Loperamide Chemical Properties,Uses,Production
Originator
Imodium,Janssen,UK,1975
Uses
Loperamide is presently used more often as an antidiarrheal drug than as an analgesic, and it is also included in the list of over-the-counter drugs because of its insignificant action on the CNS. It reduces intestinal smooth muscle tone and motility as a result of binding to intestinal opiate receptors. It is used for symptomatic treatment of severe and chronic diarrhea of various origins. The most popular synonym for loperamide is imodium.
Definition
ChEBI: A synthetic piperidine derivative, effective against diarrhoea resulting from gastroenteritis or inflammatory bowel disease.
Manufacturing Process
23.6 parts of 2-oxo-3,3-diphenyl-tetrahydrofuranare melted at 100°C in an
oil-bath and gaseous hydrogen bromide is introduced into it during 3 hours.
The reaction mixture is cooled and triturated in benzene. The product is
filtered off, washed with petroleum ether and dried in an exsiccator, yielding
4-bromo-2,2-diphenylbutyric acid; MP 127.5%.
To a stirred suspension of 16 parts of 4-bromo-2,2-diphenylbutyric acid in 150
parts of chloroform are added dropwise 16 parts of thionyl chloride and the
whole is stirred and refluxed for 2 hours. The reaction mixture is evaporated,yielding 4-bromo-2,2-diphenyl-butyrylchloride as a residue.
60 parts of 4-bromo-2,2-diphenylbutyrylchloride are dissolved in 400 parts of
toluene and gaseous dimethylamine is introduced slowly into the solution
while cooling (temperature is kept at about 0°C). The introduction is ceased
when dimethylamine escapes from the cooler, and stirring is continued for 2
hours at ordinary temperature. The precipitated product is filtered off and
dissolved in a minimum quantity of water. The product is extracted with
chloroform. The extract is dried and evaporated. The residue solidifies on
triturating in 4-methyl-2-pentanone. The solid is filtered off and dried, yielding
dimethyl -(tetrahydro-3,3-diphenyl-2-furylidene)ammonium bromide; MP 169°
to 171.5°C.
A mixture of 6.33 parts of 4-(p-chlorophenyl)-4-piperidinol, 8 parts of sodium
carbonate, 0.2 part of potassium iodide and 240 parts of 4-methyl-2-
pentanone is distilled azeotropically. Then there are added 12.12 parts of
dimethyl-(tetrahydro-3,3-diphenyl-2-furylidene)ammonium bromide (from the
preceding step) and the whole is stirred and refluxed for about 15 hours. The
reaction mixture is filtered hot and the filtrate is evaporated.
The oily residue is dissolved in 2-propanol and to this solution is added an
excess of 2-propanol previously saturated with gaseous hydrogen chloride.
The whole is evaporated and the oily residue is warmed in diluted hydrochloric
acid solution. Upon the addition of toluene, the salt is precipitated. It is
filtered off, boiled in acetone, and filtered off again after cooling, yielding 4-
(p-chlorophenyl)-4-hydroxy-N,N-dimethyl-α,α-diphenylpiperidine-1-butyramide
hydrochloride; MP 222.1°C.

Therapeutic Function
Antidiarrheal
World Health Organization (WHO)
Loperamide, an inhibitor of intestinal peristalsis, was introduced in 1975 for the treatment of acute and chronic diarrhoea. In many countries its use was discouraged in young children. In late 1989, treatment of infants in Pakistan was associated with 19 cases of paralytic ileus, 6 of which have been fatal. This has subsequently led the major manufacturer to withdraw all drop formulations of the drug worldwide as well as the lower dose syrup forms from countries where there is a programme for the control of diarrhoeal diseases. The WHO Control of Diarrhoeal Diseases Programme recommends that loperamide should not be used in children below five year of age. (Reference: (LJJ) Letter to WHO from Johnson & Johnson, , , 21 June 1990)
General Description
Loperamide (Imodium) is a 4-phenylypiperidine with amethadone-like structure attached to the piperidine nitrogen. It acts as an antidiarrheal by directly binding tothe opiate receptors in the gut wall. Loperamide inhibitsacetylcholine and prostaglandin release, decreasing peristalsisand fluid secretion thus increasing the GI transit time andreducing the volume of fecal matter.Loperamide is sufficiently lipophilic to cross the blood-brain barrier, yet itdisplays no CNS-opioid effects. The reason for this is that itis actively pumped out of the brain via the P-glycoproteinpump (MDR1). Knockout mice with the P-glycoproteinpump genetically removed were given radiolabeled loperamideand sacrificed 4 hours later. The [3H]loperamideconcentrations were measured and compared with wild-typemice. A 13.5-fold increase in loperamide concentration wasfound in the brain of the knockouts. In addition, the micelacking the P-glycoprotein pump displayed pronouncedsigns of central opiate agonism. Loperamide is availableas 2-mg capsules for treatment of acute and chronic diarrhea.Recommended dosage is 4 mg initially, with 2 mgafter each loose stool for a maximum of 16 mg/d.
Clinical Use
Loperamide is a synthetic opioid subjected to extensive first-pass metabolization after oral administration. Therefore little intact drug reaches the systemic circulation and the central nervous system. Loperamide has no centrally mediated analgesic efficacy, but may have a clinically useful analgesic effect via peripheral opioid receptors . Systemic and central opioid side effects are widely missing. Orally administered loperamide acts locally in the gut by inhibition of intestinal motility and secretion . Besides the strong μ- opioid action, calcium and calmoduline antagonism are involved in the antidiarrheal activity. The compound is used in doses of 4–8 mg for the treatment of acute and chronic diarrhea and for the management of colostomies and ileostomies . Adverse effects include nausea, dry mouth, dizziness. High doses can induce toxic megacolon and paralytic ileus. The compound has no abuse and dependence potential and is meanwhile available as over the counter (OTC) product .
Synthesis
Loperamide, 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-hydroxy-N,N-dimethyl-|á,|á-diphenyl-1-
piperidinebutyramide (3.1.55), proposed here as an analgesic, is synthesized by the alkylation of 4-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-hydroxypiperidine (3.1.50) using N,N-dimethyl(3,3-
diphenyltetrahydro-2-furylidene)ammonium bromide (3.1.54) in the presence of a base.
The 4-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-hydroxypiperidine (3.1.50) is synthesized by reacting
1-benzylpiperidine-4-one (3.1.48) with 4-chlorophenylmagnesiumbromide, followed by
debenzylation of the product (3.1.49) by hydrogenation using a palladium on carbon
catalyst.
The starting 1-benzylpiperidin-4-one (3.1.48) is synthesized by Dieckmann intermolecular condensation of N-benzyl-N,N-bis-(|?-carboethoxyethyl)amine (3.1.46), which is easily formed by reaction of benzylamine with ethyl acrylate to give 1-benzyl-3-carboethoxypiperidine-4-one (3.1.47) followed by acidic hydrolysis and thermal decarboxylation.
N,N-Dimethyl-(3,3-diphenyltetrahydro-2-furyliden)ammonium bromide (3.1.54) is synthesized from diphenylacetic acid ethyl ester, which is reacted with ethylene oxide in the presence of sodium hydroxide, giving 2,2-diphenylbutyrolactone (3.1.51). Reacting this with hydrogen bromide in acetic acid opens the lactone ring, forming 2,2-diphenyl-4-bromobutyric acid (3.1.52). This transforms into acid chloride (3.1.53) using thionyl chloride, which cyclizes upon further treatment with an aqueous solution of dimethylamine, thus forming the desired N,N-dimethyl-(3,3-diphenyltetrahydro-2-furyliden)ammonium bromide (3.1.54). Reacting this with 4-(4-chlorphenyl)-4-hydroxypiperidine (3.1.50) gives the desired loperamide (3.1.55) [34¨C36].
Veterinary Drugs and Treatments
Loperamide is used as a GI motility modifier in small animals. Use in cats is controversial and many clinicians do not recommend using in cats.
