With the rapid development and complex challenges of chemical substances, new drug synthesis pathways are usually the most effective.875444-08-9,(4S,5R)-5-(3,5-Bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-4-methyloxazolidin-2-one,as a common compound, the synthetic route is as follows.
875444-08-9, The chiral intermediate (4S,5R)-5-(3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-4-methyloxazolidin-2-one (compound of formula XV; cf. also compound 11 in Scheme 3) (28.0 g) prepared by the procedure of WO 2007/005572 is dissolved in DMF (300 mL) and cooled to -15C. 2 M NaHMDS (39.2 mL, 1.05 eq) was then added over 1 h, followed by addition of the blaryl chloride 7 (Scheme 3) (28.0 g) in DMF (50 mL), maintaining the internal temperature below-10 C. The mixture was warmed to + 12 C and was aged until complete conversion took place. Then 5M HCl (35 mL) was added, followed by 160 mL of 10% IPAC/Heptanes and 340 mL of water, keeping the temperature between 10C and 20C throughout. The layers were cut and the organic layer was washed twice with 150 mL of 1/1 DMF/water followed by two 140 mL water washes. The organic layer was then removed under reduced pressure and the resulting residue was purified by flash chromatography (EtOAclhexanes) to remove the excess oxazolidinone 11 (Scheme 3). The obtained colorless oil was then dissolved in refluxing heptanes (200 mL) and the solution was slowly cooled to -20 C. The resulting slurry was then stirred at -20 C for 2 hours and filtered. The filter cake was washed with cold heptanes and was then dried, yielding 44.0 g (88%) of the desired product of compound of formula XV” (anacetrapib) as an amorphous material. An impurity of compound of formula XVII” (4S,5R)-5-(3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-3-((5′-ethyl-4′-fluoro-2′-methoxy-4-(triftuoromethyl) biphenyl-2-yl)methyl-4-methyloxazolidin-2-one (DMAP) is present in the thus obtained anacetrapib in an amount of about 3 % by weight relative to the total amount of anacetrapib product. DMAP originates from 2′-(chloromethyl)-5-ethyl-4-fluoro-2-mothoxy-4′-trifluoromethyl)biphenyl (EBFCI) representing an impurity which forms in the preparation path of 2′-(chloromethyl)-4-fluoro-5-isopropyl-2-methoxy-4′-(trifluoromethyl)biphenyl under the above described conditions.
The synthetic route of 875444-08-9 has been constantly updated, and we look forward to future research findings.
