Beschreibung
Warfarin was the first of the synthetic anticoagulant
rodenticides with structural features inspired
by a natural product (88). This prototype coumarin derivative
was developed in the 1940s by systematically altering
the structure of dicumarol (46), recognized earlier as the
causative agent of the sweet clover disease causing severe
bleeding in grazing cattle (89). These rodenticides act by
inhibiting the oxidoreductive recycling of vitamin K, a
cofactor necessary for prothrombin synthesis involved in
blood coagulation.
Chemische Eigenschaften
Warfarin is a colorless, odorless crystalline
solid.
Verwenden
Coumadin is widely used as an anticoagulant for various systemic diseases such as venous thromboembolism, cardiac arrhythmia, following myocardial infarction, and hematologic abnormalities, among others. However, the efficacy of coumadin for CRVO is not established. It was reported that 13 of 354 patients taking warfarin developed CRVO despite maintaining therapeutic levels of the anticoagulant.
Application
Warfarin is an anti-coagulant used to prevent heart attacks, strokes, and the formation of blood clots. It interferes with the use of vitamin K in the required carboxylation of several vitamin K-dependent proteins in the clotting cascade, preventing the initiating of clotting. (±)-Warfarin is a racemic mixture of 2 optically active isomers. (±)-Warfarin has a half-life of 36-42 hours in circulation, bound to plasma proteins, and accumulates in the liver, where the two isomers are metabolized by different pathways.
Weltgesundheitsorganisation (WHO)
Warfarin, a coumarin anticoagulant, was introduced into medicine
in 1950 for the prevention and managementof thrombo-embolic disorders. Its use
during the first trimester of pregnancy has been associated with birth
malformations, particularly in relation to cranial and limb development, and there
have been reports of foetal death due to haemorrhage following administration of
the drug during the late stages of pregnancy. The decision of the Egyptian agency
to requrie a warning regarding teratogenicity to be included in the approved
information of products containing warfarin beings the text of the package insert in
line with those approved in other countries. Warfarin is included in the WHO Model
List of Essential Drugs.
Reaktivit?t anzeigen
Warfarin is incompatible with the following: Strong oxidizers .
Health Hazard
Warfarin is classified as very toxic. Probable oral lethal dose in humans is 50-500 mg/kg, between 1 teaspoon and 1 ounce for a 150 lb. person. Material is an anticoagulant. Toxic effects other than hemorrhage are rarely seen in humans. Material is believed to be teratogenic in humans. Persons with a history of blood disorders with bleeding tendencies would be expected to be at increased risk from exposure.
Brandgefahr
Contact with strong oxidizers may cause fires and explosions. Toxic gases and vapors (e.g., carbon monoxide) may be released in heating to decomposition. Avoid strong oxidizers.
Landwirtschaftliche Anwendung
Rodenticide: Warfarin and its sodium salt is an anticoagulant rodenticide used for controlling rats and house mice in and around
homes, animal and agricultural premises, and commercialand industrial sites. It is effective in very low dosages. About
a week is required before a marked reduction in the rodent
population is noticeable. Rodents do not become bait-shy
after once tasting warfarin; they continue to consume it until its anti-clotting properties have produced death through
internal hemorrhaging. It can be used year-after-year wherever a rodent problem exists. Warfarin and its sodium salt
are only slightly dangerous to humans and domestic animals
when used as directed, but care must be taken with young
pigs, which are especially susceptible. The sodium salt is also
used to treat people with blood hypercoagulation problems.

Pharmazeutische Anwendungen
A group of naturally occurring antibiotics chemically related
to the coumarin group of anticoagulants. The best known
is novobiocin, but a few naturally occurring coumarins and
some semisynthetic derivatives have been studied. They
share a narrow range of antimicrobial activity largely directed
against aerobic Gram-positive organisms. Novobiocin inhibits
susceptible strains of Staph. aureus (including β-lactamaseproducing
and methicillin-resistant strains), Str. pyogenes and
Str. pneumonia at a concentration of 0.1–2 mg/L and it has
been considered for the treatment of infection with multiresistant
Staph. aureus and other Gram-positive cocci. However,
since resistance arises readily and side effects are common,
the general consensus is that it no longer has a place in antibacterial
therapy.
There has been some revived interest in coumarins as
potentiating agents of antineoplastic drugs.

Mechanism of action
Warfarin sodium is rapidly and completely absorbed (~100% bioavailability) following oral,
intramuscular, intravenous, or rectal administration. Peak plasma concentrations occur at
approximately 3 hours. Its anticoagulant effect is not immediately present, however, following
initiation of therapy. Instead, a delay in onset of anticoagulation occurs while the clotting factors
with normal activity are cleared and those that have not been carboxylated because of the actions of
warfarin reach physiologically significant levels. On average, this delay is approximately 5 hours for factor V turnover and 2 to 3 days for factor II (thrombin). Consequently, because of the rapid decline
in protein C levels, the anticoagulated state frequently is preceded by a period of hypercoagulability
(25).
Warfarin also is highly protein bound (95–99%) and, as a result, has numerous interactions with
other drugs. The free drug (i.e., that not bound to plasma proteins) is the active constituent.
Therefore, any other substance that displaces bound drug from protein binding sites increases the
levels of free drug and, as a result, can cause warfarin toxicity, which usually is manifested by
hemorrhage. The volume of distribution(Vd) is quite small (0.1–0.2 L/kg), and the plasma half-life is
quite long, both of which presumably result from the high degree of plasma protein binding.

Carcinogenicity
No data suggest that warfarin is either
mutagenic or carcinogenic.
Environmental Fate
Photolytic. Warfarin may undergo direct photolysis since the pesticide showed an
absorption maximum of 330 nm (Gore et al., 1971)
Chemical/Physical. The hydrolysis half-lives at 68.0°C and pH values of 3.09, 7.11
and 10.18 were calculated to be 12.9, 57.4 and 23.9 days, respectively. At 25°C and pH
7, the half-life was estimated to be 16 years (Ellington et al., 1986)
Stoffwechsel
Warfarin and other coumarin derivatives undergo extensive hepatic oxidative metabolism catalyzed
by CYP2C9 isozyme to give 6- and 7-hydroxywarfarins as the major inactive metabolites. Warfarin
also undergoes, to a lesser extent, reductive metabolism of the ketone on the C-3 side chain to a
pair of pharmacologically active, diastereomeric 2-hydroxywarfarins). Almost no
unchanged drug is excreted in the urine. As expected, those individuals with compromised hepatic
function are at greater risk for warfarin toxicity secondary to diminished clearance. Many of the
drug–drug interactions are associated with enhanced or inhibited metabolism of warfarin via
CYP2C9 induction or inhibition. Many additional drugs and conditions have profound effects on
warfarin therapy. A partial list of these factors is shown in Table 31.2.

l?uterung methode
dl-Warfarin crystallises from EtOH or MeOH. UV: max at 308nm ( 13,610) in H2O. The acetate has m 117-118o, the O-triflate has m 90-91o, and the 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazone has m 215-216o. It is an effective anticoagulant and rodenticide. [West et al. J Am Chem Soc 83 2676 1961, HPLC: Banfield & Rowland J Pharm Sci 72 921 1983, Beilstein 17 III/IV 6794.]
dl-Warfarin is resolved via recrystallisation of the quinidine salt, and the free acids are recrystallised (70g) from 600mL of 80% aqueous Me2CO. Large prismatic crystals of the pure enantiomers are obtained by slow crystallisation from Me2CO or AcOH. The solubilities of the pure enantiomers at 25o are 11.2% in Me2CO and 2.6% in AcOH, whereas the racemate has solubilities of 6.5% in Me2CO and 2% in AcOH. The IR spectra are the same with max (CHCl3) at 2.78 (w), 5.88, 6.16 and 6.38. [West et al. J Am Chem Soc 83 2676 1961, Cbz-proline diastereoisomeric esters were used for HPLC analysis: Banfield & Rowland J Pharm Sci 72 921 1983.] Poisonous, anticoagulant and rodenticide.
