fine white powder, melting point 233-235 ° C. (decomposition).
In 4-aminobutyric acid and phosphoric acid, phosphorus trihalide was added dropwise for reaction. When the reactants had hardened, they were heated again, water was added for hydrolysis, and after cooling, methanol was added and alendronic acid was collected.
alendronate sodium was previously developed by isitutogentili, Italy, and later transferred to Merck, USA, for continued development and Merck, Inc. for development. It was first launched in Italy in 1993. Bisphosphonate inhibitors of bone resorption. For the treatment of osteoporosis.

biological activity | alendonic acid, a bisphosphonate, is a farnesyl diphosphate synthase (FDPS) inhibitor. Alendronic acid inhibits osteoclast-mediated bone resorption. Alendronic acid has a therapeutic effect on postmenopausal osteoporosis, malignant hypercalcemia and Paget's disease. |
Use | bisphosphonate bone resorption inhibitors. For the treatment of osteoporosis. |
production method | 1mol of 4-aminobutyric acid is added to 1mol of molten 1.5mol of phosphoric acid at 95 °c, then 2mol of phosphorus trihalide was added dropwise over 60min. After the reaction had hardened, the reaction was heated for an additional 3H. Hydrolysis was carried out by addition of 64.6% ml of water, after cooling it was poured into ml of methanol, and the precipitate was collected to give of alendronic acid. |
