Description
2116~6~
The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of dextrorotatory 2-(3,4-dichloro-phenyl)-4-hydroxybutylamine of the formula o~ (+) HocH2~H2~H~H2NH2 Cl The compound (I), which is described in the patent applications EP-A-0 428 434, EP-A-0 474 561, EP-A-0 515 240 and EP-A-0 559 538, is a key intermediate in the synthesis of tachykinin antagonists.
According to the above documents, the compound (I) is prepared by resolving the racemate via its D-(-)-tartrate.
It has now been found that treating racemic 3-cyano-3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)propionic acid with D-(-)-N-methylglucamine effects a second-order asymmetric conversion to give (-)-3-cyano-3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-propionic acid, which, on enantioconservative reduction with a borane, gives the compound of formula (I).
It has also been found, surprisingly, that the compound of formula (I) can be obtained from 3,4-dichlorophenylacetonitrile by reaction with an alkalimetal halogenoacetate, preferably sodium chloroacetate, resolution of the 3-cyano-3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)pro-pionic acid in situ and enantioconservative reduction as indicated above.
Thus, according to one of its features, the present invention relates to a process for the pre-paration of (+)-2-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-4-hydroxybutyl-amine of formula (I), which comprises (a) treating 3,4-dichlorophenylacetonitrile of formula (II):
-2Il-6464 Cl ~ CH2CN (II) 05 with an alkali metal halogenoacetate in liquid ammonia or in a polar aprotic solvent, in the presence of a strong base, at a temperature of -40~C to +25 C;
(b) treating the resulting racemic 3-cyano-3-t3,4-dichlorophenyl)propionic acid of formula (III):
CN
a~ ~ C ,~CH~H2-COOH (III) with D-(-)-N-methylglucamine in order to crystallize all the acid (III) in the form of the D-(-)-N-methyl-glucamine salt of the levorotatory acid;
(c) treating said salt with a strong acid; and (d) subjecting the freed (-)-3-cyano-3-(3,4-dichloro-phenyl)propionic acid of formula (IV):
CN
(-) a ~ CH-CH2-COOH (IV) to enantioconservative reduction with a borane to give the derivative (I).
More particularly, step (a) is carried out using an alkali metal halogenoacetate such as sodium or potassium chloroacetate or sodium or potassium bromo-acetate, in the presence of a strong base such as sodium amide, sodium tert-butylate or sodium ethylate.
Solvents which can be used are liquid ammonia at low -21164fi4 temperature (-40~C to -30~C) or a polar aprotic solvent which is inert under the reaction conditions, such as dimethyl sulfoxide or N,N-dimethylformamide. The cyanoacid of formula (III) thus obtained after a reac-05 tion time of 4-5 hours is isolated by treatment with water or mixtures of water with an ether, for example isopropyl ether. It can be converted to one of its salts.
Step (b) can be carried out on the isolated cyanoacid (III) or else in situ directly after step (a) in a solvent such as an alcohol, preferably ethanol.
The D-(-)-glucamine salt of (-)-3-cyano-3-(3,4-di-chlorophenyl)propionic acid crystallizes directly and can be isolated.
The levorotatory acid is freed from its salt by treatment with a strong acid, according to step (c), and isolated by extraction with an appropriate solvent such as dichloromethane, dichloroethane or 1,1,1-tri-chloroethane. The acid (IV) can be converted to one of its salts.
In step (d), theenantioconservative reductiOn with a borane such as BH3 or B2H~, optionally in the form of a complex with tetrahydrofuran or dimethyl sulfide, is carried out at room temperature in a solvent of the ether type, such as dioxane or tetra-hydrofuran. After the excess borane has been destroyed and the solvent has been evaporated off, the amino-alcohol (I) is isolated by removal of the by-products using successive treatments with an acid and then with a base, followed by extraction with an appropriate solvent such as dichloromethane, dichloroethane or 1,1,1-trichloroethane.
3-Cyano-3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)propionic acid (III) is prepared by reacting sodium chloroacetate with 3,4-dichlorophenylacetonitrile (II), for example in 2136g6~
liquid ammonia in the presence of sodium amide accor-ding to the technique of A.G. CHIGAREV and D.V. IOFFE, Zh. Org. Khim. 3, 85-8 (1967), or in the presence of another very strong base such as sodium or potassium 05 tert-butylate in liquid ammonia at -33~C or in anhy-drous dimethyl sulfoxide at room temperature. The yield of 3-cyano-3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)propionic acid isolated is 74 to 78%, but it is even better if the product is not isolated, because it suffices to react it with D-(-)-N-methylglucamine, an inexpensive indus-trial product obtained from D-glucose and methylamine (KARRER, HERKENRATH - Helv. Chim. Acta, 20, 37 (1937)), in order to crystallize all the racemic cyanoacid (III) in the form of the salt of the levorotatory acid. The yield is excellent, being 190% based on the levorota-tory enantiomer contained in the racemate (III). The crystallization solvent can be methanol, ethanol, Cellosolve~ or any other suitable solvent. The reso-lution temperature is between the boiling point of the solvent and 0~C. The N-methylglucamine must be present in at least the stoichiometric amount. It is pre-ferably used in slight excess.
After the 3-cyano-3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)pro-pionic acid has been freed from its D-(-)-N-methyl-glucamine salt by reaction with a strong acid such as hydrochloric acid, oxalic acid or an ion exchange resin of the sulfonic acid type, it is reduced in an enantio-conservative manner (enantiomeric purity: 99%) with borane.
The yield of this double reduction is at least 70%.
The borane can be used in the form of its dimer, B2H~, but is preferably used in a more manipula-ble form such as the complex form with tetrahydrofuran or dimethyl sulfide, the latter complex being marketed - ~1646g as BMS.
~ 3 \ S / 3 The second-order asymmetric conversion according to step (b) of the process of the present invention is surprising and constitutes a further subject of the present invention, which thus relates, according to another of its features, to a process for the prepara-tion of (-)-3-cyano-3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)propionic acid, which comprises treating racemic 3-cyano-3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)propionic acid with D-(-)-N-methyl-glucamine and treating the resulting D-(-)-N-methyl-glucamine salt of (-)-3-cyano-3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-propionic acid with a strong acid.
3-Cyano-3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)propionic acid (III) and its salts, and its (-) isomer of formula (IV) and its salts, are novel products and represent a further feature of the present invention.
More particularly, the D-(-)-N-methylglucamine salt of (-)-3-cyano-3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)propionic acid constitutes another feature of the present inven-tion.

The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of dextrorotatory 2-(3,4-dichloro-phenyl)-4-hydroxybutylamine of the formula o~ (+) HocH2~H2~H~H2NH2 Cl The compound (I), which is described in the patent applications EP-A-0 428 434, EP-A-0 474 561, EP-A-0 515 240 and EP-A-0 559 538, is a key intermediate in the synthesis of tachykinin antagonists.
According to the above documents, the compound (I) is prepared by resolving the racemate via its D-(-)-tartrate.

The levorotatory acid is freed from its salt by treatment with a strong acid, according to step (c), and isolated by extraction with an appropriate solvent such as dichloromethane, dichloroethane or 1,1,1-tri-chloroethane. The acid (IV) can be converted to one of its salts.
In step (d), theenantioconservative reductiOn with a borane such as BH3 or B2H~, optionally in the form of a complex with tetrahydrofuran or dimethyl sulfide, is carried out at room temperature in a solvent of the ether type, such as dioxane or tetra-hydrofuran.

The yield is excellent, being 190% based on the levorota-tory enantiomer contained in the racemate (III). The crystallization solvent can be methanol, ethanol, Cellosolve~ or any other suitable solvent. The reso-lution temperature is between the boiling point of the solvent and 0~C. The N-methylglucamine must be present in at least the stoichiometric amount. It is pre-ferably used in slight excess.
After the 3-cyano-3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)pro-pionic acid has been freed from its D-(-)-N-methyl-glucamine salt by reaction with a strong acid such as hydrochloric acid, oxalic acid or an ion exchange resin of the sulfonic acid type, it is reduced in an enantio-conservative manner (enantiomeric purity: 99%) with borane.
The yield of this double reduction is at least 70%.
The borane can be used in the form of its dimer, B2H~, but is preferably used in a more manipula-ble form such as the complex form with tetrahydrofuran or dimethyl sulfide, the latter complex being marketed - ~1646g as BMS.
