Description

WO 99/32430 _ PCT/SE98/02315 PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF ISOPROPYL-METHYL-[2-(3-N-PROPOXYPHENOXY)ETHYL]AMINE
Field of the invention The present invention relates to a novel process for the synthesis of isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propoxyphenoxy)ethyl]amine. Moreover, the present invention also relates to a novel intermediate and an optional purification step in said process. Additionally, the present invention also relates to the manufacture of a pharmaceutical formulation containing io isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propoxyphenoxy)ethyl]amine and the use of isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propoxyphenoxy)ethyl]amine in medicine.
Background of the invention and prior art is Isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propoxyphenoxy)ethyl]amineis a compound with anaesthetic properties. It is useful as a topical local anaesthetic for the treatment of pain, including localised pain, and especially on intact skin.
WO 9715548 discloses a process for the preparation of isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propoxy zo phenoxy)ethyl]amine. Said process comprises a couple of reaction steps starting with reacting 3-n-propoxyphenol with 1,2-dibromoethane resulting in 1-(2-bromoethoxy)-3-n-propoxybenzene. Further, 1-(2-bromoethoxy)-3-n-propoxybenzene is reacted with N-methylisopropylamine in an autoclave. The product, isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propoxy phenoxy)ethyl]amine, was thereafter further purified by distillation in vacuo.
Summary of the Invention The object of the present invention is to provide a new process for the preparation of isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propoxyphenoxy)ethyl]amine suitable for full scale production.
Scheme 1 below describes the main reaction steps in the manufacture of isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propoxyphenoxy)ethyl]amine starting from 3-propoxyphenol. The starting material as well as the reactants used, are readily available through processes known in the art.

s Another object of the present invention is to provide a process utilizing reagents and solvents that are environmentally friendly. There is a general interest from environmental groups both inside and outside the pharmaceutical industry that the industry shall develop and use environmentally friendly processes. The process of the present invention does not use any mutagenic alkylating agents, such as 1,2-dibromoethane, which is used in io processes according to prior art. One object of the present invention is therefore to provide a process for the manufacture of isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propoxyphenoxy)ethyl]amine wherein the use of 1,2-dibromoethane is avoided. 1,2-dibromoethane is a known mutagenic compound and its use should therefore, if possible, be limited. This is especially true in full scale production.
Is Another object of the present invention is to provide a new and optional purification of crude isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propoxyphenoxy)ethyl]amine. We have surprisingly found that the monophosphate salt of isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propoxyphenoxy)ethyl]amine is a crystalline compound. The optional purifaction step is shown in Scheme 2.

WO 99/32430 _ PCT/SE98/02315 Scheme 2 H3POa ~x H3P04 (4) Base (5) s In Step 1, 3-propoxy-phenol is reacted with ethylene carbonate using solid-liquid phase-transfer catalysis conditions. The reaction is preferably carried out at 60-120'C and for a prolonged period of time. The reaction is preferably carried out in an organic solvent, such as an aprotic organic solvent or xylene. Examples of such aprotic organic solvents include, but are not limited to, DMF, and 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone. 1-Metyl-2-pyrrolidinone is the io preferred aprotic organic solvent. Optionally, the reaction is carried out without any additional organic solvent. The amount of ethylene carbonate used is 1-4 molar equivalents, preferably 2-3 equivalents. The solid-liquid phase-transfer catalysis conditions are created using a solid, non-soluble base and a phase-transfer catalyst. The amount of base and phase-transfer catalyst are not crucial and can therefore be varied according to is procedures known in the art. The base and the phase-transfer catalyst can be any suitable base and phase-transfer catalyst known in the art to create solid-liquid phase-transfer catalysis conditions. Examples of suitable bases include, but are not limited to, sodium carbonate, sodium hydrogencarbonate, potassium carbonate and potassium hydrogencarbonate. Potassium carbonate is the preferred base. Examples of suitable phase-zo transfer catalysts include, but are not limited to, tetrabutyl ammonium iodide, tetrabutyl ammonium hydrogensulphate, and tetrabutyl ammonium bromide. Tetrabutyl ammonium bromide is the preferred phase-transfer catalyst.
The phase-transfer catalyst used in step 1, can be replaced by a compound which has as an 2s intrinsic property to function as a phase-transfer catalysts under the conditions used in Step WO 99/32430 _ PCT/SE98/02315 1. . Examples of such compounds include, but are not limited to, polyethyleneglycol (PEG), e.g. PEG 6000.
After complete reaction, the reaction mixture is cooled, diluted with water and extracted with a suitable organic solvent, such as xylene or methyl tert-butyl ether.
The organic phase is concentrated and the crude 2-(3-propoxy-phenoxy)-ethanol is purified by means of distillation.
In step 2, the 2-(3-propoxy-phenoxy)-ethanol formed in Step 1 above, is further reacted ~o with a suitable reagent to produce a compound of formula 2, o i I o~x (2) wherein X is a bromine, chlorine, iodine or a sulphonate ester group. Examples of ~s sulphonate esters include, but are not limited to, alkane- and arylsulphonate ester, e.g.
methanesulphonate, ethanesulphonate, p-toluenesulphonate, p-bromophenylsulphonate.
Preferred compounds of formula 2 are sulphonate esters. Examples of reagents capable of producing preferred compounds of formula 2 include, but are not limited to, methanesulphonyl chloride, ethanesulphonyl chloride, p-toluenesulphonyl chloride and p-zo bromosulphonyl chloride.
In Step 3, the compound of formula 2 in an organic solvent, such as methyl tert-butyl ether or toluene, is further reacted with isopropylamine in the presence of water.
The reaction is performed at elevated temperature, preferably 60-11 (1"'C, for a prolonged period of time 2~s and under increased pressure, preferably 1-10 atmospheres. Isopropylamine should be added at an excess, such as 2 to 6 equivalents, preferably 3-4 equivalents.
Optionally an additional and non-nucleophilic base, such as potassium or sodium carbonate, can be added to the reaction mixture. The amount of water present in the reaction mixture is not crucial and can optionally be omitted. The reaction mixture is thereafter cooled and aqueous acid is added under vigorous stirring until the pH of the aqueous phase reaches a constant value of 3-5, preferably 3-3.5. The aqueous phase is separated, washed with methyl tent-butyl ether or toluene and thereafter used without any further purification in the subsequent step.
In Step 4, the acidic aqueous solution of isopropyl-[2-(3-propoxy-phenoxy}-ethyl]-amine prepared in Step 3 above, is reacted with formaldehyde in the presence of palladium on charcoal. The reaction mixture is hydrogenated at atmospheric pressure or above, such as 1-6 bars, for several hours. The amount of formaldehyde is not crucial, but can be between io 1-10 equivalents, by weight. The amount of palladium on charcoal used is 0.01 to 0.5 molar equivalents, preferably 0.05-0.2. The reaction mixture is thereafter treated with aqueous base, such as sodium hydroxide, to pH ~ 12 and extracted with methyl tent-butyl ether. The organic phase is separated and distillation gives pure isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propoxyphenoxy~thyljamine.
a Surprisingly, we have been able to crystallize isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propoxyphenoxy ethyl]amine from the reaction mixture in step 4, by converting it to the corresponding monophosphate salt. The monophosphate salt of isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propoxy-phenoxy)ethyl]amine is a crystalline and stable salt of isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-2o propoxyphenoxy)ethyl]amine and therefore has advantageous properties. The introduction of a crystalline intermediate in the process for the preparation of isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propoxyphenoxy)ethyl]amine is advantageous. It introduces a simple and convenient optional and additional purification step in a reaction sequence where all intermediates are syrups. Thereby, the time and energy consuming distillation used in processes according to 2s prior art is avoided. The crystallization of the monophosphate salt of isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propoxyphenoxy)ethyl]amine results in an intermediate of a high purity that can be further converted to the corresponding isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propoxy phenoxy)ethyl]amine by a simple alkalization step.

In the optional purification step, the content of crude isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propox~
phenoxy)ethyl]amine in ethyl acetate is first assayed and adjusted to 6-10 ml ethyl acetate per gram of crude isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propoxyphenoxy)ethyl]amine, prepared instep 4 above. The content of isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propoxyphenoxy)ethyl]amine in ethyl s acetate is preferably 7-9 ml ethyl acetate per gram of isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propox~
phenoxy)ethyl]amine. To the assayed solution of isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propoxyphenoxy)ethyi]amine, methanol and a solution of phosphoric acid in methanol are added. The amount of phosphoric acid should be around 0.9 to 1.0 molar equivalents, preferably 0.95 equivalents. The total amount of methanol added to the assayed solution to should be adjusted to the amount of phosphoric acid used. The concentration of phosphoric acid in the resulting solution of isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propoxyphenoxy)ethyl]amine in a mixture of methanol and ethyl acetate should be around 5-15%, by volume, preferably 9-11 %, by volume. The precipitated salt is collected, for example by filtration or centrifugation, and thereafter washed with ethyl acetate.
Is The monophosphate salt of isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propoxyphenoxy)ethyl]amine, prepared above, is thereafter mixed with water and aqueous sodium hydroxide is added to pH ~ 11.5. Methyl tert-butyl ether, or other suitable solvent, is added and the two phases are separated. The organic phase is washed with water and concentrated yielding pure ~o isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propoxyphenoxy)ethyl]amine.
The final distillation of crude isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propoxyphenoxy)ethyl]amine, prepared by step 4 above, may be replaced by the optional purification step,i.e. the preparation of the monophosphate salt of isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-~s propoxyphenoxy)ethyl]amine. Under those circumstances the alkaline aqueous phase containing the crude isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propoxyphenoxy)ethyl]amine will preferably be extracted with ethyl acetate instead of methyl tert-butyl ether.
The prepared monophosphate salt of isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propoxyphenoxy)ethyl]amine can thereafter be converted to the corresponding isopropyl-methyl-[2-(3-n-propox~

WO 99/32430 _ PCT/SE98/02315 phenoxy)ethyi]amine by a simple alkalization step. The mode of procedure can easily be made by a technician.
