Problems solved by technology

Untreated secondary HPT is characterized by abnormal calcium and phosphorus levels and is associated with serious consequences, including cardiovascular morbidity.
Increased PTH stimulates osteoclastic activity resulting in cortical bone resorption and marrow fibrosis.
Such elevation would frequently require treatment to be interrupted and le...

Allylic Amination

[0109]

[0110](R)-(1-Naphthyl)ethylamine (257 mg, 1.5 mmol) and 3-trifluoromethyl cinnamyl acetate (244 mg, 1 mmol) were charged to a 15 mL flask. Tetrahydrofuran (THF, 2 mL) and tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (58 mg, 5 mol %) were added, and the flask was purged with nitrogen. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 16 h. The solvents were evaporated under vacuum and the residue was dissolved in dichloromethane (10 mL). The organic phase was washed with saturated sodium bicarbonate (5 mL) and the aqueous phase was back extracted with dichloromethane (5 mL). The organic layers were dried over magnesium sulfate and evaporated to dryness. Chromatography on silica gel using dichloromethane:methanol (50:1) as eluent afforded the desired (R)-(1-naphthalen-1-yl-ethyl)-[(E)-3-(3-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-allyl}-amine (294 mg, 98.1% HPLC purity at 254 nm, 83% uncorrected yield). The product was contaminated by some triphenylphosphine. The dialkylated pro...

Peptide Coupling

[0116]In an alternative embodiment the present invention provides a methodology for synthesizing cinacalcet by a reaction between the appropriate amine and a pre-activated carboxylic acid.

[0117]The reaction was initiated by the addition of trans-3-trifluromethyl cinnamoyl chloride (1.0 equiv.; 21.3 mmol; 5 g) to a stirred solution of (R)-(+)-1-(1-napthyl)ethylamine (1.1 equiv.; 23.4 mmol; 4 g) and triethylamine (1.1 equiv.; 23.4 mmol; 3.26 mL) in toluene (100 mL) in an inert atmosphere of nitrogen. After stirring for 2 hours at room temperature, water (100 mL) was added to precipitate the crude product as a white solid. The solid was filtered and dried in a vacuum oven over night at 55° C. Yield: 82%; 6.49 g. The identity of (E)-N-((R)-1-Naphthalen-1-yl-ethyl)-3-(3-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-acrylamide was confirmed by 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) and high resolution mass spectrometry. δ ppm 1.76 (d, 3H) 5.85 (d, 1H) 6.08 (quin, 1H) 6.39 (d, 1H) 7.43-7.73 (m, 9H) 7.80-7.91 (...

Metal Catalyzed Cross-Coupling Reaction

[0126]Cinacalcet can be synthesized via a metal catalyzed coupling reaction between an appropriately substituted aryl halide and N-((R)-1-Naphthalen-1-yl-ethyl)-acrylamide. The acrylamide was synthesized by adding acryloyl chloride (1.2 equiv.; 17.5 mmol; 1.58 g) via syringe to an ice cold solution of (R)-(+)-1-(1-napthyl)ethylamine (2.50 g, 14.6 mmol, 1.0 eq.), and triethylamine (1.2 equiv.; 17.5 mmol; 1.77 g) in toluene (50 ml). After the addition of acryloyl chloride is complete, the reaction mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature. The reaction was quenched after stirring for an hour at room temperature by adding water (50 mL) to the reaction mixture. The crude product which precipitates out was filtered and dried in vacuo. Crude yield 79%; 3.1 g. The identity of the product was confirmed by 1H NMR and LC / MS.

Abstract

Methods of preparing cinacalcet, cinacalcet derivatives, and salts thereof is disclosed herein. Also disclosed herein are polymorphs of cinacalcet, compositions of cinacalcet, and methods of treating a subject by administering cinacalcet, wherein cinacalcet is prepared by the disclosed methods.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present disclosure is directed to synthetic processes and intermediates of the calcimimetic agent cinacalcet and salts thereof, polymorphs of cinacalcet, compositions of the same, and methods of treating subject suffering from hypercalcemia using the compositions.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Sensipar® (cinacalcet) is a calcimimetic agent that has the chemical name N-[1-(R)-(−)-(1-naphthyl)ethyl]-3-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-1-aminopropane hydrochloride, has the empirical formula C22H22F3N·HCl, and has the structural formulaThe molecular weight of the hydrochloride salt is 393.9 g / mol and the free base is 357.4 g / mol. There is one chiral center in the molecule (marked with a *), and the R enantiomer is the more potent enantiomer.[0003]Cinacalcet hydrochloride is commercially available as Sensipar® and Mimpara®. The calcimimetic agent is used to increase the sensitivity of the calcium-sensing receptor to activation by extracellular calcium. This ca...
