LBX192, also known as NVP-LBX192, is a Liver Targeted Glucokinase Activator. LBX192 activated the GK enzyme in vitro at low nM concentrations and significantly reduced glucose levels during an oral glucose tolerance test in normal as well as diabetic mice. A GK activator has the promise of potentially affecting both the beta-cell of the pancreas, by improving glucose sensitive insulin secretion, as well as the liver, by reducing uncontrolled glucose output and restoring post prandial glucose uptake and storage as glycogen.

Glucokinase (GK) activators are currently under investigation by a number of pharmaceutical companies with only a few reaching clinical evaluation. A GK activator has the promise of potentially affecting both the beta-cell of the pancreas, by improving glucose sensitive insulin secretion, as well as the liver, by reducing uncontrolled glucose output and restoring post prandial glucose uptake and storage as glycogen. We will describe our efforts to generate liver selective GK activators which culminated in the discovery of NVP-LBX192 (3-Cyclopentyl-N-(5-methoxy-thiazolo[5,4-b]pyridin-2-yl)-2-[4-(4-methyl-piperazine-1-sulfonyl)-phenyl]-propionamide). This compound activated the GK enzyme in vitro at low nM concentrations and significantly reduced glucose levels during an oral glucose tolerance test in normal as well as diabetic mice.

Abstract Image

Type 2 diabetes is a polygenic disease which afflicts nearly 200 million people worldwide and is expected to increase to near epidemic levels over the next 10−15 years. Glucokinase (GK) activators are currently under investigation by a number of pharmaceutical companies with only a few reaching early clinical evaluation. A GK activator has the promise of potentially affecting both the β-cells of the pancreas, by improving glucose sensitive insulin secretion, as well as the liver, by reducing uncontrolled glucose output and restoring post-prandial glucose uptake and storage as glycogen. Herein, we report our efforts on a sulfonamide chemotype with the aim to generate liver selective GK activators which culminated in the discovery of 3-cyclopentyl-N-(5-methoxy-thiazolo[5,4-b]pyridin-2-yl)-2-[4-(4-methyl-piperazine-1-sulfonyl)-phenyl]-propionamide (17c). This compound activated the GK enzyme (αK_a = 39 nM) in vitro at low nanomolar concentrations and significantly reduced glucose levels during an oral glucose tolerance test in normal mice.

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.

GEMIGLIPTIN

1-[2(S)-Amino-4-[2,4-bis(trifluoromethyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropyrido[3,4-d]pyrimidin-7-yl]-4-oxobutyl]-5,5-difluoropiperidin-2-one

PHASE 3, DPP-IV inhibitor, Lg Life Sciences Ltd.

CAS 911637-19-9

Mol. Formula: C18H19F8N5O2

Mol. Weight:489.36

Gemigliptin (rINN), previously identified as LC15-0444, is an oral anti-hyperglycemic agent (anti-diabetic drug) of the new dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor class of drugs.^[1] It is well known that glucose lowering effects of DPP-4 inhibitors are mainly mediated by GLP-1 and gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) incretin hormones which are inactivated by DPP-4.

Gemigliptin was initially developed solely by LG Life Sciences. In 2010, Double-Crane Pharmaceutical Co. (DCPC) joined with LGLS to co-develop the final compound and collaborate on the marketing of the drug in China. LGLS also announced on Nov., 2010 that NOBEL Ilac has been granted rights to develop and commercialize gemigliptin in Turkey.

Gemigliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase IV (CD26; DPP-IV; DP-IV) inhibitor, is currently undergoing phase III clinical trials at LG Life Sciences as an oral treatment for type II diabetes. The company is also testing the compound in phase II/III clinical studies for the treatment of patients with cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury.

DPP IV inhibitors have glucose-lowering effects mediated by GLP-1 incretin hormone which is inactivated by DPP IV. In 2010, gemigliptin was licensed to Beijing Double-Crane Pharmaceutical by LG Life Sciences for distribution and supply in China for the treatment of type 2 diabetes.

A New Drug Application (NDA) for gemigliptin in the treatment of type 2 diabetes was submitted to the Korea Food & Drug Administration (KFDA) in July 2011. Then on June 27, 2012, the KFDA has approved the manufacture and distribution of LG Life Sciences’ diabetes treatment, Zemiglo, the main substance of which is gemigliptin. Clinical trials for evaluating the safety and efficacy of gemigliptin in combination with metformin have been completed.

…………

Efficient synthesis of gemigliptin, a potent and selective DPP-4 inhibitor for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus, has been developed. Gemigliptin were prepared from two key API starting materials, DP18 and DP57, in 75~80% yield and >99% purity over three steps under the GMP control: coupling, deprotection of N-Boc group, and final crystallization with L-tartaric acid. All steps were conducted in the same solvent system and the intermediates were isolated by simple filtration without distillation of solvent. The established process was validated obviously through the three consecutive batches for a commercial production.

History

The NDA for gemigliptin was submitted to KFDA in July, 2011 and it was approved on June 27, 2012. By the end of 2012, gemigliptin will be marketed in Korea as Zemiglo which is the fifth new DPP-4 inhibitor diabetes treatment in the world.

Mechanism of action

DPP-4 is a serine protease located on the cell surfaces throughout the body. In plasma, DPP-4 enzyme rapidly inactivates incretins including GLP-1 and GIP which are produced in the intestine depending on the blood glucose level and contribute to the physiological regulation of glucose homeostatis. Active GLP-1 and GIP increase the production and release of insulin by pancreatinc beta cells. GLP-1 also reduces the scretion of glucacon by pancreatic alpha cells, thereby resulting in a decreased hepatic glucose production. However these incretins are rapidly cleaved by DPP-4 and their effects last only for a few minutes. DPP-4 inhibitors block the cleavage of the gliptins and thus lead to an increasee insulin level and a reduced glucagon level in a glucose-dependent way. This results in a decrease of fasting and postprandial glycemia, as well as HbA1c levels.^[2]

Preclinical studies

Gemigliptin is a competitive, reversible DPP-4 inhibitor (IC50 = 16 nM) with excellent selectivity over other critical human proteases such as DPP-2, DPP-8, DPP-9, elastase,trypsin, urokinase and cathepsin G. Gemigliptin was rapidly absorbed after single oral dosing and the compound was eliminated with a half-life of 3.6 h, 5.2 h, and 5.4 h in the rat, dog, and monkey, respectively.

The bioavailability of gemigliptin in the rat, dog, and monkey was species-dependent with the values of 94%, 73%, and 26%, respectively. Following the oral administration of gemigliptin in the rat, dog and monkey, about 80% inhibition of plasma DPP-4 activity were observed at the plasma levels of 18 nM, 14 nM and 4 nM, respectively.

In the diet-induced obese (DIO) mice, gemigliptin reduced glucose excursion during OGTT in a dose dependent manner with the minimum effective dose of 0.3 mg/kg and enhanced glucose-stimulated plasma GLP-1 increase in a dose dependent manner reaching the maximum effect at the dose of 1 mg/kg.

Following 4 week oral repeat dosing in the DIO mice, gemigliptin reduced significantly HbA1c with the minimum effective dose of 3 mg/kg. In the beagle dog, gemigliptin significantly enhanced active GLP-1, decreased glucagon, and reduced glucose excursion during OGTT following a single dosing.

Studies on animals suggest its positive effect on hepatic and renal fibrosis .^[3]^[4] Data on human patients are still inconclusive .^[5]

Clinical studies

The dose-range finding phase 2 study was performed and 145 patients (91men and 54 women) with type 2 diabetes mellitus were enrolled. All three doses (50,100 and 200 mg groups) of gemigliptin significantly reduced the HbA_1c from baseline compared to the placebo group without a significant difference between the doses.

Subjects with a higher baseline HbA_1c (≥8.5%) had a greater reduction in HbA_1c. Insulin secretory function, as assessed using homeostasis model assessment-beta cell, C-peptide and the insulinogenic index, improved significantly with gemigliptin treatment. Insulin sensitivity, as assessed using homeostasis model assessment-insulin resistance, also improved significantly after 12 weeks of treatment.

The 50 and 200 mg groups had significantly reduced total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels at 12 weeks compared to the placebo group.

The incidences of adverse events were similar in all study subjects. Gemigliptin monotherapy (50 mg for 12 weeks) improved the HbA_1c, FPG level, oral glucose tolerance testresults, β-cell function and insulin sensitivity measures, and was well tolerated in subjects with type 2 diabetes.

Results of Phase 3 clinical trials which have been finished recently will be updated near future.

For the title compound resulting from the above, its enantiomeric isomers―i.e. S-form and R-form―were measured by HPLC (high-performance liquid chromatography), and an excess of the enantiomeric isomers (S vs. R form) (enantiomeric excess; ee) was then calculated as being ee > 99%. On the other hand, in case of the Comparative Example prepared according to the prior method based on WO 06/104356, as described below, the excess (ee) of enantiomeric isomers (S vs. R form) was 80%.

COMPARATIVE EXAMPLE 1-1: Synthesis of methyl 5-amino-4,4-difluoro- pentanoate HCl

To 10.0 g of the compound obtained from Example 1 was added 40 ml of anhydrous ammonia solution (7 M solution in methanol), and the mixture was stirred for 3 hours. The reaction solution was distilled and 30 ml of hydrochloric acid solution saturated with methanol was added dropwise thereto. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature and then distilled to obtain 7.2 g of the title compound as a white solid.

To the solution of the compound (1.93 g), as obtained from the above Example 4, dissolved in dichloromethane (20.0 g) and H₂O (4.0 g) were added NaBr (0.8 g) and TEMPO (11 mg, 1 mol%). To this reaction solution was slowly added a solution of 5% NaOCl (11.5 g) and NaHCO₃ (1.7 g) dissolved in H₂O (12.0 g) dropwise for about 2 hours while maintaining the temperature below 5℃. Upon completion of dropwise addition, the reaction solution was stirred for 30 minutes to separate the layers. To the organic layer thus obtained was added the compound (1.6 g) obtained from the above Comparative Example 1-1. After stirring for 15 minutes at room temperature, NaBH(OAc)₃ (2.23 g) was added to the reaction solution. After stirring for about 19 hours, 10% aqueous NaHCO₃ solution (20.0 g) and 0.5 N aqueous hydrochloric acid solution (20.0 g) were added dropwise to the reaction solution to separate the layers. The organic layer thus obtained was dehydrated under anhydrous MgSO₄ to obtain 2.0 g (yield 73%) of the same title compound as Example 14, as a yellow solid. For the title compound resulting from the above, its enantiomeric isomers―i.e., S-form and R-form―were measured by HPLC (high-performance liquid chromatography), and an excess (ee) of the enantiomeric isomers (S vs. R form) was then calculated as being ee = 80%.

Economic syntheses of sitagliptin phosphate monohydrate, acknowledged as the first dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitor, have been achieved in an overall yield of 42.4% in four steps from 1-{3-(trifluoromethyl)-5,6-dihydro-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyrazin-7(8H)-yl}-4-(2,4,5-trifluorophenyl)butane-1,3-dione. The key stereoselective reduction of this process was carried out by NaBH₄/HCOOH instead of expensive and toxic catalysts or ligands.

The present invention relates to a novel method of preparing sitagliptin, and intermediates used therein. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Sitagliptin phosphate is a selective inhibitor of the second generation dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-4) and used to maintain the systemic concentration of incretin hormone at an optimum level. Sitagliptin phosphate monohydrate was approved in October 2006 by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as an adjuvant in dietetics or kinesiatrics for treatment of patients with type-2 diabetes and it is marketed in the United States and Korea under the trade name of JANUVIA™ (as a single agent).

Various methods for preparing sitagliptin and sitagliptin phosphate have been developed.

SITAGLIPTIN……………..

GREENING UP DRUGS Merck process chemists redesigned and significantly shortened the original synthesis of type 2 diabetes drug candidate sitagliptin (Januvia) to include an unprecedented efficient hydrogenation of an unprotected enamine.

MERCK was selected for the award in the greener synthetic pathways category for revising the synthesis for sitagliptin, a chiral β-amino acid derivative that is the active ingredient in Januvia, the company’s pending new treatment for type 2 diabetes. The breakthrough leading to the new synthesis was the discovery that the amino group of the key enamine intermediate doesn’t need to be protected prior to enantioselective catalytic hydrogenation of the double bond.

This development has solved a long-standing problem in the synthesis of β-amino acid derivatives, which are known for their pharmacological properties and are commonly used as chiral building blocks, noted Karl B. Hansen, a Merck process chemist involved with the synthetic effort. The outcome has been to slash the number of reaction steps in the sitagliptin synthesis from eight to three, leading to an equally dramatic reduction in the amount of chemicals and solvent needed and the amount of waste generated.

Merck’s first-generation synthesis of sitagliptin involved preparing a β-hydroxy carboxylic acid, which was converted to a protected β-lactam and then coupled to a triazole building block. Deprotecting the resulting intermediate provided the β-amino acid moiety, and sitagliptin was isolated as a phosphoric acid salt.

This synthesis involved a roundabout route involving four steps to introduce the pivotal chiral amino group of sitagliptin. The synthesis worked well to prepare more than 100 kg of the compound for clinical trials, and with modifications it was deemed to be a viable though not very green manufacturing process, Hansen pointed out. For example, the original synthesis required a number of distillations and aqueous extractions to isolate intermediates, leading to a large volume of waste to treat.

“Being environmentally friendly and economically savvy can, and does, go hand-in-hand.”

Merck process chemists recognized that a much more efficient process was possible by synthesizing the β-amino acid portion of the molecule directly from an enamine. But the protection-deprotection of the amine nitrogen with an acyl group during the hydrogenation is difficult on a large scale, and unprotected reactions generally result in lower yields and lower enantiomeric excesses, Hansen said.

Undaunted, the Merck scientists working on the revised synthesis discovered that the amino group could be efficiently introduced by an unprotected hydrogenation using a rhodium catalyst with a ferrocenyl phosphine ligand named Josiphos (C&EN, Sept. 5, 2005, page 40). Merck turned to Solvias, a Swiss company with experience in asymmetric hydrogenations that manufactures Josiphos, as a partner to help speed up the process development.

The new synthesis involves first coupling trifluorophenyl acetic acid and triazole building blocks to form a diketoamide, which in turn is converted to the enamine. This sequence is carried out without isolating intermediates. The enamine is then hydrogenated, sitagliptin is isolated and recrystallized as the phosphoric acid salt, and the rhodium Josiphos catalyst is recovered.

In sum, the revised synthesis increases the overall yield of sitagliptin by nearly 50% and reduces the amount of waste by more than 80%. A key difference is that the original synthesis produced more than 60 L of aqueous waste per kg of product, while the new synthesis completely eliminates aqueous waste. When tallied up, Merck expects these savings will prevent formation of 150,000 metric tons of solid and aqueous process waste over the lifetime of Januvia. Industry analysts speculate that regulatory approval of the drug will come by early next year and that it’s destined to become a top-selling drug.

The novel enamine hydrogenation “is arguably the most efficient means to prepare β-amino acid derivatives,” noted R. P. (Skip) Volante, Merck’s vice president of process research. The company currently is using the procedure to make several other exploratory drug candidates, he added. Overall, the redesigned synthesis of sitagliptin “is a green chemistry solution to the preparation of a challenging synthetic target and is an excellent example of a scientific innovation resulting in benefits to the environment,” Volante said.

A new synthesis of sitagliptin (MK-0431), a DPP-IV inhibitor and potential new treatment for type II diabetes, suitable for the preparation of multi-kilogram quantities is presented. The triazolopyrazine fragment of sitagliptin was prepared in 26% yield over four chemical steps using a synthetic strategy similar to the medicinal chemistry synthesis. Key process developments were made in the first step of this sequence, the addition of hydrazine to chloropyrazine, to ensure its safe operation on a large scale. The beta-amino acid fragment of sitagliptin was prepared by asymmetric reduction of the corresponding beta-ketoester followed by a two-step elaboration to an N-benzyloxy beta-lactam. Hydrolysis of the lactam followed by direct coupling to the triazolopiperazine afforded sitagliptin after cleavage of the N-benzyloxy group and salt formation. The overall yield was 52% over eight steps.

The synthesis of 1 was completed using a four-step through-process (Scheme 4). Lactam 5 or ester 13 was hydrolyzed to amino acid 2bwith LiOH¹⁸ in THF/water by either stirring at room temperature or, in the case of 13, heating to 40 °C. While the benzyloxy group of 2b could be cleaved by hydrogenation and then protected with Boc₂O to prevent side reactions during the coupling to triazole 3, the benzyloxy group of 2b was found to sufficiently protect the amino group to allow the desired amide to be formed. Thus, triazole 3 was coupled to2b at 0 °C using EDC−HCl and N-methylmorpholine (NMM) as base to afford 14in >99% assay yield. Following an aqueous workup, the organic extracts were distilled into ethanol and the solution was subjected to hydrogenation with 10% Pd on carbon. The presence of water in the hydrogenation was found to be crucial to the reaction success; anhydrous solutions of 14 hydrogenated with dry Pd on carbon proceeded only to low levels of conversion to 1, and addition of water to these reductions resulted in restored performance of the catalyst. Following hydrogenation, the catalyst was removed by filtration to provide an ethanol solution of 1. Sitagliptin was isolated in >99.5% purity as its anhydrous phosphoric acid salt by crystallizing from aqueous ethanol.

MORE INFO………

Sitagliptin phosphate monohydrate, a dipeptidyl-peptidase IV inhibitor, is marketed by Merck & Co. for the once-daily oral treatment of type 2 diabetes. The product was first launched in Mexico followed by commercialization in the U.S. The compound has also been filed for approval in the U.S. as adjunct to diet and exercise and in combination with other therapies to improve glycemic control in the treatment of diabetes. In 2007, the product was approved by the European Medicines Evaluation Agency (EMEA) and is currently available in the U.K., Germany and Spain. In 2009, sitagliptin phosphate monohydrate was approved and launched in Japan. The product is also available in Japan for the treatment of type 2 diabetes in combination with alpha-glucosidase inhibitors and in combination therapy with insulin. In 2012, the company filed for approval in Japan for the treatment of type 2 diabetes in patients with severe renal dysfunction, and in 2013 obtained the approval.

Sitagliptin phosphate monohydrate boasts a much lower risk of hypoglycemia than currently available insulin-inducing products due to its novel mechanism of action. MSD KK (formed in 2010 following the merger of Banyu and Schering-Plough KK) and Ono are developing the drug candidate in Japan. In 2008, the compound was licensed to Almirall by Merck Sharp & Dohme for comarketing in Spain for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. In 2010, FAES obtained a comarketing and commercialization license from Merck Sharp & Dohme in Spain for the treatment of type 2 diabetes.

Januvia (sitagliptin phosphate) is an antihyperglycaemic drug containing an orally active inhibitor of the dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV) enzyme. Developed by Merck Sharp & Dohme (MSD), a UK subsidiary of Merck & Co, sitagliptin is used for treating type 2 diabetes mellitus. The drug has proved effective in lowering blood sugar levels of diabetes patients when taken alone or in combination with other oral diabetes medications such as metformin and thiazolidinedione.

Sitagliptin was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in October 2006 and is marketed under the brand name Januvia in the US. Sitagliptin in combination with metformin was approved by the FDA in March 2007 and is marketed as Janumet in the US. In the EU, Januvia was approved in April 2007 and Janumet was approved in July 2008.

Sitagliptin is a triazolopiperazine based inhibitor of DPP-IV, which was discovered by
Merck. It is a potent (IC50= 18 nM) and highly selective over DPP-8 (48000 nM), DPP-9
(>100000 nM) and other isozymes.[16] It enhances the pancreatic β-cell functions, fasting and
post-prandial glycemic control in type 2 diabetic patients. In the crystal structure with DPP-IV,
unlike other substrate-based DPP-IV inhibitors, the binding orientation of the amide carbonyl of
sitagliptin is reversed, i.e. the aromatic trifluorophenyl moiety occupies S1 pocket and the β-
amino amide moiety fits into S2 pockets. The amino group forms a salt bridge and hydrogen
bonding interactions with Glu205 and Glu206, and Tyr662, respectively.The triazolopiperazinemoiety occupies the S2 extended pocket and stacks against Phe357. The exhibited binding
interactions of the trifluoromethyl group with the Arg358 and Ser209 are responsible for its high
selectivity profile. The presence of the trifluoromethyl group in the triazole ring also improves
the oral bioavailability in animal models. Sitagliptin inhibited the plasma DPP-IV up to 80% and
47% at 2 and 24 h, respectively, after a single dose of 25.0 mg in a dose-dependent manner. In a
24-week study, sitagliptin significantly decreased fasting glucose levels and HbA1c levels
(0.8%) at doses of 100 mg q.d. Thus, sitagliptin is well tolerated and body weight neutral. It is
the first DPP-IV inhibitor in the class approved by USFDA in 2006 and is used as either a
monotherapy or in combination with metformin

In the first synthetic approach, the synthesis of sitagliptin was started with the reaction of a Schollkopf reagent 6 with 2,4,5-trifluorobenzyl bromide to afford the compound 7, which was converted to compound 9 via hydrolysis of ester 8. The resulting Boc-protected amino acid 9 was converted to diazoketone 11 through mix anhydride protocol by using diazomethane. The intermediate 11 was converted to desired β-amino acid 12 by sonication in the presence of silver benzoate.[21] The sitagliptin (14) was synthesized by coupling of β-amino acid 12 with triazolopiperazine intermediate 5 followed by Boc deprotection of amino group of 13, and its corresponding hemi fumarate salt was then prepared (Scheme 1).[16]

SYN1

The second approach for synthesis of sitagliptinwas started from asymmetric reduction of β-ketoester 15 using the (S)-BinapRuCl2 complex with a catalytic amount of HBr in methanol followed by hydrolysis afforded the β-hydroxy acid 16. Lactam 17 was synthesized by coupling of 16 with BnONH2 •HCl using N-(3- dimethylaminopropyl)-N-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC), followed by cyclization reaction with diisopropyl azodicarboxylate (DIAD) and PPh3 . [22] Treatment of a catalytic amount of 0.1% NaOH with lactam 17 hydrolyzed and directly afforded the β-amino acid 18. This wascoupled withtriazolopiperazine 5 using EDC•HCl and N-methylmorpholine to provide the N-benzyloxy protected compound 19, which after hydrogenation using Pd/C and by consequent treatment with phosphoric acid provided the phosphate salt of sitagliptin (14) (Scheme 2).

SYN2

The third approach towards the synthesis of sitagliptin is outlined in scheme 3. Meldrum adduct 22 (Hunig’s base salt) was synthesized from trifluorophenylacetic acid 20 by the formation of a mixed anhydride with pivaloyl chloride in the presence of Meldrum’s acid 21, DIPEA and catalytic amount of dimethylamino pyridine (DMAP) in acetonitrile. Treatment of 22 with TFA resulted compound 23. β-keto amide 24 was formed on reaction of 23 with triazolopiperazine 5. β-keto amide 24 on treatment with ammonium acetate in methanol formed a key intermediate, dehydrositagliptin 25 (enamine amide). This intermediate contains the entire structure of sitagliptin 14 except two hydrogen atoms. Thus, sitagliptin 14 was synthesized by enantioselective hydrogenation of dehydrositagliptin 25 in the presence of [Rh(COD)2 OTf] 12,13 and t Bu JOSIPHOS in excellent yield with 95% ee.[23,24]

Formula 1

Korea Patent Publication No. 2008-0094604 the call to the scheme, as indicated by A Ⅰ) of formula (II) beta-compound of formula 3 is already substituted heterocyclic compound having 1-hydroxy-benzotriazole group (HOBT) 1-ethyl-3- (3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide (EDC) and reacting with a tertiary amine to prepare a compound of formula (4) connected by peptide bonds; Ⅱ) beta comprises the step of reacting under acidic conditions a compound of the formula (4) – a method of manufacturing the heterocyclic compounds of the formula I having an amino group is disclosed.

– Scheme A]

(Wherein, PG is a protecting group.)

In this case, the beta of the formula (2) of Scheme A – a compound having an amino group is prepared in addition to the DPP-IV inhibitor International Publication represented by Formula 1 WO03 / 000181, WO03 / 004498, WO03 / 082817, WO04 / 007468, WO04 / 032836, WO05 / 011581, WO06 / 097175, WO07 / 077508, WO07 / 063928, WO08 / 028662 WO08 / it may be used for the production of different DPP-IV inhibitors according 087,560 and can be prepared in a number of ways.

To, the compound of Formula 2 is an example as shown in Scheme J. Med.Chem. 2005; 141, and Synthesis 1997; it can be produced by the known method described in 873.

Specifically, (2S) – (+) – 2,5- dihydro-3,6-dimethoxy-2-isopropyl-pyrazine 2,4,5-trifluoro-react with benzyl bromide and acid treatment, and then the amine an ester compound obtained by the protection reaction. Ester compounds are hydrolyzed to re-3- (2,4,5-trifluoro-phenyl) -2-amino-propionic acid tert such as isobutyl chloroformate, triethylamine or diisopropylethylamine to give the amine, and then using diazomethane to form a diazo ketone, and then may be prepared by reaction with silver benzoate. However, the reaction can be performed at low temperature (-78 ℃) or high alpha-amino acid to purchase and use, and may have a risk of problems such as the need to use large diazomethane.

To a different process for preparing a compound of Formula 2 as shown in scheme Tetrahedron: Asymmetry 2006; It is known in 2622; 205 or similarly Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters 2007.

That is, a 1,1′-carbonyl-2,4,5 which the phenyl trifluoroacetic acid activated using the following imidazole mono-methyl words potassium carbonate is reacted with the beta-keto ester compound is prepared. This produced an enamine ester using ammonium acetate and ammonium solution, the ester compound chloro (1,5-cyclooctadiene) rhodium (I) dimer using a chiral ferrocenyl ligands I the reaction of the high-pressure hydrogen with a chiral primary amine with a beta-amino ester compound after production and can lead to hydrolysis to prepare a compound of formula (2). However, use of expensive metal catalyst has a problem that must be performed in high pressure hydrogenation.

The method for preparing a compound of Formula 2 is disclosed in International Publication No. WO 04/87650.

Specifically, 2,4,5-fluorophenyl reagent is oxalyl chloride, the acid activated acid with 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione, and after the reaction of methanol and the resulting material at reflux to prepare a corresponding compound. With a selective reducing reagents which enantiomers (S) -BINAP-RuCl ₂ and hydrogen through a reaction (S) – producing a compound having coordinated to each other, it again after the decomposition, and the singer O- benzyl hydroxyl amine and the coupling reaction and the intermediate is prepared. To do this, the resulting intermediate tree azodicarboxylate and diisopropyl azodicarboxylate presence ring condensation reaction, treated with an aqueous solution of lithium hydroxide to (R) – while having the formula (II) coordinated to the amine group protected with a benzyl-O- the compound can be produced. However, the method has a problem as a whole to be prepared by the reaction yield to be low and a long processing time to perform the reaction.

Thus, the conventional known method for producing a compound of the general formula (2) has the disadvantage of using expensive reagents, or not suitable for commercial mass-production method by a long synthesis time yield is also low.

In addition, the compound represented by General Formula (3), as described in Korea Patent Publication No. 2008-0094604 call, can be prepared by way of reaction schemes.

Specifically, the starting material D- serine methyl ester is substituted by a hydroxy group when reflux again substituted by trityl chloride as methoxy groups converted to the aziridine compound.

to be issued by the CFDA will be approved and registered under the Group’s name.

Evogliptin is a patented new molecular entity in the United States and other international markets.

Evogliptin tartrate tablets is being concurrently developed by Dong-A Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd.

for the Korean market. Based on information released from a multi-centre, phase II, randomised,

double-blind, placebo-controlled, therapeutic exploratory clinical trial conducted in Korea by

Dong-A Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. to investigate the efficacy and safety of evogliptin, evogliptin

was proven to be effective in significantly lowering blood glucose levels in patients with type

2 diabetes. Data also show that the body weights of patients remain stable over the treatment

period. In addition, evogliptin was proven to be safe and well tolerated with no severe adverse

drug reactions observed during those phase II clinical trials. The Company believes evogliptin

tartrate tablets will help reduce the burden of patients with moderate-to-severe renal impairment

as pharmacokinetic study in animal model and healthy human volunteers showed low renal

elimination.

According to the statistics of IMS Health Incorporated, the market size of products for the

treatment of diabetes in China in 2013 was approximately RMB7.8 billion, and grew at a

compound annual growth rate of 23.4% from 2011 to 2013.

Dong-A ST has licensed its new diabetes drug Evogliptin to 17 Latin American countries including Mexico, Venezuela, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, the Dominican Republic, and Uruguay, Jung Jae-wook, Dong-A ST’s PR manager, told Business Korea.

Dong-A ST and Eurofarma, a Brazilian pharmaceutical company, concluded the licensing contract at Dong-A ST’s headquarters on April 13 in Seoul.

Eurofarma will be responsible for Evogliptin’s product development and sales in the 17 Latin American countries, Dong-A ST said. Dong-A ST will receive royalties from Eurofarma, and export the raw material of the medicine.

Dong-A ST has been developing Evogliptin with the support of the Ministry of Health & Welfare of South Korea as an innovative new medicine research project since May 2008. Evogliptin is a DPP-4 remedy based on the inhibition mechanism which is “excellent” at reducing blood sugar, whilst “less likely” to cause weight increases and hypoglycemia, the company said.

Park Chan-il, president of Dong-A ST, said that Dong-A ST will pursue further out-licensing “over the globe,” through continuous investment in research and development.

Maurizio Billi, Eurofarma’s president, wished to expand both companies’ partnership in the innovative new remedy development sector, according to Dong-A ST.

Last July, Dong-A ST and Eurofarma concluded a contract out-licensing Evogliptin to Brazil itself, the company said.

Latest Stage of Development	Phase II
Standard Indication	Diabetes
Indication Details	Treat Type II diabetes

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a chronic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia coupled with a gradual decline in insulin sensitivity and insulin secretion. The incretin hormone glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), which is released post-prandially from the L-cells of the intestine, stimulates the release of insulin from pancreatic β-cells. However, GLP-1 is rapidly degraded in vivo by peptidases, including dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-4), which is a widely distributed serine protease that specifically cleaves N-terminal dipeptides from polypeptides with proline or alanine at the penultimate position.

In vivo administration of DPP-4 inhibitors to human subjects results in higher circulating concentrations of endogenous GLP-1 and subsequent decrease in plasma glucose. Long term treatment with a DPP-4 inhibitor leads to a reduction in circulating HbA1c (glycosylated hemoglobin). DPP-4 inhibition also offers the potential to improve the insulin producing function of the pancreas through either β-cell preservation or regeneration. Therefore, DPP-4 inhibition has emerged as a promising new treatment of Type 2 diabetes

PF-734200 is a potent, selective, orally active dipeptidyl peptidase IV inhibitor. It had been in phase II clinical development at Pfizer for the treatment of type 2 diabetes; however, in 2010 the company discontinued these trials. In 2012, the product was licensed to SatRx, a spin-off of the ChemRar High Tech Center, by Pfizer on an exclusive worldwide basis (with the exception of China) for the development and commercialization as monotherapy or in combination with other therapies for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. SatRx is conducting phase II clinical trials for the treatment of type 2 diabetes.

New synthetic route to a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor
Org Process Res Dev 2012, 16(3): 409

http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/op200309z

A new synthetic route to a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4) inhibitor was developed and demonstrated on a multigram scale. This approach takes advantage of the cheap and readily available Boc-trans-4-hydroxy-l-proline methyl ester as starting material which was derivatized through an SN2 reaction. Several leaving groups were studied, and the nosylate group showed superiority over other derivatives. Formation of an amide using the most costly starting material, 3,3-difluoropyrrolidine, was performed late in the synthesis to minimize its economical impact on the overall cost of the API.

Example 113 (3.3-Difluoropyrrolidin-1-yl)-((2S,4S)-4-(4-(pyrimidin-2-yl)piperazin-1-yl)pyrrolidin-2-yl)-methanone

Step 1 – (S)-2-(3.3-Difluoro-pyrrolidine-1-carbonyl)-4-oxo-pyrrolidine-1 -carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester

3,3-Difluoro- pyrrolidine hydrochloride (4.13 kg, 1.0 equivalent) was charged to the above mixture over 10 minutes at – 10°C to 0°C. Triethylamine (4.0 liters, 1.0 equiv) was introduced slowly over 70 minutes at -10°C to 0°C. Upon completion of triethylamine addition, the mixture was stirred for 1h at 0 to 5°C. The reaction was complete by HPLC assay (-1% starting material). The reaction was quenched with water (10 volumes) at 0°C to 5 °C. The mixture was heated to 20°C to 25 °C. The layers were separated, and the organic layer was washed with 0.5 M HCI (5 volumes). The organic layer was again washed with combined 5% NaHC0₃ (2 volumes) and half saturated brine solution (1.64 M, 3 volumes). The organic solution was concentrated atmospherically to a low stirrable volume (approximately 20 liters). Ethyl acetate (12.6 volumes, 82.8 liters) was added, the solution was concentrated atmospherically to -6 volumes. The mixture was held at 60°C to 65 °C for 2 hours and cooled to room temperature over 3 hours. The mixture was held at 20°C to 25 °C for 8 hours. Heptane (8 volumes) was added, and the mixture was granulated for a minimum of 2 hours. The solid was filtered, rinsed with 2:1 heptane/ethyl acetate (1 volume), and dried in a tray dryer at 25°C to 35°C for a minimum of 12 h. Yield: 7.26 kg, 79%. HPLC purity: 99.7%. The mother liquor (86 liters) was concentrated to 12 liters under partial vacuum at 65°C to 70°C. The mixture was cooled to 60°C to 65 °C. Ethyl acetate (4.0 liters) was added slowly over 15 minutes. The mixture was cooled to 20°C to 25 °C over 2 hours and was held at that temperature for at least 2 hours. The solid was filtered and rinsed with heptane/ethyl acetate (3:1 v/v, 1.7 liters). Drying in a tray dryer for 12 hours at 35°C to 45 °C yielded 435 grams of product. HPLC purity: 96.4%.

Step 2 – (2S.4S)-2-(3.3-Dif luoro-pyrrolidine-1 -carbonyl)-4-(4-pyrimidin-2-yl-piperazin-1 -yl)-pyrrolidine-1 – carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester A reactor was charged with THF (20 volumes), 2-piperazin-1-yl-pyrimidine (2.17 kg, 1.05 equivalents) and the product from Step 1 (4.00 kg, 1.0 equivalent). The mixture was held at 20°C to 25°C until all material was dissolved over 30 minutes. Acetic acid (0.792 kg, 1.05 equivalents) as added. The mixture was stirred for 1 hour during which the reaction mixture turned to cloudy. The reaction mixture was refluxed for 30 minutes and then concentrated at 60°C to 70°C until a steady temperature of 66.9°C was observed in the overheads indicating complete removal of water from the system. More THF was added as necessary. At the end, THF was added to bring the total volume in the reactor to 15 volumes of the limit reagent. The reaction mixture was cooled to -3°C to 7°C and sampled for complete formation of imine by HPLC (using sodium triacetoxyborohydride to reduce imine). Sodium triacetoxyborohydride (5.33 kg, 2.0 equivalents) was added portion-wise to the suspension at -5°C to 15°C. The reaction mixture was heated to 20°C to 25°C and held for 12 hours. HPLC results confirmed the reaction was complete by 99.8%. Sodium bicarbonate aqueous solution (10% w/w, 10 volumes) was added. The slurry was concentrated to remove 10 volumes of THF under partial vacuum at 30°C to 60°C. Ethyl acetate (10 volumes) was added to the suspension after it cooled to 20°C to 25^CC. The organic phase was separated and the aqueous phase was checked by HPLC. It contained less than 2% of the product. The organic phase was washed with water (5 volumes), saturated brine solution (5 volumes) and concentrated to a small volume (2 volumes) under partial vacuum at 45°C to 50°C. To the slurry was added heptane (10 volumes) at 45°C to 50°C over 30 minutes. The mixture was cooled to 20°C to 25°C and granulated for 2 hours. Solid was collected by filtration, rinsed with heptane (2 volumes). Drying in a tray dryer for 12 hours at 35°C to 45°C yield 5.35 kg (91.3%) of the product. Step 3 – (3.3-Dif luoro-pyrrolidin-1 -yl)-f(2S.4S)-4-(4-pyrimidin-2-yl-piperazin-1 -yl)-pyrrolidin-2-yll- methanone Water (19 liters, 2 volumes) was charged to a reactor followed by the product from Step 2 (9.57 kg,

1.0 equivalent). To the slurry was added concentrated HCI (37 wt% in water, 19.1 liters, 2 volumes) slowly at 20°C to 30°C over 4 hours. The slurry went into solution after 12 liters of HCI was added. After the addition completion, the reaction was complete by HPLC assay. The reaction mixture was cooled to 5°C to 15°C. To the mixture was added 50% NaOH aqueous solution slowly with agitation to pH 10 to pH 11. The pH was monitored with a pH meter closely during the neutralization. The total volume of 50% NaOH added was 12.45 liters. The mixture was warmed to 20°C to 25°C and extracted with ethyl acetate twice (115 liters, 12 volumes and 57 liters, 6 volumes, respectively). The sample from aqueous layer after second extraction was analyzed by HPLC and showed only 1% of the product in that aqueous solution.

The organic layers were combined and treated with magnesium sulfate (5 kg) for 1 hour. The mixture was filtered. The filter cake was rinsed with ethyl acetate (10 liters). The filtrate was charged back to the reactor via a 0.2 micron in-line filter for speck free operation. (The following operations were performed under speck free conditions.) The solution was concentrated to 20 liters (2 volumes) under partial vacuum at 50°C to 60°C. The mixture was cooled to 20°C to 25°C over 30 minutes. Upon cooling to room temperature, crystallization occurred. The mixture was held for 30 minutes. Hexanes (20 liters, 2 volumes) was added slowly over 1 hour. The mixture was granulated for 2 hours. The solid product was collected by filtration and rinsed with hexanes/ethyl acetate (10 liters, 1 :1 v/v). The filter was blown dry with nitrogen for a minimum of 2 hours. The product was dried in a tray dryer at 44°C for 12 hours.

This approach begins with N–t-Boc-4-oxo-l-proline (1) that undergoes a mixed anhydride activation with pivaloyl chloride at 0 °C, followed by amidation with 3,3-difluoropyrrolidine to yield the intermediate 2. Reductive amination with 1-(2-pyrimidyl)piperazine using sodium triacetoxyborohydride in THF/AcOH provided the desired stereoisomer 3 in high yield and selectivity, the undesired diastereomer being completely removed by crystallization. Deprotection of 3 with 6 N HCl, followed by neutralization with 50% NaOH and extraction provided PF-734200 (4) in good yield.
