Figure imgf000002_0001
Formula I which is a key intermediate in the synthesis of oxazolidinone compounds having antibacterial 10 activity.
Background of the Invention
Oxazolidinones are a new class of synthetic antimicrobial agents, which kill gram- positive pathogens by inhibiting a very early stage of protein synthesis. Oxazolidinones inhibit the formation of ribosomal initiation complex involving 30S and 50S ribosomes 15 leading to prevention of initiation complex formation. Due to their novel mechanism of action, these compounds are active against pathogens resistant to other clinically useful antibiotics. For example, phenyloxazolodinones and phenyl piperazinyl oxazolidinones have been disclosed as being useful antimicrobial agents effective against human and veterinary pathogens including gram positive and acid-fast organisms. 0 A previosly known general method for the synthesis of the intermediate 4-(4- benzyloxy-carbonylamino-2-fluorophenyl)-piperazine-l-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester of Formula I has been reported, which comprises reacting piperazine with l,2-difluoro-4- nitrobenzene in acetonitrile to form l-(2-fluoro-4-nitrophenyl)-piρerazine, which is reacted further with di-tert-butoxycarbonyl anhydride in tetrahydrofuran to form 4-(2-fluoro-4- 5 nitrophenyl) piperazin-l-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester. The resulting nitro compound is reduced with palladium on carbon in methanol and reacted with benzylchloroformate in tetrahydrofuran to form 4-(4-benzyloxycarbonyl amino-2-fluorophenyl)-piperazin-l- carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester of Formula I.
Available methods for the synthesis of compounds of Formula I suffer from a number of limitations and accordingly, are not suitable for commercial production. For example, known methods require the use of acetonitrile, which is highly toxic, inflammable and difficult to handle at commercial scales; and tetrahydrofuran, which is unsafe and burdened with the risk of explosion and fire due to peroxide formation, as well as being an expensive solvent and adds significant factor in the overall cost of preparation of final product. Further, the nitro group reduction is carried out in methanol and tetrahydrofuran and in the presence of ammonium formate-Pd/C catalyst, which is a highly exothermic reaction. This sudden rise in temperature increases the formation of by-products and thereby decreases the overall product yield. In addition, purification of the compound involves column chromatography, which is cumbersome, tedious and not practicable on an industrial scale; the synthesis of the pure compound involves more steps; and the overall yield of the pure compound is poor. Accordingly, there remains a need for an improved, commercially viable process to synthesize oxazolidinones. Summary of the Invention
The process provided herein encompass novel methods for the synthesis of the 4-(4- benzyloxy-carbonylamino-2-fluorophenyl)-piperazine-l-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester of Formula I, which provides improvements over prior methods of synthesis. In one aspect, there is provided a process for the synthesis of highly pure 4-(4- benzyloxy-carbonylamino-2-fluorophenyl)-piperazine-l-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester of Formula I,

Formula IV and reacting the compound of Formula IN with benzylchloroformate to form 4-(4-benzyloxy- carbonylamino-2-fluorophenyl)-piperazine- 1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester of Formula I. In one aspect, the step of condensing piperazine with l,2-difluoro-4-nitrobenzene is carried out in an aromatic hydrocarbon, such as toluene, xylene and the like, or mixtures thereof, and at a temperature of, for example, about 40 °C to about 90 °C, or from about 80 °C to about 90 °C.
In another aspect, the step of contacting the compound of Formula II with di-tert- butoxycarbonyl anhydride is carried out in an aromatic hydrocarbon, such as toluene, xylene and the like, or mixtures thereof.
In yet another aspect, the step of reducing the compound of Formula III is carried out in the presence of a reducing agent, such as palladium on carbon, and in an aromatic hydrocarbon, such as toluene, xylene and the like, or mixtures thereof. In another aspect, the reaction of the compound of Formula IN with benzylchloroformate is carried out in the presence of an inorganic base, such as sodium bicarbonate, potassium carbonate or potassium bicarbonate, in an organic solvent, such as toluene, and at a temperature of about 20 °C to about 40 °C. Processes provided herein are advantageous over prior methods because, among other reasons, involve fewer steps, as some steps are carried out in situ; the purification of compound need not involve column chromatography, which thus makes the processes convenient to operate at commercial scale; the reduction may be carried out in toluene in the presence of Pd/C, avoiding the exothermicity of the reaction and by-product formation; and the processes need not involve the use of tetrahydrofuran, a material associated with a high risk of fire and explosion. Oxazolidinone compounds can be prepared from compounds of Formula I using, for example, using methods disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 6,734,307 and PCT Publication Nos. WO 02/06278, WO 03/007870, WO 03/097059, WO04/089944 and WO04/14392, which are incorporated herein by reference.

In the following section preferred embodiments are described in a way to illustrate the disclosure. However, this does not limit the scope of the present invention.
EXAMPLE Preparation of 4-(4-benzyloxy-carbonylamino-2-fluorophenyl -piperazine- 1 - carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester of Formula I
Piperazine (0.77 mol, 66.2 g) was mixed with toluene (500 mL) and stirred at room temperature and subsequently stirred at 50 °C until a homogenous solution was obtained. 1,2- difluoro-4-nitrobenzene (0.314 mol, 50 g) was added to the piperazine/toluene solution and the reaction mixture was stirred at 80-90 °C for 3-6 hours. The reaction mixture then was cooled to 40-45 °C and diluted with deionized water. The organic layer was separated and about 250-350 mL of toluene was evaporated off under reduced pressure at 40 °C. Di-tert- butoxycarbonyl anhydride (0.334mol, 75 g) was then added dropwise to the reaction mixture at room temperature. The resulting reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1-2 hours and then further diluted with hexane (200 mL) and stirred for 15-20 minutes at room temperature. The solid product formed in the reaction mixture was filtered, washed with hexane (150 mL), and dried under reduced pressure at 60-70°C to yield 4-(2-fluoro-4- nitrophenyl)-piperazine- 1-carboxylic acid tert butyl ester of Formula III. Yield = 1.8-1.9 (w\w); Purity = 96-98% by HPLC.
The compound of Formula III (0.246 mol, 80 g) was added to toluene (800 mL) followed by the addition of palladium on carbon (4 g) at room temperature with continuous stirring. Hydrogen gas was bubbled into the resulting reaction mixture at a pressure of 72 psi. The reaction mixture was stirred for 12-16 hours and then diluted with toluene (150 mL). The reaction mixture was filtered through a celite pad and washed with toluene (200 mL). Sodium bicarbonate solution was added to the reaction mixture at room temperature with continuous stirring. Benzyl chloroformate (0.310 mol, 103 g) was added dropwise to the reaction mixture with continuous stirring for 2-3 hours. Ethyl acetate (1600 mL) was added to the reaction mixture and stirred for about 30 minutes followed by addition of deionized water (400 mL). The organic layer was separated and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The semi-solid product was washed with hexane (350 mL) to obtain 4-(4-benzyloxy- carbonylamino-2-fluorophenyl)-piperazine- 1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester of Formula I as a solid. Yield = 1.16-1.23 (w/w); Purity = 97-99% by HPLC.
