El-Shaheny
, p. 920 - 928 (2014)
A simple and highly sensitive stability-indicating HPLC method was developed and validated for the determination of the new antidepressant agent, agomelatine (AGM). Separation of AGM from its stress-induced degradation products was achieved on a BDS Hypersil phenyl column (250 mm × 4.6 mm i.d., 5 μm particle size) using methanol–0.05 M phosphate buffer of pH 2.5 (35: 65, v/v) as a mobile phase with fluorescence detection at 230/370 nm. Naproxen was used as an internal standard. The method satisfied all the validation requirements, as evidenced by good linearity (correlation coefficient of 0.9999, over the concentration range 0.4–40.0 ng/mL), accuracy (recovery average 99.55 ± 0.90%), precision (intra-day RSD 0.54–1.35% and inter-day RSD 0.93–1.26%), robustness and specificity. The stability of AGM was investigated under different ICH recommended stress conditions including acidic, alkaline, neutral, oxidative and photolytic. AGM was found to be labile to acidic and alkaline degradation and a kinetic study was conducted to explore its degradation behavior. First-order degradation rate constants and half-life times were calculated in each case. The proposed method was applied for the determination of AGM in tablets and spiked human plasma with mean percentage recoveries of 99.87 ± 0.31 (n = 3) and 102.09 ± 5.01 (n = 5), respectively. Hence, the proposed method was successfully applied for the determination of AGM in human volunteer plasma. The results were compared statistically with those obtained by a comparison HPLC method revealing no significant differences between the two methods regarding accuracy and precision. Copyright

Preparation method of agomelatine
-
Paragraph 0017; 0021; 0025, (2018/01/12)
The invention discloses a preparation method of agomelatine. In the method, 1-methyl-7-methoxynaphthalene is used as an initial raw material and is successively subjected to a bromination reaction with N-bromosuccinimide, a substitution reaction with nitromethane, a nitro-reduction reaction, and an acetylation reaction to produce a final product of agomelatine. The preparation method has fewer steps and employs low-cost and easy-to-obtained raw materials. During the reactions, high-risk and high-cost hydrogenation catalysts, such as palladium-carbon and Raney nickel, are not employed, so that the reactions are more reliable and require lower energy. The method can reduce transfer loss of intermediates, is simpler in operation, occupies fewer operators, is stable in product quality and high in yield and is suitable for large-scale industrial stable production.

Synthesis and pharmacological evaluation of novel agomelatine and melatonin analogues with structures combining the features generating MT1 selectivity, namely the bulky hydrophobic ether moiety and the difluoroacetamide group, is reported. The dimeric agomelatine analogue linked by a three methylene spacer displayed the best affinity (Ki = 1.2 nM) and selectivity (7-fold) toward MT1 receptors.

Novel conformationally restricted analogues of agomelatine were synthesized and pharmacologically evaluated at MT1 and MT2 melatoninergic receptors. Replacement of the N-Acetyl side chain of agomelatine by oxathiadiazole-2-oxide (compound 3), oxadiazole-5(4H)-one (compound 4), tetrazole (compound 5), oxazolidinone (compound 7a), pyrrolidinone (compound 7b), imidazolidinedione (compound 12), thiazole (compounds 13 and 14) and isoxazole moieties (compound 15) led to a decrease of the melatoninergic binding affinities, particularly at MT1. Compounds 7a and 7b exhibiting nanomolar affinity towards the MT2 receptors subtypes have shown the most interesting pharmacological results of this series with the appearance of a weak MT2-selectivity.
