Several processes have been reported for producing N2-[1(S)-ethoxycarbonyl-3-phenylpropyl]-N6-trifluoroacetyl-L-lysine and lisinopril thereof.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,227,497 describes how the intermediate can be obtained starting from 3-phenylpropionaldehyde and a protected L-lysine derivative in the presence of a cynating agent. But an acidic work-up is necessary at the end of the reaction which can easily produce hydrogen cyanide. Therefore this reaction is not suitable for an industrial scale.
According to U.S. Pat. No. 5,387,696 dipeptide containing lysyl-proline is coupled with 2-oxo-4-phenylbutanoic acid ethyl ester by using raney nickel as a catalyst and the reaction must be carried out in the presence of molecular sieve. Although this process shows good diastereoselectivity, a special hydrogenation facility is needed to use raney nickel as a catalyst.
In U.S. Pat. No. 4,808,741 side chain protected lysine reacted with ethyl 2-halo-4-phenyl butanoate to give corresponding alkyl amino acid derivative as a racemic mixture. In addition to that, the reaction needs a couple days for completion. The longer reaction time and low diasteromeric ratio makes this process economically unfeasible.
Another process (U.S. Pat. No. 4,925,969) starts from benzene and maleic anhydride to yield trans-β-benzoylacrylic acid. But during the esterification of carboxyl group in alcohol in the presence of an acid, besides the desired compound a side product is formed up to a ratio of 2:1.
EP 0215 335 A discloses a method of preparing alkyl-L-alanyl-L-proline derivatives by using phosgene to form N-[1(S)-ethoxycarbonyl-3-phenylpropyl]-L-alanine N-carboxy anhydride and reacting this intermediate with proline in aqueous media in the presence of a base gives crude enalapril. Following this process desired SSS isomer can be obtained selectively. The same approach is used in the coupling reaction between ε-trifluorolysine and proline to yield dipeptide (J Org. Chem. 53, 836, (1988). In U.S. Pat. No. 5,359,086, carbonyldiimidazole is employed instead of phosgene for the preparation of N-[1(S)-ethoxycarbonyl-3-phenylpropyl]-L-alaine N-carboxy anhydride and reacted with trimethylsilyl ester of proline.
These studies show that there is still a need for the preparation of lisinopril, which produces safely the tittle compound in an economic way and gives the title compound in optically pure form.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a novel process for the preparation of N2(1(RS)-ethoxycarbonyl-3-oxo-3-phenylpropyl]-N6-trifluoroacetyl-L-lysine benzyl ester (IV)
by reacting ethyl α-chloro-γ-oxo-γ-phenylbutyrate with ε-trifluoroacetyl-L-lysine benzyl ester hydrochloride. The coupling reaction can be carried out in dioxane in the presence of sodium iodide and a mixture of base pair, preferably triethylamine/lithium hydroxide at room temperature for 24 hours. The following catalytic hydrogenation gives diastreomerically pure N2(1(S)-ethoxycarbonyl-3-phenylpropyl]-N6-trifeuoroacetyl-L-lysine having the formula (V).
It is another object of the invention to provide a process for the preparation of N2-[1(S)-ethoxycarbonyl-3-phenylpropyl]-N6-trifluoroacetyl-L-lysine N-carboxy anhydride (VI) in situ by using carbonyldiimidazole instead of toxic phosgene and diphosgene.
According to present invention, there is provided a new process for the preparation of alkyl-L-lysyl-L-proline derivatives which comprises reacting an L-proline derivative, preferably L-proline methy ester hydrochloride with of N2-[1(S)-ethoxycarbonyl-3-phenylpropyl]-N6-trifluoroacetyl-L-lysine N-carboxy anhydride to give after hydrolysis lisinopril (IX).
Trans-β-benzoylacrylic acid can be prepared via Friedel-Crafts acylation of benzene with maleic anhydride. But esterification of the trans-β-benzoylacrylic acid in alcohols such as ethanol by using acids, such as aqueous mineral acids like hydrochloric acid, sulfric acid, phosphoric acid; or sulfonic acids, such as p-toluenesulfonic acid, methanesulfonic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, Dowex cation exchange resin is problematic. A side product arises during the reaction up to a ratio of 2:1. Further, under these conditions esterification reaction never goes to completion. The side product was isolated by using flash chromatography and identified by NMR. It is ethyl α-ethoxy-γ-oxo-γ-phenylbutyrate, which is formed through Michael addition of ethanol to α,β unsaturated system. To eliminate formation of the side product, gaseous HCl is used as an acid in the esterification reaction and a single product is obtained in high yield. Identification of the product showed that it is ethyl α-chloro-γ-oxo-γ-phenylbutyrate. The esterification reaction can be done in an alcohol such as methanol, ethanol, propanol, preferably ethanol and between a temperature of −25 to 80° C. Since α-halo compound can be used in the coupling reaction and β-chloro-γ-oxo-γ-phenylbutyrate can be obtained in high yield following a simple synthetic route, we decided to use this compound as a substrate in the coupling reaction to get protected N2(1-(RS)-ethoxycarbonyl-3-oxo-3-phenylpropyl]-N6-trifluoroacetyl-L-lysine benzyl ester.
Lysine used in substitution reaction in the present invention contains two amino groups, at α and ε-positions and one carboxyl group. Lysine must be attached selectively to phenyl butyrate derivative from α-amino group, so amino group at side chain of the lysine needs to be protected. The protecting group of amine functionality has to be stable under catalytic hydrogenation and can be removable at the end of the synthesis in the presence of an amide and a secondary amine. Examples of such protecting groups are, urethane type protecting groups such as tertiary butyloxycarbonyl (Boc), an acyl type protecting groups such as trifluoroacetyl, formyl or phtaloyl and the like. The carboxyl group of lysine derivative has to be protected to increase solubility of lysine, further the protection reduces self-aggregation and simplifies the work up of the coupling product. To avoid an additional step in the new route, the carboxyl moiety of lysine must be protected with a protecting group, which is removable under catalytic hydrogenation conditions. Examples for such protecting groups are, benzyl and benzyl derivatives such as methoxybenzyl, nitrobenzyl, trimethylbenzyl and the like.
The amino group of the lysine at the side chain is protected as trifluoroacetyl following known procedures of Shallanberg et al, J. Amer. Chem. Soc. 77, 2779, (1955); and Weygand et al, Chem Ber. 89, 647, (1956). The carboxyl group is protected by the treatment of ε-trifluorolysine with thionylchloride in benzyl alcohol at elevated temperature. The formed benzyl ester of lysine precipitated by simply adding ethyl acetate/hexane into reaction mixture.
The solvents employed in the coupling reaction are, for example, alcohols such as
ethanol, methanol, isopropanol, butanol and dioxane, acetonitrile, toluene, tetrahydrofuran, dichloromethane, chloroform or a mixture thereof.
The bases employed in coupling reaction are, alkali metal hydroxides, alkaline earth metal hydroxides or metal carbonates such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, lithium hydroxide, barium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, calcium carbonate and amines such as triethyl, disopropylethyl, diisopropylamine or a mixture thereof.
To accelerate coupling reaction alkali metal salt of iodine such as sodium iodide, potassium iodide and the like can be used from catalytic to molar equivalents.
The coupling reaction can be carried out from 0 to 80° C., especially from 20 to 30° C. The reaction time can be several hours or days, especially 24 hours.
Different reaction parameters (e.g. solvent, base, temperature, reaction time) have enormous effect on the selectivity and yield. When an alcohol is used as a solvent in the coupling reaction, diastereoselectivity decreases. The best selectivity can be achieved when dioxane is used as a solvent. Moreover, selectivity also decreases with longer reaction time. Use of sodium iodide and a mixture of base pair, for instance, triethylamine/lithium hydroxide produces high reaction rate and good selectivity.
The optimum reaction conditions can be defined; when α-chloro-γ-oxo-γ-phenylbutyrate reacts with ε-trifluoroacetyl-L-lysine benzyl ester hydrochloride in dioxane in the presence of sodium iodide and a mixture of base pair, preferably triethylamine/lithium hydroxide at room temperature for 24 hours. Under the conditions mentioned above N2(1(RS)-ethoxycarbonyl-3-oxo-3-phenylpropyl]-N6-tritluoroacetyl-L-lysine benzyl ester can be obtained in a diasteremeric ratio of 80:20 SS/RS respectively and in a yield of 50-60%. Diastereomeric ratio is determined comparing the integral ratio of α-proton signal of lysine by using 1H-NMR.
After completion of coupling reaction, the mixture is concentrated under reduced pressure and isolated. The mixture is subjected to catalytic reduction following conventional methods. The catalytic reduction reaction can be carried out in a polar solvent, for example in alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, propanol and in water and organic acid, such as acetic acid, or mixture thereof. Catalysts used in reduction reaction under a hydrogen atmosphere are, for instance, palladium, platinium, raney nickel and the like. In a typical procedure, palladium can be used as a catalyst and ethanol as a solvent, to this system, N2(1(RS)-ethoxycarbonyl-3-oxo-3-phenylpropyl]-N6-trifluoroacetyl-L-lysine benzyl ester is added. The reaction can be carried out in a temperature range from −10 to 80° C., preferably from 20 to 30° C. for several hours to days under a hydrogen atmosphere. After completion of the reaction, the catalyst is removed by filtration and the residue is concentrated. The desired isomer N2(1(S)-ethoxycarbonyl-3-phenylpropyl]-N6-tfriluoroacetyl-L-lysine is precipitated from ethanol/water as white solid.
In the next step of the invention, N2(1(S)-ethoxycarbonyl-3-phenylpropyl]-N6-trifluoroacetyl-L-lysine must be converted to protected lisinopril by the coupling with L-proline.
To increase yield and eliminate the side product, the carboxyl group of the proline had to be protected. The best of choose was the protection of the carboxyl group as an ester to avoid an additional deprotection step at the end of the reaction. These esters are methyl, ethyl, propyl, benzyl and the like. Considering the fact mentioned above, carboxyl group of proline is protected first converting to acyl chloride by using thionyl chloride and then treating with methanol to give proline methyl ester hydrochloride.
Different procedures are reported for the condensation of the amino acids. The peptide bond formation can be carried out in a non-aqueous media such as dichloromethane, chloroform, acetone, acetonitrile, tetrahydrofuran and in a temperature range from −20 to 100° C. preferably at 20 to 40° C. To conduct coupling reaction, carboxyl group of the lysine derivative has to be activated. The best of choose for the activation is N-carboxy anhydride formation. N-carboxy anhydride can be prepared by treatment of α-amino acid derivative with phosgene, diphosgene or preferably less toxic N,N-carbonyldiimidazole in organic solvents such as dichloromethane, chloroform, aceton, acetonitrile, tetrahydrofuran and in a temperature range from −20 to 80° C., preferably 20 to 50° C. N-carboxy anhydride prepared in situ as described above is reacted with proline methyl ester hydrochloride to give fully protected lisinopril in high yield. The last step of lisinopril synthesis is the deprotection of the protecting groups via hydrolysis. The bases employed in the hydrolysis step are, aqueous solution of alkali metal hydroxide, alkaline earth metal hydroxides or metal carbonates such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, lithium hydroxide, barium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, calcium carbonate. The reaction can be carried out in alcohols, such as methanol, ethanol, propanol or tetrahydrofuran, dioxane and the like. The temperature of the hydrolysis reaction can be in a range from 0 to 80° C. Fully protected alkyl-L-lysyl-Lproline derivative is deprotected under the condition described above and title compound lisinopril is obtained as a white powder.
