Abstract
The metabolism of alpidem, a new anxiolytic agent in the chemical series of imidazopyridines, was investigated in rat and man. In both species the compound is extensively metabolised by three main routes of biotransformation: aromatic oxidation of the imidazopyridine ring; n-dealkylation; and/or aliphatic oxidation of the substituted amide side chains.Entities:
