BI-1356 (Linagliptin) is a highly potent and selective dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitor (IC50 = 1 nM) for treatment of type II diabetes. [1] BI-1356 can increase incretin levels (GLP-1 and GIP), which increases insulin secretion and inhibits glucagon release, decreases gastric emptying, and decreases blood glucose levels. BI-1356 shows 10,000-fold more selectivity for DPP-4 against other protease/peptidases, including DPP-8, DPP-9, trypsin, plasmin, and thrombin, It is a DPP-4 inhibitor developed by Boehringer Ingelheim for the treatment of type II diabetes.

INTRODUCTION
Linagliptin (BI-1356, trade names Tradjenta and Trajenta) is a DPP-4 inhibitor developed by Boehringer Ingelheim for treatment of type II diabetes.Linagliptin (once-daily) was approved by the US FDA on 2 May 2011 for treatment of type II diabetes.[1] It is being marketed by Boehringer Ingelheim and Lilly.
- Linagliptin, namely 8-(3R)-3-aminopiperidinyl)-7-butyn-2-yl-3-methyl-1-(4-methylquinazolin-2-ylmethyl)-3,7-dihydropurine-2,6-dione, of formula (A), is a long acting inhibitor of dipeptidylpeptidase-IV (DPP-IV) activity, at present under development for the treatment of type II diabetes mellitus.
- The synthesis of Linagliptin is reported in US 7,407,955 , according to the scheme below, where 8-bromo xanthine of formula (B) is condensed with 3-(R)-Boc-aminopiperidine of formula (C) to obtain a compound of formula (D), which is converted to Linagliptin (A) by deprotection of the amine function
- Optically active 3-aminopiperidine protected as the tert-butylcarbamate (Boc), compound (C), although commercially available, is very expensive and difficult to prepare; moreover in this process impurities are very difficult to remove, particularly on an industrial scale, in particular because of the Boc protective group. For this reason,US 2009/0192314 discloses a novel process for the preparation of Linagliptin (A) which makes use of a 3-(R)-aminopiperidine protected as a phthalimide of formula (E).
- Accordingly, a compound of formula (E) can be prepared starting from 3-aminopyridine by hydrogenation, reaction with phthalic anhydride, resolution through diastereoisomeric salts using expensive D-tartaric acid, and then cleavage of the tartrate salt.
- This intermediate is, however, still expensive and its use in the substitution reaction of the bromine derivative of formula (B) is still poorly efficient, as it takes place under drastic reaction conditions.
- As it can be noted, these processes make use of drastic reaction conditions, or expensive, difficult to prepare starting materials, thus negatively affecting costs. There is therefore the need for an alternative synthetic route to provide Linagliptin or a salt thereof with high enantiomeric and chemical purity, from low cost starting materials.

PCT
Publications WO 2004/018468 and WO 2006/048427 describe synthesis of
Linagliptin. Crystalline forms of Linagliptin, Forms A, B, C, D, and E
are described in the PCT Publication No. WO 2007/128721. According to WO
2007/128721, Linagliptin prepared according to Publication No.WO 2004/018468 is present in ambient temperature as a mixture of two enantiotropic polymorphs. The temperature at which the two polymorphs transform into one another is 25±15° C. The pure high temperature form (polymorph A), can be obtained by heating the mixture to temperatures>40° C. The low temperature form (polymorph B) is obtained by cooling to temperatures<10° C.”.
According to WO 2007/128721, the transition point between forms A and B is at room temperature, such that they exist as a polymorphic mixture. In addition, WO 2007/128721 teaches that form D “is obtained if polymorph C is heated to a temperature of 30-100° C. or dried at this temperature”. Since the procedure to obtain form C according to this application includes drying at 70° C., the dried form C is expected to be obtained in admixture with form D.
WO 2007/128721 teaches that Form E is obtained only at high temperatures (after melting of form D at 150±3° C.), and therefore is not relevant industrially.

By employing a rhodium–Duanphos complex as the catalyst, β-alkyl (Z)-N-acetyldehydroamino esters were smoothly hydrogenated in a highly efficient and enantioselective way. Excellent enantioselectivities together with excellent yields were achieved for a series of substrates. An efficient approach for the synthesis of the intermediate of the orally administered anti-diabetic drugs Alogliptin and Linagliptin in the DPP-4 inhibitor class was also developed.
Mechanism of action
Linagliptin is an inhibitor of DPP-4, an enzyme that degrades the incretin hormones glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP). Both GLP-1 and GIP increase insulin biosynthesis and secretion from pancreatic beta cells in the presence of normal and elevated blood glucose levels. GLP-1 also reduces glucagon secretion from pancreatic alpha cells, resulting in a reduction in hepatic glucose output. Thus, linagliptin stimulates the release of insulin in a glucose-dependent manner and decreases the levels of glucagon in the circulation.PAPER
