  • Publication number: 20130046100
    Abstract: The chiral compound S-5-substituted-N-2?-(thienyl-2-yl-)ethyl-tetralin-2-amine or its chiral acid salts and preparation method thereof are disclosed, and the method for preparing Rotigotine by using the chiral compound is also disclosed. Racemic 5-substituted-N-2?-(thien-2-yl-)ethyl-tetralin-2-amine (compound 1) is resolved by using a conventional chiral acid to obtain an optically pure chiral acid salt of S-5-substituted-N-2?-(thien-2-yl-)ethyl-tetralin-2-amine, which is then dissociated to obtain S-5-substituted-N-2?-(thien-2-yl-)ethyl-tetralin-2-amine (compound 2). The compound 2 or chiral acid salt thereof is alkylated and deprotected to produce rotigotine (compound 5).
