Suplatast tosilate ( INN) is an inhibitor of cytokine T helper cells. [1] Overstimulation of these Th2 cells can lead to an allergic reaction, [2] so the drug is used as an antihistamine. [3] It has also been used in the treatment of Kimura's disease. [4] [5]
Acylation of 1-(4-aminophenoxy)-3-ethoxypropan-2-ol (1) with 3-methylthiopropionyl chloride (2) gives the amide (3). Methylation of the thioether using methyl tosylate (4) yields suplatast as its toluenesulfonic acid salt. [6] [7] [8]
