A biocatalyzed reduction of a prochiral bicyclic ketone afforded enantiomerically pure (R)-2-acetylamino-6-hydroxy-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzothiazole, a synthon of the anti-Parkinson (S)-pramipexole and its (R)-isomer, which is currently under investigation for the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF PRAMIPEXOLE BASE AND/OR ITS SALTS

Page/Page column 6-7, (2008/06/13)
The process for the preparation of pramipexole base and/or its pharmaceutically accepted salts, especially hydrochloride salt, is based on the reaction of (S)-(-)2,6-diamino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzothiazole with an alkylating agent, wherein the reaction is carried out with the absence of a base, in a solvent from which the resulting N-monoalkylated product selectively precipitates out as a salt, which, after isolation from the reaction mixture: a) upon the treatment of inorganic base is converted into free pramipexole base, and then into another pharmaceutically accepted pramipexole salt, or b) is converted directly into another pharmaceutically accepted pramipexole salt or the hydrate thereof.
