YH439 is a potential drug candidate for the treatment of various hepatic disorders. YH439 and its three metabolites have been identified in rat urine by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and by gas chromatography (GC)-MS. Identification of YH439 and its metabolites was established by comparing their GC retention times and mass spectra with those of the synthesized authentic standards. Both electron impact- and positive chemical ionization MS have been evaluated. The metabolism study was performed in the rat using oral administration of the drug. A major metabolite (YH438) was identified as the N-dealkylation product of YH439. Other identified metabolites were caused by the loss of the methyl thiazolyl amine group (metabolite II) from YH439, the isopropyl hydrogen malonate group (metabolite IV) and the decarboxylated product (metabolite III) of metabolite II.
