Benfotiamine (rINN, or S-benzoylthiamine O-monophosphate) is a synthetic S-acyl derivative of thiamine (vitamin B1).
It has been licensed for use in Germany since 1993 under the trade name Milgamma. (Combinations with pyridoxine or cyanocobalamin are also sold under this name.) It is prescribed there for treating sciatica and other painful nerve conditions.[1]
It is marketed as a medicine and/or dietary supplement, depending on the respective Regulatory Authority.[citation needed]


Uses
Benfotiamine is primarily marketed as an antioxidant dietary supplement. In a clinical study with six patients, benfotiamine lowered AGE by 40%.[2]
Benfotiamine may be useful for the treatment of diabetic retinopathy, neuropathy, and nephropathy however “Most of the effects attributed to benfotiamine are extrapolated from in vitro and animal studies. Unfortunately apparent evidences from human studies are scarce and especially endpoint studies are missing. Therefore additional clinical studies are mandatory to explore the therapeutic potential of benfotiamine in both diabetic and non-diabetic pathological conditions”.[3] It is thought that treatment with benfotiamine leads to increased intracellular thiamine diphosphate levels,[3] a cofactor of transketolase. This enzyme directs advanced glycation and lipoxidation end products (AGE’s, ALE’s) substrates to the pentose phosphate pathway, thus reducing tissue AGEs.[4][5][6][7][8]


Pharmacology
After absorption, benfotiamine can be dephosphorylated by cells bearing an ecto-alkaline phosphatase to the lipid-soluble S-benzoylthiamine.[9] Benfotiamine should not be confused with allithiamine, a naturally occurring thiamine disulfide derivative with a distinct pharmacological profile.[10]

As a pharmaceutical agent
Thiamine derivatives such as thiamine monophosphate dihydrate and S-benzoyl thiamine monophosphate compounds and salts thereof are useful as therapeutics and nutrients. Further, some of the thiamine derivatives are known to be biochemically important compounds.
There are processes known where thiamine derivatives have been prepared by reacting thiamine with polyphosphoric acid derived from phosphoric acid; heating of the two gives a mixture of thiamine phosphate comprising thiamine 0- monophosphate, thiamine O-diphosphate, thiamine O-triphosphate and thiamine O-polyphosphate. Each polyphosphate may be isolated from the reaction mixture. However, the above prior process is commercially unpractical, because yields of the desired phosphates isolated are extremely poor.
In another process, orthophosphoric acid is used as phosphorylating agent to convert thiamine hydrochloride into thiamine monophosphate. The process demands heating acids like orthophosphoric acid which is considered to be highly unsafe up to 270° C. Moreover, this prior art process does not produce the desired product immediately after work up. The process requires 7 days to get all higher phosphates derivatives eq. Thiamine diphosphate (cocarboxylase) and thiamine triphosphate to convert into thiamine monophosphate. The prepared thiamine monophosphate dihydrate is converted into S-benzoyl thiamine monophosphate by reaction with benzoyl chloride or dibenzyl sulfide or Sodium benzoyl thiosulfate. Due to such drastic conditions the intermediate purity and in turn the product purity is extremely poor requiring series of purification steps.
In yet another process, compounds like P205 which are unsafe from operation point of view since it requires changing into orthophosphoric acid at considerably high temperature. This process gives the mixture of mono, di, tri and tetra phosphate derivatives of thiamine. The process provides that even after hydrolysis, the reaction mass contains only 61 -62% desired thiamine monophosphate dihydrate along with 31 -32 % cocarboxylase and 2-3 % thiamine triphosphate. Further, it requires their separation by means of techniques like Ion Exchange which is again troublesome and not advantageous from process point of view.
Thus, the processes known hitherto for the production of such thiamine derivatives such as thiamine monophosphate dihydrate and S-benzoyl thiamine monophosphate compounds and salts thereof have cost and/or lower yield with poor quality disadvantages. The prior art processes also suffer in that the workup of reaction mass is tedious which eventually increases the manufacturing cost.

The IUPAC name of Meloxicam is (3E)-3-[hydroxy-[(5-methyl-1,3-thiazol-2-yl)amino]methylidene]-2-methyl-1,1-dioxo-1λ6,2-benzothiazin-4-one. With the CAS registry number 71125-38-7, it is also named as 2H-1,2-Benzothiazine-3-carboxamide, 4-hydroxy-2-methyl-N-(5-methylthiazolyl)-, 1,1-dioxide.
Uses of Meloxicam: this chemical is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug with analgesic and fever reducer effects. And it inhibits cyclooxygenase that can be used as an anti-inflammatory. Additionally, it can be used for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis.
In Europe, where the product has been available since the early 1990s, it is also prescribed and licensed for other anti-inflammatory benefits including relief from both acute and chronic pain in dogs and cats. For many years, both injectable and oral (liquid and tablet) formulations of meloxicam have been licensed for use in dogs, and injectable ones for use in cats. In June 2007, a new oral version of Metacam was licensed in Europe for the long-term relief of pain in cats. As of June 2008, Meloxicam is registered for long term use in cats in Australia, New Zealand, and throughout Europe. ‘Metacam oral suspension 1.5 is not approved or recommended (according to the manufacture insert) for use in cats in the U.S.

Meloxicam is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) with analgesic and fever reducer effects. It is a derivative of oxicam, closely related to piroxicam, and falls in the enolic acid group of NSAIDs.[2] It was developed by Boehringer-Ingelheim. Meloxicam starts to relieve pain about 30–60 minutes after administration.[3]
Mechanism of action
Meloxicam blocks cyclooxygenase (COX), the enzyme responsible for converting arachidonic acid into prostaglandin H2—the first step in the synthesis of prostaglandins, which are mediators of inflammation. Meloxicam has been shown, especially at its low therapeutic doses, selectively to inhibit COX-2 over COX-1.[1]
Meloxicam concentrations in synovial fluid range from 40% to 50% of those in plasma. The free fraction in synovial fluid is 2.5 times higher than in plasma, due to the lower albumin content in synovial fluid as compared to plasma. The significance of this penetration is unknown,[2] but it may account for the fact that it performs exceptionally well in treatment of arthritis in animal models.[4]
Side effects
Meloxicam use can result in gastrointestinal toxicity and bleeding, headaches, rash, and very dark or black stool (a sign of intestinal bleeding). Like other NSAIDs, its use is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events such as heart attack and stroke.[5]It has fewer gastrointestinal side effects than diclofenac,[6] piroxicam,[7] naproxen,[8] and perhaps all other NSAIDs which are not COX-2 selective.[6] Although meloxicam does inhibit thromboxane A, it does not appear to do so at levels that would interfere withplatelet function.
A pooled analysis of randomized, controlled studies of meloxicam therapy of up to 60 days duration found that meloxicam was associated with a statistically significantly lower number of thromboembolic complications than the NSAID diclofenac (0.2% versus 0.8% respectively) but a similar incidence of thromboembolic events to naproxen and piroxicam.[9]
Potential serious cardiovascular side effects
Persons with hypertension, high cholesterol, or diabetes are at risk for cardiovascular side effects. Persons with family history of heart disease, heart attack or stroke must tell their treating physician as the potential for serious cardiovascular side effects is significant.[10][11]
Veterinary use
Meloxicam is also used in the veterinary field, most commonly in dogs and cats, but also sees off-label use in other animals such as cattle and exotics.[12][13] The U.S. Food and Drug Administration sent a Notice of Violation to the manufacturer for its promotional materials which included promotion of the drug for off-label use.[14] In the U.S. the drug is indicated for management of pain and inflammation associated with osteoarthritis in dogs only. In Europe, where the product has been available since the early 1990s,[citation needed] it is also prescribed and licensed for other anti-inflammatory benefits including relief from both acute and chronic pain in dogs. Side effects in animals are similar to those found in humans; the principal side effect is gastrointestinal irritation (vomiting, diarrhea and ulceration). Rarer but important side effects include liver and kidney toxicity.
Since 2003, the oral (liquid) formulations of meloxicam have been licensed in the U.S for use in dogs only,[15] with the January 2005 product insert specifically warning in bold-face type: “Do not use in cats.”[16] An injectable formulation for use in dogs was approved by the FDA in November 2003,[17] with a formulation for cats, for surgical use only, approved in October 2004.[18]
In the U.S., per the manufacturer’s clinical instructions as of July 2010, injectable meloxicam is indicated in operative use with felines as a single, one-time dose only, with specific and repeated warnings not to administer a second dose.[19] In June 2007, a new oral version of meloxicam was licensed in Europe for the long-term relief of pain in cats. As of June 2008, meloxicam is registered for long term use in cats in Australia, New Zealand, and throughout Europe. A peer-reviewed journal article cites feline overdose of NSAIDs, including meloxicam, as being a cause of severe kidney damage in cats.[20]
The pharmacokinetics of meloxicam have been investigated in koalas (Phascolarctos cinereus).[21]
Meloxicam has been investigated as an alternative to Diclofenac by the RSPB to prevent deaths of vultures.
Preparation of Meloxicam: this chemical can be prepared by Methyl 4-hydroxy-2-methyl-(2H)-1,2-benzothiazine-3-carboxylate-1,1-dioxide and 2-Amino-5-methylthiazole. The yield is 74 %.

MIANSERIN
Mianserin (brand names: Depnon (IN), Lantanon (ZA), Lerivon (AR, BE, CZ, PL, RU, SK), Lumin (AU), Norval (UK), Tolvon (AU, HK†, IE†,NZ, SG†), Tolmin (DK); where † indicates discontinued products) is a psychoactive drug of the tetracyclic antidepressant (TeCA) therapeutic family. It is classified as a noradrenergic and specific serotonergic antidepressant (NaSSA) and has antidepressant,anxiolytic (anti-anxiety), hypnotic (sedating), antiemetic (nausea and vomiting-attenuating), orexigenic (appetite-stimulating), andantihistamine effects.
It is not approved for use in the US, but its analogue, mirtazapine, is. Mianserin was the first antidepressant to reach the UK market that was less dangerous than the tricyclic antidepressants in overdose.[3]

Medical uses
When used for the treatment of depression, its efficacy appears comparable to that of amitriptyline, citalopram, clomipramine,dothiepin, doxepin, fluoxetine, flupenthixol, fluvoxamine, imipramine, moclobemide, nortriptyline, paroxetine, and trazodone.[1][4]Mianserin received TGA approval in May 1996.[5]
Similarly to its analogue, mirtazapine, mianserin has been tried as an augmentation strategy in treatment-resistant depression with some success.[6] Mianserin has been tried, similarly to mirtazapine, as an adjunct in schizophrenia and has been found to reduce negative and cognitive symptoms.[7][8][9]
Mianserin has demonstrated efficacy as a monotherapy for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease psychosis in an open-label clinical trial.[10]
Interactions
CYP2D6 inhibitors such as the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), quinidine, ritonavir, etc. would likely raise plasma levels of mianserin and hence could lead to mianserin toxicity. Conversely, CYP2D6 inducers would likely lead to reduced mianserin plasma concentrations and hence potentially diminish the therapeutic effects of mianserin.[1]
Withdrawal
Abrupt or rapid discontinuation of mianserin may provoke a withdrawal, the effects of which may include depression, anxiety, panic attacks,[14] decreased appetite or anorexia,insomnia, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting, and flu-like symptoms, such as allergies or pruritus, among others.
Pharmacology
Mianserin is an antagonist/inverse agonist of the H1, 5-HT1D, 5-HT2A, 5-HT2B, 5-HT2C, 5-HT3, 5-HT6, 5-HT7, α1-adrenergic, and α2-adrenergic receptors, and also inhibits thereuptake of norepinephrine.[16][17] As a high affinity H1 receptor inverse agonist, mianserin has strong antihistamine effects (sedation, weight gain, etc.). Contrarily, it has negligible affinity for the mACh receptors, and thus lacks anticholinergic properties. It was recently found to be a weak (Ki = 1.7 μM, EC50 = 0.53 μM) κ-opioid receptor partial agonist.[18]
In addition, mianserin also appears to be a potent antagonist of the neuronal octopamine receptor.[19] What implications this may have on mood are currently unknown, however octopamine has been implicated in the regulation of sleep, appetite and insulin production and therefore may theoretically contribute to the overall side effect profile of mianserin.[20][21]
Blockade of the H1 and α1-adrenergic receptors has sedative effects,[2] and also antagonism of the 5-HT2A and α1-adrenergic receptors inhibits activation of intracellularphospholipase C (PLC), which seems to be a common target for several different classes of antidepressants.[22] By antagonizing the somatodendritic and presynaptic α2-adrenergic receptors which function predominantly as inhibitory autoreceptors and heteroreceptors, mianserin disinhibits the release of norepinephrine, dopamine, serotonin, andacetylcholine in various areas of the brain and body.
Enantioselectivity
(S)-(+)-Mianserin is approximately 200–300 times more active than its enantiomer (R)-(−)-mianserin.

The title compound has been synthesized by several procedures. Acylation of 2-benzylaniline (I) by chloroacetyl chloride (II) gave chloroacetamide (III). Subsequent cyclization of amide (III) under Vilsmeier conditions furnished the dibenzoazepine (IV). Nucleophilic substitution of the chlorine atom of (IV) by methylamine led to amine (V). The imine function of (V) was reduced with either LiAlH4 or NaBH4 to the diamine (VI), which was further converted into the fused diketopiperazine (VII) upon heating with diethyl oxalate. The amide groups of (VII) were then reduced by means of borane in THF, yielding the target tetracyclic diamine, which was finally isolated as the corresponding hydrochloride salt……US 3534041
SYN 2

In a further procedure, styrene oxide (XV) was condensed with 2-(benzylamino)ethanol (XXVIII) to give amino diol (XXIX). After chlorination of (XXIX) using SOCl2 and DMAP, dichloro derivative (XXX) was condensed with 2-aminobenzyl alcohol (X) yielding piperazine (XXXI). Cyclization of (XXXI) in hot sulfuric acid afforded the tetracyclic compound (XXXII). The N-benzyl group of (XXXII) was then removed by treatment with butyl chloroformate producing carbamate (XXXIII), which was further hydrolyzed and decarboxylated to (XXXIV) under basic conditions. Finally, methylation of the secondary amine (XXXIV) was performed by reductive alkylation with formaldehyde either in the presence of formic acid under Leuckart-Wallach conditions or by catalytic hydrogenation

SYN 3

In a different method, reaction of styrene oxide (XV) with methylamine provided amino alcohol (XVI), which was further condensed with ethylene oxide (XVII) to afford amino diol (XVIII). Alternatively, diol (XVIII) was prepared by a more direct procedure by condensation of epoxide (XV) with 2-(methylamino)ethanol (XIX). Chlorination of (XVIII) employing SOCl2 yielded the dichloro derivative (XX), which was subsequently condensed with 2-aminobenzyl alcohol (X) leading to piperazine (XXI). Cyclization of (XXI) to the title compound was accomplished by treatment with hot polyphosphoric acid. Optionally, alcohol (XXI) was converted to chloride (XXII), which was then cyclized in the presence of AlCl3. In a related method, alcohol (XXI) was esterified with AcOH, and the resultant acetate ester (XXIII) was then cyclized in the presence of polyphosphoric acid……US 4217452

The key intermediate (XXI) was also prepared by several related procedures. Chlorination of aminoalcohol (XVI) gave chloro amine (XXIV), which was condensed with 2-aminobenzyl alcohol (X) to afford diamine (XXV). Then, alkylation of diamine (XXV) with dibromoethane (XIII) in hot pyridine gave rise to the target piperazine (XXI). Alternatively, diamine (XXV) was condensed with ethyl chloroacetate or with diethyl oxalate to produce the mono- or dioxopiperazines (XXVII) and (XXVI), respectively, which were then reduced to (XXI) by means of LiAlH4. Cyclization of alcohol (XXI) to the title compound was achieved by treatment with concentrated sulfuric acid

Treatment of alpha-chlorophenylacetyl chloride (VIII) with methylamine provided the corresponding chloro amide (IX), which was subsequently condensed with 2-aminobenzyl alcohol (X) to afford amino alcohol (XI). Cyclization of (XI) in the presence of AlCl3 led to the dibenzoazepine (XII). This was converted to the tetracyclic compound (XIV) by reaction with dibromoethane (XIII) in the presence of Na2CO3. Reduction of the amide carbonyl group of (XIV) by means of LiAlH4 furnished the title compound. In a related strategy, amide (XII) was initially reduced to diamine (VI) by using LiAlH4. Subsequent condensation of (VI) with dibromoethane (XIII) led to the target tetracyclic derivative

NIZATIDINE
Nizatidine is a histamine H2 receptor antagonist that inhibits stomach acid production, and is commonly used in the treatment of peptic ulcer disease and gastroesophageal reflux disease. It was developed by Eli Lilly and is marketed under the brand names Tazac and Axid.
Clinical use
Nizatidine is used to treat duodenal ulcers, gastric ulcers, and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD/GORD), and to prevent stress ulcers.[1]
Adverse effects
Side effects are uncommon, usually minor, and include diarrhea, constipation, fatigue, drowsiness, headache, and muscle aches.[1]
History and development
Nizatidine was developed by Eli Lilly, and was first marketed in 1987. It is considered to be equipotent with ranitidine and differs by the substitution of a thiazole ring in place of the furan ring in ranitidine. In September 2000, Eli Lilly announced they would sell the sales and marketing rights for Axid to Reliant Pharmaceuticals.[2] Subsequently, Reliant developed the oral solution of Axid, marketing this in 2004, after gaining approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).[3] However, a year later, they sold rights of the Axid Oral Solution (including the issued patent[4] protecting the product) to Braintree Laboratories.[5]
Nizatidine proved to be the last new histamine H2 receptor antagonist introduced prior to the advent of proton pump inhibitors.’
Nizatidine, the systematic chemical name of which is N-[2-[[[2-[ imemylammo)memyl]-4-tl iazolyl]memyl]mio]e yl]–N’- methyl-2-nitro-l,l-ethenecliamine, which has the formula (I).This compound is a histamine H2-receptor antagonist which is useful as anti- ulcer agents capable of inmbiting gastric acid secretion in mammals.
United States Patent No. 4,375,547; 4587344, 4777260; 4,904,792 and 5334725 discloses Nizatidine and other related products. The synthesis of nizatidine disclosed in US patent No. 4,904,792 involves a multi-step process. The first step of the process comprises reacting dimethylaminotmoacetamide hydrochloride with ethyl bromopyruvate to obtain 2-(dinιethylaminon ethyl)-4-thiazolecarboxylate. Reduction of this 4- tbiazolecarboxylate derivative with lithium triethylborohydride gives 2-
(<-Umethylaminoπιethyl)-4-tI-ύazolenιethanol, which is then converted into 4- (2-ammoetϊhyl)ti omethyl-2-d by reacting with
2-aminoethanethiol hydrochloride (cysteamine hydrochloride). This 2- ό-imetihylan-ιinoπιethylthiazol derivative is then converted into Nizatidine by reacting .with N-met-hyl-l-methyltHo-2-mt-coet-hyleneamine in the presence of an acid United States Patent No. 4,382,090 describes a method to prepare 4-
(2-aminoethyl)tMome1_hyl-2-din ethylaminon etihyltl iazol by fusing 4- cmoronιe yl-2-d- nethylaminonιet-hylthiazole with cysteamine hydrochloride at above 100 °C.
United States Patent No. 4,468,517 described a method to prepare 4- cldoronιethyl-2-<-ιimethylaminon et-hylt-lιiazole. The method described in this patent involved reaction of dimet-hylaminotmoacetamide hydrochloride with 1,3-dichloroacetone in haloalkane (1,2-dichloroethane) as a solvent to obta 4-cHoromethyl^-hydroxy-2-dimet^ This 2-thiazoline derivative is then dehydrated with a dehydrating agent like PC13, PBr3, SOCl2, POCl3 etc., to get 4-chloromethyl-2- din etihyl-in monietihylthiazole.
European Patent Application EP 0,515,121 and EP 0,960,880 describe the process for the preparation of 2-(dim.et-hylarninomethyl)-4- thiazolemethanol. The process consists of reacting (-Umethylaminothioacetamide hydrochloride with 1,3-dichloroacetone in toluene to get 4-chlorometiιyl-4-hyαioxy-2-d-methylaminomethyl-2- thiazoline, which is then reacted with alkali metal base in an inert solvent such as toluene to get 2-(dimethylam-m.omethyl)-4-thiazolemethanol.
The methods described in United States Patent No. 4,468,517 for the synthesis of 4-chloromethyl-4-hy( oxy-2-dimethyl-ui-momethyl-2- thiazoline, requires complete evaporation of the solvent 1,2-dichloroethane to get the crude product; it is then washed with ethyl acetate to obtain a pure product. Evaporation of the solvent to complete dryness is an inconvenient and inappropriate operation in large-scale manufacturing. Such evapprations in large-scale operations would produce the solids as lumps; further washing such lumps with solvents would be ineffective due to improper -mixing of -the solid -with solvent. The method described in EP 0,515,121 and EP 0,960,880 for the synthesis of 4-cHorometlιyl-4-hyc oxy*-2-α_im requires isolation of the product from the reaction mixture by precipitation of the product from the mother liquor by the addition of petroleum ether. The crude product obtained by the precipitation is then subjected to an additional purification step by crystallisation from toluene.
A number of procedures are described for the preparation of dimethylammotmoacetamide. Examples are Japanese Patent No. JP 62,273,948, JP 62,273,949, JP 02,264,755 and Org. Prep. Proced. Int., 1992, 24, P.66-7. All the procedures described in the literature- or the preparation of dirnethylaminotitioacetamide from dimethylam oacetomtrile involve the use of hydrogen sulfide under pressure in the presence of promoters or catalysts. The disadvantage with the use of hydrogen sulfide is the difficulty it poses in handling commercial quantities, as it is a very toxic gas. The object of the present invention is to provide an improved manufactxiring process for 4-chloromethyl-4-hydr xy-2- di–netihylam omethyl-2-tibiazoline..

SYN2
The cyclization of dimethylaminothioacetamide (I) with ethyl bromopyruvate (II) in refluxing ethanol gives ethyl 2-(dimethylaminomethyl)-4-thiazolecarboxylate (III), which is reduced with lithium triethyl borohydride in THF yielding 2-(dimethylaminomethyl)-4-thiazolemethanol (IV). The condensation of (IV) with 2-aminoethanethiol (V) by means of 48% HBr affords 2-(dimethylaminomethyl)-4-(2-aminoethylthiomethyl)thiazole (VI), which is finally condensed with 1-(methylthio)-2-nitro-N-methylethyleneamine (VII) in water.

Example No: 1 Preparation of dirnethylaniinothioacetaniide hydrochloride Into water (3000 ml), phosphorus pentasulfi.de (1302 g; 2.93 mol) and dimethylam oacetonitrile (1000 g; 11.88 mol) are added one after another at 10°C. The mixture is then slowly warmed to 70°C and maintained for 3 hrs to complete the reaction. The reaction mixture is then cooled to 20°C and sodiu hydroxide (53% w/w, 2200 g, 29.15 mol) is added into it below 20°C.

VASICINE, (peganine)
Vasicine (peganine) is a quinazoline alkaloid. It is the active compound of Justicia adhatoda, after which the chemical is named.
Vasicine has been compared to theophylline both in vitro and in vivo.[1] It has also been studied in combination with the related alkaloid vasicinone. Both the alkaloids in combination (1:1) showed pronounced bronchodilatory activity in vivo and in vitro.[2] Both alkaloids are also respiratory stimulants.[2] Vasicine has a cardiac–depressant effect, while vasicinone is a weak cardiac stimulant; the effect can be normalized by combining the alkaloids.[2][3] Vasicine is reported to have a uterine stimulant effect.[3]
Vasicine
Synonym Peganine
Biological Sources It is obtained from the leaves of Adhatoda vasica (L.) Nees (Acanthaceae) (Malabar Nut, Adotodai, Paveltia); and the seeds of Peganum harmala L. (Rutaceae) (Harmel, Syrian Rue, African Rue).
Chemical Structure
1, 2, 3, 9-Tetrahydropyrrolo [2, 1-b] quinazoline-3-ol; (C11H12N2O).
Isolation It is isolated from the leaves of Adhatoda vasica* and also from the seeds of Peganum harmala** by adopting the standard methods of isolation described earlier in this chapter.
Characteristic Features
dl-Form: 1. It is obtained as needles from ethanol having mp 210°C.
- It sublimes on being subjected to high vacuum.
- It is soluble in acetone, alcohol, chloroform; and slightly soluble in water, ether and
benzene.
l-Form: 1. It is obtained as needles from ethanol with mp 212°C.
- Its specific rotation [α ]D14-2540(C = 2.4 in CHCl3); [α ]D14–14 62° (C = 2.4 in ethanol).
Note: In dilute HCl it is obtained as its dextrorotatory form.
Identification Tests
- Hydrochloride dihydrate derivative is obtained as needles having mp 208°C (dry).
- Hydroiodide dihydrate derivative is formed as needles with mp 195°C (dry).
- Methiodide derivative is obtained as needles from methanol having mp 187°C.
- Acetyl vasicine derivative (C11H11N2O COCH3) is formed as crystals having mp 123°C and bp0.01 230-240°C.
Uses
- It is mostly used as an expectorant and bronchodilator.
- It also shows oxytocic properties very similar to those exhibited by oxytocin and methyl ergometrine.
- Vasicine also shows abortifacient action which is due to the release of prostaglandins.
Biosynthesis of Vasicine Various studies in Peganum harmala have evidently revealed vasicine (peganine) to be derived from the anthranilic acid, while the remaining portion of the structure comprising of a pyrrolidine ring provided by ornithine. The probable mechanism of vasicine skeleton may be explained by virtue of the nucleophilic attack from the N-atom present in anthranilate upon the pyrrolidinium cation, ultimately followed by amide formation. However, interestingly this pathway is not being adopted in Justicia adhatoda.

Ilaprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) used in the treatment of dyspepsia, peptic ulcer disease, gastroesophageal reflux disease and duodenal ulcer.
Ilaprazole is chemically known as 2-[[(4-methoxy-3-methyl-2-pyridinyl)methyl]sulfinyl]-6-(lH-pyrrol-l-yl)-lH-benzimidazole
Il-Yang Il Yang Pharmaceutical Company, Ltd.………. Innovator
launched in 2008 by Livzon in China


Ilaprazole (trade name Noltec) is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) used in the treatment of dyspepsia, peptic ulcer disease (PUD),gastroesophageal reflux disease (GORD/GERD) and duodenal ulcer. It is available in strengths of 5, 10, and 20 mg.
Clinical studies show that ilaprazole is at least as potent a PPI as omeprazole when taken in equivalent doses. Studies also showed that ilaprazole significantly prevented the development of reflux oesophagitis.
Ilaprazole is developed by Il-Yang Pharmaceutical (Korea), and is still under clinical trials with US FDA. It has launched in Korea and China for the treatment of gastric ulcer, duodenal ulcer, gastroesophageal reflux disease and erosive esophagitis.[1]
Ilaprazole is a substituted benzimidazole proton pump inhibitor first launched in 2008 by Livzon in China for the oral treatment of peptic ulcers. The compound was also being evaluated in early clinical trials at Il-Yang for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), but no recent development has been reported. In 2009, development of the compound was discontinued by Takeda Pharmaceuticals North America for the treatment of esophagitis due to a phase II study which did not meet its predefined endpoint.
The drug has been shown to significantly inhibit acute gastric erosion induced by indomethacin, ethanol or stress, acute mepirizole induced duodenal ulcers, and to accelerate the healing of acetic acid induced chronic ulcers through a H+/K+-ATPase inhibition mechanism.
In September 2005, TAP (a joint venture established between Abbott and Takeda which was dissolved in 2008) and Il-Yang signed a license agreement, granting the latter development and distribution rights to the drug candidate worldwide outside of Korea and China.
Il-Yang Pharm. Co., Ltd., Korea has developed a Novel PPI, i.e. racemic 5-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)- 2[[(3-methyl-4-methoxy-2-Pyridyl)-methyl]sulfinyl]-benzimidaziole[1,2], which shows superior anti-ulcer effects as compared to Omeprazole in the treatment of GORD(gastro-oesophageal reflux diseases), gastric ulcer and duodenal ulcer (KR 179,401 and US 5,703,097). Gastric and duodenal ulcers are a gastrointestinal disease caused by various factors such as mental stress, dietary habit, intake of irritable food, and the like. The direct cause of peptic ulcers is damage to the gastric membrane due to excessive secretion of gastric acid.
Since their introduction in the late 1980s, proton pump inhibitors have improved the treatment of various acid-related gastrointestinal (GI) disorders, including gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcer disease, Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome (ZES), ulcers, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)-induced gastropathy. GERD encompasses three disease categories: non-erosive reflux disease (NERD), erosive esophagitis, and Barrett’s esophagus. ZES is caused by a gastrin-secreting tumor of the pancreas that stimulates the acid-secreting cells of the stomach to maximal activity. Proton pump inhibitors have also be used to treat ulcers such as duodenal, gastric, and NSAID-associated gastric/duodenal ulcers.
As antisecretory drugs, proton pump inhibitors are currently the recommended first line therapy, being viewed as more effective than other treatments. In general, proton pump inhibitors offer superior gastric acid suppression over histamine H2-receptor blockers. The use of proton pump inhibitors by patients who suffer from gastric acid-related disorders is generally believed to have led to an increase in their quality of life, productivity, and overall well being.
Proton pump inhibitors are also used to treat extra-esophageal manifestations of GERD (asthma, hoarseness, chronic cough, non-cardiac chest pain), and with antibiotics for Helicobacter pylori eradication. The goals of GERD management are threefold: prompt and sustained symptom control, healing of the injured esophageal mucosa and prevention of GERD-related complications (including stricture Formation, Barrett’s esophagus, and/or adenocarcinoma). Pharmacological therapy with proton pump inhibitors Forms the basis of both acute and long-term management of GERD. Proton pump inhibitors provide effective relief of symptoms and healing of the esophagitis, as well as sustaining long-term remission.
Although therapeutic efficacy is the primary concern for a therapeutic agent, the solid-state form, as well as the salt form, and the properties unique to the particular form of a drug candidate are often equally important to its development. Each solid state form (crystalline or amorphous) of a drug candidate can have different physical and chemical properties, for example, solubility, stability, or the ability to be reproduced. These properties can impact the ultimate pharmaceutical dosage form, the optimization of manufacturing processes, and absorption in the body. Moreover, finding the most adequate form for further drug development can reduce the term and the cost of that development.
Ilaprazole, 2[[(4-methoxy-3-methyl-2-pyridinyl)-methyl]sulfinyl]-5-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl) 1H-Benzimidazole, is a substituted benzimidazole that acts as a proton pump inhibitor. Ilaprazole selectively and irreversibly inhibits gastric acid secretion through inhibition of the hydrogen-potassium adenosine triphosphatase (H+K+-ATPase) (proton pump) mechanism. Inhibition of the proton pump occurs by formation of disulfide covalent bonds with accessible cysteines on the enzyme. Ilaprazole has a prolonged duration of action that persists after their elimination from plasma. See, for example, U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,703,097 and 6,280,773, which are incorporated herein by reference.
Ilaprazole has the empirical formula C19H18N4O2S having a molecular weight of 366.44 daltons. Ilaprazole is a chiral molecule and has the following structural Formula (I):
Ilaprazole, like all proton pump inhibitors, possesses the unique feature of a chiral sulfur atom, S*. This can be depicted as follows with the lone pair of electrons on the chiral sulfur atom occupying one position in each stereoisomer, as shown below:
The absolute structure and absolute confirmation of (−)-S-ilaprazole was made through single crystal structure determination and is shown below. See Example 7 of co-pending U.S. application Ser. No. 11/966,808 of Brackett et al. entitled, “Solid State Forms of Enantiopure Ilaprazole” filed Dec. 28, 2007, herein incorporated by reference in its entirety.
Thus, its complimentary enantiomer is (+)-R-ilaprazole, as shown below.

3-Methoxy-2-methylpyridine (VII), prepared by methylation of 2-methyl-3-pyridinol (VI), was converted to the N-oxide (VIII) employing peracetic acid. Nitration of the pyridine N-oxide (VIII) with concentrated nitric acid gave the 4-nitro derivative (IX). Subsequent displacement of the nitro group of (IX) by sodium methoxide led to the dimethoxypyridine N-oxide (X). Rearrangement of the N-oxide group of (X) in hot acetic anhydride produced the acetoxymethyl pyridine (XI). After basic hydrolysis of the acetate ester (XI), the resultant hydroxymethyl pyridine (XII) was chlorinated by SOCl2, yielding chloride (XIII). Condensation between mercapto benzimidazole (V) and the chloromethyl pyridine (XIII) in ethanolic NaOH led to the sulfide adduct (XIV). This was finally oxidized to the desired sulfoxide by using meta-chloroperbenzoic acid in CH2Cl2. The oxidation of sulfide (XIV) has also been performed employing sodium perborate, sodium percarbonate in the presence of ammonium molybdate, or tert-butyl hydroperoxide in the presence of vanadyl acetylacetonate.

The synthesis of IY-81149 can be obtained according to Scheme 22875502a. The oxidation of 2,3-lutidine (I) with hydrogen peroxide in acetic acid affords 2,3-dimethylpyridine-N-oxide (II), which is treated with sulfuric acid and nitric acid to give the corresponding nitro compound (III). The treatment of (III) with NaOH in methanol gives 2,3-dimethyl-4-methoxypyridine-N-oxide (IV), which is reacted with acetic acid and acetic anhydride and oxidized in refluxing NaOH, yielding 3-methyl-4-methoxypyridine-2-methanol (V). The chlorination of (V) with thionylchloride in CH2Cl2 affords 3-methyl-4-methoxy-2-chloromethylpyridine (VI). The reaction of 2-mercapto-5-nitrobenzimidazole (VII) with iron and concentrated HCl in refluxing ethanol and water gives monoamine (VIII), which by condensation with 2,5-dimethoxytetrahydrofuran (IX) in acetic acid yields 2-mercapto-5-(1-pyrrolyl)benzimidazole (X). The condensation of (VI) with (X) by means of NaOH in methanol gives 2-[(4-methoxy-3-methyl-2-pyridinyl)methylsulfanyl]-5-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)-1H-benzimidazole (XI), which is finally treated with m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (m-CPBA) in chloroform.

Ilaprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) used in the treatment of dyspepsia, peptic ulcer disease, gastroesophageal reflux disease and duodenal ulcer.
Ilaprazole is chemically known as 2-[[(4-methoxy-3-methyl-2-pyridinyl)methyl]sulfinyl]-6-(lH-pyrrol-l-yl)-lH-benzimidazole havin following structure

There are very few patent documents related to crystallization of ilaprazole.
The example 2 of Indian Patent No. 183088 describes crystallization of ilaprazole from mixture of ethyl acetate and ether.
Indian patent application No. 3607/DELNP/2009 discloses various crystalline forms: A, B, E, F, I of ilaprazole and process for their preparation. The crystalline form B of ilaprazole is obtained by crystallization from acetone/triethylamine in a refrigerator for 11 days. The form B is characterized by peaks at 12.6 and 18.1 degree 2Θ in X-ray powder differactogram.
Another Indian patent application No. 3634/DELNP/2009 discloses various solvates of ilaprazole, these are crystalline form C (1,4-dioxane hemisolvate), D (tetrahydrofuran hemisolvate), G (methanol solvate), K (hydrate) of ilaprzole and process for their preparation.
International Patent Publication No. WO 2011/071314 discloses process for the preparation of Form A and Form B. The process for the preparation of Form A involves conversion of ilaprazole to its inorganic salt followed by neutralization with suitable acid in a solvent. The process for preparation of Form B requires use of multiple solvents for the crystallization.
The earlier processes crystallization of ilaprazole has following disadvantages:
i) process is laborious due to concentration of solvent carried out several times;
ii) difficult to obtain the pharmaceutically acceptable purity; and
iii) time consuming.
The physical or chemical properties of a drug can vary depending on the crystalline form of the drug, and such physical and chemical properties can greatly influence a suitable dosage form of the drug, the optimization of a process for preparing the drug, and the in vivo absorption of the drug. The discovery of the most appropriate crystalline form of a drug in a procedure for developing the drug enables the development time and cost to be reduced.

EXAMPLES
Preparation of 2-chloro-8 -cyclopentyl-5 -methyl-8H-pyrido Γ2.3 – lpyrimidin-7-one (Formula II)
Step a: Preparation of trimethylsilyl (2£)-but-2-enoate (Formula V, when R is trimethylsilyl)
Crotonic acid (18.68 g) was taken in dichloromethane (80 mL) at room
temperature to obtain a solution. Hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS) (21 g) followed by imidazole (0.4 g) was added to the solution at room temperature under stirring. The reaction mixture was refluxed for 2 hours. Dichloromethane was recovered completely under vacuum at 45°C. Dichloromethane (200 mL) was again added to the reaction mixture, and then recovered completely under vacuum at 45°C. The colorless liquid obtained was taken as such for next step.
Step b: Preparation of 2-chloro-8-cyclopentyl-5-methyl-8H-pyrido[2,3-i/|pyrimidin-7-one (Formula II)
Method A
Trimethylsilyl (2£)-but-2-enoate (obtained from step a) and diisopropylethylamine (52 mL) were added to a solution of 5-bromo-2-chloro-N-cyclopentylpyrimidin-4-amine (20 g, Formula III) in tetrahydrofuran (100 mL) at room temperature under a nitrogen atmosphere. The reaction system was degassed under vacuum and then flushed with nitrogen; this evacuation procedure was repeated three times. Trans-dichlorobis(acetonitrile) palladium (II) (0.970 g) followed by the addition of tri-o-tolylphosphine (0.770 g) was added to the reaction mixture under a nitrogen atmosphere.
The reaction system was again degassed under vacuum and then flushed with nitrogen; this evacuation procedure was repeated three times. The reaction mixture was heated at 75°C to 80°C overnight. The progress of the reaction was monitored by thin layer chromatography (TLC) (60% ethyl acetate/toluene). Trans-dichlorobis(acetonitrile) palladium (II) (0.725 g) was again added followed by the addition of tri-o-tolylphosphine (0.725 g) to the reaction mixture at 75°C to 80°C.

The present invention relates to novel hydrates of sodium dolutegravir and their methods of preparation. In addition, the invention relates to a novel crystalline form of sodium dolutegravir, which is a useful intermediate for the preparation of one of the new hydrates. The invention also relates to the use of the new hydrates for the production of pharmaceutical compositions.
Finally, the invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising an effective amount of the novel hydrates, oral dosage forms comprising these pharmaceutical compositions, a process for preparing said oral dosage forms, and the use of such pharmaceutical compositions or dosage forms in the treatment of retroviral infections such as HIV infections -1.
Dolutegravir, chemically designated (4f?, 12aS)-/V-(2,4-difluorobenzyl)-7-hydroxy-4-methyl-6,8-dioxo-3,4,6,8, 12, 12a-hexahydro-2H-pyrido[1 ‘,2’:4,5]pyrazino[2, 1- ?][1 ,3]oxazine-9-carboxamide, is a human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1 ) integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI) indicated in combination with other a nti retroviral agents for the treatment of HIV-1 infection. The marketed finished dosage form (TIVICAY™) contains dolutegravir as its sodium salt, chemically denominated sodium (4f?,12aS)-9-((2,4-difluorobenzyl)carbamoyl)-4-methyl-6,8-dioxo-3,4,6,8,12, 12a-hexahydro-2H-pyrido[1 ‘,2’:4,5]pyrazino[2, 1- ?][1 ,3]oxazin-7-olate, which is represented by the following general chemical formula (I):

(I)
WO 2010/068253 A1 discloses a monohydrate and an anhydrous form of dolutegravir sodium as well as a crystalline form of the free compound. Processes for the preparation of said forms are also provided in the application.
WO 2013/038407 A1 discloses amorphous dolutegravir sodium and processes for preparing the same.
Hydrates of pharmaceutical drug substances are of particular interest as they provide new opportunities for preparing novel pharmaceutical compositions with improved quality, activity and/or compliance. This is due to the fact that hydrates have different physicochemical properties compared to their anhydrous counterparts such as melting point, density, habitus, chemical and physical stability, hygroscopicity, dissolution rate, solubility, bioavailability etc., which influence the formulation process and also impact the final drug product.
If an anhydrous form is selected, phase changes during the formulation process induced by hydrate formation must be avoided. This can be particularly difficult if for example wet granulation is used with a substance that is able to form hydrates like dolutegravir sodium.
Hence, a stable hydrate of dolutegravir sodium would allow to easily formulate dolutegravir sodium in a controlled manner and subsequently also facilitate storage and packaging.
However, the so far known dolutegravir sodium monohydrate disclosed in WO 2010/068253 A1 shows excessive water uptake when exposed to moisture and on the other hand already dehydrates below 30% relative humidity.
Therefore, there is a need for hydrates of dolutegravir sodium with improved physicochemical properties, e.g. for hydrates which are stable over a broad humidity range, in particular for hydrates absorbing only low amounts of water at elevated humidity and on the other hand preserving their crystal structure also at dry conditions. In addition, there is a need for pharmaceutical compositions comprising these hydrates, and thus also for hydrates that allow for improved formulation of dolutegravir sodium in pharmaceutical compositions.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to novel hydrates of dolutegravir sodium and to processes for their preparation. Specifically, the present invention provides crystalline forms of dolutegravir sodium of formula (I) according to respective claims 1 , 5 and 6, with preferred embodiments being set forth in sub-claim 2. The present invention also provides processes for their preparation according to respective claims 3, 7 and 8, with preferred process embodiments being set forth in sub-claim 4. The present invention further provides the uses according to claims 9 and 16, and a pharmaceutical composition according to claim 10, and preferred embodiments thereof according to sub-claims 1 1 and 12. The present invention also provides a process for the preparation of the pharmaceutical composition according to claim
13, and preferred embodiments thereof according to sub-claim 14. The pharmaceutical composition for therapeutic use is set forth in claim 15.
The novel hydrates are physically and chemically stable over a broad humidity range, show only low water uptakes when exposed to moisture and are even stable at dry conditions. Therefore, the novel hydrates are especially suitable for the preparation of pharmaceutical compositions, e.g. in terms of time and costs.
In particular, it has been found that crystal Form HxA exhibits improved properties which allow for improved formulation of Form HxA in pharmaceutical compositions.
In addition, the present invention relates to a novel crystalline form of dolutegravir sodium, which, for the first time, allows the preparation of one of the novel hydrates and is therefore a valuable intermediate.
