  • Method for crystallization of 2-amino-2-[2-[4-(3-benzyloxyphenylthio)-2-chlorophenyl]ethyl]-1,3-propanediol hydrochloride
    Patent number: 9920005
    Abstract: A method for highly efficiently preparing high purity crystals of 2-amino-2-[2-[4-(3-benzyloxyphenylthio)-2-chloro-phenyl]-ethyl]-1,3-propanediol hydrochloride. The method involves dissolving 2-amino-2-[2-[4-(3-benzyloxyphenylthio)-2-chlorophenyl]ethyl]-1,3-propanediol in a mixed solvent comprising a solvent in which its hydrochloride is highly soluble and a solvent in which its hydrochloride is less soluble, to prepare a solution of 2-amino-2-[2-[4-(3-benzyloxyphenylthio)-2-chlorophenyl]ethyl]-1,3-propanediol; and then adding hydrochloric acid to the resulting solution with stirring, to crystallize the hydrochloride of 2-amino-2-[2-[4-(3-benzyloxyphenylthio)-2-chloro-phenyl]ethyl]-1,3-propanediol.

  • Process for producing 2-amino-2-[2-[4-(3-benzyloxyphenylthio)-2-chlorophenyl]ethyl]-1,3-propanediol hydrochloride and hydrates thereof, and intermediates in the production thereof
    Patent number: 7795472
    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.
