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.

INTRODUCTION
Linaclotide is a 14-residue peptide which is an agonist of the guanylate cyclase type-C receptor. Linaclotide may be used for the treatment of chronic constipation and irritable bowel syndrome. Structurally, linaclotide has three disulfide bonds and they are present between Cys1-Cys6, Cys2-Cys-10 and Cys5-Cys13. The structure of linaclotide is shown below:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8- 9 10 11 12 13 14
Benitez et al. Peptide Science, 2010, Vol. 96, No. 1 , 69-80 discloses a process for the preparation of linaclotide. The process involves the use of 2-chlorotrityl (CTC) resin and 9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (Fmoc) chemistry. The Cys residues are protected by Trt (trityl) group. The amino acids are coupled to one another using 3 equivalents of 1 -[bis(dimethylamino)methylene]-6-chloro-1 H-benzotriazolium hexafluorophosphate 3-oxide (HCTU) as coupling agent and 6 equivalents of diisoprpylethylamine (DIEA) as base in dimethylformamide (DMF). The Fmoc group is removed using piperidine-DMF (1 :4). The Cys residues are incorporated using 3 equivalents of Ν,Ν’-diisopropylcarbodiimide (DIPCDI) as coupling agent and 3 equivalents of 1 -hydroxybenzotriazole (HOBt) as an activating agent. After the elongation of the peptide chain, the peptide was cleaved from the solid support (CTC resin) by first treating with 1 % trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) and then with a mixture of TFA, triisoprpylsilane (TIS) and water in the ratio of 95:2.5:2.5. The disulfide bonds are prepared by subjecting the linear peptide to air oxidation in sodium dihydrogen phosphate (100 mM) and guanidine hydrochloride buffer (2 mM).
US2010/261877A1 discloses a process for purification of linaclotide. The process involves first purification of crude peptide by reverse-phase chromatographic purification followed by concentrating the purified pools and dissolving the purified linaclotide in aqueous-isopropanol or aqueous-ethanol and spray-drying the solution to afford pure Linaclotide.
The synthesis of a peptide containing disulfide bridges is difficult for two main reasons; one is potential risk of racemization during the formation of linear chain and the other is mis-folding of the disulfide bridges. Hence, there is a need in the art to a cost-effective process for the preparation of pure linaclotide.

The present Invention relates to an improved process for preparation of tadalafil and crystallization and/or purification thereof, wherein the processes are conducted at increased pressure. The invention relates also to a process for preparation of tadalafil co-precipitates and to a solid pharmaceutical composition comprising tadalafil co-precipitates and at least one water soluble diluent and/or water insoluble non-swellable diluent, wherein the composition is substantially free of water insoluble swellable diluents
The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of CGMP-phosphodiesterase inhibitor, particularly tadalafil, a method for production co-precipitate thereof and to solid oral pharmaceutical formulations comprising tadalafil co-precipitate.
Tadalafil, chemically known as (6R-trans)-6-(1,3-benzodioxol-5-il)-2,3,6,7,12,12a-hexahydro-2-methyl-pyrazino.1′, 2′:1,6]pyrido[3,4-b]indole-1,4-dione, is a potent and selective inhibitor of the cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) – specific phosphodiesterase enzyme PDE5. It is shown below as structural formula I:
Tadalafil is marketed under the tradename CIALIS* and is used for the treatment of erectile dysfunction. The product is available as a film-coated tablet for oral administration containing 2.5, 5, 10 and 20 mg of active ingredient and the following inactive ingredients: lactose monohydrate, hydroxypropylcellulose, sodium lauryl sulfate, croscarmellose sodium, microcrystaliine cellulose, magnesium stearate, hypromellose, triacetin, titanium dioxide (E171), iron oxide (E172) and talc.
Tadalafil is practically insoluble in water and very slightly soluble in organic solvent such as ethanol, methanol and acetone.
Problems associated with low solubility of tadalafil in ethanol and most of other organic solvents resulted in the need of large quantities of solvents required to perform synthesis and crystallization of tadalafil at industrial scale, which have unwanted technological, environmental and economical impact.
US Patent No. 5 859 006 describes the synthesis of the tadalafil and its intermediate (A) which involves reacting D-tryptophan methyl ester with a piperonal in the presence of dichloromethane and trifluoroacetic acid which provides a mixture of desired cis and undesired trans isomer of intermediate A with poor selectivity. The isomers are further separated by column chromatography. The cis isomer is further reacted with chloroacetyl chloride in chloroform, providing another intermediate of tadalafil (B) which reacted with methylamine to give tadalafil of formula (1) in methanol slurry requiring an additional purification step by flash chromatography.
An improved process in the synthesis of tadalafil via modified Pictet-Spengler reaction is described in WO 04/011463 in which D-tryptophan methyl ester hydrochloride and piperonal are condensed in anhydrous isopropyl alcohol to provide hydrochloride of intermediate A. After isolation of desirable cis isomer, the product is further reacted with chloroacetyl chloride and then with methylamine in THF to give tadalafil.
Therefore there still exists a need for an improved process for a synthesis and purification of tadalafil, which would overcome the disadvantages of the prior art processes.
Low solubility of tadalafil in aqueous solutions is further disadvantageous because in vivo absorption is typically dissolution rate-limited which may result in poor bioavailability of the drug. Different approaches in the processes of preparation of pharmaceutical compositions have been applied to overcome the poor solubility.
For example, EP 1 200 092 Bl describes a pharmaceutical composition of free drug particulate form of tadalafil wherein at least 90% of the particles have a particle size of less than about 40 μm as well as composition comprising tadalafil, wherein the compound is present as solid particles not embedded in polymeric co-precipitate. Apparently, preferably at least 90% of the particles have a particle size of less than 10 μm. The technological drawback of such small particles is possible chargeability and secondary agglomeration due to increased surface energy which can cause problems during the micronization and further processing.
WO 2008/134557 describes another approach to overcome the low-solubility problem by pharmaceutical composition comprising starch and tadalafil characterized by particle size having d(90) greater than 40 μm wherein the weight ratio of starch to tadalafil is 4.5 to 1 or greater. Apparently, the preferred ratio is at least 15 to 1.
Yet another approach to overcome the low-solubility problem is to use a “co-precipitate” of tadalafil and a carrier or excipient. For example, EP 828 479 Bl describes a solvent based process wherein tadalafil and a carrier are co-precipitated with a medium in which the tadalafil and carrier are substantially insoluble. EP 828 479 describes a solvent based process wherein tadalafil and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose phthalate are co-precipitated in weakly acidic medium from a combination of non-aqueous water miscible solvent and water. However, pharmaceutical composition prepared according to EP 828479 exhibit deviations in release rate of tadalafil which was due to poor reproducibility of a process for preparation of co-precipitate. It was found that precipitation in acidic media causes unwanted degradation of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose phthalate and that precipitation at higher temperatures does not produce desired product.
WO 2008/005039 also describes a solid composite including tadalafil being in intimate contact with a carrier. The carriers include hydrophilic polymers such as povidone, cellulose derivatives, polyethylene glycol and polymethacrylates. The compositions are prepared by combining tadalafil with hydrophilic polymer and removal of the solvent by evaporation.
WO 2010/115886 describes an adsorbate comprising poorly soluble active ingredient with a particulate and/or porous carrier wherein the adsorbate is prepared by using non-polar solvent. Apparently, the solvents used are selected from the group of chlorinated hydrocarbon (dichloromethane or trichloromethane), diisopropylether and hexane, which is also the main drawback of this solution.
Co-precipitates of phosphodiesterase-5-inhibitor and copolymer of different acrylic acid derivatives are described in WO 2011/012217. The procedures described involve the use of tetrahydrofurane.
Poor solubility can also be solved with co-crystals. WO 2010/099323 discloses crystalline molecular complexes of tadalafil with co-former selected from the group of a short to medium chain organic acids, alcohols and amines.
WO 2012/107541 and WO 2012/107092 disclose co-granulate of tadalafil with cyclodextrines.
WO 2014/003677 discloses a pharmaceutical composition comprising solid dispersion particles containing tadalafil and a dispersing component, which composition further comprises a solubilizer.
Based on the above, there is still a need for an improved dosage form containing tadalafil and improved technological process for the preparation thereof.
The process for preparing tadalafil according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention is disclosed in Scheme 1.

A process for preparing a compound of structural Formula Ia: comprising Boc deprotection with TFA of, reductive amination of:.
The present invention is directed to a novel process for the preparation of omarigliptin, (2R,35,,5R)-2-(2,5-difluorophenyl)-5-[2-(methylsulfonyl)-2,6-dihydropyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrazol-5(4H)-yl]tetrahydro-2H-pyran-3 -amine, a dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-4) inhibitor, for the treatment of Type 2 diabetes, and related intermediates.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Syntheses of omarigliptin have previously been described in PCT international patent applications numbers WO 2010/056708 and WO2013/003250. The process described in WO 2010/056708 does not result in a favorable yield of the compound of structural Formula la, as it results in a racemic mixture. WO2013/003250 describes the following scheme to make the compound of structural Formula la, an intermediate for synthesizing omarigliptin:
In WO2013/003250, synthesis of the compound of structural Formula la involves using benzenesulfonic acid (BSA) to remove the Boc protecting group of the compound of structural Formula 1, by first forming a BSA salt of the compound of structural Formula la. The BSA salt is then isolated and undergoes reductive amination with Boc -ketone of the compound of structural Formula 7, to produce the compound of structural Formula la, as a 19: 1 diastereomeric mixture. The BSA mediated Boc deprotection requires up to 72 h to reach full conversion.
An alternative process which eliminates the need to isolate the BSA salt of the compound of Formula la and reduces the overall reaction time of the process is desired. The inventors have now discovered a process for making the compound of structural Formula la which eliminates the step of isolating a salt of the compound of structural Formula la and reduces the overall reaction time. The present process also produces an end-of reaction homogeneous solution via reductive amination, which facilitates crystallization of the compound of structural Formula la. The described process also improves the diastereoselectivity, overall yield, cost and cycle time over the process described in WO2013/003250.
WO2013/003250 also describes the Boc deprotection of the compound of Formula la to produce omarigliptin (Formula I) shown below. As described in WO2013/003250, the Boc deprotection of the compound of Formula la involves aging the substrate in aqueous sulfuric acid in DMAc at 30 °C for 15-20 h, then working up with ammonium hydroxide. This work up produces large amounts of poorly soluble ammonium sulfate which co-crystallizes with the desired product. As a result, isolation of the desired product requires a long cycle time for filtration, washing and drying.
Formula I (omarigliptin)
Because the processes described herein use trifluoroacetic acid with or without a co-solvent for the transformation of the compound of Formula la to omarigliptin, which offers good solubility for the compound of Formula la, omarigliptin is achieved with fast reaction kinetics and good purity profiles.
the compound of structural Formula 1 is prepared by the following processes:

Step 1 : As
A round bottom flask was charged with ligand L (0.829 g), Cu(II) propionate
monohydrate (0.402 g) (or Cu(II) acetate (0.31 g) or CuCl or CuCl2) and EtOH (350 ml) and agitated at room temperature for lh. 2,4-Difluorobenzaldehyde (100.0 g) was added followed by DABCO (2.368 g) (or 2,4-dimethylpiperizine) and the mixture was cooled to -5 – -15 °C. Cold (0°C) nitromethane (190 ml or 215 g) was added slowly to the cold solution and the solution was aged at -5 to -15 °C for 20-24 h and at 0 °C for 2-4h. 5 wt% EDTA»2Na (500 ml) followed by
water (200 mL) and MTBE (1.0 L) was added to the cold solution, and the temperature was raised to 20°C. The layers were separated and the organic layer was washed with additional 5 wt% EDTA»2Na (500 ml), followed by water (50 mL) and brine (250 mL). The organic layer, containing Compound 17, was concentrated to remove nitromethane, then the solvent was switched to THF.
Step 2: Michael-Lactolization – Nitro lactol
To Compound 17 in 2 volumes of THF (258 mL) from Step 1 under 2 and cooling at 0 °C, 1 equivalent of Hunig’s base was added. 1.15 equivalents of acrolein was added over 1 h via syringe pump at 0-5 °C. The reaction was stirred at -10-0 °C overnight. The resulting mixture was used directly in the next step.
Alternatively, the mixture was concentrated at 0-5 °C to remove excess acrolein, then the residue was flushed with acetonitrile until Hunig’s base and water are mostly removed. The residue was taken up in 8 volumes of acetonitrile and used directly in the next step.
Alternatively, at the end of the reaction the mixture was worked up by diluting with MTBE and washing with aqueous citric acid solution, and aqueous NaHCC solution, and the solvent was switched to acetonitrile. Alternatively, the end reaction mixture was taken forward directly to the next step.
Step 3: Dehydration – Nitro dihydropyrans
1.1 Equivalents of TEA was added to the acetonitrile solution of lactol 18 from Step 2 followed by 1.2 equivalents of mesyl chloride and 1.2 equivalents of S-collidine under < +10 °C . The reaction was aged at 10°C for 0.5-1 h. Alternatively, the end of the reaction mixture from Step 2 was cooled to between -20 °C to 0 °C. Two equivalents of S-collidine and 1.4 equivalents of mesyl chloride were then added. The mixture was heated to 36 °C and aged overnight. The mixture was cooled to room temperature. 15 volumes of MTBE was added and the solution was
washed with 3 volumes 10 wt% citric acid and 6 volumes water, 10 volumes water, then 3 volumes of 5% aHC03 solution and 6 volumes water. The organic was concentrated with 20 volumes of MTBE using 10 volumes MTBE. The organic solution was stirred with 20-30 wt% AQUAGUARD for 2 hours at room temperature. The mixture was filtered and washed with 2 volumes of MTBE.
Step 4: Dynamic Kinetic Resolution (DKR) crystallization – rraws-nitro-dihydropyran (19t)
The organic MTBE solution of Step 3 was solvent switched to 2 volumes of IPA and the final volume was -300 mL. 10 Mol% of TEA (or DAB CO or morpholine or DMAP) was added. Then water (1 15 mL) was slowly added over 3 hours. The slurry was filtered, washed with 80/20 IP A/water (2×100 mL) and vacuum dried under N2.
Step 5: Hydroboration/oxidation – Trans-nitro-pyranol
To a vessel charged with /raws-nitro-dihydropyran (10 g), MTBE (100 mL) was added under nitrogen. The mixture was stirred at room temperature to give a clear orange solution. The solution was cooled to +2 °C and borane dimethyl sulfide complex (9.55 ml) was added. The clear solution was aged for 2-5h until >99% conversion by HPLC analysis. The reaction was slowly quenched with water (7.25 ml) keeping at < +9 °C. After the solution was aged at 5°C for 5 min, water (78 mL) was added at < +13 °C. Solid sodium percarbonate (13.26 g, 84 mmol) was added. The suspension was stirred at 5 °C for 15h. The mixture was transferred to a separatory funnel with the aid of 60 mL MTBE and 20 mL water. The mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature. The aqueous phase was back-extracted with 40 mL MTBE. The combined organic phase was washed once with 30 mL half saturated sodium chloride solution, once with 15 mL brine and 15 mL 0.2N HC1, and once with 30 mL half-saturated sodium chloride solution. The organic layer was dried over a2S04. The organic was filtered, washed with 10 mL MTBE and concentrated to an oil. The oil was diluted to 200 mL for a 0.191M solution.
Step 6: Nitro Reduction/Boc protection – Pyranol
A 3 -neck jacketed round bottom flask equipped with overhead stirrier was charged with 0.191M (5R,6S)-5-nitro-pyran-3-ol (119 ml) (Compound 20) in ethanol and ethanol (32 ml). The solution was cooled to 1 1-12 °C. Cold 6N HC1 (19.55 ml, 1 17 mmol) was added at <
+17°C. Zinc dust (12.93 g) was added in five portions (5×2.59g) at < +26 °C. The mixture was stirred at 12 °C for 22 h. 1M K2C03 (76 mL) was added in one portion. MTBE (59 mL) was added then EDTA 2K 2H20 (22.55 g) was added over 10 min at < +14 °C. To the solution 45 wt% KOH (4.86 mL) solution was added. The solution was cooled to 5 °C, and 1.1 equivalents of B0C2O (5.46 g) was added. The solution was rinsed with MTBE (10 mL) and stirred at 5 °C for 2h, then at 12 °C for 16h, and then at 24 °C for lOh until >99.5% conversion. The solution was transferred to a separatory funnel with the aid of MTBE (30 mL) and water (5 mL). The organic layer was filtered and washed with MTBE (20 mL). The organic filtrate was concentrated. MTBE (60 mL), water (30 mL) and saturated sodium chloride solution (15 mL) were added. The mixture was warmed in a 30 °C bath to dissolve solid, and then concentrated. The concentrate was flushed with toluene in a 60 °C bath, then concentrated. Toluene (8.4 mL) was added and the mixture was heated to 80 °C. Heptane (70.8 mL) was added over lh at 80 °C, then cooled slowly to room temperature. The mixture was filtered and washed with 1 :2 toluene/heptane (23.55 mL), filterated and vacuum dried under nitrogen until a constant weight.
The purity could be further upgraded by the following procedure: a round bottom flask was charged with the product of Step 6 (7.069 g) from above. EtOH (21 mL) was added and the mixture was heated to 45 °C. Water (31.5 mL) was slowly added over 1 h at 45 °C. The mixture was aged for lh. Water (31.5 mL) was added in one portion, then cooled slowly to room temperature and aged overnight. The slurry was filtered and washed with 1 :3.5 EtOH/water (23.56 mL). Crystals were vacuum dried under nitrogen until a constant weight.
Alternatively, Compound 20 was reduced with 100 psi hydrogen in 20 volume wet THF in the presence of 10-30 wt% Raney nickel at 50 °C. Then the reaction mixture was basified with 2 equivalent of K2CO3 and a slight execess B0C2O to afford crude Compound 21 after aqueous work up.
Compound 7 was obtained from 21via oxidation as described in WO2013/003250.

Boc-mesyl-pyrazole solid 1 was added to 2.5 volumes of TFA at 0-2 °C, over 2-3 minutes under nitrogen, followed by 0.5 volume of TFA rinse. Conversion to TFA salt was complete within 0.5-lh at 1-2 °C. DMAc (14 vol) followed by triethylamine (5 equivalents or 2.3 volumes) were slowly added to the TFA reaction mixture at 0 °C maintaining < +20 °C. Boc-ketone 7 (0.89 equivalent) was then added at -15 °C followed by solid NaBH(OAc)3 (1.4 equivalents) which was added in three portions over lh. The reaction solution was aged at -15 °C overnight. The solution was then warmed to 22 °C, and after aging for 2-5 h. Diastereomeric ratio was > 96.5:3.5.
The solution was seeded with Boc amine 1 wt% at 22 °C and stirred at 22-40 °C for 2-4 h. 0.36 volume 28% ammonium hydroxide was added over 2-4 h, then, 3.64 volumes 28% ammonium hydroxide was added over 4-10h at 22-60 °C.
