Original question:

1.) Product name: Dipotin A.

Molecular Formula: C17H31N3O4

Website found: http://www.biovision.com/diprotin-a-5940.html

2.) Product Name: Diprotin B

Molecular Formula: C16H29N3O4

Website Found: http://www.biovision.com/diprotin-b-5941.html

3.) Product name: Linagliptin

Molecular Formula: C25H26N8O2

Molecular Formula: C17H24N6O

Webiste found: http://www.biovision.com/dpp-iv-inhibitor-k-579-5036.html

DPPIV inhibitors are new drugs for diabetic patients. Provide a summary of all commercial DPPIV inhibitors, their structures, functional groups in each of these molecules, the names of pharmaceutical companies that make them. Are these drugs better than other diabetic drugs?

Explanation / Answer

1. Functional groups present in Diprotin A are carboxylic acid(-COOH) amine(-NH2) and amide (-CONH-).

2. Functional groups present in Diprotin B are carboxylic acid(-COOH) amine(-NH2) and amide (-CONH-).

3. Functional groups present in Linagliptin are amine(-NH2), amide(CO-N- or CO-NH-)

4. Functional groups present in DPPIV, K 578 are nitrile(-CN), amide(CO-N- or CO-NH-) and amine( secondary amine and tertiary amine).
