Carbon 14 and Carbon 13 Syntheses of Velagliflozin.

Velagliflozin is the active ingredient of the first oral liquid medication approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of diabetes in cats. This compound belongs to the known class of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors approved to treat diabetes in human. Here, we report the detailed synthesis of velagliflozin labeled with carbon 14 and carbon 13.

Stable isotope synthesis of glycine transporter 1 inhibitor Iclepertin (BI 425809) and its major metabolites.

Stable isotope labeled Iclepertin (BI 425809, 1) and its major metabolites are needed as internal standards in bioanalytical studies. BI 425809 consists of two main building blocks, 5-methylsulfonyl-2-[(1R)-2,2,2-trifluoro-1-methyl-ethoxy]benzoic acid (2) and 3-[(1R,5R)-3-azabicyclo[3.1.

Carbon 14 and stable isotope synthesis of two potent and selective phosphodiesterase type 4 inhibitors.

(R)-2-(4-(Benzo[d]oxazol-2-yl)piperazin-1-yl)-4-((tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)amino)-6,7-dihydrothieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine 5-oxide (1) and (R)-2-(4-(4-chlorophenoxy)piperidin-1-yl)-4-((tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)amino)-6,7-dihydrothieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine 5-oxide (2) are two potent and selective inhibitors of phosphodiesterase type 4 (PDE4). In this manuscript, we report the detailed synthesis of these two compounds labeled with carbon 14 and with stable isotopes. The core (R)-4-((tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)amino)-6,7-dihydrothieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine 5-oxide is common in both inhibitors.

Carbon 14 synthesis of glycine transporter 1 inhibitor Iclepertin (BI 425809) and its major metabolites.

Carbon 14 labeled Iclepertin (BI 425809, 1) and its major metabolites were needed for ADME and several other studies necessary for the advancement of this drug candidate in clinical trials. Iclepertin is composed of two main chemical blocks, (R)-5-(methylsulfonyl)-2-([1,1,1-trifluoropropan-2-yl]oxy)benzoic acid (2), and 3-[(1R,5R)-3-azabicyclo[3.1.

Synthesis of BI 894416 and BI 1342561, two potent and selective spleen tyrosine kinase inhibitors, labeled with carbon 14 and with deuterium.

(R)-4-((R)-1-((6-(1-[tert-butyl]-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-2-methyl-2H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyridin-4-yl)oxy)ethyl)pyrrolidin-2-one (BI 894416, 1) and (R)-4-((R)-1-((6-(1-[tert-butyl]-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-2,3-dimethyl-2H-indazol-4-yl)oxy)ethyl)pyrrolidin-2-one (BI 1342561, 2) are two new potent and selective spleen tyrosine kinase inhibitors developed to treat severe asthma. Both compounds have similar structures and they differ only in the bicyclic moiety 2-methyl-2H-pyrazolo[4,3-c]pyridine in 1 versus 2,3-dimethyl-2H-indazole in 2. In the carbon 14 synthesis, 1-(1-[tert-butyl]-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)ethan-1-one-1- C ([ C]-8) was prepared from the cyanation of 4-bromopyrazole using zinc [ C]cyanide followed by methyl lithium addition on the nitrile group.

Synthesis of beta-site amyloid precursor protein-cleaving enzyme 1 inhibitors BI 1147560 and BI 1181181 labeled with carbon-14 and deuterium.

The generation of amyloid beta peptides that aggregate in the brain is believed to play a major role in Alzheimer's disease. In theory, the inhibition of beta-site amyloid precursor protein-cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1), which catalyzes the initial rate-limiting step in amyloid beta production, may slow or stop Alzheimer's disease. Herein, we report the preparation of two potent BACE1 inhibitors, BI 1147560 (1) and BI 1181181 (2), labeled with carbon-14 and with deuterium.
