Abstract
(+)-6-(2-Chlorophenyl)-3-cyclopropanecarbonyl-8,11-dimethyl-2,3,4, 5-tetrahydro-8H-pyrido[4',3':4,5]thieno[3,2-f]triazolo[4,3-a] [1,4]diazepine (E6123) is a very potent platelet-activating factor (PAF) receptor antagonist and shows potent anti-PAF activities at the microgram level in a variety of animal models. In order to examine the pharmacokinetics of E6123 at low doses, establishment of a radioimmunoassay is required. On the basis of the metabolic pattern of E6123, we synthesized 6-[2-chloro-4-(3-carboxypropyl) phenyl]-3-cyclopropanecarbonyl-8,11-dimethyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-8H -pyrido[4',3':4,5]thieno[3,2-f][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a][1,4]diazepine 22 as a potential hapten. In the synthesis of 22, we developed butynyl carbamate as a piperidine ring N-protecting group to prevent possible side reaction, namely oxidation of the methylene at position 2. This protecting group is stable under usual basic and acidic conditions.
