Abstract

A new tadalafil analogue, acetaminotadalafil, was detected by HPLC in a bulk powder that is being used as an ingredient formanufacturing dietary supplements. The analogue was isolated by semi-preparative HPLC. A chemical structure of the new compound was elucidated by HPLC, LC-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LC-Q-TOF/MS), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), infrared (IR) and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy. The compound was identified as an acetylatedcompound of aminotadalafil. The structure of the previous unknown compound was confirmed as (6R,12aR)-2-acetamino-6-(1,3-benzodioxol-5-yl)-2,3,6,7,12,12a-hexahydro-pyrazino[1′,2′:1,6]pyrido[3,4-b]indole-1,4-dione and named as acetaminotadalafil.
