Description
"Process for and intermediates of leukotriene antagonists"
Technical Field: The present invention provides a novel method of producing Montelukast sodium and novel intermediates therefore.
Background of the invention:
Leukotrienes are autocrine and paracrine eicosanoid lipid mediators derived from arachidonic acid by 5-lipoxygenase. It has been found that antagonists to leukotrienes can perform valuable functions in the treatment or amelioration of certain disease states, particularly those associated with inflammation.
By way of example only, Montelukast sodium (structural formula VIII, below), is an important leukotriene antagonist and useful in the treatment of asthma and other related disorders.
VH
Several synthetic routes for leukotriene antagonists such as Montelukast sodium have been developed. In relation to Montelukast sodium, the -Keto ester (VH') is an important intermediate in these processes (WO 2006/021974 Al). In the past, the desired P-Keto ester (VH') has been obtained through a sequence of steps consisting of [1] the condensation of 7-chloroquinaldine and isophthalaldehyde in presence of acetic anhydride [2] the reaction of the resulting aldehyde with methyl magnesium halide to
produce a secondary alcohol [3] oxidation of the secondary alcohol to give an aromatic ketone and [4) reaction of the aromatic ketone with dialkylcarbonate.
However, the synthetic strategy of the condensation of 7-chioroquinaldine with isophthalaldehyde has a number of significant disadvantages which limit the utility of the synthesis. These include: the formation of a number of by-products and a relatively low yield (US 5,869,673). Further, prior methods use expensive reagents such as methyl magnesium halides, oxalyl halides. etc., making the economically inefficient.
The reference to any prior art in this specification is not, and should not be taken as, an acknowledgement or any form of suggestion that the pRlor art forms part of the common general knowledge.
