General description

1-(Diphenylmethyl)piperazine is an intermediate during drug synthesis. It has been reported to be formed during the oxidative metabolism of cinnarizine (CZ) [1-(diphenylmethyl)-4-(3-phenyl-2-propenyl)-piperazine] in rat liver microsomes.[1] It reacts with quinone in acetonitrile, followed by oxidation with an alkaline potassium ferricyanide, to afford 4-amino-3,6-di(tert-butyl)-o-benzoquinones.[2]

Application

1-(Diphenylmethyl)piperazine [N-(Diphenylmethyl)piperazine] may be used for the synthesis of 2-nitro-3,4,4-trichloro-1-(propylthio)-1-[4-(diphenylmethyl)piperazin-1-yl]-1,3-butadiene and 2-nitro-3,4,4-trichloro-1-(octadecylthio)-1-[4-(diphenylmethyl)piperazin-1-yl]-1,3-butadiene.[3]

Cyclizine, an antihistaminic antiemetic, is commonly used in palliative care. Its pharmacokinetics have been poorly studied, and its metabolic pathway is unknown but may involve the genetically controlled cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6). If this is the case, the metabolic ratio
