Description and Uses

Glutarimide, also known as Piperidine-2,6-dione or 2,6-Piperidinedione, is a versatile and commonly used organic reagent, classified in pharmacology as a protein synthesis inhibitor compound. It is also an important component of the anti-cancer drug thalidomide. The study reported the synthesis of triazoloquinoxaline derivative (Compound 15), a new potent anticancer drug containing a glutarimide molecule, based on the CRBN binding property of the glutarimide molecule in thalidomide molecule and the cytotoxic activity of triazole-quinoxaline. The IC50s were 9.81 ± 0.7, 15.49 ± 1.2 and 10.09 ± 0.9 μM for hepatocellular carcinoma (HepG2), prostate cancer (PC3) and breast cancer (MCF-7), respectively. It was superior to thalidomide in decreasing NF-κB P65 levels in HepG-2 cells^[1].

Glutarimide acts as an inhibitor of protein synthesis. Further, it is used as a reactant for thionations and biocatalytic asymmetric synthesis of sitagliptin production. It is also employed in the generation of beta-adrenoceptor ligands, enantioselective synthesis of securinega alkaloids and alfa-fluoro-alfa amino amides. In addition to this, it is used in intramolecular amidocyclopropanation reactions.
