Abstract:
Optically active 1-(substituted phenyl)-2-nitro alcohol derivatives represented by general formula (1) and a process for preparing the same, and 1-(substituted phenyl)-2-amino alcohol derivatives represented by general formula (2) and a process for preparing the same from the optically active nitro alcohols represented by formula (1). For example, (R)-arbutamine and (R)-salmeterol, which are useful as a bronchodilator, can be synthesized from the compounds represented by formula (1) through the optically active amino alcohols represented by formula (2) and useful as an intermediate for pharmaceuticals.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a process of making fingolimod of formula (1), or an acid addition salt thereof comprising a step of reacting the compound of formula (11) and/or a compound of formula (14) or an acid addition salt thereof, in a solvent with hydrogen in a presence of a hydrogenation catalyst, preferably palladium catalyst, and optionally converting fingolimod of formula (1) into an acid addition salt, to compounds of formula (11) and (14), processes of making them and to their use in making fingolimod.
