Definitions

  • the invention relates to a new approach to synthesis of Maraviroc, a compound with the chemical name A/- ⁇ (1S)-3-[3-(3-isopropyl-5-methyl-4H-1 ,2,4-triazol-4-yl)-exo-8- azabicyclo-[3.2.1 ]oct-8-yl]-1 -phenylpropyl ⁇ -4,4-difluorocyclohexanecarboxamide and the structure of formula I, as well as to improved isolation and purification of the final product.
  • Maraviroc (also known as UK-427,857) is a selective reversible non-competitive CCR5 receptor antagonist and it is used in the treatment of retroviral diseases, in particular it has found its therapeutic application in the treatment of HIV, a retroviral infection genetically related to HIV, AIDS, or inflammatory diseases. Its effect is based on preventing the virus from entering the cell.
  • Maraviroc and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts or solvates were first described in patent application WO0190106 by Pfizer.
  • Medicinal synthesis of Maraviroc described in patent application WO0190106, is shown in Scheme 1.
  • the first step consists in the Robinson synthesis of the tropane core of formula II.
  • the oxime of formula III is prepared and its subsequent reduction with sodium in penthanol under reflux leads to selective formation of the primary exo-amine of formula IV.
  • a substituted 1 ,2,4-triazole cycle is built in two steps in the molecule of formula IV and, after deprotection of the benzyl group under transfer-hydrogenolysis conditions, the tropane triazole adduct of formula VII is prepared.
  • Reductive amination of the aldehyde of formula VIII and subsequent deprotection of the ieri-butyloxycarbonyl group of the product under acidic catalysis conditions leads to formation of the amine of formula IX.
  • the last step is acylation of the amine of formula IX with 4,4-difluorocyclohexylcarboxylic acid of formula X in the presence of a carbodiimide polymer.
  • the chiral aldehyde of formula VIII was prepared from W-ferf-butyloxycarbonyl methyl ester of 1-amino-1-phenylpropionic acid of formula XII (Scheme 2) by hydride reduction under cryogenic conditions necessary to prevent over-reduction of the ester of formula XII to an alcohol.
  • Scheme 2 Preparation of the aldehyde of formula VIII
  • Alcohols represent very cheap and available starting materials; however, they are non-reactive (low electrophilicity of simple alcohols) with regard to their use as an alkylation agent. Therefore, their activation or transformation to more reactive intermediates such as alkyl sulfonates (mesylate, tosylate) or alkyl halides is usually necessary, the latter, however, representing a problem from the point of view of toxicity (many alkyl halides belong to genotoxic alkylation agents). Another problem is control of the selectivity of monoalkylation.
  • the invention provides a new efficient process for the preparation of Maraviroc by reaction of the tropane triazole of formula VII with the (S)-amido alcohol of formula XVII, catalyzed by a transition metal complex, or using the catalytic system of a transition metal complex and an additive.
  • the new process for the synthesis of Maraviroc is illustrated in Scheme 5 below.
  • the invention further includes a method of isolation of Maraviroc from the reaction mixture.
  • Table 1 summarizes examples of carrying out direct alkylation of the tropane triazole of formula VII with the (S)-amido alcohol of formula XVII.
  • Table 1 summarizes examples of carrying out direct alkylation of the tropane triazole of formula VII with the (S)-amido alcohol of formula XVII.
  • a side product of the reaction is water and therefore the benefit of the addition of 3A molecular sieves as a desiccant in the reaction was tested (Example 4), which brought an increase of the product yield to 54%.
  • Example 4 When other catalytic systems based on rhodium or ruthenium were used (Examples 5 to 7; inspired by J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2009, 131 , 1766), product formation in very low yields (1.5 to 6%) was only observed.
  • the catalyst was added in three portions 2.5 mol% each in the time intervals of 5h (second portion) and 24h (third portion) after addition of the first portion.
  • the alkylation of the amine of formula XX proceeded with 100% conversion even at more moderate conditions (110°C, 18h) and with use of a lower amount of the catalyst (2.1 mol% [Cp * lrCI 2 ]2).
  • the alkylation product of formula XXI was isolated by crystallization from the reaction mixture in the yield of 83% and purity of 97.5% (determined by UPLC). Subsequently, formation of the triazole (via imidoyl chloride, followed by reaction with acetic acid hydrazide and acid catalyzed cyclization according to the procedure published in Org. Process Res.
  • cuprous iodide increased the conversion, but besides Maraviroc increased formation of side products was also observed (not identified, referred to as the sum of impurities in the table).
  • a transition metal is used as the catalyst, preferably an iridium complex, advantageously dichloro(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)iridium(lll) dimer or diiodo(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)iridium ⁇ lll) dimer, in an amount of 0.1 to 4 mol%, preferably 2.5 mol%.
  • an ion pair is used as an additive, wherein the cation is selected from the group of alkali metals or transition metals.
  • the cation can be conveniently selected from the group of alkali metals.
  • the sodium cation is an advantageous cation.
  • the anion of the above-mentioned ion pair is selected from the group of halogens or sulfonates. Conveniently, the anion is selected from the group of halides.
  • the iodide anion is a convenient anion. Conveniently, sodium iodide is used as the ion pair.
  • the additive is used in an amount of 0.1 to 10 mol%, advantageously 5 mol%.
  • the proportion of the catalyst (transition metal complex) and additive is 1:1 to 1:3, conveniently a 1 :2 proportion of the catalyst and additive is selected.
  • a desiccant (with regard to the amine of formula VII) are added to the reaction, molecular sieves in the powder form with the particle size of 3A being conveniently used.
  • the proportion of the alcohol of formula XVII and amine of formula VII is 1:1 to 1:1.3; conveniently, a 1 :1.2 proportion of the alcohol of formula XVII and amine of formula VII is selected.
  • the reaction is carried out in an organic, high-boiling, non-polar solvent, toluene being conveniently used as the solvent.
  • the reaction is carried out at a temperature higher than 100°C; the temperature of the reaction advantageously being 100 to 130°C.
  • This invention also includes isolation of the product Maraviroc I from the reaction mixture and its purification.
  • a purification procedure via a salt of Maraviroc with an acid has been applied.
  • the acid is selected from the group of hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulphuric acid, citric acid and tartaric acid; hydrochloric acid being the preferred option.
  • the reaction mixture containing Maraviroc having purity of 60 to 90% is, after completion of the reaction time, filtered through kieselguhr, washed with a suitable solvent and carefully poured into a glacial 1M solution of HCI. After separation the acidic aqueous base is basified by gradual addition of the base up to pH 12 and subsequently the product is extracted with a suitable organic solvent and, after concentration, a crude product is obtained with purity higher than 85%, suitable for further purification by crystallization.
  • the crystallization is conveniently carried out from a solution of a crude product with purity higher than 85% in a mixture of the organic solvents hexane and acetic acid ethyl ester, conveniently in acetic acid ethyl ester. After crystallization and drying a product in purity higher than 99% is obtained.
  • the melting points were measured on a Kofler block.
