Product Information

• Name: Desfluoro atorvastatin
• Synonyms: Atorvastatin impurity A(3R,5R)-3,5-Dihydroxy-7-[5-(1-methylethyl)-2,3-diphenyl-4-(phenylcarbamoyl)-1H-pyrrol-1-yl]heptanoic acid
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Desfluoro atorvastatin is a crystalline polymorph of atorvastatin that has been shown to have improved flowrate and dissolution profile compared with the conventional form. Desfluoro atorvastatin is synthesized by adding a fluorine atom to a specific position in the molecule. The synthesis procedure includes chromatographic purification and analysis of impurities, which are then eliminated by diode laser irradiation. Impurities may also be eliminated through hydrogenation or recrystallization.
