Abstract: The present invention provides aqueous ophthalmic compositions in the form of solution comprising hexanoic acid, 6-(nitrooxy)-, (1S,2E)-3-[(1R,2R,3S,5R)-2-[(2Z)-7-(ethylamino)-7-oxo-2-hepten-1-yl]-3,5-dihydroxycyclopentyl]-1-(2-phenylethyl)-2-propen-1-yl ester and macrogol 15 hydroxystearate as the only solubilizing agent, and a method for their preparation.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for preparing the hexanoic acid, 6-(nitrooxy)-, (1S,2E)-3-[(1R,2R,3S,5R)-2-[(2Z)-7-(ethylamino)-7-oxo-2-hepten-1-yl]-3,5-dihydroxycyclopentyl]-1-(2-phenylethyl)-2-propen-1-yl ester of formula (I). In accordance with the present invention, the compound (I) can be efficiently prepared with high purity by coupling bimatoprost in a boronate protected form with 6-(nitrooxy)hexanoyl chloride and removing the boronate protecting group. The 6-(nitrooxy)hexanoyl chloride intermediate is prepared by ring-opening reaction of 2-caprolactone and subsequent nitration of the 6-hydroxyhexanoic acid potassium salt with a mixture of HNO3 and H2SO4 in dichloromethane.
