354 BASIC CONCEPTS IN MEDICINAL CHEMISTRY
5. Ciprofloxacin is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic effective in the treatment of infections caused by gram-negative pathogens. A series of analogs (A–D) were synthesized in a research labo­ratory and tested at Abbott Laboratories. The testing results indicated that only analog A was effective in killing gram-negative pathogens, and the rest were completely inactive. Provide a structural rationale for why you think that the other analogs were inactive.
6. RAD-1901 is an investigational selective estrogen receptor degrader that acts as an estro­gen receptor antagonist in breast and uterine tissues and an estrogen receptor agonist in bone. Unfortunately, it undergoes rapid metabolism to a series of inactive metabolites. Propose at least two different isosteric modifications that will limit or prevent this rapid metabolic inactivation and provide a rationale for how each modification will decrease the potential for metabolic inactivation.

7. Cannabinoid SARs were first reported in the early 1940s. A molecule possesses cannabi­noid activity if it includes the following requirements:
y Benzopyran ring (oxygen atom can be replaced by nitrogen atom) y Nonplanar alicyclic ring (3, 4 position). Planar ring reduces activity. A bulky substituent
at the 4 position is acceptable instead of a nonplanar alicyclic ring.
y Substituents on the alicyclic ring are acceptable without loss of activity. y The alicyclic ring attachment to the benzopyran ring can be substituted by a heterocy-
clic ring.
y In the aromatic ring, esterification of the phenol is acceptable. y The length of the aromatic side chain can vary, but a three-carbon chain is minimally
required. Branching of this chain enhances potency. Attachment of the side chain to the
aromatic ring can be via an oxygen atom.
The structure of tetrahydrocannabinol is drawn below. Box each of the structural

requirements and label A–F.
B. Evaluate the structure of the tetrahydrocannabinol analog against the SAR required
for cannabinoid activity. Determine if this analog possesses cannabinoid activity and provide a brief structural rationale for your answer.
8. The thiazide diuretics bind to Cl– site of the distal tubular Na+/Cl– Cotransporter system and prevent sodium and chloride reabsorption. Structural modification can lead to enhanced diuretic effect and/or duration of action. Using the list of structural modifications below, analyze each pair of thiazide diuretics and answer the questions posed.
y N-2 Substitution decreases polarity and increases duration of action y Lipophilic groups at C-3 enhance diuretic effect and increase duration of action
356 BASIC CONCEPTS IN MEDICINAL CHEMISTRY
y Saturation of the 3,4-double bond enhances diuretic effect y An electron withdrawing group at C-6 enhances diuretic effect (e.g., chloro, CF3) y Unsubstituted C-7 sulfamoyl group (SO2NH2) enhances diuretic effect
Pair #1 (Chlorothiazide and Hydrochlorothiazide): Which drug has the greater diuretic
effect? Provide a brief structural rationale for your answer.
Pair #2 (Chlorothiazide and Benzthiazide): Which drug has a longer duration of action?
Provide a brief structural rationale for your answer.
Pair #3 (Methylclothiazide and Bendroflumethiazide): Which drug has a longer duration of
action? Provide a brief structural rationale for your answer.
9. The fibric acid derivatives stimulate lipoprotein lipase (lowering triglyceride levels) and are
PPARα agonists (increasing high-density lipoprotein levels). The fibrates bind to PPARα via an ion–dipole interaction with a tyrosine residue within PPARα. Fibrates with a para chloro substituent or chloro containing substituents have significantly longer half-lives. Evaluate the following pair of fibric acid derivatives and answer the questions posed.
A. Which drug is able to interact with PPARα? Provide a structural rationale for your
answer. If a drug is unable to interact with PPARα, then determine which Phase I meta­bolic transformation(s) must occur for the drug to be in its active form and interact with its biological target?

10. In patients diagnosed with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) there is a downregu­lation of prostacyclin synthetase resulting in less PGI2 production. This vasoactive pros­taglandin binds to and activates the IP receptors leading to important vasodilation and antiproliferative activity. PGI2 (aka epoprostenol) and two synthetic PGI2 analogs that are used in the management of PAH are drawn below.
Evaluate each drug molecule and each SAR in the table. Place a check mark or comment in
the table if the drug molecule follows the SAR.

DRUG EVALUATION
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
After completing this chapter, students will be able to
• Evaluate a drug structure and identify the key structural features required to address a specific structure-based question.
• Identify the appropriate concepts applicable to answering specific structure-based questions.
• Correctly apply basic medicinal chemistry concepts to drug- and structure-based questions.
The Structural Analysis Checkpoint questions in Chapters 2 to 9 allowed you to sequentially answer questions pertaining to venetoclax and elamipretide as new concepts were introduced. By the end of Chapter 9, whole molecule drug evaluations had been conducted for these two drugs. In this final chapter, twelve additional drugs, drug pairs, or drug classes have been selected for similar whole molecule drug evaluation. Unlike the previous chapters, in which the questions focused specifically on one or two concepts, the questions here challenge you to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the selected drugs and select the concepts that are applicable to the scenarios provided.
The selected examples represent three levels of evaluation.
Level 1: evaluates the chemical properties of a single drug molecule.
1.
2. Level 2: evaluates a pair of structurally related drugs and requires the reader to compare and contrast their chemical properties.
3. Level 3: evaluates multiple drugs within a single chemical/pharmacological class and requires an evaluation of the structure activity relationships (SARs) of the drug class.
The answers to all of these questions can be found in the Appendix.
ALISKIREN (LEVEL 1)
Aliskiren is an orally active agent used in the treatment of hypertension. This nonpeptide drug acts as an inhibitor of renin, the enzyme that converts angiotensinogen (its endogenous sub­strate) to angiotensin I. Biologically inactive, angiotensin I is rapidly converted to angiotensin II

by angiotensin-converting enzyme. Angiotensin II is a potent agonist when bound to its receptor and produces significant vasoconstriction as well as an increase in blood pressure. In the presence of aliskiren, angiotensinogen is not converted to angiotensin I, so less angiotensin II is produced to activate the angiotensin II receptor. Consequently, less vasoconstriction occurs, and a drop in blood pressure results.
1. Conduct a structural evaluation of aliskiren, focusing on the boxed functional groups, and use the information in the grid to inform your answers to the questions that follow.

2. Aliskiren is marketed as the pure 2S, 4S, 5S, 7S enantiomer. Circle all of the chiral carbon atoms and determine if diastereomeric or geometric isomers are possible.
3. Although aliskiren is administered orally, its oral bioavailability is 2.5% and is very poorly absorbed. Using the information in the structure evaluation grid, provide a structural rational for this unfortunate property.
4. Approximately 25% of the absorbed dose of aliskiren is excreted in the urine unchanged. It is unknown how much of an absorbed dose is metabolized, and several metabolites from

5. Renin catalyzes the cleavage of a specific Leu-Val peptide bond within the structure of angiotensinogen. The structure of aliskiren contains functional groups that mimic the side chains for these two amino acids. The hydrolyzable peptide bond (found between Leu­Val) has been replaced by a nonhydrolyzable hydroxyethylene group in aliskiren. Circle the functional groups that mimic the amino acid side chains of these two amino acids and box the nonhydrolyzable hydroxyethylene group.
6. Aliskiren can be coadministered with other antihypertensive agents to provide better hypertension management. Amlodipine is a second-generation dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker used in the treatment of hypertension. Aliskiren and amlodipine are both plasma protein bound (47% to 51% and 93% to 97%, respectively). How likely is it that a plasma protein binding interaction will occur if these drugs are coadministered?
ARIPIPRAZOLE (LEVEL 1)
Shown below is the structure of aripiprazole, a serotonin receptor modulator used for the treatment of depression, schizophrenia, autism, mania, and bipolar disorder.

1. Identify all of the acidic and basic functional groups, provide the normal pKa range for each of the identified functional groups, and identify if each functional group would be primarily ionized or unionized at a urine pH of 5.6.
2. Identify all of the remaining functional groups and indicate how each group contributes to the overall water solubility or the overall lipid solubility of aripiprazole.
3. Using your answers from the previous two questions, provide an explanation as to why aripiprazole can be administered orally for the indications previously listed.
4. The acidity and basicity of functional groups can vary based on the presence or absence of adjacent functional groups. The normal pKa range for an aromatic amine is 2 to 5. Conduct a structural evaluation of aripiprazole and predict whether the pKa of the aromatic amine present would be expected to be at the lower or upper end of this range. Provide a rationale for your prediction.
Drug molecules that are highly plasma protein bound may undergo a drug interaction due
5. to the displacement of one drug molecule from a plasma protein by another drug mol­ecule. Shown below are the structures of tolbutamide and losartan. Both of these drugs are highly plasma protein bound. Aripiprazole is also highly plasma protein bound (> 99%). Would you expect there to be a drug interaction between aripiprazole and either tolbuta­mide or losartan?
6. Draw a water-soluble organic salt of aripiprazole.
7. The structure of aripiprazole does not contain any chiral carbon atoms and thus does not have enantiomers. Its structure contains 10 prochiral methylene (CH2) groups that could potentially be converted to chiral centers. Using the known metabolic pathways discussed in Chapter 8, identify which of these 10 prochiral methylene atoms are most likely to gen­erate a chiral center on metabolism.
8. Assume that the boxed functional groups of aripiprazole form four key binding interactions with a serotonin receptor. Further assume that these binding interactions occur with the side chains of Tyr, Asp, Ile, and Gln. Using this information, identify four possible bind­ing interactions between aripiprazole and the given amino acids. Assume that this binding interaction occurs at a physiologic pH of 7.4.
