Mannich Base Chemistry

Mannich Reaction - This is nucleophilic addition reaction of an aldehyde and at least a secondary amine to produce what is known as a schiff base on protonation and elimination of a water molecule. The Schiff base is often stabilized by resonance. The addition of a carbanaion to the schiff base gives another base called the Mannich base. The Mannich base formed can readily eliminate the secondary amine to give the synthetic usefulness of the reaction, but when primary amines or ammonia are used the hydrogen on nitrogen atom can participate in a further reaction to give more complex products.

Bioprecursor Prodrugs Do NOT contain a carrier or promoiety

– Contain latent functionality

– Metabolically or chemically transformed into an active drug

– Types of activation at are predictable•Oxidative (most common method)

•Reductive

•Phosphorylation (antiviral agents)

– Oxidation Example – Nabumetone – Relafen® – Smith Kline Beecham
