Abstract:
A process for producing a 7-isoindolinequinolonecarboxylic acid derivative or its salt, characterized in that the process for producing a compound represented by the general formula [1]: wherein R1 represents a hydrogen atom or a carboxyl-protecting group; R2 represents a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkyl, aryl or heterocyclic group; R3 represents at least one group selected from hydrogen atom, halogen atoms, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, alkoxy or alkylthio groups, nitro group, cyano group, acyl groups, protected or unprotected hydroxyl groups and protected or unprotected or substituted or unsubstituted amino groups; R4 represents at least one group selected from hydrogen atom, halogen atom, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkyl, aralkyl, aryl, alkoxy or alkylthio groups, protected or unprotected hydroxyl or imino groups, protected or unprotected or substituted or unsubstituted amino groups, alkylidene groups, oxo group and groups each forming a cycloalkane ring together with the carbon atom to which R4 bonds; R5 represents a hydrogen atom, an amino-protecting group, a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, cycloalkyl, alkylsulfonyl, arylsulfonyl, acyl or aryl group; R6 represents a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, alkoxy or alkylthio group, a protected or unprotected hydroxyl or amino group or a nitro group; and A represents CH or Câ€”R7 in which R7 represents a halogen atom, a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, alkoxy or alkylthio group or a protected or unprotected hydroxyl group, is the following:(ii) A process characterized by reacting, in the presence of a palladium catalyst selected from metallic palladium, palladium salts and palladium complexes, a 5-halogenoisoindoline derivative represented by the following general formula [4] or its salt: wherein R3, R4 and R5 have the same meanings as mentioned above; and X1 represents a halogen atom, with a dialkoxyborane represented by the general formula [5a]: wherein Z represents an alkylene group, or an alkoxydiborane represented by the general formula [5b]: wherein Z has the same meaning as mentioned above, to form an isoindoline-5-boronic acid derivative represented by the following general formula [2a] or its salt: wherein R3, R4, R5 and Z have the same meanings as mentioned above; and thereafter, reacting the isoindoline-5-boronic acid derivative or its salt without isolation with a 7-leaving group-substituted quinolonecarboxylic acid represented by the following general formula [3] or its salt: wherein R1, R2, R6, A and X2 have the same meanings as mentioned above.
