The present invention relates to a method of introducing deuterated lower-alkyl into a secondary amino group in a compound having the secondary amine, in more detail, a method of deuterated-lower-alkylating a linear or chained amine group whose amino nitrogen is already protected with an aralkyl, under neutral or basic condition.
Drug substances are generally metabolized with an enzyme in liver and thereby the effect, thereof disappears. Thus, the improvement of the metabolism is expected to bring in 3ome therapeutic advantages such as safety, availability, tolerability, and utility.
The structure of the metabolic site, which is variable with metabolism-type, may depend on the whole chemical structure of drug substances, and N-methyl is one of the main metabolic sites. It has been known that a drug substance having N-methyl therein can get inactivated about its effect when the N-methyl is demethylated. Thus, if hydrogen atom(s) in N-methyl is replaced by deuterium atom(s), the character of the methyl site can be changed, which is expected to bring in delaying the N-demethylation to improve the metabolic stability, further which is expected to bring in the therapeutic advantages mentioned above. Hence, many trials have been done until now (Patent Literature 1, Non-Patent Literatures 1 and 2).
A method of replacing hydrogen atom by deuterium atom is disclosed, in which deuterated methyl is incorporated into a piperazine derivative by reacting with methyl-d3 4-methylbenzenesulfonate (Patent Literature 2) . The incorporation method produces N,N-dimethyl form as a by-product. However, it is hard to prevent the N,N-dimethylation, and the method has a problem of reducing the yield.

It has been desired to develop a method of introducing mono-deuterated lower-alkyl into a linear or chained secondary amine while reducing the production of by-products, which has broad utility and brings in high yield.
The present, inventors have extensively studied and then have found that the desired N-mono-deuterated lower-alkyl compound can be prepared from a linear or chained secondary amine compound in high yield without producing its di-deuterated lower-alkylated by-product, by replacing the hydrogen atom in the secondary amine by aralkyl such as benzyl, deuterated-lower-alkylating the obtained amine derivative under neutral or basic condition, and then eliminating the aralkyl. Based upon the new findings, the present invention has been completed.
The present invention includes the following embodiments.
replacing the hydrogen atom in the secondary amine by an aralkyl,
lower-alkylating the obtained tertiary amine with a deuterated-lower-alkylating agent under neutral or basic condition, and then
eliminating the aralkyl group.
As for the method of incorporating deuterated lower-alkyl, into a secondary amine, the present invention makes it possible to effectively mono-deuterated-lower-alkylate the amine without producing its di-deuterated lower-alkylated by-product, by replacing the hydrogen atom in the amine by aralkyl temporarily, deuterated-lower-alkylating the obtained amine with a deuterated-lower-alkylating agent, and then deprotecting the aralkyl.
The present invention can suppress the production of a by-product such as N,N-di-deuterated lower-alkyl compound, thus the yield of the desired product based on an expensive d3-methylating agent or d5-ethylating agent can be maximized and additionally the residual unreacted amine compound can be minimized, and thereby the industrial manufacture cost. can be reduced. Methyl-d3 methanesulfonate and methyl-d3 benzenesulfonate which can be used as a d3-methylating agent in the present invention can be prepared from highly pure deuterated methanol (CD3OD, methanol-d4) which is widely used as deuterium source, thus it is expected to bring in further costcut. In addition, deuterated methanol which is a starting material of the deuterated-methylating agent having sulfonate group is highly safe in handling such as carriage since deuterated methanol has no mutagenesis like CD3I.
Each phrase and term used herein are explained below.
The term “aralkyl” used herein for protecting a secondary amine denotes an alkyl group wherein one of hydrogen atoms in the alkyl is replaced by an aryl group, which includes, for example, benzyl derivative, in more detail, benzyl, 4-nitrobenzyl, 4-methoxybenzyl, 2-nitrobenzyl, 4-chlorobenzyl, 2,6-dichlorobenzyl, 4-methylbenzyl, and 2,4,6-trimethylbenzyl.

Exemplified methods to introduce such aralkyl into a secondary amine include methods disclosed in T. W. Greene and P. G. M. Wuts, “Greene's Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis”, 4th edition, Wiley, New York 2006, or similar methods. For example, they include a method of treating with a halogenated benzyl in the presence of a base, and a reductive amination in which an amine compound is reacted with a benzaldehyde compound to give its imine compound which is reduced with a reducing agent such as sodium borohydride, cyanosodium borohydride, and sodium triacetoxyborohydride.
The elimination (deprotection) of an aralkyl may be also carried out according to methods disclosed in T. W. Greene and P. G. M. Wuts, “Greene's Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis”, 4th edition, Wiley, New York 2006, or similar methods. For example, for benzyl or p-methoxybenzyl, the protecting group can be removed by hydrogenation with palladium catalyst, or under a mild acidic condition with DDQ, CAN, or the like.
The term “deuterated lower-alkyl” used herein denotes an alkyl in which one or more hydrogen atoms in the lower-alkyl is replaced by deuterium, wherein the lower-alkyl includes, for example, methyl and ethyl, and preferably methyl.
