Cipralisant ( GT-2331 ) is a by the company Gliatech developed drug from the group of H 3 antihistamines . This substance was one of the first clinically investigated H 3 antihistamines and was tested in phase II studies for the treatment of attention deficit / hyperactivity disorder in the early 2000s. However, there was no further clinical investigation and approval for the therapy after MSD Sharp & Dohme took over Gliatech .

pharmacology

Although cipralisant was originally identified as an antagonist at the histamine H 3 receptor , later receptor-activating effects could also be observed by this substance. This behavior of acting either as an antagonist or as an agonist , depending on the investigation , is also known as functional selectivity . This substance is therefore not an H 3 antihistamine in the strict sense.

chemistry

Stereochemistry

Cipralisant has two stereocenters on the cyclopropane ring. Thus, cipralisant can exist in four different stereoisomeric forms. The (1 S , 2 S ) -form [(1 S , 2 S ) -4- (2- (5,5-dimethylhex-1-ynyl) -cyclopropyl) imidazole] could be identified as the pharmacologically active stereoisomer .

synthesis

The synthesis of Cipralisant takes place in a multistage synthesis starting from trans - urocanic acid by esterification with 2-butanol . After the imidazole ring has been protected by tritylation , the esterification product is reacted with trimethylsulfonium iodide to form the cyclopropane derivative and then saponified. After a racemate resolution , the reaction product is reduced to (1 S , 2 S ) -2- (1-trityl-1 H -imidazol-4-yl) -cyclopropanecarbaldehyde. After conversion to (1 S , 2 S ) -4- [2- (5,5-Dimethylhex-1-ynyl) -cyclopropyl] -1-trityl-1 H -imidazole, the trityl protective group is split off hydrolytically, with the eutomer des Cipralisants is obtained.
