Naftifine Chemische Eigenschaften,Einsatz,Produktion Methoden

• Originator

  Naftifine,Sandoz (Novartis)

• Verwenden

  (E)-Naftifine is an intermediate in synthesizing Naftifine N-Oxide (N213110), which is an impurity or metabolite of Naftifine Hydrochloride (N213100), an allylamine antifungal agent.

• Verwenden

  Naftifine is only permitted to be used externally and only superficially as a drug with a broad spectrum of action against dermatophytes and candida infections. According to the initial data, it exceeds the activity of econazole. Moreover, it does not have a locally irritating effect. It is believed that the fungicide activity of this drug is based on its ability to inhibit the fungal enzyme squalene epoxidase, thus lowering the concentration of ergosterol. The corresponding enzyme in mammals is inhibited significantly less. Synonyms of this drug are exoderil, naftin, and others.

• Verwenden

  Naftifine (Naftin) is a synthetic allylamine derivative topical antifungal agent that works by blocking squalene 2,3-epoxidase, resulting in increased cell membrane permeability and cell death. It is structurally and pharmacologically related to terbinafine. It also has some antiinflammatory properties that may be due to its ability to alter chemotaxis by polymorphonucleocytes. It is most effective against dermatophytes, moderately active against molds, and less active against yeasts, including C. albicans.

• Definition

  ChEBI: A tertiary amine in which the nitrogen is substituted by methyl, alpha-naphthylmethyl, and (1E)-cinnamyl groups. It is used (usually as its hydrochloride salt) for the treatment of fungal skin infections.

• Manufacturing Process

  To a mixture of 1.42 g of methyl-(1-naphthylmethyl)amine hydrochloride, 2.89 g of sodium carbonate and 10 ml of dimethylformamide is added, at room temperature, 1.25 g of cinnamyl chloride, dropwise. After 18 hours stirring, at room temperature, the mixture is filtered and the filtrate is evaporated in vacuo. The residue is dissolved in toluene and, after drying over sodium sulphate, evaporated to obtain the trans-N-(cinnamylmethyl)-Nmethyl-(1-naphthylmethyl)amine compound, boiling point 162-167°C/0.015 Torr.
  The free base may be converted, with isopropanolic hydrogen chloride solution, into the hydrochloride form, melting point 177°C (from propanol).

• Antimicrobial activity

  Naftifine is fungicidal against dermatophytes such as Epidermophyton floccosum, Trichophyton and Microsporum species. Against pathogenic yeasts such as Candida species and moulds, it shows only an intermediate fungistatic activity in vitro.

• Pharmazeutische Anwendungen

  A topical antifungal used as a 1% cream for the treatment of dermatophytoses, including tinea pedis, tinea corporis and tinea cruris.

• Pharmakokinetik

  Naftifine penetrates well into the stratum corneum of the skin; 2 – 4 % of the topically administered dose were absorbed after administration of a 1 % gel preperation. After occlusion, an absorption of 6% of the administered dose was observed.

• Clinical Use

  Naftifine was the first allyl amine to be discovered and marketed. It is subject to extensive first-pass metabolism to be orally active and, consequently, is only available in topical preparations. The widest use of naftifine is against various tinea infections of the skin.

• Nebenwirkungen

  Naftifine is well tolerated although rare cases of local skin irritations and contact dermatitis have been found, which might also be due the galenic formulation.

• Synthese

  Naftifine, (E)-N-methyl-N-(3-phenyl-2-propenyl)-1-naphthalinmethanamine (35.3.1), is synthesized by alkylating N-methyl-(1-naphthylmethyl)-amine with cinnamyl chloride in the presence of sodium carbonate.
