Improved Synthesis and Isolation of Bedaquiline.


ABSTRACT: Bedaquiline (BDQ) is the most critical pharmaceutical in the world for treating multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Despite it being highly effective, BDQ asymmetric synthesis remains a challenge. Herein, the influence of chiral bases, namely, bis(1-phenylethyl)amine, bisoxazoline, and sparteine on the diastereoselective lithiation reaction to obtain BDQ was investigated. The highest diastereoselective ratio (dr) emerged as 90:10 from the (+)-bis[(R)-1-phenylethyl] lithium amide. This is a significant improvement from the 50:50 dr achieved from the commercial synthesis. Thereafter, the desired (90:10 RS, SR) diastereomeric mixture was easily isolated via a gravity column and subjected to chiral supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) to access the desired enantiomer (1R, 2S)-BDQ. The advantages of this procedure are enhanced diastereoselection as well as a greener, faster way to achieve excellent enantioseparation (up to 1.0 g scale).
