We report here a short enantioselective synthesis of Ozanimod, a potent modulator of the enzyme Sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor (S1PR), recently approved by FDA and EMA for the treatment of relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis. Amongst different synthetic approaches explored, we achieved the best result introducing the stereogenic centre in the last step through imine asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) using Wills’ catalysts. Besides the reduced numbers of enantiomeric purity controls required, this process culminates in an exceptionally high enantioselective reductive amination obtained with commercially available tethered Ru catalysts. Starting from commercially available 4-cyano-indanone, enantiomerically pure Ozanimod was obtained in 5 steps in 62 % overall yield and 99 % ee.

Page/Page column 80-81, (2015/05/19)
Compounds that selectively modulate the sphingosine 1 phosphate receptor are provided, including compounds which modulate subtype 1 of the S1P receptor, and methods of their therapeutic and/or prophylactic use in combination with at least one other medicament adapted for treatement of a malcondition for which activation of S1P1 is medically indicated, such as multiple sclerosis.
