Abstract: The present invention relates to enantiomerically enriched aminodiphosphine ligands where the chirality is located in the phosphorus atom and their preparation process, to catalysts containing them and their preparation process, as well as their use in asymmetric synthesis.

Abstract: A process for the preparation of an 11-(4-substituted-1-piperazinyl)dibenzo[b,f][1,4]thiazepine derivative, of general Formula (I), where A is hydrogen or a —(CH2)2—OH group or a —(CH2)2-0-(CH2)2—OH group, or of a salt thereof, comprises a step in which 10H-dibenzo[b,f][1,4]thiazepin-11-one is reacted with a piperazine derivative in the presence of a titanium alkoxide of general formula Ti(OR)4, where R is a straight or branched alkyl group, having from one to eight carbon atoms to obtain said Formula I derivative or a salt thereof. Where A is —CH2)2-0-(CH2)2—OH, then the piperazine derivative is 1-(2-(2-hydroxyethoxy)ethyl)piperazine and the 11-(4-substituted-1-piperazinyl)dibenzo[b,f][1,4]thiazepine is quetiapine, (11-(4-(2-(2-hydroxyethoxy)ethyl)-1-piperazinyl)dibenzo[b,f][1,4]thiazepine). The process may comprise an additional step of reacting the quetiapine with fumaric acid to obtain quetiapine hemifumarate.

Abstract: A process for the preparation of (S)-omeprazole from racemic omeprazole via the formation of an inclusion complex with (S)-1,1,2-triphenyl-1,2-ethanediol. (S)-Omeprazole is recovered in a substantially optically pure form either in neutral form or as a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or as its solvates including hydrates. The (S)-omeprazole 2[(S)-1,1,2-triphenyl-1,2-ethanediol] inclusion complex is new. This resolution process proceeds with high yields and high optical purity.

Abstract: Process for the obtaining of 1-adamantane (tricycle[3.3.1.1 (3,7)]decane) derivatives, or of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, based on a carboxylation reaction, via metallation, of a precursor compound with an adequate leaving group. It also comprises the preparation of the precursor compound by means of a selective coupling of the corresponding boron, magnesium or zinc derivative with the corresponding disubstitute aromatic derivative. It is especially useful for the obtaining of Adapalene at industrial scale with good yield and high purity.

Abstract: Process for preparing montelukast or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, especially its sodium salt, that comprises the condensation of an aldehyde and 7-chloro-2-methylquinoline. Moreover, novel intermediates useful for the synthesis of montelukast are described as well as their preparation.
