Melperone

Melperone (Bunil (PT), Buronil (AT, BE, CZ, DK, FI†, NL†, NO†, SE), Eunerpan (DE))[3] is an atypical antipsychotic of the butyrophenone chemical class, making it structurally related to the typical antipsychotic haloperidol. It first entered clinical use in 1960s.[4]

Marketing and indications

edit

It has been tried in treatment-resistant cases of schizophrenia with some (albeit limited) success.[4][5][6][7] It has also been reported effective in the treatment of L-DOPA and other forms of psychosis in Parkinson's disease[8] (although a multicentre, double-blind, placebo-controlled study conducted in 2012 failed to support these findings[9]). It is also known to possess anxiolytic properties.[10] It is marketed in the following countries:[3][11]

Adverse effects

edit

Melperone is reported to produce significantly less weight gain than clozapine and approximately as much weight gain as typical antipsychotics.[12] It is also purported to produce around as much prolactin secretion as clozapine (which is virtually nil).[13] It is also purported to produce sedative effects[14] and QT interval prolongation.[15] It is also known to produce less extrapyramidal side effects than the first-generation (typical) antipsychotic, thiothixene.[16] It can also produce (usually relatively mild) dry mouth.[17]

Other common adverse effects include[2][18][19]
Rare adverse effects include[2][18][19]
Unknown frequency adverse effects include[2][18][19]
  • Seizures (probably rare/uncommon)
  • Increased intraocular pressure
  • Intrahepatic cholestasis (probably rare)
  • Orthostatic hypotension (probably common)
  • Arrhythmias
  • Rash
  • Hyperprolactinemia (which can lead to e.g. galactorrhea, gynecomastia)
  • Weight gain
  • Increased appetite

Interactions

edit

Melperone is reported to be a CYP2D6 inhibitor.[20][21][22]

Pharmacology

edit

Melperone binds to the dopamine D2 receptor, just like all other clinically utilized antipsychotics, but it does so with a very low affinity and hence may be liable to rapidly dissociate from the D2 receptor hence potentially giving it the profile of an atypical antipsychotic.[23]

Synthesis

edit
 
Thieme Patents:[25][26] 86%:[27]

For the last step of the synthesis the sidechain 4-Chloro-4'-Fluorobutyrophenone [3874-54-2] (1) is attached to 4-Methylpiperidine (4-Pipecoline) [626-58-4] (2).
