Check Digit Verification of cas no

The CAS Registry Mumber 56718-76-4 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 5,6,7,1 and 8 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 7 and 6 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 56718-76:
(7*5)+(6*6)+(5*7)+(4*1)+(3*8)+(2*7)+(1*6)=154
154 % 10 = 4
So 56718-76-4 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

Method for preparing metoprolol succinate

-

Paragraph 0036-0037; 0039-0040; 0042-0043; 0045-0046, (2020/09/16)

The invention relates to a method for preparing high-purity metoprolol succinate, which adopts a single solvent system to prepare the metoprolol succinate in a reverse dropping mode. The method is simple and convenient to operate, stable in process, high in salifying yield and purity, low in process cost, and has good practical value. A single conventional solvent is adopted, so that post-treatment and solvent recovery are facilitated, and the method is environment-friendly.

Kinetic resolution of (: RS)-1-chloro-3-(4-(2-methoxyethyl)phenoxy)propan-2-ol: a metoprolol intermediate and its validation through homology model of Pseudomonas fluorescens lipase

Soni, Surbhi-,Dwivedee, Bharat P.,Sharma, Vishnu K.,Banerjee, Uttam C.

, p. 36566 - 36574 (2017/08/02)

In the present study Pseudomonas fluorescens lipase (PFL) was screened as a time efficient biocatalyst for the kinetic resolution of a racemic intermediate [(RS)-1-chloro-3-(4-(2-methoxyethyl)phenoxy)propan-2-ol] of metoprolol, an important selective β1-blocker drug. PFL selectively acylated the R-form of this racemic intermediate in a short duration of 3 h. Different reaction parameters were optimized to achieve maximum enantioselectivity. It was found that at 30 °C, enzyme activity of 400 units and substrate concentration of 10 mM gave a high enantioselectivity and conversion in an optimum time of 3 hours (C = 50.5%, eep = 97.2%, ees = 95.4%, E = 182). To validate these experimental results, the 3D structure of PFL was built using homology modelling. Validation of the model through Ramachandran plot (92.7% in favored region), Errat plot (overall quality factor, 79.27%), Verify-3D score (86.19) and ProSA-Z score (-6.24) depicted the overall good quality of the model. Molecular docking of the R- and S-enantiomers of the intermediate, which was performed on this model, demonstrated a strong H-bond interaction (1.6 ?) between the hydroxyl group of the R-enantiomer and Arg54, a key binding residue of the catalytic site of PFL, while no significant interaction with the S-enantiomer was observed. Thus, the outcome of this docking study was in agreement with the experimental data, clarifying that PFL preferentially catalysed the transesterification of the R-enantiomer into the corresponding ester, leaving the S-enantiomer intact.

Continuous and convergent access to vicinyl amino alcohols

Nobuta, Tomoya,Xiao, Guozhi,Ghislieri, Diego,Gilmore, Kerry,Seeberger, Peter H.

supporting information, p. 15133 - 15136 (2015/10/12)

Five active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) containing the vicinyl amino alcohol moiety were synthesized using a convergent chemical assembly system. The continuous system is composed of four flow reaction modules: biphasic oxidation, Corey-Chaykovsky epoxidation, phenol alkylation, and epoxide aminolysis. Judicious choice of reagents and module order allowed for two classes of β-amino alcohols, aryl and aryloxy, to be synthesized in good (27-69%) overall yields.

Chemoenzymatic synthesis of the potential antihypertensive agent (2R,2′S)-β-hydroxyhomometoprolol

Regla, Ignacio,Luviano-Jardon, Axel,Demare, Patricia,Hong, Enrique,Torres-Gavilan, Alejandro,Lopez-Munguia, Agustin,Castillo, Edmundo

experimental part, p. 2439 - 2442 (2009/04/11)

The kinetic resolution of 1-chloro-3-[4-(2-methoxyethyl)phenoxy]-2-propanol rac-4 with Novozym 435 and vinyl stearate, a key step in the gram-scale synthesis of (2S)-2-[[(2R)-2-hydroxy-3-[4-(2-methoxyethyl)phenoxy]propyl]amino]-1-butanol (R,S)-1 a potent antihypertensive agent currently under investigation, is reported here. Our approach differs from the previously reported synthesis, which involves a tedious and poorly effective fractional crystallization of (R,S)-1. This novel approach incorporates an enzymatic resolution for the efficient preparation of the oxirane precursor (R)-3. The two main advantages arising from this strategy are the high enantioselectivity of the enzymatic process and the facilitated recovery of the hydrophobic stearate intermediate (S)-5.

Synthesis of β-chlorohydrins in water

, p. 149 - 152 (2007/10/03)

2,4,6-Trichloro-1,3,5-triazine (TCT, cyanuric chloride) was found to mediate the regio- and stereoselective ring opening of epoxides in H 2O in the presence of morpholine at room temperature to afford the corresponding β-chlorohydrins in excellent yields (Table). The transformation is very simple, fast, efficient, and ecologically beneficial.

Synthesis and cardiovascular activity of metoprolol analogues

Melgar-Fernandez, Roberto,Demare, Patricia,Hong, Enrique,Rosas, Miguel Angel,Escalante, Jaime,Munoz-Muniz, Omar,Juaristi, Eusebio,Regla, Ignacio

, p. 191 - 194 (2007/10/03)

The synthesis of four novel analogues of metoprolol, a well-known β1-blocker used to reduce arterial blood pressure, is described. The preparation of (2S,2′S)-7, (2R,2′S)-7, (2R,2′R)-8, and (2S,2′R)-8 was based on the reaction of racemic 2-[4-(2′- methoxyethyl)-phenoxymethyl]-oxirane (4) with (R)- or (S)-2-amino-1-butanol. Salient characteristics of analogues 7 and 8 relative to metoprolol are the incorporation of an additional stereogenic center, as well as a methyl group and a hydroxyl function on the nitrogen-containing chain. These novel derivatives present significant hypotensive and bradycardiac activity, although no blocking action toward β1 and β2 adrenergic receptor.
