Abstract

The [1-14C]pivaloyloxyethyl ester of methyldopa administered to man and cynomolgus monkeys resulted in the elimination in the urine of 14C-pivalic acid metabolites. Pivaloyl glucuronide and pivaloyl carnitine were identified as the major radioactive urinary metabolites in monkey urine and human urine, respectively. N.m.r. analysis indicated that pivaloyl carnitine had a cyclic structure. Although the role of carnitine is in the transport of fatty acids across mitochondrial membranes, it may also function in the conjugation of carboxylic acid xenobiotics in humans.
