We report here an application of iron catalysis for the kilogram scale asymmetric synthesis of a proton pump inhibitor, esomeprazole, in 87% yield and 99.4% ee by catalytic sulfoxidation with hydrogen peroxide using an iron salt/chiral Schiff base in combination with a carboxylate salt. Under similar reaction conditions, other proton pump inhibitors such as (S)-lansoprazole, (S)-rabeprazole, and (S)-pantoprazole, were also synthesized in high yield and ee. A carboxylate additive was crucial for the success of this reaction, and we consider that it coordinates to the active iron species, and it also acts as a hydrogen-bond acceptor to coordinate to the substrate through the imidazole NH.

This paper presents a biphasic recognition chiral extraction system developed as a new chiral separation technology for the separation of pantoprazole enantiomers, combining a hydrophilic β-CD derivative in the aqueous phase and a hydrophobic tartaric acid in the organic phase which preferentially recognise the (R)-enantiomer and (S)-enantiomer, respectively. In this study, a number of factors which influence the efficiency of the extraction were investigated including types of organic solvents, β-CD and tartaric acid esters and their concentrations, pH and temperature. As a result, enantioselectivity for pantoprazole enantiomers can be improved up to 1.42 under optimised conditions; in addition, it is clear that the combined action of β-CD and tartaric acid esters leads to formation of the biphasic chiral extraction system with a stronger separation capacity than a monophasic chiral extraction system.
