Vildagliptin [CAS: 274901-16-5] enhances glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus as a supplementary treatment to diet and exercise. It is used alone in patients who cannot take metformin due to contraindications or intolerance.
Vildagliptin: Use and Commercial Availability
Vildagliptin is a medication used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults. It helps to improve glycemic control by maintaining stable blood sugar levels. Vildagliptin is for adults who require additional glycemic control beyond what insulin alone can achieve. Vildagliptin is available under Jalra, Xiliarx, etc.
Vildagliptin Structure and Mechanism of Action
The chemical name of Vildagliptin is (2S)-1-[2-[(3-Hydroxytricyclo[3.3.1.13,7]dec-1-yl)amino]acetyl]-2-pyrrolidinecarbonitrile. Its chemical formula is C17H25N3O2, and its molecular weight is approximately 303.4 g/mol.
Vildagliptin selectively inhibits the enzyme dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) that inactivates the release of Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and incretin hormones from intestinal cells.
Vildagliptin Impurities and Synthesis
Vildagliptin impurities can arise during synthesis1 due to the storage or use of specific raw materials and intermediates in manufacturing. These impurities encompass related compounds, degradation products, and process impurities. Stringent quality control measures and analytical methods are crucial to ensure the purity and safety of Vildagliptin for patient use.
Daicel Pharma provides a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (CoA) for Vildagliptin impurity standards, such as (2R)-1-(Chloroacetyl)-2-pyrrolidinecarbonitrile, 1-(2-chloro-2-(((1R,3S,5R)-3-hydroxyadamantan-1-yl)amino)acetyl) pyrrolidine-2-carbonitrile,3-Amino-1-adamantanol, VDN-Dihydroxy Impurity, 1-(((1r,3R,5S)-3,5-dihydroxyadamantan-1-yl)glycyl) pyrrolidine-2-carbonitrile, Vildagliptin Mono Keto Impurity, Vildagliptin related compound A, and many more. The CoA includes detailed characterization data such as 1H NMR, 13C NMR, IR, MASS, and HPLC purity2. Additionally, upon delivery, we give 13C-DEPT. Daicel possesses the technology and expertise to synthesize any unknown Vildagliptin impurity or degradation product.
