Q

what does phase 1 metabolism functionalization require?

A

Require NADH or NADPH (electron source) and O2as cofactors

•NADPH-P450 reductase(or cytochrome b5) enzyme used as electron carrier

Q

what prevents or slows oxidation?

A

electron withdrawing groups (e.g. Cl, N+R3, COOH, SO2NHR) slow or prevent oxidation

Q

where does oxidation occur in a saturated carbon?

A

Oxidation at terminal methyl groups –“omega” (w)
•Oxidation at the next to the last carbon –“omega –1” (w-1)
inserts a hydroxyl

Q

what happens in the oxidation of a carbon to a heteroatom?

A

Oxidation of carbon attached to O, S, N
–also termed N-, O-,S-dealkylation
–note initial oxidation of C-H followed by elimination

16
Q

For primary amines on a tertiary carbon:

A

OnlyN-oxidation possible as an a-carbon oxidation is not available

17
Q

how are aromatic amines generated?

A

reduction of nitro groups (Ar-NO2-> Ar-NH2)
•reductive cleavage of azocompounds (Ar-N=N-R -> Ar-NH2)
•hydrolysis of aromatic amides (Ar-NHC(=O)R -> Ar-NH2)

18
Q

what do primary aromatic amines give?

A

give N-hydroxyl and nitroso compounds

19
Q

what do tertiary aromatic amines give?

A

N-dealkylations, N-oxides

20
Q

what do secondary aromatic amines give?

A

secondary aromatic amines: N-dealkylations,
N-hydroxylations
•both relatively rare in drugs

21
Q

what is desulfursation?

A

Desulfurisation: C=S conversion to C=O

22
Q

what is the Hepatic Microsomal Flavin Containing Monooxygenases?

A

Present in endoplasmic reticulum of liver cells
•OxidisenucleophilicSand NFGs
•Different mechanism to Sand Noxidation by CYP450, but products are similar

23
Q

where is MAO-A found?

A

MAO-A is found in the adrenergic nerve endings

24
Q

where is MAO-B found?

A

platelets

25
Q

what does the brain contain mostly- A OR B

A

MAO-B

26
Q

What does MAO-A have selectivity for?

A

MAO-A has selectivity for serotonin, epinephrine, norepinephrine and 5-hydroxytryptamine, and other monoamines with phenolic aromatic rings

27
Q

what does MAO-B have selectivity for?

A

MAO-B has selectivity for non–phenolic amines

28
Q

what kind of enzymes catalyze most reductions?

A

CYP450 enzymes

29
Q

what do aldehydes and ketones reduce to?

A

Aldehyde and ketones give 1o and 2o alcohols,

30
Q

what do nitro and azo reductions give?

A

Nitro and azo reductions lead to amino derivatives

31
Q

Reduction of N-oxides ?

A

Reduction of N-oxides to corresponding 3oamines

32
Q

Reduction of sulfoxides?

A

Reduction of sulfoxides to sulfides
