Tc~cll~lic~l Probl~m J

There was a need tor a simple and industrially suitable process t`or the synthesis ot active deri~ative that ~ould be apppropriate as starting material for the synthesis ot ACE inhibitors disclosed e.~n in Drugs ot the tuture 199~ 17(7), 551-55~. and others.

P~io~

For the preparation of ACE inhibitors two types ot processes are most trequentlvused. The tirst one i~ a reductive amination. which is di~ficult to be carried out on in-dustricll scale and is disclosed in US 4,374~29.

The second type u~es e.~. N-[1-(S)-ethoxycarbonyl-3-phenylpropyl]-L-cllanyl-I~-carh(lxy-anhvdride (~iCA; see the t`ormula (II) below) as reactant. In EP 0215335 A~

The preparation of active NCA is also described in EP 0114067, wherein a reaction of phosgene with amino acid (I) is disclosed. In EP 0061768 A1 the preparation of NCA (II) by a reaction of amino acid (I) and carbonyl diimidazole (CDI) is disclosed.
The preparation of NCA is also disclosed in ES 2004~04. The NCA (II) formed is then reacted with silylated L-proline (YU patent application 1355/~8) and with non-silylated L-proline (SI patent 9200213) to enalapril and enalapril maleate, resp., which is an interesting ACE inhibitor.

In all disclosed cases of activation of amino acid (I) there are used toxic phosgene, phosgene polymers (diphosgene, triphosgene) or phosgene derivatives such as CDI,which may be prepared by only a few phosgene producers. The use of CDI for ac-tivating amino acid (I) is expensive and it is also necessary to regenerate the waste imidazole, which may be converted again into CDI only by a phosgene producer.

Also in the synthesis of trandolapril disclosed in EP 00~341 and in US 4,490,3~6, for activating the compound (I) expensive carbonyl diimidazole CDI is used, which isconverted into the corresponding NCA (II).

The second object of the invention is a process for the preparation of novel N-sulfoxy anhydrides of the formula (lII), characterized in that a compound of the formula tIV) COOEt Rl--CH--NH CIH R2 (N) COOH

wherein Rl in R2 have the above meanings, is reacted with an ~-(chlorosulfinyl)-heterocyclic compound of the general formula (V) a~l--R4 wherein R4 represents the rest of imidazole, of alkyl imidazole, of benzimidazole and of tetrazole.

Compounds of the general formulas (IV) and (V) are commercially available or maybe prepared according to processes known from the literature.

The preparation of the compound of the general formula (V), wherein R4 is an imidazole rest, i.e. chlorosulfinyl imidazole, is disclosed e.g. in Syl~J~tetic Communica-tiOrls~ 10 (10), 733-742, 1980~ Masaru O~ata and Hiroshi Matsumato. In the reaction in dry methylene chloride hetween SOCI, and imidazole in a 1:4 ratio there are ob-tained N.N'-thionyldiimid~lzole and imidazol~ hydrochlorid~, which is filtered off. An equimolar amount of thionylehloride is added to the filtrate with N,N'-thionyl-diimidazole and two molar equivalents of N-chlorosulfinyl imidazole of the formula (V) are obtained.

AMENDED S~EET

CA 0220343~ 1997-04-22 Thr pl-eparation of the co]npound ot the general formula (V), wherein R~ is a ~enzimid.lzole rest, i.e. N-ch]orc)sulfinyl benzimidazole, is disclosed in Sy~ c~ C0~11-1iC~l/i(l~l.s 1() (7), 559-567, 1'~0, Masaru Ogata and Hiroshi Matsumato.

The reaction between the compound ot the formula (IV) and the compo~lnd ot` the ~eneral tormula (V) is carried out in dry organic solvents (humidity < ().()4G~c), preferably in chlorinated organic solvents such as methylene chloride. or non-chlorinated organic solvents such as ethyl acetate, dimethyl carbonate, diethyl car-honate. acetonitrile etc.

The reaction between the compound of the formula (IV) and the compound of the formula (V) is carried out at a temperature between -15C and +25C.

The formed hydrochloride of a heterocyclic compound, e.g. imidazole HCI, methyl-imidazole HCl, benzimidazole HCI. tetrazole HCI etc., is filtered off or sucked off.
Organic bases may be regenerated and recycled.

The pure novel compound of the formula (III) (NSA) remains in the organic solvent.
The formation of the compound NSA is confirmed by a) quantitative isolation of a heterocyclic compound corresponding to the rest R4 in the form of hydrochloride, in two reaction steps;
b) iodometric titration of the amount of SO2 formed after the hydrolysis ot NSA;c) IR spectroscopy of the solution of a sample having characteristic absorption bands at 1~20 cm~l, 1750 cm~l in 1030 cm~~;
d) NMR spectra which do not contain signals for protons of the heterocyclic compound (V) used;
e) a further reaction of NSA with silylated amino acids under ~elease of SO2.

As inorganic salts e.g. potassium or sodium salts are used.

As organic salts preferably salts ot` DBU (],~-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene), DBN
(],5-diazclbicyclo[4.3.0]non-5-ene), TEA (triethylamine), tetramethylguanidine, im-idazole, methylimidazole etc. are used.

In the CclSe ot` amino acid N-[l-(S)-~thoxycarbonyl-3-phenylpropyl]-L-cllclnine (I) after activation with N-chlorosulfinyl imidazole NSA N-[ 1 -(S)-ethoxycarl~onyl-3-phenylr)ror)yl]-L-alanyl-N-sultoxyanhydride is ohtained. which is reacted with CA 0220343~ 1997-04-22 L-proline. silylated L-proline or with an organic or inorganic salt of L-proline to ~nalapl^il.

It the ~ame NSA (III) is reacted with a mixture. a silylat~d mixture or with an organic or inorganic salt of the mixture ot 2S,3aS 7aS- and 'R,3aR,7aR-octahydl-o-]H-indole-2-carboxylic acid, there is obtained a racemic mixture ot` SSS and RRR ACE
inhibitor having the chemical name 2S,3aS,7aS- or 2R,3aR,7aR-1-{2S-[(1R-ethoxy-carbonyl-3-phenylpropyl)amino]-1-oxopropyl}octa-hydro-lH-indole-2-c~rboxylic acid. If as octahydro-lH-indole-2-carboxylic acid a pure isomer is used such as ~S,3aS,7aS or 2S,3aR.7aS, SSS or SRS trandolapril is obtained (see J. Med. Chem.~7? 30, 992--99~)-For the preparation of enalapril the novel compound ot the formula (III) (Rl meansPhCH2-CH2-, R2 means methyl), which remains in the organic solvent such as methylene chloride after sucking off the hydrochloride of heterocyclic compound such as imidazole hydrochloride and is very reactive. is reacted with silylated L-proline (process variant a) or with inorganic or organic salt of L-proline as defined above (process variant b), to N-[1-(S)-ethoxycarbonyl-3-phenylpropyl]-L-alanyl-L-proline (known as enalapril) with a high yield. During the reaction a gaseous SO2 isreleased, which also proves the existence of the novel compound NSA of formula (III). The reaction between NSA and silylated L-proline is carried out in the tem-perature range from -20C to +25C. This process is shown in Scheme 1.

In the process variant b) besides the desired ACE inhibitors also novel derivatives are formed, which in case of the preparation of trandolapril have the following for-mula VII

In the NMR spectrulll oi the compound VII the ratio I etween phenyl protol1s Illd the ploton in position ' in octahydroindole moiety is 1():1 and thereby the sLIgg~!ited structLIl-e of the compound ol the formula (Vll) is confirmed.

The use ol the compound ot the formula (III) as a starting substance makes possi~tle al1 econolllical ettective and simple industrial process t`or the preparcltion ot el1.l1clpril~ trandolapril and other ACE inhibitors especially when the process variant a) is used.

The use ot NSA is very convenient since the conden~ation reaction proceeds well al-ready at lower temperatures in the range of trom -15C to +25C. Imidazole and other ambident compounds useful in the synthesis of NSA may be isolated quantitcl-tively and recycled. The process is ecologically pure since a major part of reactants may be regenerated and recycled.

Synthetised ACE inhibitors are recrystallized from acetonitrile or are purified by re-precipitation in ethyl acetate thus achieving high yields at purification (about 94~c).

Example I

Synthesis of N-[ 1-(S)-ethoxycarbonyl-3-phenylpropyl]-L-alanyl-N-sulfoxy anhydride (NSA, wherein Rl means PhCH2-CH2- and R2 means methyl) SOCI2 (0.18 ml; 0.0025 mole) was added to anhydrous methylene chloride (7 ml;
water content according to Karl Fischer < 0.04%) and the mixture was cooled to -10C and then imidazole (0.68 g; 0.01 mole) was added. During stirring for 60 minutes the temperature gradually increased to 15C. The precipitate of imidazole hydrochloride was filtered off, washed with dry CH2CI2 (5 ml) and a dry salt of im-idazole hydrochloride (0.58 g) was obtained. The mother liquor was again cooled to -10C and thionylchloride (0.18 ml; 0.0025 mole) was added. The solution was stirred for 60 minutes at a temperature between -10C and +15C. Then N-[1-(S)-ethoxy-carbonyl-3-phenylpropyl~-L-alanine (1.25 g; 0.0045 mole) and CH~CI2 (16 ml) was added. After stirring for 65 minutes (the temperature increased from -15C to +25C), the precipitate was filtered off, washed with methylene chloride (5 ml) and a dry salt of imidazole hydrochloride (0.51 g) was obtained. After both filtrations im-idazole hydrochloride could be re~enerated and recycled. The mother liquor con-tained the novel compound N-[l-(S)-ethoxycarbonyl-3-phenylpropyl]-L-alanyl-N-sull~oxy- anhydride or NSA, which was analyzed. NSA is oily liquid, unstable in humidity and air, and has a molecular weight 325 determined by iodometric titration on the basis of the followin~ Scheme:
