Definitions

  • This invention relates to a process for preparing 2(4-fluorophenyl) ⁇ -methyl-5-benzoxazole acetic acid.
  • (+)-2(4-fluorophenyl) ⁇ -methyl-5-benzoxazole acetic acid is known for example from British patent 1,495,488 and Italian patent 22454 A/82.
  • stage A 4-hydroxy-3-aminophenylacetic acid (II) is reacted with 4-fluorobenzoyl chloride (III) to produce 3(4-fluoro)-benzamido-4-hydroxyphenylacetic acid (IV).
  • the reaction is conducted in a reaction medium constituted by a 2%-5% aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution operating at a temperature of between 0° and 30°C, for a time of between 3 and 6 hours.
  • the product (IV) is obtained with a yield of about 95%.
  • stage B in which the heterocyclic ring is formed, the product (IV) is treated with a 70-80 weight % phosphoric acid solution at a temperature of 120°-125°C for a time of between 30 minutes and 1 hour.
  • the product (V) is obtained with a yield of between 90% and 95%.
  • stage C) the product (V) is esterified by treatment with ethyl alcohol in the presence of H2SO4, by heating under reflux for some hours to obtain ethyl (4-fluorophenyl)5-benzoxazole acetate (VI) with a yield of 80%-85%.
  • stage D) the ester (VI) is reacted with diethyloxalate in the presence of sodium methylate in a reaction medium constituted by an ether or an hydrocarbon solvent.
  • a reaction medium constituted by an ether or an hydrocarbon solvent.
  • the mixture is heated to boiling under reflux for 20-30 hours and is then cooled and neutralised with a 5% H2SO4 solution.
  • the organic phase is washed with a saturated NaCl solution and then with H2O and dried by treatment with Na2SO4, after which it is concentrated to a small volume to obtain ethyl 2(4-fluorophenyl)-5-benzoxazole oxalacetate (VII) with a yield of between 90% and 95%.
  • stage E the product (VII) is treated with formaldehyde in an aqueous K2CO3 solution at ambient temperature under agitation, for a time of 4-6 hours.
  • Ethyl 2(4-fluorophenyl)5-benzoxazole acrylate (VIII) is thus obtained, with a yield exceeding 95%.
  • stage F the ester (VIII) is hydrolysed to obtain the corresponding acid by firstly treating it in a tetrahydrofuran solution with a KOH solution at ambient temperature for 20-30 hours and then acidifying with a solution of HCl in t-butylmethylether.
  • stage G the product (IX) is hydrogenated under atmospheric pressure at a temperature of 25°-40°C, using 5% Pd-on-carbon as catalyst in a reaction medium constituted by ethyl alcohol.
  • the catalyst is separated by filtration in a nitrogen environment, and the aqueous solution is used for the reaction with 4-fluorobenzoyl chloride, which is carried out in the following manner: the aqueous solution is cooled to 5°C in a nitrogen environment, 460 ml of t-butylmethylether are added, and then 74 ml of 4-fluorobenzoyl chloride dissolved in 170 ml of t-butylmethylether are fed slowly.
  • the mixture is agitated vigorously for 6 hours at ambient temperature, after which it is filtered to recover the product. A further small quantity of product is recovered from the mother liquors by evaporating the solvent.
  • 127 g of finely ground 3(4-fluoro)benzamido-4-phenylacetic acid are added to 1 litre of a 75 weight % phosphoric acid solution heated to 130°C and under agitation. The heating is continued to 125°C for 30 minutes to obtain complete dissolving, after which the solution is cooled to 50°C and water is slowly added until the product crystallises. Further water is added to form a total quantity of 3 litres, and agitation is continued for 2 hours. The mixture is filtered, the solid is pulped in distilled water, refiltered and dried.
  • the resultant mixture is heated to boiling under reflux for 24 hours, and is then cooled and neutralised with 5% sulphuric acid.
  • the organic phase is washed firstly with a saturated sodium chloride solution and then with water, and is finally dried by treatment with sodium sulphate.
  • the mixture is agitated for 5 hours at ambient temperature and is then extracted with t-butylmethylether.
  • the solution is partly evaporated under vacuum at 40°C, cooled to ambient temperature, 500 ml of t-butylmethylether are added, and the mixture acidified with dilute (1:10) HCl to pH 2.
  • the ether phase is separated, and the aqueous phase is extracted twice with ether.
  • the pooled ether solution is dried and evaporated.
  • the catalyst is separated by filtration, and the solution is concentrated to a small volume.
