, (2008/06/13)
A novel three-step process for resolving a racemic spiro-hydantoin compound into its optical antipodes is disclosed, which involves (1) reacting said racemic compound with an optically-active asymmetric isocyanate of the formula RNCO, wherein R is (S)- or (R)-1-phenylethyl or (S) or (R)-1-(1-naphthyl)ethyl, to form the corresponding diastereomeric uredio compound; (2) separating the resulting diastereomeric mixture into its component parts, and (3) thereafter converting the separated ureido diastereomers obtained in step (b) to the corresponding asymmetric hydantoin compounds by treatment with an alkali metal lower alkoxide (C1 -C4), followed by acidification, whereupon the desired optical isomer is obtained. The final products so obtained, such as (4S)-(+)-6-fluoro-2,3-dihydro-spiro[4H-1-benzopyran-4,4'-imidazolidine]-2', 5'-dione (sorbinil) and (5'S)-3'-chloro-5', 6', 7', 8'-tetra-hydro-spiro[imidazolidine-4,5'-quinoline]-2,5-dione, are known to be useful in preventing or alleviating certain chronic diabetic complications. The aforementioned diastereomeric uredio intermediates are novel compounds.

An improved process for preparing (4S)-6-fluorospiro-[chroman-4,4''-imidazolidine]-2'',5''-dione (sorbinil) or its (2R)-methyl derivative (2-methylsorbinil) is disclosed herein, starting from p-fluorophenol in each instance. The final products obtained ha
Spiro hydantoin aldose reductase inhibitors

Sorbitol formation from glucose, catalyzed by the enzyme aldose reductase, is believed to play a role in the development of certain chronic complications of diabetes mellitus. Spiro hydantoin derived from five- and six-membered ketones fused to an aromatic ring or ring system inhibit aldose reductase isolated from calf lens. In vivo these compounds are potent inhibitors of sorbitol formation in sciatic nerves of streptozotocinized rats. Optimum in vivo activity is reached in spiro hydantoins derived from 6-halogenated 2,3-dihydro-4H-1-benzopyran-4-ones (4-chromanones). In 2,4-dihydro-6-fluorospirol[4H-1-benzopyran-4,4'-imidazolidine]-2',5'- ione, the activity resides exclusively in the 4S isomer, compound 115 (CP-45,634, USAN: sorbinil). This compound is currently being used to test, in humans, the value of aldose reductase inhibitors in the therapy of diabetic complications.

Regeneration of 6-fluoro-4-chromanone from 6-fluoro-4-ureidochroman-4-carboxylic acid
-
, (2008/06/13)
6-Fluoro-4-chromanone can be regenerated from (R)-6-fluoro-4-ureidochroman-4-carboxylic acid, or from mixtures of (R)-6-fluoro-4-ureidochroman-4-carboxylic acid and its racemic modification, by oxidation with a permanganate, especially potassium permanganate. 6-Fluoro-4-chromanone is a chemical intermediate useful for preparing sorbinil, an aldose reductase inhibitor which can be used in clinical medicine for the control of the chronic complications of diabetes. (R)-6-Fluoro-4-ureidochroman-4-carboxylic acid and its racemic modification are by-products from the production of sorbinil from 6-fluoro-4-chromanone.
