  • Publication number: 20110130378
    Abstract: The present invention describes a process for producing ezetimibe (EZT) from a protected compound, including a step of deprotecting the 4-(p-hydroxyphenyl) protection group by catalytic hydrogenation, wherein the catalyst is used in an amount of 0.7 wt.-% or lower, relative to the weight of the compound used for the deprotection reaction. After carrying out a step of deprotection reaction, the process preferably comprises: (a) the reaction product is dissolved or extracted in ethyl acetate, and (b) the ethyl acetate solution is washed with an aqueous salt solution. The invention further describes a process for obtaining pure EZT, wherein raw EZT is dissolved in a solvent at a concentration of lower than 0.1 g/ml, and a crystallization step is carried out from this solution.

  • Publication number: 20090234139
    Abstract: A novel process for the preparation of 1?-hydroxy-2?-substituted cyclohexyl azetidin-2-one compound of formula 2, which is important intermediate in the synthesis of trinems, is described by epoxide ring opening of (3S,4R)-3-[(1R)-1-(tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy)ethyl]-4-[(1?R,2?S,3?R)-1?,2?-epoxycyclohexan-3?-yl]azetidin-2-one of formula 1 with the nucleophile compound of formula RYH, where nucleophile may act as solvent itself if the nucleophile is in the liquid form, in a suitable solvent and in the presence of a suitable catalyst from the group of salt of trifluoromethane sulfonic acid, preferably ytterbium (III) trifluoromethanesulfonate, stannous (II) trifluoromethanesulfonate or dysprosium (III) trifluoromethanesulfonate, under a) ultrasonic irradiation or b) under microwave irradiation of the reaction mixture following by isolation and purification of the desired compound.

  • Publication number: 20090176849
    Abstract: The invention relates to a new process for the preparation of sartans 2-butyl-3-[[2?-[1-(triphenylmethyl)-1H-tetrazol-5-yl][1,1?-biphenyl]-4-yl]methyl]-1,3-diazaspiro[4.4]non-1-en-4-one is disclosed, which proceeds via novel intermediate, 4-[(2-butyl-4-oxo-1,3-diazaspiro[4.4]non-1-en-3-yl)methyl]phenylboronic acid (Formula (II)) or its analogs. Compound (II) reacts with 5-(2-bromophenyl)-1-(triphenylmethyl)-1H-tetrazole (III) in the presence of catalyst, using conditions of Suzuki reaction, to give trityl irbesartan (I), whereas analogs to compound (II) may give candesartan, valsartan, telmisartan, losartan and olmesartan.
