    The antiepileptic drug mephenytoin is a racemate. Mephenytoin hydroxylation is a stereospecific reaction and is confined to the S-enantiomer, which is normally eliminated within hours, allowing the R-enantiomer to accumulate since it can be eliminated only within days or weeks.

    Neurology, 34(8), 1100-1102 (1984-08-01)
    We investigated the conversion of mephenytoin to nirvanol in five patients with uncontrolled complex partial seizures. After a 50-mg single oral dose, mean peak mephenytoin level was 0.48 microgram/ml and nirvanol 0.37 microgram/ml. After 400 mg, peak mephenytoin level was

    The stereoselective clearances of R- and S-mephenytoin were determined in rats receiving either an intravenous or hepatic portal vein infusion of racemic mephenytoin. The mean +/- SD intravenous clearances of R- and S-mephenytoin were 1630 +/- 250 ml/hr and 630

    The preparation and spectral properties of copper(II) complexes of two hydantoins are reported. Complexes of the general formula Cu(hyd)2(py)2, where hyd = phenytoin or nirvanol; and py = pyridine were prepared and characterized by infrared and ESR. Spectral data show

    Epilepsia, 27(4), 412-418 (1986-07-01)
    Stereoselective metabolism has been demonstrated for mephenytoin (MHT), R-MHT being demethylated to the pharmacologically active metabolite 5-phenyl-5-ethylhydantoin (PEH; nirvanol), and S-MHT undergoing aromatic hydroxylation to 4-OH-MHT, with formation of an intermediate arene oxide metabolite. PEH is responsible for the therapeutic
