Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a process for the preparation of acetyl-amidiniophenylalanyl-cyclohexylglycyl-pyridinioalaninamides of the formula I,
  • the anions X are physiologically acceptable anions, and their analogs, which are effective inhibitors of the blood coagulation factor Xa and which can be used, for example, for preventing thromboses.
  • the process according to the invention comprises the coupling of 2-[2-acetylamino-3-(4-amidinophenyl)propionylamino]-2-cyclohexylacetic acid, which is obtained from 2-[2-acetylamino-3-(4-cyanophenyl)acryloylamino]-2-cyclohexylacetic acid by asymmetric hydrogenation and conversion of the cyano group into the amidine, or a salt thereof, with a 3-(2-amino-2-carbamoylethyl)-1-methylpyridinium salt or a salt thereof.
  • the invention furthermore provides starting materials and intermediates for this process, processes for their preparation and acetyl-(S)-4-amidiniophenylalanyl-(S)-cyclohexylglycyl-(S)-(1 -methyl-3-pyridinio)alaninamide as ditosylate salt.
  • WO-A-95/29189 Compounds of the formula I and analogs thereof are described in WO-A-95/29189 and the corresponding U.S. Pat. No. 5,849,510. According to WO-A-95/29189, they are prepared by solid-phase synthesis using protective-group techniques where 3-pyridylalanine is coupled to a resin using a Knorr linker and then coupled with cyclohexylglycine, the pyridine nitrogen atom is quaternized, the dipeptide is coupled with acetyl-4-amidinophenylalanine, prepared from 4-cyanophenylalanine, and the product is, following cleavage from the resin, purified by chromatography. This solid-phase process is unsuitable for preparing multi-kg quantities required for development tasks, such as toxicological and clinical studies, or even for the synthesis on an industrial scale.
  • a pharmaceutically active compound is acceptable as development product and for later use in patients only if the preparation can be carried out on the required scale and with adequate purity, where purity, in the case of compounds having centers of asymmetry, includes in particular also stereochemical purity.
  • the compounds of the formula I contain a peptidic dication carrying positive charges in amidinium group and the N-methylpyridinium group.
  • the amorphous nature of the salts is a considerable problem in the preparation of a compound of the formula I on a relatively large scale, since it renders recrystallization impossible and fractional precipitation is the only purification method feasable for use on a large scale.
  • the purification efficiency of a precipitation is, of course, a lot lower than that of a crystallization, and it is therefore necessary to prepare even the crude compound of the formula I with a suitable anion X in a reaction that proceeds as smoothly as possible, so that in the end a product of clinically acceptable purity can be obtained by fractional precipitation.
  • the preparation process naturally also has to be acceptable with respect to factors such as, for example, yield, the number of steps or the availability and the price of the starting materials.
  • the product is isolated in the form of the trifluoroacetic acid salt, by evaporation of the reaction solution obtained in the last reaction step, dissolving the residue, addition of trifluoroacetic acid, filtration and freeze-drying.
  • the purity of the product obtained by this process including the stereochemical purity, does not meet the requirements, necessitating a complicated chromatographic purification which involves heavy losses and is unacceptable when conducting the process on a large scale.
  • the process has considerable technical disadvantages, for example the use of solvents such as diethyl ether or hexane or working at low temperatures, and the use of expensive starting materials (small amounts of the three enantiomerically pure unnatural a-amino acids (S)-3-pyridylalanine, (S)-cyclohexylglycine and (S)-4-amidinophenylalanine (or (S)-4-cyanophenylalanine; the amidino group can be formed from the cyano group) contained as building blocks in the compounds of the formula I are commercially available, but these compounds are very expensive). Accordingly, there is still a need for a smooth-running process for the large-scale preparation of compounds of the formula I having a suitable anion X.

  • the structural unit CH—CO—NH—CH—CO which has two centers of chirality which are sensitive to epimerization, is not formed in a coupling reaction of two chiral a-amino acids as in the known processes, but by asymmetric hydrogenation.
  • the peptide coupling is clean and quantitative, with inexpensive reagents being used. Epimerization is very low.
  • the compounds of the formula I are obtained in high yield and in high chemical purity and stereochemical purity by fractional precipitation. Chromatographic purifications or expensive and complicated technologies, such a freeze-drying, are not necessary to obtain the desired purities.
  • the present invention also provides processes which are analogous to the above process and in which, using starting materials having a different configuration, stereoisomers of the compounds of the formula I are prepared, for example compounds in which the center of chirality in the amidinophenylalanine unit has the (R) configuration and/or the center of chirality in the cyclohexylglycine unit has the (R) configuration and/or the center of chirality in the pyridylalanine unit has the (R) configuration, or compounds which, on one or more of the centers of chirality, are present as (RS) mixtures.
