5 TECHNICAL FIELD
The present disclosure is in the field of pharmaceutical and chemical sciences. The present disclosure relates to polymorphic form of pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) and/or its salts represented by formula I
10 Formula I
wherein "n" and "m" are selected from a group consisting of: (a) "n" = 3 , "m" = 0 and (h)
"n" = 1, "m" = 2; and
R3 is Na+.
15 The present disclosure also relates to a process for preparing polymorphic form of
compounds of formula I, a composition comprising polymorphic form of compounds of formula 1 and use thereof.
BACKGROUND AND PRIOR ART
Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is a natural product and is categorized as an essential
20 micronutrient and dietary supplement as it plays a critical role in the mitochondrial
biogenesis. PQQ is also known as methoxatin. Among many applications, primary uses of
PQQ are to protect mitochondria from oxidative stress, providing neuroprotection and cardioprotection. Common food sources of PQQ are parsley, green pepper, green tea, papaya, kiwi, milk and tofu. However, the available concentrations of PQQ in the food sources are only in picomolar (pM) to nanomolar (nM) levels. This necessitates the development of chemical processes which can produce large quantities of PQQ and its salts.
Few reports are known (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 103 (1981), 5599 -5600; He!v, Chem, Acta 76 (1993), 1667; WO2QQ6/102642A1 , IP 7413024 A) in literature to produce PQQ by chemical method as a free acid and its salts. However, the synthesis involves large number (9-10) of steps and the isolation of advanced intermediates and final product further involves tedious workup procedure.
Several research groups have reported different polymorphs of PQQ with or without metal salts and process for preparation of PQQ polymorphs. Polymorphism is the ability of a chemical/pharmaceutical compound in the solid state to exist in different crystalline forms having the same chemical composition with modified physical properties and varied biological applications. Identification of new polymorphic forms of therapeutically important chemical molecules is an important step in the drug development process.
Recently, Junichi EDAHIRO et al (US 201201 16087 A I) reported the defined crystal structure of PQQ di and tri sodium salts. However, the final isolation involved usage of organic solvents. Furthermore, alcoholic solvents are known to form adducts with PQQ.
Hence, it can be observed that there is an immense need for better and simpler synthetic routes for obtaining Pyrroioquinoline quinone (PQQ) salts. The present disclosure aims at overcoming the drawbacks of prior art and provide with stable crystalline forms of PQQ and its salts by improved, cost effective and scalable synthetic routes having minimal steps from advance intermediate.

The product obtained in example 4, was further dried at 25-30 °C to attain moisture content about 12%.
The below spectral data con'esponds to PQO with 12% moisture content.
Note: When water content is 12%, there is a new peak appeared at 2Θ of 1 1.139.

To 35L of 3.5% solution of sodium hydroxide, 4,5-dioxo-4,5-dihydro-lH-pyrrolo[2,3- f]quinoline-2,7,9-tricarboxylic acid trimetliyl ester (3.0 kg, 1 eq, 2.68 mol) is added at 25°C -30°C and stirred over a period of 16h. Completion of reaction is monitored by HPLC. Thereafter, the reaction mixture is acidified (pH: 3.0-3.5) with 12N hydrochloric acid over a period of l h to precipitate the precipitate the reaction mass. The precipitate is filtered at 20°C-30°C to obtain product [4,5-Dioxo-4,5-dihydro-l H-pyrrolo[2,3-f]quinolme-2,7,9- tricarboxylic acid disodium] as dark red solid (about 0.84 Kg, 84%).

To 15L of 3.5 % solution of sodium hydroxide, 4,5-dioxo-4,5-dihydro-l H-pyrrolo[2,3- f]quinoline-2,7,9-tricarboxylic acid trimethyl ester (1 .0 kg,l eq, 2.686 moles) is added at 25~30°C. The reaction mixture was heated to 25 to 30 °C over a period of 16 h Completion of reaction is raonitored by HPLC. Thereafter, the reaction mixture is acidified (pH: 3.0- 3.5) with 12N hydrochloric acid over a period of 3h under vigorous stirring to precipitate the reaction mass. The precipitate is filtered at 0-5 °C to obtain product 4,5-Dioxo-4,5- dihydro- lH-pyrrolo[2,3-f]quinoline-2,7,9-tricarboxylic acid disodium] as dark red solid (about 0.88 Kg, 88%).
