Zusammenfassung:A process for the preparation of high purity tofacitinib, which reduces formation of N-methyl impurity is provided. Novel intermediates used in the process to prepare tofacitinib is also provided. A process for the preparation of tofacitinib (I), comprising the steps of: adding cyanoacetic acid in molar equivalent 0.2-1.2 to compound of formula (IIS), followed by addition of carbodiimide coupling agent of formula (III), optionally reacting tofacitinib base with citric acid is further provided.
