On the classification of barbituric acid derivatives
Fubarbituric acid derivatives, the classification method is very important in the field of medicinal chemistry. Examining their categories in detail can clarify their properties, know their use, and be helpful in treating diseases and pharmaceuticals.
The classification of barbituric acid derivatives can first be based on the length of their action time. Those with fast and temporary action are often used for quick-acting emergency treatment in clinical practice. The molecular structure is so special that after the drug enters the body, the rate and distribution of metabolism are different, so it is obviously effective and temporary.
Those with intermediate effect are longer than the former, and are often selected for regulating some physiological functions of the body. The delicate structure makes the metabolic process in the body slightly slower, and the time to maintain the effect of the drug is also moderate, which can meet the needs of general treatment.
For those with more long-term effects, such drugs have a long-lasting effect and stable structure, which makes the metabolic process slow, and can continue to exert pharmacological effects for a long time. It is mostly used for diseases that require long-term maintenance of pharmacological effects.
In addition to the time of action, it can be polymerized by different substituents. Different substituents are added to the barbituric acid matrix, and the physical and chemical properties and pharmacological activities of the derivatives are changed. Or due to differences in the size and polarity of the substituents, the affinity and fat solubility of the drug and the receptor are different, and the pharmacological effects are different.
If a substituent has a special electronic effect, it can affect the charge distribution of the drug molecule, change the mode of interaction with biomacromolecules, and the strength and selectivity of pharmacological action will also change.
The detailed classification of Guanfu barbituric acid derivatives allows doctors to precisely select drugs according to the patient's condition and needs, in order to achieve the best curative effect and avoid possible harm. Pharmacists can also follow this, improve old drugs, develop new formulas, and hope that the drug will be more effective and safe to use.
