Abstract
The hydrolytic stability of norcantharidine derived conformationally constrained diamides in acidic media is solely governed by the type of amide. Tertiary diamides underwent smooth acid catalyzed hydrolysis due to anchimeric assistance whereas other diamides were stable. This was corroborated from conformational proximity of the amide groups for anchimeric assistance based on single crystal X-ray structure analysis. Theoretical calculations on the diamide structures also predict the similar proximity of the diamides in those conformations. Thus norcantharidine based diamides could probably serve as promising systems for delayed release of certain types of drugs which possess secondary amine component as exemplified by the release of m-chlorophenylpiperazine at a pH range of 1–2.
