Volinanserin (INN) (developmental code name MDL-100,907) is a highly selective 5-HT2A receptor antagonist that is frequently used in scientific research to investigate the function of the 5-HT2A receptor.[1][2][3] It was also tested in clinical trials as a potential antipsychotic,[4][5] antidepressant,[6] and treatment for insomnia but was never marketed.[7]

Synthesis[edit]

Synthesis:[8] Patent:[9] Precursor:[10] Compositions:[11]

The protection of Ethyl isonipecotate [1126-09-6] (1) with Boc anhydride gives ethyl n-boc-4-piperidinecarboxylate [142851-03-4] (2). Ester-amide interchange with N-Methoxymethylamine HCl: [6638-79-5] in the presence of CDI coupling agent gives 1-Boc-4-[methoxy(methyl)carbamoyl]piperidine [139290-70-3] (3). Weinreb ketone synthesis occurs upon benzoylation with 1,2-Dimethoxybenzene [91-16-7] (4) to give 1-Boc-4-(3,4-dimethoxybenzoyl)piperidine, [2322526-86-1] CID:139510111 (5). Acid removal of the urethane protecting group gives (3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-piperidin-4-ylmethanone [742665-98-1] (6). The reduction of the ketone with sodium borohydride leads to (3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)-piperidin-4-ylmethanol, CID:24261124 (7). Resolution of the alcohol gives (8). Sn2 alkylation of the secondary nitrogen with 4-Fluorophenethyl bromide [332-42-3] (9) completed the synthesis of Volinanserin (10).

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
