- Development of efficient processes for the preparation of Di-tert-butyl potassium phosphate and Di-tert-butyl (Chloromethyl) phosphate
-
A new and efficient process to prepare di-tert-butyl (chloromethyl) phosphate, a key compound in the formation of many phosphon-oxymethyl pro-drugs, from chloromethyl chlorosulfate (CMCS) and di-tert-butyl potassium phosphate (DTBPP) is described. To develop a process to this important compound with overall efficiency, an improved synthesis of DTBPP was required. The two-step process to DTBPP starts from PCl3 and leverages a H2O 2/catalytic KI mediated oxidation of di-tert-butyl phosphite to provide DTBPP in 81% yield and high purity. In the development of the new process to di-tert-butyl (chloromethyl) phosphate, a comparison to the corresponding tosylate derivative was made. A rational selection of base, phase-transfer catalyst (PTC), and stabilizing additive minimized CMCS decomposition and led to an optimized yield (90% solution yield), improved product purity, and identification of a technique to enable the long-term storage of di-tert-butyl (chloromethyl) phosphate.

- PRODRUGS AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USING THE SAME
-
Prodrugs of parent drugs and methods of making and using the same are described. The prodrugs comprise an amine-containing parent drug moiety and a prodrug moiety, such as methoxyphosphonic acid or ethoxyphosphonic acid. The prodrugs may be employed in therapy for the treatment of various indications, such as pain, and in methods of decreasing the abuse potential of abuse-prone drugs and/or delaying the onset of parent drug activity and/or prolonging parent drug activity as compared to administration of a parent drug.

- Novel prodrug approach for tertiary amines: Synthesis and preliminary evaluation of N-phosphonooxymethyl prodrugs
-
The synthesis and preliminary evaluation of a novel prodrug approach for improving the water solubility of drugs containing a tertiary amine group are reported. The prodrug synthesis involves a nucleophilic substitution reaction between the parent tertiary amine and a novel derivatizing reagent, di-tert- butyl chloromethyl phosphate, resulting in formation of the quaternary salt. The tertiary butyl groups are easily removed under acidic conditions with trifluoroacetic acid giving the N-phosphonooxymethyl prodrug in the free phosphoric acid form, which can subsequently be converted to the desired salt form. The synthesis was successfully applied to a model compound (quinuclidine) and to three tertiary amine-containing drugs (cinnarizine, loxapine, and amiodarone). The prodrugs were designed to undergo a two-step bioreversion process. The first step was an enzyme-catalyzed rate-determining dephosphorylation followed by spontaneous chemical breakdown of the N- hydroxymethyl intermediate to give the parent drug. Selected prodrugs were shown to be substrates for alkaline phosphatase in vitro. A preliminary in vivo study confirmed the ability of the cinnarizine prodrug to be rapidly and completely converted to cinnarizine in a beagle dog following iv administration.
