Definitions
- the invention relates to a process for obtaining the metastable form of 2E,4E-5-(3,3-dimethyl-2 / 3-dihydro-l-benzoxepin-5-yl)-3-methylpentadien-2 / 4-oic acid and a number of its derivatives, and also to the corresponding metastable forms of these compounds, per se.
- the derivatives of this acid that are targeted by the invention are those in which the phenyl group is substituted by one or two substituents chosen from alkyl, alkoxy and a halogen atom.
- Alk represents C ⁇ -C 6 lower alkyl
- n 0, 1 or 2; and the radicals R, which may be identical or different, are alkyl or alkoxy groups or halogen atoms.
- the metastable crystalline form is of significant advantage in terms of pharmaceutical presentation, especially in the case of a presentation form comprising a high dose of active principle.
- the process of the invention more specifically comprises the steps consist- ing in: a) salifying the corresponding stable form of the compound of the formula I by forming a carboxylic acid salt; b) acidifying an aqueous solution of the salt obtained after step a) until precipitation of the carboxylic acid in its metastable form is obtained.
- the stable form of the compound of the formula I can be prepared simply by performing the steps consisting in:
- - saponifying preferably by the action of sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide, at a temperature from 50 to 110°C, for example at a temperature from 60 to 85°C, an alkyl ester of 2E,4E-5-(3,3-dimethyl-2,3-dihydro-l- benzoxepin-5-yl)-3-methylpentadien-2,4-oic acid;
- lower alkanols examples include Gi-Gi alcohols, such as methanol, etha- nol and propanol.
- step a) the salification can be performed with any organic or mineral base generally used in the art.
- the salification step can thus give a salt of an alkali metal, of an alkaline- earth metal or of a transition metal (such as sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium or aluminium).
- the salification is preferably performed by the action of sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide, to give the corresponding sodium or potassium salt, respectively.
- the salt is not isolated from the reaction medium. Thus, it is desirable to perform the process of step a) in aqueous medium.
- a mineral or organic base is added to a suspen- sion of the acid of the formula I or a derivative thereof in water.
- the addition of the base is preferably performed at a temperature of between 10 and 30°C and better still between 15 and 20°C
- the acid concentration at the start of the addition of the base usually ranges between 0.1 and 5 M and better still between 0.1 and 1 M, for example between 0.5 M and 1 M.
- the reaction medium is filtered through filter paper or a sinter funnel and the filter is then rinsed with water, which is combined with the filtrate.
- Step b) is then performed using this filtrate.
- any acid usually used to release a carboxylic function in salt form can be used for the acidification.
- acids that can be used are, for example, hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, a sulfuric acid, a phosphoric acid, a sulfonic acid, citric acid, maleic acid and fumaric acid.
- the acid used for the acidification is preferably hydrochloric acid or sulfu- ric acid.
- the acid is added directly to the aqueous reaction medium comprising the salt and obtained directly in step a), without intermediate isolation of the salt.
- the salt obtained in step a) is isolated and then redissolved in an aqueous solution consisting essentially of water before addition of the acid, for example before addition of hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid.
- the acidification is usually performed at a temperature from 50 to 120°C and preferably at a temperature of between 70 and 90°C.
- the concentration of carboxylic acid of the formula I preferably ranges between 0.05 and 10 M and preferentially between 0.1 and 0.5 M at the end of the acidification.
- the invention also relates to the metastable form of the compounds of the formula I resulting from the process of the invention:
- n 0, 1 or 2; and the radicals R, which may be identical or different, are alkyl or alkoxy groups or halogen atoms.
- the metastable form of the compound of the formula I in which n represents 1 and R, in position 7, represents methoxy is also characterised by:
- w means weak intensity
- s means strong intensity
- m means medium intensity
- the invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising, as active principle, the metastable form of a compound of the formula I as defined above, in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.
- compositions can be administered orally in the form of tablets, gel capsules or granules with immediate release or sustained release, intravenously in the form of an injectable solution, transdermally in the form of an adhesive transdermal device, or locally in the form of a solution, cream or gel.
- a solid composition for oral administration is prepared by adding to the active principle a filler and, where appropriate, a binder, a disintegrating agent, a lubricant, a colorant or a flavour enhancer, and by forming the mixture into a tablet, a coated tablet, a granule, a powder or a capsule.
- fillers include lactose, corn starch, sucrose, glucose, sorbitol, crystalline cellulose and silicon dioxide
- binders include poly(vinyl alcohol), poly(vinyl ether), ethylcellulose, methylcellulose, acacia, gum tragacanth, gelatine, shellac, hydroxypropylcellulose, hydroxypropylmethyl- cellulose, calcium citrate, dextrin and pectin.
- lubricants include magnesium stearate, talc, polyethylene glycol, silica and hardened plant oils.
- the colorant may be any of those permitted for used in medicaments.
- flavour enhancers include cocoa powder, mint in herb form, aromatic powder, mint in oil form, borneol and cinnamon powder.
- the tablet or granule may be suitably coated with sugar, gelatine or the like.
- An injectable form comprising the compound of the present invention as active principle is prepared, where appropriate, by mixing the said compound with a pH regulator, a buffer agent, a suspension agent, a solubiliser, a stabiliser, an isotonic agent and/ or a preserving agent, and by converting the mixture into a form for intravenous, subcutaneous or intramuscular injection, according to a standard process.
- the injectable form obtained can be freeze- dried by a standard process.
- suspension agents include methylcellulose, polysorbate 80, hydroxyethylcellulose, acacia, powdered gum tragacanth, sodium carboxy- methylcellulose and polyethoxylated sorbitan monolaurate.
- solubilisers include castor oil solidified with polyoxyethylene, polysorbate 80, nicotinamide, polyethoxylated sorbitan monolaurate and the ethyl ester of castor oil fatty acid.
- the stabiliser encompasses sodium sulfite, sodium metasulfite and ether
- the preserving agent encompasses methyl p-hydroxybenzoate, ethyl p-hydroxybenzoate, sorbic acid, phenol, cresol and chlorocresol.
- the invention relates to the use of the metastable form of a compound of the formula I as defined above, for the prepa- ration of a medicament for the prevention or treatment of dyslipidaemia, atherosclerosis and diabetes.
- the orange solution obtained is evaporated until a temperature of 90°C is reached, it is then cooled to about 45°C and 8 1 of tert-butyl methyl ether are added, followed by addition of 0.7 1 of 37.5% sulfuric acid.
- the mixture is stirred for 15 minutes between 40 and 45°C and the organic phase is then separated out by settling, washed at this same temperature with twice 5 1 of water and then filtered, and the filtrate is distilled at normal pressure.
- HPLC purity of 99.89%
- the melting point as measured by differential thermal analysis is 156°C. It was measured by scanning in the temperature interval ranging from 20°C to 180°C, at a rate of temperature increase of 10°C/ minute.
- Figure 2 shows the infrared spectrum of the metastable form obtained.
- the melting point of this metastable form is from 151 to 153°C as measured by differential thermal analysis by scanning between 40 and 180°C at a rate of 0.5°C/ minute.
- Figure 3 shows the X-ray diffraction spectrum.
- the dissolution kinetics promote the xenobiotic bioavailability of this type of active principle. It is also known that the dissolution kinetics are accelerated by increasing the specific surface area.
- a comparison of the apparent densities and specific surface areas of the two crystalline forms shows a greater apparent density of the metastable form compared with the thermodynamically stable form for the same specific surface area value.
- Table I below gives the respective values of the apparent density and the specific surface area (BET surface area) for the vari- ous crystalline forms.
- the problem consists in formulating the active principle using a powder that is not very dense, this being particularly difficult in the case of pres- entation forms with a high dose of active principle.
- the use of the metastable form makes it possible to overcome this reduction in density caused by any type of grinding (such as that obtained by treatment in a knife mill or in a ball mill) and particularly for the purpose of micronisation.
- the metastable form thus shows a significant advantage in terms of pharmaceutical presentation.
- Table II presents a comparison of the specific surface areas of different batches of the compound of the formula I in which n represents 1 and R in position 7 represents methoxy, obtained by carrying out different grinding conditions.
