Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for the preparation of N- methyl-aryloxy-propanamine derivatives of the Formula (I)
- Q and P independently represents a phenyl, naphtyl or thienyl group optionally substituted by a halogen, an alkyl group containing 1 to 6 carbon atoms, an alkoxy group containg an alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, which comprises demethylation of the N,N- dimethyl analogue thereof.
- the method according to the present invention can be advantageously used for the preparation of several pharmaceutically active ingredients widely used in the medicine for the treatment of diseases or disorders of the central nervous system including the compound (+)-(S)-N- methyl-3-(l-naphtyloxy)-3-(2-thienyl)-propyl-amin known by the International Nonproprietary Name (INN) duloxetine of the Formula
- SSNRI selective serotonine- norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors
- An economic and ecologically viable approch suitable for the synthesis of an N-methyl-propylamine derivative of the Formula (I) under industrial conditions involves the preparation of said structural unit starting from N-methyl-N-benzyl-propylamine analogue, which can be easily transformed into the product by removing the benzyl group by catalytic hydrogenation using palladium-charcoal catalyst.
- the process is simple, provides high yield and only toluene is produced as a by-product.
- the catalyst can be regenerated and recycled into the process, therefore minute amounts of byproducts are formed only and the environmental impact is low.
- the benzyl compound of the Formula (VII) can also be transformed into a different alkyl-carbamate, i.e. methyl- or ethyl-carbamate of the general Formulae (XXII) or (XXIII), wherein R represents the corresponding alkyl group, e.g. methyl or ethyl.
- R 1 C-O JU. and fluoxetine methylcarbamate thus obtained is subjected to alkaline hydrolysis in an aqueous medium.
- the yield of the two step mentioned above is 65%.
- fluoxetine of the Formula (III) can be practically produced starting from the alkyl- or arylcarbamate derivatives thereof,, since fluoxetine is a racemic compound, which is not sensitive to racemization or decomposition under the conditions of alkaline or acidic hydrolysis.
- the N-methyl- propylamin structural unit is usually synthesized from the N,N- dimethyl-propylamine unit.
- Such starting compound containing the N,N-dimethyl-propylamine structural unit is N,N-dimethyl-3-(l- naphtyloxy)-3-(2-thienyl)-propylamine of the Formula (IV).
- the N,N- dimethylamino group can be converted into a carbamate by reacting said group with alkyl or aryl chloroformates. In this way, for example, the aryl carbamate compound of the Formula (XII)
- XlI is obtained by reacting the compound of the Formula (IV) with phenyl chloroformate of the Formula (VIII), or the alkyl carbamate of the Formula (XIV)
- N,N-dimethylamine compound of the Formula (IV) reacts easily at a temperature between 40 and 100 0 C with alkyl- or aryl- chloroformates, which are available commercially. Practically, three chloroformic esters are used for the preparation of duloxetine.
- the hydrolysis is carried out at a temperature between 5 to 25 0 C with a chort reaction time in acidic-aqueous medium in the presence of zinc powder.
- Alkyl (methyl- and ethyl-) chloroformates of the Formulae (XII) and (XIV) used as intermediates in the second and third method for the preparation of duloxetine of the Formula (II), can be converted into said product by hydrolysis in aqueous-alkaline medium.
- racemization of the optically active duloxetine occurs at temperatures above 30 0 C.
- the rate of racemization increases with the temperature, therefore the reaction conditions for the hydrolysis of the carbamate has to be chosen to limit the reaction rate of racemization.
- the major disadvantage of the first method (Reaction A) using 2,2,2- trichloroethyl-chloroformate reagent resides in the fact that the conversion of the intermediate 2,2,2-trichloroethyl-carbamate compound of the Formula (XVII) into duloxetine of the Formula (II) can not be carried without using zinc.
- zinc salt and zinc hydroxide are formed, which are toxic and harmful for the environment. Removal of zinc ions from the waste water to meet the environmental limit concentration is very costly, therefore the method is not economically viable.
- a further disadvantage of the process resides in the fact that during the production of the carbamate of the Formula (XVII) from the compound of the Formula (IV), the etremely costly, toxic and unstable reagent, 2,2,2-trichloroethyl chloroformate of the Formula (XVIII)
- the crude carbamate is converted to duloxetine of the Formula (II) in the mixture of N,N-dimethyl formamide and formic acid in the presence of 2.0-2.5 molar equivalents of zinc at the temperature of 15 0 C.
- the reaction time is approximately 30 minues. Thereafter the reaction mixture is stirred overnight, the next day the duloxetine base is isolated, the solvents are removed and the crude product is purified by column chromatography, resulting in a product of oily appearence.
- the yield is 51%.
- Duloxetine base thus obtained is further purified by conversion into the oxalate salt thereof. No yield has been disclosed for the step of salt formation.
- a further difficulty resides in the removal of solvents from the waste water, since one of the solvents of the carbamate cleveage is N,N-dimethyl formamide, which is miscible with water. Said solvent can be removed from the aqeous waste by distillation, which further increases the costs of the production.
- a further problem during the use of Reaction B resides in the fact that during the alkaline hydrolysis of the carbamate group of the compound of the Formula (XII), a simultaneous side reaction may accur resulting in the ether hydrolysis of the naphtyl ether as well as partial racemization of the asymmetric carbon atom.
- the first reaction is indicated by the presence of 1-naphtol besides phenol in the crude product.
- the racemic phenylcarbamate of the Formula (XII) is stirred in 50-fold volume of propylene glycol in the presence of 5 M sodium hydroxide for 75 minutes at the temperature of 110 0 C, the reaction mixture is evaporated, diluted with water, the product is extracted with diethylether, the extract is dryed and evaporated. The residue is converted into oxalate salt, which is purified by two recrystallization. The yield of the reaction is 41.3 %.
- Hungarian Patent No. 206309 is not suitable for the preparation of optically active duloxetine, since due to the high reaction temperature (110 0 C), the proportion of the racemic product is high. Furthermore, the reaction has low yield and complicated purification involving the oxalate salt, which has to be converted later into a pharmaceutically acceptable hydrochloride salt.
- the solvent diethylether used during the isolation of the product is flammable and explosive, therefore its use need special precautions.
- the hydrolysis of the carbamate takes 18 hours at the temperature of 50 0C, while in the method of the above-mentioned International Patent Application, said reaction is performed in 12 hours at the temperature between 40 and 45 0 C.
- the yield of the crude duloxetine hydrochloride is only 42.6% in the process of WO2006/126213, calculated on the basis of the starting compound of the Formula (IV).
- the yield of the crude duloxetine hydrochloride is 73.3 %. No chemical or optical purity data are disclosed for duloxetine base, which is obtained as an oil.
- duloxetine hydrochloride has been repeated according to Example 3 of International Patent Application WO WO2006/126213 and we have found that there is a significant degree of racemization during the reaction (see Reference Example 1).
- the crude base was analyzed using enantioselective high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (enantioselective HPLC/MS), the crude base consisted of 85.4% by weight of (+)- duloxetine of the Formula (II), 2.4% of (-)-duloxetine, 4.5 % starting compound of the Formula (IV) and 5.2 % by weight phenol.
- duloxetine hydrochloride with the yield of 45.3 %, calculated for the basis of the amount of the compound of the Formula (IV).
- Duloxetine hydrochloride thus obtained contained 0.25 % phenol as well.
- the hydrochloride could be used for the manufacture of a medicament containing duloxetine hydrochloride only after several recrystallizations, whereby the phenol impurity is removed.
- Reaction B resides in that the method comprises several steps and carrying out said reactions takes long time.
- the compound of the Formula (IV) is dissolved in toluene, diisopropyl- ethyl amine is added, the reaction mixture is heated to a temperature between 50 and 55 0 C, phenyl chloroformate is added in 1.5 hours and the reaction mixture is stirred for one and a half hours. Subsequently the mixture is washed with 1 weight% sodium bicarbonate solution, 0.5 M aqueous hydrochloric acid solution and 1 weight% sodium bicarbonate solution and finally evaporated.
- the reaction time is 12 hours at a temperature between 40 and 45 0 C, while according to the method of Hungarian Patent No. 220673, said reaction time is 18 hours at the temperature of 50 0 C.
- the reaction mixture is diluted with water, the pH is adjusted to 5.7 by the addition of acetic acid, the aqeous-organic solution is washed with hexane. After separation, the organic layer is discarded and the aqueous layer is adjusted to pH 10.5.
- the product is extracted with ethylacetate, the solvent is evaporated, the residue is redissolved in ethylacetate, U2009/000063
- Reaction A is the most suitable for the preparation of a product having acceptable quality for manufacturing medicaments.
- the product obtained according to Reaction A has the highest optical and chemical purity.
- the reason for this is the low reaction temperature (15 0 C) and mild reaction conditions (anhydrous solvent, presence of an organic acid, short reaction time) applied to the cleveage of the 2,2,2-trichloroethyl carbamate.
- the carbamate of the Formula (XVII) can be cleaved in presence of zinc 2009/000063
- Reactions B and C the hydrolysis is performed at higher temperature between 40 and 110 0 C in the mixture of dimethyl sulfoxide and aqueous alkali metal hydroxide. Under these conditions, the product of the Formula (II) is converted at least partly to the racemate. Furthermore, there occurs the partial cleveage of the naphtyl ether bond, which is indicated by the presence of 1-naphtol in the reaction mixture. 1-naphtol can be detected in the reaction mixture even at the temperature of 25 0 C after a few minute reaction time using thin layer chromatography.
- the objective of our research was to provide a method for the preparation of N-methyl-aryloxy-propanamine derivatives of the Formula (I), especially for the production of duloxetine of the Formula (II), which does not require the use of heavy metals, such as zinc, which is environmentally safe and which can be carried out using mild reaction conditions, wherein the rate of racemization of chiral groups is low and involves the lowest possible amount of byproducts.
- the present invention is based on the surprising recognition that the compound of the general Formula (XXIV)
- S represents an alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, an aralkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms or an aryl group
- X represents halogen, yielding the formation of an aryl-oxy-propylamine derivative of the general Formula (I).
- the prior art is silent about the cleveage of the compounds of the Formulae (XII), (XIV) es (XVII) by reacting said compounds with a Grignard-reagent. No reference in the state of the art is known for the process of preparation of N- methylamino compound by converting the corresponding N,N- dimethylamino compound into an uretane and subsequently cleaving said uretane with a Grignard reagent.
- Q and P independently represents a phenyl, naphtyl or thienyl group substituted by a halogen, an alkyl group comprising 1 to 6 carbon atoms, an alkoxy group having an alkyl group comprising 1 to 6 carbon atoms, an alkenyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms or a trifluoromethyl group, which comprises reacting an uretane compound of the general Formula (XXIV), wherein the meaning of Q and P is the same as above, R represents an alkyl group havin 1 to 6 carbon atoms, an aryl group, an aralkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, a 2,2,2-trichloroethyl group at low to moderate temperature under mild reaction conditions with a Grignard reagent of the general Formula (XXV), wherein S represents an alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, an aralkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms or an ary
- a suitable Grignard reagent for the hydrolysis of the carbamate is widely used in industrial processes, inexpensive and commercially available.
- the most suitable reagents available in the commercial circulation are methyl-magnesium-chloride and methyl-magnesium- bromide, but the somewhat more expensive methyl-magnesium-iodide can also be used with satisfactory results.
- Transformation of the phenylcarbamate of the Formula (XII) into duloxetine of the Formula (II) can be carried out using methyl magnesium chloride, methyl magnesium bromide or methyl magnesium iodide. No detectable amount of racemic product was observed with any of the above-mentioned Grignard reagents. Similar results were obtained when the reactions of the carbamates of the Formula (XIV) and (XVII) were studied.
- the reaction can be carried out in any of the above-mentioned ether-type solvents or in an aprotic solvent, e.g. benzene, toluene.
- an aprotic solvent e.g. benzene, toluene.
- the reaction is completed in a few minutes even at the temperature of 0 0 C. No racemate is detectable under the reaction temperature of 50 0 C.
- the reaction can be carried out the most advantageously at room temperature, where it is completed almost instantly.
- the dried solution of the carbamate compound in toluene is mixed with 2 to 10 molar equivalents of the Grignard reagent and the product is isolated after a few minutes. Carbamates - similarly to esters or nitrile - react with two molar equivalents of the Grignard-reagent.
- the isolation of the product can be carried out by adding concentrated aqeuous ammonium chloride solution to the reaction mixture dropwise, separating the layers and evaporating the organic layer.
- the residue is dissolved in ethylacetate and using solution of hydrogen chloride in an organic solvent, e.g. in ethylacetate, a hydrochloride salt of duloxetine is produced and isolated by filtration.
- the chemical and optical purity of the crude duloxetine hydrochloride of the Formula (II) obtained in this process is similar or better than that of the starting compound of the Formula (IV).
