Ketamine analogues for the treatment of thrombocytopenia
-
, (2008/06/13)
5,6-Dehydronorketamine and derivatives retaining the α,β-unsaturated carbonyl are disclosed. These and other Michael or Michael-type acceptors and adducts are shown to influence the replication, differentiation or maturation of blood cells, especially platelet progenitor cells. Accordingly, these compounds are used for treatment of thrombocytopenia.
Synthesis of Ketamine Metabolites I and II and Some Anomalous Reactions of 6-Bromoketamine

Two metabolites of the drug ketamine, 2-(2-chlorophenyl)-2-(methylamino)cyclohexanone hydrochloride (1), have been synthesized.They are the N-demethyl compound, metabolite I (13), and the N-demethyl-5,6-dehydro analogue, metabolite II (15).Three bromo ketone derived from ketamine have also been synthesized and their realtive configuration assigned.In addition, attempted dehydrohalogenation of axial 2-bromoketamine (2a) with sodium amide in liquid ammonia has produced a novel entry into the 6-azabicycloheptane ring system.The structure of the rearrangement product (3) has been confirmed by unequivocal synthesis.Other unusual reactions include the reduction of an N-alkylazetidinone to an N-alkylazetidine and an acid-catalyzed N-alkyl cleavage of a β-lactam.
