Product Description
(3S,4R)-Tofacitinib (Tofacitinib Impurity B) is a less active isomer/enantiomer of Tofacitinib (CP-690550; tasocitinib; Xeljanz), which is an inhibitor of JAK3 (Janus-Associated kinase, IC50 = 1 nM) and an FDA approved drug for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis, and ulcerative colitis.
(3S,4R)-Tofacitinib is the less active enantiomer of tofacitinib, a Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor used for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and ulcerative colitis. Its molecular formula is C16H20N6O with a molecular weight of 312.37. Tofacitinib inhibits JAK3 with an IC50 of 1 nM and is 20- to 100-fold less potent against JAK2 and JAK1. (3S,4R)-Tofacitinib is used as a reference standard for chiral analysis and as a negative control in JAK inhibitor studies.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Impurity of Tofacitinib
The primary target of (3S,4R)-Tofacitinib is the Janus kinase (JAK) family, particularly JAK3. JAK3 is a tyrosine kinase that associates with the common gamma chain of cytokine receptors and mediates signaling through IL-2, IL-4, IL-7, IL-9, IL-15, and IL-21. (3S,4R)-Tofacitinib is the less active enantiomer of tofacitinib and exhibits reduced potency compared to the active enantiomer.
ln Vitro
(3S,4R)-Tofacitinib is a Tofacitinib Impurity and is less active against JAK3.
In vitro, (3S,4R)-Tofacitinib exhibits reduced potency compared to the active enantiomer of tofacitinib. Tofacitinib inhibits JAK3 with an IC50 of 1 nM and is 20- to 100-fold less potent against JAK2 and JAK1. The (3S,4R) enantiomer is used as a negative control in JAK inhibitor assays to demonstrate stereoselective activity. It is a reference standard for chiral analysis.
ln Vivo
In vivo activity data for (3S,4R)-Tofacitinib are limited in public literature. As the less active enantiomer, it would be expected to show reduced efficacy compared to the active enantiomer in animal models of autoimmune diseases. However, detailed pharmacokinetic and efficacy data are not extensively reported. It remains a research tool for studying JAK inhibitor stereoselectivity.
Enzyme Assay
For non-cellular kinase assays, recombinant JAK3 is incubated with a peptide substrate and ATP in kinase buffer. Serial dilutions of (3S,4R)-Tofacitinib are added, and the reaction is incubated at 30°C for 30-60 minutes. ADP production is measured using the ADP-Glo Kinase Assay kit. IC50 values are determined and compared to the active enantiomer to assess stereoselectivity.
Cell Assay
For cell-based assays, JAK3-dependent cell lines (e.g., CTLL-2) are cultured and treated with serial dilutions of (3S,4R)-Tofacitinib. Cell proliferation is measured by [3H]-thymidine incorporation or MTT assay. STAT5 phosphorylation is assessed by Western blot. The compound is used as a negative control in JAK inhibitor studies.
Animal Protocol
For in vivo experiments, (3S,4R)-Tofacitinib would be administered to rodents in models of autoimmune disease (e.g., collagen-induced arthritis) via oral gavage. However, as the less active enantiomer, it is primarily used as a reference standard rather than for in vivo efficacy studies.

  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
