Jones oxidation of Andrographolide (1), gave mixture of three products (3-dehydroandrographolide (5), 3,19-bis dehydroandrographolide (6) and 19-dehydroandrographolide (7). Tritylation of andrographolide at C19-OH resulted to products 8 and diene 9, which can be converted to its acetate 10 and oxidation product 11.
Five unknown impurities ranging from 0.05 to 0.2% in donepezil were detected by a simple isocratic reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). These impurities were isolated from crude sample of donepezil using isocratic reversed-phase preparative high performance liquid chromatography. Based on the spectral data (IR, NMR and MS), the structures of these impurities were characterised as 5,6-dimethoxy-2-(4-pyridylmethyl)-1-indanone (impurity I), 4-(5,6-dimethoxy-2,3-dihydro-1H-2-indenylmethyl) piperidine (impurity II), 2-(1-benzyl-4-piperdylmethyl)-5,6-dimethoxy-1-indanol (impurity III) 1-benzyl-4(5,6-dimethoxy-2,3-dihydro-1H-2-indenylmethyl) piperidine (impurity IV) and 1,1-dibenzyl-4(5,6-dimethoxy-1-oxo-2,3-dihydro-2H-2-indenylmethyl)hexahydropyridinium bromide (impurity V). The synthesis of these impurities and their formation was discussed.
Three unknown impurities and a byproduct in repaglinide bulk drug at levels below 0.1% (ranging from 0.05 to 0.1%) were detected by a simple isocratic reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method. These impurities were isolated from crude sample of repaglinide using reversed-phase preparative high performance liquid chromatography. Based on the spectroscopic data (IR, NMR and MS) the structures of these impurities (I, II and IV) and byproduct (III) were characterised as 4-carboxymethyl-2-ethoxy-benzoic acid (I), 4-cyclohexylaminocarbamoylmethyl-2-ethoxy-benzoic acid (II), 1-cyclohexyl-3-[3-methyl-1-(2-piperidin-1-yl-phenyl)-butyl]-urea (IV) and 1,3-dicyclohexyl urea (III), respectively. Their synthesis and formation is discussed.
