Abstract: | The structures of the essential metabolites which are excreted by the rat after oral application of GS 13005 (O,O-dimethyl-S-[(2-methoxy-1,3,4-thiadiazole-5(4H)-one-4-yl)-methyl] dithiophosphate) have been elucidated. The product of final oxidation, CO2, was found to be the main metabolite (up to 36% of the dose applied). Among the degradation products excreted in the urine (up to 45% of the dose applied) the two most important were isolated. They are 4-methylsulfinylmethyl and 4-methylsulfonylmethyl derivatives respectively of the intact 2-methoxy-1,3,4-thiadiazole-5-one heterocycle (metabolites III and II, in amounts of 20–25% and 5–7% of the dose applied, respectively). These metabolites originate by methylation and subsequent oxidation from the mercaptomethyl derivative liberated after hydrolysis of the P S bond of the dithiophosphoric acid ester. |
