KJM5230 - Biologisk aktive molekyler

Kurset omhandler organisk kjemiske forhold hos sentrale legemiddelgrupper og bioaktive naturstoffer.

Emnet omhandler syntese/biosyntese, virkningsmekanisme, biotilgjengelighet og stabilitet for utvalgte stoffklasser. Struktur-aktivitets forhold og strukturoptimalisering inngår også i kurset.

1805: Morphine isolated from opium (sructure proposed 1935, prooved by synth. 1952)

1828: First organic synthesis (urea)

1840-1850: First synthesized org. compds used in medicine: CHCl3, Et2O anestechia)

Ex of early synthetic drugs:Choral hydrate (sleeping pill) 1869Acetyl salicylic acid synth 1853, clin trials 1893Phenazone synth 1884Benzocaine 1902Prontocil 1932

Natural Products

Sources•Microorganisms (bacteria, fungus) - Antibiotics

•Higher plants, ex. morphine, quinine, taxol

•Sponges (polycellular “animals”, no real organs or cell tissue) ex. agelasines

•Higher animals, fewer examples, epibatidine from South American tree frog

Microorganisms, sponges, plants

No immune system, produce their own antibiotics as defence

Secondary metabolites with great structural diversity, stereochemistry!

Secondary metabolites have no known metabolic role in cells

Three main classes: alkaloids, terpenoids, phenolics
