U.S. Pat. Nos. 7,232,818, 8,207,297, 8,367,617, 7,417,042 & US publication 20050256324 reported various processes for the syntheses of Carfilzomib, the contents of which are hereby incorporated as reference in their entirety. The general route of synthesis reported in these patents essentially involves the use of a chiral epoxide III. This epoxide is coupled with tripeptide II to obtain Carfilzomib.
The yield and purity of Carfilzomib synthesized largely depends on the isomeric purity of the epoxide (III).
Therefore the synthesis of a chiral pure epoxide poses a challenge to obtain a substantially pure Carfilzomib.
US 20050256324 application explains two different routes of synthesis for the chiral epoxide.
In the first process, a keto alkene was converted into an alcohol derivative, which was subsequently epoxidized to obtain a mixture of diastereomers, from which the desired isomer of epoxide (III)(S)-2-amino-4-methyl-1-((R)-2-methyloxiran-2-yl)pentan-1-one, was isolated by column chromatography.
In the second process, the keto alkene was directly subjected to epoxidation using calcium hypochlorite or m-CPBA. The selectivity obtained was in the ratio of 60:40 and the required isomer was once again isolated by column chromatography.
However in either of these cases, the yield of the epoxide III was less, owing to low stereo selection in the reaction (60:40), thereby reducing the final yield of Carfilzomib.
Likewise WO2015032622 A1 involves a Mannich Reaction to prepare Carfilzomib whereas WO2015032621 A1 provides process for preparing epoxy ketones and describes synthesis of Carfilzomib as a 5/1-diastereomeric mixture.
Accordingly it is an object of the present invention to provide a novel process with high stereo selection for the preparation of substantially pure Carfilzomib.
In one aspect of the invention a method of preparing a substantially pure Carfilzomib, whose isomeric purity is greater than or equal to 99.5% is reported.
It is also an object of the present invention to reduce tedious workups and to prepare Carfilzomib with a high stereo selection.
The first stage of the synthesis involves dihydroxylation of a keto alkene, (S)-tert-butyl (2,6-dimethyl-3-oxo-hept-1-en-4-yl)carbamate (IV) to form a diol, tert-butyl ((2R,4S)-1,2-dihydroxy-2,6-dimethyl-3-oxoheptan-4-yl) carbamate (V). The diol was then protected with a suitable hydroxyl-protecting agent, for example acetyl, to generate a protected diol, (2R,4S)-4-((tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino)-2,6-dimethyl-3-oxoheptane-1,2-diyl diacetate (VI).
The desired isomer of the diol V can be obtained by chiral dihydroxylation of IV. The hydroxy groups of compound V are protected using hydroxyl-protecting groups to obtain compound VI. When the hydroxyl-protecting group is an acetyl group, compound VI corresponds to (2R,4S)-4-((tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino)-2,6-dimethyl-3-oxoheptane-1,2-diyl diacetate.
The selectivity obtained at this stage is greater than 95% and amounts to yet another aspect of the present invention.
The desired chiral diol isomer VI is then coupled with a tripeptide II in the presence of a coupling agent to generate VII. When the hydroxyl-protecting group is an acetyl group, compound VII corresponds to (4S,7S,10S,13S,15R)-10-benzyl-7,13-diisobutyl-15-methyl-1-morpholino-2,5,8,11,14-pentaoxo-4-phenethyl-3,6,9,12-tetraazahexadecane-15,16-diyl diacetate
The protected diol hydroxyl groups of VII were deprotected to obtain a free diol, (S)—N—((S)-1-(((2R,4S)-1,2-dihydroxy-2,6-dimethyl-3-oxoheptan-4-yl)amino)-1-oxo-3-phenylpropan-2-yl)-4-methyl-2-((S)-2-(2-morpholinoacetamido)-4-phenylbutanamido)pentanamide (VIII).
Alternatively, diol intermediate VIII can also be prepared by the coupling of chiral diol V with tripeptide II.
The primary hydroxyl group of the diol VIII was converted to a leaving group (LG) and the resulting compound IX was then converted to the epoxide by a base mediated cyclization resulting in the formation of substantially pure Carfilzomib (I). When the LG is mesyl, compound IX corresponds to (4S,7S,10S,13S,15R)-10-benzyl-15-hydroxy-7,13-diisobutyl-15-methyl-1-morpholino-2,5,8,11,14-pentaoxo-4-phenethyl-3,6,9,12-tetraazahexadecan-16-yl methanesulfonate (IX).
The process is depicted in Scheme-2
Reaction of II and V Generates VIII:
In yet another aspect of the invention, the inventors have also found an alternate route for the synthesis of substantially pure Carfilzomib (Scheme-3). In this process, the keto alkene IV was first coupled with a tripeptide II in the presence of a coupling agent to generate an intermediate X.
Intermediate X was subjected to dihydroxylation to generate intermediate VIII. The conversion of intermediate VIII to Carfilzomib via the intermediate IX involves the same reaction sequence as in Scheme-2.
Thus the reported two methods make it possible to synthesize Carfilzomib with greater stereo selection and in higher yield.
The two methods for preparing Carfilzomib according to the present invention are characterized by the steps of synthesizing a tetrapeptide intermediate VIII.
Flow Chart Showing Two Methods for Carfilzomib Synthesis
According to the general method of synthesis shown in Scheme-2, the intermediate VIII is prepared from intermediate VII, which in turn is prepared by coupling a chiral diol VI with a tripeptide II. The reaction is performed in an aprotic or a protic solvent or mixtures thereof at temperature ranging from −10 to 30° C., preferably in the presence of a base.
Intermediate VII is deprotected using hydroxyl-deprotecting agents. The reaction is performed in an alcoholic solvent or other protic solvent or mixtures thereof, in the presence of a base, wherein the temperature ranges from −5° C. to 5° C. to generate an intermediate VIII.
Alternatively, compound VIII was prepared by coupling the chiral diol V with tripeptide II in the presence of a suitable coupling agent in a protic or an aprotic solvent or mixtures thereof. Intermediate VIII in subsequent reaction stages is converted to Carfilzomib.
According to the general method depicted in Scheme-3, the intermediate VIII is prepared starting from the ketoalkene IV and involves the following stages:
i) the Ketoalkene IV was boc-deprotected and in-situ coupled with tripeptide II, wherein the reaction is performed in an aprotic solvent or a mixture of aprotic solvents and in the presence of a base and a coupling agent to generate an intermediary compound X.
ii) Compound X is subjected to Cisdihydroxylation using suitable dihydroxylating agents to yield VIII, wherein the solvents employed are protic, aprotic or mixtures thereof.
Compound VIII prepared by any of the above described processes is sufficiently pure to be employed for the next reaction stage. Therefore purification of compound VIII is optional and can be carried out by employing protic solvents like alcohols, aprotic solvents like haloalkane or mixtures thereof, wherein methanol and dichloromethane being the most suitable. Purification of compound VIII can be carried out by treatment with a protic or an aprotic solvent wherein the treatment involves washing with suitable solvent or recrystallizing from suitable solvents wherein the most preferred solvents are methanol, dichloromethane or mixtures thereof.
The required stereo selection in the first method (Scheme-2) is acquired in the early stages when the ketoalkene IV is dihydroxylated to V using chiral dihydroxylating agent such as AD-mix, chiral transition metal complexes, Oxone, KMnO4, OsO4 or the like. The reaction is performed in a protic solvent.
In the second method, the required stereo selection is attained when intermediate X is cis dihydroxylated to VIII using AD-mix, chiral transition metal complexes, Oxone, KMnO4, OsO4 or the like, wherein the most preferred agent being AD-mix.
The primary hydroxyl moiety of VIII is then converted into a leaving group, wherein the reaction is performed at a temperature ranging from −30° C. to 60° C., preferably −5° C.-10° C. to generate IX.
Compound IX under suitable reaction conditions undergoes a nucleophilic substitution reaction in the presence of a base to generate the required epoxide Carfilzomib (I). The reaction is performed in an aprotic solvent, protic solvent or mixtures thereof.
These processes generate substantially pure Carfilzomib with a high stereo selection, which is greater than or equal to 99.5% thus providing the required compound in a very high purity.
