글루타이미드

용도Glutarimide acts as an inhibitor of protein synthesis. Further, it is used as a reactant for thionations and biocatalytic asymmetric synthesis of sitagliptin production. It is also employed in the generation of beta-adrenoceptor ligands, enantioselective synthesis of securinega alkaloids and alfa-fluoro-alfa amino amides. In addition to this, it is used in intramolecular amidocyclopropanation reactions.

일반 설명A glutarimide antibiotic, 9-methylstreptimidone, shows antiviral, antitumor and antifungal activities.

To a flask containing 70 gm (0.53 mole) of glutaric acid is added 150 ml (2.2 mole) of 28% aqueous ammonia. The mixture is set for distillation and heated for 7 hr as the temperature of the mixture rises from 90° to 180°C. The temperature is held at 170-180°C for \\ hr or until the evolution of ammonia ceases. The reaction mixture solidifies on cooling and the pro­duct is recrystallized from acetone to afford 37.4 gm (63%), m.p. 145-146°C. t may be advantageous to preform the ammonium salt of dicarboxylic acids prior to the application of enough heat to form the imide. The preparation of succinimide is a case in point.
