Citenamide is a tricyclic chemical agent that is very similar in character to and most closely resembles carbamazepine (Tegretol), which a non-addictive anticonvulsant agent used to treat epileptic seizures, schizophrenia, phantom limb pain and alcoholism. Citenamide contains an amide functional group whereas carbamazepine contains a urea. Citenamide is an old drug and there is little pharmacological data surrounding its use in medicine.[1][2][3][4]

Synthesis

[edit]
Citenamide synthesis
Citenamide synthesis

Organometallic formation between 5-chlorodibenzosuberene [18506-04-2] (1) and butyl lithium, is proceeded by a dry ice quench to give the acid, PC12515652[5] (2). Halogenation with thionyl chloride and Schotten-Baumann reaction with ammonia gives the amide, and hence citenamide (3).
