Processes for making alkylated arylpiperazine and alkylated arylpiperidine compounds including novel intermediates
Novel processes, and intermediates, for making alkylated arylpiperazine and alkylated arylpiperidine compounds of the general formulas (I) and (VII), respectively wherein, R 1 and R 2 are individually selected from hydrogen, alkyl, substituted or alkyl; n=0, 1, or 2; Y=NR 3 R 4 , OR 5 , or SR 5 , where R 3 and R 4 are individually selected from acyl or sulfonyl, and where R 5 is aryl or heteroaryl, or heterocyclic; and Ar is an aryl, heteroaryl, or heterocyclic compound.
1. A process for preparing lurasidone comprising the steps of:
(i) alkylating (3aR,4S,7R,7aS)-hexahydro-1H-4,7-methanoisoindole-1,3(2H)-dione by reacting it with (5aR,9aR)-octahydrobenzo[e][1,3,2]dioxathiepine-3,3-dioxide in the presence of K 2 CO 3 to form potassium ((1R,2R)-2-(((3aR,4S,7R,7aS)-1,3-dioxooctahydro-2H-4,7-methanoisoindol -2-yl)methyl)cyclohexyl)methyl sulfate;
(ii) hydrolyzing potassium ((1R,2R)-2-(((3 aR,4S,7R,7 aS)-1,3 -dioxooctahydro-2H-4,7-methanoisoindol -2-yl)methyl)cyclohexyl)methyl sulfate to form (3aR,4S,7R,7aS)-2-(((1R,2R)-2-(hydroxymethyl) cyclohexyl)methyl) hexahydro-1H-4,7-methanoisoindole-1,3 (2H)-dione;
(iii) reacting (3aR,4S,7R,7aS)-2-(((1R,2R)-2-(hydroxymethyl)cyclohexyl)methyl) hexahydro-1H-4,7-methanoisoindole-1,3(2H)-dione with methanesulfonyl chloride to form ((1R,2R)-2-(((3 aR,4S,7R,7aS)-1,3-dioxooctahydro-2H-4,7-methanoisoindol-2-yl) methyl)cyclohexyl)methyl methanesulfonate; and
(iv) reacting 3-(piperazin-l-yl)benzo[d]isothiazole with ((1R,2R)-2-(((3aR,4S,7R,7aS)- 1,3-dioxooctahydro-2H-4,7-methanoisoindol-2-yl)methyl)cyclohexyl)methyl methanesulfonate to form (3 aR,4S,7R,7aS)-2(((1R,2R)-2-((4-(benzo[d]isothiazol-3-yl)piperazin-1- yl) methyl)cyclohexyl)methyl)hexahydro-1H-4,7-methanoisoindole-1,3(2H)-dione (Lurasidone).
