Abstract
1376123 #<SP>11</SP>-Enolates; 12-halosteroids RESEARCH INSTITUTE FOR MEDICINE & CHEMISTRY Inc 15 Nov 1971 [17 Nov 1970] 54671/70 Heading C2U The invention comprises (A) a process for the 11,12-enolization of a 9α-halo-11-oxosteroid having at least one 12-hydrogen atom, by treating it in a polar aprotic medium with a strong base; (B) a solution of a 9α-halosteroid- 11,12-enolate in a polar aprotic solvent; and (C) 9α,12,12-trifluoro-11-oxo and -11-hydroxysteroids. Thus a 9α-halo-11-oxo-12-unsubstituted steroid is converted by process (A) to a Na, K, Li or Mg enolate (the Li enolate being obtainable either directly with Buhi, or by treating an initially obtained Na enolate with LiCl, or by treating a corresponding enol ester with a lithium base). The enolate may be converted to (i) an enol ester by reaction with an acid derivative, e.g. benzoic anhydride; or (ii) an enol silyl ether by reaction, e.g. with Me 3 SiCl; or (iii) a 9α,12-dihalo-11-oxo steroid by reaction with Cl 2 , Br 2 , ClO 3 F or FOCF 3 . The 9α,12-dihalo-11-oxo steroid may be converted to (i) the corresponding 11-ol by reaction with, e.g. NaBH 4 ; or (ii) an enolate by process (A). The enolate may be acidified to give the 12-epimer of the initial 9α,12-dihalo- 11-oxo steroid, or may be converted by methods analogous to those described above to (i) an enol ester; or (ii) an enol silyl ether; or (iii) a 9α-halo-12,12-difluoro-11-oxo steroid. The latter may be reduced to the corresponding 11-ol and any protecting groups (e.g. 3-ketal, 3-enol ether and 17,20;20,21-bismethylenedioxy) removed. In the examples the starting materials for the above conversions are protected derivatives of 9α-fluorocortisone and 9α-fluoro-16α-methylprednisone.

Description
38143/3 PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF 11 , 12-ENOLATES OF 9a-HAL0-l l -KET0- STEROIDS AND OF 9a, 12 OIHALO OR 9a, 12,12-TRIHALO 11 -KETO (OR 11 -HYDROXY) STEROIDS This invention is concerned with novel steroid enolates and processes for their preparation and their use as intermediates .
We have found that 11 , 12-enolates of 9a-halo-ll-keto-steroids can readily be prepared and, if necessary, isolated and further that these new compounds can serve as starting materials for a number of very useful synthetic procedures. The -new enolates may be prepared from the 9a-halo-ll-ketones by treatment with a strong base, in spite of the fact that they are oc-halo-ketones and would therefore be expected to undergo the Favorskii rearrangement with ring contraction or nucleophilic replacement of the halogen atom accompanied by transposition of the substituent from one side of the carbonyl group to the other.
The Tre enolates are preferably alkali metal enolates, more especially sodium, potassium or lithium enolates, or magnesium enolates, althoughany cation which is sufficiently electrophilic to form the enolate is suitable. As is explained below, the lithium and magnesium enolates are especially preferred due to their reluctance to undergo metathesis with keto groups in subsequent reactions and hence their avoidance of side-reactions and multiple products The 9cc-halo-ll-keto steroids are preferably 9a- chloro- and more preferably 9a-fluoro-steroids.
In addition to the 11-keto group, the steroid substrate may carry advantageously a 3-substituent which is convertible into a 3-keto group, for example an enol ether or ester group, a hydrazone or substituted hydrazone group, an oxime or alkoxime group, or a dialkylketal or cyclic ketal group such as a dioxolan group. Such groups can be converted into the 3-keto group, where this is required, by conventional means.
An unprotected 3-keto group may be present in conjunction with a 6-fluoro-1 ,4-diene system since the keto group does not then readily enolise.
If a 3-keto-l ,4-diene is used, a 1 , 3, 5-enolate is usually formed first but will rearrange to the 1 4 desired 11 , 12-enolate with regeneration of the Δ ' -3- keto system if the base is a sodium or potassium base and is added slowly to the steroid.
Double bonds may be present, for example at the 1, 2-, 3,4-, , 5- and/or 16 , 17-positions and alkyl groups, for example methyl groups, may be present at the 6- and/or 16-position, (in the a- or β-configuration) , or in the 10- or 13-position. Halogen atoms may be 12,-present at the 6-j or 16-position. The 17-position may carry a keto group or alternatively a hydrogen atom, a hydroxyl group or an acyloxy group together with a hydrogen atom or an aliphatic group, preferably with 1-8 carbon atoms, which may, for example, carry one or more keto and/or hydroxy or acyloxy substituents , provided that any hydroxy groups or keto groups are protected, for example as esters or ethers or as ketals, hydrazones, or dioxolans respectively. The corticoid side chain ( 17a-hydroxy-17p- hydroxyacetyl) is especially valuable and may advant¬ ageously be protected by a bis-methylene dioxide grouping or the formation of 17 , 21-diesters or orthoesters. Where esters of hydroxyl compounds are used, these are preferably derived from aliphatic acids having 1-6 carbon atoms, e.g. acetic or propionic acid, or aromatic acids such as benzoic acid. Hydrazone derivatives include, for example, dialkyl hydrazones such as dimethylhydrazone , or semicarbazide . Alkoximes include for example, methoximes.
The new enolates may be prepared by 11,12- enolisation of a corresponding 9a-fluoro-ll-keto steroid by treatment in a polar, aprotic medium with a strong base, for example an alkali metal hydride, aralkyl amide -aluminium-hydride ,- amide , -alkylamide / silyla ide , an alkali metal acetylide or substituted acetylide, &lkyl or amine-sol vated al l al i metal mcrdiiirerd/ alkyl . A sodium or potassium triarylmethy1 can also be used where the 3-keto-A 1 ' 4-system is present; in that case alkali metal exchange with the 11-keto group yields the desired 11 , 12-enolate . Such reagents do not, however, normally form an 11, 12- enolate directly. The strong base should, of course, be a stronger base than the desired enolate; that is the protonated derivative from which the base is derived, for example an amine or acetylene, should be a weaker acid than the enol form of the 11-ketone.
The alkali metal base may, for example, be a sodium, potassium or lithium derivative. In aral fcyl amides alkylamides,br alkylsilylamides the amine portion 1 2 1 2 can be defined as NR R where R and R , which may be the same or different, are alkyl groups or trialkyl- silyl, triaralkyl or triarylsilyl groups. The alkyl groups in such compounds advantageously have 1-6 carbon atoms and may, for example, be methyl, ethyl, propyl or hexyl groups.
Branched alkyl groups such as isopropyl groups are preferred in the alkylamides. Aralkyl groups are preferably monocyclic groups with 1-6 carbon atoms in the alkyl portion, for example benzyl or phenethyl groups. Aryl groups are preferably monocyclic, for example phenyl or tolyl groups. The branched alkylamides and the silylamides, and particularly diisopropylamides and bis-trimethyl- silylamides, give the most satisfactory results from the point of view of reactivity and cleanness of reaction. Lithium diisopropylamide is especially useful. It is also convenient to use a mixture of a lithium alkyl, e.g. butyl lithium, with an amine such as diisopropyla ine.
Triarylmethyl groups preferably carry monocyclic aryl groups such as phenyl or tolyl groups. Alkali metal alkyls include, for example, butyls, such as lithium butyl. There are preferably 1-5 carbon atoms in each alkyl group.
The formation of the 11,12 enolate from the 11-one is effected in a polar, aprotic medium, preferably a solvent serving to solvate alkali metal cations. Suitable solvents include ethers and cyclic ethers such as tetrahydro furan and dimethoxyethane , amides such as tetramethylurea, dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide, hexame hylphosphoramid and N-methylpyrrolidine and sulphones and sulphoxides such as sulpholan and dimethylsulphoxide. In general an amide or ethereal solvent is preferred.
Completion of the reaction may be monitored by removing an aliquot from the reaction mixture, treating it with benzoic anhydride and determining the product composition by n.m.r. or thin layer chromatography.
Sodium or potassium enolates are, in general, more readily prepared by the above method than lithium enolates but tend to undergo methathesis with other ketones whereby the enolates of the latter are formed and enter simultaneously into subsequent reactions. Thus, for example, although it is often convenient or synthetically advantageous to prepare the sodium 11 , 12-enolate, this enolate must be fluorinated rapidly and in very dilute solution or otherwise it undergoes metathesis with the product 9 , 12-difluoro-11-keto steroid to afford a mixture of 9-fluoro -11-keto steroid and 9, 12-difluoro -11, 12-enolate . This, of course, leads to the isolation of mixtures of mono-, di- and tri-fluorinated ketones and spoils the reaction from a preparative point of view. Lithium or magnesium enolates do not rearrange quickly enough to present this difficulty and it has been found surprisingly and fortunately that it is possible to convert the easily formed sodium enolate into a lithium enolate by simple expedient of treating the former in solution with a solution of lithium chloride e.g. in tetrahydrofuran. A rapid cation exchange ensues and sodium chloride is precipitated leaving behind a solution of the 11 , 12-lithium enolate which may then be fluorinated without difficulty. This same process may indeed be useful when carrying out other reactions which lead to substitution of the enolate at the 12-position.
Where a lithium enolate is required it is also some-r times convenient to cleave an 11,12-enol ester, e.g. the benzoate, with a lithium base such as an alkyl, amide or hydride. It is also possible to cleave a Δ^^^-11-tri alkylsilyloxy ether with an alkyl lithium. A magnesium enolate may be generated by cleavage of a Δ^^^-ΙΙ-trialkylsilyloxy ether or ester with a Grignard reagent for example an aliphatic, araliphatic or aromatic magnesium halide .
The solutions of the new 11 , 12-enolates in polar, aprotic solvent media are very versatile reagents and constitute a further feature of the invention. The enolates themselves in general, relatively unstable out of solution and there is normally no advantage in isolating them before subsequent reactions are effected, such as formation of enol ethers and esters or 12-halides.
In general, 12-halogenated steroids show enhancement of physiological activity as compared with un-substituted analogues, particularly in the corticoid field where the products are antiinflammatory agents, and in the 20-ketopregnane and oestrane field where the products exhibit progesterone-like activity.
Enol esters may be produced by reacting the enolate with an acylating agent, e.g. a reactive derivative of an acid, e.g. a halide or, more particularly, an anhydride of an organic acid such as an aliphatic, araliphatic or aromatic acid, e.g. acetic, propionic or benzoic acid.
Enol silyl ethers may be prepared by reaction with an etherifying reagent, e.g. a dialkyl or trialkyl silyl halide such as trimethyl onochloro-silane or dimethyldichlorosilane . 12-Halogenation may be effected by reaction with a source of positive halogen, for example molecular chlorine or bromine. It is particularly useful to introduce a 12-fluorine atom by reaction with an electrophilic fluorinating agent such as perchloryl fluoride, or a hypofluorite reagent such as trifluoro-methyl hypofluorite.
Electrophilic fluorinating agents such as perchlory fluoride give initially 9a-halo- 12- fluoro- 11-ketos teroids . These latter compounds may, however, be further converted to their 11 , 12-enola t s which can then be further reacted with halogeneting reagents to give the corresponding 9a- -12,12-;<-- trihalo -11-ketosteroids .
The 9 , 12-dif luoro Δ(11,12) enolates may also be treated with acid to afford 9 , 12-difluoro 11-keto steroids isomeric with the parent 9 , 12-dif luoro 11-keto compound. Direct perchloryl fluoride fluorination of the 9-fluoro Δ(11,12) enolate leads to the thermodynamically more stable 9 , 12-difluoro ketone^ which on enolization and protonolysis is isomerized to the thermodynamically less stable derivative.
The 9-halo-12-f luoro-ll-ketosteroids initially prepared may, for example, be reduced to the corresponding 11-hydroxysteroids , e.g. by conventional methods. Thus, for example, 9a , 12 , 12- trifluorocortisone 17a , 20 : 20 , 21-bismethylene dioxide 3-ethylene ketal may be reduced to give the corresponding Cortisol, for example using a borohydride reducing agent such as sodium borohydride.
