PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF OSELTAMIVIR AND METHYL 3-EPI-SHIKIMATE
-
Paragraph 0116-0118, (2014/09/03)
The present invention discloses high yielding enantioselective process for synthesis of Oseltamivir from readily available starting material, cis-1,4-butene diol. The process features incorporation of chirality using sharpless asymmetric epoxidation (AE) and diastereoselective Barbier allylation and construction of cyclohexene carboxylic acid ester core through a ring closing metathesis (RCM) reaction. Further also disclosed herein is synthesis of (?)-methyl 3-epi-shikimate.

A new enantioselective synthesis of the anti-influenza agent (-)-oseltamivir free base (7.1% overall yield; 98% ee) and (-)-methyl 3-epi-shikimate (16% overall yield; 98% ee) has been described from readily available raw materials. Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation and diastereoselective Barbier allylation of an aldehyde are the key reactions employed in the incorporation of chirality, while the cyclohexene carboxylic ester core was constructed through a ring closing metathesis reaction.
