Page/Page column 0030, (2014/08/19)
The present invention provides a convenient and industrially viable process for preparation of Zolmitriptan (I) having desired purity. The invention specifically relates to a method for isolating (S)-4-(4-hydrazinobenzyl)-1,3-oxazolidin-2-one hydrochloride (IIIa) of desired purity by separating the undesired inorganic side products such as stannous hydroxide by manipulation of pH at different stages and finally treating with N,N-dimethylamino butyraldehyde diethyl acetal in an acidic medium to provide Zolmitriptan (I) conforming to regulatory specifications.

In particular, zolmitriptan or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, which includes a) Preparation of the diazonium salt of the aniline hydrochloride (II); followed by reduction and acidification to give hydrazine (III); b) In situ Reaction of the hydrazine hydrochloride (III) with ?-keto-?-valerolactone, to give the hydrazone (IV); c) Fischer indole synthesis of the hydrazone (IV), to give the pyranoindolone of formula (V); d) Transesterification of the pyranoindolone (V) to provide the compound (VI), in which R means a straight or branched C1-C4 alkyl; e) Conversion of the hydroxyl group of the compound (VI) into dimethylamino to give the indolecarboxylate (VII), in which R means a straight or branched C1-C4 alkyl; f) Saponification of the 2-carboalkoxy group of the compound (VII), to provide indolecarboxylic acid (VIII); g) Decarboxylation of the indolecarboxylic acid (VIII), to provide zolmitriptan and, eventually, to provide a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

The design and synthesis of a series of novel 5-substituted tryptamines with pharmacological activity at 5-HT1D and other monoamine receptors is described.Structural modifications of N- and C-linked (prinicipally hydantoin) analogues at the 5-position were synthesized and their pharmacological activities were utilized to deduce significant steric and electrostatic requirements of the 5-HT1D and 5-HT2A receptor subtypes.Conformations of the active molecules were computed which, when overlaid, suggested a pharmacophore hypothesis which was consistent with the affinity and selectivity measured at 5-HT1D and 5-HT2A receptors.This pharmacophore is composed of a protonated amine site, an aromatic site, a hydrophobic pocket, and two hydrogen-bonding sites.A 'selectively site' was also identified which, if occupied, induced selectivity for 5-HT1D over 5-HT2A in this series of molecules.The development and use of the pharmacophore models in compound design is described.In addition, the physicochemical constraints of molecular size and hydrophobicity required for efficient oral absorption are discussed.Utilizing the pharmacophore model in conjuction with the physicochemical constraints of molecular size and log DpH7.4 led to the discovery of 311C90 (6), a new selective 5-HT1D agonist with good oral absorption and potential use in the treatment of migraine.
