A novel process for the synthesis of tetrabenazine (1) and deutetrabenazine (2), two well-known drugs used for the treatment of chorea associated with Huntington's disease, has been developed. All of the reaction parameters were optimized through a series of reactions and by using Design of Experiment techniques. The newly developed methods are industrially scalable and employ cheap, commercially available raw materials and hence are highly efficient. The added advantage is that the developed processes evade the use of genotoxic alkylating agents and therefore could be considered as safe and viable alternatives to the existing methods.
Synthesis of (±)-Tetrabenazine by Visible Light Photoredox Catalysis
Orgren, Lindsey R.,Maverick, Emily E.,Marvin, Christopher C.
, p. 12635 - 12640 (2015)
(±)-Tetrabenazine was synthesized in six steps from commercially available compounds. The key cyclization substrate was assembled rapidly via Baylis-Hillman and aza-Michael reactions. Annulation of the final ring was achieved through visible light photocatalysis, wherein carbon-carbon bond formation was driven by the oxidation of a tertiary amine. Solvent played a critical role in the photoredox cyclization outcome, whereas methanol led to a mixed ketal, acetonitrile/water (10:1) gave direct cyclization to (±)-tetrabenazine and occurred more rapidly.

The present application relates to processes for making (2R,3R,11bR)-3-isobutyl-9,10-dimethoxy-2,3,4,6,7,11b-hexahydro-1H-pyrido[2,1-a]isoquinolin-2-yl (S)-2-amino-3-methylbutanoate di(4-methylbenzenesulfonate), which is an inhibitor of vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2) useful in the treatment of hyperkinetic movement disorders such as tardive dyskinesia (TD).

Paragraph 0036-0054, (2019/10/01)
The invention provides a dynamic resolution method of tetrabenazine, and belongs to the field of medicinal chemical industry. The method can be used for resolving tetrabenazine to obtain (3R,11bR)-tetrabenazine. The method comprises the following steps: mixing and reacting a resolving reagent is with tetrabenazine to obtain a desired configuration, performing separation, and then carrying out alkali dissociation to obtain the (3R,11bR)-tetrabenazine. The analytical method can effectively separate tetrabenazine, and has the advantages of high product purity, high yield, simplicity in operationand solvent recoverability.
