AN IMPROVED PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF BISPHOSPHONIC ACH)
Field of the invention: The present invention relates to an improved process for the preparation of bisphosphonic acid of formula (I) and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof,
Figure imgf000002_0001
Wherein R represents-NRiR.2,
Figure imgf000002_0002
n = 1,2,3,4 and 5, where Ri and R2 independently represents hydrogen,C I-6 alkyl.
Background of the invention:
The bisphosponates, which are salts of bisphosphonic acids, are an important class of medicaments useful in the treatment of bone disorders such as Paget's disease and osteoporosis. The sodium salt of risedronic acid, sodium salt of pamidronic acid, sodium salt of alendronic acid are the examples of pharmaceutically useful bisphosphonates.
The bisphosphonates are derived from the corresponding bisphosphonic acids. Several methods have been reported for preparing 1 -hydroxy- 1,1 -bisphosphonic acids. The syntheses are based on reacting a carboxylic acid with a mixture of phosphorous acid and one of the following phosphorous halides: phosphorous trichloride (PCl3), phosphorous oxychloride (POCl3), phosphorous pentachloride (PCl5), phosphorous tribromide (PBr3), phosphorous oxybromide (POBr3) or phosphorous pentabromide (PBr5), then quenching the reaction mixture with water or a nonoxidizing aqueous acid, followed by heating to hydrolyze the phosphorous intermediates to the final product.
The preparation of 3-amino-l-hydroxypropane-l,l-diphosphonic acid by reaction of beta.-alanine with a mixture of phosphorous trichloride and phosphorous acid in the presence or absence of an organic diluent is known from the German Patent
Specification No. 21 30 794. However, yellow-red by-products in the form of amorphous phosphorus-oxygen compounds of unknown structure are formed in this reaction and their separation, particularly in the presence of chlorobenzene, is very costly. Another factor to be considered in the large scale preparations is the dangerously high flammability of these phosphorus compounds
In U.S. Patent 4,407,761 the preparation of 4-amino-l-hydroxybutylidene-l,l- biphosphonic acid besides other bisphosphonic acids are described. When using this procedure, a semisolid sticky non-stirrable mass develops which prevents smooth heat transfer. The described process might be suitable for-laboratory preparations, however for industrial production it is not acceptable.
In U.S. Patent 4,705,651 a similar procedure is followed with different molar ratios and although some improvements were achieved, it is still unsuitable for industrial scale up.
U.S. Patents 4,922,007, 5,019,651 and J. Org. Chem. 1995, 60, 8310-8312 reported that the solidification problem has been solved by using methanesulfonic acid to solubilize the reaction components and keep them fluid throughout, by the use of methanesulfonic acid the fluidity problems were solved however another serious safety problem surfaced. A reaction between methanesulfonic acid and phosphorus trichloride is exothermic and at certain point becomes uncontrollable,
U.S. Patent 5,908,959 also describes the preparation of 4-amino-l- hydroxybutylidene-l,l-biphosphonic acid or salts.- thereof. The reaction is carried out in poly (alkylene glycol) as a diluent, which solubilizes the reaction components, however still when the reaction mixture is decomposed with water, an agitation problem occurs. The viscous reaction mixture must be transferred into the water. To facilitate this, viscosity problem is solved by the addition of toluene. When using toluene, a safety problem arises and also an additional separation step is needed.
The present invention solves the problems by allowing the reaction to remain stirrable using anisole as solvent, and making commerical manufacturing possible thus allowing complete conversion of the carboxylic acid providing excellent yields and purity of the formula (I).
Objectives of the invention: The main objective of the present invention is to provide an improved process using anisole as solvent for the preparation of compound of formula (I) and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof.
Another objective of the present invention is to provide a process for the preparation of compound of formula (I) and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, which would be easy to implement on commercial scale, which can avoid the use of hazardous chemicals like methane sulfonic acid, chloro benzene and toluene.
Still another objective of the present invention is to provide a process for the preparation of compound of formula (I) and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts in good yield and high purity.
Summary of the invention:

Example 1
Preparation of 4-atnino-l-hydroxybutylidene-l, 1-biphosphonic acid mono sodium salt trihydrate.
Step- (I)-Preparation of Alendronic acid
100 gm (0.97 mol) of 4-Aminobutyric acid (GABA), 1 19.3 gm (1.45 mol) of phosphorous acid and 600 ml of anisole are charged in a dry and nitrogen flushed 21t flask fitted a mechanical stirrer, a thermometer pocket, an addition funnel and a reflux condenser that circulated with chilled water. The mixture is heated upto 60-700C and then charged slowly phosphorous trichloride 333.0 gm (2.42 mol) under vigorous stirring in 40-45 minutes at 60-700C. The reaction mixture is heated to 100-1050C and stirred for 5 hrs until the HCl gas evaluation is completely stopped and then the mass is allowed to cool. The solvent is separated and water (400 ml) is added slowly under stirring. Heating and stirring started again and refluxed the mass for 5-6 hrs at 110- 1150C. It is then cooled to 28-30°C.The trapped solvent and aqueous phases are separated. The aqueous phase is cooled to 20-250C and pH of the solution is adjusted to 1.8 by using caustic lye solution. To this solution, methanol is added slowly to precipitate of the crude alendronic acid and filtered (230-250 gm). The crude alendronic acid obtained above is taken in a 1-lt flask equipped with mechanical stirrer, a reflux condenser and deminaralized water (500 ml) is charged in to it, heated the mixture to 700C under stirring and then the pH of the suspension is adjusted to 1.8 using cone, hydrochloric acid. The suspension is heated to 80-850C under stirring and stirred for 3-4 hrs and then cooled gradually to 28-300C in 2 hrs. The pH of the suspension is 1.7-2.0 and aged for lhr at 28-300C. The product is collected by filtration. The yield of alendronic acid after drying at 60-650C under vacuum until constant weight is 166.9 gm (~ 90%).
StepdD -Preparation of sodium salt as trihydrate:
100 gm of 4-amino-l-hydroxybutylidene-l, 1-biphosphonic acid is suspended in 500 ml of deinoised water with vigorous stirring at 30 to 70°C.The pH of the suspension is adjusted to 4.4-4.6 by using 30 %w/w aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide to form a clear solution. The clear solution is filtered through a filter medium to remove fine foreign particles if any and the filtered solution is aged overnight at 2- 4°C.
The product crystallized is filtered, washed with 50 ml cold deminaralized water and then dried to yield 105.3 gm of alendronate sodium trihydrate. The yield of the product on the basis of 4-amino butyric acid is 1.76w/w.
