Book excerpt: An integrated view of chiral drugs from concept and synthesisto pharmaceutical properties Chirality greatly influences a drug's biological and pharmacological properties. In an effort to achieve more predictable results from chiral drugs, the Food and Drug Administration now requires that these medicines be as pure as possible, which places great demands on drug synthesis, purification, analysis, and testing. To assist researchers in acquiring the essential knowledge to meet these rigid guidelines, Chiral Drugs focuses on three vital chiral technologies asymmetric synthesis, biocatalytic process, and chiral resolution to offer details on the basic concepts, key developments, and recent trends in chiral drug discovery, along with: The history of chiral drugs development and industrial applications of chiral technologies A section listing twenty-five approved or advanced-trial chiral drugs that lists each drug name, chemical name and properties, a representative synthetic pathway, pharmacological characterizations, and references An interdisciplinary approach combining synthetic organic chemistry, medicinal chemistry, and pharmacology Nearly two-thirds of the drugs on today's market are chiral drugs. Reducing and eliminating their negative characteristics is an ongoing and serious challenge for the pharmaceutical industry. With its well-balanced approach to covering each important aspect of chirality, Chiral Drugs champions important strategies for tipping the medical scale in a positive direction for the production of more effective and safer drugs.

Download or read book Chirality in Drug Design and Synthesis written by C. Brown and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chirality in Drug Design and Synthesis is a collection of papers that discusses the property of asymmetry in the structural and synthetic chemistry of natural products, including the significance of chirality in medicinal chemistry. These papers examine the need for the preparation and study of pure enantiomers of chiral drug substances and their mechanism of interaction with enzymes and receptors. These papers also investigate the techniques in studying these interactions, as well as analyze the methods for their synthesis in enantiomerically pure form. One paper discusses the pharmacological and pharmacokinetic analyses made that point to the differences in the activity and disposition of enantiometric pairs. Another paper reviews the implications of the neglect of stereoselectivity at the different levels during the examination process of racemic drugs. Since no general guidelines exists for the development of drugs with chiral centers, one paper suggests a case-by-case approach in evaluating the safety and efficacy of drugs, particularly as regards how isomers differ in their effects. This collection is suitable for the pharmacologist, medicinal chemists, toxicologists, mechanistic chemists and synthetic organic chemists.

Download or read book Chiral Liquid Chromatography written by w Lough and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While working as a chromatographer in the pharmaceutical industry, it became apparent to the editor that there was a pressing need for a comprehensive reference text for analysts working on the resolution of enantiomers by liquid chromatography (LC). This need arises from the fact that, whereas previously it was very difficult to determine enantiomers by direct means, there is now a wide choice of direct LC methods. At the same time, regulatory authorities have been changing their attitudes towards the administration of pharmaceuticals as racemates, partly because it is now possible to study the individual enantiomers. Clearly this abundance of new information needs to be rationalized. More importantly, the chiral LC systems which are commercially available or readily accessible to the practising chromatographer needed to be reviewed and, to a much greater extent than in existing reviews or books, discussed in terms of their practical application. Accordingly this book is very much orientated towards the practical aspects of these commercially available and readily accessible chiral LC systems. To this end, it is written for practising chromatographers by a team of practising, experienced chromatographers who have spent many years tackling the problems presented by resolving enantiomers by LC. The practical aspects of common chiral LC systems cannot be fully understood if discussed in isolation.
Download or read book What you need to know about Chiral Drugs Nomenclature Pharmacology Mechanisms Metabolism Toxicology etc An Overview written by DR. HAKIM SABOOWALA and published by Dr.Hakim Saboowala. This book was released on 2019-08-14 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Approximately more than half of the drugs recently/currently in use are chiral compounds and near 90% of the last ones are marketed as racemates consisting of an equimolar mixture of two enantiomers. Although they have the same chemical structure, most isomers of chiral drugs exhibit marked differences in biological activities such as: · Pharmacology, · Toxicology, · Pharmacokinetics, · Metabolism etc. Therefore, it is important to promote the chiral separation and analysis of racemic drugs in pharmaceutical industry as well as in clinic in order to eliminate the unwanted isomer from the preparation and to find an optimal treatment and a right therapeutic control for the patient. An attempt has been made to review the nomenclature, pharmacology, toxicology, pharmacokinetics, metabolism etc. of some usual chiral drugs as well as their mechanisms of these properties. Additionally, different techniques used for the chiral separation in pharmaceutical industry as well as in clinical analyses have also been considered. …….Dr.H.K.Saboowala.M.B.(Bom) M.R.S.H.(London)

This book was released on 1997-04-11 with total page 736 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past fifteen years have seen a revolution in the field of stereochemistry, with breakthrough analytical techniques in enantiomeric separation profoundly affecting drug development and use. This practical reference written by leading researchers focuses on the important roles chirality and stereoisomerism play in drug development efforts--presenting for the first time a comprehensive overview of this rapidly evolving area of pharmacological research. The book explores analytical, pharmacological, and regulatory topics in dealing with the theory and practice of stereochemistry in the pharmaceutical industry today. This exciting, broad-appeal treatment extends from the analytical viewpoint in enantiomeric separation to the regulatory issues involved in the "racemate-versus-enantiomer" debate. The authors include numerous examples and case studies, and integrate material from a wide range of studies, publications, and workshops. The introductory chapters outline the pharmacological effects of stereochemistry, cover stereochemistry in drug metabolism, and discuss problems inherent in the duality of enantiomers--chemically identical yet spatially different molecules. Contributions on the specific aspects of chirality and drug activity explore the toxicological effects of stereoselectivity, illustrate how an understanding of the stereochemical composition of certain drugs can help avoid problems, and offer tips on new clinical applications for existing drugs. A full chapter is devoted to research opportunities in the development of new chirally pure drugs. Other practical research topics range from the preparation of chirally pure compounds to the analytical determination of stereochemical composition, to applications of circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy. Regulatory issues concerning the development and approval of stereoisomeric drugs are discussed in the final chapters. This section offers an international perspective as well as a historical review of the ongoing debate surrounding regulatory guidelines. Impact of Stereochemistry on Drug Development and Use is an essential reference for medicinal and analytical chemists, pharmacologists, drug metabolism and pharmacokinetic scientists, and personnel of regulatory agencies. It is also a useful text for graduate students in stereochemistry, and for anyone who wants to keep up with the swift pace of change in this dynamic field.
