There is provided a process for the preparation of sitagliptin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a process for the preparation of intermediate compounds useful in the preparation of sitagliptin. In particular, there is provided a process comprising condensing 3-tert-butoxycarbonylamino-4-(2,4,5-trifluorophenyl)butyric acid of formula (II) with 3-(trifluoromethyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyrazine of formula (III) or a salt thereof in presence of a catalyst to obtain (R)-tert-butyl-4-oxo-4-(3-(trifluoromethyl)-5,6-dihydro-[1,2,4]-triazolo[4,3-a]pyrazin-7(8H)-yl)-1-(2,4,5-trifluorophenyl)butan-2-yl-carbamate of formula (IV) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The catalyst is represented by the compound of formula (V). Compound of formula (IV) or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt obtained may be deprotected to obtain a compound of formula (I).
本发明提供了一种制备西格列汀或其药学上可接受的盐的方法,以及用于制备西格列汀的中间化合物的方法。具体而言,提供了一种方法,其包括在催化剂的存在下将式(II)的3-叔丁氧羰基氨基-4-(2,4,5-三氟苯基)丁酸与式(III)的3-(三氟甲基)-5,6,7,8-四氢-[1,2,4]三唑并[4,3-a]吡嗪或其盐缩合,以得到式(IV)的(R)-叔丁基-4-氧代-4-(3-(三氟甲基)-5,6-二氢-[1,2,4]-三唑并[4,3-a]吡嗪-7(8H)-基)-1-(2,4,5-三氟苯基)丁基氨基甲酸酯或其药学上可接受的盐。催化剂由式(V)的化合物表示。所得到的式(IV)的化合物或其药学上可接受的盐可以去保护得到式(I)的化合物。
