Previously we have proposed and provided evidence for a metabolic scheme leading to 3-carbamoyl-2-phenylpropionaldehyde from the antiepileptic drug felbamate. This aldehyde was found to undergo reversible cyclization to form the more stable cyclic carbamate 4-hydroxy-5-phenyl-tetrahydro-1,3-oxazin-2-one or undergo elimination to form 2-phenylpropenal. The cyclic carbamate bears structural similarity to 4-hydroxycyclophosphamide and there is an intriguing parallelism between the pathway from the cyclic carbamate to 2-phenylpropenal and the known pathway from 4-hydroxycyclophosphamide to acrolein. The similarity of these transformations led us to consider 5-phenyl-1,3-oxazinane-2,4-dione, which could arise from an oxidation of the cyclic carbamate, as a potential metabolite of felbamate. As the formation of this dione species may have both potential pharmacologic and toxicologic implications for felbamate therapy, we wished to study its reactivity. We have developed a synthesis of 5-phenyl-1, 3-oxazinane-2,4-dione and evaluated its reactivity in vitro. This dione was found to undergo base-catalyzed decomposition to three products, one of which is the major human metabolite of felbamate, 3-carbamoyl-2-phenylpropionic acid. Furthermore, we have found evidence for the presence of the dione in human urine after felbamate treatment through the identification of its major in vitro decomposition product, 2-phenylacrylamide 11.
