Oxatomide, sold under the brand name Tinset among others, is a antihistamine of the diphenylmethylpiperazine family which is marketed in Europe, Japan, and a number of other countries.[1][2][3][4] It was discovered at Janssen Pharmaceutica in 1975.[5] Oxatomide lacks any anticholinergic effects.[2] In addition to its H1 receptor antagonism, it also possesses antiserotonergic activity similarly to hydroxyzine.[2]

It was patented in 1976 and came into medical use in 1981.[6]

Chemistry

Synthesis

Oxatomide synthesis:[7][8]

Reaction of 2-Benzimidazolinone with isopropenyl acetate leads to the singly protected imidazolone derivative (2). Alkylation of this with 3-chloro-1-bromopropane affords the functionalized derivative (3). Alkylation of the monobenzhydryl derivative of piperazine (4) with 3 gives oxatomide (5), after hydrolytic removal of the protecting group.
