“PROCEDIMENTO PER LA PREPARAZIONE DI PITAVASTATINA E ANALOGHI†⠀ œPROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF PITAVASTATIN AND ANALOGSâ €
CAMPO DELL’INVENZIONE FIELD OF INVENTION
La presente invenzione riguarda un nuovo procedimento per la preparazione di intermedi sintetici a struttura β-chetoesterea utili nella preparazione di statine, in particolare Pitavastatina. The present invention relates to a new process for the preparation of synthetic intermediates with β-ketoesterea structure useful in the preparation of statins, in particular Pitavastatin.
STATO DELLA TECNICA STATE OF THE TECHNIQUE
Le statine sono una classe di composti farmaceutici utili nel trattamento della colesterolemia. Il loro meccanismo d’azione à ̈ legato alla capacità di queste molecole di agire come inibitori dell’attività della 3-idrossi-3-metilglutarico Coenzima A reduttasi (HMG-CoA), che si traduce nella inibizione a livello epatico della biosintesi del colesterolo. La struttura molecolare delle statine à ̈ normalmente costituita da una porzione A e da una catena laterale come sotto riportato. Statins are a class of pharmaceutical compounds useful in the treatment of cholesterolemia. Their mechanism of action is linked to the ability of these molecules to act as inhibitors of the activity of the 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaric Coenzyme A reductase (HMG-CoA), which results in the hepatic inhibition of biosynthesis cholesterol. The molecular structure of statins is normally made up of a portion A and a side chain as reported below.
OH OH O OH OH O
A(R) OH A (R) OH
dove il legame in grassetto rappresenta un legame semplice o doppio . where the link in bold represents a simple or double link.
La loro attività à ̈ attribuita proprio alla presenza della catena laterale, costituita essenzialmente da un residuo di acido 3,5-diidrossi eptanoico che mima il raggruppamento 3-idrossi-3metilglutarico del HMG-CoA. Their activity is attributed precisely to the presence of the side chain, essentially consisting of a residue of 3,5-dihydroxy heptanoic acid which mimics the 3-hydroxy-3methylglutaric grouping of HMG-CoA.
La configurazione (R) al C-3 e la configurazione relativa syn tra gli ossidrili à ̈ stata dimostrata essere essenziale per ottenere una alta attività inibitoria. In tutte le statine sviluppate e commercializzate fino ad oggi il problema chimico principale da risolvere era rappresentato proprio dalla sintesi del residuo di acido 3,5-diidrossi eptanoico otticamente attivo. Il problema à ̈ stato fino ad ora risolto impiegando le metodologie più diverse, come metodi enzimatici e microbiologici, (si veda Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. The (R) configuration at C-3 and the relative syn configuration between the hydroxyls has been shown to be essential for obtaining high inhibitory activity. In all the statins developed and marketed to date, the main chemical problem to be solved was represented precisely by the synthesis of the optically active 3,5-dihydroxy heptanoic acid residue. The problem has so far been solved by using the most diverse methodologies, such as enzymatic and microbiological methods, (see Angew. Chem. Int. Ed.
2005, 44, 362-365), ma anche sintetici (Helvetica Chimica Acta, 2007, 1069-1081). Tra i metodi sintetici attualmente disponibili ci sono sia processi che prevedono la sintesi enantioselettiva dell’acido, che quelli che portano alla formazione del racemo e successiva risoluzione. Tutte queste metodologie hanno permesso di ottenere intermedi sintetici otticamente attivi, ormai reperibili anche in commercio, che una volta inseriti nella struttura della statina portano alla sintesi della catena laterale in forma otticamente attiva. 2005, 44, 362-365), but also synthetics (Helvetica Chimica Acta, 2007, 1069-1081). Among the synthetic methods currently available there are both processes that involve the enantioselective synthesis of the acid, and those that lead to the formation of the racemic and subsequent resolution. All these methodologies have made it possible to obtain optically active synthetic intermediates, now also available on the market, which once inserted in the statin structure lead to the synthesis of the side chain in an optically active form.
Nel caso dei metodi sintetici che prevedono la risoluzione del racemo, o di quelli enzimatici che non portano a derivati di purezza ottica sufficientemente elevata per le specifiche di farmacopea, per ottenere la statina d’interesse con valori di eccesso enantiomerico superiori al 99,5% sono necessari dei trattamenti (ad esempio purificazioni su HPLC chirale o cristallizzazione di sali diastereoisomerici) in grado di innalzare sia il valore dell’eccesso enantiomerico sia la purezza chimica in generale. In the case of synthetic methods that provide for the resolution of the racemic, or enzymatic ones that do not lead to derivatives of sufficiently high optical purity for the pharmacopoeia specifications, to obtain the statin of interest with enantiomeric excess values greater than 99.5 % treatments are necessary (for example purifications on chiral HPLC or crystallization of diastereoisomeric salts) capable of raising both the value of the enantiomeric excess and the chemical purity in general.
La prima statina à ̈ stata la mevastatina, isolata dal Penicillium citrinum, e impiegata successivamente nella sintesi della statina semisintetica pravastatina. Le statine oggigiorno presenti in commercio, ad esempio sia la pravastatina semisintetica che la lovastatina, di origine completamente naturale, sono caratterizzate dall’avere la catena laterale legata al nucleo A con un legame singolo C-C o C-N (il legame in grassetto nella formula sopra riportata). Recentemente invece si sono imposte sul mercato delle statine di origine completamente sintetica come ed esempio la rosuvastatina, la fluvastatina e la pitavastatina, dotate di altissima attività biologica. Queste statine sono caratterizzate da una catena laterale legata tramite un doppio legame C=C a geometria rigorosamente (E) (legame in grassetto della formula sopra riportata) al nucleo A della statina, normalmente avente una complessa struttura aromatica. Anche in questo caso gli approcci alla risoluzione del problema della configurazione assoluta del doppio legame sono stati i più vari e le sintesi proposte sono state sia consecutive che convergenti. In particolare però sono stati sviluppati ed ottimizzati i metodi per ottenere in maniera convergente la formazione della statina col doppio legame a geometria (E). Questi metodi si basano sulle metodologie classiche della formazione dei doppi legami (E) mediante reazioni di olefinazione su opportune aldeidi, presenti indifferentemente o sulla porzione aromatica o sulla catena laterale della statina, attraverso reazioni di Wittig, Horner-Emmons o Julia, come ben riassunto in Organic Process Research & Development 2001, 5, 519-527 per la fluvastatina. The first statin was mevastatin, isolated from Penicillium citrinum, and subsequently used in the synthesis of the semisynthetic statin pravastatin. The statins present on the market today, for example both semi-synthetic pravastatin and lovastatin, of completely natural origin, are characterized by having the side chain linked to nucleus A with a single C-C or C-N bond (the link in bold in the formula above reported). Recently, however, statins of completely synthetic origin such as rosuvastatin, fluvastatin and pitavastatin, with very high biological activity, have established themselves on the market. These statins are characterized by a side chain linked by a C = C double bond with a strictly (E) geometry (link in bold of the above formula) to the A nucleus of the statin, normally having a complex aromatic structure. Also in this case the approaches to solving the problem of the absolute configuration of the double bond have been the most varied and the proposed syntheses have been both consecutive and convergent. In particular, however, methods have been developed and optimized to obtain in a convergent way the formation of the statin with the double bond with geometry (E). These methods are based on the classical methodologies of the formation of double bonds (E) by means of olefination reactions on suitable aldehydes, present indifferently or on the aromatic portion or on the side chain of the statin, through reactions of Wittig, Horner-Emmons or Julia, as well summarized. in Organic Process Research & Development 2001, 5, 519-527 for fluvastatin.
Sebbene queste metodiche abbiano portato all’ottenimento di diverse statine di grande successo commerciale, queste sintesi soffrono ancora in molti casi di problemi di regioselettività , legate alla formazione della statina impurezza col doppio legame a configurazione (Z), di problemi di costi legati all’uso di basi organiche e reattivi costosi, delicati o da preparare in situ in condizioni sofisticate di reazione, e nel caso di fosforani e fosfonati, impiegati per la Wittig, pure del problema dello smaltimento dei reflui contenenti fosforo organico. Although these methods have led to the obtaining of several highly commercially successful statins, these syntheses still suffer in many cases from regioselectivity problems, linked to the formation of the statin impurity with the double bond configuration (Z), problems of costs related to the € ™ use of expensive, delicate or reactive organic bases and reactives to be prepared in situ under sophisticated reaction conditions, and in the case of phosphoranes and phosphonates, used for Wittig, also the problem of disposing of waste containing organic phosphorus.
Esiste quindi la necessità di un metodo alternativo più vantaggioso per preparare le statine, in particolare quelle di formula (I), qui riportate, contenenti un doppio legame -C=C- a configurazione (E) tra la catena laterale ed in nucleo A, ed intermedi utili per la loro sintesi. Tale nuovo metodo dovrebbe in particolare essere più semplicemente scalabile industrialmente, prevedere l’impiego di reagenti possibilmente più stabili ed economici, allo stesso tempo fornire alte rese e reflui di processo più ecocompatibili e facilmente smaltibili. There is therefore a need for a more advantageous alternative method to prepare statins, in particular those of formula (I), reported here, containing a double bond -C = C- with configuration (E) between the side chain and in nucleus A, and intermediates useful for their synthesis. In particular, this new method should be more simply industrially scalable, foresee the use of possibly more stable and economical reagents, at the same time providing high yields and more environmentally friendly and easily disposable process wastewater.

A OH * ;;; (IX); It has indeed been surprisingly found that the salt of Pitavastatin with (R) -naphthylethyl amine, of formula (IX), can be isolated by crystallization, for example from an organic solvent, preferably a ketone, typically acetone, an alkanol, typically isopropanol, or a mixture thereof or a mixture of one or two of them with water, to obtain a product with a high degree of chemical and optical purity, in both cases, equal to or greater than 99%, typically equal to or greater than 99.5%. In particular, the Pitavastatin salt with (R) -naphthylethyl amine of formula (IX) having this degree of purity can be converted into another Pitavastatin salt, for example in the calcium salt, with known methods. ; A Pitavastatin salt thus obtained using a salt of formula (IX) with such purity similarly presents a high degree of both chemical and optical purity, in both cases, equal to or greater than 99%, typically equal to or greater than 99, 5%. This conversion can be carried out, for example, by treating an aqueous solution of the salt of formula (IX) with an acid, to obtain by extraction with an organic solvent, for example an alkyl ester of a carboxylic acid, in particular acetate of ethyl, an ether, in particular t-butyl methyl ether, a solution of Pitavastatin, which can optionally be converted into another pharmaceutically acceptable salt, for example the calcium salt. An acid can be for example an aqueous solution of an organic or mineral acid, preferably an aqueous solution of HCl. ; A further object of the invention is therefore a purification process of Pitavastatin, or one of its salt, comprising the conversion of Pitavastatin or one of its salt, into a salt of Pitavastatin with (R) -naphthylethyl amine, the isolation in crystalline form, and the subsequent conversion into Pitavastatin or another salt thereof.

The solvent is preferably an ethereal solvent, for example tetrahydrofuran or apolar aprotic, typically toluene. ; Malonic acid monoester (VI) where R2, being defined as above, is preferably benzyl can first be converted into its magnesium salt by treatment with at least 2 equivalents of a Grignard reagent, for example isopropylmagnesium chloride, and then reacted with a compound of formula (VII), to yield, after spontaneous decarboxylation, the compound of formula (V). ; A compound of formula (VI) is commercially available or can be prepared with known methods for monoesterification of malonic acid. ; A compound of formula (VII), or a salt thereof, can in turn be prepared by activating the carboxyl function of a compound of formula (VIII), or a salt thereof, ;;; O OP O O OP O; R1 R1 ;; H OOX O ;; (VIII) (VII); where P, R1 and X are as defined above. When X is chlorine, the activation of the carboxylic acid of formula (VIII) can be carried out using for example thionyl chloride, when X is imidazole, for example carbonyldiimidazole can be used. ; A compound of formula (VIII) is commercially available or can be prepared for example by chemical desymmetrization of hydroxyglutaric anhydride protected with the protective group P, previously defined, as reported for example in J.
