The in-vitro biotransformation of the anxiolytic agent, RWJ-50172 was studied after incubation with rat hepatic S9 fraction in the presence of an NADPH-generating system, and incubating with Cunninghamella echinulata in soy-bean medium. Unchanged RWJ-50172 (80% of the sample in rat; 86% in fungi) plus 6 metabolites (M1-M6) were profiled, quantified and tentatively identified on the basis of API-MS/MS data. The metabolic pathways for RWJ-50172 are proposed, and the four metabolic pathways are: pyrido-oxidation (pathway A), phenylhydroxylation (B), dehydration (C) and reduction (D). Pathway A formed hydroxy-pyrido-RWJ-50172 (M1, 10% of the sample in both rat and fungi) as the only major metabolite, which further dehydrated to form dehydro-RWJ-50172 in trace quantities in rat. Pathway B produced hydroxyphenyl-RWJ-50172 (M2) in small amounts (4%) in rat, and in conjunction with step A formed dihydroxy-RWJ-50172 as a trace metabolite in rat. Step D produced a minor benzimidazole-reduced metabolite in fungi. RWJ-50172 is substantially metabolized by this rat hepatic S9 fraction and fungi.
