A highly enantioselective organocatalytic transfer hydrogenation enabling the synthesis of both 6-fluoro-2-methyltetrahydroquinoline and 7,8-difluoro-3-methyl-benzoxazine has been developed. These key building blocks can for the first time be synthesized using the same methodology allowing fast and efficient, metal-free access to the antibiotic fluoroquinolones flumequine and levofloxacine.

Optically active 7,8-difluoro-3,4-dihydro-3--methyl-2H-[1,4]benzoxazines and 7,8-difluoro-3,4-dihydro-2--methyl-2H-[1,4]benzoxazines and the corresponding benzothiazines of formula III, where, one of the substituents R1, R2, R3 and R4 is CH2OH or -CH2Z, the remaining being hydrogen, X denotes fluoro, chloro, methyl or hydrogen, Y is oxygen or sulfur and Z is hydrogen, fluoro or protected hydroxyl are obtained as the stereochemically pure products of a stereospecific synthesis using a 3,4-difluoronitrobenzene substituted with a stereochemically pure 2-(1-hydroxyisopropoxy), 2-(2--hydroxypropoxy), 2-(1-hydroxyisopropylthio) or 2-(2--hydroxypropylthio) substituent. The obtained compounds are suited for the production of optically active pyridobenzoxazines and pyridobenzothiazines, among which are useful antibacterial optically active quinolones, particularly (S)-(-)-ofloxacin.
Chiral DNA gyrase inhibitors. 2. Asymmetric synthesis and biological activity of the enantiomers of 9-fluoro-3-methyl-10-(4-methyl-1-piperazinyl)-7-oxo-2,3-dihydro-7H-py ido[1,2,3,-de]-1,4-benzoxazine-6-carboxylic acid (ofloxacin)

A short and efficient synthesis, starting with (R)- and (S)-alaninol, of the two optical antipodes of the quinolone antimicrobial agent ofloxacin has been devised. Testing in vitro of the products against a range of bacteria and in an assay system incorporating purified DNA gyrase from different bacterial species demonstrates that the S-(-) enantiomer is substantially the more active.
