PATENTS ACT. 199 2 SPECIFICATION f t A PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF QUINOLINE CARBOXYLIC ACID DERIVATIVES KYORIN SEIYAKU KABUSHIKI KAISHA, a Japanese Company, of 2-5, Kanda Surugadai, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, Japan.
J> rt U ■* A This invention relates to a process for the preparation of useful antimicrobial agents, 6,8-difluoro-l-(2-fluoroethyl)-l,4-dihydro-4-oxo-7-(l-piperazinyl or 4-methyl-l-piperazinyl)-3-quinoline-carboxylic acid having the chemical structure (IV), O „ ^ cooh (IV) ch2ch2f wherein is a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, and more particularly, it relates to a process for the industrial manufacturing of antimicrobial agents represented by the formula (IV) having a high purity.
Such antimicrobial agents are disclosed in BE-A-887,574. The 1 0 preparation method disclosed therein comprises the following steps: (i) reaction between the ethyl ester of 6,7,8-trifluoro-l,4-dihydr"o-4-oxo-3-quinoline carboxylic acid and l-bromo-2-fluoroethane; (ii) hydrolysis to remove the ester group, which results in 6,7,8-' trif luoro-l-(2-fluoroethyl)-l ,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-quinoline carboxylic acid; (iii) reaction with piperazine or 1-methyl-piperazine to obtain the end product.
Said preparation method has several drawbacks, such as, among others, a relatively low yield (less than 20% based on the weight 20 of the ethyl 6,7,8-trifluoro-l,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-quinoline carboxylate starting material).
Example 15 of BE-A-887,574 teaches a method for preparing the hydrochloride salt of 6,8-difluoro-l,4-dihydro-4-oxo-7-(l-piperazinyl)-l-vinyl-3-quinoline-carboxylic acid, wherein the ethyl ester of 6,7,8-25 trifluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-quinoline carboxylic acid is reacted with 2-bromo ethanol to obtain the ethyl ester of 6,7,8-trifluoro-1,4-dihydro-l-(2-hydroxyethyl)-4-oxo-3-quinoline carboxylic acid, which is then reacted with piperazine to obtain the ethyl ester of 6,8-difluoro- 9 T f l,4-dihydro-l-(2-hydroxyethyl)-4-oxo-7-(l-piperazinyl)-3-quinoline carboxylic. acid; This compound is then converted into the ethyl ester of 7-(4-acetyl-l-piperazinyl)-6,8-difluoro-l,4-dihydro-l-(2-hydroxyethyl)-4-oxo-3-quinoline carboxylic acid, which in its turn is converted into 5 the ethyl ester of 7-(4-acetyl-l-piperazinyl)-l-(2-chloroethyl)-6,8-difluoro-l, 4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-quinoline carboxylic acid> Finally, this compound is subjected to a hydrolyzing treatment which removes the piperazine-nitrogen protecting acetyl group, removes the carboxylr protecting ester group, and converts the 2-chloroethyl group into 10 a vinyl group. In this process, all intermediates are ethyl esters and the free carboxylic group is only obtained in the last step.
This example therefore shows that, at least with a compound having a 2-hydroxyethyl substituent at the quinoline-nitrogen, reaction with piperazine may be performed before removal of the ester group. 1 5 The present invention provides a process for the preparatioa of a compound of the formula (IV), r *o.
(IV) wherein is a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, which comprises saponifying a compound of the formula (III), O (III) wherein is a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, which is prepared by the reaction of a compound of the formula (II), 3 coo c0hc 2 5 (I) jr CH2CH2F which is prepared by the reaction of a^compound of the formula (V), f F cooc2h5 (V) with 2-fluoroethyl tosylate.
The preparation method claimed herein comprises the following steps: TO (1) reaction between the ethyl ester of 6,7,8-trifluoro-l,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-quinoline .carboxylic acid and 2-fluoroethyl tosylate; (ii) reaction between the obtained ethyl ester of 6,7,8-trifluoro-l- (iii) hydrolysis to obtain the end product.
Surprisingly, by reacting the piperazine compound with an ethyl ester of 6,7,8-trifluoro-l-(2-fluoroethyl) 1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-quinoline carboxylic acid and hydrolyzing the reaction product to obtain the end product, the product yield is improved significantly 20 (above 60Z) while, simultaneously, shorter reaction times, lower reaction temperatures and smaller amounts of piperazine compound may be applied.
To put it concretely, a mixture of the starting material (I) (1 mol) and piperazine derivative (II) (1 to 4 mol) is heated in 25 a range from room temperature to 150°C, preferably 40 to 120°C, in the presence or absence of a solvent and/or base as an acceptor for the hydracid which is formed by the condensation. (2-fluoroethyl)-l,4-dihydro-4-o*o-3-quinoline carboxylic acid and piperazine or 1-methyl-piperazine; A base such as, for example, pyridine, picoline, triethylamine or the like, may be used in the reaction. These organic bases may 4 serve as the reaction. solvent. Benzene, toluene, dimethyl solfoxide, dimethylformamide, acetonitrile, tert-butanol or the like may be used as the reaction solvent.
Alkyl 6,8-dif luoro-l-(2-fluoroethyl)-l,4-dihydro-7-(4-methyl-l-piperazinyl)-4-oxo-3-quinolinecarboxylate (IIIrR^CH^) can also be prepared by treating alkyl 6,8-difluoro-l-(2-fluoroethyl)-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-7-(l-piperazinyl)-3-quinolinecarboxylate (III:R^=H) with formaldehyde and a reducing agent such as formic acid.
Therefore, the present invention.also provides a process for the preparation of a compound of the formula (IV-a), q cooh p CH2CH2F which comprises saponifying a compound of the formula (Ill-b) , 0 coor II CHj-H N T f ch2ch2f wherein R is a lower alkyl group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms, which is prepared by the reaction of a compound of the formula (Ill-a), 0 f v/\av coor (IV-a) (Ill-b) H H - (III-a) f ch2ch2f wherein R has the above-stated meanings, with formaldehyde and formic acid. 2o In the hydrolysis reaction using an acid, it is desirable that the intermediate substance (III) is heated in a mixture of mineral acid such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, and an organic solvent such as acetic acid. In the hydrolysis reaction using an alkali, the 25 intermediate substance (III) is heated in a diluted alkali metal hydroxide such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide in a range from AO to 100°C, preferably at 60 to 95°C.
The following examples serve to illustrate and 5 explain the present invention .
