The synthesis of five related substances/impurities of Eflornithine (5), formed during the preparation of Eflornithine bulk drug, is described. The products are methyl 2,5-diamino- pentanoate HCl (2), methyl 2,5-bis(benzylideneamino)pentanoate (3), 3-aminopiperidin-2-one HCl) (6), 3-amino-3-(difluoromethyl)piperidin-2-one HCl (7) and Dimer Impurity (8). The structures of these compounds were established on the basis of spectral data (IR, 1HNMR, 13CMR and MS).
