Definitions

  • Dilevalol 5-[(R)-1-hydroxy-2-[(R)-(1-methyl-3- phenylpropyl)amino]ethyl]salicylamide, is a recently developed antihypertensive agent. It is a compound having two asymmetric centers and thus its chemical synthesis is complex.
  • dilevalol is (R)-1-methyl-3-phenylpropylamine ((R)-MPPA), since this compound contains one of the two chiral centers of the dilevalol molecule.
  • the compound must, however, be available as a single enantiomer with high enantiomeric purity. Since racemic 1-methyl-3-phenylpropylamine is commercially available on a large scale, it would also be highly desirable to have a simple resolution process which would efficiently provide (R)-MPPA in such purity from the racemate.
  • One method used for resolving amines is the crystallization of the racemic amine with an optically active acid to form two diastereomeric salts, one of which is relatively insoluble.
  • R is -COR 1 , -CONR 2 R 3 or -SO 2 R 4 ;
  • R 1 is H, alkyl, substituted alkyl, alkoxy, substituted alkoxy, allyloxy, phenyl, substituted phenyl, phenyloxy, substituted phenyloxy, benzyl, substituted benzyl, benzyloxy, substituted benzyloxy or 2-furanylmethoxy;
  • R 2 and R 3 may be the same or different and each is independently selected from H, alkyl, substituted alkyl, phenyl, substituted phenyl, benzyl or substituted benzyl; and
  • R 4 is alkyl, substituted alkyl, phenyl, substituted phenyl, benzyl or substituted benzyl.
  • This process provides a number of distinct advantages. It may employ common polar solvents such as lower alkyl alcohols, e.g. ethanol, lower alkyl ketones, e.g., acetone, and/or water.
  • the (S)-MPPA which is separated in the mother liquor, is readily racemized and thus can be recycled for further production of (R)-MPPA.
  • the compound of formula I is easily cleaved from the salt of formula II and can also be recycled for further use in the production of (R)-MPPA.
  • an efficient, economic process is achieved for producing high purity (R)-MPPA which can then likewise be used to prepare high purity dilevalol.
  • N-formyl-L-phenylalanine is particularly preferred. This compound is easily prepared; it produces an N-formyl-L- phenylalanine/(R)-MPPA salt with high enantiomeric purity in two recrystallizations and in high yield above 70% based on available (R)-MPPA; water may be used as the recrystallization solvent and this is economically very advantageous; and N-formyl-L-phenylalanine is easily recovered in over 90% yield by alkaline cleavage of the salt, extraction of the (R)-MPPA from the alkaline phase and acidification of the alkaline phase. N-formyl-L- phenylalanine is chemically and optically stable in solutions at a pH of from 2 to 12.
  • the invention also involves compounds of formula II
  • alkyl including the alkyl portions of substituted alkyl, alkoxy, substituted alkoxy, alkanol, alkyl ketone, etc.
  • substituted alkyl including the substituted alkyl portion of substituted alkoxy
  • an alkyl group in which at least one H is replaced by a fluoro, chloro or bromo
  • substituted phenyl and substituted benzyl including the substituted phenyl and substituted benzyl portions of substituted phenyloxy and substituted benzyloxy
  • Suitable CONR 2 R 3 groups include CONH 2 , CONHCH 3 , CON(CH 3)2 , CON(CH 2 CH 3 ) 2 and CONH(t-butyl).
  • Suitable SO 2 R 4 groups include SO 2 CH 3 , SO 2 CH 2 CH 3 , SO 2 CH 2 CH 2 CH 3 , SO 2 Ph and SO 2 (p-tolyl).
  • the compounds of formula I either are known materials or may be prepared by methods well-known in the art.
  • the compounds of formula I wherein R is R 1 may be made by well-known acylation methods.
  • a selectively insoluble salt of formula II wherein R is as defined above.
  • the solvent employed may be any conventional polar solvent which dissolves the mixture of (R) and (S) amines and preferably also dissolves the compound of formula I.
  • the salt of formula II is selectively insoluble in the solvent with respect to the corresponding (S)-MPPA salt.
  • the compound of formula I could be employed as a slurry or suspension in contacting the solution, so long as the compound of formula II is less soluble than the compound of formula I and sufficient time is allowed for equilibrium to be obtained.
  • Suitable solvents include, for example, lower (C 1 -C 6 ) alkanols such as methanol, ethanol, propanol, isopropanol, etc.; lower alkyl (C 3 -C 6 ) ketones such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, etc.; dioxane; glyme (1,2-dimethoxyethane) and similar materials; water; or one or more combinations of such solvents.
  • Preferred solvents include lower alcohols especially ethanol, acetone, water or combinations thereof. With N-formyl-L-phenylalanine as the compound of formula I, water is the preferred solvent since it works very efficiently and effectively and is most economical with fewest disposal problems.
  • the treated solution may be heated, to achieve dissolution of the amine mixture and compound I, if desired.
  • the treated solution is normally cooled to a temperature effective to achieve selective separation of solid compound of formula II, usually to maximize separation and yield.
  • the solution is cooled slowly to increase the resolution of the amine salts. The final temperature selected will depend on the compound of formula I and solvent system employed.
  • the compound of formula I is employed in an amount effective to produce the desired solid form of the compound of formula II so that it may be selectively precipitated from its corresponding (S)-MPPA salt.
  • more or less compound of formula I may be employed, if desired.
  • Other acids including organic acids, e.g., acetic acid, or inorganic acids, may also be employed in the process of the invention to neutralize the remaining amines in the mixture, e.g., the (S)-MPPA, with such neutralized amine being soluble and thus separable from the precipitated compound of formula II.
  • the separation of the compound of formula II may be accomplished by any suitable means for separating solids from liquids, e.g., filtration, decantation, centrifugation, etc. Filtration is preferred.
  • the material separated from the mother liquor may be recrystallized by conventional means in the same or similar solvent system.
  • a mixture of 1 equivalent of racemic 1-methyl-3-phenylpropylamine with 0.5 to 1 equivalent of N-formyl-L-phenylalanine in 1 to 12 parts water, preferably 3 to 4 parts water may be heated to 50° to 60°C until a solution is obtained. If only 0.5 equivalent N-formyl-L-phenylalanine is used, 0.5 equivalent of an inorganic or organic acid such as hydrochloric, sulfuric, formic or acetic acid is preferably added. The solution is cooled slowly and stirred at 20°C for 1 to 24 hours.
  • the salt of formula II is slurried in 3 to 10 parts water, preferably 3 to 4 parts water, and heated to 50° to 60°C until a solution is obtained.
  • the solution is cooled to 20°C and stirred for 2 to 24 hours to provide a purified compound of formula II in about 70% yield.
  • the salt of formula II may be cleaved by reaction with strong acid or strong base, preferably strong base, by techniques well-known in the art. Not more than one equivalent of base should preferably be used. Suitable acids and bases include aqueous HCL, NaOH, KOH solutions, etc. For example, an N-formyl-L-phenylalanine salt of formula II may be slurried with 4 parts water and the pH adjusted to 12-13 with NaOH (one equivalent) to cleave the salt and form the free (R)-MPPA.
  • the free (R)-MPPA may be treated by conventional means for separation.
  • the free (R)-MPPA may be extracted with a suitable solvent, e.g., a water-immiscible solvent, such as methylene chloride, ethyl acetate, diethyl ether, t-butyl methylether, and in particular toluene.
  • a suitable solvent e.g., a water-immiscible solvent, such as methylene chloride, ethyl acetate, diethyl ether, t-butyl methylether, and in particular toluene.
  • the extract may then be evaporated and the (R)-MPPA distilled to give high purity R-MPPA, preferably in over 95% enantiomeric purity.
  • the mother liquors from the crystallizations contain (S)-MPPA in salt form.
  • Such (S)-MPPA can be separated from the mother liquor and subjected to racemization , e .g . , by the methods descr ibed in German Offenlegungsschrift 2 903 589.
  • One embodiment involves heating the (S)-MPPA with Raney nickel in an H 2 atmosphere.
  • the H 2 pressure is from about 10 to about 500 bar and the temperature is from about 50 to about 300°C.
  • the racemization is preferably carried out in the substantial absence of solvent.
  • the racemized material may then be employed (recycled) as a starting material in the process of the invention.
  • the mother liquors containing (S)-MPPA may be collected and their pH adjusted to pH 12-13.
  • the free (S)-MPPA thus formed may be extracted with any suitable organic solvent, e.g., methylene chloride, but preferably toluene.
  • enriched (S) -MPPA is obtained. This may be heated with 0.02 to 0.1 part water and wet Raney nickel in an autoclave for 10 to 20 hours at 100° to 200°C and at a pressure of 1034 kilo-pascals hydrogen (150 psi hydrogen) for a suitable time, usually for about 16 to 20 hours. Relatively pure. racemic l-methyl-3- phenylpropylamine is obtained after filtration of the catalyst and distillation of the amine.
  • the resolving compound of formula I is also easily recovered for further use.
  • the remaining liquid phases may be collected and concentrated by conventional means.
  • the pH may be adjusted to 2 with strong acid such as HCl.
  • the compound of formula II e.g., N-formyl-L-phenylalanine, may then be separated by, for example, filtration for further use in the process of the invention.
  • the mother liquor was concentrated to about 9 liters volume and by the salt cleavage procedure described below 741.7 g (49.7%) enriched (S)-MPPA and 853 g (44.1%) N-formyl-L-phenylalanine were recovered.
  • the free (R)-MPPA can be obtained from the salt IV by the same procedure as described in Example 1 above.
  • the salt V (146.3 g) from step a) above was recrystallized from 438 ml water by heating to 60°C and slow cooling to 3°C. After stirring for 24 hours at 0° to 5°C, the product was filtered off, washed twice with 65 ml cold water, and dried in a vacuum oven at 60°C to yield: 137.2 g (41% based on (R,S)-MPPA) white R-MPPA/N-formyl-L-phenylalanine salt (V), m.p. 136°-137°C; enantiomeric purity (MPPA): 96.8%R.
