  • Patent number: 11661406
    Abstract: A method of preparing an intermediate useful for the synthesis of a diphenylmethane derivative that can be used as an SGLT inhibitor is described. A method of synthesizing a compound of Formula 7 can address problems of existing synthesis processes requiring the synthesis of the Grignard reagent and management of related substances. In addition, the method can minimize the generation of related substances, and thus does not require reprocessing of reaction products, thereby simplifying the process. Accordingly, the production yield of a diphenylmethane derivative can be maximized.

  • Publication number: 20230096670
    Abstract: An intermediate useful for the synthesis of an SGLT inhibitor and a method for preparing an SGLT inhibitor are provided. By employing an intermediate having Chemical Formula 5, the difficulty of purification with existing processes can be solved, the quality requirements for related substances can be achieved with only one purification step, and the quality control problem in each step can be solved by performing several steps in situ. A method for synthesizing a compound of Chemical Formula 1 by using a compound of Chemical Formula 5 enables purification in an earlier step, thereby solving the problems of existing synthesis processes, in which the quality requirements for related substances were difficult to control step-by-step due to a continuous process, thereby minimizing the amount of related substances in the final product. In addition, the yield of a diphenylmethane derivative according to Chemical Formula 1 is increased.

  • Patent number: 10889574
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved method for producing a diphenylmethane derivative which is effective as a sodium-dependent glucose cotransporter (SGLT) inhibitor, the method being carried out by means of a convergent synthesis method in which each major group is separately synthesized and then coupled. As such, in comparison to a linear synthesis method disclosed in existing documents, the synthesis pathway is compact and yield can be increased, and risk factors inherent in the linear synthesis pathway can be reduced. Furthermore, the crystal form of the compound produced according to the method has superb physicochemical characteristics, and thus can be effectively utilized in fields such as pharmaceutical manufacturing.
