CPC C07D 309/10 (2013.01) | 23 Claims |
1. A process for the preparation of dapagliflozin of Formula I or its solvates or co-crystals thereof,
![]() comprising:
a) (i) reacting a compound of Formula VI with a leaving group source to form a compound of Formula VIa′, (ii) reacting the compound of Formula VIa′ with an amine source in the presence of a base and a solvent to obtain a compound of Formula VII,
![]() wherein
X1 and Lg each independently represent a leaving group; and
R1 and R2 independently represent hydrogen, a linear or branched alkyl group, a linear or branched alkenyl group, a cycloalkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group, or a substituted or unsubstituted aralkyl group, or R1 and R2 together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached form a heterocyclic ring;
b) condensing the compound of Formula VII with a glucono lactone of Formula VIII in the presence of a base and a solvent to obtain a compound of Formula IX′,
![]() wherein R1 and R2 are as defined above and wherein P1, P2, P3 and P4 each independently represent a hydroxyl protecting group;
c) converting the compound of Formula IX′ to a compound of Formula XI′ with a glycosidation reagent in the presence of methanol,
![]() wherein P1, P2, P3, P4, R1, and R2 are as defined above; and
d) reducing the compound of Formula XI′ using a reducing agent to obtain the dapagliflozin of Formula I; and
e) optionally, adding a solvent to the dapagliflozin of Formula I to obtain a solvate thereof, or adding a co-crystal former to form a co-crystal thereof.
