Description
RESOLUTION PROCESS
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Technical Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to an enzymatic resolution process for the preparation of cyclic β-amino acid and ester enantiomers and the salts thereof.
Until recently, investigations on the cyclic β-amino acid stereoisomers [Fϋlop, F.; Chem. Rev. 101, 2181 (2001); Fϋlδp, F.; Studies in Natural Product Chemistry Vol. 22, Atta-ur- -Rahman, Ed., Elsevier Science Publishers, pp. 273 (2000)] have been mainly considered as studies of academic interest. A decade ago, however, (lR,2S)-2-arninocyclopentane-l-carboxylic acid (cispentacin) proved to be an antifungal antibiotic. Cispentacin was isolated independently by two Japanese groups from Bacillus cereus [Konishi, M.; Nishio, M.; Saitoh, K.; Miyaki, T.; Oki, T.; Kawaguchi, H. J.; Antibiotics 42, 1749 (1989); Oki, T.; Hirano, M.; Tomatsu, K.; Numata, K.; Kamei, H. J.; Antibiotics 42, 1756 (1989)] and Streptomyces setonii [Iwamoto, T.; Tsujii, E.; Ezaki, M.; Fujie, A.; Hashimoto, S.; Okuhara, M.; Kohsaka, M.; Imanaka, H.; Kawabata, K.; Inamoto, Y.; Sakane, K. J.; Antibiotics 43, 1 (1990); Kawabata, K.; Inamoto, Y.; Sakane, K.; Iwamoto, T.; Hashimoto, S. J.; Antibiotics 43, 513 (1990)] and its strong antifungal (anti- -Candida albicans agent) properties were demonstrated.
Cyclic β-amino acids may also be used as building blocks for the preparation of modified (unnatural) analogues of biologically active peptides. The activity and/or the stability of a naturally occurring pharmacologically active peptide can be increased by insertion of a cyclic β-amino acid in place of an α-amino acid of the peptide. Cyclic β-amino acids may exist in cis and trans diastereomeric forms, and - due to the two stereocentres present in the molecule - there are altogether four enantiomers for one structure.
It has recently been established that oligopeptide chains built up from trans-2- -aminocyclopentane-1-carboxylic acid or trαw-2-aminocyclohexane-l-carboxylic acid can fold into a stable helical structure [Appella, D. H.; Christianson, L. A.; Klein, D. A.; Powell, D. R.; Huang, X.; Barchi, J. J.; Gellman, S. H.; Nature, 387, 381 (1997); Hetenyi, A.; Mandity, I. M.; Martinek, T. A.; Tόth, G. K.; Fϋlδp, F.; J. Am. Chem. Soc. 127, 547 (2005)], while the oligomers built up from the cis isomer, e.g. (lR,2S)-2-aminocyclopentane-l- -carboxylic acid, present a strand conformation [Martinek, T. A.; Tόth, G. K.; Vass, E.;
Hollόsi, M.; Fϋlδp, F.; Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 41, 1718 (2002)].
Cyclic β-amino acids have also been successfully used in the synthesis of drags [e.g.
Hiratate, Akira; Tatsuzuki, Makoto; Busujima, Tsuyoshi; Preparation of Heterocyclic
Compounds Containing 2-Substituted Cycloalkane-Carboxylic Acid Derivative Moiety as Cysteine Protease Inhibitors. PCT Int. Appl (2005), 120 pp. CODEN: PIXXD2
WO 2005000793 Al 20050106 CAN 142:114079; Kanno, Hideyuki; Yoshino, Toshiharu;
Nagata, Tsutomu; Mochizuki, Akiyoshi; Preparation of Diamides and Their Use as Factor
Xa Inhibitors and Blood Coagulation Inhibitors for Oral Treatment of Thrombotic Diseases,
Jpn. KoM Tokkyo Koho (2004), 227 pp. CODEN: JKXXAF JP 2004210716 A2 20040729 CAN 141 :156930; Marcin, Lawrence R.; Higgins, Mendi A.; Preparation of Arylsύlfonyl-
-Amino-Cycloalkyl-Carboxamides as Inhibitors of β-Amyloid Production. U.S. Pat. Appl.
PuU. (2005), 17 pp. CODEN: USXXCO US 2005113442 Al 20050526 CAN 142:481832]. Various examples show that in the cases of compounds containing a chiral carbon atom, the desired biological effect usually resides in one of the enantiomers of the racemic mixture. Thus, there is a growing demand for enantiomerically pure biologically active products prepared from cyclic β-amino acids, e.g. in drug research it is extremely important to synthesize all of the possible enantiomers of an active chiral compound in order to study the pharmacological character of each enantiomer separately.
2. Description of the Prior Art
The methods used to date for the synthesis of cyclic β-amino acid enantiomers [Fulδp, F.; Chem. Rev. 101, 2181 (2001)] can be divided into two main groups. One group involves the stereospecific methods, e.g. catalytic asymmetric hydrogenation, or reduction of chiral enamine derivatives by using chiral catalysts or other chiral auxiliary reagents to ensure the selectivity of the reaction in order to obtain the desired enantiomer only. In these cases various difficulties can arise such as, e.g. in asymmetric hydrogenations, the syntheses often involve the use of rather expensive chiral catalysts, or the removal of the remaining traces of catalyst in the products may be problematic. The reduction of chiral enamines usually demands rather expensive chiral auxiliary reagents with complicated structures, which should be split off from the product, and this final step can lead to a significant loss in molecular weight. Such methods may create a source of pollution for the environment, thus they are not recommended for large-scale syntheses.
The other group of methods for producing enantiopure cyclic β— amino acids involves
processes which use suitable precursors, e.g. a β-lactam; or which start from a racemate or a mixture of enantiomers of different ratio and result in the desired enantiomeric product. Effectively some cyclic β-amino acid enantiomers can be prepared from cyclic β-lactams via enzyme-catalyzed hydrolysis of the lactam ring [Forrό, E.; Fϋlop, F.; Org. Lett, 5, 1209 (2003)]. A disadvantage of this method is that the syntheses of starting racemic β-lactams are often cumbersome and proceed with low yields; furthermore, resulting from the structure of β-lactams, exclusively the enantiomers of the cis cyclic β-amino acids can be prepared in the case of small- or medium-sized rings.
One of the methods leading to the resolution of racemates goes through the preparation of diastereomeric salts, while an other applies enzyme-catalyzed kinetic resolution. In the case of earlier methods involving the preparation of diastereomeric salts in most cases only enantiomerically enriched products are obtained.
In order to use the enzyme-catalyzed kinetic resolution method for the preparation of cyclic β-amino acid ester enantiomers the enzyme-catalyzed esterification of the corresponding acids has been studied [Kanerva, L. T.; Csomόs, P.; Sundholm, O.; Bernath, G.; Fϋlδp, F.; Tetrahedron: Asymmetry 7, 1705 (1996)]. The authors disclosed that protecting groups are necessary to block the appropriate functional groups; otherwise for example in the course of the enzyme-catalyzed esterification of the racemic amino acid with an achiral alcohol, the danger of the formation of an intramolecular amide should be faced. A further disadvantage of this method is observed when the carboxylic function is protected by an ester (e.g. ethyl ester) group and an enzyme-catalyzed trans-esterification of a protected esterified carboxylic function is performed. In this case namely, the unreacted ester and the selectively produced ester enantiomer are present in the reaction mixture at the same time, and the similarity of their chemical properties renders their separation highly difficult. Such procedures can not be used for industrial-scale syntheses. To eliminate these difficulties, the same authors analysed the enzyme-catalyzed N-acylations of some cyclic β-amino esters in order to obtain the corresponding products in enantiopure form. One disadvantage of this method is that the separation of the products is time consuming: column chromatography is necessary. Furthermore an even greater disadvantage blocking the industrial application of this method is that the hydrolysis of the N-acylated amide enantiomer into the β-amino acid raises difficulties; this step is not even described in the article. These hydrolysis reactions are usually not too efficient, the yields are low and epimerization of the obtained enantiomers can occur.
One of the enzyme-catalyzed resolution methods the enzyme-catalyzed ester
hydrolysis is disclosed in patent EP 1054996 Bl wherein this method is applied for the hydrolysis of racemic heterocyclic β-lactam ester compounds with a single chiral centre leading to enantiopure cyclic α-amino acids possessing an amino function as part of the cycle therefore there is no need to use protecting groups. Katayama et al. utilize the ester hydrolysis reaction [Katayama, S.; Ae, N.; Nagata, R.; Tetrahedron Asymmetry, 9, 4295, (1998)] to prepare β-amino acid enantiomers with a quinoline skeleton; compounds also with a single chiral centre and containing a secondary >NH as amino function forming part of the ring. A similar method is disclosed in patent EP 1367129 Bl for the preparation of the S-enantiomer of the acyclic 3-amino-3-phenylpropionic acid, which contains also only one chiral centre. International application WO 2005/085462 Al describes a stereoselective enzymatic method, performed in buffer solution in order to synthesize enantiopure acyclic β2-amino acids (e.g. 3- -amino-2-benzylpropionic acid and ester) with a primary amino group and one chiral centre.
Lloyd et al. [Lloyd, R.C.; Lloyd, M.C.; Smith, M.E.B.; Holt, K.E.; Swift, J.P.; Keene, P.A.; Taylor, S.J.C.; McCague, R.; Tetrahedron 60, 717-728 (2004)] prepared N-Boc-protected cyclic γ-amino acid enantiomers via enzyme-catalyzed ester hydrolysis. They emphasize that in the case of compounds with more complex chirality and more accentuated rigidity (from conformational point of view), the elaboration of new enzymatic techniques might be necessary, since it is not always possible to use methods that worked well for α-amino acids for the preparation of enantiopure cyclic amino acids.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
In order to avoid the above-mentioned disadvantages which might occur in the course of preparation of cyclic β-amino acid and ester enantomers (such as the need for protecting groups, or restriction to the formation of the cis enantiomers only), and in order to develop an adequate enzymatic process that is well scalable and can be applied at an industrial scale, we have studied the enzyme-catalyzed hydrolyses of racemic or enantiomerically enriched cyclic cis and trans β-amino esters, and have surprisingly found that all of the corresponding cyclic β-amino acid and ester enantiomers can be prepared in said simple way with good enantiomeric purity.

The procedure of the invention, under optimized conditions, affords both enantiomers
(i.e. the one of the hydrolysed amino acid and the other of the unreacted amino ester) in high enantiomeric excess (>99%). The conversion is practically complete (starting from a racemate, a maximum conversion of 50% may be reached), and the products are obtained in good chemical yields (>45%). Further advantages of this method are the facts that the amino group need not necessarily be protected, and the products can be easily separated. The
obtained amino acid enantiomer precipitates from organic solvents, whereas it is soluble in water, so that it can be easily washed off from the surface of the enzyme: it can be extracted into water. The unreacted ester enantiomer can be isolated as an ester or, without any preliminary purification, it can be submitted to acidic hydrolysis to form the corresponding β- -amino acid enantiomer. This procedure can be successfully used for the industrial-scale resolution of both cis- and nww-substituted cyclic β-amino acids. From an industrial aspect, another important advantage of this method is the fact that the racemic starting cis- and trans- -β-amino acid esters can easily be prepared on a large scale [e.g. Fϋlδp, F.; Chem. Rev. 101, 2181 (2001) or by any other esterification method known in the art e.g. Houben-Weyl; Methoden der organischen Chemie Vol. VIII (1952) and Vol. 20 (2003) Thieme Verlag, Germany], and the enzymes can be re-used without a significant loss in activity.

Determination of enantiomeric excess (ee) for a mixture of (+) and (-) enantiomers [with composition given as the mol or mass fractions F(+) and F(-) (where F(+) + F(-) = 1)]: ee = | F(+) - F(-) |
(a) In order to determine the progress of the enzymatic reactions, the free NH2 group of the racemic starting methyl, ethyl or isopropyl cis- and /rαm-2-aminocycloalkane- and cycloalkene-l-carboxylate was acylated [acetic anhydride, 4-dimethylamino-pyridine and pyridine (10:90 m/m)] into the corresponding racemic N-acylated derivatives (derivatization), and the enantiomers were then separated by using a gas chromatograph equipped with a chiral column (CP-Chirasil-Dex CB (1), L-VaI (2)] [A: 120 0C for 5 min → 190 °C (rate of temperature rise 20 0C min"1, 140 kPa), B: 120 °C for 2 min → 190 °C (rate of temperature rise 10 0C min"1, 140 kPa), C: 120 °C for 15 min → 190 0C (rate of temperature rise 20 °C min"1, 140 kPa), D: 120 0C for 2 min → 190 °C (rate of temperature rise 20 °C min"1, 140 kPa)].
(b) The ee values for the β-amino acid enantiomers produced were determined with a gas chromatograph equipped with a chiral column (CP-Chirasil-Dex CB (1), L-VaI (2)] after double derivatization [in the first step, the COOH was esterifϊed with diazomethane; then, in the second step, the free NH2 group was acylated with acetic anhydride in the presence of 4- -dimethylaminopyridine and pyridine (10:90 m/m)]. In the case of the /rα«-f-2-(aminocyclohex- -4-ene)-l-carboxylic acid enantiomers, the double derivatization was performed for the corresponding saturated compound (after a catalytic reduction), as described [(b)]. The retention times are given in Table A.

The enantioselectivity (E), which shows how many times faster one enantiomer is transformed into the product than its antipode, is calculated as a function of the enantiomeric excesses for the substrate (ees) and the product (eep):
(E)-{ln[(l-ees)/(l+ees/eep)]}/{ln[(l+ees)/(l+ees/eep)]} The absolute configurations were proved by comparing the [α] values with the literature data.
