The preparation of enantiomeric [1-13C]ketoprofens (KPs) and their acylglucuronides has been reported for the nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopic studies on the stereoselective pharmacokinetics and reactivities of KP acylglucuronides. The racemic [1-13]KP was prepared by a three-step synthetic scheme from [13C]potassium cyanide in overall yield of 23 %. The racemate was optically resolved by the formation of diastereomeric amides with (R)-(+)-α-phenylethylamine, separation of the amides by column chromatography on silica gel, and nonhydrolytic cleavage of the amide bond using nitrogen tetroxide. The yields of KP enantiomers were 30 % based on the racemate. The acylglucuronides of (R)- and (S)-[1-13C]KP were isolated from human urine after dosing of each labelled KP (100 mg) using preparative high-performance liquid chromatography following Sep-Pak C18 pretreatments. The yields of the conjugates from 0-4 h post-dose urine were roughly 50 mg.
