DESCRIPTION:

BRIEF SUMMARY
FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to an improved process for preparing aromatic ring-fused cyclopentane derivatives. Preferably, the present invention relates to an improved process for preparing indane carboxylates and cyclopentano[b]pyridine derivatives. Advantageously, the present invention relates to an improved process for preparing (+)(1S, 2R, 3S)-3-[2-(2-hydroxyeth-1-yloxy)4-methoxyphenyl]-1-(3,4methylenedioxyphenyl )-5-(prop-1-yloxy)indane-2-carboxylic acid and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof and (+)(1S, 2R, 3S)-3-(2-carboxymethoxy4-methoxyphenyl)-1-(3,4methylenedioxyphenyl)-5-(pro p-1-yloxy)indane-2-carboxylic acid and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. Such compounds are described in International Application Number: PCT/US94/04603 International Publication Number WO 94/25013 published on Nov. 10, 1994 and in U.S. Pat. No. 5,389,620, as being useful as endothelin receptor antagonists. Also invented are novel intermediates useful in preparing these compounds.


BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Processes for the preparation of indane carboxylates, specifically (+)(1S, 2R, 3S)-3-[2-(2-hydroxyeth-1-yloxy)-4-methoxyphenyl]-1-(3,4-methylenedioxyphen yl)-5-(prop-1-yloxy)indane-2-carboxylic acid and (+)(1S, 2R, 3S)-3-(2-carboxymethoxy-4methoxyphenyl)-1-(3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl)-5-(pr op-1-yloxy)indane-2-carboxylic acid have previously been described. In particular a multistep process to prepare (+)(1S, 2R, 3S)-3-(2-carboxymethoxy-4-methoxyphenyl)-1-(3,4methylenedioxyphenyl)-5-(pr op-1-yloxy)indane-2-carboxylic acid in 6% overall yield (not including a racemic separation step) from methyl 3-(prop-1-yloxy)benzoylacetate and a multistep process to prepare (+)(1S, 2R, 3S)-3-[2-(2-hydroxyeth-1-yloxy)-4-methoxyphenyl]-1-(3,4-methylenedioxyphen yl)-5-(prop-1-yioxy)indane-2-carboxylic acid in 2% overall yield (not including a racemic separation step) from methyl 3-(prop-1-yloxy)benzoylacetate is reported in International Publication Number WO 94/25013, published Nov. 10, 1994. The syntheses of these molecules are complicated by the presence of three chiral centers in each compound.
Processes for the preparation of cyclopentano[b]pyridine derivatives have previously been described. In particular, multistep processes to prepare cyclopentano[b]pyridine derivatives, in low over all yield, are reported in U.S. Pat. No. 5,389,620.
Thus, there is a need in the art for an economical method to prepare indane carboxylates and cyclopentano[b]pyridine derivatives, specifically (+)(1S, 2R, 3S)-3-[2-(2-hydroxyeth-1-yloxy)-4-methoxyphenyl]-1-(3,4-methylenedioxyphen yl)-5-(prop-1-yloxy)indane-2-carboxylic acid and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof and (+)(1S, 2R, 3S)-3-(2-carboxymethoxy-4-methoxyphenyl)-1-(3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl)-5-(p rop-1-yloxy)indane-2-carboxylic acid and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof.
The numerous advantages of the presently invented process and intermediates will become apparent upon review of the following description.
