Abstract: A process for the industrial production of 2-amino-2-[2-[4-(3-benzyloxyphenylthio)-2-chlorophenyl]ethyl]-1,3-propanediol hydrochloride (Compound I), an effective immunosuppressant. The process for producing 2-amino-2-[2-[4-(3-benzyloxyphenylthio)-2-chlorophenyl]ethyl]-1,3-propanediol hydrochloride or a hydrate thereof includes the steps of reacting 4-(3-benzyloxyphenylthio)-2-chlorobenzaldehyde with ethyl diethylphosphonoacetate in a solvent in the presence of a base to form ethyl 3-[4-(3-benzyloxyphenylthio)-2-chlorophenyl]acrylate; reducing the resulting ethyl 3-[4-(3-benzyloxyphenylthio)-2-chlorophenyl]acrylate, followed by mesylation, iodination and nitration, to form 1-benzyloxy-3-[3-chloro-4-(3-nitropropyl)phenylthio]benzene; forming 2-[2-[4-(3-benzyloxyphenylthio)-2-chlorophenyl]ethyl]-2-nitro-1,3-propanediol using a formaldehyde solution; and reducing the resulting 2-[2-[4-(3-benzyloxyphenylthio)-2-chlorophenyl]ethyl]-2-nitro-1,3-propanediol to form the desired product.

Abstract: Novel bicycloester derivatives and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof have high DPP-IV inhibitory activity. The novel bicycloester derivatives are represented by the general formula (1): Pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof are also included (Example: (2S,4S)-1-[[N-(4-ethoxycarbonylbicyclo[2.2.2]oct-1-yl)amino]acetyl]-4-fluoropyrrolidine-2-carbonitrile)).
Abstract: Herein provided is a method for easily preparing a sustained release tablet which contains an orally administrable medicinal component, while maintaining the uniformity of the content of the medicinal component. The method comprises mixing (1) a granulated product A obtained by granulating an excipient and an enteric coating agent while spraying thereon with a solution or a suspension containing an orally administrable medicinal component, with (2) a composition B containing a hydrogel-forming substance; and then compressing the resulting mixture into a tablet.
Abstract: An industrially advantageous process for the production of (3R,4S)-3-cyclopropylaminomethyl-4-fluoropyrrolidine or an enantiomer thereof that is useful as an intermediate for the production of novel antimicrobial agents 10-(3-cyclopropylaminomethyl-4-fluoropyrrolidinyl)pyridobenzoxazine carboxylic acid derivatives. Highly stereoselective asymmetric hydrogenation of 1-protected-4-alkoxycarbonyl-3-oxopyrrolidine, followed by ester hydrolysis, followed by amidation with cyclopropylamine gives crude crystals. The crude crystals are purified by recrystallization to give a novel compound (3R,4S)-1-protected-3-cyclopropylcarbamoyl-4-hydroxypyrrolidine or an enantiomer thereof at high optical purity. The use of these intermediates enables industrial production of high-quality products of (3R,4S)-3-cyclopropylaminomethyl-4-fluoropyrrolidine or an enantiomer thereof. The process is highly simple and can produce the desired products at high purity and stable yields.
Abstract: The industrial production of 4-(2-methyl-1-imidazolyl)-2,2-diphenylbutanamide, a urinary incontinence remedy, necessitates elimination of problems concerning the use of a synthetic adsorbent, e.g., HP-20, the efficiency of operation with the same, purification efficiency, etc. An acid salt, e.g., hydrochloride or phosphate, of 4-(2-methyl-1-imidazolyl)-2,2-diphenylbutanamide or a hydrate of any of these salts is used as an intermediate. This intermediate is neutralized and then purified. Thus, high-purity 4-(2-methyl-1-imidazolyl)-2,2-diphenylbutanamide is easily obtained in satisfactory yield. The industrial-scale production process has been thus established.
Abstract: There are provided compounds represented by the following general formula (I): [where R1 is 5-methylpyridin-2-yl, p-tolyl or mesityl, R2 is one of the following general formulas (II)-(IX): (where R3 is C1-C4 alkyl, R4 is H or C1-C4 alkyl, R5 is H, 3-pyridylmethyl or 4-pyridylmethyl, and R6 is 2,4-dihydroxybenzyl, 3-pyridylmethyl or 4-pyridylmethyl), or when R1 is mesityl, R2 is the following formula (X)], and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. The compounds exhibit pruritus-inhibiting action, and are useful for prevention or of itching and pruritus caused by reaction against insect-inflicted wounds, reaction against environmental allergens, skin infections or external parasite infections, or caused to renal dialysis patient.
