Atrasentan is an experimental drug that is being studied for the treatment of various types of cancer,[1] including non-small cell lung cancer.[2] It is also being investigated as a therapy for diabetic kidney disease.

Atrasentan failed a phase 3 trial for prostate cancer in patients unresponsive to hormone therapy.[3] A second trial confirmed this finding.[4]

It is an endothelin receptor antagonist selective for subtype A (ETA). While other drugs of this type (sitaxentan, ambrisentan) exploit the vasoconstrictive properties of endothelin and are mainly used for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension, atrasentan blocks endothelin induced cell proliferation.

In April 2014, de Zeeuw et al. showed that 0.5 mg and 1.25 mg of atrasentan reduced urinary albumin by 35 and 38% respectively with modest side effects. Patients also had decreased home blood pressures (but no change in office readings) decrease total cholesterol and LDL. Patients in the 1.25 mg dose group had increased weight gain which was presumably due to increased edema and had to withdraw from the study more than the placebo or 0.5 mg dose group.[5] Reductions in proteinuria have been associated with beneficial patient outcomes in diabetic kidney disease with other interventions but is not an accepted end-point by the FDA.

The recently initiated SONAR trial[6] will determine if atrasentan reduces kidney failure in diabetic kidney disease.

Useful for treating nephropathy and chronic kidney disease associated with Type II diabetes. For a prior filing see WO2015006219 , claiming the stable solid composition in the form of a tablet comprising atrasentan and an anti-oxidant. AbbVie (following its spin-out from Abbott), is developing atrasentan (phase III; February 2015) for treating chronic kidney disease, including diabetic nephropathy.

The Michael reaction between 3,4-(methylenedioxy)-beta-nitrostyrene (I) and ethyl (4-methoxybenzoyl)acetate (II) in the presence of DBU gave adduct (III) as a mixture of isomers. Hydrogenation of this nitro ketone over Raney-Ni afforded, after spontaneous cyclization of the resulting amino ketone, the pyrroline (IV). Further reduction of the imine with NaBH3CN yielded a mixture of three pyrrolidine isomers. The desired trans-trans isomer (VI) could not be separated from the cis-trans isomer by column chromatography. However, the pure cis-cis compound (V) was isomerized to (VI) with NaOEt in refluxing EtOH. The protection of the amine as the tert-butyl carbamate with Boc2O, and saponification of the ester function provided the racemic acid (VII). Resolution of (VII) was achieved by conversion to the mixed anhydride (VIII) with pivaloyl chloride, followed by condensation with the lithium salt of (S)-4-benzyl-2-oxazolidinone (IX), and chromatographic separation of the resulting diastereomeric imides. Alternatively, racemic (VII) could be resolved by crystallization of its salt with (R)-a-methylbenzylamine. Removal of the Boc group from the appropriate isomer (X) with HCl in dioxan, followed by alkylation with N,N-dibutylbromoacetamide (XI) in the presence of i-Pr2NEt furnished the pyrrolidinylacetamide (XII). Finally, hydrolysis of the imide with lithium hydroperoxide provided the target acid.

Cyclization of 5-(2-nitrovinyl)-1,3-benzodioxole (I) with ethyl 2-(4-methoxybenzoyl)acetate (II) by means of DBU in THF gives the 4-nitrobutyrate (III), which is reduced with H2 over Ni in ethanol to the corresponding amine, which undergoes immediate cyclization to give the pyrroline carboxylate (IV). Reduction of pyrroline (IV) with NaCNBH3 in THF affords the expected pyrrolidine as a mixture of the (trans,trans)-(V), (cis,cis)-(VI) and (cis,trans)-(VII) isomers. Using chromatography on silica gel, only the (cis,cis)-isomer (VI) is separated and completely isomerized to the (trans,trans)-isomer (V) by treatment with NaOEt in refluxing ethanol. Pure (trans,trans)-isomer (V) or the remaining mixture of (trans,trans)-(V) and (cis,trans)-(VII) is N-protected with Boc2O in dichloromethane to provide a mixture of carbamates. Then hydrolysis of the esters is performed with NaOH in ethanol/water at room temperature, and under these conditions only the (trans,trans)-isomer hydrolyzes, giving the racemic (trans,trans)-acid (VIII). Unreacted (cis,trans)-ester (VII) is easily removed by conventional methods. Condensation of the racemic acid (VIII) with the lithium salt of the chiral oxazolidinone (IX) by means of pivaloyl chloride yields the corresponding amide as a diastereomeric mixture of (X) and (XI) that are separated by chromatography. The desired isomer (XI) is deprotected with HCl in dioxane to afford the chiral pyrrolidine (XII), which is condensed with 2-bromo-N,N-dibutylacetamide (XIII) by means of diisopropylamine in acetonitrile to give the adduct (XIV). Finally, the chiral auxiliary of (XIV) is eliminated by means of LiOOH (LiOH + H2O2) in water.

Condensation of 1,3-benzodioxole-5-carbaldehyde (XV) with nitromethane by means of ammonium acetate in HOAc gives the nitrostyrene (I), which is condensed with ethyl 2-(4-methoxybenzoyl)acetate (II) [obtained by reaction of acetophenone (XVI), diethyl carbonate and potassium tert-amyloxide] by means of NaOEt in THF to yield the 4-nitrobutyrate (III). Reductive cyclization of (III) with H2 over Raney-Ni in THF affords the (cis, cis)-pyrrolidine (VI), which is isomerized to the (trans,trans)-isomer (V) by means of NaOEt in refluxing ethanol. This racemic ester (V) is submitted to optical resolution with (S)-(+)-mandelic acid to provide the pure chiral ester (XVII). This compound is condensed with 2-bromo-N,N-dibutylacetamide (XIII) [obtained by reaction of 2-bromoacetyl bromide (XVIII) with dibutylamine (XIX) in toluene] by means of DIEA in acetonitrile to give the ethyl ester (XX), which is finally hydrolyzed with NaOH in hot ethanol.

Condensation of ketoester (I) with nitrovinyl benzodioxole (II) in the presence of 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene gave adduct (III). Hydrogenation of the nitro group of (III) over Raney Nickel with concomitant cyclization yielded dihydropyrrole (IV). Further reduction of (IV) with sodium cyanoborohydride provided a mixture of diastereomeric pyrrolidines. Chromatographic separation removed the cis,cis isomer, affording a mixture of trans,trans and cis,trans products (V). N-Alkylation of the pyrrolidine (V) with N,N-dibutyl bromoacetamide (VI) furnished (VIIa-b). Finally, selective hydrolysis of the ester group from the trans,trans isomer produced a mixture of cis,trans ester (VIII) and the target trans,trans acid, which were readily separated by fractional extraction.

Reaction of 2-(1,3-dioxol-5-yl)acetic acid (XXI) with pivaloyl chloride and TEA gives the corresponding anhydride (XXII), which is condensed with the chiral oxazolidinone (XXIII) by means of n-BuLi in THF to yield the amide (XXIV). Condensation of (XXIV) with 2-bromoacetic acid tert-butyl ester (XXV) by means of NaHMDS in THF affords the adduct (XXVI). Elimination of the chiral auxiliary of (XXVI) by means of LiOOH in THF/water provides the chiral succinic acid hemiester (XXVII) (93% ee), which is selectively reduced with BH3璗HF complex to give the 4-hydroxysuccinate (XXVIII). Reaction of succinate (XXVIII) with 4-chlorophenylsulfonyl chloride, TEA and DMAP in dichloromethane yields the sulfonate (XXIX), which is condensed with 4-methoxybenzaldoxime (XXX) by means of Cs2CO3 in hot acetonitrile to afford the oxime ether (XXXI). Transesterification of the tert-butyl ester of (XXXI) with trimethyl orthoformate and p-toluenesulfonic acid in hot methanol provides the methyl ester (XXXII), which is cyclized by means of trimethylsilyl triflate and tributylamine in dichloroethane to afford a 9:1 diastereomeric mixture of perhydro-1,2-oxazines (XXXIII) and (XXXIV) which is easily separated. The reductive N-O-bond cleavage of the major oxazine diastereomer (XXXIII) by means of Zn/HOAc or H2 over Pd/C gives the trisubstituted 4-aminobutanol (XXXV), which is cyclized by means of CBr4, PPh3 and TEA to yield chiral pyrrolidine (XXXVI) (4). Finally, pyrrolidine (XXXVI) is alkylated with N,N-dibutyl-2-bromoacetamide (XIII) followed by ester hydrolysis as before.

New TB Drug Enters Trials Neglected Diseases: Milestone comes despite waning pharma interest


TBA-354

New TB Drug Enters Trials

Neglected Diseases: Milestone comes despite waning pharma interest
chemical and eng news
Volume 93 Issue 8 | p. 5 | News of The Week
Issue Date: February 23, 2015 | Web Date: February 19, 2015

For the first time in six years, a new tuberculosis drug candidate has entered human clinical trials. Supported by the nonprofit Global Alliance for TB Drug Development, Phase I testing of TBA-354 began on Feb. 19.

TBA-354 is a nitroimidazole, a class of drugs effective against drug-resistant TB. The compound arose from a collaboration among the TB Alliance and researchers at New Zealand’s University of Auckland and the University of Illinois, Chicago, to find a next-generation nitroimidazole with more potent bactericidal activity and more favorable pharmacokinetic properties

TBA-354 is a potent anti-tuberculosis compound; maintains activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv isogenic monoresistant strains and clinical drug-sensitive and drug-resistant isolates.

TBA-354

Nitroimidazoles represent a promising new class of anti-tubercular agents with potential for the treatment of drug sensitive and drug resistant disease. Two first generation compounds (PA-824 and OPC67683) are currently in clinical development. To maximize the potential of this class for tuberculosis (TB), we conducted a medicinal chemistry program to identify a next generation nitroimidazole. Ultimately, we selected TBA-354 [(S)-2-nitro-6-((6-(4-trifluoromethoxy)phenyl)pyridine-3-yl)methoxy)-6,7-dihydro-5H-imidazo[2,1-b][1,3]oxazine] for in-depth profiling and preclinical development.
TBA-354 is more potent than PA-824 against M. tuberculosis in vitro, and against acute and established murine TB. This potency advantage is maintained on dosing as monotherapy in the initial and continuation phases of treatment, and when administered in combination with moxifloxacin and pyrazinamide. TBA-354 possesses a favorable pharmacokinetic (PK) profile with good oral bioavailability and excellent exposures in preclinical species. Due to these combined advantages, predicted clinically therapeutic doses are once daily and low, differentiating TBA-354 as a next generation anti-tubercular nitroimidazole.

TBA-354 was discovered by the TB Alliance in partnership with the University of Auckland and the University of Illinois at Chicago. The TB Alliance is a not-for-profit product development partnership (PDP) that operates like a biopharmaceutical company. The medicinal chemistry that led to discovery of TBA-354 was conducted at the Auckland Society for Cancer Research Center at University of Auckland and the biology was conducted at the University of Illinois at Chicago. Further in-depth profiling of the compound was led by the TB Alliance in collaboration with Johns Hopkins University, University of Illinois at Chicago and RTI International. Financial support for this project was provided by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and UK Aid. The work was presented at ICAAC 2012 in San Francisco on Sept 10th 2012.

TBA-354’s excellent efficacy and pharmacokinetic profile make it a promising candidate to deliver superior bactericidal results from a small daily pill. The evidence of TBA-354’s effectiveness was found in animal models of TB, which, while often predictive, have their limitations. Clinical trials are needed to evaluate TBA-354’s effectiveness against TB in patients. Before proceeding to clinical trials, the safety and tolerability of TBA-354 must be evaluated; these toxicology and safety pharmacology studies are underway and will provide more information concerning the potential of this compound.

One of the major challenges of TB treatment, as well as drivers of drug-resistance remains the length and complexity of current treatment. Defeating the TB pandemic will require new drugs that shorten and simplify treatment. Given the disproportionate skew of the TB burden in the developing world, all new TB treatments must also be inexpensive enough to facilitate scale-up. As the most potent anti-tubercular nitroimidazole under development to date, TBA-354 offers great promise in many ways. Its potency may enable the reduction of length, cost, and side-effects of TB treatment. It is compatible with commonly used AIDS medications in ways that some currently used TB treatments are not. Further, nitroimadzoles have already proven combinable with other experimental TB drugs to form novel treatments regimens with the potential to cure both drug-sensitive and MDR-TB.

TBA-354 belongs to the nitroimadazole class. Other drugs from this class have exhibited promising activity against TB bacteria in the lab and in clinical trials — two of the most advanced new TB drug candidates (PA-824and delamanid) belong to this class. Having shown greater potency compared to PA-824 and an improved pharmacokinetic profile compared to delamanid, along with other promising properties, TBA-354 offers the potential to shorten and simplify TB treatment further than therapies currently under clinical development. Its increased potency against TB could also reduce the cost, pill size, frequency and/or side effects of treatment with a nitroimidazole by achieving comparable efficacy with less drug amount. Importantly, because it belongs to a novel class of drugs, TBA-354 projects to be effective in treating both drug-sensitive and drug-resistant TB.

TBA-354 emerged from studies designed to identify a next generation nitroimidazole for TB

• It is the first new TB drug candidate to begin a Phase 1 clinical trial since 2009

• 1.5 million people die each year from TB, and more than nine million were diagnosed with the disease

FEB 2015 NEW YORK — The Global Alliance for TB Drug Development (TB Alliance) has commenced the first human trial of a new tuberculosis (TB) drug candidate, designated TBA-354, the not for profit organization announced Wednesday..

It is the first new TB drug candidate to begin a Phase 1 clinical trial since 2009.

The World Health Organization reported that 1.5 million people die each year from TB, and more than nine million were diagnosed with the disease. The lack of short, simple, and effective treatments is a significant obstacle to TB control.

Owing to lack of economic incentive to develop new tools, there are not enough promising drugs in the pipeline, which could hinder efforts to develop the appropriate treatments needed to combat the TB epidemic.

“There is a critical gap of new compounds for TB,” said Mel Spigelman, MD, President and CEO of TB Alliance.

“The advancement of TBA-354 into clinical testing is a major milestone, not only because of the potential it shows for improving TB treatment, but because it is the first new TB drug candidate to begin a Phase 1 clinical trial in six years.”

TBA-354 emerged from studies designed to identify a next generation nitroimidazole for TB. It comes from the nitroimidazole class of chemicals, known for being effective against drug-sensitive and drug-resistant tuberculosis.

The class also includes the experimental TB drug pretomanid (formerly PA-824), which is being tested as a component of other novel regimens in multiple clinical trials.

TB Alliance conducted the studies in collaboration with the University of Auckland and University of Illinois-Chicago. Once identified, TB Alliance further advanced TBA-354 through pre-clinical development and is now the sponsor of the Phase 1 study

“Our chemistry team has worked on this since 2006 when the TB Alliance approached us to help with this project,” said Professor Bill Denny, director of the Auckland Cancer Society Research Centre and a Principal Investigator of the Maurice Wilkins Centre at the University of Auckland. “We made several hundred compounds, from which TBA-354 was selected for clinical development in 2011.”

“It’s very pleasing for us to see this drug go all the way through to Phase one clinical trial. It’s a validation of our work designing this compound to create a new and improved drug for the treatment of tuberculosis,” stated Denny in a statement.

In preclinical studies, TBA-354 demonstrated more potent anti-bactericidal and sterilizing activity compared to pretomanid. Recruitment is under way to enroll nearly 50 U.S. volunteers for the randomized, double-blind Phase 1 trial, which will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and dosing of TBA-354.

In late 2012 a promising New Zealand compound targeting treatment-resistant tuberculosis (TB) was selected as a drug candidate by international non-profit drug developer the Global Alliance for TB Drug Development (TB Alliance).

New drug candidate TBA-354 was designed by scientists from the Auckland Cancer Society Research Centre (ACSRC) and Maurice Wilkins Centre in partnership with the TB Alliance and University of Illinois at Chicago. The TB Alliance expects to complete preclinical studies by early 2013, and then seek permission from the US Food and Drug Administration to begin human trials.

TB is second only to HIV/AIDS as the greatest infectious killer worldwide. While most cases and deaths occur in low and middle income countries, it is a major health concern in the Asia-Pacific region. Treatment regimens are complex, lengthy and challenging to follow and the disease is developing resistance to current antibiotics. If a new drug proves more effective than current treatments it may reduce the duration, cost and side effects of treatment.

Laboratory studies to date have been very promising, with TBA-354 proving much more potent and broad-spectrum than PA-824, the first-generation compound it was designed to improve upon. TBA-354 and PA-824 are members of the first new class of drugs developed for TB in nearly fifty years and the first designed to attack the persistent form.

the TB Alliance contracted the New Zealand scientists to develop second-generation compounds to overcome some of its known limitations. The New Zealanders optimised each part of the drug, and in the process developed a new method of synthesis that will simplify and reduce the cost of producing drugs of this class.

“TBA-354 is an improved, second-generation version of PA-824,” says Professor Bill Denny,
ACSRC Co-Director and a Maurice Wilkins Centre principal investigator. “It is much more
potent than PA-824, longer lasting, and has greater activity against resistant strains. Recent
trials show that PA-824 can dramatically shorten the treatment period for TB, and it’s
encouraging that in TBA-354 we have a compound that is clearly superior to it.”

“This has been an excellent and productive international collaboration, across groups with
different skills, where we have learned much that we can apply in future,” says Associate
Professor Brian Palmer of the ACSRC and Maurice Wilkins Centre, who led the project’s
chemistry team of Drs Adrian Blaser, Iveta Kmentova, Hamish Sutherland and Andrew
Thompson.

“New Zealand has an outstanding reputation in drug discovery and it’s exciting to see the
ACSRC’s expertise in cancer drug development being applied to the fight against one of
the most devastating infectious diseases in the world,” says Centre Director Professor
Rod Dunbar.

History

Silodosin received its first marketing approval in Japan in May 2006 under the tradename Urief, which is jointly marketed by Kissei Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. and Daiichi Sankyo Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.

Kissei licensed the US, Canadian, and Mexican rights for silodosin to Watson Pharmaceuticals, Inc. in 2004.

On February 12, 2008, Watson announced that the New Drug Application submitted to the United States Food and Drug Administration for silodosin has been accepted for filing. FDA approved this drug on October 9, 2008.[1] Silodosin is marketed under the trade names Rapaflo in the US and Silodyx in Europe.[2] and Rapilif in India (Ipca Urosciences)

Pharmacology

Since silodosin has high affinity for the α1A adrenergic receptor, it causes practically no orthostatic hypotension (in contrast to other α1 blockers). On the other side, the high selectivity seems to cause more problems with ejaculation.[3]

As α1A adrenoceptor antagonists are being investigated as a means to male birth control due to their ability to inhibit ejaculation but not orgasm, a trial with 15 male volunteers was conducted. While silodosin was completely efficacious in preventing the release of semen in all subjects, 12 out of the 15 patients reported mild discomfort upon orgasm. The men also reported the psychosexual side effect of being strongly dissatisfied by their lack of ejaculation.[4]

Silodosin is commercially available under the tradenames RAPAFLO® or

UROPvEC as a capsule formulation for oral use containing 4 mg or 8 mg of the drug. The capsules are to be taken orally once daily for the treatment of the signs and symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia. US 5,387,603 and EP 0 600 675 disclose silodosin as a therapeutic agent for the treatment for dysurea associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia. The molecular structure of silodosin (XXV) is shown below.

(XXV)

The synthesis of silodosin is relatively complex and requires a sequence of multiple steps. A key intermediate compound in the synthesis of silodosin is the optically active amine compound represented by the general formula R-Y:

1

wherein, R represents a protecting group and R represents a cyano (CN) or carbamoyl (CONH2) group. The intermediate compound R-Y bears the asymmetric carbon atom that imparts the optical activity to silodosin. Therefore, it is important to obtain the compound R-Y with high optical purity, because according to the methods reported in the state of the art the optical purity of the compound R-Y determines the optical purity of the final product silodosin.

JP 2001-199956 discloses a process for the preparation of a compound of formula R-Y, wherein l-(3-benzoyloxypropyl)-7-cyano-5-(2-oxopropyl)-2,3- dihydroindole or the corresponding 7-carbamoyl derivative is reacted with an optically active amine, namely L-2-phenylglycinol or L-l-phenylethanamine, to afford an imine compound of formula III as depicted in the below scheme 1. Scheme l . JP 2001-199956

R1 = COPh; R2 = CN or CONH2; R3 = H or OH a = 1. cat. deprotection

2. frational crystallization with L-tartaric acid

b = 1. chromatographic separation

2. cat. deprotection

The optically active imine III is subjected to catalytic hydrogenation using platinum(IV) oxide as a catalyst affording the diastereomers IV in a ratio of 3.8:1. The chiral auxiliary II is subsequently removed by catalytic hydrogenation using 10% palladium on carbon, i. e. under the typical conditions which lead to the cleavage and removal of benzylic protecting groups from nitrogen or oxygen atoms. The catalytic deprotection reaction affords the desired intermediate compound R-Y with an optical purity corresponding to the ratio of the diasteromers obtained in the previous step, i. e. the ratio of compound R-Y to S-Y is approximately 3.8: 1, which corresponds to an optical purity of approximately 58.3% enantiomeric excess (e.e.).

In order to increase the optical purity of the intermediate R-Y JP 2001-199956 suggests to conduct a fractional crystallization of the desired enantiomer with L-tartaric acid. After a series of fractional crystallizations the compound R-Y is obtained with an optical purity of 97.6% enantiomeric excess. Alternatively, the diastereomers of the compound of formula IV are separated using chromatographic techniques as column chromatography on silicagel. The pure diastereomer R-TV affords the desired enantiomer R-Y with an optical purity of 100% e.e. after removal of the chiral auxiliary II with hydrogen using 10% palladium on carbon as catalyst.

Another approach for the synthesis of the key intermediate compound R-Y is reported in JP 2002-265444. The route of synthesis disclosed in said document is depicted in the below scheme 2.

Scheme 2. JP 2002-265444

R1 = CH2Ph (Bn); R2 = CN The process involves the reaction of an enantiomeric mixture of the compound of formula VI with (I S, 2R)-2-benzylaminocyclohexane methanol (VII) to obtain a diastereomeric mixture containing the salt VIII. After a series of crystallizations the diastereomer VIII was obtained with an optical purity of 92.8% diastereomeric excess (d.e.). Subsequently, the salt VIII was treated with an acidic aqueous solution to release the acid R-Vl from the salt. After extraction from the aqueous solution with ethyl acetate the acid R-Vl is converted into its amide IX. The compound IX is finally subjected to a Hofmann type rearrangement reaction to obtain the desired intermediate compound R-V.

WO 201 1/030356 discloses a process for the preparation of the intermediate compound R-V, which avoids the resolution of the enantiomers of specific intermediate compounds using chiral auxiliaries or optically active bases. The route of synthesis described in WO 201 1/030356 starts from L-alanine (X), which is a naturally occurring optically active amino acid. The process described in

WO 2011/030356 is depicted in the below scheme 3.

R1 = trimethylsilyl (TMS), tert-butyl dimethylsilyl (TBDMS), allyl, benzyl, propargyl R2 = CN or CONH2 The amino acid is protected by the addition of ethyl chloroformate and subsequently activated by the addition of oxalyl chloride to afford i?-(N-ethoxycarbonyl)alanine as an acyl chloride (XI). Said acyl chloride is reacted with hydroxy protected l-(3- hydroxypropyl)-7-cyano-2,3-dihydroindole of formula XII in a Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction, which gives a compound of formula XIII. The oxo group in compound XIII is reduced to afford a compound of formula XIV that is subsequently subjected to a hydrolysis reaction to yield the key intermediate compound R-Y. It is an object of the present invention to provide a process for preparing silodosin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, which process affords the drug with high optical purity and with better yield compared to the prior art processes. This object is solved by the subject matter as defined in the claims.

Example 11. Silodosin (XXV)

A. The compound XXIV (18.0 g) was dissolved in methanol (150 ml) and 5% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (50 ml). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 h. The deprotected compound XXIV, i. e. a compound of formula XXIV with R = hydrogen and R = cyano, was extracted with toluene. Subsequently, a 10% lactic acid solution (25 ml) was added to the toluene phase in order to extract the product in the aqueous phase. The aqueous solution was separated and then basified. The deprotected product was finally extracted with ethyl acetate. Removal of the solvent gives the deprotected compound to XXIV (R1 = H and R2 = CN; 1 1.0 g) as an oily mass.

B. A mixture of compound XXIV (R1 = H and R2 – CN; 10.0 g), DMSO (80 ml) and 5N NaOH solution (9.0 ml) was stirred for 15 min. at room temperature. An aqueous H202 (30%) solution (1 1.0 ml) was added to the reaction mixture, which was stirred at room temperature for additional 2 h after completion of the addition. Water was added to the reaction mixture, the product was extracted with ethyl acetate, and the solvent was subsequently evaporated to afford 9.0 g crude silodosin.

So considering the commercial importance of Silodosin, the present invention focus on the preparation of pure Silodosin, and surprisingly found that the isolation of formula (IV) as tartrate salt helps to prepare Silodosin having less than 0.2 % of N,N dialkyl impurity and with good yield. None of the prior arts teaches or motivates isolation of tartaric acid addition salt of formula (IV). The preparation of Silodosin from tartrate salt of 3-{7-cyano-5-[(2R)- 2-({2-[2-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)phenoxy] ethyl}amino)propyl]-2,3-dihydro-lH- indol-l-yl} propyl benzoate (IV) or its freebase of the present invention has purity of greater than 99.6 %.

The present invention provides an improved and efficient process for the preparation of

It acts as an selective ai -adrenoceptor antagonist and is useful in the symptomatic treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Chemically it is known as l-(3-hydroxypropyl)-5-[(2R)- ( { 2-[2-[2-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)phenoxy]ethylamino) propyl] indoline-7-carboxamide.

Silodosin and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts are first disclosed in US patent 5,387,603. Synthetic approach for the production of silodosin, is described in patent ‘603 can be represented as shown below in scheme 1.

l

Scheme 1

As represented in scheme 1, silodosin is prepared by the reaction of l-acetyl-5-(2r aminopropyl)indoline-7-carbonitrile with 2-[2-(2,2,2-trifiuoroethoxy)phenoxy] ethyl methanesulfonate in the presence of sodium bicarbonate in ethanol to give l-acetyl-5-[2-[2-[2-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)phenoxy]ethylamino]propyl]indoline-7-carbonitrile, which upon reaction with di-tert-butyldicarbonate in methylene chloride produces protected acetyl indoline carbonitrile compound. Further deacetylation with sodium hydroxide in ethanol followed by treatment with acetic acid provides protected indoline carbonitrile compound, which upon hydrolysis using dimethyl sulfoxide, 30% hydrogen peroxide, sodium hydroxide and acetic acid gives protected indoline carboxamide, which upon further reaction with 2-tert-butyldimethylsiloxy)ethyl-4-nitrobenzene sulfonate in the presence of cis-dicyclohexano-18 crown-6 and potassium carbonate in dioxane gives protected (tert-butyl-dimethylsiloxy) ethyl indoline carbonitrile. Further treatment with tetrabutylammonium fluoride in tetrahydrofuran produces N-boc protected hydroxy deprotected propyl indoline carbonitrile, which under goes facile deprotection of boc group upon treatment with trifluoroacetic acid, in methylene chloride to yield silodosin. The complete process is very complex, make use of pyrophoric reagents

which are very difficult to handle in large scale and have many extra steps involving protection and depfotection. Further in US patent ‘603, concrete detail of preparation and purification of silodosin have not been reported. Furthermore, isolated silodosin is characterized using IR, NMR and specific rotation but the patent is silent on product appearance and crystalline nature. There are several processes known for the preparation of silodosin and its intermediates viz; in JP 4634560; JP 4921646; JP-2006- 188470; WO2011/124704 and WO2011/101864. In most of the inventions, silodosin is prepared by following reaction as shown in scheme 2. Major disadvantages of these processes are the formation of N,N dialkyl impurity, and other impurities which forms during the condensation of 3-[5-((2/?)-2-aminopropyl)-7-cyano-2,3-dihydro-lH-indol-l-yl]propyl benzoate or its salts like monotartrate with 2-[2-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)phenoxy] ethyl methanesulfonate. N,N dialkyl impurity forms in about 12-15% and may form due to reaction of one molecule of benzoate compound with two molecules of methanesulfonate compound. Removal of this impurity is not possible by simple purification

wherein R is benzoyl, benzyl, tetrahydropyranyl, 2-trimethylsilylethyl, dinitrophenyl, diphenyl methyl and the like

Scheme 2

US patent 7,834,193 discloses a process for preparation of silodosin with similar condensation of 3-[5-((2R)-2-arriinopropyl)-7-cyano-2,3-dihydro-lH-indol-l-yl]pfopyl benzoate or its salts like monotartrate with 2-[2-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)phenoxy]ethyl methanesulfonate, but 3-{7-cyano-5-[(2R)-2-({2-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)-phenoxy]ethyl}amino)propyl)-2,3-dihydro-lH-indol-l-yl)-propylbenzoate is purified by preparing monooxalate salt as shown below in

scheme 3. This patent specifically prepares monooxalate salt of 3- {7-cyano-5-[(2R)-2-({ 2- (2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)-phenoxy]ethyl }amino)propyl)-2,3-dihydro-lH-indol-l-yl)-propyl benzoate to remove N,N÷dialkyl impurity, but impurity has not been removed completely, only a certain % of it, has been removed.

Scheme 3

In PCT publication WO2012/131710, preparation of silodosin is described wherein improved processes for preparation of 3-[5-((2R)-2-aminopropyl)-7-cyano-2,3-dihydro-lH-indol-l- yl]propyl benzoate have been disclosed which is then converted to silodosin by condensation with 2-[2-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)phenoxy]ethyl methanesulfonate. In exemplified process, 3-[5- ((2R)-2-aminopropyl)-7-cyano-2,3-dihydro-lH-indol-l-yl]propyl benzoate is condensed with 2-[2-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)phenoxy]ethyl methanesulfonate and the resulting benzoate compound is hydrolyzed to give l-(3-hydroxy propyl)-5-[(2R)-2-({ 2-[2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy) phenoxy] ethyl }amino)propyr]-2,3-dihydro-lH-indol-7-carbonitrile.The carbonitrile compound is treated with oxalic acid to prepare its oxalate salt having purity greater than 99%, which is then hydrolyzed using a base to prepare free carbonitrile compound having purity greater than 99%, but this patent is silent about N, N- dialkyl impurity or its removal.

In PCT publication WO2012/147019, preparation of silodosin using 3-{ 7-cyano-5-[(2R)-2-({2- (2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)-phenoxy]ethyl}amino)propyl)-2,3-dihydro-lH-indol-l-yl)-propyl benzoate tartrate salt has been described as shown below in scheme 4.

Scheme 4

One other PCT publication WO2012/147107 describes preparation of silodosin by preparing hydrochloride and acetic acid salts of l-(3-hydroxypropyl)-5-[(2R)-2-({2-[2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy) phenoxy] ethyl }amino)propyl]-2,3-dihydro-lH-indol-7-carbonitrile to remove N,N dialkyl impurity. It has been observed that in exemplified process, wherein hydroxy compound namely l-(3-hydroxy propyl)-5-[(2R)-2-({2-[2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy) phenoxy] ethyl }amino)propyl]-2,3-dihydro-lH-indol-7-carbonitrile is purified by preparing its acetate salt to, remove the impurities but still N, N-dialkyl impurity remains in an amount of 0.6%, which is difficult to remove in next stage or require extra purifications.

Beside to use highly pure silodosin, use of a pure polymorphic form of API is an essential requirement of drug formulation, these both aspects when address jointly, and obtained silodosin can be converted to pure polymorph then only a complete solution of prior art problems can be achieved. Apart from above mentioned process patents/publications which aimed to prepare the pure silodosin, there are exist some polymorph patents/publications which also aims to prepare pure polymorphic form of silodosin.

Polymorphism is considered as one of the- most important solid-state property of drug substance, since different polymorph have different physiochemical and biological properties and in pharmaceutical chemistry it is often desired to obtain one particular form that is biologically active and also offers ease of handling during formulation. The available literature references related to polymorph of silodosin are incorporated herein.

Japanese patent 3331048 (publication No.H07-330726), discloses a process for purification of silodosin wherein silodosin is dissolved in ethyl acetate, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, solvent is distilled off and again dissolved in ethyl acetate at 70°C and crystallizes below room temperature. The resulting product is characterized by melting point, IR, NMR and specific rotation. Here also disclosure is silent about polymorphic form of product.

US patent publication US2006/0142374A1 (equivalent European patent EP1541554B 1) discloses polymorphic forms of silodosin including three crystalline polymorphic form of silodosin which are named as alpha (a), beta (β) and gamma (γ) and one amorphous form. These polymorphic forms have been characterized by X-ray powder diffraction pattern. In the patent publication, processes for the preparation of all these three crystalline forms have been disclosed. In. a given process, form alpha is prepared by dissolving crude silodosin in appropriate amount of ethyl acetate, ethyl formate, acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, acetonitrile, tetrahydrofuran or mixture of acetone and acetonitrile (1: 1), preferably ethyl acetate under heating, allowing to stand at room temperature to precipitate the crystal gradually. Similarly, form beta is prepared by dissolving crude silodosin in appropriate amount of methanol under heating, adding petroleum ether as a anti-solvent, crystal precipitation is ensured using vigorous stirring.

In a second process, to prepare the form beta, crude silodosin is dissolved in ethanol or 1-propanol and the reaction mass is cooled quickly. The crystalline form gamma is prepared by dissolving crude silodosin in appropriate amount of toluene or a mixture of acetonitrile and toluene (1:4) or ethyl acetate and toluene (1: 19), preferably in toluene, under heating, cooling to room temperature and allowing to precipitate gradually upon standing. In a second process to prepare form gamma, crude silodosin is dissolved in 2-propanol and the crystals are precipitated by adding an appropriate amount of toluene. In spite of disclosing three crystalline polymorphic forms, the patent publication prefers preparation and use of form alpha by highlighting the problems faced for preparation and use of other forms. It is disclosed that crystal form beta has manufacturing difficulties at industrial scale since precipitation occurs only when the nonpolar antisolvent is added to warm solution which leads to inconsistency in quality of crystals.

With the second process for preparation of form beta, desired level of yield and purity has not been achieved. Further, according to this publication, preparation of gamma form involves use of toluene which can not be removed completely from final product, because of its high boiling point and raises the problem of residual solvent. In the case of toluene, a class 2 solvent, its limits should not be more than 890 ppm. In the exemplified process, toluene content has not been disclosed, which clearly reflects that product was not suitable for pharmaceutical composition having problem of high residual content of toluene. Furthermore patent publication also states that all the three crystal forms donot have any difference in hygroscopicity and stabilities.

Thereafter, several patents/publications disclose preparation of polymorphic forms alpha and beta. For example a PCT publication WO2012/147107 discloses a process for preparation of beta form using isopropyl acetate and methyl isobutylketone. In another PCT publication WO2012/077138, preparation of alpha and beta forms are disclosed using various solvent , system. Similarly, in a Chinese patent CN102010359, crystalline form beta is prepared by dissolving the crude silodosin in alcoholic solvent by heating and the product is crystallized by cooling or by adding an antisolvent such as ketone or ether.

European patent EP2474529 discloses new polymorphic forms delta (δ) and eta (ε) of silodosin by using a solvent (tetrahydrofuran) and antisolvent (n-heptane, n-hexane, cyclohexane, tert butylmethyl ether).Further it discloses conversion of delta form to beta form by just heating the delta form at a particular temperature. The form delta can also be transformed into form eta by. slurrying in aqueous methanol. One new crystalline form designated as delta has also been disclosed in a Chinese patent publication CN102229558. An Indian patent application 478/MUM/2010, also discloses a new polymorphic form Zy-S which is prepared by using solvent such as esters, aromatic hydrocarbons, ketones, and alcohols.

All the above disclosures are silent about the preparation of gamma form of silodosin and only available disclosure reports that gamma form have problem of residual solvent, as impurity and is not suitable for pharmaceutical compositions.

 

Method C: l-(3-HydroxypropyI)-5-[(2R)-2-({2-[2,2,2-trifIuoroethoxy)phenoxy] ethyl} amino) propyl]-2,3-dihydro-lH-indol-7-carbonitrile tartrate (lOg) dissolved in dimethylsulfoxide (120 ml) and to this solution, was added 5 mol/L aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (15ml). To the reaction mixture, 30% hydrogen peroxide (5ml) was added and keeping the temperature below 25°C. The reaction mixture was stirred at 20-25°C, for 5 hours. To the reaction mixture, sodium sulfite (5g) dissolved in water (100ml) was added slowly. The reaction mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (1x200ml) and ethyl acetate layer was concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting product was dissolved in methanol and clear solution was filtered through micron filter paper of size 0.22 micron two times and filtrate was concentrated.The resulting compound was dissolved in toliiene (70ml) and isopropyl alcohol (7ml) at 50-55°C and the solution was cooled to 20-25°C, cyclohexane was added and stirred for further 4 hours, filtered and dried to give title compound having purity 99.86% and N,N-dialkyl impurity not detected by HPLC. Example 5: Preparation of pure Polymorphic Form Gamma (γ) of Silodosin

Silodosin (15g) having toluene content 1872 ppm, was micronized under air pressure. The micronized product was dried under vacuum at 55°C-60°C for 23.0 hours to afford pure polymorphic form gamma of silodosin having toluene content 460 ppm.

Example 6: Preparation of pure Polymorphic Form Gamma (γ) of Silodosin

Silodosin [having toluene content 1327 ppm] was micronized under air pressure. The micronized product was dried under vacuum at 55°C-60°C for 16 hours to afford pure polymorphic form gamma of silodosin having toluene content 350 ppm.

Example 7: Preparation of pure Polymorphic Form Gamma (γ) of Silodosin

Silodosin crude (3.0g) was dissolved in isopropanol (12ml) at 50°C and reaction mass was cooled to 35°C and seed of silodosin gamma form (O.lg) was added. Thereafter reaction mass was again cooled to 15-20°C and cyclohexane (30ml) was added to the reaction mass and stirred for further 0.5 hour. The resulting solid, thus obtained, was filtered, washed with cyclohexane and dried to afford pure polymorphic form gamma of silodosin having toluene content 34 ppm.
