Budipine (brand name Parkinsan) is an antiparkinson agent marketed for the treatment of Parkinson's disease.[2][3][4]
While its exact mechanism of action is not well characterized,[2] it is believed to be an NMDA receptor antagonist,[5][6] but also promoting the synthesis of dopamine.[7]
Because it provides additional benefits relative to existing treatments, it probably does not precisely mimic the mechanism of an existing known treatment.[7][8]
It is an hERG blocker and can produce long QT syndrome as a side effect.[9]
Analogues include prodipine and medipine.[10][11]
Budipine can be prepared from the 1-tert-butyl-4-piperidone directly by treatment with benzene in the presence triflic acid.[12] This method of synthesis enables a 99% yield of product.
4-Phenyl-1-t-butyl-4-piperidinol,[14] (1)
1-t-butyl-3-benzoyl-4-phenyl-4-piperidinol (3)

Other representatives of this class of substances, the 1-alkyl-4,4-diphenylpiperidines, such as, e.g., the 1-isopropyl analogue (prodipine) or the 1-methyl analogue (medipine) have similar pharmacological properties including marked tremorin and reserpin antagonism (Schaefer et al., 1984). The mechanism of action of the 1-alkyl-4,4- diphenylpiperidines is not yet understood in detail.
