Description

New quinoline derivatives and process for the preparatio thereof
The present invention is directed to a process for the preparation of quinoline derivatives of the general formula (I)
wherein stands for hydrogen or a group of the formula (II)
by reacting a halogene quinoline derivative of the general formula (III)
wherein
X stands for chlorine or bromine - with picoliπe oxide of the formula (IV)
in the presence of alkali-t-alkylate, preferably potas- sium-t-butylate or b) oxydizing a compound of the formula (V).
The definition of the substituents is as follows:
R stands for hydrogen or a group of the formula (II) X stands for chlorine or bromine.
The novel compounds according to the present inven¬ tion are important intermediates for the preparation of pharmaceutically active compounds. Thus, for instance the novel compounds are valuable intermediates of erithro- -alfa-2-piperidyl-2,8-bis(trifluor-methyl)-quinoline- -4-methanol-hydrochloride (meflokin). This latter active ingredient can be successfully used in pharmaceutically active compositions against malaria.
Meflokin has been first prepared (see 3 . Med. Che . l±, 926 (1971)) by reacting a 2,8-bis(trifluor- -methyl)-quiπoliπe-4-carboxylic acid syπthetized in three steps with 2-lithio-pyridine and by hydratiπg the obtained 2-pyridyl-2 , 8-bis(trifluor-methyl)-quinolyl- -ketone ("Ketone") above Adams-catalyst. From the above quinoline carboxylic acid intermediate the ketone was obtained also by reacting it with 2-bromo-magnesium- pyridiπe (DOS 29 40443), and by hydrating the "ketone" analogously to meflokin above a platina charcoal cata¬ lyst. The unisolated intermediate of the reduction step (2-piridyl)- -2,8-bis(trifluor-methyl)-quinoline-4-methanol is referred to hereinafter as "Oxy-methane. This compound can be obtained also by reacting 4-lithio-quinoline derivatives obtained from 2 , 8-bis(trifluor-methyl)-4-bromo-quinoline by lithiation with 2-pyridine-aldehyde (DOS 28066909). According to a newer technical solution the metallation step is eliminated and thereby a cheeper starting mate¬ rial can be used compared to the so far known quinoline intermediates. When reacting 2,8-bis(trifluor-methyl)-4- -chloro-quinoline with 2-pyridyl-acetonitrile or with 2-pyridyl-methyl-phosphonium salt the obtained inter¬ mediate results in ketone by oxidation. According to the authors in these cases in order to subject the halogen of the quinoline in 4-positioπ to nucleophil substitution the pyridiπe reactaπt has to contain on the methyl group an electron withdrawing substitueπt (see the above mentioned carbonitrile or phosphonium group) (EP0049776).
In EPA 0049 776 in Example 1 the aromatic nucleophil substitution of 2-methyl-pyridine-N-oxide has been men¬ tioned which was carried out with sodium amide in di- ethoxy-ethane, but the structure of the obtained product has not been determined, no physical-chemical data were given and the reference was already cancelled from the granted patent.
The above mentioned processes have several disad¬ vantages, such as the already mentioned metallation steps or the expensive quinoline intermediates (such as 2,8-bis(trifluoro-methyl)-4-bromo-quinoline or the corresponding quinoline-4-carboxylic acid) and the pyri- dine derivatives are expensive and not easily accessible. These disadvantages could be successfully eliminated by using a quinoline intermediate of the general formula (III) and 2-methyl-pyridine-N-oxide. The quinoline inter¬ mediate of the general formula (III) is prepared by our method disclosed in USP 45 99 345 and USP 46 59 834 which is also suitable for the industrial synthesis of 2,8-bis(trifluoro-methyl)-4-chloro-quinoline. We have now found that as opposed to the teaching of EP 0 049 776 the electron withdrawing substituent is not necessary on the methyl group of picoline as the cheaper and easier accessible 2-methyl-pyridine-N-oxide can be reacted without the electron withdrawing substi- tuent as well. According to the present invention di(2,8-bis(tri- fluor-methyl)-quinoline-4-yl)~N-oxy-2-pyridyl-me hane can also be prepared depending on the circumstances. This compound is novel. By using the suitable condensat- ing agent or an excess of 2-methyl-pyridine-N-oxide depending on the solvent and/or by using a dilute reac¬ tion mixture substantially only moπo-quinolyl-derivative is obtained.
According to process a.) of the present invention one may preferably proceed by reacting a halogene-quino- line-derivative of the general formula (III) with 2- -methyl-pyridine-N-oxide in the presence of potassium tertiary-butylate and as reaction medium tertiary alcohols or inert solvents, such as aromatic hyrocarbons, cyclic or acyclic ethers, dimethyl-formamide, dimethyl-sulphoxide preferably toluene or tetrahydrofuraπ are used.
According to the process variant b.) one may prefer¬ ably oxidize a compound of the formula (V) with per acids, preferably with per acetic-acid or hydrogen-peroxide. The starting material of process variant b.) is the compound of the formula (V) or salts thereof which compounds are new. The compound of the formula (V) can be prepared from the derivatives of the formula (VI)
or (VII )
by eliminating the nitrile or =0 group.
The elimination of the nitrile group can be per¬ formed in an acid medium, such as sulphuric acid by heating in the presence of water.
The product can be obtained after neutralizing the reaction mixture by purification in a solvent in a crystalline form. The elimination of the oxygen from the ketone derivative can be performed by catalytic reduction with hydrogen or transfer hydrogenolysis , preferably by a treatment with ammoπium-formiate in the presence of a metal catalyst or formic acid.
The present invention also extends to the novel compounds of the general formula (I), to the novel com¬ pound of the formula (V) and salts thereof.
The novel compounds according to the invention can be isolated from the reaction mixture as outlined in the following examples. If the compounds have to be converted to oxymethane by rearranging, then isolation from the reaction medium is not necessary, if the re- arraπgmεnt is carried out by the method of our copending Hungarian patent application No. 3736/89.
The details of the present invention are shown in the following examples. Example 1
