Mastering the Supply Chain of Sacubitril Valsartan Sodium (LCZ696): From Chiral Intermediates to Finished API

lcz696 (sacubitril valsartan) manufacturer
Huzhou Ureda Pharm supplies GMP-grade LCZ696 API and critical chiral intermediates. We specialize in (2R,4S) stereochemistry control with >99.5% e.e. Our vertical integration ensures reliable supply from kg to ton scale. Full ICH quality compliance with DMF support available.

Sacubitril Valsartan Sodium (LCZ696), the first Angiotensin Receptor Neprilysin Inhibitor (ARNI), has reshaped the treatment paradigm for heart failure and hypertension. Unlike conventional therapies, LCZ696 works through a dual mechanism—combining Sacubitril (a neprilysin inhibitor) with Valsartan (an angiotensin receptor blocker) in a stable co-crystal form.

However, its complex molecular structure requires highly specialized expertise in synthesis, chiral control, and regulatory compliance. At Huzhou Ureda Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., we provide a secure, GMP-compliant, and technically advanced supply chain covering LCZ696, Sacubitril API (AHU-377), and critical chiral intermediates.

Boc-Protected intermediates (e.g. CAS 1012341-50-2) 1012341-50-2 Advanced synthetic building blocks ensuring amino protection

Technical Expertise: Chiral Synthesis & Process Mastery

The therapeutic efficacy of Sacubitril is entirely dependent on its (2R,4S) stereochemistry. Ureda Pharm employs a finely tuned synthetic route with strict stereochemical control:

  • Starting Material: N-[(1R)-2-[1,1′-Biphenyl]-4-yl-1-(hydroxymethyl)ethyl]carbamic acid tert-butyl ester (CAS: 1426129-50-1).

  • Wittig Reaction: Using Ethyl 2-(triphenylphosphoranylidene)propionate (CAS: 5717-37-3), we construct the highly selective (R,E)-olefin intermediate (CAS: 1012341-48-8).

  • Chiral Construction: Boc-protection ensures stability during multi-step synthesis, leading to Boc-protected amino acids (CAS: 1012341-50-2).

  • Deprotection & Final Steps: Yielding the pharmacophoric core (CAS: 149690-12-0), followed by synthesis into Sacubitril Sodium, AHU-377, and finally LCZ696.

🔬 Analytical Excellence: We employ chiral HPLC and advanced analytical methods to guarantee enantiomeric excess (e.e.) >99.5%, ensuring consistent efficacy and safety.
