Ref. 3D-RLB98210

Product Information

• Name: Pregabalin Impurity 13 (4-Isobutyl-2,6-piperidinedione)
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Pregabalin Impurity 13 is a stereoselective, synthetic compound that has been shown to be an inhibitor of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptors. It can be synthesized by reacting 4-isobutyl-2,6-piperidinedione with hydrochloric acid and xylene. Pregabalin Impurity 13 binds to the amino acid sequence of GABA receptors in such a way as to prevent them from opening. This prevents the binding of GABA molecules to the receptor and reduces the duration of inhibition of these receptors. Pregabalin Impurity 13 has been shown to have antimicrobial activity against faecalis, which is found in human intestines and can cause infection. The environmental pollution caused by this impurity is due to its xylene content.
