  • Publication number: 20100087658
    Abstract: Methods and intermediates for the synthesis of selective inhibitors of dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) are provided. Coupling of a carboxylate salt with a boro-proline derivative provides a protected form of a DPP-IV inhibitor, which may be deblocked to yield the medicinal compound. The carboxylate salt can be a crystalline form of a sodium salt or a dicyclohexylammonium salt. The inhibitor can be used in the treatment of diabetes.

  • Publication number: 20100081203
    Abstract: The present invention provides novel reactive fluorescent compounds that incorporate stable isotopic (deuterium, 13-carbon, 15-nitrogen, 18-oxygen) substitutions. The invention includes the use of these compounds, in combination with non-isotopically substituted analogs, for the purification, identification and relative quantification of proteins, peptides, saccharides, metabolites, and other biologically important compounds by combining liquid chromatography (LC) and mass spectrometry (MS). Fluorescent labeling of target compounds in this manner provides orders-of-magnitude sensitivity enhancement over traditional stable isotope labels, and also affords the possibility of simultaneous multiplexed analysis due to the multiwavelength nature of different fluorophores.
