It comprises a process for the preparation of sitagliptin, or its pharmaceutically acceptable salts, or its solvates, including hydrates, comprising: a) coupling an halo-2,4,5-trifluorobenzene with a compound of formula (IV) to give N-protected sitagliptin; the coupling being carried out via the formation of an organocupric compound of the halo-2,4,5-trifluorobenzene or, alternatively, via the formation of a organozinc compound of a compound of formula (IV); where R1 is hydrogen or an amino protective group; R2 is an amino protective group; or alternatively R1 and R2 taken together form a phtalimido group; X is Br or I; and Y is Br, I or R3SO3- wherein R3 is (C1-C4)- alkyl, phenyl, or phenyl mono- or disubstituted by a (C1-C4)-alkyl radical; b) submitting the N-protected sitagliptin to a deprotection reaction; and c) optionally its conversion into a pharmaceutically acceptable salt. It also comprises new intermediate compounds useful in such preparation process.
