After completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was cooled to 5oC, neutralized to pH 5-7 with 1.5 N HCl solution, and was concentrated under reduced pressure to 5–6 volume (by removal of THF (solvent) from approximately 10 volume to 5–6 volume). The residue was diluted with water (17.5 L), concentrated under reduced pressure to 8–9 volume, filtered, and dried in vacuum to obtain the compound Formula 1 as a yellow solid (2.8 kg, 90%).1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6): 11.85 (s, 1H), 7.85 (s, 1H), 4.90 (s, 2H).

[0085] To a stirred solution of (R)-3-aminopropane-1,2-diol (CAS:66211- 46-9, 4.0 kg, 43.91 mol) and Na2CO3 (14.0 kg, 132.08 mol) in water (60 L), triphosgene (9.8 kg, 32.93 mol) was added and stirred at 35oC–40oC for 21 h. After completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was cooled to 5oC, stirred for 1.5 h, filtered, and rinsed with cold water (8 L). Filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to 2-3 volume, added with EtOH (40 L), and concentrated to 3–4 volume under reduced pressure. The residue was diluted with EtOH (40 L) and sampled for KF. The above process was repeated until KF NMT 3.0% was charged with EtOH (40 L) on the residue. Then it was warmed to 35℃, stirred for 1 hour, and filtered. The obtained filtrate i.e., the cake was washed with EtOH (8 L). Filtrate wasconcentrated to 2-3 volume under reduced pressure and diluted with n-BuOH (20 L). The mixture was concentrated to 2–3 volume and the filtrate was sampled for GC: area% of EtOH NMT 1.0%. The residue was then cooled to 20–30℃ and was stirred for 1 h. The obtained slurry was then filtered and washed with n-BuOH (4 L). The filtered cake was dried under vacuum at 50℃ to obtain a white solid of Formula 2 (3.6 kg, 70.1%).1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6): 7.37 (brs, 1H), 5.07 (brs, 1H), 3.56-3.42 (m, 3H), 3.23 (dd, J=9.0, 6.0 Hz, 1H).

[0086] To a stirred solution of PPh3 (triphenyl phosphine, 6.7 kg, 25.54 mol) in DCM (52 L), cooled to 0oC, phthalimide (3.3 kg, 22.43 mol) was added and stirred for 0.5 h. To the resulting solution, compound Formula 2 (2.6 kg, 22.20 mol) was added and stirred at 0oC for 0.5 h. Then DEAD (diethyl azodicarboxylate, 4.5 kg, 25.54 mol) was added dropwise and stirred for 16 h. After completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was quenched with water (26 L), warmed to 20oC, stirred for 0.5 h, and the organic phase was collected. Then the organic phase was concentrated to 7 volume under reduced pressure. To the residue, MeOH (13 L) was added and concentrated to 7 volume. The operation was repeated twice. Then the filtrate was sampled for GC: DCM NMT 1%. Then the residue was cooled to 20oC, stirred for 1 h, the slurry mass filtered, and rinsed with MeOH (5.2 L). The obtained filter cake was refluxed in MeOH (13L) for 1 h. Then the slurry was cooled to 20oC and stirred for 1 hour. The slurry mass was then filtered and the cake was rinsed with MeOH (5.2 L). The obtained solid was dried under vacuum to afford a white solid of Formula 21 (3.05 kg, 55.2%).1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO- d6): 7.90–7.83 (m, 4H), 7.57 (s, 1H), 4.80 (ddt, J=8.6, 7.0, 5.3 Hz, 1H), 3.87 (dd, J=14.4, 7.0 Hz, 1H), 3.78 (dd, J=14.4, 5.1 Hz, 1H), 3.61 (t, J=8.9 Hz, 1H), 3.31 (d, J=9.2, 5.5 Hz, 1H). Step-3:(S)-2-((2-oxo-3-(3-oxo-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrazino[2,3-b] [1,4] oxazin-6- yl) oxazolidine-5-yl) methyl) isoindoline-1,3-dione (Formula 5A)
[0087] The compounds of Formula 1 (2.26 kg, 12.18 mol), Formula 21 (3.00 kg, 12.18 mol), and K2CO3(first base, 3.37 kg, 24.36 mol) were added in toluene (33.9 L) as solvent (second solvent). The mixture was refluxed for 2 h using the Dean-Stark apparatus, then cooled to 25oC and degassed for 2 h with nitrogen gas. To the resulting mixture, Pd2(dba)3CHCl3(second reagent, 378 g, 0.37 mol), t- BuXPhos (second reagent, 310 g, 0.74 mol), and DMF (second solvent, 11.3 L) were added. The resulting mixture was degassed with a stream of nitrogen gas for 1 h. Then the mixture was warmed to 100oC and stirred for 16 hours. After completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was cooled to 20oC and stirred for 1 h. The solid was filtered and rinsed with toluene (4.5 L). The filter cake was slurred with 1.5 N HCl solution (33.9 L) at 30oC for 1 h, then the slurry mass was filtered, and the filtered cake was rinsed with water (4.5 L). The obtained solid was dried under vacuum to obtain an off-white solid of Formula 5A (4.90 kg crude, QNMR assay: 85.4%, corrected yield: 85.1%).1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO- d6): 11.68 (s, 1H), 8.34 (s, 1H), 7.93–7.85 (m, 4H), 4.98 (dq, J=8.4, 6.0 Hz, 1H), 4.85 (s, 2H), 4.22 (dd, J=10.2, 8.6 Hz, 1H), 4.01 (d, J=5.6 Hz, 1H), 3.93 (dd, J=10.2, 6.4 Hz, 1H).
[0088] The process exhibited the best conversion and higher purity with 1,4-dioxane as solvent and K2CO3as base at 95-105℃, or with toluene / DMF as solvent and K2CO3 as at 95-105℃. Significance of first base:
[0089] The above reaction of obtaining the compound of Formula 5A from the compounds of Formula 1 and 21 was carried out by varying the base (first base) selected from potassium phosphate, triethyl amine, sodium t-butoxide, potassium t- butoxide, 1,8-diazabicyclo(5.4.0) undec-7-ene (DBU), and 1,4-diazabicyclo(2.2.2) octane (DABCO), which resulted in higher yield of Formula 5A. However, it was observed that the use of other bases such as Cs2CO3 did not result in the formation of compound of Formula 5A. Significance of temperature range:
[0090] In another example, the compound of Formula 5A was prepared by treating the compounds of Formula 1, Formula 21 and in 1,4-dioxane as solvent(second solvent). The mixture was refluxed for 2 h using the Dean-Stark apparatus, then cooled to 25oC and degassed for 2 h with nitrogen gas. To the resulting mixture, Pd2(dba)3CHCl3 (second reagent), t-BuXPhos (second reagent) and DMF (second solvent) were added. The resulting mixture was degassed with a stream of nitrogen gas for 1 h. Then the mixture was warmed to a temperature of 55-65oC and stirred for 16 hours. After completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was cooled to 20oC and stirred for 1 h. The solid was filtered and rinsed with 1,4- dioxane. The filter cake was slurred with 1.5 N HCl solution at 30oC for 1 h, then the slurry mass was filtered, and the filtered cake was rinsed with water. The obtained solid was dried under vacuum to obtain an off-white solid of Formula 5A. The yield was found to be in a range of 50-55%. Also, the compound of Formula 5A was prepared by the process explained herein and by varying the temperature at which the mixture was warmed in a range of 75 to 85oC, and the yield of Formula 5A was found to be in a range of 50-55%.
[0091] Thus, the optimal temperature which provided higher yield of at least 70% of compound of Formula 5A was found to be in a range of 90 to 110℃, beyond which the yield was reduced and consumed longer duration for conversion to Formula 5A.
[0092] It is to be noted that the process of preparing the compound of Formula I via Formula 5A did not involve use of harsh chemicals whereas the existing process of preparing the compound of Formula I uses hazardous chemicals such as sodium azide and mesityl chloride. Alternate process for preparing the compound of Formula 5A
[0093] Alternatively, the compound of Formula 5A was prepared by reacting the compound of Formula 4 (WO2018225097) with potassium phthalimide, in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) as solvent resulted in Formula 5A with 23% yield.Purification for Formula 5A
[0094] The crude Formula 5A (4.90 kg) was combined with the other four batch crude materials. The crude Formula 5A (23.3 kg, QNMR = 86.3%) was mixed with DMSO (627.7 kg). The mixture was warmed to 50–55oC and stirred for 2 hours. Then the slurry mass was cooled to 30–35oC, stirred for 1 h, and filtered with washed cake DMSO (13.1 kg).3-Mercaptopropyl ethyl sulfide silica (4.66 kg) was charged to the filtrate, and the mixture was stirred for 16 hours at 30-35oC. Then the mixture was filtered and washed the cake with DMSO (13.5 kg). To the remaining filtrate, 0.1 N HCl (300.1 kg) was charged, stirred for 1 h at 25oC, and filtered. The filter cake was slurred with 0.1 N HCl (224 kg) for 1 h at 25oC. The slurry was filtered, and the cake was rinsed with water (47.2 kg). The filter cake was dried under vacuum to obtain Formula 5A (19.2 kg, QNMR=95.3% (purity), 91.5% (yield)).1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6): 11.68 (s, 1H), 8.34 (s, 1H), 7.93–7.85 (m, 4H), 4.98 (dq, J=8.4, 6.0 Hz, 1H), 4.85 (s, 2H), 4.22 (dd, J=10.2, 8.6 Hz, 1H), 4.01 (d, J=5.6 Hz, 1H), 3.93 (dd, J=10.2, 6.4 Hz, 1H).
