Do you want to improve efficiency and innovation in your synthetic route design, development and optimisation?
The efficient conversion of a chemical process into a process for manufacture on tonnage scale has always been of importance in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries. However, in the current economic and regulatory climate, it has become increasingly vital and challenging to do so efficiently. Indeed, it has never been so important to keep up to date with the latest developments in this dynamic field.
At this Organic Process Research & Development Conference, you will hear detailed presentations and case studies from top international chemists. The hand-picked programme of speakers has been put together specifically for an industrial audience. They will discuss the latest issues relating to synthetic route design, development and optimisation in the pharmaceutical, fine chemical and allied fields. Unlike other conferences, practically all our speakers are experts from industry, which means the ideas and information you take home will be directly applicable to your own work.
The smaller numbers at our conferences create a more intimate atmosphere. You will enjoy plenty of opportunities to meet and network with speakers and fellow attendees during the reception, sit-down lunches and extended coffee breaks in a relaxed and informal environment. Together, you can explore the different strategies and tactics evolving to meet today’s challenges.
This is held in Pune, close proximity to Mumbai city, very convenient to stay and travel to either in Pune or Mumbai. I feel this should be an opportunity to be grabbed before the conference is full and having no room
Hurry up rush

John Knight

Dr John Knight gained a first class honours degree in chemistry at the University of Southampton, UK. John remained at Southampton to study for his PhD in synthetic methodology utilizing radical cyclisation and dipolar cyloaddition chemistry.
After gaining his PhD, John moved to Columbia University, New York, USA where he worked as a NATO Postdoctoral Fellow with Professor Gilbert Stork. John returned to the UK in 1987 joining Glaxo Group Research (now GSK) as a medicinal chemist, where he remained for 4 years before moving to the process research and development department at Glaxo, where he remained for a further 3½ years.
During his time at Glaxo, John worked on a number of projects and gained considerable plant experience (pilot and manufacturing). In 1994 John moved to Oxford Asymmetry (later changing its name to Evotec and most recently to Aptuit) when it had just 25 staff. John’s major role when first at Oxford Asymmetry was to work with a consultant project manager to design, build and commission a small pilot plant, whilst in parallel developing the chemistry PRD effort at Oxford Asymmetry.
The plant was fully operational within 18 months, operating to a 24h/7d shift pattern. John continued to run the pilot plant for a further 3 years, during which time he had considerable input into the design of a second plant, which was completed and commissioned in 2000. After an 18-month period at a small pharmaceutical company, John returned to Oxford in 2000 (by now called Evotec) to head the PRD department. John remained in this position for 6.5 years, during which time he assisted in its expansion, established a team to perform polymorph and salt screening studies and established and maintained high standards of development expertise across the department.

Glenmark’s TRPA1 antagonist ‘GRC 17536’ shows positive data in a proof of concept study

MUMBAI, India, Sep 17, 2014
- Glenmark's first in class TRPA1 antagonist, GRC 17536, has shown positive data in a Phase 2a proof of concept study in patients with painful diabetic neuropathy
Glenmark Pharmaceuticals today announced that its first in class Transient Receptor Potential Ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) antagonist, GRC 17536 has shown positive data in a Phase 2a double blind, placebo controlled, multi-centre, proof of concept study conducted on 138 patients in Europe and India.
A statistically significant and clinically relevant response was seen in a prospectively-identified, substantial sub-group of patients with moderate to severe pain who had relatively intact sensory responses as detected by a standardized testing methodology. GRC 17536 was well-tolerated with no evidence of CNS or other drug related side effects.
Patrick Keohane, Chief Medical Officer, Glenmark stated “Diabetic neuropathy remains a difficult to manage chronic clinical condition with limited therapeutic options. These initial efficacy and safety data with GRC 17536, a peripherally acting novel therapeutic, are encouraging, and Glenmark intends to be ready to file for a Phase 2b dose range finding study in patients with neuropathic pain before the end of this financial year. This announcement also reaffirms our position globally in the development of novel pain therapies”.
Commenting on this result, Dr. Michael Buschle, Chief Scientific Officer & President – Biologics, Glenmark Pharmaceuticals mentioned, “This is very promising and GRC 17536 may be useful for several indications which we will pursue”.
The Glenmark TRPA1 program includes indications in pain as well as respiratory. Inhaled doses of GRC 17536 are also being tested in a Phase 2A proof of concept study in patients with Chronic Cough.

Note on TRPA1
TRPA1 is an ion channel expressed on peripheral and spinal sensory neurons and it mediates pain signal transmission. It functions as a cellular sensor for detecting painful mechanical, biochemical and thermal stimuli that cause sensory nerve hyperactivity during chronic pathologies including chronic pain, inflammation, itch and cough. TRPA1 receptor is shown to induce pain hypersensitivity in animal models of diabetic neuropathic pain and its blockade attenuates pain hypersensitivity as well as later loss of the nerve fibers and their function. GRC 17536 is a potent, selective and first in class antagonist of TRPA1 receptor. Preclinical studies have demonstrated its effectiveness in animal models of neuropathic and inflammatory pain including the peripheral diabetic neuropathic pain, osteoarthritic pain, postoperative pain and chemotherapy induced pain which supports potential utility of TRPA1 blockade in therapeutic pain management.

Hydrogenation in flow: homogenous and heterogeneous catalysts using Teflon AF-2400 to effect gas-liquid contact at elevated pressure
http://pubs.rsc.org/en/Content/ArticleLanding/2011/SC/c1sc00055a#!divAbstract
M. O’Brien, N. Taylor, A. Polyzos, I.R. Baxendale, S.V. Ley, Chem. Sci. 2011, 2, 1250-1257.
A Tube-in-Tube reactor/injector has been developed, based on a gas-permeable Teflon AF-2400 membrane, which allows both heterogeneous and homogeneous catalytic hydrogenation reactions to be efficiently carried out at elevated pressure in flow, thereby increasing the safety profile of these reactions. Measurements of the gas permeation through the tubing and uptake into solution, using both a burette method and a novel computer-assisted ‘bubble counting’ technique, indicate that permeation/dissolution follows Henry’s law and that saturation is achieved extremely rapidly. The same gas-permeable membrane has also been shown to efficiently effect removal of excess unreacted hydrogen, thus enabling further downstream reaction/processing.

The addition of a radical to a heteroaromatic base is commonly referred to as a Minsici reaction. Such reactions constitute a broad-set of selective CH-functionalization processes. This review describes some of the major applications of Minisci reactions and related processes to medicinal or biological chemistry, and highlights some potential developments within this area.
Introduction
The aim of this review is to summarize the use of Minisci reactions within medicinal chemistry, and to highlight some future opportunities to continue progression of this chemistry. As such, it is not an aim that detailed mechanistic information, or a comprehensive list of examples be described. For this, the reader is directed to excellent articles from Minisci, Harrowven and Bowman.1–3 Rather, the review is written to show that Minisci reactions are extremely valuable CH-functionalization processes within medicinal chemistry. However, their use has been somewhat under-utilized when compared with other well-known selective transformations (e.g. palladium-catalysed cross-couplings). Therefore, it is hoped that in the future, Minisci chemistry will continue to develop, such that the reactions become a staple-set of methods for medicinal and biological chemists alike.
To aid discussion, the review is divided in to several sections. First, some historical perspective is given. This is followed by a discussion of scope and limitations. The main-body of the review describes some specific examples of Minisci reactions and related processes, with a focus on their use within medicinal, or biological chemistry. Finally, brief mention is given to potential future applications, some of which may be beneficial in providing ‘high-content’ diverse libraries for screening.

WIKI
The Minisci reaction is a named reaction in organic chemistry. It is a radical substitution to an aromatic compound, in particular to a heteroaromatic base, that introduces an alkyl group. The reaction was published about in 1971 by F. Minisci.[1] The aromatic compound is generally electron-deficient and with N-aromatic compounds the nitrogen atom is protonated.[2] A typical reaction is that between pyridine and pivalic acid to 2-tert-butylpyridine with silver nitrate, sulfuric acid and ammonium persulfate. The reaction resembles Friedel-Crafts alkylation but with opposite reactivity and selectivity.[3]
The Minisci reaction proceeds regioselectively and enables the introduction of a wide range of alkyl groups.[4] A side-reaction is acylation.[5] The ratio between alkylation and acylation depends on the substrate and the reaction conditions. Due to the simple raw materials and the simple reaction conditions the reaction has many applications in heterocyclic chemistry.[6][7]
Mechanism
A free radical is formed from the carboxylic acid in an oxidative decarboxylation with silver salts and an oxidizing agent. The oxidizing agent reoxidizes the silver salt. The radical then reacts with the aromatic compound. The ultimate product is formed by rearomatisation. The acylated product is formed from the acyl radical.[4][5]

4-methoxyphenyl methanol, (4-メトキシフェニル)メタノール NMR, IR , MASS

(4-methoxyphenyl)methanol
IUPAC Name: 4-methoxyphenyl methanol
C6H10O3; MW = 138.17
The molecule contains two oxygens, and from the analysis, contains four double bonds, carbonyls or rings. The large number of degrees of unsaturation strongly suggests an aromatic compound (DU = 4).
The mass spectrum displays a molecular ion, which is the base peak, an m-1 and an m-17, all of which are consistent with a simple alcohol.
The 13C spectrum contains six peaks, indicating that the molecule has some elements of symmetry. The quartet at
56 and the triplet at
71 represent a CH3 and a CH2 group which are deshielded by electronegative atoms (most likely oxygen); the peaks at
161 – 128 are in the aromatic region; the fact that two doublets and two singlets are observed strongly suggests 1,4-disubstitution.
The proton NMR also shows evidence for aromatic 1,4-disubstitution and suggests that the methyl and methylene are isolated and adjacent to electronegative groups. A peak consistent with an alcoholic OH can also be seen.
The IR is consistent with an aromatic alcohol containing no carbonyl group, suggesting that the second oxygen is involved in an ether linkage.
The simplest structure which is consistent with all of these data would be an aromatic compound containing an alcohol group and a methyl ether, situated 1,4 relative to each other.
IH NMR
The proton NMR has two doublets at
6.9, consistent with aromatic 1,4-disubstitution, and three singlets, areas 3, 2 and 1. The singlets at
3.6 and 4.7 are highly shifted and suggest isolated CH3 and CH2 groups adjacent to one or more electronegative atoms or groups. The singlet, area 1, would be consistent with an alcohol.
13C NMR
The 13C spectrum contains six peaks, indicating that the molecule has some elements of symmetry. The quartet at
56 and the triplet at
71 represent a CH3 and a CH2 group which are deshielded by electronegative atoms (most likely oxygen); the peaks at
161 – 128 are in the aromatic region; the fact that two doublets and two singlets are observed strongly suggests 1,4-disubstitution.
13C NMR Data: q-56.0; t-71.0; d-114.3; d-128.3; s-160.9; s-133.2
13C NMR Assignments:
MASS
The mass spectrum consists of a molecular ion at 138, which is also the base peak, an m-1 peak at 137, indicating the presence of a labile hydrogen (OH or CHO), and an m-17 peak (loss of HO-). The spectrum is consistent with an alcohol which cannot readily break down to form other stable radical cations.
Mass Spectrum Fragments:
IR
3400-3200 cm–1: strong OH peak 3100 cm–1: small peak, suggesting possible unsaturated CH 2900 cm–1: strong peak suggesting saturated CH 2200 cm–1: no unsymmetrical triple bonds 1710 cm–1: no carbonyl 1610 and 1500 cm–1: sharp peaks, consistent with aromatic carbon-carbon double bonds
