Abstract
A process for synthesizing carbonic anhydrase inhibitors is disclosed.
Description

This invention is directed to a process for synthesizing carbonic anhydrase inhibitors which are useful in the control of ocular hypertension. The invention also relates to novel intermediate compounds, which are integral to the claimed process.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Certain (R)-3,4-dihydro-4-alkylamino-2-substituted-2H-thieno[3,2-e]-1,2-thiazine-6-sulfonamide-1,1-dioxides of the structural formula I (shown below) have previously been prepared by resolution of the racemate via the di-p-toluoyl-D-tartaric acid salt or from (S)-3,4-dihydro-4-hydroxy-2-substituted-2H-thieno[3,2-e]-1,2-thiazine-6-sulfonamide-1,1-dioxides by activation of the C(4)-hydroxyl group and displacement with the appropriate amine. Both of these methods, as well as a process for the preparation of the requisite (S)-3,4-dihydro-4-hydroxy-2-substituted-2H-thieno[3,2-e]-1,2-thiazine-6-sulfonamide-1,1-dioxides from 3-acetylthiophene, are disclosed by Dean et al. in PCT/U.S. Ser. No. 91/02262. The present invention provides an improved process for the preparation of (R)-3,4-dihydro-4-alkylamino-2-substituted-2H-thieno[3,2-e]-1,2-thiazine-6-sulfonamide-1,1-dioxides from 3-acetyl-2,5-dichlorothiophene.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention provides a process for the synthesis of (R)-3,4-dihydro-4-alkylamino-2-substituted-2H-thieno[3,2-e]-1,2-thiazine-6-sulfonamide-1,1-dioxides of the structural formula I from 3-acetyl-2,5-dichlorothiophene: ##STR1## wherein: R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are both chosen from H or C.sub.1-4 alkyl; R.sub.3 =C.sub.1-6 alkyl, CH.sub.2 (CH.sub.2).sub.n OR.sub.4 where R.sub.4 =CH.sub.3 or (CH.sub.2).sub.n CH.sub.3 and n=1-4; or (CH.sub.2).sub.n Ar where Ar=unsubstituted phenyl, 3-methoxyphenyl, or 4-methoxyphenyl and n=1 or 2.
The reaction scheme can be summarized as involving the following steps: ##STR2##
The process comprises displacing the C(2)-chloro of 3-acetyl-2,5-dichlorothiophene (1) with benzyl mercaptide to form the thioether of structure (2), which is then converted to 3-acetyl-5-chloro-2-thiophenesulfonamide (3) by reaction with chlorine to form 3-acetyl-5-chloro-2-thiophenesulfenyl chloride, followed by reaction with ammonia to form 3-acetyl-5-chloro-2-thiophenesulfenamide, and finally oxidation. Bromination provides 3-bromoacetyl-5-chloro-2-thiophenesulfonamide (4), which is converted to (S)-3,4-dihydro-6-chloro-4-hydroxy-2H-thieno[3,2-e]-1,2-thiazine-1,1-dioxide (5) by reduction with (+)-.beta.-chlorodiisopinocampheylborane followed by treatment with aqueous base. Alkylation at N(2) provides the (S)-3,4-dihydro-6-chloro-4-hydroxy-2-substituted-2H-thieno[3,2-e]-1,2-thiazine-1,1-dioxide of structure (6). Formation of the C(6) anion is accomplished by halogen-metal exchange, and the anion is reacted with sulfur dioxide to form a lithium sulfinate, which upon reaction with hydroxylamine-O-sulfonic acid provides the (S)-3,4-dihydro-4-hydroxy-2-substituted-2H-thieno[3,2-e] -1,2-thiazine-6-sulfonamide-1,1-dioxide of structure (7). Protection of the C(6)-sulfonamide functionality, followed by activation of the C(4)-hydroxyl and displacement with an appropriate amine provides the (R)-3,4-dihydro-4-alkylamino-2-substituted-2H-thieno[3,2-e]-1,2-thiazine-6-sulfonamide-1,1-dioxide of structure I.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The present invention eliminates some of the problems inherent in the prior art when it is desirable to produce the carbonic anhydrase inhibitors of structure I in commercial quantities. Specifially, this improvement eliminates the need for chromatographic purification of intermediates and provides the (R)-3,4-dihydro-4-alkylamino-2-substituted-2H-thieno[3,2-e]-1,2-thiazine-6-sulfonamide-1,1-dioxides in higher overall yield.
In words relative to the above schematic representations, the synthesis of (R)-3,4-dihydro-4-alkylamino-2-substituted-2H-thieno[3,2-e]-1,2-thiazine-6-sulfonamide-1,1-dioxides is described in greater detail below.
In the initial step of the process, commercially available 3-acetyl-2,5-dichlorothiophene (1) is converted to a thioether, such as 3-acetyl-5-chloro-2-(benzylthio)thiophene (2), by reaction with a mercaptide in a two solvent system consisting of water and tetrahydrofuran or a lower alkyl alcohol. In principle, any lower alkyl mercaptide would suffice; however, benzyl mercaptide is preferred. The reagent is generated in situ either by treatment of benzyl mercaptan with aqueous sodium hydroxide or by treatment of the pseudourea obtained by reaction of thiourea with a benzyl halide, such as benzyl chloride, with aqueous sodium hydroxide. Use of the latter method in ethanol, at a temperature of 45.degree. to 85.degree. C., for a period of 2 to 6 hours is preferred. The product is precipitated by dilution with water and cooling to room temperature. After residual mercaptan is destroyed by exposure to sodium hypochlorite, the material is conveniently collected by filtration.
The second step of the process comprises the conversion of 3-acetyl-5-chloro-2-(benzylthio)thiophene (2) to 3-acetyl-5-chloro-2-thiophenesulfonamide (3). This can be accomplished by oxidative chlorination using chlorine in dilute aqueous acetic or hydrochloric acid followed by treatment with ammonium hydroxide or, preferrably, by a 3-stage process that proceeds via the intermediate sulfenyl chloride and sulfenamide. The first stage of the preferred process consists of conversion of 2 to the intermediate 3-acetyl-5-chloro-2-thiophenesulfenyl chloride by treatment with sulfuryl chloride or, preferrably, chlorine in a solvent such as carbon tetrachloride, ethyl acetate, or toluene at a temperature of -10.degree. to 15.degree. C. for 30 minutes to an hour. While the sulfenyl chloride can be isolated in high yield by solvent removal when the reaction is performed in carbon tetrachloride, it is preferrable to perform the reaction in ethyl acetate and to use the suspension directly in the second stage. The second stage consists of conversion of the intermediate sulfenyl chloride to the intermediate 2-thiophenesulfenamide by reaction with ammonia. The suspension of the sulfenyl chloride is first purged with air or nitrogen to remove excess chlorine and then ammonium hydroxide or, preferrably, anhydrous ammonia is added at a temperature of 0.degree. to 15.degree. C. The reaction is usually complete in 30 minutes to 1 hour. The third stage consists of oxidation of the intermediate 2-thiophenesulfenamide to the 2-thiophenesulfonamide (3). This can be accomplished using either m-chloroperbenzoic acid in a two-phase system consisting of toluene and aqueous sodium bicarbonate or, preferrably, 0.1 to 0.5 equivalents of sodium tungstate dihydrate in a two-phase system consisting of aqueous hydrogen peroxide and ethyl acetate at a temperature of 0.degree. to 45.degree. C. for a period of 2 to 24 hours. The sulfonamide is isolated by phase separation, a wash with bisulfite solution to destroy excess peroxide, and solvent removal.
The third step of the process is bromination of 3-acetyl-5-chloro-2-thiophenesulfonamide (3) to provide 3-bromoacetyl-5-chloro-2-thiophenesulfonamide (4). This can be accomplished using pyridinium bromide perbromide and an acid catalyst such as hydrogen chloride, hydrogen bromide, or sulfuric acid in tetrahydrofuran, ethyl acetate, or a lower alkyl alcohol. Alternatively, this can be accomplished using bromine and sulfuric acid in methanol at a temperature of 0.degree. to 20.degree. C. over a period of 1 to 6 hours. When the brominating agent is pyridinium bromide perbromide, the preferred method utilizes sulfuric acid and ethyl acetate. After the bromination is complete, the ethyl acetate solution is washed with water to neutrality and the product is isolated by solvent removal and trituration. The material obtained, typically contaminated with less than 10% of the dibromoketone, is acceptable for use in step 4.
In the fourth step of the process, 3-bromoacetyl-5-chloro-2-thiophenesulfonamide (4) is reduced with an appropriate reagent to provide initially an (S)-bromohydrin, which upon subsequent treatment with aqueous sodium hydroxide cyclizes to (S)-3,4-dihydro-6-chloro-4-hydroxy-2H-thieno[3,2-e]-1,2-thiazine-1,1-dioxide (5). The preferred reducing agent is (+)-.beta.-chlorodiisopinocampheylborane, which is well known to provide bromohydrins in high enantiomeric excess from prochiral .alpha.-bromo ketones [H. C. Brown, W. S. Park, B. T. Cho, and P. V. Ramachandran J. Org. Chem. 52, 5406 (1987) and H. C. Brown U.S. Pat. No. 4,918,246 (1990)]. Several different reaction solvents can be used for the reduction of (4), including diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, and t-butyl methyl ether. The reduction is typically carried out using 1.2 to 2.2 equivalents of (+)-.beta.-chlorodiisopinocampheylborane at a temperature of -40.degree. to 0.degree. C. for 6 to 24 hours. A higher enantiomeric excess is obtained at the lower temperature; however, the reaction rate is slower. The preferred conditions utilize t-butyl methyl ether at a temperature of -25.degree. to -15.degree. C. After the reduction is complete, aqueous potassium or sodium hydroxide is added and the mixture is stirred at ambient temperature for a period of 1 to 5 hours to accomplish cyclization. The product is isolated by phase separation, acidification of the aqueous phase, extraction, solvent removal, and trituration. The enantiomeric excess of the (5) produced is typically greater than 96%.
The fifth step of the process is alkylation of (5) at N(2) with the appropriate alkylating agent to produce the (S)-3,4-dihydro-6-chloro-4-hydroxy-2-substituted-2H-thieno[3,2-e]-1,2-thiazine-1,1-dioxide of structure (6). This can be accomplished using an alkyl halide (eg. chloride, bromide, or iodide), tosylate, or mesylate and a base/solvent combination such as sodium hydride in dimethylformamide, potassium carbonate in acetonitrile or dimethylsulfoxide, or in a two phase system using a phase transfer catalyst. The most convenient and preferred method utilizes the alkyl halide and potassium carbonate in dimethylsulfoxide at 25.degree. to 40.degree. C. for a period of 18 to 24 hours. Upon completion, the reaction is diluted with saturated aqueous sodium chloride and the product is isolated by extraction using diethyl ether or, preferrably, t-butyl methyl ether and solvent evaporation. The material obtained is of sufficient quality that it can be used in the next step without further purification.
The sixth step of the process comprises the conversion of the C(6)-chloro atom of an (S)-3,4-dihydro-6-chloro-4-hydroxy-2-substituted-2H-thieno[3,2-e]-1,2-thiazine-1,1-dioxide of structure (6) to a sulfonamide functionality, providing an (S)-3,4-dihydro-4-hydroxy-2-substituted-2H-thieno[3,2-e]-1,2-thiazine-6-sulfonamide-1,1-dioxide of structure (7). One way of accomplishing this is to treat 6 with an alkyllithium to form a C(6) anion which, by reaction with sulfur dioxide, followed by treatment with chlorine, N-chlorosuccinimide, or a similar source of positive halogen, followed by treatment with ammonia, provides 7. In the preferred method, the C(6) anion is formed by halogen-metal exchange using 2 to 2.5 equivalents of an alkyllithium such as n-, s-, or t-butyllithium in a solvent such as dimethoxyethane or tetrahydrofuran at a temperature of -78.degree. to -20.degree. C. The use of n-butyllithium as a hexane solution and tetrahydrofuran as the reaction solvent is most convenient. In the second stage, the C(6) anion is reacted with sulfur dioxide to form an intermediate lithium sulfinate. This is accomplished by simply passing sulfur dioxide into or over the -78.degree. to -20.degree. C. solution of the anion until the pH of the mixture is about 4. In the third stage, the solvent is removed, and the solid lithium sulfinate is converted to the sulfonamide using the method of S. L. Graham and T. H. Scholtz Synthesis, 1031 (1986). This is accomplished by adding an aqueous solution of the lithium sulfinate to a 0.degree. to 25.degree. C. solution of 5 to 10 equivalents of sodium acetate and 3 to 6 equivalents of hydroxylamine-O-sulfonic acid in water. After a reaction time of 6 to 18 hours, the product is isolated by extraction into ethyl acetate, solvent removal, and trituration.
The seventh step of the process is conversion of the (S)-3,4-dihydro-4-hydroxy-2-substituted-2H-thieno[3,2-e]-1,2-thiazine-6-sulfonamide-1,1-dioxide of structure (7) to a (R)-3,4-dihydro-4-alkylamino-2-substituted-2H-thieno[3,2-e]-1,2-thiazine-6-sulfonamide-1,1-dioxide of structure I. This is accomplished in three stages consisting of a) protection of the C(6)-sulfonamide functionality as a lower alkoxyimidate, b) activation of the C(4)-hydroxyl group, and c) displacement of the activated C(4)-hydroxyl group with the appropriate amine with inversion of the stereochemistry at C(4) and removal of the protecting group from the C(6)-sulfonamide functionality. Protection of the C(6)-sulfonamide functionality minimizes subsequent sulfonimide formation during activation of the C(4)-hydroxyl group. Protection is accomplished by refluxing a solution of (7) and an excess of a lower alkyl orthoacetate, such as trimethyl orthoacetate, in acetonitrile for a period of 12 to 48 hours. After solvent removal, stage two is carried out by replacing the solvent with tetrahydrofuran and reacting the C(4)-hydroxyl group with methanesulfonic anhydride or a sulfonyl chloride such as p-toluenesulfonyl chloride, p-bromotoluenesulfonyl chloride, or p-nitrotoluenesulfonyl chloride in the presence of a base such as pyridine, triethylamine, or dimethylaminopyridine. Two to 2.5 equivalents of p-toluenesulfonyl chloride and triethylamine at a temperature of -10.degree. to 15.degree. C. for a period of 1 to 4 hours are preferred. When tosylation is complete, stage three is accomplished by adding 10 to 40 equivalents of the appropriate amine to the cold solution. After a period of 8 to 60 hours, the product is isolated by an acid-base workup.
The synthesis of the present invention is further illustrated by the following examples, wherein specific embodiments of the invention are described in detail. However, it should be understood that the invention is not limited to the specific details of these examples.

A mixture of (S)-3,4-dihydro-6-chloro-4-hydroxy-4H-thieno[3,2-e]-1,2-thiazine-1,1-dioxide (5, 1.2 g) and potassium carbonate (2.1 g) in dimethylsulfoxide (7 mL) was treated with 1-bromo-2-methoxyethane (0.5 eq, 0.25 mL) and the mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 3 hours. Another 0.25 mL of 1-bromo-2-methoxyethane was then added and the mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 18 hours.

Working under nitrogen, n-butyllithium (3.0 L of a 2.5M hexane solution) was added dropwise to a stirred, -70.degree. to -60.degree.

The solution was added in one portion to a solution of sodium acetate trihydrate (2.714 kg) and hydroxylamine-O-sulfonic acid (1.515 kg) in water (15 L) and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 15 h. The pH was adjusted to 8-9 using 50% aqueous sodium hydroxide (1 L) and solid sodium bicarbonate (ca. 500 g) and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (1.times.8 L plus 2.times.4 L).

TLC analysis indicated incomplete reaction, so another 2 equivalents of trimethyl orthoacetate were added and reflux continued for 18 hours. Again, TLC analysis indicated incomplete reaction, so another 1 equivalent of trimethyl orthoacetate was added and reflux continued for 5 hours. As the reaction was judged to be complete at this point, the volatiles were removed by rotary evaporation. The residual oil was dissolved in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (150 mL) and the solution was cooled to -5.degree. C. under nitrogen. Triethylamine (25 mL) and p-toluenesulfonyl chloride (30.8 g) were added sequentially causing the temperature to rise to 5.degree. C. over 10 minutes. The reaction mixture was stirred at 0.degree. C. for 1 hour before a mixture of n-propylamine (200 mL) and water (85 mL) was added. The addition caused the temperature to rise to 15.degree. C. and required 1.5 hours. The resulting solution was stirred at ambient temperature for 18 hours before it was cooled to 5.degree. C. and acidified to pH 0-1 by the slow addition of concentrated hydrochloric acid (250 mL). The solution was extracted with diethyl ether (2.times.300 mL) and the combined extracts were back-extracted with 1M aqueous hydrochloric acid (150 mL). The combined aqueous phases were neutralized to pH 8 using solid sodium bicarbonate resulting in a white precipitate. After 1 hour, the solid was collected by filtration, washed with water, and dried in air to a constant weight of 19.7 grams (59%) of crude (R)-3,4-dihydro-2-(4-methoxybutyl)-4-propylamino-4H-thieno[3,2-e]-1,2-thiazine-6-sulfonamide-1,1-dioxide.
