The present invention relates to a process for the efficient preparation of highly optical pure chiral carvedilol. According to the present invention, a chiral oxazolidin-2-one or oxazolidin-2-thione having formula 2, produced from the reaction of N-protected 2-(2-methoxyphenoxy)ethylamine with a chiral glycidol derivative is used as a key intermediate for the preparation of the chiral carvedilol. Specifically, the process for the preparation of the chiral carvedilol comprises a) reacting a compound of formula 2 with a halogenation agent, a sulfonation agent or a mitsunobu reagent to activate a hydroxyl group of the compound of formula 2, followed by nucleophilic substitution reaction with 9H-4-hydroxy carbazole to produce a compound of formula 7, and b) subjecting the obtained compound of formula 7 to a deprotection reaction in a presence of an inorganic base to produce the targeted chiral carvedilol. The process of the present invention can be accomplished in a mild condition. The process neither requires any extraordinary purification procedure, nor involves decrease of optical purity. Therefore, the process of the present invention provides highly optical pure chiral carvedilol in simple and efficient manner.
本发明涉及一种制备高光学纯手性卡维地洛的高效过程。根据本发明,将由N-保护的2-(2-甲氧基苯氧基)乙胺与手性环氧丙醇衍生物反应制备的手性噁唑烷-2-酮或噁唑烷-2-硫酮,其化学式为2,作为制备手性卡维地洛的关键中间体。具体地,制备手性卡维地洛的过程包括:a)将化合物2与卤化试剂、磺化试剂或三宅信试剂反应,以激活化合物2的羟基,然后通过亲核取代反应与9H-4-羟基咔唑反应,得到化合物7;b)在无机碱存在下,对得到的化合物7进行去保护反应,得到目标手性卡维地洛。本发明的过程可以在温和条件下完成,既不需要任何特殊的纯化步骤,也不会降低光学纯度。因此,本发明的过程以简单、高效的方式提供了高光学纯手性卡维地洛。
