | D1, D2 dopamine receptor antagonist; butyrophenone antipsychotic and anti-emetic. | | Synthesis | Droperidol, 1-[1-[3-(p-fluorobenzoyl)propyl]-1,2,3,6,4-piridyl]-2-benzymidazolinone (6.3.11), is synthesized from 1-benzyl-3-carbethoxypiperidin-4-one (3.1.47),
which is reacted with o-phenylendiamine. Evidently, the first derivative that is formed
under the reaction conditions, 1,5-benzdiazepine, rearranges into 1-(1-benzyl-1,2,3,6-
tetrahydro-4-piridyl)-2-benzymidazolone (6.3.9). Debenzylation of the resulting product
with hydrogen over a palladium catalyst into 1-(1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-4-piridyl)-2-benzimidazolon (6.3.10) and subsequent alkylation of this using 4??-chloro-4-fluorobutyrophenone
(6.3.4) yields droperidol (6.3.11) [47¨C49].
