Description
LOXOPROFEN POLYMORPHS AND PROCESS FOR PREPARATION OF THE SAME
TECHNICAL FIELD
The invention relates to novel crystalline forms of 2-[4-(2-Oxo-cyclopentylmethyl)-phenyl]- propionic acid (Formula II) and its sodium derivatives (Formula I) and the process for preparation thereof.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Loxoprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, chemically known as a-Methyl-4-[(2- oxocyclopentyl) methyl] benzeneacetic acid and is represented by the following structure of Formula II.
ormu a
United States Patent 4,161,538 discloses the 2-oxo-compound and method of preparation of the aforesaid compounds by hydrolyzing and decarboxylating 4-( 1 -alkoxycarbonyl-2- oxocycloalkan-l-ylmethyl)phenyl acetic acid ester derivative or (b) reacting p- halomethylphenylacetic acid ester derivative with an enamine of cycloalkanone and hydrolyzing in the presence of mineral acids to get the resulting product as an oil. The process disclosed in this US '538 involves multiple extraction and distillation techniques which makes this process tedious and not suitable for commercial scale.
Japanese Patent Publication No. S58-004699 discloses 2-substituted propionic acid having effects as anti-inflammatory agent, analgesic activity especially, 2-[4-(2-oxocyclopentan-l-yl methyl) phenyl] propionic acid, "Loxoprofen", is commercially available as an excellent analgesic drug.
Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. S62-161740 discloses the conventional preparation process includes the steps of (1) coupling reaction of 2-(p-halomethylphenyl) propionic acid ester with 2-cyclopentanone carboxylic acid ester in the presence of a base, and (2) decarboxylation and hydrolysis of ester with an acid.
In the above first coupling step, the hydrogen atom at a-position of 2-cyclopentanone carboxylic acid ester is taken off to give 2-(alkoxycarbonyl)-cyclopentenolate anion, which attacks the halomethyl group of 2-(p-halomethylphenyl) propionic acid ester to generate carbon-carbon bond so that the fundamental skeletal structure of Loxoprofen is formed.
Although above 2-(p-halomethylphenyl)propionic acid ester is relatively inexpensive, 2- cyclopentanone carboxylic acid ester is an expensive reagent. Furthermore, the reaction in the presence of base likely causes side reaction with halomethyl group of 2-(p-halomethyl)propionic acid ester.
PCT International Publication No. WO 97/47581 discloses a process for the preparation of Loxoprofen through carbonylation of p-chloromethylstyrene in the presence of a transition metal complex catalyst. The method comprises (i) carbonylation of p-chloromethylstyrene, (ii) coupling with cyclopentanone carboxylic acid ester, and (iii) decarboxylation and hydrolysis.
According to the above International Publication, p-chloromethylstyrene is liable to cause self- polymerization which also creates side products which finally affects the final product yield and purity. In addition it is required to use large quantity of solvents relative to substrate substance of p-chloromethylstyrene which is not advantageous in industrial practice.
Moreover the method disclosed in above International Publication cannot be said inexpensive because expensive cyclopentanone carboxylic acid alkyl ester is used as a starting material. All of the prior art references also do not report any crystalline polymorphs of Loxoprofen or its sodium derivatives.
Hence the most suitable and efficient method for producing crystalline forms of Loxoprofen or its derivatives has not yet been proposed. Hence, it would be desirable to provide a process for the preparation of Loxoprofen or its derivatives, which is simple, convenient and cost effective. New Crystalline forms of compounds would also be desirable for enhancing its stability & having consistent physical properties during manufacture & storage of the compound.
OBJECTIVE OF THE INVENTION
The main objective of the invention is to provide crystalline forms of Loxoprofen compound of Formula II referred as SI and S2.
Another object of the invention is o provide crystalline form of Loxoprofen sodium dihydrate compound of Formula I referred as S3. Yet another object of the invention is to provide a process for the preparation of SI, S2 and S3 crystalline forms.
Another object of the invention is to provide a simple, cost effective process for the preparation of Loxoprofen and its pharmaceutically acceptable crystalline forms using a mixture of mineral acid and organic acid for hydrolysis.
Further object of the invention is to provide the process for the preparation of Loxoprofen which avoids multiple extraction and distillation techniques. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The reaction sequence of the invention can also be represented by scheme
Formula III Formula II Formula I
Scheme I
wherein the mineral acid is selected from the group comprising hydrochloric acid, trifluoro acetic acid, HF more preferably hydrochloric acid. wherein the organic acid is selected from the group comprising acetic acid, formic acid, methane sulfonic acid, para toluene sulfonic acid more preferably acetic acid.
It has now surprisingly been found that the hydrolysis of unprotected keto-ester intermediate compound of Formula III with the mixture of mineral acid and organic acid results in Formula II followed by treatment with sodium hydroxide and water in the presence of alcoholic solvent results in formation of Formula I with higher yield. wherein the alcoholic solvent is selected from the group comprising methanol, ethanol, butanol isopropanol, diethylene glycol, isobutanol but more preferably methanol is used. This process is valuable as well as viable for the production of Loxoprofen with simple work up procedures to isolate the final product of Formula I with higher yield.

Example -3
Preparation of Crystalline Form S3 of 2-r4-(2-Oxo-cvclopentylmethyl)-phenyll-propionic acid sodium dihydrate (Formula I)
2-[4-(2-Oxo-cyclopentylmethyl)-phenyl]-propionic acid (lOOgm) was dissolved in Methanol (900 ml) at 30±5°C and stirred for 10±5min.To this, aqueous sodium hydroxide (16.2 gm) solution was added at 30±5°C and stirred for 15±5min. The reaction mass was heated to 60±5°C and maintained for l.Ohrs 45min±15min. Reaction mass was cooled to 30±5°C and filtered through filtrate membrane. The filtrate was distilled out under vacuum (NLT 700mmHg) at
NMT 45°C to get the thick mass and cooled to 30±5°C. To this crude product, Methyl -tert-butyl ether (500 ml) was added and maintained for 7.0hrs±10min. Reaction mass was filtered, washed and suck dried for 1.0hr±10min. The wet product was dried under vacuum at less than 40 °C to get crystalline 2-[4-(2-Oxo-cyclopentylmethyl)-phenyl]-propionic acid sodium salt dihydrate (110 gm, 89 % Molar yield , HPLC purity NLT 99.9 % wt/wt , any other single max impurity NMT 0.05 % wt/wt )
