Oxatomide (R35443) is a first-generation antihistamine of the diphenylmethylpiperazine (benzhydrylpiperazine) class.[1] It was discovered at Janssen Pharmaceutica in 1975. Oxatomide lacks any anticholinergic effects.[1] In addition to its H1 receptor antagonism, it also possesses antiserotonergic actions.[1]

Synthesis[edit]

Oxatomide synthesis:[2]

Reaction of 2-Benzimidazolinone with isopropenyl acetate leads to the singly protected imidazolone derivative (2). Alkylation of this with 3-chloro-1-bromopropane affords the functionalized derivative (3). Alkylation of the monobenzhydryl derivative of piperazine (4) with 3 gives oxatomide (5), after hydrolytic removal of the protecting group.
