Description

3~ 6 Process for the production of S(-~3-/ 3-acetyl-4-t3-tert.butylalmino-
2-hydroxypropoxy~phenyl7-1,1-diethylurea and its salts.

The present invention relates to a process for the production of 5(-~3-1 3-acetyl-4-(3-tert.butylamino-2-hydroxypropoxy~phenyl7-1,1-diethylurea, or S(-~-celiprslol and its pharmaceutically tolerated salts.

According to US Patent Specification 4,034.009, the racemate of 3-L3-acetyl-4-(3-tert.butylamino-2-hydroxypropoxy~phenyl7-1,1-diethylurea (celiprolol)~
with the following formula Il / 2 5 HN - C - N
\C H I, ~\C - CH3 / H
2 ~ 2 OH tert.C4Hg i~, among others, described as a substance witn ~l-adrenergic receptor 10 blocking action.

8eta-blockers ars substances with valuable pharmacological properties and are of great importance for the treatment of diseases of the heart and circulation, such as angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, cardiac dysrhythmias or 1 5 hypertensionr .

- 2 - 3L;~3~ 6 It is also known from US Patent Specification 4,03~,009 that celiprolol has a definite cardioselective ~1-blocking action, without exhibiting the cardio-depressive siu~ el fe~i~i utherwise usually observed with beta-blockers.

In the structure of the compound of Formula I, the carbon atom in the basic side chain identified with an asterisk is a center of chirality, so that celiprolol can exist in two optical antipodes.

From European Patent Speci-Fication 15418, or Nature 210:1336 ff, it is also known that with such beta-blockers as moprolol, i.e., 1-(isopropylamino)-3-(o-methoxyphenoxy~2-propanol, or propranolol, i.e., 1-isopropylamino-2-(1-naph-thyloxy)-2-propanol, the t3 recl~ptor blocking action is to be attributed primari-ly to the levorotatory enantiomer of the said compounds, whereas the dextrorotatory enantiomer has only slight, if any, ~receptor blocking activity.
Other advantageous pharmacological properties have so far not been reported in connection with the levorotatory forms of mirror-image beta-blockers.

It has now been found that the levorotatory enantiomer of celiprolol not only possesses a stronger ~1-receptor blocking action than the racemate but, surprisingly, also a definitely pronounced bronchodilating activity.

The subject of the present invention is, accordingly a process for the production of 5(-,~3-L3-acetyl-4-(3-tert.butylamino- Z-hydroxypropoxy~phe-nyl7-1,1-diethylurea, or S(-~-celiprolol, and its pharmaceutically tolerated addition salts with acids.
.~
For the production of levorotatory celiprolol having the S configuration,two methods, can be considered suitable:

a) Tn the course of racemate cleavage S(-~celiprolol can be obtained in good yields by reaction of the racemate of Formula I with an enantiomer of a chiral cleavage acid, separation of the two diastereomer salts in the mixture formed during the reaction, and reliberation of the base frorn the salt.

Suitable chiral cleavage acids which must be present for the formation of the diastereomer mixture in one of the two optically active forms are the acids usually used for such purposes, such as, for example, tartaric acid and its derivatives, mandelic acid, ~camphorsulfonic acid or quinic acid. Because of 5 the good crystallization tendency of the diastereorner salt crystallizing out preferentially each time from the reaction solution and the ready dissociabili-ty of the related diastereomer salt mixture, particularly suitable for the racemate resolution pursuant to the invention are derivatives of D- or L-tartaric acid. In this case it is advantageous to react racemic celiprolol with 10 respectively an enantiomer of di-0,0'-p-toluoyl-tartaric acid or di-O,û'-benz-oyl-tartaric acid in the form of their hydrogen tartrates. Particularly prefer-red for the resolution of racemates is the use of (+)-di-0,0'-benzoyl-D-tartaricacid or (+)-di-û,O'-~toluoyl-D-tartaric acid. Reaction with (+)-di-0,0'-benzoyl-D-tartaric acld is most particularly preferred.

The most expedient way to carry out the procedure is to react the racemic celiprolol in the form of the free base in a suitable solvent with the cleavaga acid and, as applicable, gently warm the reaction mixture for example to a temperature up to 50C, preferably up to about 3nc, until a clear, residue-20 free solution is obtained. Resolution of the racemate then occurs throughfractional crystallization and recrystallization of one of the diastereomer salts and separation of the latter from the mother liquor,whereby, depending on the kind of cleavage acid used and the solvent, the addition salt of either S(-~celiprolol or of R(+)-celiprolol can be preferentially crystallized out of the 25 solution with the enantiomers of the cleavage acid and separated from the diastereomers remaining in the mother liquor.

Suitable solvents for the reaction with the cleavage acid and for the racemate resolution are polar solvents such as water, alcohols, ketones, for example 30 acetone, acetonitrile or mixtures of these solvents with water, as well as chloroform or ethyl acetate. Preferred solvents are aliphatic alcohols of low molecular weight, particular preference being given to the use of methanol or ethanol or their mixtures with water.

~, .

4 ~L2;~ 6 Fractional crystallization is advantageously initiated by slow cooling of the reaction solution to temperatllrt;s below room temperature to -10C and/or the addition of a seed crystal and completed by allowing the mixture to stand in the cold for several hours or several days.
In a particularly favorable embodiment o~ the process, racemate resolution is effected in such a way that during the fractional crystallization the one of thetwo diastereomer salts which contains S(-~celiprolol as base is preferably crystallized out of the solution and separated.This can be expediently accomp-10 lished by reacting the racemate, for example, with (+)-di-0,0'-p-toluoyl-D-tartaric acid or (+)-di-0,0'-benzoyl-D-tartaric acid as the cleavage agent in methanol. Upon cooling to temperatures below room temperature, S-celi-prolol-di-0,0'-p-toluoyl-D-tartrate or S-celiprolol-di-0,0'-benzoyl-D-tartrate thereby precipitates almost quantitatively in large-size crystals and can be 15 easily separated in the usual manner from the diastereomer salt of the (R~
celiprolol remaining in the mother liquor, as by filtration, centrifugation or decantation and recrystallized until a constant melting point and constant optical rotation are reached. The levorotatory celiprolol base with the S
configuration is again released from these salts, with recovery of the cleavage 20 acid, by adding basic substances for example sodium or potassium hydroxide, and can then be converted, if desired, to a pharmaceutically tolerated adclitionsalt by treatment with acids, for example with mineral acids, such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid or phosphoric acid.

25 Addition salts of S~-)-celiprolol with mineral acids can also be obtainl-d in a most particularly preferred manner without liberation of the base by reacting the addition salts obtained following the racemate resolution from S(-)-celiprolol and the cleavage acid, for example S(-~celiprolol-di-p-toluoyl-D-hydrogen tartrate or S(-)Lceliprolol-dibenzoyl-D-hydrogen tartrate, directly 30 with the desired mineral acid,for example hydrochloric acid, in a suitable solvent in which the liberated organic cleavage acid is readily soluble, while the corresponding salt of S(-)-celiprolol is sparingly soluble and precipitates.Suitable solvents for this purpose are, for example, ketones such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, acetonitrile, chloroform or ethyl acetate, the use of 35 acetone being most especially preferred.

Isolation of S(-)-celiprolol is also possible, however, when the one of the two diastereomer salts which contains R(+~celiprolol as base is precipitated during fractional crystallization and separated by using a sui,a'vle cleavcige acid. Inthat case, the levorotatory celiprolol base with the S configuration in the 5 mother liquor is again released from the addition salt prepared for th racemate resolution, with recovery of the cleavage acid, and then obtained in pure form, for example by extraction and recrystallization. In carrying out the processJ one can proceed, for example, in such a way that the organic cleavage acid is liberated from the diastereomer salt obtained in the mother liquor 10 following racemate resolution by treatment with mineral acids such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid or phosphoric acid and extracted from the reaction mixture. From the mineral salt o-f the S(-)-celiprolol thus formed, the basic S(-~celiprolol can in turn be released by the action of strong bases, such as, for example, sodium hydroxide solution, and 15 extracted in an organic phase. If desired, the free base can then be converted into a pharmaceutically tolerated acid addition salt.

But S(-~celiprolol can also be obtained oy b) reacting 5(+)-3-/~-acetyl-4-(2,~-epoxy-propoxy)-phenyl7-1,1-diethylurea 20 having the formula C H

`~ C CH~ 11 2 ~ o ~ 2 with tert.butylamine in the presence of water.

- 6 ~ 3~ L6 Such reactions of similar enantiomorphic epoxides with amines, during which the corresponding optically active alkanolamines form with preservation of the configuration at the chi~ality cenier are known from the literaturè, e.g.
W.L.Nelson, J.E. Wennerstrom and S.R. Sankar: J. Org. Chem, Vol. 42, No. 6, pp. 1006-1012, 1977.

Tn carrying out the reaction it is expedient to proceed in such a way as to takefirst the tert. butylamine mixing it with water, slowly introduce the epoxide ofFormula II with the S configuration and then react the two at ambient 1 0 temperature or with gentle heating up to 40C, preferably to 30C as a maximum. The levorotatory enantiomer of celiprolol thus obtained can then, in turn, be converted into a pharmaceutically tolerated addition salt by treat-ment with acids. The product obtained in this conversion is identical in terms of chemical and physical properties to the S(-~-celiprolol prepared by racemate 1 5 resolution. In particular, with the two production methods described above, products are obtained which exhibit the same angle of rotation, an identical curve pattern in the CD spectrum and identical NMR spectra, with or without displacement reagents.

Of the enantionnorphic 5(+~-3-L3-acetyl-4-(2,3-epoxy-propoxy~-phenyl7-1,1-di-ethylurea of Formula 11 used as the starting material, only the racematein US
Patent Specification 4,034,009 has been described. The dextrorotatory form of
3-/~-acetyl-4-(2,3-epoxy-propoxy)-phenyl7-1,1-diethylurea with the S configu-ration required for the production of S(-~celiprolol is readily accessible, for example, from the reaction sequence described by W.L. Nelson, J.E. Wenner-strom and S.R. Sankar in J. Org. Chem., Vol.42, No., 6,pp. 1006-1012, 1977, of 5(-~-2,2-dimethyl-4-(p-tosyloxy-methyl)-1,3-dioxolane and 3-(3-acetyl-4-hydr-oxy-phenyl~1,1-diethylurea, or according to the method indicated by G. Zol~
in Drug Res. 33:2 (1983) by the reaction of 3-(3-acetyl-4-hydroxy-phenyl~-1,1-diethylurea with R(-~epichlorohydrin. The angle of rotation of 5(+~-3-/ 3-acetyl-4-(2,3~epoxy-propoxy)-phenyl7-1,1-diethylurea was determined and found to be / alpha75829: + 12.6 (c = 2.8 in acetone).

The designations R (rectum) and S (sinister~ used to designate the abolu~e configuration in this description and patent claims are based on the article in Experientia, Vol 12, pp. 81-94 (1956).

7 ~1 23~ L6 The pharmacological study of the compound pursuant to the invention shows that S(-)-celiprolol, in addition to the pronounced cardioselective ~l-receptor blocking action, surpricin~y Ql`SO possesses a definite and sustained broncho-dilating action. This bronchodilator effect can be demonstrated, for example~
5 in animal experiments using anesth0tized cats whose bronchial ton~ has been - increased by a continuous intravenous infusion of serotonin.

This finding is surprising and unexpected because it is known that beta-blockers generally lead to an increase in airways resistance and are therefore 10 contraindicated in patients suffering from bronchial asthma or other obstructi-ve pulmonary disease.

In the case of celiprolol, however, the levorotatory form with the S configura-tion induces a definite and sustained bronchodilating action, whereas with the 15 administration of the dextrorotatory form with the R configuration in experi-mental animals there is an initial short-lived bronchodilation after which the bronchial tone again increases to the baseline value and in approximately one fourth of the cases studied an appreciable bronchoconstricting action even occurs .
On the basis of these surprising pharmacological properties, S(-~-celiprolol canbe therapeutically used for the treatment of diseases of the heart and circulation without risk, particularly in patients in whom the administration ofbeta-blockers was hitherto contraindicated because of obstructive pulmonary 25 disease, especially for the treatment of hypertension, angina pectoris, tachy-cardiac dysrhythmia of the heart and similar conditions which can be explained by an undesirably hiyh circulatory stress due to endooenous catecholamines.

The subject of the invention also includes pharmaceutical formulations which 30 contain S(-~celiprolol or its pharmaceutically tolerated salts as the active substance, in combination with pharmacologically acceptable binding agents, vehicles andlor adjuvants. The pharmaceutical formulations pursuant to the invention can, as customary with beta-blockers, be administered to patients by the oral or by the parenteral route.

~36~ 6 For the treatment of heart and circulatory diseases by administering S(-~
celiprolol or its pharmaceutically tolerated acid addition salts to rnammals suffering from such diseases, these compounds were given in doses usual for the administration of ~blockers, for example in daily doses of 0,5 - 3 mg/kg depending upon the method of administration. Particularly favorable is the treatment of such patients, who suffer not orly from heart and circulatory diseases but also from obstructive pulmonary disease.

The following examples further serve to illustrate the invention, namely the 1 O methods described above for the production of 5(-~celiprolol.

3. The process as claimed in claim 1, in which (+)-di-0,0'-p-toluoyl-D-tartaric acid or (+)-di-0,0'-benzoyl-D-tartaric acid are used as the cleavage acid and the S-celiprolol-salt of said cleavage acids is precipitated during fractional crystallization and is separated from the mother liquor.
4. The process as claimed in claim 1, in which the polar solvent used for the reaction of Celiprolol with the cleavage acid and the solvent used for the fractional crystallization of one of the two diastomer salts formed are selected from the group consisting of methanol, ethanol and a mixture of one of these alcohols with water.
5. The process as claimed in claim 1 for forming pharmaceutically tolerated addition salts of S-celiprolol with mineral acids in which the diastereomer salt of S(-)-celiprolol obtained by the racemat resolution is reacted directly with the mineral acid, whereby a solvent is used, in which the liberated cleavage acid is readily soluble and the theraby formed salt of S(-)-celiprolol with the mineral acid is sparingly soluble and precipitates.
6. The process as claimed in claim 5, in which the mineral acid is hydrochloric acid and the reaction is carried out in acetone.
7. S(-)-3-[3-acetyl-4-(3-tert.butylamino-2-hydroxy-propoxy)phenyl]-1,1-diethylurea and its pharmaceutically tolerated acid addition salts with acids whenever prepared by a process as claimed in claim 1 or an obvious equivalent thereof.
8. S(-)-3-[3-acetyl-4-(3-tert.butylamino-2-hydroxy-propoxy)-phenyl]-1,1-diethylurea-hydrochloride, whenever prepared by a process as claimed in claim 2 or an obvious equivalent thereof.
