Abstract
Optically pure (R)‐ and (S)‐3‐aminotetradeutero‐2‐thiophenone (D‐ and L‐[^2^H~4~]homocysteine thiolactone) for use as substrates for metabolic and pharmacokinetic studies has been prepared. The racemic [^2^H~4~]homocysteine thiolactone hydrochloride was prepared from commercially available and highly enriched DL‐[3,3,4,4‐^2^H~4~]methionine by intramolecular condensation with hydriodic acid. The racemate was derivatized with (S)‐(+)‐2‐methoxyphenylacetic acid to form the diastereomeric amides. The diastereomers were separated by silica gel column chromatography. Hydrolysis of the D‐ and L‐isomer amide in 4 M HCl–ethanol (1:2 v/v) afforded the optically pure D‐ and L‐[^2^H~4~]homocysteine thiolactone, respectively. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

## Abstract Optically active α‐deuterated serine dipeptide active ester derivatives were prepared to study the racemization mechanism. N‐Acetyl‐O‐benzyl‐DL‐serine, __1__, was converted to 5(4H)‐oxazolone __2__ and deuterated with CH~3~‐COOD in α‐position. 5(4^2^H)‐Oxazolone __3__ was converted to Z
L-[ 35S]Homocysteine thiolactone has been synthesized by demethylation of L-{ 35S]Methionine with sodium in liquid ammonia and subsequent lactonisation in acid solution. The radiochemical yield of the carrier added synthesis was in the range of 45 to 50 % with a radiochemical purity higher than 96 %

This paper describes the synthesis of deuterium‐labeled pregabalin. The stable isotopic‐labeled compound was obtained in nine steps starting from the commercially available 4‐[^2^H~11~]methylvaleric acid as the stable‐labeled reagent. It is used as an internal standard for analysis and metabolic stu
Several methods for the specific deuteration of cannabmoids are described. Deuteration of the phenolic ring was accomplished by treatment with BF, .Et10 followed by quenching with a solution of Na, CO, in Da 0 resulting in deuterium incorporation in both the 2 and 4 positions. Regioselective incorpo
