PROCEDURE FOR ENANTIOSELECTIVE PREPARATION OF PROFENOS AND FENIDATES
Field of the Invention
The present invention is generally framed in the pharmaceutical sector, and in particular refers to a method for the synthesis of anti-inflammatory drugs, analgesics and drugs indicated for the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
State of the art
Profenos, such as ibuprofen, and fenidates, are widely marketed drugs. However, although only one of the enantiomeric forms is active, some of the profenos such as ibuprofen are marketed as a mixture of the two enantiomers, in other cases only the active enantiomer is marketed. In those cases where the mixture is marketed it is because the enantiomer that is not active is not toxic and because there are no effective industrial enantioselective synthesis. For example, it is known that the d-threo enantiomer of dexmethyl fenidate is more active than the l-threo enantiomer (Pharmacol. Exp. Ther. 1970, 173, 158-165).
There are published enantioselective synthesis of prophenes (Tetrahedron: Asymmetry 1992, 3, 163-192; Tetrahedron Letters 1989, 30, 2825-2828; J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1989, 111, 7650-7651; Synlett 1992, 48-50 ). However, these syntheses have the limitation of being a synthesis that employs sophisticated reagents, which makes it difficult to implement them at the industrial level.
A common way used by the industry for the preparation of drugs in an enantiomeric form is to prepare it as a racemate and then carry out a resolution. For example, dexmethylphenidate (focalin) is prepared by resolution (Int. J. Res. Pharm. L. Sci. 2014, 4, 1066-1069.). However, the resolution has the limitation that half of the product is lost.
Jin-Mo Ku, et al. Asymmetric synthesis of a, p-epoxysulfones via phase-transfer catalytic Darzens reaction. Tetrahedron 63 (2007) 8099-8103, describes the use of phase transfer catalysts, PTC (Phase Transfer Catalysis) to prepare epoxysulfones enantioselectively. However, by the procedure described in this document, only a particular type of epoxysulfones are obtained, with an enantioselectivity and chemical yield

low.
There is therefore a need to provide a process for the preparation of prophenes and phenanthites in an enantioselective manner at the industrial level, which is simple and that solves the problems described in the prior art.
Brief Description of the Invention
The present invention solves the problems described in the state of the art since it provides a simple process for the enantioselective synthesis of prophenes and phenodates, by means of chemical reactions based on the reductive opening of optically active epoxysulfones. The process consists of a first reaction of enantioselective synthesis of epoxysulfones using chiral catalysts of the PTC type (phase transfer catalyst (Phase Transfer Catalysis) and a second stage of transformation of the epoxysulfones into prophenes or phenodates, depending on the epoxysulfone. On the other hand, when small amounts of PTC type catalysts are used, no toxic waste is generated and a final product is obtained without traces of toxic metal contaminants, which can be used in the pharmaceutical industry.
Thus, in a first aspect, the present invention relates to a process for the enantioselective preparation of prophenes and phenylates (hereinafter, process of the present invention) comprising the following steps:
a) Enantioselective synthesis of an epoxysulfone of general formula (I) and / or isomeric forms thereof, by reacting a ketone of general formula (II) and a sulfone of general formula (III), in the presence of a PTC catalyst and a base:

Scheme I
For this, a solution of chloromethyl phenyl sulfone (2 mmol) in diethyl ether (6 mL) was treated at room temperature, with the corresponding acetophenone (2.4 mmol), the N- (4-trifluoromethylbenzyl) quininium bromide phase transfer catalyst (0.2 mmol) and finally with potassium hydroxide (7.8 mmol). The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 16 hours. After this time, the reaction mixture was filtered through celite washing with ethyl acetate, the filtrate was concentrated on the rotary evaporator and the resulting residue was purified by chromatography using hexane-ethyl acetate mixtures.
To a suspension of lithium aluminum hydride (0.63 mmol) in freshly distilled tetrahydrofuran (3 mL) under an inert atmosphere of nitrogen and cooled with an ice bath was added a solution of the epoxysulfone obtained above (0.21 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (1 mL) . The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 16 hours. After this time, ethyl acetate (1 mL) was added and stirred for 15 minutes. Then, ethyl acetate (6 mL) and a 0.1M solution of HCl (12 mL) was added and poured into an extraction funnel. The aqueous phase was extracted with ethyl acetate (3 x 15 mL), the organic extracts were combined, dried (MgSO4) and concentrated on the rotary evaporator. The resulting oily residue was purified by chromatography with hexane / ethyl acetate.
To a solution of the alcohol (0.4 mmol) in acetonitrile (3 mL) was added a solution of sodium chlorite (1.6 mmol) in water (0.8 mL), then 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy (0.016 mmol), phosphate buffer (0.67 M, 3 mL) and finally a solution of sodium hypochlorite (5.25%, 21 mL) diluted with water (0.4 mL). The reaction was monitored by thin layer chromatography and after completion it was cooled in an ice bath and water (6 mL), a saturated solution of sodium bicarbonate to pH 8 and sodium sulphite (2.8 mmol) was added. After stirring the mixture for half an hour, ethyl acetate was added and stirred an additional fifteen minutes. Then, the reaction mixture was poured into an extraction funnel and the organic phase

was discarded, then the aqueous phase was cooled in an ice bath, brought to pH 2 and then poured into an extraction funnel where it was extracted with ethyl acetate (2 x 3 mL), the organic extracts were combined, dried (sodium sulfate), was filtered and concentrated on the rotary evaporator to give rise to the corresponding prophene or fenidate.
Example 2: Synthesis of Phenidates
The phenyl pyridinyl ketone was transformed into the corresponding epoxysulfone as a mixture of diastereoisomers which at the same time are a mixture of enantiomers enriched in one of the two possible enantiomers. The epoxysulfone mixture was subjected to hydrogenation under high pressure to give the corresponding piperidine alcohol which was then converted to the oxidation phenylate, as shown in Scheme II:

Step 1 and 3 follow the same procedure as steps 1 and 3 above for the synthesis of profane.
To a suspension of the Pt / C catalyst (20 mg) in acetic acid (2 mL) was added a solution of the epoxysulfone (2 mmol) in acetic acid (6 mL) at room temperature. The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 18 hours under hydrogen atmosphere. After this time, the reaction mixture was treated with a saturated sodium bicarbonate solution with caution and then brought to pH 9 with a 2M aqueous soda solution. Finally it was poured into an extraction funnel where it was extracted with ethyl acetate (2 x 3 mL), the organic extracts were washed with an aqueous solution of 1M hydrochloric acid and then with brine, then dried (sodium sulfate), dried. filtered and concentrated on the rotary evaporator to give rise to the corresponding alcohol.
