ABSTRACT

A LC/MS method using atmospheric pressure chemical ionization, positive ion mode and full scan to measure the in vitro metabolic stability of cyanoalkyl functionalized compounds with the human liver microsomes was employed. Percentage metabolism examined for the five cyanoalkyl piperidines revealed the optimal chain length and positioning of these functions to produce the most metabolically stable compound. The 4-cyanomethyl piperidine derivative was the most stable compound with 15% metabolism after 15 min incubation with human liver microsomes. In general, the major metabolites formed from the cyanoalkyl piperidine derivatives were due to oxidation of the cyanoalkyl chain or the piperidine fragment, resulting in a M+16 ion. However, the 2-cyanomethyl piperidine derivative exhibited an interesting biotransformation pathway with unusual metabolite peaks corresponding to M+5, M-11 and M+21 ions. Data-dependent MS/MS scanning was used to generate daughter ion spectra from the parent compound and its metabolite peaks. Based on the fragmentation analysis, a carboxylic acid, aldehyde and oxidative metabolite of the carboxylic acid structure have been proposed for M+5, M-11 and M+21 ions, respectively.
