The synthesis of the drug candidate (S)-oxybutynin hydrochloride 1 is described. The procedure involves initial activation of (5)cyclohexylmandelic acid 2, using isobutylchloroformate, followed by reaction of the resulting intermediate with 4-(diethylamino)but-2-yn-1-ol, 3. In this reaction, (S)-5-cyclohexyl-5-phenyl-1,3-dioxolane-2,4-dione 7 was identified as a key transient intermediate leading to 1. On the basis of the in situ IR spectroscopy data collected, the sequence of chemical events involved in the formation of intermediate 7, and its conversion to product and byproducts are described.
