Thalidomid

A much more serious drawback to using chiral drugs as racemic mixtures is illustrated by thalidomide briefly employed as a sedative and antinausea drug in Europe during the period 1959-1962 The desired properties are those of (/ ) thalidomide (S) Thalido mide however has a very different spectrum of bio logical activity and was shown to be responsible for over 2000 cases of serious birth defects in children born to women who took it while pregnant...

The glutarimide best known to the lay public, thalidomide (40), owes its reputation not to efficacy, but to the wholly unanticipated and tragic teratogenic effects elicited by this compound. It might be noted that the very efficacy and lack of the usual barbiturate side effects shown by this drug led to its prescription as a hypnotic for expectant mothers. Condensation of the phthalimide of glutamic acid (39) with ammonia at elevated... [Pg.257]

One enantiomer of penicillamine (D-) exhibits antiarthritic properties but foe other is highly toxic (Figure 8.3). The teratogenic effects of thalidomide were induced by one enantiomer, foe other exhibited foe beneficial effects against morning sickness. [Pg.239]
