Novel synthetic analogs of Sildenafil are constantly detected as adulterants in counterfeit drugs and dietary supplements. Their intake constitutes a serious health hazard as side effects are unknown. In this paper an investigation is carried out on NMR and MS/MS spectra of Sildenafil, Thiosildenafil, Acetildenafil and thirteen of their analogs: a list of key signals is reported and discussed with the intent to provide a tool that can help in detecting adulteration and in elucidating the structure of novel analogs. In this view extensive spectral data were reported, discussed and summarized in tables. A discussion on mass fragmentation and NMR chemical shifts is also provided to rationalize assignation. Moreover, a comprehensive information on the route of synthesis is provided for the benefit of those medicines control laboratories that need to synthesize analogs reference standards in-house. © 2014 Elsevier B.V.

Abstract
Novel synthetic analogs of Sildenafil are constantly detected as adulterants in counterfeit drugs and dietary supplements. Their intake constitutes a serious health hazard as side effects are unknown. In this paper an investigation is carried out on NMR and MS/MS spectra of Sildenafil, Thiosildenafil, Acetildenafil and thirteen of their analogs: a list of key signals is reported and discussed with the intent to provide a tool that can help in detecting adulteration and in elucidating the structure of novel analogs. In this view extensive spectral data were reported, discussed and summarized in tables. A discussion on mass fragmentation and NMR chemical shifts is also provided to rationalize assignation. Moreover, a comprehensive information on the route of synthesis is provided for the benefit of those medicines control laboratories that need to synthesize analogs reference standards in-house. © 2014 Elsevier B.V.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
