Definitions

  • This invention relates to a process for the preparation of a pharmaceutical intermediate.
  • the compound of the Formula I is a valuable intermediate which can be used in pharmaceutical industry for the preparation of pharmaceutical active ingredients.
  • the compound of the Formula I is useful in the preparation of sertraline, a known medicine which can be used against mental depression.
  • the chemical nomenclature of sertraline is cis-(1S,4S)-N-methyl-N-(3,3-dichloro-phenyl)-1 ,2,3,4-tetrahydro- -1 -naphthalene-amine.
  • the yield can be increased to 33 %
  • the contaminating isomer of the Formula II is a new compound not described in prior art.
  • the presence of this by-product is not desirable because if the amount of the 2,3-isomer of the Formula II in the desired 3,4-isomer of the Formula I exceeds 1 %, the corresponding contaminating 2,3-isomer appears also in the sertraline end product; in analoguous reactions this isomer cannot be removed to the desired extent.
  • the above object is achieved by subjecting the crude reaction product of the Formula I to a crystallization process to be described below and thereby reducing the amount of the isomer of the Formula II below a still tolerable limit.
  • the present invention is based on the recognition that the new 2,3-isomer of the Formula II not described in prior art has been isolated, identified by spectroscopical methods and a suitable process has been elaborated for the removal of this contamination A capillary GC and HPLC method has been elaborated for the qualitative side-by-side determination of the isomers of the Formulae I and II This process enables the control of isomer purity and served as basis for the elaboration of a purification method resulting highly pure compound of the Formula I
  • a C ⁇ -13 alkane methanol, ethanol, n-propanol or isopropanol
  • One may proceed preferably by using methanol for the crystallization
  • a C 6 10 alkane e g n-hexane, n-heptane, n- -octane
  • ether e g dioxane, diethyl ether, methyl tert butyl ether etc
  • One may proceed preferably by using as apolar solvent n-hexane or methyl-tert butyl ether
  • a solvent mixture containing an apolar solvent may also be used (e g a mixture of n-hexane and ethyl acetate or n-hexane and isopropanol)
  • the order of succession of the steps of the crystallization procedure are optional It is possible to crystallize the crude product at first from a polar solvent and thereafter from an apolar solvent or vica versa According to a preferred embodiment of the process one may proceed advantageously by crystallizing the crude product first from a polar solvent and thereafter from an apolar solvent or a solvent mixture containing an apolar solvent According to the process of the present invention, a 3,4- -isomer of the Formula I contaminated by less than 1 % - preferably less than 0.5 % - of the 2,3-isomer of the Formula II can be obtained.
  • the crude product of the Formula I used as starting material can be prepared by reacting o-dichloro-benzene and ⁇ -naphthol in a solvent as medium in the presence of a Friedel-Crafts catalyst.
  • an excess of the g-dichloro-benzene reagent plays the role of the solvent.
  • nitro-benzene, dichloro ethane, trichloro ethylene or carbon disulfide can be used.
  • the reaction is carried out in the presence of a Friedel- Crafts catalyst. It is preferred to use aluminium chloride, aluminium bromide, stannous (II) chloride or antimonic (V) pentafluoride, preferably aluminium chloride.
  • the reaction may be preferably carried out by using the ⁇ -naphthol : Friedel-Crafts catalyst : g-dichloro-benzene components in a molar ratio of 1:2:3 - 1:10:100.
  • the molar ratio of said components is particularly advantageously 1 :3:10.
  • the reaction may be performed at a temperature between 30°C and 200°C, preferably about 90°C.
  • the reaction takes place within some hours; the reaction time is generally 3-6 hours.
  • the reaction mixture may be worked up by known methods One may proceed preferably by pouring the reaction mixture in icecold water, extracting with an organic solvent (e g halogenated alkanes such as dichloro methane, chloroform, or other water-immiscible solvents, such as ethyl acetate) and washing, filtering and evaporating the organic layer
  • an organic solvent e g halogenated alkanes such as dichloro methane, chloroform, or other water-immiscible solvents, such as ethyl acetate

  • the substance thus obtained is dissolved in 84 ml of methanol under stirring and heating to reflux.
  • the solution is filtered, and the mother lye is slowly cooled under stirring. During cooling crystals slowly precipitate.
  • the mixture is cooled to OX.
  • the precipitated crystals are filtered and washed twice with 8 ml of methanol each.
