Background of the Invention
A number of compounds of industrial interest, in particular Pharmaceuticals for human or veterinary use, contain a sulfinyl or sulfonyi group. Their synthesis usually comprises an oxidation step wherein a thioether intermediate (-S-) is transformed into a sulfinyl (-SO-) compound. Different oxidizing agents are available for this oxidation, such as those described by S. Uemura in "Comprehensive Organic Synthesis", chapter 6.2, edited B. M. Trost and J. Fleming, Pergamon Press (1991). Nevertheless, only some of these oxidizing agents are suitable for industrial application, due to the facts that they are not easily available on the market, environmentally unsafe and their poor chemical selectivity. Among those suitable for industrial use, hydrogen peroxide and sodium hypochlorite arc usually preferred, as they are commercially available in large amounts and at low cost, Moreover, the oxidation of organic compounds with hydrogen peroxide is very often carried out in the presence of catalysts based on transition metals, such as tungsten, titanium, vanadium and molybdenum. The removal of these catalysts from the reaction product is recognizably troublesome, as it requires additional purification steps with consequent increase in production costs and decrease in yield.
In general, the oxidizing power of sodium hypochlorite is not sufficient to obtain sulfonyi derivatives. Moreover, in most cases the oxidation of thioethers with sodium hypochlorite is not sufficiently selective and leads to undesired byproducts.
A known medicament that contains a sulfinyl group is modafmil, i.e. 2- [(diphenylmcthyl)sulfmyl]acetamide. According to various synthetic methods, intermediate 2- [(diphenylmethyl)thio] acetic acid or 2-[(diphenylmethyl) thio]acetamide is oxidized with hydrogen peroxide to give 2-[(diphenylmethyl) sulfmyl]acetic acid, or 2-[(diphenylmethyl)sulfmyl]acetamide, respectively. This oxidation, usually performed with 110 volumes hydrogen peroxide.
involves safety problems. Similar problems also occur in the synthesis of other biologically active sulfinyl compounds, such as sulindac, i.e. (Z)-5-fluoro-2- metfayl- l-[[4-(methyl^ulflnyI)phenyl]niethytene]-lH-indcne-3-acetic acid, and the so-called "prazoles", i.e. [[(pyridyl)methyl]sulfmyl]benzimidazole derivatives, which are known anti-secretory agents. Benzimidazole derivatives of general formula (I) are produced from their corresponding sulphides by oxidation with an oxidising agent exemplified by m-chloroperbenzoic acid, petacetic acid, trifluoroperacetic acid, permaleic acid, sodium bromite, sodiumhypochlorite, hydrogen peroxide or other reagents as described in a number of patents.
The reported prior art synthesis of these substituted 2- (2-pyridyImethyi)- sulfmyl-lH- benzϊmidazoles generally involves an oxidation process of a sulfide compound to the corresponding sulfinyl compound as indicated in the following scheme 1.
Scheme 1
Oxidizing agents previously disclosed in the art for the oxidation of the sulfide compound include iodosobenzene (Spanish Patent No. 539,793 (1985)), iodosomethylbenzene (Spanish Patent No. 540,147 (1985)), m-chloroperbenzoic acid (US Patent No. 4,628,098 (1986) and 4,255,431 (1981)), peroxyacetic acid (WO 98/09962 (1998)), sodium hypochlorite (EP 268,956 (198S)), sodium periodate (Spanish Patent No. 550,070 (1985)) and the like. However, m-chloroperbenzoic acid is usually used in view of its activity and easiness of weighing.
In European patent application 030272O5 production of 2- (2- pyridylmethylsulfinyl)-benzimidazole compounds is described. In this patent, production of compound (I) with the oxidation of its corresponding sulphide with hydrogen peroxide in the presence vanadium compounds in good yield and with low production of by product is laid open.
All these prior art processes either use expensive catalysts or oxidising agents like meta chloroperbenzoic acid. Moreover, their usage results in over- oxidation of the thioether compound leading to corresponding sulphone analogues.
The processes to date described for the preparation of benzimidazole derivatives still suffer from some drawbacks and there is need for a safer, cost- effective and more efficient synthetic process, which at the same time provides a sufficiently pure material to meet regulatory requirements while the by-products formed are easily removed without damaging the environment.
It has now been found that the oxidation of a thioether group to a sulfinyl (sulfoxide) or sulfonyl (.sulfone) group can be advantageously carried out using peroxyacetic acid as the oxidizing agent. In particular, it has been found that peroxyacetic acid in combination with sodium carbonate while maintaining the pH between 5-7 produces benzimidazole derivatives such as Pantoprazole, Lansoprazole and Rabeprazole with relatively higher purity and remarkably reduced process impurities. Moreover, peroxyacetic acid and its reduced byproduct, acetic acid is low polluting and can be advantageously used on a large scale.
It has been surprisingly found that the usage of mixture of chlorinated solvent and alcohol in the oxidation process is drastically reducing the process impurities like sulphone and N-oxide.
