Chemical name (IUPAC): (2S)-N1-{4-Methyl-5-[2-(1,1,1-triflu ro-2-methylpropan-2-yl)pyridin-4-yl]-1,3-thiazol-2-yl}pyrrolidine-1,2-dicarboxamide.
Molecular formula: C19H22F3N5O2S.
Relative molecular mass: 441.47.
Alpelisib is a white to almost white powder at room temperature. It is sparingly soluble in methanol, acetone, and absolute ethanol; it is insoluble/practically insoluble in water, and demonstrates pH-dependent aqueous solubility. Alpelisib is most soluble at pH 1 and has two experimentally determined dissociation constants with pKa values of 3.3 and 9.4. The pH of a 1.0% (m/v) solution of alpelisib in water/ethanol (50:50 v/v) is approximately 6.2. In an n-octanol/pH 6.8 buffer system, alpelisib has a log D of 2.8. Alpelisib is optically active.
