Description

AN IMPROVED PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF ZOLEDRONIC ACID FIELD OF INVENTION
The present invention relates to an improved process for the preparation of zoledronic acid. Zoledronic acid, which is l-hydroxy-:2-imidazol-l-yl-phosphonoefhyl- bisphosphonic acid, has the formula-I given below.
Figure imgf000002_0001
Zoledronic acid is shown to have direct effects on osteoclast maturation. It is widely used as a bone resorption inhibitor.
BACKGROUND OF INVENTION
Zoledronic acid of the formula-I was reported in US pat. No. 4,939,130 by Ciba-Geigy (Switzerland). According to the process disclosed in this patent imidazol-1-ylacetic acid hydrochloride is reacted with phosphorous trichloride and phosphoric acid in the presence of chlorobenzene at 100°C. Boiling of the reaction mass with cone, hydrochloric acid and dilution with acetone gave zoledronic acid in 41% yield. The reaction was done on a 6.0g output scale.
The above process has some disadvantages like no control on exothermic nature of reaction, no control on loss of phosphorus trichloride due to vigorous evolution of hydrogen chloride gas and poor yield. Loss of phosphorous trichloride will lead to shortage of required moles of this reagent in the reaction. Shortage of phosphorous trichloride will lead to formation of gummy impurities and poor yield. Also, the boiling point (131-132 °C) of chlorobenzene used in the process is higher than the boiling point (76 °C) of phosphorous trichloride. Controlling the reaction temperature (100 °C) is not possible using chlorobenzene as a solvent. Another disadvantage in the prior art is the reaction mass becomes very thick within no time and mixing of reagents is practically impossible using standard stirrers.
Zolidronic acid, has become a well-known bone resorption inhibition drug that has now been on the market and has shown great promise as a valuable bone resorption inhibitor with few side effects. Keeping in view of the difficulties in commercialization of above- mentioned process for the preparation of zoledronic acid we aimed to develop a simple and economical process for commercial production of zoledronic acid.
We observed that a promising approach for such a process is to (a) control the rate of reaction by controlling the addition of one or more reagents (b) do the reaction at lowest possible temperature so that the loss of reagents such as phosphorous trichloride can be avoided and (c) improve the mixing capacity of reagents to the maximum possible time of reaction so that the yield can be consistent at any scale of reaction.
Accordingly, the main objective of the present invention is to provide an improved process for the preparation of zoledronic acid.
Another objective of the present invention is to provide an improved process for the preparation of zoledronic acid at much higher yield (ca. 80%) than the yield (41%) obtained in the prior art process.
Yet another objective of the present invention is to provide an improved process for the preparation of zoledronic acid which is free from the problems experienced hitherto in the scaling up of the process for commercial purposes.
Still another objective of the present invention is to provide an improved process for the preparation of zoledronic acid wherein the yield of zoledronic acid produced is consistent.
Another objective of the present invention is to provide an improved process for the preparation of zoledronic acid which is commercially applicable. Another objective of the present invention is to provide an improved process for the preparation of zoledronic acid wherein the exothermic nature of the reaction mass is avoided by controlling the addition of phosphorous trichloride, thereby making the process safe.
Another objective of the present invention is to provide an improved process for the preparation of zoledronic acid wherein the reaction is conducted at lowest possible temperature such as 50-80 °C for better control over stirring problem.
Another objective of the present invention is to provide an improved process for the preparation of zoledronic which is simple and economical.
The present invention has been developed based on our finding that by controlling the rate of addition of phosphorus trichloride to the reaction mass exothermic nature of the reaction can be controlled. Further, the reaction takes place at temperatures as low as 50 °C. Therefore, heating of reaction mass to 100 °C as mentioned in the prior art is not essential to get optimum yield of zoledronic acid. Also, stirring of reaction mass by using standard stirrers became easy without any difficulty.
Accordingly, the present invention provides an improved process for the preparation of zoledronic acid of the formula I

which comprises: (i) heating at a temperature in the range of 50-80 °C a solution of imidazol-1- ylacetic acid hydrochloride with ortho-phosphoric acid in a solvent medium where boiling point of the solvent used is lesser or close to that of phosphorous trichloride (ii) adding phosphorous trichloride to the reaction mass slowly over a period of 2- 3hr at a temperature in the range of 50-80 °C (iii) keeping the resulting reaction mass at a temperature in the range of 50-80 °C for a period of l-6hr (iv) adding hydrochloric acid to the reaction mass and keeping the reaction mass at a temperature in the range of 60-120 °C (v) separating the organic solvent from the reaction mass while it is still hot (vi) diluting the aqueous layer containing zoledronic acid with water miscible solvents (vii) filtering the crude zoledronic acid and (viii) recrystallising zoledronic acid from water or aqueous alcohols
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention temperature of the reaction mass during phosphorous trichloride addition in the step (i) may be preferably 60-70 °C. Initial maintenance of reaction mass for first two hours should be in the range of 50-60 °C. Solvent used for the reaction should be hydrocarbon solvents such as heptane, cyclohexane, benzene, fluorobenzene, halogenated solvent such as chloroform, ethylene dichloride, carbon tetrachloride, preferably cyclohexane or ethylene dichloride. Solvents like toluene, xylene or chlorobenzene can also be used if one controls the rate of phosphorous trichloride addition and maintains the reaction temperature between 50- 80°C. After implementing these process parameters yield of zoledronic acid was found to be more than 75%.
Preferred reaction time in step (iii) is between 4-6hr. Temperature of reaction mass during the hydrolysis in step (iv) is preferably the boiling point of reaction mass containing water and the organic solvent used, preferably 80-100 °C. This simplification has led to the synthesis of zoledronic acid in a very simple and easy to adopt manner suitable for any commercial scale. Also, without any repeated recrystallization techniques, zoledronic acid could be prepared in very high purity (>99.8%).
The invention is described in detail in the Examples given below which are provided only by way of illustration and therefore should not be construed to limit the scope of the invention further illustrated by the following example. Example 1

Into a 1-L, three-necked RB flask is charged lOOg of imidazole, 40ml of DMF, 400ml of toluene, 180g of potassium carbonate and lOg of potassium iodide. After stirring for lOmin, 240g of methyl chloroacetate was added slowly over a period of 1.5-2.0hr at 25- 30°C. The reaction mass was kept under stirring at 25-30 °C for lhr and slowly heated to 60-65°C. After maintaining at the same temperature for 2-3h reaction was found to be over by TLC. The reaction mass was cooled to 25-30°C and added 200ml of ethyl acetate. The reaction mass was stirred for 20-3 Omin and decanted the top organic layer. The residue was once again extracted with ethyl acetate (200ml). Finally water (200ml) was added to the reaction mass and stirred for 3 Omin.

The reaction mass was treated with charcoal and distilled off water under vaccum keeping the temperature below 80°C. The residue was cooled to 25-30°C and added 250ml of methanol. The suspension was stirred for lh and filtered the mass. The wet cake was washed with 50ml of methanol and dried at 50-60°C to get 150g of white crystalline solid of imidazol-1-ylacetic acid. Melting point is 268-269 °C. Purity by HPLC is 99.2%. (ii) Preparation of imidazol-lylacetic acid hydrochloride
