Publication number: 20080275246Abstract: A halide salt of a 1-(hydroxyiminomethyl-1-pyridino)-3-(halomethyl)-2-oxapropane is prepared by adding a pyridinealdoxime to a bis-halomethylether in such a manner that the bis-halomethylether is maintained in excess throughout the addition. This procedure produces the halide salt of a 1-(hydroxyiminomethyl-1-pyridino)-3-(halomethyl)-2-oxapropane in high yield and purity, which facilitates its use as an intermediate in the manufacture of an asymmetrically substituted 1,3-di(1-pyridino)-2-oxapropane, a class of compounds that are generally useful antidotes to various toxic agents. A prominent member of the class is the dimethylsulfonate salt of 1-(2-hydroxyiminomethyl-1-pyridino)-3-(4-carbamoyl-1-pyridino)-2-oxapropane. The use of mercaptoalkyl-functionalized polymers is disclosed as a preferred metal ion scavenger for a final purification step in the manufacture of these compounds.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 15, 2008Publication date: November 6, 2008Applicant: Aerojet Fine Chemicals LLC.Inventors: Der-Shing Huang, George R. Gettys, Olivier Dapremont, Aslam A. Malik

Patent number: 7414144Abstract: The present invention provides a new process for the preparation of 2S,3S-N-isobutyl-N-(2-hydroxy-3-amino-4-phenylbutyl)-p-nitrobenzenesulfonylamide hydrochloride, wherein this compound is prepared directly from the chloromethylalcohol. Importantly, the process of the present invention results in higher yields of 2S,3S-N-isobutyl-N-(2-hydroxy-3-amino-4-phenylbutyl)-p-nitrobenzenesulfonylamide hydrochloride without sacrificing its purity. The processes of the present invention can be used to prepare not only the 2S,3S-derivative, but also the 2R,3S-, 2S,2R- and the 2R,3R-derivatives.Type: GrantFiled: February 7, 2005Date of Patent: August 19, 2008Assignee: Aerojet Fine Chemicals LLCInventors: Aslam A. Malik, Hasan Palandoken, Joy A. Stringer, Roland P. Carlson, John Leach, Thomas G. Archibald, Robert G. Miotke

Patent number: 7414135Abstract: A halide salt of a 1-(hydroxyiminomethyl-1-pyridino)-3-(halomethyl)-2-oxapropane is prepared by adding a pyridinealdoxime to a bis-halomethylether in such a manner that the bis-halomethylether is maintained in excess throughout the addition. This procedure produces the halide salt of a 1-(hydroxyiminomethyl-1-pyridino)-3-(halomethyl) -2-oxapropanein high yield and purity, which facilitates its use as an intermediate in the manufacture of an asymmetrically substituted 1,3-di (1-pyridino)-2-oxapropane, a class of compounds that are generally useful antidotes to various toxic agents. A prominent member of the class is the dimethylsulfonate salt of 1-(2-hydroxyiminomethyl-1-pyridino)-3 -(4-carbamoyl-1-pyridino)-2-oxapropane.
