L-talopyranoside derivatives and process for the preparation of same

FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a L-talopyranoside derivative which is a very useful intermediate for synthesis of anthracyclines and to a process for the preparation of the same.
DESCRIPTION OF PRIOR ART
Anthracycline antibiotics are known to be very useful anticancer agents.
As anthracycline anticancer agents, there have been known Daunomycin (U.S. Pat. No. 3,616,242) and Adriamycin (U.S. Pat. No. 3,590,028), which show a broad anti-cancer spectrum and an anti-tumor activity against the tumors and are widely used as chemotherapeutic agents for cancer.
These compounds may be represented by the following formula (A): ##STR3## wherein, R represents hydrogen atom or a hydroxyl group. However, Daunomycin, a compound of the above formula(A) in which R is hydrogen atom, and Adriamycin, a compound of the above formula(A) in which R is a hydroxyl group have severe adverse effects such as leukopenia, depilation or myocardiac disorder when used for cancer-chemotherapy.
Extensive studies have been conducted to avoid the above drawbacks and the various derivatives in which the structure of the sugar skeleton is modified have been reported.
For example, inter alia the compound variants which are substituted by iodine in 2-position of the sugar skeleton were disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,562,177 and those substituted by fluorine were disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication Nos. 62-145,097 and 63-141,992 and Korean Patent Application Nos. 89-15,375 and 90-17,084.
These compound variants may be represented by the following formula(B): ##STR4## wherein, R is hydrogen atom, a hydroxyl group, a group of the formula; ##STR5## H in which m is an integer of 0 to 6, a group of the formula; ##STR6## COOH in which n is an integer of 0 to 6, or a group of the formula; in which Y is ##STR7## in which R.sub.3 is hydrogen atom, a straight or branched alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon aroma, or a straight or branched alkoxycarbonyl group having 1 to 10 carbon aroma, R.sub.4 and R.sub.5 are independently hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon aroma, n is an integer of 0 to 10, p it an interger of 1 to 5; and
Hal is a halogen atom, for example fluorine, chlorine, iodine or bromine.
These compounds were known to have an improved anti-tumor activity as well as a reduced toxicity. In particular, the compound into which amine group is introduced in 14-position has a high solubility in water and shows an excellent anti-tumor activity.
The structural characteristic of these compounds is that they are substituted by a halogen atom in 2'-position of the sugar skeleton. 2'-halogen substituted sugars are characterized by that their glycoside linkage is stable against hydrolysis using acid and that they show an increased anti-tumor activity as wall as a reduced toxcity due to properties of the halogen atom, in particular fluorine atom.
The preparation of 2,6-dideoxy-2-halo-.alpha.-L-talose derivatives, which are important intermediates for synthesis of anthracycline agents, are disclosed, for example in Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 62-145,096, Carbohydrate Research 169, 69-81 (1987) and J. Antibiotics, 39(5), 731-733 (1986) and may be shown by the following reaction scheme: ##STR8## However, the above known process starting from L-fucose to prepare 1,3,4-tri-O-acetyl-2,6-dideoxy-2-fluoro-.alpha.-L-talopyranose has some disadvantages such that it cannot be employed on an industrial scale because it requires multiple reaction steps, and L-fucose, a starting material, is very expensive(US$5,468/kg according to Aldrich Catalogues, '90-'91) and can not be available easily due to its limited supply.
Therefore, there still remains a need to develop intermediates for synthesis of anthracycline, which can be prepared by a simple process with a high yield. And there also remains a need to develop a process for the preparation of the intermediates which employs an inexpensive starting material and can be applied on an industrial scale.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
A need to provide a process for preparing anthracyclines which can be applied on an industrial scale with a low cost, prompted to the present inventors to search for a cheap starting material which can replace the conventional expensive starting material, L-fucose and to search for a simple process for preparing an intermediate for synthesis of anthracyclines. .alpha.-D-glucose, which is employed in place of L-fucose as a starting material according to the process of the invention is very cheap(US$4.33/kg, Aldrich Catalogues '90-'91) compared with L-fucose(US$5,468/kg, Aldrich catalogues '90-'91). Thus, the price of .alpha.-D-glucose is 1/1262 times lower than that of L-fucose. Further, .alpha.-D-glucose is easily, available in large quantities without difficulty.
L-talopyranoside derivatives according to the invention, which are useful intermediates for the preparation of anthracyclines, may be prepared by starting from .alpha.-D-glucose. According to the invention, L-talopyranoside derivatives may be prepared by the following reaction schemes 1 and 2: ##STR21##
In the above schemes, A and X have the same meanings as defined above.
Each reaction steps will be described in detail herein after. First, tri-O-acetyl-D-glucal(2) is prepared from .alpha.-D-glucose(1) by the known methods, for example the process described in Methods in Carbohydrate Chemistry, Academic Press, Roy L. Whistler, 2, p. 405-408. Then, tri-O-acetyl-D-glucal(2) is reacted with fluorine in the presence of solvent with reference to the method described in Carbohydrate Research 153, p. 141-145 (1986) to give a mixture of compounds (3) and (4) in a ratio of 6:4.
As a solvent, water or organic solvent such as acetonitrile or mixtures thereof may be employed.
According to the scheme 1, the compound (3) is reacted with acetyl chloride and methanol in benzene to give compound (5) as a mixture of .alpha.- and .beta.-anomer in a ratio of 2:3.
The compound (5) is reacted with benzaldehyde dimethyl acetel to give compound (7).
The compound (7) is mesylated in 3-hydroxyl group by reacting with mesyl chloride and the compound (12) obtained is reacted with a metal salt of organic or inorganic acid to give the compound (13-1). Metal salts of organic or inorganic acid which can be employed may include sodium or potassium salts of organic or inorganic acid. For example, sodium benzoate or sodium acetate are advantageously employed.
In addition to mesyl chloride, para-toluenesulfonyl chloride or trifluoromethane sulfonyl anhydride may be used as a leaving group reagent.
Thus prepared compound (13-1) is reacted with N-halosuccinimide and barium carbonate in carbon tetrachloride to give the compound of the formula (14-1) in which X is a halogen atom. The reaction temperature varies between room temperature and the boiling point of the solvent employed. The boiling point of the solvent is preferred.
Besides, the compound (13-1) is first debenzylidenated and halogenated to give the compound of the formula (14) in which X is a halogen atom.
The compound (14-1) is reacted with a metal halide in the presence of amine to give the compounds (15-1). As a metal halide, there may be employed for example silver halide. As an amine solvent, for example pyridine is used. For this reaction, in addition to metal halide, other metal salts, sodium methoxide, DBU(1,8-diazabicyclo [5,4,0] undecen-7-ene) or soda lime also may be employed to promote the formation of double bond.
As a metal halide, silver halide, in particular silver fluoride is preferred.
The compounds (15-1) are subjected to hydrogenation by using a metal reducing catalyst such as palladium, Raney-Nickel or platinium to give the compound (16-1). As a metal reducing catalyst, Palladium/Carbon is advantageously employed. The hydrogenation may carried out under room or atmospheric or high pressure and at the temperature between room temperature and boiling point of the solvent employed. Preferably, the reaction is carried out at room temperature under atmospheric pressure. Further, if necessary, steric isomers of the compound (16-1) may be purified by silica gel column chromatography using, for example, methylene chloride as an eluant. L-isomer of the compounds (16-1) is preferred.
According to the scheme 2, the compound (4) prepared as described in the scheme 1 is reacted with acetyl chloride and methanol in benzene to give the compound (6) as a mixture of .alpha.-and .beta.-anomer in a ratio of 8:1.
The compound (6) is reacted with benzaldehyde dimethyl acetel to give the compound (8). The compound(8) which is in a allo-form is also obtained from the gluco-form compound (7) by an inversion In 3-position hydroxyl group.
The compound (8) is oxidized in 3-position and the resulting compound (9) is treated with an alkali to give the compound (10), which is subjected to hydrogenation. The compound (11), which is obtained with a high yield from the compound (10), is then benzoylated to give the compounds (13-2).
In oxidation of the compound (8), pyridinium chlorochormate, dimethyl sulfoxide or anhydrous acetic acid is employed as an oxidizing agent. For the hydrogenation of the compound (10), metal reducing catalysts or metal hydrides are properly used as a reducing agent. In particular, sodium borohydride may be advantageously employed. The benzoylation of the compound (11) is carried out in pyridine by using benzoyl chloride. Thus obtained compound (13-2) is treated as shown in the scheme 1 to give the compound (16-2).
Then, the compounds (16-1) and (16-2) may be debenzoylated by using sodium methoxide to give the compounds (17-1) and (17-2), respectively, which can be preferably further subjected to acetolysis and halogenetion in order to be reacted with adriamycinon or daunomycinon.
The acetolysis may be carried out by using anhydrous acetic acid, acetic acid and a catalytic amount of sulfuric acid in the presence of nitromethane solvent. Subsequently, the halogenetion may be carried out by reacting with titanium tetrabromide.
Thus obtained halogenated compounds (I) in which B.sub.1 and B.sub.2 are acetyl group may be reacted adriamycinon or daunomycinon to give anthracyclines as follows: ##STR22## wherein, R is hydrogen atom, a hydroxyl group, a group of the formula; ##STR23## H in which m is an integer of 0 to 6, a group of the formula; ##STR24## COOH in which n is an integer of 0 to 6, or a group of the formula; ##STR25## in which Y is ##STR26## in which R.sub.3 is hydrogen atom, a straight or branched alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, or a straight or branched alkoxycarbonyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, R.sub.4 and R.sub.5 are independently hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, n is an integer of 0 to 10 and p is an integer of 1 to 5.
3,4-di-O-acetyl-2,6-deoxy-2-fluoro-.alpha.-L-talopyranosyl bromide obtained in the above and daunomycinone were reacted together in the presence of mercuric oxide, mercuric bromide and molecular sieve 3A in anhydrous methylene chloride and the resulting compounds are deprotected by deacetylating the sugar skeleton to give daunomycin derivatives (B) in which R is hydrogen atom.
Moreover, adriamycin derivatives (B) in which R is hydroxyl group may be prepared by brominating adriamycin derivatives in which R is hydrogen atom with bromine and reacting with sodium formate and then 40% aqueous acetic acid solution. When compounds (B) in which R is bromine are obtained, they are reacted with monosodium Dimelate or sodium t-butyloxycarbonyl glycinate and then deprotected to give the desired adriamycin or daunomycin derivatives.
The invention being generally described, a more complete understanding can be attained by reference to the examples which are provided herein for purposes of illustration only, and are not intended to limit the invention unless otherwise specified.
