Abstract

TITLE OF THE INVENTION
"A PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF 1-(4-ISOPROPYLMERCAPTO-PHENYL)-2-n.OCTYLAMINOPROPANOL"

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE
A process for the preparation of 1-(4-isopropyl-mercapto-phenyl)-2-n.octylaminopropanol comprising the reduction of 1-(4-isopropylmercapto-phenyl)-1-(trimethyl-silyloxi)-2-n.octylamino-propene (II) and the acid hydrolysis of the re-duction mixture.

Description

2~ 10 The invention relates to a new process for preparing 1-(4-isopropylmercapto-phenyl)-2-n.oc-tyl~minopropanol of the formula I

C~-CH-NH-n.C8~17 which is a compound endowed with interesting therapeutic pro~
perties (it is ~n~wn as "Suloctidil"). In the pr~ art, the compound (I) i9 prepared from 4-isopropylmercapto-propiopheno ne, usually through the corresponding bromoketone, which i9 reacted with nOoctylamine, the 80 obtained 1~(4-i~opropyl-mercapto-phenyl)-2-n.octylamino-propanone-1 being then reducec to the end product (I).
~ ho preparation of the intermediate bromoketone presents some disadvantages due, on one side~ to the simultaneous for mation (even though to a small extent) of other bromoderivati~
~0.8, on the other to the fact that bromoketone i~ an aggressi ve compound and~ as all the compounds o~ this kînd~ it is a strong allergenic agent~ ~he following reaction with n.octyla mine and the final reductio~ ~re characterized by poor yields , i41(~

both if the intermediate octyl~minoketone is isolated and, and even worse, if the two stages are per*ormed in direct suc cession.
The other methods described for the preparation of the com-pound (I) lack of practical intere~t, eitherfor the tri~ling yields of the corresponding reactionsJ or for the excessive cost of the involved reagents.
I It has now been found that it is possible to obtain the ¦ compound (I) with very good yields and without using toxic or expensive intermediates if 1-(4-i~opropylmercapto-phenyl)-1-(trimeth~l-silyloxy)-2-n.octylamino-propene (II) is reduced and the so obtained reaction mixture iæ direetly hydrolysed in acid medium, according to the scheme:

The prooes~ of this invention will be explained by the fol-lowing example~ relatsd to the pre~err~d embodiment, i.e.
without i801ating the intermediate~

1~13Ç6~10 ~ - 5 -EXAMPLE
To a solution of 120 gr (1 1 moles) of trimethylsilylchlo-rlde and 95 gr (1.1 moles) of triethylamine in 750 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide, 208 gr (1 mole) of 4-isopropylmercapto propiophenone are added. ~he mixture i8 refluxed for 36 hours then about 500 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide are distilled under vacuum and the residue is treated with 2 liters of hexane; the solution i6 washed with two portions of 1200 ml of an aqueous N~C03-saturated solution, then (rapidly and in the cool) with 1 liter of 1.5-molar Hl, then again with 1 ; liter o~ NaH~03-saturated 601ution. ~he organic layer is eva-porated to dryness and the residue is dissolved in 800 ml of CHC13.
~o the chloroformic solution, 90 ml of pyridine and 130 gr (1 mole) of N-chlorosuccinimide ~re added. ~he mixture is stirred at room temperature for 24 hours; th~ the 80 o~tained solution of 1-(4-isopropylmer¢apto-phenyl)-1-(trimethylsilyl oxy-methyl)-2-chloropropene (V) is treated with a solution of 130 gr (1 mole~ of n.octylamine and 86 gr (1 mole) of trieth~
; ~20 lamine i~ 400 ml of CHC13. ~he mixture is stirred at 40C for
3 hours; the precipitated salts are filtered off and the sol-vent is evaporated under vaouum.
~he re~idue (which is a thiek reddish oil) is dissolved in 700 ml of methanol, then treated under stirring with a solu-~- ~
~ tion of 30 gr of NaEH4 in 2QO ml of 5-normal aqueous NaOH;

during this reaction the temperature is maintained at 20-30C.
After the addition, stirring is continued for 30 minutes, then 10% HCl is added until pH 1-2. The mixture is stirred for 2 hours, the so formed 1-(4-isopropyl-mercapto-phenyl)-2-n.octylaminopropanol hydrochloride is filtered by suction and washed with diisopropylether.
After drying 224 gr of said hydrochloride are obtained, by treating with Na2OC3-solution the corresponding base (I) is formed (198 gr), m.p. 64-65C; the compound is sub-stantially unitary in thin layer chromatrography.
