Safe, small scale access to supercritical fluids

The ability to safely access high temperatures and pressures in flow reactors has implications not only on the rate of chemical reactions, but also on the types of solvents one can use. Many greensolvents such as methanol and acetone have boiling points too low for certain batch applications, whereas performing reactions at high pressure in a flow reactor may allow for their safe use at elevated temperatures.

Supercritical fluids are particularly interesting, since these solvents are entirely inaccessible without high pressure conditions. The use of supercritical fluids in a flow system offers numerous advantages over batch reactors.

Reactions may be performed on a small scale, improving safety and reducing the amount of material required. Depending on the type of reactor, it may be possible to visualize the reaction to evaluate the phase behaviour. Moreover, the reaction can be analyzed and the temperature and pressure subsequently changed without stopping the reaction and cleaning the vessel, as is necessary in a simple autoclave.

Continuous methods for utilizing supercritical fluids for extraction,1 chromatography,2 and as a reaction medium3 have all been commercialized, particularly for supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2).4 Academic examples using scMeOH, scH2O, and scCO2 for continuous reactions such as hydrogenations, esterifications, oxidations, and Friedel–Crafts reactions have been reported.5

A recent example that illustrates many of the green advantages of performing supercritical fluid chemistry in flow is in the ring opening of phthalic anhydride with methanol by Verboom and co-workers (Scheme 1).6 They designed a microreactor with a volume of just 0.32 μL that can withstand very high pressures.

The exceptionally small channel causes a large build-up of pressure, and supercritical conditions with pressures of up to 110 bar and temperatures up to 100 °C can occur inside the reactor, giving an ‘on-chip’ phase transition. The channel size increases near the outlet, allowing the fluid to expand to atmospheric conditions.

Thus, the total volume of scCO2 under high pressure is exceptionally small, alleviating the major hazards of operating under supercritical conditions. The reaction was thoroughly studied on this small scale, allowing the authors to determine rate constants at several different temperatures and pressures.

Small scale continuous use of supercritical fluids.

Near- and supercritical water (scH2O) can be an interesting green solvent only obtainable at very high temperature (Tc = 374 °C) and pressure (Pc = 221 bar). It is commonly used for completeoxidation of organic waste materials to CO2; however, it has also been shown to be an effective solvent for selective oxidations.7 Given the harshness of the reaction conditions, it is not surprising that side product formation is common and highly dependent on the reaction time. For fast reactions in a batch reactor, precise control of reaction time is challenging, as the vessel takes time to heat and cool. In contrast, rapid heating, cooling, and quenching can be accomplished in a continuous process, allowing for well defined reaction times.

Fine tuning of the temperature, pressure, and time is also easier in a continuous process, as these variables can be changed without stopping and starting the reaction between samples. Thus, more data points can be obtained with less material and fewer heating and cooling cycles.

The Poliakoff group used these advantageous to perform a detailed study on the oxidation of p-xylene to terephthalic acid in scH2O, a reaction carried out on industrial scale in acetic acid (Scheme 2).8 By using a flow reactor, reaction times as low as 9 seconds could be used. The equivalents of oxygen could also be finely varied on a small scale through the controlled thermal decomposition of H2O2.

Studying this aerobic oxidation with such precision in a batch process would prove highly challenging. Under optimal conditions, excellent selectivity for the desired product could be obtained. Further research by the same group identified improved conditions for this transformation.9

Cyclopentene-1,3-dione derivative

 PROCESS, spectroscopy, SYNTHESIS  Comments Off on Cyclopentene-1,3-dione derivative
Jul 202015
 

the isolated cyclopentenedione derivative may have structure 1a or 1b or even exist as an equilibrium mixture between these two enol forms showing average 1H and 13C NMR spectra due to a proposed rapid interconversion between 1a and 1b.

http://www.scielo.br/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&pid=S0103-50532005000300024

 

Synthetic results

Our approach to cyclopentenedione derivative (1) started with the preparation of furylmethylcarbinol (3) by the reduction of commercially available 2-acetylfuran (2) with NaBH4 (Scheme 2).5 Compound 3 was isolated in 98% yield and transformed into 4-hydroxy-5-methylcyclopenten-2-one (4) in 90% yield after treatment with ZnCl2-HCl (pH 6.0) under reflux in dioxane-H2O for 48 h.6 Upon treatment of 4-hydroxy-5-methylcyclopenten-2-one (4) with phosphate buffer (pH 8.0) in refluxing dioxane for 24 h, 4-hydroxy-2-methylcyclopenten-2-one (5) was obtained in 65% yield.By using this strategy we were able to prepare up to gram quantities of hydroxyketone 5.

 

 

Diketone 6 was obtained in almost quantitative yield by the smooth oxidation of hydroxyketone 5 with MnO2(Scheme 3).8,9 At this point, all that remained was to carry out the necessary acylation coupling. It was with some gratification that we observed that the reaction between lithium enolate of diketone 6 and cinnamic anhydride 7 gave a 57:43 mixture of cyclopentenediones 1a/1b in 22% yield, after purification by flash column chromatography, together with starting material and by-products arising from O-acylation (Scheme 3).

 

 

 

 

 

In order to try to improve the yields for formation of 1a/1b, we tested a new synthetic route (Scheme 4). Protection of the OH-functionality in 5 with TESCl and imidazole at room temperature gave ketone 8 in 85% yield. Treatment of 8 with LDA in THF at –78 ºC, followed by slow addition of cinnamaldehyde, gave aldol adduct 9 as a mixture of diastereoisomers. Oxidation of the OH-function at C9 in allylic alcohol 9 under standard Swern11 conditions followed by removal of the TES protecting group with TBAF in THF led to diol 10 in 60% overall yield. The last step involved treatment of diol 10 under standard Swern oxidation conditions, to give a 59:41 mixture of 1a/1b in 79% yield.11

 

The correct structure for the natural product was confirmed as being 1a by the heteronuclear long-range coupling (nJCH; n = 2,3,4) obtained by HMBC experiments in CDCl3 as solvent. Heteronuclear long-range coupling of C11 (dC 201.3) with H13 (d6.70, 3JCH) and H15 (d2.12, 3JCH), as well as between C14 (dC 191.8) with H13 (d6.70, 2JCH) and H15 (d2.12, 4JCH) for 1a, together with the long-range coupling of C11 (dC 200.7) with H12 (d6.61, 2JCH) and H15 (d2.11, 4JCH), as well as between C14 (dC 192.3) with H12 (d6.61, 3JCH) and H15 (d2.11 ppm, 3JCH) for 1b, unambiguously established the correct structure as being 1a (Figure 10).

Flow chemistry can make processes greener….Swern oxidation

 MANUFACTURING, PROCESS, SYNTHESIS  Comments Off on Flow chemistry can make processes greener….Swern oxidation
Jul 202015
 

The Swern oxidation, named after Daniel Swern, is a chemical reaction whereby a primary or secondary alcohol is oxidized to an aldehyde or ketone using oxalyl chloride,dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and an organic base, such as triethylamine.The reaction is known for its mild character and wide tolerance of functional groups.

The Swern oxidation.

The by-products are dimethyl sulfide (Me2S), carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2) and — when triethylamine is used as base — triethylammonium chloride (Et3NHCl). Two of the by-products, dimethyl sulfide and carbon monoxide, are very toxic volatile compounds, so the reaction and the work-up needs to be performed in a fume hood.Dimethyl sulfide is a volatile liquid (B.P. 37 °C) with an extremely unpleasant odour.

The first step of the Swern oxidation is the low-temperature reaction of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), 1a, formally as resonance contributor 1b, with oxalyl chloride, 2. The first intermediate, 3, quickly decomposes giving off CO2 and CO and producing chloro(dimethyl)sulfonium chloride, 4.

Dimethylchlorosulfonium chloride formation.

After addition of the alcohol 5, the chloro(dimethyl)sulfonium chloride 4 reacts with the alcohol to give the key alkoxysulfonium ion intermediate, 6. The addition of at least 2 equivalents of base — typically triethylamine — will deprotonate the alkoxysulfonium ion to give the sulfur ylide 7. In a five-membered ring transition state, the sulfur ylide 7decomposes to give dimethyl sulfide and the desired ketone (or aldehyde) 8.

 

 

Dimethyl sulfide, a byproduct of the Swern oxidation, is one of the most foul odors known in organic chemistry. Human olfactory glands can detect this compound in concentrations as low as 0.02 to 0.1 parts per million. A simple remedy for this problem is to rinse used glassware with bleach (usually containing sodium hypochlorite), which will oxidize the dimethyl sulfide, eliminating the smell.

The reaction conditions allow oxidation of acid-sensitive compounds, which might decompose under the acidic conditions of a traditional method such as Jones oxidation. For example, in Thompson & Heathcock’s synthesis of the sesquiterpene isovelleral,the final step uses the Swern protocol, avoiding rearrangement of the acid-sensitive cyclopropanemethanol moiety.

Rapid, exothermic reactions are challenging to do in batch reactors. Reagents such as organometallics, strong bases, and highly active electrophiles are often added slowly to a reaction mixture under energy-intensive cryogenic conditions to prevent an uncontrollable exotherm. Quenching of these high-energy reagents may again require low temperature. This issue is scale dependent,1 and without proper precautions, both the likelihood and hazard of a runaway reaction increase with the size of a reactor.

The high surface area to volume ratio found in flow reactors makes heat transfer more efficient than in batch, allowing rapid removal of thermal energy given off. These features serve to give the chemist or engineer more control over reaction temperature and reduces the risk of thermal runaway.

Many instances have been reported of reactions being performed safely at 0 °C or room temperature in flow that would require cryogenic conditions in batch.2,3,4 This has a further benefit on the overall processing time, as the reaction will occur faster at the elevated temperature and inefficient cooling and warming steps are avoided. A remarkable example demonstrating these principles is the room temperature Swern oxidation reaction by Yoshida and co-workers .5

The Swern reaction is a reliable procedure for converting alcohols to ketones and aldehydes using DMSOactivated by an electrophile (typically COCl2 or TFAA) as the oxidant. In batch, the reaction takes place over three exothermic steps, each of which requires dropwise addition of reagents at cryogenic temperatures.6, 7

PROCESS TO FLOW

When converting the process to flow, the Yoshida group found that the Swern oxidation could be done at room temperature with good yields and purity. Moreover, instead of having reaction times on the order of minutes or hours, the whole process was completed in seconds. They attributed the success of their process to the precise temperature control that can be obtained in flow systems, as well as the ability to quickly transfer unstable intermediates to subsequent steps. Using only a series of syringe pumps, stainless steel tubing, and commercial micromixers, they could prepare over 10 grams of material per hour. Being able to perform reactions on species with very short lifetimes is another general advantage of performing reactions in flow.8

Abstract

Dysregulation of the Wnt signaling cascades is implicated in multiple disorders. There are 19 human Wnts that mediate signaling through diverse downstream pathways. To achieve maximum benefit from inhibition of Wnt signaling, targeting all of these pathways may be useful. The secretion and biological activity of all human Wnts requires palmitoylation mediated by Porcupine (PORCN), an endoplasmic reticulum-localized membrane bound O-acyltransferase. Several small molecule inhibitors of PORCN have been developed. Here we report a novel pharmacophore with derivatives that are nanomolar inhibitors of Wnt signaling. By a number of criteria, these compounds potently inhibit PORCN catalytic activity and hence suppress downstream Wnt-activated signaling pathways. The compounds effectively reduce autocrine Wnt signaling activity in selected cancer cell lines. The inhibitory activity is stereospecific, as an (R) enantiomer is inactive. Compounds with good oral bioavailability were tested for their in vivo activity and found to be highly efficacious in reversing tumor growth in both MMTV-WNT1 mice and of tumor xenografts. Treated tumors showed marked nuclear exclusion and decreased cytoplasmic staining of beta-catenin compared to vehicle controls. Importantly the treatment modulated downstream markers of Wnt signaling. No signs of toxicity were observed in mice at therapeutically effective doses. These results and our published results on C59 demonstrate that inhibiting the Wnt/beta-catenin pathway by targeting PORCN with small-molecule inhibitors is a feasible and nontoxic strategy.

SINGAPORE: A made-in-Singapore cancer drug is touted to be the first publicly-funded drug candidate discovered and developed in Singapore to make it to trials on humans.

In a statement on Thursday (Jul 16), The Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR) and Duke-National University of Singapore Graduate Medical School (Duke-NUS), announced the start of the Phase I clinical trial of novel cancer drug candidate, ETC-159.

The Phase I clinical trial is meant to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ETC-159 in advanced solid tumours of up to 58 patients, and the first patient was dosed on Jun 18. The first two sites for the trial are the National Cancer Centre Singapore and the National University Hospital, and sites in the US will be added as the trial progresses.

The drug is expected to target a range of cancers, including colorectal, ovarian and pancreatic cancers. These cancers are linked to a group of cell signalling pathways known as Wnt signalling, which have been identified to promote cancer growth and spread, said the agencies. ETC-159 acts as an inhibitor of these pathways.

“This drug candidate therefore offers a promising novel and targeted cancer therapy that could shape future cancer therapeutic strategies,” said A*STAR and Duke-NUS.

ETC-159 was discovered and developed through a collaboration between A*STAR’s Experimental Therapeutics Centre (ETC), Drug Discovery and Development (D3) unit and Duke-NUS since 2009. It was based on the discovery work of Prof David Virshup from Duke-NUS.

Prof David Virshup, inaugural Director of the Programme in Cancer and Stem Cell Biology at Duke-NUS, said: “As the drug candidate provides a targeted cancer therapy, it could potentially minimise side effects and make cancer treatments more bearable for cancer patients.”

He added: “It is fitting that Singaporeans might be the first to benefit from this Singapore-developed drug.”

Facile One-Pot Transformation of Arenes into Aromatic Nitriles under Metal-Cyanide-Free Conditions

Abstract

Electron-rich arenes bearing methyl or methoxy groups on the aromatic ring were treated with dichloromethyl methyl ether and ZnBr2, and then with molecular iodine and aq. ammonia to give the corresponding aromatic nitriles in good yields. Using this method, febuxostat was efficiently prepared from 4-bromophenol in four steps. The method can be used for the preparation of aromatic nitriles from arenes in one pot under metal-cyanide-free conditions.

The nitrile moiety is an important group that is found in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. In addition the nitrile can serve as a stable intermediate for amides, carboxylic acids, ketones, aldehydes, etc. As a result, many methods to make nitriles have been reported. In a new publication Togo et al. report their development of a one-pot metal-cyanide-free protocol to make electron-rich aromatic nitriles ( Eur. J. Org. Chem. 2015, 2023). The reaction first reacts arenes with zinc bromide (ZnBr2) and dichloromethyl methyl ether to make in situ the (dichloromethyl)arene, that then reacts with aq. ammonia and iodine to make the nitrile. The electron-rich aromatic nitriles are formed in moderate-to-high yields (59–94%). They demonstrate usefulness of this reaction by synthesizing febuxostat.

What is SBM-TFC-039 an SGLT Inhibitor from Sirona Biochem

 diabetes, Uncategorized  Comments Off on What is SBM-TFC-039 an SGLT Inhibitor from Sirona Biochem
Jul 152015
 

A new “flozin” seems to me appearing on the horizon in form of SBM-TFC-039 an SGLT Inhibitor from Sirona Biochem, picked up a list from WO 2012160218,  from TFChem…….see link , Sirona Biochem Announces SGLT2 Inhibitor and Skin Lightening Patent Granted, 29 Jun 2015, Patent entitled “Family of aryl, heteroaryl, o-aryl and o-heteroaryl carbasugars”

This led me to search, “Family of aryl, heteroaryl, o-aryl and o-heteroaryl carbasugars”

Just scrolling through the patent gave me more insight

MORE EVIDENCE….http://www.google.com/patents/WO2012160218A1?cl=en, this patent descibes compd 16 as follows

Compound 16 according to the invention has been compared to Dapaglifozin to underline the improvement of the duration of action, i.e. the longer duration of glucosuria, of the compound when the intracyclic oxygen atom of the glucose moiety is replaced by a CF2 moiety.

 

Figure imgf000091_0001

This assay has been carried out at a dose of 3 mg/ kg.

The results obtained are presented on Figure 5. It appears thus that 16 (3 mg/kg) triggered glucosuria that lasted beyond 24 hours compared to Dapagliflozin.

• Compound 16 according to the invention has been compared to the compound 9 of WO 2009/1076550 to underline the improvement of the duration of action of the compound when a mimic of glucose bearing a CH-OH moiety instead of the intracyclic oxygen atom is replaced by a mimic of glucose bearing a CF2 in place of the CH-OH moiet .

Sirona Biochem’s SGLT Inhibitor Performs Better Than Johnson and Johnson’s SGLT Inhibitor, According to Study

Vancouver, British Columbia – December 7, 2012 – Sirona Biochem Corp. (TSX-V: SBM), announced its sodium glucose transporter (SGLT) inhibitor for Type 2 diabetes reduced blood glucose more effectively than Johnson and Johnson’s canagliflozin, an advanced SGLT inhibitor being considered for market approval in Europe and the U.S.  Studies compared Sirona Biochem’s SGLT Inhibitor, SBM-TFC-039, with canagliflozin and were conducted on Zucker Diabetic Fatty (ZDF) rats.

In the study, SBM-TFC-039 significantly and rapidly reduced blood glucose levels at a dose of 1.0 mg/kg.  Six (6) hours after administration, SBM-TFC-039 reduced blood glucose by 44% compared to canagliflozin at 26%.  SBM-TFC-039 also had a longer duration of effect than canagliflozin.  At 36 and 48 hours after treatment, SBM-TFC-039, at a dose of 1.0 mg/kg, was still effective at reducing blood glucose, whereas canagliflozin lost its effect after 36 hours.  Studies were conducted at the Institut Universitaire de Cardiologie et de Pneumologie de Québec (IUCPQ) by Principal Investigator Dr. Denis Richard, Research Chair on Obesity and Professor, Faculty of Medicine, Department of Anatomy & Physiology at Laval University.

“SGLT Inhibitors are a ground-breaking new treatment for Type 2 diabetes and these results demonstrate that SBM-TFC-039 will be a significant competitor for other SGLT Inhibitors,” said Neil Belenkie, Chief Executive Officer of Sirona Biochem. “The first SGLT Inhibitor,Forxiga™, was approved last month by the European Commission.  We believe there is tremendous market potential worldwide for SGLT Inhibitors in the treatment of diabetes.”

SBM-TFC-039 is a sodium glucose transporter (SGLT) inhibitor.  SGLT inhibitors are a new class of drug candidates for the treatment of diabetes. In the kidneys, SGLT inhibitors reduce the reabsorption of glucose into the bloodstream by eliminating excess glucose into the urine.

Treatment of Hypogonadism

Androgen Decline in the Aging Male (Andropause) in phase 2

Fispemifene is the Z-isomer of the compound of formula (I)

 

Figure US07504530-20090317-C00004

WO 01/36360 describes a group of SERMs, which are tissue-specific estrogens and which can be used in women in the treatment of climacteric symptoms, osteoporosis, Alzheimer’s disease and/or cardiovascular diseases without the carcinogenic risk. Certain compounds can be given to men to protect them against osteoporosis, cardiovascular diseases and Alzheimer’s disease without estrogenic adverse events (gynecomastia, decreased libido etc.). Of the compounds described in said patent publication, the compound (Z)-2-{2-[4-(4-chloro-1,2-diphenylbut-1-enyl)phenoxy]ethoxy}ethanol (also known under the generic name fispemifene) has shown a very interesting hormonal profile suggesting that it will be especially valuable for treating disorders in men. WO 2004/108645 and WO 2006/024689 suggest the use of fispemifene for treatment or prevention of age-related symptoms in men, such as lower urinary tract symptoms and diseases or disorders related to androgen deficiency in men.

Quatrx had been conducting phase II clinical development for the treatment of androgen decline in the aging male. Unlike testosterone replacement therapies that are typically topical or injection therapies, fispemifene is an oral treatment and is not a formulation of testosterone. Fispemifene utilizes the body’s normal feedback mechanism to increase testosterone levels. Originally developed at Hormos, QuatRx gained rights to the drug candidate following a merger of the companies pursuant to which Hormos became a wholly-owned subsidiary of QuatRx.

Known methods for the syntheses of compounds like ospemifene and fispemifene include rather many steps. WO 02/090305 describes a method for the preparation of fispemifene, where, in a first step, a triphenylbutane compound with a dihydroxysubstituted butane chain is obtained. This compound is in a second step converted to a triphenylbutene where the chain is 4-chlorosubstituted. Then the desired Z-isomer is crystallized. Finally, the protecting group is removed to release the ethanol-ethoxy chain of the molecule.

Fispemifene is a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) studied in phase II clinical trials at Forendo Pharma for the treatment low testosterone in men. The compound is also in phase II clinical studies at Apricus for the treatment of men with secondary hypogonadism.

In 2013, Forendo Pharma acquired the drug from Hormos Medical for the treatment of male low testosterone.

In 2014, Apricus Biosciences acquired U.S. rights for development and commercialization

On 10 May 2012, after a new round of studies submitted by Arena, an FDA panel voted to recommend lorcaserin with certain restrictions and patient monitoring. The restrictions include patients with a BMI of over 30, or with a BMI over 27 and a comorbidity such as high blood pressure or type 2 diabetes.

On 27 June 2012, the FDA officially approved lorcaserin for use in the treatment of obesity for adults with a BMI equal to or greater than 30 or adults with a BMI of 27 or greater who “have at least one weight-related health condition, such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, or high cholesterol

Useful for treating obesity.

The present invention relates to stable crystalline Form I of Iorcaserin hydrochloride of Formula (IA) and processes for its preparation. The invention also relates to processes for the preparation of lorcaserin and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates and hydrates thereof.

 

front page image

Stable crystalline form I of lorcaserin hydrochloride and its process of preparation are claimed.  Represents the first patenting from Cadila on lorcaserin, which was developed and launched by Arena Pharma and Eisai.

In July 2015, Newport Premium™ reported that Cadila is potentially interested in lorcaserin.

 

Lorcaserin hydrochloride is an agonist of the 5-HT2c receptor and shows effectiveness at reducing obesity in animal models and humans developed by Arena Pharmaceuticals. It is chemically represented as (R)-8-chloro-l -methyl -2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-lH-3-benzazepine hydrochloride having Formula (I) as depicted herein below.

(IA)

U.S. Patent No. 6,953,787 B2 discloses compound of Formula (I) and pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvates or hydrates thereof and process for preparation thereof.

U.S. Patent No. 8,168,624 B2 discloses (R)-8-chloro-l-methyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-lH-3-benzazepine hydrochloride hemihydrate and process for its preparation. The patent also discloses crystalline Form I, Form II and Form III of (R)-8-chloro-l-methyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-lH-3-benzazepine hydrochloride. The crystalline Form

I and Form II are reported as anhydrous, non-solvated crystal forms. The crystalline Form III displays a dehydration feature calculated as a 3.7% weight loss which is consistent with the theoretical weight loss of 3.7% for a hemihydrate.

The patent discloses that anhydrous Form I and Form II readily converts to a hemihydrate, upon exposure to moisture. The dynamic vapor sorption (DVS) data for each of the three crystal forms reveals the hygroscopic nature of both Forms I and II, which readily adsorb moisture at relative humidity (RH) greater than about 40-60%. In addition, both Forms I and II were calculated to adsorb about 3.8% moisture between about 40 and about 80% RH which is consistent with conversion to the hemihydrate (Form III). X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) carried out on both Forms I and II after the DVS cycle confirmed this conversion. In contrast, the DVS data in connection with Form III shows that it is substantially non-hygroscopic, adsorbing less than 0.5% water at 90% RH and the XRPD pattern showed no change in crystalline form after the DVS cycle.

International (PCT) Publication Nos. WO 2003/086306 Al, WO 2005/019179 Al, WO 2006/069363 Al, WO 2007/120517 Al, WO 2008/07011 1 Al and WO 2009/1 1 1004 Al disclose various synthetic approaches for the preparation of (R)-8-chloro-l-methyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-lH-3-benzazepine, its related salts, enantiomers, crystalline forms and intermediates.

In a round bottom flask, 560g of methyl ethyl ketone and 40 ml water were taken and 100 g of 8-chloro-l-methyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-lH-3-benzazepine was added and stirred for 10 minutes. The reaction mass heated to 55 to 60°C and 19.3 g of. L-(+)-tartaric acid was added slowly and stirred for one to two hours. The reaction mass was further stirred at 10-15°C for an hour and the product was filtered and washed with a mixture of methyl ethyl ketone and water. The wet cake and 150 ml methyl ethyl ketone were taken in another flask and heated to 75-80°C. 20-25 ml water was, added and stirred for an hour. Further, the reaction mass was stirred for an hour at 0-5°C. The product was filtered and washed with methyl ethyl ketone.

100 g tartrate salt of 8-chloro-l-methyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-lH-3-benzazepine and 300 mL water were taken in another round bottom flask. 200 mL methylene dichloride was added and the reaction mass was cooled to 10-20°C. 17.2 g sodium hydroxide dissolved in 89 ml water was added into the reaction mass at 10-20°C. The reaction mass was stirred for an hour at 25-30°C and the layers were separated. The solvent was removed from the organic layer under vacuum and then 100 mL ethyl acetate was added into that and distilled out. Further, 100 mL ethyl acetate was added and stirred for 15 minutes. The reaction mass was filtered through a hyflow bed and the filtrate was treated with dry HC1 gas till a pH of 1.5 to 2.5 was obtained at 0-10°C and it was stirred for about 30 minutes to an hour. The product was then filtered and washed with ethyl acetate and then dried in a vacuum oven at 50°C to 55°C for 2 hours. The product was further dried at 90°C to 110°C for 20 hours to obtain crystalline Form I of lorcaserin hydrochloride. Yield: 87.5-98.6 %.

Example-8: Preparation of crystalline Form I of lorcaserin hydrochloride

In a round bottom flask, 2.20 g lorcaserin, 30 mL methylene chloride, 17.4 mL of 1M HCI in ether were added and the mixture was stirred for 5-15 minutes at room temperature. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure to give a white solid. This solid was again dissolved in 30 ml methylene chloride, 17.4 mL of 1M HCI solution and stirred for 5-15 minutes at room temperature. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure to give lorcaserin hydrochloride. The product was dried in a vacuum oven at 50°C to 55°C for 2 hours. The product was further dried at 90°C to 110°C for 20 hours to obtain crystalline Form I of lorcaserin hydrochloride.

Example-9: Preparation of crystalline Form I lorcaserin hydrochloride

50 g of lorcaserin hydrochloride hemihydrate and 50 g of hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose (HPMC) 3CPC were mixed in a blender at 25°C to 35°C. The mixture was mixed for 30 minutes and unloaded. The solid thus obtained was dried in a vacuum oven at 50°C to 55°C for 2 hours. The product was further dried at 90°C to 110°C for 20 hours to obtain crystalline Form I of lorcaserin hydrochloride.

TRIMYRISTIN.png

Occurrence

Trimyristin is found naturally in many vegetable fats and oils.

Isolation from nutmeg

Seed of nutmeg contains trimyristin

The isolation of trimyristin from powdered nutmeg is a common introductory-level college organic chemistry experiment. It is an uncommonly simple natural product extraction because nutmeg oil generally consists of over eighty percent trimyristin. Trimyristin makes up between 20-25% of the overall mass of dried, ground nutmeg. Separation is generally carried out by steam distillation and purification uses extraction from ether followed by distillation or rotary evaporation to remove the volatile solvent. The extraction of trimyristin can also be done with diethyl ether at room temperature, due to its high solubility in the ether. The experiment is frequently included in curricula, both for its relative ease and to provide instruction in these techniques.

Reaction……….http://kriemhild.uft.uni-bremen.de/nop/en/instructions/pdf/1021_en.pdf

The reaction apparatus consists of a 250 mL round-bottom flask with a magnetic stir bar and a 100 mL soxhlet extraction unit with a reflux condenser. 25 g of finely ground nutmeg are placed into the extraction sleeve and covered with a little glass wool. 150 mL tert-butyl methyl ether are placed into the flask and whilst stirring, the solvent is heated to reflux until the solvent leaving the extraction sleeve is colourless (approximately 5 hours).

Work up

The solvent is evaporated with a final pressure of 20 hPa. The flask containing the residue is cooled in an ice bath or the refrigerator until the contents has crystallized to a thick slurry.

Crude product yield: 12 g;

The crude product is recrystallized from the minimum amount of ethanol. Prior to filtering the crystals, the flask is placed into the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. The crystalline slurry is filtered and the product is dried in an evacuated desiccator over silica gel. Should the crystals not be colourless after the first recrystallization, a second recrystallization is carried out.

Yield: 6.5 g; melting point 54-55 °C;

Duration of the experiment

Without recrystallization 6 hours

Where can I stop the experiment?

Before and after the evaporation of the solvent

Recycling

Canagliflozin (INN, trade name Invokana) is a drug of the gliflozin class, used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes.[1][2] It was developed by Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma and is marketed under license by Janssen, a division of Johnson & Johnson.[3]

U.S. Patent No, 7,943,788 B2 (the ‘788 patent) discloses canagliflozin or salts thereof and the process for its preparation.

U.S. Patent Nos. 7,943,582 B2 and 8,513,202 B2 discloses crystalline form of 1 -(P-D-glucopyranosyl)-4-methyl-3-[5-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-thienylmethyl] benzene hemihydrate and process for preparation thereof. The US ‘582 B2 and US ‘202 B2 further discloses that preparation of the crystalline form of hemi-hydrate canagliflozin typically involves dissolving in a good solvent (e.g. ketones or esters) crude or amorphous compound prepared in accordance with the procedures described in WO 2005/012326 pamphlet, and adding water and a poor solvent (e.g. alkanes or ethers) to the resulting solution, followed by filtration.

U.S. PG-Pub. No. 2013/0237487 Al (the US ‘487 Al) discloses amorphous dapagliflozin and amorphous canagliflozin. The US ‘487 Al also discloses 1:1 crystalline complex of canagliflozin with L-proline (Form CS1), ethanol solvate of a 1: 1 crystalline complex of canagliflozin with D-proline (Form CS2), 1 :1 crystalline complex of canagliflozin with L-phenylalanine (Form CS3), 1:1 crystalline complex of canagliflozin with D-proline (Form CS4).

The US ‘487 Al discloses preparation of amorphous canagliflozin by adding its heated toluene solution into n-heptane. After drying in vacuo the product was obtained as a white solid of with melting point of 54.7°C to 72.0°C. However, upon repetition of the said experiment, the obtained amorphous canagliflozin was having higher amount of residual solvents. Therefore, the amorphous canagliflozin obtained by process as disclosed in US ‘487 Al is not suitable for pharmaceutical preparations.

The US ‘487 Al further discloses that amorphous canagliflozin obtained by the above process is hygroscopic in nature which was confirmed by Dynamic vapor sorption (DVS) analysis. Further, it was observed that the amorphous form underwent a physical change between the sorption/desorption cycle, making the sorption/desorption behavior different between the two cycles. The physical change that occurred was determined to be a conversion or partial conversion from the amorphous state to a crystalline state. This change was supported by a change in the overall appearance of the sample as the humidity increased from 70% to 90% RH.

The canagliflozin assessment report EMA/718531/2013 published by EMEA discloses that Canagliflozin hemihydrate is a white to off-white powder^ practically insoluble in water and freely soluble in ethanol and non-hygroscopic. Polymorphism has been observed for canagliflozin and the manufactured Form I is a hemihydrate, and an unstable amorphous Form II. Form I is consistently produced by the proposed commercial synthesis process. Therefore, it is evident from the prior art that the reported amorphous form of canagliflozin is unstable and hygroscopic as well as not suitable for pharmaceutical preparations due to higher amount of residual solvents above the ICH acceptable limits.

Medical use

    1. Canagliflozin is an antidiabetic drug used to improve glycemic control in people with type 2 diabetes. In extensive clinical trials, canagliflozin produced a consistent dose-dependent reduction in HbA1c of 0.77% to 1.16% when administered as monotherapy, combination with metformin, combination with metformin & Sulfonyulrea, combination with metformin & pioglitazone and In combination with insulin from a baselines of 7.8% to 8.1%, in combination with metformin, or in combination with metformin and a sulfonylurea. When added to metformin Canagliflozin 100mg was shown to be non-inferior to both Sitagliptin 100mg and glimiperide in reductions on HbA1c at one year, whilst canagliflozin 300mg successfully demontrated statistical superiority over both Sitagliptin and glimiperide in HbA1c reductions. Secondary efficacy endpoint of superior body weight reduction and blood pressure reduction (versus Sitagliptin and glimiperide)) were observed as well. Canagliflozin produces beneficial effects on HDL cholesterol whilst increasing LDL cholesterol to produce no change in total cholesterol.[4][5]

      Contraindications

      Canagliflozin has proven to be clinically effective in people with moderate renal failure and treatment can be continued in patients with renal impairment.

      Adverse effects

      Canagliflozin, as is common with all sglt2 inhibitors, increased (generally mild) urinary tract infections, genital fungal infections, thirst,[6] LDL cholesterol, and was associated with increased urination and episodes of low blood pressure.

      There are concerns it may increase the risk of diabetic ketoacidosis.[7]

      Cardiovascular problems have been discussed with this class of drugs.[citation needed] The pre-specified endpoint for cardiovascular safety in the canagliflozin clinical development program was Major Cardiovascular Events Plus (MACE-Plus), defined as the occurrence of any of the following events: cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke, or unstable angina leading to hospitalization. This endpoint occurred in more people in the placebo group (20.5%) than in the canagliflozin treated group (18.9%).

      Nonetheless, an FDA advisory committee expressed concern regarding the cardiovascular safety of canagliflozin. A greater number of cardiovascular events was observed during the first 30 days of treatment in canagliflozin treated people (0.45%) relative to placebo treated people (0.07%), suggesting an early period of enhanced cardiovascular risk. In addition, there was an increased risk of stroke in canagliflozin treated people. However none of these effects were seen as statistically significant. Additional cardiovascular safety data from the ongoing CANVAS trial is expected in 2015.[8]

      Interactions

      The drug may increase the risk of dehydration in combination with diuretic drugs.

      Because it increases renal excretion of glucose, treatment with canagliflozin prevents renal reabsorption of 1,5-anhydroglucitol, leading to artifactual decreases in serum 1,5-anhydroglucitol; it can therefore interfere with the use of serum 1,5-anhydroglucitol (assay trade name, GlycoMark) as a measure of postprandial glucose excursions.[9]

      Mechanism of action

      Canagliflozin is an inhibitor of subtype 2 sodium-glucose transport protein (SGLT2), which is responsible for at least 90% of the renal glucose reabsorption (SGLT1 being responsible for the remaining 10%). Blocking this transporter causes up to 119 grams of blood glucose per day to be eliminated through the urine,[10] corresponding to 476 kilocalories. Additional water is eliminated by osmotic diuresis, resulting in a lowering of blood pressure.

      This mechanism is associated with a low risk of hypoglycaemia (too low blood glucose) compared to other antidiabetic drugs such as sulfonylurea derivatives and insulin.[11]

      History

      On July 4, 2011, the European Medicines Agency approved a paediatric investigation plan and granted both a deferral and a waiver for canagliflozin (EMEA-001030-PIP01-10) in accordance with EC Regulation No.1901/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council.[12]

      In March 2013, canagliflozin became the first SGLT2 inhibitor to be approved in the United States.[13]

WO 2005/012326 pamphlet discloses a class of compounds that are inhibitors of sodium-dependent glucose transporter (SGLT) and thus of therapeutic use for treatment of diabetes, obesity, diabetic complications, and the like. There is described in WO 2005/012326 pamphlet 1-(β-D-glucopyranosyl)-4-methyl-3-[5-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-thienylmethyl]benzene of formula (I):

(1) To a solution of 5-bromo-1-[5-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-thienylmethyl]-2-methylbenzene (1, 28.9 g) in tetrahydrofuran (480 ml) and toluene (480 ml) was added n-butyllithium (1.6M hexane solution, 50.0 ml) dropwise at −67 to −70° C. under argon atmosphere, and the mixture was stirred for 20 minutes at the same temperature. Thereto was added a solution of 2 (34.0 g) in toluene (240 ml) dropwise at the same temperature, and the mixture was further stirred for 1 hour at the same temperature. Subsequently, thereto was added a solution of methanesulfonic acid (21.0 g) in methanol (480 ml) dropwise, and the resulting mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred for 17 hours. The mixture was cooled under ice—water cooling, and thereto was added a saturated aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate solution. The mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate, and the combined organic layer was washed with brine and dried over magnesium sulfate. The insoluble was filtered off and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was triturated with toluene (100 ml)—hexane (400 ml) to give 1-(1-methoxyglucopyranosyl)-4-methyl-3-[5-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-thienylmethyl]-benzene (3) (31.6 g). APCI-Mass m/Z 492 (M+NH4).

(2) A solution of 3 (63.1 g) and triethylsilane (46.4 g) in dichloromethane (660 ml) was cooled by dry ice-acetone bath under argon atmosphere, and thereto was added dropwise boron trifluoride•ethyl ether complex (50.0 ml), and the mixture was stirred at the same temperature. The mixture was allowed to warm to 0° C. and stirred for 2 hours. At the same temperature, a saturated aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate solution (800 ml) was added, and the mixture was stirred for 30 minutes. The organic solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, and the residue was poured into water and extracted with ethyl acetate twice. The organic layer was washed with water twice, dried over magnesium sulfate and treated with activated carbon. The insoluble was filtered off and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was dissolved in ethyl acetate (300 ml), and thereto were added diethyl ether (600 ml) and H2O (6 ml). The mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight, and the precipitate was collected, washed with ethyl acetate-diethyl ether (1:4) and dried under reduced pressure at room temperature to give 1-(β-D-glucopyranosyl)-4-methyl-3-[5-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-thienylmethyl]benzene hemihydrate (33.5 g) as colorless crystals.

there are a significant number of other β-C-arylglucoside derived drug candidates, most of which differ only in the aglycone moiety (i.e., these compounds comprise a central 1-deoxy-glucose ring moiety that is arylated at CI). It is this fact that makes them attractive targets for a novel synthetic platform technology, since a single methodology should be able to furnish a plurality of products. Among β-C-arylglucosides that possess known SGLT2 inhibition also currently in clinical development are canagliflozin, empagliflozin, and ipragliflozin.

Dapagliflozin                             Canagliflozin

Ipragliflozin …………………Empagliflozin

[0007] A series of synthetic methods have been reported in the peer-reviewed and patent literature that can be used for the preparation of β-C-arylglucosides. These methods are described below and are referred herein as the gluconolactone method, the metalated glucal method, the glucal epoxide method and the glycosyl leaving group substitution method.

[0008] The gluconolactone method: In 1988 and 1989 a general method was reported to prepare C-arylglucosides from tetra-6>-benzyl protected gluconolactone, which is an oxidized derivative of glucose (see J. Org. Chem. 1988, 53, 752-753 and J. Org. Chem. 1989, 54, 610- 612). The method comprises: 1) addition of an aryllithium derivative to the hydroxy-protected gluconolactone to form a hemiketal (a.k.ci., a lactol), and 2) reduction of the resultant hemiketal with triethylsilane in the presence of boron trifluoride etherate. Disadvantages of this classical, but very commonly applied method for β-C-arylglucoside synthesis include:

1) poor “redox economy” (see J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2008, 130, 17938-17954 and Anderson, N. G. Practical Process Research & Development, 1st Ed.; Academic Press, 2000 (ISBN- 10: 0120594757); pg 38)— that is, the oxidation state of the carbon atom at CI, with respect to glucose, is oxidized in the gluconolactone and then following the arylation step is reduced to provide the requisite oxidation state of the final product. 2) due to a lack of stereospecificity, the desired β-C-arylglucoside is formed along with the undesired a-C-arylglucoside stereoisomer (this has been partially addressed by the use of hindered trialkylsilane reducing agents (see Tetrahedron: Asymmetry 2003, 14, 3243-3247) or by conversion of the hemiketal to a methyl ketal prior to reduction (see J. Org. Chem. 2007, 72, 9746-9749 and U.S. Patent 7,375,213)).

[0009] The metalated glucal method: U.S. Patent 7,847,074 discloses preparation of SGLT2 inhibitors that involves the coupling of a hydroxy-protected glucal that is metalated at CI with an aryl halide in the presence of a transition metal catalyst. Following the coupling step, the requisite formal addition of water to the C-arylglucal double bond to provide the desired C-aryl glucoside is effected using i) hydroboration and oxidation, or ii) epoxidation and reduction, or iii) dihydroxylation and reduction. In each case, the metalated glucal method represents poor redox economy because oxidation and reduction reactions must be conducted to establish the requisite oxidation states of the individual CI and C2 carbon atoms.

[0010] U.S. Pat. Appl. 2005/0233988 discloses the utilization of a Suzuki reaction between a CI -boronic acid or boronic ester substituted hydroxy-protected glucal and an aryl halide in the presence of a palladium catalyst. The resulting 1- C-arylglucal is then formally hydrated to provide the desired 1- C-aryl glucoside skeleton by use of a reduction step followed by an oxidation step. The synthesis of the boronic acid and its subsequent Suzuki reaction, reduction and oxidation, together, comprise a relatively long synthetic approach to C-arylglucosides and exhibits poor redox economy. Moreover, the coupling catalyst comprises palladium which is toxic and therefore should be controlled to very low levels in the drug substance.

[0011] The glucal epoxide method: U.S. Patent 7,847,074 discloses a method that utilizes an organometallic (derived from the requisite aglycone moiety) addition to an electrophilic epoxide located at C1-C2 of a hydroxy-protected glucose ring to furnish intermediates useful for SGLT2 inhibitor synthesis. The epoxide intermediate is prepared by the oxidation of a hydroxy- protected glucal and is not particularly stable. In Tetrahedron 2002, 58, 1997-2009 it was taught that organometallic additions to a tri-6>-benzyl protected glucal-derived epoxide can provide either the a-C-arylglucoside, mixtures of the a- and β-C-arylglucoside or the β-C-arylglucoside by selection of the appropriate counterion of the carbanionic aryl nucleophile (i.e., the

organometallic reagent). For example, carbanionic aryl groups countered with copper (i.e., cuprate reagents) or zinc (i.e., organozinc reagents) ions provide the β-C-arylglucoside, magnesium ions provide the a- and β-C-arylglucosides, and aluminum (i.e., organoaluminum reagents) ions provide the a-C-arylglucoside.

 

or Zn[0012] The glycosyl leaving group substitution method: U.S. Patent 7,847,074, also disclosed a method comprising the substitution of a leaving group located at CI of a hydroxy-protected glucosyl species, such as a glycosyl halide, with a metalated aryl compound to prepare SGLT2 inhibitors. U.S. Pat. Appl. 2011/0087017 disclosed a similar method to prepare the SGLT2 inhibitor canagliflozin and preferably diarylzinc complexes are used as nucleophiles along with tetra- >-pivaloyl protected glucosylbromide.

Glucose Glucosyl bromide β-anomer

[0013] Methodology for alkynylation of 1,6-anhydroglycosides reported in Helv. Chim. Acta. 1995, 78, 242-264 describes the preparation of l,4-dideoxy-l,4-diethynyl^-D-glucopyranoses (a. La., glucopyranosyl acetylenes), that are useful for preparing but-l,3-diyne-l,4-diyl linked polysaccharides, by the ethynylating opening (alkynylation) of partially protected 4-deoxy-4-C- ethynyl-l,6-anhydroglucopyranoses. The synthesis of β-C-arylglucosides, such as could be useful as precursors for SLGT2 inhibitors, was not disclosed. The ethynylation reaction was reported to proceed with retention of configuration at the anomeric center and was rationalized (see Helv. Chim. Acta 2002, 85, 2235-2257) by the C3-hydroxyl of the 1,6- anhydroglucopyranose being deprotonated to form a C3-0-aluminium species, that coordinated with the C6-oxygen allowing delivery of the ethyne group to the β-face of the an oxycarbenium cation derivative of the glucopyranose. Three molar equivalents of the ethynylaluminium reagent was used per 1 molar equivalent of the 1,6-anhydroglucopyranose. The

ethynylaluminium reagent was prepared by the reaction of equimolar (i.e., 1:1) amounts of aluminum chloride and an ethynyllithium reagent that itself was formed by the reaction of an acetylene compound with butyllithium. This retentive ethynylating opening method was also applied (see Helv. Chim. Acta. 1998, 81, 2157-2189) to 2,4-di-<9-triethylsilyl- 1,6- anhydroglucopyranose to provide l-deoxy-l-C-ethynyl- -D-glucopyranose. In this example, 4 molar equivalents of the ethynylaluminium reagent was used per 1 molar equivalent of the 1,6- anhydroglucopyranose. The ethynylaluminium regent was prepared by the reaction of equimolar (i.e., 1: 1) amounts of aluminum chloride and an ethynyl lithium reagent that itself was formed by reaction of an acetylene compound with butyllithium.

[0014] It can be seen from the peer-reviewed and patent literature that the conventional methods that can be used to provide C-arylglucosides possess several disadvantages. These include (1) a lack of stereoselectivity during formation of the desired anomer of the C- arylglucoside, (2) poor redox economy due to oxidation and reduction reaction steps being required to change the oxidation state of CI or of CI and C2 of the carbohydrate moiety, (3) some relatively long synthetic routes, (4) the use of toxic metals such as palladium, and/or (5) atom uneconomic protection of four free hydroxyl groups. With regard to the issue of redox economy, superfluous oxidation and reduction reactions that are inherently required to allow introduction of the aryl group into the carbohydrate moiety of the previously mention synthetic methods and the subsequent synthetic steps to establish the required oxidation state, besides adding synthetic steps to the process, are particular undesirable for manufacturing processes because reductants can be difficult and dangerous to operate on large scales due to their flammability or ability to produce flammable hydrogen gas during the reaction or during workup, and because oxidants are often corrosive and require specialized handling operations (see Anderson, N. G. Practical Process Research & Development, 1st Ed.; Academic Press, 2000 (ISBN-10: 0120594757); pg 38 for discussions on this issue).

[0015] In view of the above, there remains a need for a shorter, more efficient and

stereoselective, redox economic process for the preparation of β-C-arylglucosides. A new process should be applicable to the industrial manufacture of SGLT2 inhibitors and their prodrugs,

EXAMPLE 22 – Synthesis of 2,4-di-0-feri-butyldiphenylsUyl-l-C-(3-((5-(4- fluorophenyl)thiophen-2-yl)methyl)-4-methylphenyl)- -D-glucopyranoside (2,4-di-6>-TBDPS- canagliflozin; (IVi”))

 

[0227] 2-(5-Bromo-2-methylbenzyl)-5-(4-fluorophenyl)thiophene (1.5 g, 4.15 mmol) and magnesium powder (0.33 g, 13.7 mmol) were placed in a suitable reactor, followed by THF (9 mL) and 1,2-dibromoethane (95 μί). The mixture was heated to reflux. After the reaction was initiated, a solution of 2-(5-bromo-2-methylbenzyl)-5-(4-fluorophenyl)thiophene (2.5 g, 6.92 mmol) in THF (15mL) was added dropwise. The mixture was stirred for another 2 hours under reflux, and was then cooled to ambient temperature and titrated to determine the concentration. The thus prepared 3-[[5-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-thienyl]methyl]-4-methylphenyl magnesium bromide (0.29 M in THF, 17 mL, 5.0 mmol) and A1C13 (0.5 M in THF, 4.0 mL, 2.0 mmol) were mixed at ambient temperature to give a black solution, which was stirred at ambient temperature for 1 hour. To a solution of l ,6-anhydro-2,4-di-6>-ieri-butyldiphenylsilyl- -D-glucopyranose (0.64 g, 1.0 mmol) in PhOMe (3.0 mL) at ambient temperature was added rc-BuLi (0.4 mL, 1.0 mmol, 2.5 M solution in Bu20). After stirring for about 5 min the solution was then added into the above prepared aluminum mixture via syringe, followed by additional PhOMe (1.0 mL) to rinse the flask. The mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure (50 torr) at 60 °C (external bath temperature) to remove low-boiling point ethereal solvents, and PhOMe (6 mL) was then added. The remaining mixture was heated at 150 °C (external bath temperature) for 5 hours at which time HPLC assay analysis indicated a 68% yield of 2,4-di-6>-ieri-butyldiphenylsilyl-l-C-(3-((5- (4-fluorophenyl)thiophen-2-yl)methyl)-4-methylphenyl)- -D-glucopyranoside. After cooling to ambient temperature, the reaction was treated with 10% aqueous NaOH (1 mL), THF (10 mL) and diatomaceous earth at ambient temperature, then the mixture was filtered and the filter cake was washed with THF. The combined filtrates were concentrated and the crude product was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluting with 1 :20 MTBE/rc-heptane) to give the product 2,4-di-6>-ieri-butyldiphenylsilyl-l-C-(3-((5-(4-fluorophenyl)thiophen-2-yl)methyl)-4- methylphenyl)- -D-glucopyranoside (0.51 g, 56%) as a white powder.
