Marizomib, a highly potent proteasome inhibitor, is in early clinical development at Triphase Research and Development I Corp for the treatment of relapsed or relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma. Phase I clinical trials have also been carried out for the treatment of solid tumors and lymphoma; however, no recent developments have been reported for these studies.

HDAC inhibitors halt tumor cell differentiation and growth, and when combined with marizomib in preclinical in vitro and in vivo studies, show additive and synergistic antitumor activities.

The compound was discovered from a new marine-obligate gram-positive actinomycete (Salinispora tropica). Preclinical studies suggest that this next-generation compound may be superior to other proteasome inhibitors, with broader target inhibition, faster onset and longer duration of action, higher potency, and oral and intravenous availability. By inhibiting proteasomes, marizomib prevents the breakdown of proteins involved in signal transduction, which blocks growth and induces apoptosis in cancer cells.

In 2013, orphan drug designation was assigned in the U.S. for the treatment of multiple myeloma.

The compound was originally developed by Nereus Pharmaceuticals, which was acquired by Triphase Research and Development in 2012.

marizomib is a naturally-occurring salinosporamide, isolated from the marine actinomycete Salinospora tropica, with potential antineoplastic activity. Marizomib irreversibly binds to and inhibits the 20S catalytic core subunit of the proteasome by covalently modifying its active site threonine residues; inhibition of ubiquitin-proteasome mediated proteolysis results in an accumulation of poly-ubiquitinated proteins, which may result in the disruption of cellular processes, cell cycle arrest, the induction of apoptosis, and the inhibition of tumor growth and angiogenesis. This agent more may more potent and selective than the proteasome inhibitor bortezomib

Marizomib (NPI-0052) is an oral, irreversible ββ-lactone derivative that binds selectively to the active proteasomal sites. In vivo studies with marizomib demonstrate reduced tumor growth without significant toxicity in myeloma xenograft models. A phase I trial in refractory and relapsed MM is under way.

Salinosporamide A is a potent proteasome inhibitor used as an anticancer agent that recently entered phase I human clinical trials for the treatment of multiple myeloma only three years after its discovery.^[1]^[2] This novel marine natural product is produced by the recently described obligate marine bacteria Salinispora tropica and Salinispora arenicola, which are found in ocean sediment. Salinosporamide A belongs to a family of compounds, known collectively as salinosporamides, which possess a densely functionalized γ-lactam-β-lactone bicyclic core.

Salinosporamide A was discovered by William Fenical and Paul Jensen from Scripps Institution of Oceanography in La Jolla, CA. In preliminary screening, a high percentage of the organic extracts of cultured Salinospora strains possessed antibiotic and anticancer activities, which suggests that these bacteria are an excellent resource for drug discovery.Salinospora strain CNB-392 was isolated from a heat-treated marine sediment sample and cytotoxicity-guided fractionation of the crude extract led to the isolation of salinosporamide A. Although salinosporamide A shares an identical bicyclic ring structure with omuralide, it is uniquely functionalized. Salinosporamide A displayed potent in vitro cytotoxicity against HCT-116 human colon carcinoma with an IC50 value of 11 ng mL-1. This compound also displayed potent and highly selective activity in the NCI’s 60-cell-line panel with a mean GI50 value (the concentration required to achieve 50% growth inhibition) of less than 10 nM and a greater than 4 log LC50 differential between resistant and susceptible cell lines. The greatest potency was observed against NCI-H226 non-small cell lung cancer, SF-539 CNS cancer, SK-MEL-28 melanoma, and MDA-MB-435 breast cancer (all with LC50 values less than 10 nM). Salinosporamide A was tested for its effects on proteasome function because of its structural relationship to omuralide. When tested against purified 20S proteasome, salinosporamide A inhibited proteasomal chymotrypsin-like proteolytic activity with an IC50 value of 1.3 nM.^[3] This compound is approximately 35 times more potent than omuralide which was tested as a positive control in the same assay. Thus, the unique functionalization of the core bicyclic ring structure of salinosporamide A appears to have resulted in a molecule that is a significantly more potent proteasome inhibitor than omuralide.^[1]

Salinosporamide A inhibits proteasome activity by covalently modifying the active site threonine residues of the 20S proteasome.

Biosynthesis

Salinosporamide A and B building blocks

Proposed biosynthesis of the nonproteinogenic amino-acid beta-hydroxycyclohex-2′-enylanine (3) (R = H or S~PCP) via a shunt in the phenylalanine biosynthetic pathway

Biosynthesis

It was originally hypothesized that salinosporamide B was a biosynthetic precursor to salinosporamide A due to their structural similarities.

It was thought that the halogenation of the unactivated methyl group was catalyzed by a non-heme iron halogenase.^[4]^[5]Recent work using ¹³C-labeled feeding experiments reveal distinct biosynthetic origins of salinosporamide A and B.^[4]^[6]

While they share the biosynthetic precursors acetate and presumed β-hydroxycyclohex-2′-enylalanine (3), they differ in the origin of the four-carbon building block that gives rise to their structural differences involving the halogen atom. A hybrid polyketide synthase-nonribosomal peptide synthetase (PKS-NRPS) pathway is most likely the biosynthetic mechanism in which acetyl-CoA and butyrate-derived ethylmalonyl-CoA condense to yield the β-ketothioester (4), which then reacts with (3) to generate the linear precursor (5).

The first stereoselective synthesis was reported by Rajender Reddy Leleti and E. J.Corey.^[7] Later several routes to the total synthesis of salinosporamide A have been reported.^[7]^[8]^[9]^[10]

In vitro studies using purified 20S proteasomes showed that salinosporamide A has lower EC50 for trypsin-like (T-L) activity than does Bortezomib. In vivo animal model studies show marked inhibition of T-L activity in response to salinosporamide A, whereas bortezomib enhances T-L proteasome activity.

Initial results from early-stage clinical trials of salinosporamide A in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma patients were presented at the 2011 American Society of Hematology annual meeting.^[11] Further early-stage trials of the drug in a number of different cancers are ongoing.^[12]

Salinosporamide A(1) was recently discovered by Fenical et al. as a bioactive product of a marine microorganism that is widely distributed in ocean sediments. Feeling, R. H.; Buchanan, G. O.; Mincer, T. J.; Kauffman, C. A.; Jensen, P. R.; Fenical, W., Angew. Chem. Int. Ed., 2003, 42, 355–357.

Structurally Salinosporamide A closely resembles the terrestrial microbial product omuralide (2a) that was synthesized by Corey et al. several years ago and demonstrated to be a potent inhibitor of proteasome function. See, (a) Corey, E. J.; Li, W. D., Z. Chem. Pharm. Bull., 1999, 47, 1–10; (b) Corey, E. J., Reichard, G. A.; Kania, R., Tetrahedron Lett., 1993, 34, 6977–6980; (c) Corey, E. J.; Reichard, G. A., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 1992, 114, 10677–10678; (d) Fenteany, G.; Standaert, R. F.; Reichard, G. A.; Corey, E. J.; Schreiber, S. L., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 1994, 91, 3358–3362.

Omuralide is generated by β-lactonization of the N-acetylcysteine thiolester lactacystin (2b) that was first isolated by the Omura group as a result of microbial screening for nerve growth factor-like activity. See, Omura, S., Fujimoto, T., Otoguro, K., Matsuzaki, K., Moriguchi, R., Tanaka, H., Sasaki, Y., Antibiot., 1991, 44, 113–116; Omura, S., Matsuzaki, K., Fujimoto, T., Kosuge, K., Furuya, T., Fujita, S., Nakagawa, A., J. Antibiot., 1991, 44, 117–118.

Salinosporamide A, the first compound Fenical’s group isolated from Salinospora, not only had a never-before-seen chemical structure 1, but is also a highly selective and potent inhibitor of cancer-cell growth. The compound is an even more effective proteasome inhibitor than omuralide and, in addition, it displays surprisingly high in vitro cytotoxic activity against many tumor cell lines (IC₅₀values of 10 nM or less). Fenical et al. first found the microbe, which they’ve dubbed Salinospora, off the coasts of the Bahamas and in the Red Sea. See,Appl. Environ. Microbiol., 68, 5005 (2002).

Fenical et al. have shown that Salinospora species requires a salt environment to live. Salinospora thrives in hostile ocean-bottom conditions: no light, low temperature, and high pressure. The Fenical group has now identified Salinosporain five oceans, and with 10,000 organisms per cm³of sediment and several distinct strains in each sample; and according to press reports, they’ve been able to isolate 5,000 strains. See, Chemical & Engineering News, 81, 37 (2003).

A great percentage of the cultures Fenical et al. have tested are said to have shown both anticancer and antibiotic activity. Like omuralide 2a, salinosporamide A inhibits the proteasome, an intracellular enzyme complex that destroys proteins the cell no longer needs. Without the proteasome, proteins would build up and clog cellular machinery. Fast-growing cancer cells make especially heavy use of the proteasome, so thwarting its action is a compelling drug strategy. See, Fenical et al., U.S. Patent Publication No. 2003-0157695A1

The chemical name of ramosetron is (−)-(R)-5-[(1-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)carbonyl]-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-benzimidazole, and it has the structure represented by the formula (II).

It is known that ramosetron or a salt thereof has a potent 5-HT₃receptor antagonism (Patent Reference 1, Non-patent references 1 and 2), and it is on the market as a preventive or therapeutic agent for digestive symptoms (nausea, emesis) caused by administration of an anti-malignant tumor agent (cisplatin or the like). In addition, a possibility has been reported that ramosetron or a salt thereof may be useful as an agent for treating diarrheal-type irritable bowel syndrome or an agent for improving diarrheal symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (Patent Reference 1), and its clinical trials are now in progress as an agent for treating diarrheal-type irritable bowel syndrome or an agent for improving diarrheal symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome.

As a process for producing ramosetron or a salt thereof, the following production methods are known.

Patent Reference 1 describes a production method shown by the following Production method A, namely a method for producing a tetrahydrobenzimidazole derivative (V) by allowing a heterocyclic compound (III) to react with a carboxylic acid represented by a formula (IV) or its reactive derivative.

(Production Method A)

(In the formula, X²is a single bond and binds to a carbon atom on the heterocyclic ring represented by Het.)

As an illustrative production method of ramosetron, Patent Reference 1 describes a production method (Production method A-1) in which racemic ramosetron are obtained by using 1-methyl-1H-indole as the compound (III), and N,N-diethyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzimidazole-5-carboxamide or N-[(4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzimidazol-5-yl)carbonyl]pyrrolidine, which are acid amides, as the reactive derivative of compound (IV), and allowing them to undergo treatment with phosphorus oxychloride (Vilsmeyer reaction), and then their optical resolution is carried out by fractional crystallization using (+)-dibenzoyltartaric acid.

In addition, the Patent Reference 1 exemplifies an acid halide as one of the reactive derivatives of the compound (IV), and also describes another production method of the compound (V) (Production method A-2) in which the heterocyclic compound (III) is condensed with an acid halide of the compound (IV) by the Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction using a Lewis acid as the catalyst. However, illustrative production example of ramosetron by the Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction is not described therein.

Also, a method similar to the Production example A-1 is described in Non-patent References 1 and 2 as a production method of ramosetron.

In addition, Non-patent Reference 3 describes a method for producing ramosetron labeled with ¹¹C, represented by a Production method B. However, it discloses only the methylation step, and does not disclose a production method of nor-YM060 as the starting material.

(Production Method B)

(In the formula, nor-YM060 means (R)-5-[(1H-indol-3-yl)carbonyl]-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-benzimidazole which was provided by the present applicant, DMF means dimethylformamide.)

Example 1 : Preparation of the glycolate salt of (5-amino-1H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)methanol

glycolate salt

Glycolic acid (1 L, 70% in water, 11.51 mol) was added to a 5 L flask. To the solution was slowly added aminoguanidine bicarbonate (783.33 g, 5.755 mol) in portions to control significant bubbling. As solids are added, the solution cools due to endothermic dissolution. The solution was gently heated to maintain an internal temp of 25 °C during addition. Ten minutes after complete addition of aminoguanidine bicarbonate, cone. Nitric acid (6.8 ml_) was carefully added. The solution was heated to an internal temperature of 104-108 ⁰C (mild reflux) for 22 h. The heating was discontinued and the solution allowed to cool, with stirring. At an internal temp of aboutδi °C, solids began to crystallize. After the internal temperature was just below 80 ⁰C, ethanol (absolute, 375 mL) was slowly added to the mixture. After the internal temp had cooled to aboutδδ ⁰C₁the cooling was sped up by the use of an ice/water bath. After cooling below rt, the solution became very thick but remained stirrable at all times. The slurry was stirred for 2h at T<10 ⁰C, then filtered and the solids rinsed with ethanol (900 mL cold, then 250 mL rt). The solids were dried overnight in a vacuum oven (about25 mmHg, 45-50 ⁰C) to provide 815.80 g (75%) of (5-amino-1H-1 ,2,4-triazol-3-yl)methanol as the glycolate salt. ¹H (300 MHz, d_e-DMSO): 3.90 (s, 2), 4.24 (s, 2).

Example 2: Preparation of (5,7-dimethyl[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-2-yl)methanol

To a 2L, 3-neck flask was charged glycolate salt of (5-amino-1tf-1 ,2,4-triazol-3-yl)methanol (99.93 g, 0.526 mol), 2,4 pentanedione (0.578 mols, 60 mL), acetic acid (6.70 mL), and EtOH (550 mL). The mixture was heated to a slight reflux. One hour after adding the reagents, the resulting solution was cooled to ambient temperature, and CH₂CI₂ (500 mL) and Celite (25.03 g) were added. After stirring for 1 h, the mixture was filtered through a 4″ Buchner funnel packed with celite (20 g) and rinsed with EtOH (100 mL). The solution was distilled to 5 vols then cooled to 0 °C for 1-2 hours. The slurry was filtered and the cake was rinsed with cold EtOH (2×100 mL). The solids were dried to provide 76.67 g (81.7%) of the title compound.

¹H NMR (300 MHz, d₆-DMSO): 2.57 (s, 3), 2.71 (d, 3, J=0.8), 4.63 (uneven d, 2, J=5.7), 5.49

(t, 1 , J=6.2), 7.13 (d, 1 , J=0.8).

Example 3: Preparation of 5,7-dimethyl[1 ,2,4]triazolo[1 ,5-a]pyrimidine-2-carbaldehyde

To a 10 L reactor was sequentially charged CH₂CI₂ (5.1 L)₁ (5,7- dimethyl[1 ,2,4]triazolo[1 ,5-a]pyrimidin-2-yl)methanol (680 g, 3.816 mol), and iodobenzene diacetate (1352 g, 4.197 mol). As the iodobenzene diacetate dissolves, there is a significant endotherm (typically down to 15-16 ⁰C). The jacket was set to 23 ⁰C. The mixture was warmed to ambient temperature and Tempo (2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy, free radical, 43.75 g, 0.28 mol) added in a single charge. The reaction was stirred until 5% of the starting alcohol remained by HPLC. Once the starting material is adjudged to be less than about about5%, the over-oxidized product begins to be observed. Allowing the reaction to run to further completion leads to an overall diminished yield of the desired product. For this reaction, the desired reaction completion was reached in 2.75 h. MTBE (5.1 L) was then slowly charged to the reactor, causing the product to precipitate, and the slurry stirred for an additional 30 mins. The mixture was filtered, washed twice with 1 :1 DCM/MTBE (2 x 1 L), and dried in a vacuum oven overnight at 50 ⁰C to provide 500.3 g (74%) of 5,7- dimethyl[1,2,4]triazolo[1 ,5-a]pyrimidine-2-carbaldehyde as an off-white solid. ¹H NMR (300 MHz, ds-DMSO): 2.64 (s, 3), 2.78 (d, 3, J=0.8), 7.36 (d, 1 , J=0.9), 10.13 (s, 1). Example 4: Preparation of the dibenzoyl-L-tartaric acid salt of 1-cyclopentyl-3-(2,6- diethylpyridin-4-yl)propan-1-one

DMAC

L-DBTA NEt₃-HOTs + LiBr + NEt₃-HBr THF/MTBE

A nitrogen-purged, 5-L, 3-neck flask containing 4-bromo-2,6-diethylpyridine (250.0 g, 0.6472 mol) was sequentially charged with LiBr (112.42 g, 1.2944 mol), 1-cyclopentyl-prop-2- en-1-ol ( 89.84 g, 0.7119 mol), DMAc (625 mL), and H₂O (55.0 mL). The mixture was cooled to 5-10 ⁰C and was then purged (subsurface) with N₂ for 30 minutes. The flask was charged with Et₃N (198.5 mL, 1.4242 mol) and Pd(OaC)₂ (3.63 g, 0.0162 mol), followed by a careful purge of the headspace. The reaction was heated until the internal temperature reached 95 ⁰C. After stirring at 95 °C for three hours, an aliquot was removed and analyzed by HPLC, showing >99% conversion to 1-cyclopentyl-3-(2,6-diethylpyridin-4-yl)propan-1-one. The reaction was then cooled to 30 ⁰C over 20 min. The flask was charged with H₂O (1500 mL), and MTBE (1500 mL). The solution was stirred well for 5 minutes before the mixture was allowed to settle and the aqueous layer was removed. To the organic layer was charged Celite (62.5Og), and Darco G-60 (6.25g). The slurry was stirred for 20 minutes at 20-25 ⁰C. The slurry was then filtered using a Buchner funnel dressed with Celite. The filter cake was rinsed with MTBE (250 mL). The organic layer was extracted with 5% sodium bicarbonate solution (500 mL) and the phases separated. The organic layer was transferred to a 5 L, three-neck flask, and MTBE added to achieve a total reaction volume of 1750 mL. Additional MTBE (1500 mL) was added and atmospherically distilled until an internal volume of 1750 mL was reached. After cooling below 40 ⁰C, a sample was removed for analysis of water content. After cooling to 20-25 ⁰C, MTBE (250 mL) was added to bring the total volume to 2000 mL and the solution was seeded with crystals of the dibenzoyl-L-tartaric acid salt of 1-cyclopentyl-3-(2,6- diethylpyridin-4-yl)propan-1-one (130 mg), which were prepared according to this procedure. A solution of dibenzoyl-L-tartaric acid (231.89 g, 0.6472 mol) in THF (900 mL) was added over 25 minutes. The slurry was granulated for 1 hour, the mixture was filtered, and the cake rinsed with MTBE (450 mL). The solids were dried in a vacuum oven at 50 ⁰C for 12 h to provide 366.70 g (92% yield) of the title compound. ¹H NMR (300 MHz, d₆-DMSO): 1.19 (t, 6, J=7.6), 1.47-1.81 (m, 8), 2.73 (q, 4, J=7.6), 2.73-2.98 (m, 5), 5.86 (s, 2), 7.00 (S₁ 2), 7.55-7.63 (m, 4), 7.68-7.75 (m, 2), 7.98-8.04 (m, 4).

Example 5: Preparation of 3-cyclopentyl-5-(2,6-diethylpyridin-4-yl)-3-hydroxypentanoic acid

A 3-L, 3-neck flask was charged with the dibenzoyl-L-tartaric acid salt of 1- cyclopentyl-3-(2,6-diethylpyridin-4-yl)propan-1-one (174.95 g, 0.2832 mol), MTBE (875 mL), water (875 mL), and triethanolamine (113.0 mL, 0.8513 mol). After stirring for 2 h at rt, an aliquot of the aqueous phase was removed and analyzed by HPLC, showing no detectable starting material. The solution was transferred to a separatory funnel and the layers separated. The lower aqueous phase was discarded and the upper org. phase was washed with water (150 mL). The organic layer was added to a flask set up for distillation. The solution was distilled down to approx. 183 mL and an aliquot was removed and analyzed for water content. The dry solution of 1-cyclopentyl-3-(2,6-diethylpyridin-4-yl)propan-1-one (th. Wt = 73.47 g) in MTBE was used directly in the next step.

A clean 2-L, 3-neck flask was charged with LiHMDS (1.0 M in THF, 355 mL, 0.355 mol) and purged with nitrogen. The flask was cooled to -34 ⁰C. An addition funnel was then charged with EtOAc (35 mL, 0.3583 mol) and this reagent was slowly added to the reaction vessel at such a rate that the low temperature of the vessel could be maintained. After complete EtOAc addition another addition funnel was charged with the 1-cyclopentyl-3-(2,6- diethylpyridin-4-yl)propan-1-one solution (crude MTBE soln from prior reaction, theor. 73.47 g, 0.2832 mol) and rinsed over with THF (anhydrous, 5 ml_). The 1-cyclopentyl-3-(2,6- diethylpyridin-4-yl)propan-1-one solution was slowly added to the reaction flask at such a rate that the low internal temperature could be maintained. Five minutes after complete addition, a reaction aliquot was removed and analyzed by HPLC, showing less than 1% 1-cyclopentyl-3- (2,6-diethylpyridin-4-yl)propan-1-one. Ten minutes after complete ketone addition, the bath was switched to O ⁰C. Once the internal temperature had warmed to -10 ⁰C, 1 M NaOH (510 mL) was added. After complete NaOH soln addition, the reaction was heated to 50 ⁰C. After 21 hours the reaction solution was cooled below 30 ⁰C and an aliquot of both layers was removed and analyzed for completion. The mixture was added to a separatory funnel with MTBE (350 mL) and the phases were mixed well and separated. An aliquot of the organic phase was analyzed by HPLC, verifying no significant product, and this layer was discarded. The aqueous phase was added to a flask with CH₂CI₂(350 mL). Concentrated aqueous HCI (about 100 mL) was slowly added to the aqueous phase until the pH = 5. The mixture was added back to a separatory funnel and mixed well. The phases were separated and the aqueous layer was extracted a second time with CH₂CI₂ (150 mL). The organic layers were combined and charged to a clean flask set up for distillation. The solution was distilled down to 370 mL then displaced with THF by addition of solvent portions followed by continued distillation down to 370 mL after each addition. When the distillation head temp, held steady at 65 °C for 30 min an aliquot was removed and analyzed by ¹H NMR, showing a 12.5:1 ratio of THF:CH₂CI₂. The solution of 3-cyclopentyl-5-(2,6-diethylpyridin-4-yl)-3-hydroxypentanoic acid in THF was used directly in the next step.

Identification of any publication in this section or any section of this application is not an admission that such publication is prior art to the present invention.

The compound of Formula I is generically and specifically disclosed in

Published U.S. Patent No.2007/0042968, published February 22, 2007 (the ‘968 publication), incorporated herein by reference.

Processes suitable for making the compound of Formula I are generally described in the ‘968 publication. In particular, the ‘968 publication discusses preparing a sulfone carbamate compound, for example, the compound of Formula 837 comprising a cyclic sulfone substituent (paragraphs [0395] through [0403]). The following reaction scheme describes the procedure:

The process disclosed in the ‘968 publication produces the intermediate alcohol in step S7 as a mixture of diastereomers at the hydroxyl group; while this chiral center is lost in the final step of the disclosed process, the alcohol intermediate as a mixture of isomers cannot be crystallized and required a volumetrically inefficient precipitative isolation that did not remove any impurities

Preparation of Compound VIJ

LDA was made by slowly charging n-butyl lithium (2.5 M, 159 kg) to diisopropyl amine (60 kg) dissolved in THF (252 kg), keeping the temperature at about −20° C., followed by agitation at this temperature for about 30 min. To this solution was charged cyclohexane carboxylic acid, methyl ester (70 kg), keeping the temperature below −10° C. The mixture was agitated at this temperature for about 2 h. To the resulting enolate was charged TMSCI (64.4 kg). The mixture was agitated at −10 to −20° C. for about 30 min, and then heated to about 25° C. and held at this temperature to allow for conversion to the silylenol ether Compound VIH. The reaction mixture was solvent exchanged to n-heptane under vacuum, keeping the temperature below 50° C., resulting in the precipitation of solids. The solids were filtered and washed with n-heptane, and the wash was combined with the n-heptane reaction mixture. The n-heptane mixture of Compound VIH was concentrated under vacuum and diluted with CH₂Cl₂.

In a separate reactor was charged CH₂Cl₂(461 kg) and anhydrous ZnBr₂(14.5 kg). The temperature of the zinc slurry was adjusted to about 20° C. To the zinc slurry was simultaneously charged the solution of Compound VIH and 2-chloromethylsulfanyl-2-methyl-propane (63.1 kg, ref: Bioorg. Med. Chem. Lett, 1996, 6, 2053-2058), keeping the temperature below 45° C. After complete addition, the mixture was agitated for about 1.5 h at 35 to 45° C., after which the reaction mixture was cooled to 10 to 15° C. A solution of dilute aqueous HCl was then charged, keeping the temperature between 0 and 15° C., followed by a separation of the aqueous and organic layers (desired compound in organic layer). The organic layer was washed with aqueous NaHCO₃and water. The organic layer was solvent exchanged to methanol by vacuum distillation, keeping the temperature below 35° C., and kept as a solution in methanol for further processing to Compound VIK. Active Yield of Compound VIJ=69.7 kg (molar yield=57.9%).

Preparation of Compound VIK

To a fresh reactor was charged Compound VIJ (99.8 kg active in a methanol solution), water (270 kg), NaOH (70 kg), and methanol (603 kg). The mixture was heated to −70° C. and agitated at this temperature for about 16 h. Upon conversion to the sodium salt of Compound VIK, the reaction mixture was concentrated under vacuum, keeping the temperature below 55° C., and then cooled to about 25° C. Water and MTBE were then charged, agitiated, and the layers were separated (product in the aqueous layer). The product-containing aqueous layer was further washed with MTBE.

CH₂Cl₂was charged to the aqueous layer and the temperature was adjusted to ˜10° C. The resultant mixture was acidified to a pH of about 1.5 with HCl, agitated, settled, and separated (the compound was in the organic layer). The aqueous layer was extracted with CH₂Cl₂, and the combined organic layers were stored as a CH₂Cl₂solution for further processing to Compound VID. Active yield of Compound VIK=92.7 kg (molar yield=98.5 kg). MS Calculated: 230.13; MS Found (ES−, M−H): 229.11.

Preparation of Compound VID

To a reactor was charged water (952 kg), Oxone® (92.7 kg), and Compound VIK (92.7 kg active as a solution in CH₂Cl₂). The reaction mixture was agitated for about 24 h at a temperature of about 15° C., during which time Compound VIK oxidized to sulfone Compound VID. The excess Oxone® was quenched with aqueous Na₂S₂O₅, the reaction mixture was settled and the layers separated; the aqueous layer was back-extracted with CH₂Cl₂, and the combined product-containing organic layers were washed with water.

The resultant solution was then concentrated under vacuum. To precipitate Compound VID, n-heptane was charged, and the resulting slurry was agitated for about 60 min at a temperature of about 30° C. The reaction mixture was filtered, and the wet cake was washed with n-heptane. The wet cake was redissolved in CH₂Cl₂, followed by the addition of n-heptane. The resultant solution was then concentrated under vacuum, keeping the temperature below 35° C., to allow for product precipitation. The resultant solution was cooled to about 0° C. and agitated at this temperature for about 1 h. The solution was filtered, the wet cake was washed with n-heptane, and dried under vacuum at about 45° C. to yield 68.7 kg Compound VID (molar yield=65.7%). MS Calculated: 262.37; MS Found (ES−, M−H): 261.09

Preparation of Compound VI

To a reactor was charged Compound VID (68.4 kg), toluene (531 kg), and Et₃N (31 kg). The reaction mixture was atmospherically refluxed under Dean-Stark conditions to remove water (target KF <0.05%). The reaction temperature was adjusted to 80° C., DPPA (73.4 kg) was charged over 7 h, and the mixture was agitated for an additional 2 h. After conversion to isocyanate Compound VIE via the azide, the reaction mixture was cooled to about 0 to 5° C. and quenched with aqueous NaHCO₃. The resultant mixture was agitated, settled and the layers were separated. The aqueous layer was extracted with toluene, and the combined isocyante Compound VIE organic layers were washed with water.

In a separate vessel was charged L-tert- Leucine (L-Tle, 30.8 kg), water (270 kg), and Et₃N (60 kg). While keeping the temperature at about 5° C., the toluene solution of Compound VIE was transferred to the solution of L-Tle. The reaction mixture was stirred at 0 to 5° C. for about 5 h, at which time the mixture was heated to 15 to 20° C. and agitated at this temperature for 2 h to allow for conversion to urea Compound VI.

The reaction was quenched by the addition of aqueous NaOH, keeping the temperature between 0 and 25° C. The reaction mixture was separated, and the organic layer was extracted with water. The combined Compound VI-containing aqueous layers were washed with toluene, and acidified to pH 2 by the addition of HCl, at which time the product precipitated from solution. The reaction mixture was filtered, washed with water and dried under vacuum at 65 to 70° C. to yield 79.7 kg crude Compound VI (molar yield 52.7%). MS Calculated: 390.54; MS Found (ES−, M−H): 389.20.

The reaction mixture was cooled to about 5° C., and NMM (35 kg) and EDCi (53.4 kg) were charged. The reaction was heated to 20 to 25° C. for about 1 h, and then to 35 to 40° C., at which time water was charged to crystallize Compound Va. The reaction mixture was cooled to 5° C. and held at this temperature for about 4 h. Compound Va was filtered and washed with water. XRD data for the hydrated polymorph of Va is as follows:

The Compound Va wet cake was charged to a fresh vessel and was dissolved in ethyl acetate at 25 to 30° C. The solution was washed with an aqueous HCl solution, aqueous K₂CO₃solution, and brine. The solution was then concentrated under vacuum, keeping the temperature between 35 to 50° C. Additional ethyl acetate was charged, and the solution was heated to 65 to 70° C. While keeping the temperature at 65 to 70° C., n-heptane was charged, followed by cooling the resultant solution to 0 to 5° C. Compound Va was filtered and washed with an ethyl acetate/n-heptane mix.

The wet cake was dried under vacuum between 55 to 60° C. to yield 96.6 kg crystalline Compound Va (molar yield 79.2%). MS Calculated: 541.32; MS Found (ES+, M+H): 542.35.

Pyridine (92 L) was charged to the reactor and was cooled to 5° C. To the cooled pyridine was slowly charged malonic acid (48.5 kg) and valeraldehyde (59 L), keeping the temperature below 25° C. The reaction was stirred between 25 to 35° C. for at least 60 h. After this time, H₂SO₄was charged to acidify, keeping the temperature below 30° C. The reaction mixture was then extracted into MTBE. The organic layer was washed with water. In a separate reactor was charged water and NaOH. The MTBE solution was charged to the NaOH solution, keeping the temperature below 25° C., and the desired material was extracted into the basic layer. The basic layer was separated and the organic layer was discarded. MTBE was charged, the mixture was agitated, settled, and separated, and the organic layer was discarded. To the resultant solution (aqueous layer) was charged water and H₂SO₄to acidify, keeping the temperature between 10 to 15° C. To the acidified mixture was charged MTBE, keeping the temperature below 25° C. The resultant solution was agitated, settled, and separated, and the aqueous layer was discarded.

The pressure was released, and a solution of K₂CO₃was charged to the reaction mixture, which was agitated and settled, and the bottom aqueous layer was then separated. The resultant organic solution was washed with water and distilled under vacuum (temp below 45° C.) to yield 13.5 kg Compound IIIC (molar yield=88.3%) as a yellow oil.

Preparation of Compound IIID

To a reactor capable of maintaining a temperature of −60° C. was charged (S)-benzyl-1-phenyl ethylamine (18 kg) and THF (75 L). The reaction mixture was cooled to −60° C. To the mixture was charged n-hexyl lithium (42 L of 2.3 M in heptane) while maintaining a temperature of −65 to −55° C., followed by a 30 min agitation within this temperature range. To the in situ-formed lithium amide was charged Compound IIIC over 1 h, keeping the temperature between −65 to −55° C. . The reaction mixture was agitated at this temperature for 30 min to allow for conversion to the enolate intermediate. To the resultant reaction mixture was charged (+)-camphorsulfonyl oxaziridine (24 kg) as a solid, over a period of 2 h, keeping the temperature between −65 to −55° C. . The mixture was agitated at this temperature for 4 h.

The resultant reaction mixture was quenched by the addition of acetic acid (8 kg), keeping the temperature between −60 to −40° C. The mixture was warmed to 20 to 25° C., then charged into a separate reactor containing heptane. The resultant mixture was concentrated under vacuum, keeping the temperature below 35° C. Heptane and water were charged to the reaction mixture, and the precipitated solids were removed by filtration (the desired compound is in the supernatant). The cake was washed with heptane and this wash was combined with the supernatant. The heptane/water solution was agitated, settled, and separated to remove the aqueous layer. An aqueous solution of H₂SO₄was charged, and the mixture was agitated, settled, and separated. The heptane layer was washed with a solution of K₂CO₃.

Tolvaptan is also in fast-track clinical trials[2] for polycystic kidney disease. In a 2004 trial, tolvaptan, when administered with traditional diuretics, was noted to increase excretion of excess fluids and improve blood sodium levels in patients with heart failure without producing side effects such as hypotension (low blood pressure) or hypokalemia(decreased blood levels of potassium) and without having an adverse effect on kidney function.[3] In a recently published trial (TEMPO 3:4 ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT00428948) the study met its primary and secondary end points. Tolvaptan, when given at an average dose of 95 mg per day over a 3-year period, slowed the usual increase in kidney volume by 50% compared to placebo (2.80% per year versus 5.51% per year, respectively, p<0.001) and reduced the decline in kidney function when compared with that of placebo-treated patients by approximately 30% (reciprocal serum creatinine, -2.61 versus -3.81 (mg/mL)-1 per year, p <0.001)[4]

Tolvaptan was first approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on May 19, 2009, then approved by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) on August 3, 2009 and approved by Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency of Japan on Feb 4, 2013. It was developed and marketed as Samsca^® by Otsuka in the US, DE and JP.

UPDATED

Tolvaptan is a selective vasopressin V₂-receptor antagonist with an affinity for the V₂-receptor that is 1.8 times that of native arginine vasopressin (AVP) and that is 29 times greater than for the V_1a-receptor. When taken orally, 15 to 60 mg doses of tolvaptan antagonize the effect of vasopressin and cause an increase in urine water excretion that results in an increase in free water clearance (aquaresis), a decrease in urine osmolality, and a resulting increase in serum sodium concentrations. It is indicated for the treatment of clinically significant hypervolemic and euvolemic hyponatremia [serum sodium < 125 mEq/L or less marked hyponatremia that is symptomatic and has resisted correction with fluid restriction], including patients with heart failure, cirrhosis, and syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH).

Samsca^® is available as tablet for oral use, containing 7.5 mg/15 mg/30 mg of free Tolvaptan. The recommended starting dose is 15 mg once daily and it may be increased at intervals ≥ 24 hr to 30 mg once daily, and to a maximum of 60 mg once daily as needed to raise serum sodium.

Biooganic and Medicinal Chemistry I (2007) 6455-6458, Biooganic andMedicinal Chemistry 14 (2000) 2493-2495 reported in the literature of the intermediate 2 – carboxylic acid -5 – (2 – methyl-benzoylamino) toluene synthesis method,

5-Chloro-2-nitrobenzoic acid (I) was converted into methyl ester (II) using dimethyl sulfate and K2CO3 in acetone. The nitro group of (II) was then reduced with SnCl2 to afford aniline (III), which was protected as the p-toluenesulfonamide (IV) with tosyl chloride in pyridine. Alkylation of (IV) with ethyl 4-bromobutyrate (V) yielded diester (VI). Subsequent Dieckmann cyclization of (VI) in the presence of potassium tert-butoxide provided benzazepinone (VIIa-b) as a mixture of ethyl and methyl esters, which was decarboxylated to (VIII) by heating with HCl in AcOH. Deprotection of the tosyl group of (VIII) was carried out in hot polyphosphoric acid. The resulting benzazepinone (IX) was condensed with 2-methyl-4-nitrobenzoyl chloride (X) to give amide (XI). After reduction of the nitro group of (XI) to the corresponding aniline (XII), condensation with 2-methylbenzoyl chloride (XIII) provided diamide (XIV). Finally, ketone reduction in (XIV) by means of NaBH4 led to the target compound.

Tolvaptan, sold under the brand name Samsca among others, is an aquaretic drug that functions as a selective, competitive vasopressin receptor 2 (V₂) antagonist used to treat hyponatremia (low blood sodium levels) associated with congestive heart failure, cirrhosis, and the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH). Tolvaptan was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on May 19, 2009, and is sold by Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co. under the trade name Samsca.^[8] Tolvaptan, as Jynarque, was granted approval for medical use in the United States in April 2018.^[9]

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted tolvaptan a fast track designation for clinical trials investigating its use for the treatment of polycystic kidney disease.^[10] The FDA granted Jynarque an orphan drug designation in April 2012, for the treatment of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease.^[11]

Tolvaptan is available as a generic medication.^[12]

Medical uses

Tolvaptan (Samsca) is indicated for the treatment of clinically significant hypervolemic and euvolemic hyponatremia.^[13]

Tolvaptan (Jynarque) is indicated to slow kidney function decline in adults at risk of rapidly progressing autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD).^[14]

Side effects

The FDA has determined that tolvaptan should not be used for longer than 30 days and should not be used in patients with underlying liver disease because it can cause liver injury, potentially leading to liver failure.^[15] When using to treat hyponatremia, it may cause too rapid correction of hyponatremia resulting in fatal osmotic demyelination syndrome.^[16]

Pharmacology

Tolvaptan is a selective vasopressin V₂ receptor antagonist.^[13]^[14]

Chemistry

Tolvaptan is a racemate, a 1:1 mixture of the following two enantiomers:^[17]
