Chapter 5, Problem 5.75GP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Many pharmaceuticals are marketed with the designation "HCl" appended to the name of the drug. It should be determined that what does the "HCl" means. The type of reaction that would be involved in converting a drug to the HCl form has to be identified along with discussing the advantages of this form of drug.

Concept introduction:

Reactions of ionic compounds can be grouped into three and they are,

  1. 1. Precipitation reaction: A precipitation reaction takes place when two solutions of well soluble substances together form a poorly soluble salt.
  2. 2. Acid- base neutralization reaction: it is a double displacement reaction in which an acid and a base react to form an ionic compound (salt) and water.
  3. 3. Oxidation-reduction reaction: Both the oxidation and reduction reaction occurs together in a chemical reaction. It is also known as redox reaction.

The term solubility reveals the amount of a given substance that can be dissolved in a certain amount of solvent.

Dehalogenase enzymes catalyze the clevage of C-X bonds. One such dehalogenase catalyzes the following reaction. An active site aspartate is thought to carry out the initial nucleophilic attack that expels the chloride. Select the most likely intermediate in the reaction. (Note the stereochemistry.

Enalapril is an anti-hypertension “pro-drug” (i.e., a drug precursor) that isinactive until the ethyl ester (arrow in figure) is hydrolyzed by esterases present in blood plasma. The active drug is the dicarboxylic acid (“enalaprilat”) that results from this hydrolysis reaction.(a) Enalapril is administered in pill form, but enalaprilat must be administered intravenously. Why do you suppose enalapril works as a pill but enalaprilat does not?                                                                                  (b) Enalaprilat is a competitive inhibitor of the angiotensin-convertingenzyme (ACE), which cleaves the blood-pressure regulating peptideangiotensin I. ACE has a KM = 52 μM for angiotensin I, which is presentin plasma at a concentration of 75 μM. When enalaprilat is presentat 2.4 nM, the activity of ACE in plasma is 10% of its uninhibitedactivity. What is the value of K1 for enalaprilat?

ACE has a KM = 12 µM for angiotensin, which is present in plasma at a concentration of 75 µM. When enalaprilat is present at 2.4 nM, the activity of ACE in plasma is 10% of its uninhib- ited activity. What is the value of K; for enalaprilat?
