Antipsychotic Agents Antipsychotic Agents (Neuroleptic Agents) (Tranquilizing Agents)
3
Antipsychotic agents, also called major tranquillizers Antipsychotic agents, also called major tranquillizers neuroleptics and ataractics. neuroleptics and ataractics. Antipsychotic agents produce calm or neurosedation in severely disturbed psychiatric patients. They ameliorate mental aberrations that are characteristic of psychosis. Contrary to the effect caused by hypnotics and sedatives, they don't cloud consciousness or depress the vital centres. They are widely used for prolonged treatment of acute and chronic schizophrenia. They antagonizing the actions of dopamine, and this is responsible for most of their effects on the nervous system. Most of these agents have also antiemetic and sympatholytic actions
4
The most important types of psychosis are: i.Schizophrenia ii.Affective disorders (e.g. depression mania) iii.Organic psychoses (mental disturbances caused by head injury or alcoholism ……..
5
The main clinical features of the disease are as follows: i.Delusions (often paranoid in nature) ii.Hallucinations, usually in the form of voices. iii.Thought disorders iv.Withdrawal from social contacts and flattening of emotional responses.
6
Psychosis differ from mild behaviour disorders ( as anxiety ) in that …
7
Classification 1.Rauwolfia alkaloids and synthetic analogues 2.Phenothiazine and thioxanthene derivatives 3.Butyrophenones 4.Diphenylmethane derivatives 5.Diphenylbutylpiperidines 6.Miscellaneous (benzamide derivatives and tricyclic heterocyclic analogues)
8
Main chemical categories are: A.Typical neuroleptics Phenothiazines (e.g. chlorpromazine) Butyrophenones (e.g. haloperidol) Thioxanthene (e.g. flupenthioxol) B.Atypical neuroleptics benzamides (e.g. sulpiride) Diphenylbutylpiperazines (e.g. pimozide) Dibenzyldiazepines (e.g. clozapine).

Thioxanthene Derivatives 2-N,N-dimethyl-9-[3-(4-methyl-1-piprazinyl)propylene]thioxanthene- 2- sulfonamide. Thiothixene (Navane)
18
Thioxanthenes derived by isosteric replacement of one atom in the structure of phenothiazine. The compounds possess may clinical useful pharmacologic properties in common with phenothiazines. They are indicated for the management of the manifestation of acute and chronic schizophrenia.

Antipsychotics Phenothiazines derivatives Phenothiazines derivatives Structure-Activity Relationship The neuroleptic activity of phenothiazines may be affected by the following: a.Nature of the chain in position 10 b.The amino group c.2-substituent
20
Replacement of H in position 2Replacement of H in position 2 Substitution at position 3Substitution at position 3 Substitution at position 1Substitution at position 1 Three carbon chain…Three carbon chain… Branching with larger groups..Branching with larger groups.. Replacement of terminal alkyl amino groupReplacement of terminal alkyl amino group
21
Structure-Activity Relationship (a) Alkyl Side Chain (i)Maximum potency for antipsychotic activity when the nitrogen of the phenothiazine ring and the more basic side chain nitrogen is connected by a THREE-CARBONS side chain. (ii)Branching at the β-position of the side chain with a small methyl group / produces decreasing activity. This is perhaps due to …….. (iii)β-substitution with larger group causes loss of activity. (iv)Bridging of position 3 of the side chain to position 1 the phenothiazine significantly reduces neuroleptic activity.
22
(b) Basic Amino Group (i)Maximum neuroleptic potency is observed in aminoalkylated phenothiazines having a tertiary amino group. (ii)In general, alkylation of the basic amino group with groups larger than methyl decreases the neuroleptic potency. The diethylamine analogue is less potent than chlorpromazine. (iii) the piperidinyl derivatives are less potent than the corresponding dimethylamine derivatives. (iv) The substitution of position 4 of the piperazinyl or piperidinyl propyl substituted phenothiazines has been varied. Hydroxy ethyl substitution enhances potency and the acetoxyethyl derivative is even more potent. The activity decreases from N-methyl to N-propyl substitution. (v)Quaternization of the terminal nitrogen result inn loss of activity due to inability of these polar compounds to cross the BBB.
23
(c) Phenothiazine Ring Substituent (2-position) (i)Potency increase in the following order of position of ring substitution : 1 < 4 < 3 < 2. (ii)2- substitution of the phenothiazine nucleus increases in neuroleptic potency in the following order: OH < H < CH 3 < nC 3 H 7 CO < C 2 H 5 CO < CH 3 CO < Cl < SCH 3 < CF 3. (iii)Oxidation of the 5 sulphur of antipsychotic phenothiazine decreases activity. (iv)1, 2, 3, 4-Aza-phenothiazine are more effective agents. The 1-Aza analogue of promazine is more potent than the parent compound. 1-Azaphenothiazine (Prothiopendyl)
