Phase I metabolites are not sufficiently hydrophilic or inactive. Phase I reactions provide a functional group or handle to the molecule that can undergo subsequent phase II reactions.
6.2.2 Phase II reactions
Importance: These reactions form water-soluble conjugated metabolites attaching small, polar and ioniza
ble endo
genous compounds to phase I metabolite. They are
as follows
– glucuronic acid conjugation – gulfate conjugation – conjugation with glycine, glutamine and other amino acids – glutathione conjugation – acetylation – methylation
If the parent compound has polar functional groups such as carboxylic (–COOH), hydroxyl (–OH), amino (–NH
), they are directly conjugated by phase II enzymes.

Methylation and acetylation terminate or alter biological activity of drug molecules. Glutathione conjugation protects the body against chemically reactive compounds or metabolites. Phase I and phase II reactions complement one another in detoxifying and facilitating the elimination of drugs and xenobiotics (Fig.6.1). E.g.: Marijuana

6.2.3 Sites of drug biotransformation
The liver is the most important organ for metabolism and majority of drugs undergo metabolism in the li
ver [4], e.g. propoxyphene, lidocaine, propranolol, meperidine, nitroglycerine, Etazocine etc. Another important site of metabolism especially for orally administered dugs is the intestine [5]. Examples include
1. Oral isoproterenol undergoes sulfate conjugation in intestinal wall.
2. Levodopa, chlorpromazine and DES are metabolized in GIT.
3. Ester prodrugs are metabolized by esterases and lipases in the intestine.
4. Sulfadiazine, aromatic azo and nitro drugs are metabolized by bacterial flora in
intestine and colon.
Other tissues include kidney, lungs, adrenal glands, placenta, brain and skin. But these sites are substrate selective, limited to particular types of reaction and their metabolic capabilities are not fully understood [6].

6.2.4 Role of cytochrome P450 monooxygenases in oxidative ransformations[7,8]
biot
Mixed-function oxidases or monooxygenases catalyze conversion of molecular oxy
gen into activated oxygen (Fig.6.2). Important components of this enzyme system
include:
1. Cytochrome P450: responsible for transferring an oxygen atom to the substrate
(R-H).
2. NADPH-dependent cytochrome P450 reductase
3. NADH-dependent cytochrome b

Components 2, 3 and cofactors NADPH and NADH supply reducing equivalents (elec­trons) needed in overall oxidative reaction.

Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases are chemically heme proteins. The heme portion is iron containing porphyrin called protoporphyrin–IX and the protein portion is apo­protein. This enzyme system is majorly present in liver and traces in lung, kidney, skin, placenta, intestine and adrenal cortex. Endoplasmic reticulum (EPR) under­goes homogenization and loses its structure to form small vesicular bodies called microsomes. Reduced form of this enzyme binds with carbon monoxide (CO) to form complex. This complex has a spectroscopic absorption maximum at 450nm. There­fore, this enzyme system is named “Cytochrome P450”.
Its ability to metabolize an almost unlimited number of diverse substrates by a variety of oxidation transformations is a key factor in drug metabolism. This is mainly due to substrate nonspecificity and multiple forms of enzyme (polymorphism). Some of these P450 enzymes are selectively induced by various chemicals and drugs like poly aromatic hydrocarbons (induces cytochrome P448), phenobarbital and tetra­chloro dibenzodioxin (induces cytochrome P450).

Drugs like propranolol (β-blocker), phenobarbital (sedative) and phenytoin (antiepi­leptic) undergo aromatic hydroxylation as major metabolic reaction (Fig.6.6). Other drugs that undergo aromatic hydroxylation include phenylbutazone (anti-inflamma­tory), phenformin (antidiabetic), 17α-ethinyl estradiol (oral contraceptive), S(-)warfa­rin (anticoagulant), amphetamine (CNS stimulant) etc. In most of the cases aromatic hydroxylation occurs at para position.
The substituent present on the aromatic ring influences the ease of hydroxyl­ation (Fig.6.7). Aromatic hydroxylation readily occurs in drugs with electron rich or activated rings. In amphetamine (CNS stimulant) an amino alkyl side chain releases electrons into the aromatic ring and activates the ring to undergo hydroxylation pref­erably at para position. Drugs with electron pullers on aromatic ring or deactivated rings undergo hydroxylation very slowly and in some cases become resistant. Cloni­dine (antihypertensive) undergoes little aromatic hydroxylation as the ring is deacti­vated due to presence of two chlorine atoms. Probenecid (uricosuric agent) does not undergo aromatic hydroxylation, as the aromatic ring is deactivated [10–14].

In drugs with two or more aromatic rings, hydroxylation occurs preferentially in the more electron rich ring. Diazepam and chlorpromazine are the two drugs that prefer­ably undergo hydroxylation in the electron rich ring (Fig.6.8).

6.3.1.1 Environmental pollutants and their toxicity
Environmental pollutants like polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) and tetrachloro dibenzo dioxin (T
CDD) carry a higher number of chlorine atoms that are responsible for resistance to aromatic hydroxylation and high lipophilicity. Therefore, they remain in active form in a biological system for longer periods resulting in toxicity [15].

6.3.1.2 Formation and fate of arene oxide
Arene oxide is formed when a double bond in aromatic moiety is epoxidized. It binds cov
alently with nucleophilic groups in proteins, DNA and RNA leading to toxicity (Fig.6.9). However, it can be detoxified in three ways i.e. spontaneous rearrangement to arenols, enzymatic hydration to trans-dihydrodiols and enzymatic conjugation with glutathione (GSH).
Arene oxide undergoes spontaneous rearrangement into arenol metabolite (Fig.6.10). This is accompanied by a novel intramolecular hydride (deuteride) migra­tion called “NIH shift” (NIH-National Institute of Health shift or 1, 2-deuteride shift). Arene oxide ring (epoxide ring) opens in the direction that generates most resonance stabilized carbocation (the charge on C-3 is resonance stabilized by methoxy group). In this mechanism, deuterium is retained in the molecule [16].

Arene oxide is detoxified by nucleophilic attack of water on the epoxide (arene oxide) and yields inactive trans–dihydrodiol metabolites (Fig.6.11). Hepatic micro­somal epoxide hydrase is the catalyst in this reaction and is inhibited by chemicals like cyclohexene oxide and trichloro propeneoxide (Fig. 6.12). Trans-dihydrodiols obtained from arene oxide undergo enzymatic dehydrogenation and conjugate with glucuronic acid. Naphthalene and benzo[a]pyrene are the examples for enzymatic dehydrogenation. Glutathione-S-transferases (GSH-S-transferases) catalyze the con­jugation of arene oxide with glutathione [17].

Arene oxides are highly electrophilic and reactive metabolites that react with nucleo­philic groups present in biomacromolecules like DNA, RNA and other cellular compo­nents. This reaction carries undesired modifications in biomacromolecules leading to irreversible damage and cellular toxicity [18]. Bromobenzene is a classic example of cellular toxicity caused by arene oxide metabolite (Fig.6.13).

6.3.2 Oxidation of olefins
The metabolic oxidation of olefinic double bonds leads to corresponding epoxide
ane). These epoxide metabolites are more stable than arene oxide metabolites
(oxir formed from aromatic compounds. Epoxide metabolites also undergo enzymatic hydration by epoxide hydrases into trans-1,2-dihydrodiols or 1,2-diols. In addition to enzymatic hydration, epoxides undergo conjugation reaction with glutathione [19]. Carbamazepine (antiepileptic) undergoes olefinic oxidation and yields epoxide metabolite which is pharmacologically active. Other drugs (Fig.6.14) which undergo olefinic oxidation are protryptyline (antipsychotic), cyproheptadine (H
-antihista-
1
minic), alcofenac (anti-inflammatory) and secobarbital (sedative).
Isolation of GSH or mercapturic acid metabolites in a biological system provides indirect evidence for the formation of epoxides (Fig.6.15). For example, styrene in rats produces two isomeric mercapturic acid metabolites resulting from nucleophilic attack of GSH on styrene epoxide [20].
