| Targets |
As an impurity reference, this compound does not have a defined pharmacological target. Ticagrelor, the parent drug, is a reversible, direct‑acting antagonist of the P2Y12 receptor on platelets, which is a G protein‑coupled receptor (GPCR) that plays a central role in adenosine diphosphate (ADP)‑induced platelet activation and aggregation. The cyclopropylamine core is a key structural motif in ticagrelor, and this compound may have structural similarity but is not intended to have P2Y12 antagonist activity.

|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
No specific in vitro activity data are available for this impurity. It serves as a reference standard to ensure the purity of ticagrelor drug substance, rather than as a pharmacologically active compound. The (1R,2S) cyclopropylamine stereochemistry and the 3,4‑difluorophenyl group are important for the activity of ticagrelor and related compounds.
|
| ln Vivo |
The compound is not used in vivo for therapeutic purposes. As a process‑related impurity, it may be present at trace levels in ticagrelor drug substance and product, but it is not administered as an active agent. Its role is solely in pharmaceutical quality control.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Non‑cell‑based experiments for this compound are analytical. A typical HPLC method for impurity profiling uses a C18 reverse‑phase column (4.6 × 250 mm, 5 um) with a mobile phase of acetonitrile and 0.1% phosphoric acid in water (gradient elution 30→80% acetonitrile over 20 min) at 1.0 mL/min, with UV detection at 254 nm. LC‑MS in positive ESI mode shows the cation [M]+ of the cyclopropylamine at m/z 170.1 and the anion can be detected in negative mode at m/z 151.0 (mandelate). The mandelate counterion also gives a characteristic ¹H NMR signature (methine proton at delta 4.9 ppm, s). The compound has a flash point of 218.5 degC (closed cup) and is stored at -20 degC, protected from light. Purity is typically ≥98% from commercial suppliers.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cell‑based assays are not applicable for this impurity. It is a reference material and is not intended for cellular evaluation. Any cell‑based studies would be performed on the parent drug ticagrelor, not on its impurities. Ticagrelor is tested for P2Y12 antagonism using washed human platelets or CHO cells expressing the human P2Y12 receptor, measuring ADP‑induced platelet aggregation or calcium flux. This impurity is not tested.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal experiments are not conducted for this impurity. For the parent drug ticagrelor, a standard protocol in a rat model of arterial thrombosis involves oral administration of ticagrelor (10-30 mg/kg) followed by ferric chloride‑induced injury of the carotid artery, and measurement of time to occlusion. Ticagrelor significantly prolongs occlusion time. This impurity is not administered in animals.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic data are not applicable for this impurity. If present in a formulation, it would be at trace levels only. Based on its structure (molecular weight 321.32, cation log P ~1.5-2.0), the cyclopropylamine portion is moderately lipophilic, while the mandelate anion is polar. The compound is a solid at room temperature and is stored at -20 degC, protected from light.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
The toxicity profile of this compound has not been characterized. GHS hazard classification: H315 (Causes skin irritation), H319 (Causes serious eye irritation). Precautionary statements: P264, P280, P302+P352, P305+P351+P338, P321, P332+P317, P337+P317, P362+P364. The compound is an irritant and should be handled with care. Standard safety precautions apply: handle in a well‑ventilated area (fume hood) with appropriate PPE (lab coat, gloves, safety goggles).
