G protein-coupled receptor 6 (GCPR6) inverse agonist, antiparkinsonian, CVN 424, PHASE 3, Parkinson’s disease

Solangepras (developmental code name CVN-424, also spelled solengepras) is an investigational, orally active small molecule drug currently in Phase 3 clinical trials for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease. Developed by the biotech company Cerevance, it represents a potentially first-in-class non-dopaminergic therapy designed to improve motor control without the debilitating side effects often triggered by traditional dopamine replacements.

Mechanism of Action

Unlike standard Parkinson’s treatments (such as levodopa) that directly target and stimulate dopamine pathways, solangepras utilizes an innovative, highly targeted pathway:

  • GPR6 Inverse Agonist: It selectively targets the G protein-coupled receptor 6 (GPR6), an orphan receptor primarily localized in the striatopalidal medium spiny neurons of the basal ganglia.
  • Modulating the “Brake” Circuit: In Parkinson’s disease, the indirect brain circuit that inhibits unwanted movement acts as an overactive “brake”. By decreasing intracellular cyclic AMP (cAMP) levels, solangepras reduces this excessive inhibitory signaling.
  • Restoring Circuit Balance: It restores balance to the basal ganglia circuit, facilitating better motor function without causing dopamine-related side effects like levodopa-induced dyskinesia (involuntary movements).

Clinical Trial Status

Solangepras is being evaluated across different stages of Parkinson’s disease, shifting focus primarily toward combination therapy:

Clinical Trial / PhaseTreatment TypeResults & Focus
Phase 2 (ASCEND Trial)Monotherapy (Early, untreated patients)Missed its primary endpoint. It did not demonstrate superior efficacy alone for early-stage patients, though it showed positive trends in non-motor symptoms.
Phase 2 (NCT04191577)Adjunctive Therapy (Combination with levodopa)Successful. Demonstrated a clinically meaningful reduction in daily “OFF time” (periods when standard medication wears off and symptoms return) and increased “ON time” without dyskinesia.
Phase 3 (ARISE Trial)Adjunctive TherapyOngoing. Dosing began late last year to assess efficacy in 330 patients experiencing motor fluctuations, focusing on long-term daily OFF-time reduction.

nicotinic acetylcholine receptor negative allosteric, modulator, anxiolytic, BNC210, IW-2143, BNC 210, IW 2143, QP49AY37OY

BNC-210 is under investigation in clinical trial NCT04951076 (A Phase 2b Study of BNC210 Tablet Formulation in Adults With Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)).

Soclenicant (also known by its developmental code names BNC210 and IW-2143) is an investigational, orally active small-molecule drug developed to treat anxiety and stressor-related disorders. It is chemically classified as a synthetic heterocyclic compound based on a 1,8-naphthyridin-4-one scaffold.

Unlike traditional anxiety medications like benzodiazepines, it is designed to provide targeted relief without causing side effects like sedation, motor impairment, memory issues, or physical dependence.

Mechanism of Action

Soclenicant functions as a highly selective negative allosteric modulator (NAM) of the α7-nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α₇ nAChR).

  • It works by tuning down the electric currents induced by neurotransmitters like acetylcholine and nicotine specifically at this receptor subtype.
  • In preclinical rodent models, it demonstrated strong acute anxiolytic (anti-anxiety), anti-stress, and antidepressant-like behaviors.

Clinical Development Status

The drug was originally engineered by Bionomics and saw collaborative development alongside entities like Ironwood Pharmaceuticals. Bionomics was acquired by Neuphoria Therapeutics in late 2024.

However, the drug’s clinical pipeline faced a massive setback:

  • Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD) Flop: In late 2025, a Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating a single 225-mg dose of soclenicant for the acute treatment of social anxiety disorder failed to meet its primary endpoint. It showed no statistically significant improvement in patient distress levels during a public speaking challenge compared to a placebo.
  • Current Status: Following the Phase 3 failure, Neuphoria Therapeutics discontinued the social anxiety program and triggered a strategic corporate review. While it has historically been granted FDA Fast Track designation for generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) and explored for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), the future development pipeline remains uncertain

Soclenicant (INNTooltip International Nonproprietary Name),[3] also known by its developmental code names BNC210 and IW-2143, is an antinicotinic agent which is under development for the treatment of anxiety disorders such as social phobia and generalized anxiety disorder, as well as for treatment of agitation, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and depressive disorders.[1][4][5] It is taken by mouth.[4]

The drug acts as a highly selective negative allosteric modulator (NAM) of the α7-nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α7-nAChR).[1][6][4][5] It produces anxiolytic-, anti-stress-, and antidepressant-like effects without causing sedation, memory or motor impairment, or physical dependence in rodents.[6] Chemically, soclenicant is a synthetic heterocyclic small-molecule compound based on a 1,8-naphthyridin-4-one scaffold, bearing amide and amine functionalities.[7]

Soclenicant is being developed by Bionomics.[4] It has also been developed by Ironwood Pharmaceuticals and EmpathBio.[4][5] Bionomics was acquired by Neuphoria Therapeutics in December 2024.[4] As of December 2024, soclenicant is in phase 3 clinical trials for anxiety disorders, phase 2 trials for agitation and PTSD, and no recent development has been reported for depressive disorders.[4][5] The drug received Fast Track designation from the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2019.[8] It was first described in the literature, in a conference abstract, by 2007.[2]

thyroid hormone beta receptor agonist, 4G7Z7KQ8GV 

Simedeutirom is a selective, synthetic, deuterium-labeled thyroid hormone receptor beta (THR-β) agonist. It features a novel cyclopentadd𝑑pyridazine core and is primarily utilized as a specialized tool compound in the biochemical research of metabolic diseases, including obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and related metabolic disorders. 

Core Structural & Pharmacological Profile

  • Target Selectivity: It functions as a potent agonist specifically targeting the thyroid hormone receptor beta (THR-β), with an half-maximal effective concentration (EC₅₀) ranging between 0.1 to 1 μM. THR-β activation plays a foundational role in modulating hepatic lipid metabolism, lowering cholesterol, and regulating overall energy expenditure without heavily triggering the alpha receptor (THR-α), which is associated with adverse cardiac side effects. 
  • Deuterium Labeling: The compound incorporates deuterium (a stable isotope of hydrogen) into its chemical architecture, specifically modified as a trideuteriomethyl group. Isotopic modification or “deuteration” is an established medicinal chemistry approach frequently evaluated to slow metabolic clearance and increase structural stability.

Example 1 Preparation of crude free base of compound I

Step 1: preparation of compound b

N-(3,5-dichloro-4-((7-(methyl-d3)-1-oxo-2,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-cyclopenta [d]pyridazin-4-yl)oxy)phenyl)benzamid

 4.62 kg of compound a was completely dissolved in 25.0 L of glacial acetic acid and added to a 100 L reaction kettle, 3300 g of benzoic anhydride was added, and the mixture was reacted at room temperature for about 4 hours with stirring turned on. The reaction was monitored by TLC (n-hexane/ethyl acetate=5/1) until compound a disappeared, then 2722 g of anhydrous sodium acetate was additionally added and the temperature was increased to 120° C. for a reaction under stirring for about 18 hours.
      The reaction solution was cooled to 60-65° C., and concentrated under reduced pressure to remove most of the acetic acid. After the concentration was completed, 10 L of anhydrous ethanol was added to the residue and uniformly mixed. Then the mixed solution was slowly added to 250 L of water, while maintaining the rapid stirring, and a large amount of solid precipitated during the addition, and stirring was continued for about 0.5 hours after the addition, followed by centrifugation. The filter cake was washed with purified water (20 L×2) to give compound b in 100% yield, which went directly to the next step.

Step 2: preparation of compound c

4-(4-amino-2,6-dichlorophenoxy)-7-(methyl-d3)-2,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-cyclopenta [d]pyridazin-1-on

To a 100 L reaction kettle, 5.76 kg of the crude compound b from the previous step, a potassium hydroxide solution (2606 g KOH dissolved in 19.5 L of purified water) and 6.0 L of anhydrous ethanol were added under stirring. After the complete addition, the mixture was heated to reflux and reacted for about 16 hours, and the raw material was controlled for a complete reaction.
      The temperature was reduced to 25° C., 30 L of water was added, the pH was adjusted to 8-9 with an ammonium chloride solid, and 35.0 L of ethyl acetate was added and stirred. The solution was phase-separated. The aqueous phase was extracted with ethyl acetate (15.0 L×2). The organic phases were combined and washed with a 5% aqueous sodium chloride solution (25 L×2).

epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor, antineoplastic, BDTX-1535, BDTX 1535, CANCER, Glioblastoma, Black Diamond Therapeutics, RP9F537KVY

Silevertinib is an investigational new drug that is being evaluated by Black Diamond Therapeutics for the treatment of glioblastoma and non-small cell lung cancer.[1] It is a EGFR protein tyrosine kinase inhibitor.[1][2]

Silevertinib (formerly known as BDTX-1535) is an investigational, orally bioavailable, fourth-generation epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) developed by Black Diamond Therapeutics. It is specifically engineered to be brain-penetrant and to target a broad spectrum of both classical and non-classical EGFR mutations, as well as resistance mutations, while sparing wild-type EGFR to reduce side effects.

Silevertinib is an orally bioavailable, brain penetrating, mutant-selective, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitor, with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon oral administration, silevertinib selectively targets, irreversibly binds to, and inhibits the activity of various EGFR alterations and mutations, including certain intrinsic and acquired resistance mutations. This prevents EGFR-mediated signaling in susceptible tumor cells. This may both induce cell death and inhibit tumor growth in EGFR-overexpressing tumor cells. EGFR, a receptor tyrosine kinase mutated in many tumor cell types, plays a key role in tumor cell proliferation and tumor vascularization.

Mechanism of Action

Silevertinib works by selectively and irreversibly binding to mutated EGFR receptors. EGFR is a receptor tyrosine kinase that, when mutated, triggers uncontrolled cell division and tumor vascularization. By shutting down this signaling cascade, silevertinib induces tumor cell death and inhibits further growth.

A major clinical advantage of the drug is its ability to cross the blood-brain barrier, allowing it to target central nervous system (CNS) tumors and brain metastases that many traditional therapies fail to reach.

Target Indications & Clinical Data

Silevertinib is primarily being studied for two aggressive types of cancer:

  • Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC): It targets frontline patients with classical and over 50 non-classical EGFR driver mutations, as well as patients who have developed the acquired C797S resistance mutation from prior treatments. Phase 2 clinical trial data presented at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) 2026 Annual Meeting showcased robust efficacy:
    • Objective Response Rate (ORR): 60% in treatment-naïve patients.
    • CNS Response Rate: An impressive 86% intracranial ORR in patients presenting with brain metastases.
    • Disease Control Rate (DCR): 91%.
  • Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM): In May 2026, a randomized Phase 2 trial was initiated for newly diagnosed patients with EGFRvIII-positive, MGMT-negative glioblastoma, evaluating silevertinib in combination with temozolomide.

Safety Profile & Side Effects

The adverse events of silevertinib are consistent with the broader class of EGFR inhibitors. The most frequently reported treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) include:

  • Rash
  • Diarrhea
  • Stomatitis (mouth sores)
  • Paronychia (nail bed inflammation)

While a high percentage of patients (up to 77–84%) require dose reductions to manage these side effects, data shows that 86% of responding patients maintained or deepened their clinical response even after dropping to a lower dose. The treatment discontinuation rate remains low at roughly 9–14%, indicating the drug is manageable for long-term therapy.

Regulatory Status

As an investigational drug, silevertinib is not yet approved for commercial use by global regulatory agencies. However, the manufacturer anticipates regulatory feedback from the US FDA regarding its registration pathway for first-line NSCLC therapy.

To use with positron emission tomography to differentiate recurrent or progressive glioma from treatment-related change in conjunction with other diagnostic evaluations

Floretyrosine F 18 (brand name Pixclara®, also known as 18F-FET) is a newly FDA-approved radiopharmaceutical imaging drug used in positron emission tomography (PET) scans for patients with glioma (brain cancer). Developed by Telix Pharmaceuticals, it received formal U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval on September 14, 2026, making it the first and only approved FET-PET diagnostic tracer for brain tumors in the United States.

Primary Clinical Indication

Pixclara is indicated for use in both adult and pediatric patients (1 month of age and older).

Its primary clinical purpose is to differentiate recurrent or progressive glioma from treatment-related changes (such as radiation necrosis or inflammation). Following chemotherapy or radiation, traditional MRI scans often show areas that “light up,” making it incredibly difficult for neuro-oncologists to tell whether a tumor is growing back or if the brain is simply healing from harsh treatments. Pixclara solves this diagnostic dilemma by providing metabolic clarity.

How It Works (Mechanism of Action)

  • Targeted Delivery: Floretyrosine F 18 is a synthetic amino acid analogue labeled with the radioactive isotope fluorine-18. [1, 2]
  • Cellular Uptake: Once injected intravenously, it specifically targets and binds to L-type amino acid transporters 1 and 2 (LAT1 and LAT2). These transporters are heavily overexpressed on the membranes of active glioma cells compared to healthy brain tissue.
  • PET Detection: The tumor cells rapidly absorb the tracer, and the energy emissions from the fluorine-18 isotope are captured by a PET scanner, creating a highly accurate metabolic map of the tumor.

Strategic & Future Impact

The approval aligns U.S. practice with international clinical guidelines—such as the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) Guidelines®—which already recommend FET-PET imaging for brain tumor management. Furthermore, Telix Pharmaceuticals is currently conducting a Phase 3 registrational study to expand Pixclara’s indication to include the diagnosis and characterization of brain metastases (cancers that have spread to the brain from other parts of the body)

Fluoroethyl-l-tyrosine (18F), commonly known as [18F]FET, is a radiopharmaceutical tracer used in positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. This synthetic amino acid, labeled with the radioactive isotope fluorine-18, is a valuable radiopharmaceutical tracer for use in neuro-oncology for diagnosing, planning treatment, and following up on brain tumors such as gliomas. The tracer’s ability to provide detailed metabolic imaging of tumors makes it an essential tool in the clinical management of brain cancer patients. Continued advancements in PET imaging technology and the development of more efficient synthesis methods are expected to further enhance the clinical utility of [18F]FET.[2]

Radiosynthesis

There are two common pathways for the radiosynthesis of [18F]FET. The first one utilizes a nucleophilic 18F-fluorination of ethyleneglycol-1,2-ditosylate with a subsequent 18F-fluoroethylation of a precursor di-sodium salt of L-tyrosine. This sequence requires two purification steps, two different precursors and a dual-reactor synthesis module which is not widely available in research or commercial centers.[3][4][5] The schematic for this pathway is:[6]

Figure 1. Schematic of radiosynthesis using two-step two-pot pathway.

The second route of radiosynthesis is a direct nucleophilic 18F-fluorination a TET (O-(2-tosyloxy-ethyl)-N-trityl-L-tyrosine tert-butyl ester) protected precursor followed by acidic hydrolysis of protecting groups.[3][4][7] The schematic for this pathway is:[6]

Another example of an 18F-fluoroalkylation reaction to obtain a PET tracer is the reaction described by Wang et al (2006 J Radioanalyt Nuc Chem; 270(2): 439-43) used to obtain the 18F-labeled amino acid O-(2-[ 18F]fluoroethyl)-L-tyrosine ([ 18F]FET):

  [ 18F]Fluoroethyl tosylate was prepared in step (i) by displacement of a tosyl group from 1,2-bistosyloxyethane by reaction with K 18F/Kryptofix 2.2.2 in acetonitrile at 90° C. for 10 minutes. The purified [ 18F]fluoroethyl tosylate was then reacted in step (ii) with a solution of L-tyrosine and 10% aqueous NaOH in DMSO (or di-Na-salt of L-tyrosine in DMSO) 20 minutes at 90° C. to obtain [ 18F]FET. In contrast to the method for preparation of 18F-labelled S-fluoroalkyl diarylguanidines as reported by Robins et al (supra), this method for preparation of [ 18F]FET uses a soluble base in the alkylation reaction. However, the reaction is still not ideal for carrying out on an automated synthesis device that uses a cassette due to the fact that and additional vial is required for the base used for the subsequent fluoroalkylation step.

E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase Mdm2 (Hdm2) degrader, antineoplastic, KT 253, KT-253, VNP2BV6KGL

Seldegamadlin (also known as KT-253) is an advanced experimental oncology drug designed as a first-in-class, highly potent MDM2 PROTAC degrader and p53 stabilizer. It utilizes targeted protein degradation (TPD) technology to selectively eliminate the MDM2 oncoprotein, which restores the normal function of the critical tumor suppressor protein, p53.

How it Works

  • Targeted Protein Degradation: It acts as a heterobifunctional PROTAC (proteolysis-targeting chimera). It features one end that binds tightly to MDM2 and another end that recruits the cereblon (CRBN) E3 ubiquitin ligase.
  • p53 Stabilization: By tethering them together, it forces the cell’s natural disposal machinery to ubiquitinate and rapidly destroy MDM2. Because MDM2 normally suppresses and destroys p53, deleting MDM2 leads to an immediate up-regulation and stabilization of active p53.
  • Apoptosis Activation: The sudden resurgence of active p53 fires up downstream targets like p21, forcing wild-type p53 cancer cells to halt their cell cycle (at the G2/M phase) and trigger rapid programmed cell death (apoptosis).

Primary Areas of Research

Seldegamadlin is actively being evaluated and researched for therapeutic efficacy against specific wild-type p53 malignancies:

  • Hematologic Tumours: Including Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) and Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL).
  • Solid Tumours: Such as Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) and other forms retaining functional p53 signaling pathways

protease inhibitor, antiviral, S-892216, S 892216, FMV68MJ8XK

Secutrelvir (also known by its developmental code S-892216) is an advanced, next-generation oral antiviral drug developed by the pharmaceutical company Shionogi. It functions as a potent SARS-CoV-2 3C-like protease (3CLpro / \(M^{\text{pro}}\)) inhibitor designed primarily for the treatment of COVID-19.

As of August 2026, the drug has entered late-stage development, with Shionogi moving into Phase 3 clinical trials to assess its efficacy and safety in patients.

Key Properties & Advantages

Unlike first-generation COVID-19 antivirals, secutrelvir was structurally optimized to address the limitations of existing treatments like Paxlovid (nirmatrelvir/ritonavir) and Shionogi’s own Xocova (ensitrelvir).

  • No CYP Booster Required: Secutrelvir offers 100% oral bioavailability without needing a pharmacokinetic booster like ritonavir. This dramatically reduces the risk of severe drug-drug interactions that complicate Paxlovid prescriptions.
  • Overcoming Viral Resistance: In laboratory assays, the compound demonstrates zero cross-resistance to viral mutants that have grown resistant to nirmatrelvir or ensitrelvir (such as those carrying E166V or M49L mutations).
  • High Off-Target Selectivity: It features high selectivity (>15,000-fold) over human proteases, ensuring it specifically targets viral replication without disrupting normal human cellular functions.
  • Broad Spectrum (Pan- β-CoV): The compound maintains high potency against a wide range of SARS-CoV-2 variants—including newer strains like Omicron JN.1—as well as other coronaviruses like SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV.

Mechanism of Action

Secutrelvir relies on a structure-based design incorporating a nitrile warhead. It enters the catalytic active site of the virus’s main protease (\(M^{\text{pro}}\)) and forms a reversible covalent bond with the catalytic amino acid residue cysteine C145. By binding to this pocket, it halts the protease from cutting viral polyproteins, effectively stopping viral replication in its tracks.

Clinical Evaluation Status

  • Pharmacokinetics: Clinical pharmacology data released by Shionogi Medical demonstrated excellent safety, high tolerability, and no clinically relevant food effects, meaning the drug can be taken with or without food.
  • Phase 3 Trials (NCT07743580 / NCT07746544): Late-stage double-blind, placebo-controlled interventional studies are assessing the drug in symptomatic, non-hospitalized COVID-19 patients who are at risk of progressing to severe illness. To qualify for the trials, patients must receive the drug within 72 hours of symptom onset

Rugocrixan (also known by its developmental codes KAND567 and AZD8797) is a first-in-class, orally active small molecule drug candidate developed by Novakand Pharma (formerly Kancera). It acts as a potent, non-competitive allosteric antagonist of the CX3CR1 receptor, which is commonly referred to as the fractalkine receptor. By blocking this specific pathway, the drug prevents hyperinflammation and inhibits the proliferation and DNA repair mechanisms of certain cancer cells.

KAND567, a small molecule, blocks the fractaline (CX3CL1) receptor, which mediates the immune system response to inflammation. Because COVID-19 involves cytotoxic cells associated with this pathway, KAND567 is currently being tested as a treatment for those with the illness.

Key Clinical Developments and Therapeutic Focus

Originally acquired from AstraZeneca, the drug has advanced into multiple Phase II clinical trials. Novakand Pharma transitioned its core business strategy to focus heavily on orphan drug designations for niche, treatment-resistant conditions. Its primary areas of investigation include:

  • Ovarian Cancer: Evaluated in the Phase IIa “KANDOVA” clinical trial for patients with treatment-resistant ovarian cancer. It functions by suppressing DNA repair in tumor cells, which enhances the effectiveness of platinum-based chemotherapy and drives the cancer cells into programmed cell death.
  • Hematological Cancers: In preclinical studies alongside institutions like the Karolinska Institutet, rugocrixan has demonstrated a capability to block the unwanted growth-promoting effects of immune cells on advanced blood cancers, such as chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).
  • Cardioprotection: Investigated via the “FRACTAL” Phase IIa trial in patients suffering from acute myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing angioplasty. The drug met its safety endpoints and showed signals of protecting heart tissue by reducing myocardial bleeding and the risk of thrombosis.

Companion Prodrug

Novakand Pharma is also developing a second-generation, water-soluble phosphate prodrug named fosrugocrixan (KAND145). Once administered, fosrugocrixan is metabolized into the active form of rugocrixan, offering enhanced product properties for intravenous or alternative delivery methods.

Because rugocrixan targets a brand-new pharmacological pathway, the World Health Organization (WHO) assigned it a unique suffix stem, establishing it as the international nomenclature standard for this entire new class of CX3CR1 antagonists

.xHCI

Compound 4 (1 .852 g, 5.74 mmol), DIPEA (1.1 12 g, 8.61 mmol) and D-leucinol (1.008 g, 8.61 mmmol) were dissolved in NMP (12 ml.) and the mixture was stirred at 120 °C in a sealed pyrex tube (start: 17:40).

HPLC after 15.5 h: ca. 98% conversion

HPLC after 19.5 h: >99% conversion

Work up: Ice water was poured into the mixture. Initially a solid was formed, but at the end of the addition the solid collapsed to a dark brown oil. EtOAc (50 ml.) was added and the phases were separated. The aqueous phase was extracted with EtOAc (2×25 ml_), and the combined organic phases were washed with water (8 ml_), sat. NaHC03 (3×8 ml_), water (8 ml.) and brine (8 ml_), dried over MgS04, filtered and evaporated. Dried in vacuum to yield 2.697 g of crude material as a brown oil. HPLC purity: ca. 92%. The oil was dissolved in MEK (ca. 18 mL) and cone. HCI (12.5 M, 574 pL, 7.18 mmol) was added. There was no spontaneous precipitation of the HCI salt. The mixture was gently stirred at RT and after ca. 20 min precipitation occurred. The mixture was stirred gently for 2.5 h and the solid was isolated by filtration on a P3 sintered glass filter. The solid was washed with three portions of MEK and was then dried in vacuum at 60 °C for 2.5 days. Yield (batch 1 ): 1 .224 g (48.5%) of the product as hydrochloride salt.

HPLC purity: 99.0% (basic method);

97.4% (acidic method).

A substantial amount of solids passed through the filter into the filtrate. The solids were isolated by centrifugation and the supernatant was removed by pipette. The solid was washed with two portions (ca. 2×5 mL) of MEK. After the last supernatant was removed the product was dried in vacuum at 60 °C for 2.5 days. Yield (batch 2): 324 mg (12.8%) of the product as hydrochloride salt.

HPLC purity: 99.0% (basic method);

97.5% (acidic method).

Combined yield: 1.548 g (61 .3%)

Both batches contain ca. 0.07% DMF (w/w). The DMF was already present in the starting material.

Further purification of the combined batches

The two batches of compound 5 were combined (1.338 g, 3.041 mmol) in a 50 mL roundbottomed flask and water (6 mL) was added followed by 2M NaOH (1.6 mL, 3.2 mmol). The mixture was stirred and EtOAc (40 mL) was added. An additional 0.5 mL (1 mmol) 2M NaOH was added during stirring. After 15 min all of the solids were dissolved and the phases were separated. The pH of the aqueous phase was measured with a pH stick =>pH=7. More 2M NaOH (0.4 mL, 0.8 mmol) was added to the aqueous phase resulting in a pH of 10. The aq. phase was extracted with EtOAc (25 mL) and the phases were separated. The combined organic phases were dried over Na2S04, filtered and evaporated to yield the free base as a crystalline beige solid. The free base was dissolved in MEK (15 mL) and HCI (37%, 12.5 M, 255 pL, 3.19 mmol) was added during stirring. A white precipitate was immediately formed. The mixture was stirred gently for 2 h and the solid was collected by filtration on a P4 sintered glass filter. The solids were washed with MEK (5 mL) and dried in vacuum at 60 °C for 3 h. Yield: 1.187 g (89% based on the unpurified material) of 99% pure product as a white solid. 1H NMR (600 MHz, CD30D) d ppm 7.49 (d, J=7.3 Hz, 2 H) 7.37 (t, J=7.6 Hz, 2 H) 7.27 – 7.32 (m, 1 H) 5.23 (q, J=7.0 Hz, 1 H) 4.60 – 4.70 (m, 1 H) 3.55 (d, J=5.5 Hz, 2 H) 1.83 (d, J=7.3 Hz, 3 H) 1.67 – 1.76 (m, 1 H) 1.58 -1.65 (m, 1 H) 1.48 – 1.54 (m, 1 H) 1.00 (d, J=6.7 Hz, 3 H) 0.98 (d,J=6.7 Hz, 3 H). MS (ESI+) m/z 404 [M+H]+

The diasteromeric ratio of the final product reflects the enantiomeric ratio of the starting material (compound 1 ), which was 99.7% (S).

1H NMR: The spectrum looks very pure. Trace amounts of DMF were, however, detected.
