DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The invention more particularly provides stereoisomers of the general formula Ia which on the aromatic ring of the tetrahydronaphthalene system carry substituents as R1 and R2 

    which are selected independently of one another from the group C1-C5 alkyl, C1-C5 alkoxy, COOR13, NR8R9, C1-C5 perfluoroalkyl, halogen, hydroxyl, cyano-, nitro,
    and independently thereof carry as R3 substituents which are selected from the group of hydrogen atom, a hydroxyl group, a halogen atom, a cyano group, an optionally substituted (C1-C3) alkyl group, a (C1-C3) alkoxy group, a (C1-C3) alkylthio group, a (C1-C3) perfluoroalkyl group.


The radical R4 is attached to the tetrahydronaphthalene system via the amine. If the radical R4 has two or more positions which are chemically possible for attachment to the ring system, then the present invention encompasses all of these possibilities.
The radical R4 is also encompassed by the present invention if it is hydrogenated at one or more sites.
Suitable substituents of the monocyclic or bicyclic heteroaryl groups (heterocyclic groups) R4, as have been defined above, and located at chemically appropriate positions, include, for example, hydroxyl, halogen atoms, especially fluorine and chlorine, (C1-C5) alkyl groups (which may themselves optionally be substituted by hydroxyl groups, (C1-C5) alkoxy groups or COOR13 groups, R13 being hydrogen or (C1-C5) alkyl), especially methyl, (C2-C5) alkenyl groups, fully or partly fluorinated (C1-C5) alkyl groups, especially CF3, CFH2 or C2F5, (C1-C5) alkoxy groups, especially methoxy and ethoxy, NR8R9 groups, especially NH2, N(CH3)2 or NH(CH3), cyano groups and also keto groups with are formed with a carbon atom of a ring of the heteroaryl group, and oxygen, which forms an N-oxide with a nitrogen atom of the ring optionally present.

As a result of the presence of centres of asymmetry, the stereoisomers of the general formula Ia of the invention may be present as the stereoisomers. The present invention provides all of the possible stereoisomers (e.g.: RRR, RRS, RSR, SRR, RSS, SRS, SSR, SSS), both as racemates and in enantiomerically pure form. The term stereoisomers also encompasses all of the possible diastereomers and regioisomers and tautomers (e.g. keto-enol tautomers) in which the stereoisomers of the invention may be present, and which are likewise provided by the invention.
Particularly preferred stereoisomers of the compound described are those (1,2,3,4)-tetrahydronaphthalenes which carry (1S, 2R, 4R) or (1S, 2R, 4S) as the absolute configuration on the 1-amino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalen-2-ol parent structure. Owing to the rules of IUPAC nomenclature, in the case of 1,6-dihydroxy substitution of the tetrahydronaphthalene, this corresponds to the (5S, 6R, 8R) configuration of the 5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphtalene-1,6-diol parent structure (see Examples) or to the (5S, 6R, 8S) configuration.
The stereoisomers of the invention may also be present in the form of salts with physiologically tolerated anions, as for example in the form of the hydrochloride, sulphate, nitrate, phosphate, pivalate, maleate, fumarate, tartrate, benzoate, mesylate, citrate or succinate.
The compounds of the invention are prepared

    a) by using methods known in the art to generate the open-chain precursors of the general formula (II), in which the radicals R1, R2, R3, R4 and R5 have the definitions specified in claim 1,






which then, either without further reagent or by addition or organic or inorganic acids or Lewis acids, under temperatures in the range from −70° C. to +80° C. (preferably in the range from −30° C. to +80° C.), are cyclized and rearranged to give the compounds of the general formula (III). A catalytic hydrogenation, which can optionally be carried out diastereoselectively, then yields compounds of the general formula (Ib) in which R6 is an ethyl group.

    b) by using methods known in the art to convert prepared styrenes of the general formula (IV), by means of an optionally enantioselectively conducted ene reaction with chiral Lewis acids, into the compounds of the general formula (V). Chiral Lewis acids which can be used for the enantioselective generation of the quaternary alcohol function include the following: (R)- or (S)-SEGPHOS-PdCl2 (Mikami et al. Tetrah. Asymm. 2004, 15, 3885-89), (R)- or (S)-BINOL-Ti(OiPr)2 (Ding et al. Tetrah. Lett. 2004, 45, 2009-12), (R)- or (S)-Cu tBuBOX,), (R)- or (S)-Cu iPrBOX, (R)- or (S)-Cu PhBOX, (R)- or (S)-Cu AdaBOX (Evans et al. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2000, 122, 7936-43), (R)- or (S)-tPr-pybox Yb(OTf)3, (R)- or (S)-tBu-pybox Yb(OTf)3, (R)- or (S)-Ph-pybox Yb(OTf)3 (Qian et al. Tetrah. Asymm. 2000, 11, 2347-57). By reduction, hydrogenation and amination, in accordance with methods known to the skilled person, the imine (VI) is generated,






which then, either without further reagent or by addition of organic or inorganic acids or Lewis acids, under temperatures in the range from −70° C. to +80° C. (preferably in the range from −30° C. to +80° C.), is cyclized to give the compounds of the general formula (Ia). The radicals R1, R2, R3, R4, R5 and R6, defined in general terms in the formulae set out above, have the definitions specified in claim 1.

The present invention accordingly also provides a method of preparing the stereoisomers of the general formula (Ia) which is characterized in that imines of the general formula (VI) or (II), either without further reagent, in a solvent or concentrated organic acids, or by addition of organic or inorganic acids or Lewis acids, under temperatures in the range from −70° C. to +80° C. (preferably in the range from −30° C. to +80° C.), are cyclized to give the stereoisomers of the general formula (Ia) or (III), and also their direct precursors of the formula (V).
The new imines (IV) for the cyclization are likewise provided by the present invention, particularly those which have been disclosed by the examples.
A particularly preferred process is the method of preparing compounds of the general formula (V) in which, as catalysts of the enantioselective ene reaction, use is made of [Cu(S,S)bis(tert-butyloxazoline](SbF6)2 or [Cu(R,R)bis(tert-butyloxazoline](SbF6)2, and enantiomeric excesses of up to 95% are attained, which through crystallization may be increased still further.
Enantiomerically pure compounds of the formula (V) can then be converted into the enantiomerically pure compounds of the formula (VI) by chromatographic separation methods on silica gel at the stage of the hydrogenated aldehyde or of the imine.
Diastereoselective hydrogenation methods can be used alternatively to give the enantiomerically pure compound of the formula (VI).
Suitable catalysts for the abovementioned catalytic hydrogenations include the following:

    1. palladium on carbon
    2. Raney nickel
    3. rhodium catalysts with chiral ligands, as described in the following publications:

The invention accordingly further provides enantiomerically pure esters of the formula (VII),




which can be obtained by diastereoselective hydrogenation methods or diastereomer separations.

The binding of the substances to the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) and further steroid hormone receptors (mineral corticoid receptor (MR), progesterone receptor (PR) and androgen receptor (AR)) is examined with the aid of recombinantly prepared receptors. Cytosol preparations of Sf9 cells which had been infected with recombinant baculoviruses that code for the GR are used for the binding studies. Compared with the reference substance [3H]-dexamethasone, the substances show a high affinity for the GR.
An essential molecular mechanism for the antiinflammatory effect of glucocorticoids is considered to be the GR-mediated inhibition of the transcription of cytokines, adhesion molecules, enzymes and other pro-inflammatory factors. This inhibition is brought about by interaction of the GR with other transcription factors, e.g. AP-1 and NF-kappa-B (for a review see Cato A C B and Wade E, BioEssays 18, 371-378 1996).
The stereoisomers of the general formula Ia according to the invention inhibit the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-initiated secretion of the cytokine IL-8 in the human THP-1 monocyte cell line.
The antiinflammatory effect of the stereoisomers of the general formula Ia was tested in an animal experiment by testing in the croton oil-induced inflammation in the rat and mouse (J. Exp. Med. (1995), 182, 99-108). For this purpose, croton oil in ethanolic solution was applied topically to the animals' ears. The test substances were administered likewise topically, or systemically, at the same time as, or two hours before, the croton oil. After 16-24 hours, the ear weight was measured as a measure of the inflammatory edema, the peroxidase activity was measured as a measure of the inward migration of granulocytes, and the elastase activity was measured as a measure of the inward migration of neutrophilic granulocytes. In this test, the stereoisomers of the general formula Ia, both after topical administration and after systemic administration, inhibit the three abovementioned parameters of inflammation.
One of the commonest unwanted effects of a glucocorticoid therapy is the so-called “steroid diabetes” [cf. Hatz, H J, Glucocorticoide: Immunologische Grundlagen, Pharmakologie und Therapierichtlinien, Wissenschaftliche Verlagsgesellschaft mbH, Stuttgart, 1998]. The cause of this is stimulation of gluconeogenesis in the liver by induction of the enzymes responsible therefor and by free amino acids resulting from the breakdown of proteins (catabolic effect of the glucocorticoids). A key enzyme in catabolic metabolism in the liver is tyrosine aminotransferase (TAT). The activity of this enzyme can be determined by photometry on liver homogenates and represents a good measure of the unwanted metabolic effects of glucocorticoids. To measure the TAT induction, the animals are sacrificed 8 hours after administration of the test substances, the livers are removed, and the TAT activity in the homogenate is measured. In this test, the stereoisomers of the general formula, in doses in which they have antiinflammatory activity, induce tyrosine aminotransferase to only a small extent or not at all.
Owing to their antiinflammatory and additional antiallergic, immunosuppressive and antiproliferative effect, the stereoisomers of the invention of the general formula Ia can be used as medicaments for the treatment or prophylaxis of the following pathological states in mammalian animals and humans: in this connection, the term “DISORDER” stands for the following indications:

In addition, the stereoisomers of the invention of the general formula Ia can be employed for the therapy and prophylaxis of further pathological states which are not mentioned above and for which synthetic glucocorticoids are currently used (concerning this, see Hatz, H J, Glucocorticoide: Immunologische Grundlagen, Pharmakologie und Therapierichtlinien, Wissenschaftliche Verlagsgesellschaft mbH, Stuttgart, 1998).
All the aforementioned indications (i) to (xx) are described in detail in Hatz, H J, Glucocorticoide: Immunologische Grundlagen, Pharmakologie und Therapierichtlinien, Wissenschaftliche Verlagsgesellschaft mbH, Stuttgart, 1998.
The suitable dose for the therapeutic effects in the abovementioned pathological states varies and depends for example on the potency of the compound of the general formula Ia, the host, the mode of administration and the nature and severity of the conditions to be treated, and the use as prophylactic or therapeutic agent.
The invention provides for the use of the claimed compounds/stereoisomers for producing medicaments.
The invention further provides

    (i) the use of one of the stereoisomers of the invention of formula Ia or mixtures thereof for producing a medicament for treating a DISORDER;
    (ii) a method of treating a DISORDER that comprises administering a stereoisomer of the invention of the formula Ia, the amount being sufficient to suppress the disorder;
    (iii) a pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of a DISORDER which treatment comprises one of the stereoisomers of the invention or mixtures thereof and at least one pharmaceutical excipient and/or carrier.


Satisfactory results in animals are generally to be expected when the daily doses include a range from 1 μg to 100 000 μg of the compound of the invention per kg of body weight. For larger mammals, for example humans, a recommended daily dose is in the range from 1 μg to 100 000 μg per kg of body weight. A dose of 10 to 30 000 μg per kg of body weight is preferred, and a dose of 10 to 10 000 μg per kg of body weight is more preferred.
For example, this dose is advantageously administered more than once a day. For the treatment of acute shock (e.g. anaphylactic shock) it is possible to give single doses which are well above the abovementioned doses.
The pharmaceutical products based on the novel compounds are formulated in a manner known per se by processing the active ingredient with the carrier substances, fillers, disintegration modifiers, binders, humectants, lubricants, absorbents, diluents, masking flavours, colourants etc. which are in use in pharmaceutical technology, and converting the formulation into the desired administration form. Reference should be made in this connection to Remington's Pharmaceutical Science, 15th ed. Mack Publishing Company, East Pennsylvania (1980).
Particularly suitable for oral administration are plain tablets, coated tablets, capsules, pills, powders, granules, pastilles, suspensions, emulsions or solutions.
Preparations for injection and infusion are possible for parenteral administration.
Appropriately prepared crystal suspensions can be used for intraarticular injection.
Aqueous and oily solutions or suspensions and corresponding depot preparations can be used for intramuscular injection.
The novel compounds can be used for rectal administration in the form of suppositories, capsules, solutions (e.g. in the form of enemas) and ointments both for systemic and for local therapy.
The novel compounds can be used in the form of aerosols and inhalations for their pulmonary administration.
For local use on eyes, the external auditory canal, middle ear, nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses, the novel compounds can be used as drops, ointments, and tinctures in appropriate pharmaceutical preparations.
Formulations possible for topical application are gels, ointments, greasy ointments, creams, pastes, dusting powders, lotions and tinctures. The dosage of the compounds of the general formula Ia in these preparations should be 0.01%-20% in order to achieve an adequate pharmacological effect.
The invention likewise encompasses the compounds of the invention of the general formula Ia as an active therapeutic ingredient. The invention further encompasses the compounds of the invention of the general formula Ia as an active therapeutic ingredient together with pharmaceutically tolerated and acceptable excipients and carriers.
The invention likewise encompasses a pharmaceutical composition which comprises one of the pharmaceutically active compounds of the invention or mixture thereof or a pharmaceutically tolerated salt thereof and a pharmaceutically tolerated salt or pharmaceutically tolerated excipients and carriers.
The invention further provides combination therapies or combined compositions in which a glucocorticoid receptor (GR) agonist of the formula (Ia) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a pharmaceutical composition comprising a GR agonist of the formula (Ia) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is administered either simultaneously (where appropriate in the same composition) or successively together with one or more medicaments for the treatment of one of the pathological states mentioned above. For the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), asthma or allergic rhinitis, for example, it is possible to combine a GR agonist of the present invention with one or more medicaments for the treatment of such a condition. Where such a combination is administered by inhalation, the medicament to be combined can be selected from the following list:

    
    
        a PDE4 inhibitor including an inhibitor of the PDE4D isoform;
        a selective β.sub2.adrenoceptor agonist such as, for example, metaproterenol, isoproterenol, isoprenaline, albuterol, salbutamol, formoterol, salmeterol, terbutaline, orciprenaline, bitolterol mesylate, pirbuterol or indacaterol;
        a muscarine receptor antagonist (for example an M1, M2 or M3 antagonist, such as, for example, a selective M3 antagonist) such as, for example, ipratropium bromide, tiotropium bromide, oxitropium bromide, pirenzepine or telenzepine;
        a modulator of chemokine receptor function (such as, for example, a CCR1 receptor antagonist); or
        an inhibitor of p38 kinase function.
    
    


For another aspect of the present invention, a combination of this kind with a GR agonist of the formula Ia or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is employed for the treatment of COPD, asthma or allergic rhinitis and can be administered by inhalation or orally in combination with xanthine (such as, for example, aminophylline or theophylline), which can likewise be administered by inhalation or orally.
EXPERIMENTAL SECTION
Example 1




(5α,6α,8β-2-Fluoro-8-methyl-5-[(2-methylquinolin-5-yl)amino]-6-(trifluoromethyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalene-1,6-diol
4-(3-Fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)-2-hydroxy-2-(trifluoromethyl)pentanal
41.8 g (639 mmol) of zinc dust and 874 mg (3.1 mmol) of lead(II) chloride are suspended in 557 ml of THF and at room temperature 39 ml (556 mmol) of dibromomethane are added. The mixture is stirred for a further 30 minutes and at 0° C. 68.8 ml (68.8 mmol) of a 1 M titanium(IV) chloride solution in dichloromethane are added dropwise. The cooling bath is removed and after 30 minutes at room temperature 13.6 g (80.8 mmol) of 1-(3-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)ethan-1-one (Chem. Commun. 2000, 14, 1323-4) in 139 ml of THF are added dropwise. The reaction mixture is stirred for a further 1.5 hours at room temperature. It is diluted with diethyl ether and cautiously poured onto a mixture of 4 M hydrochloric acid and ice. The phases are separated and subjected to extraction with diethyl ether, the extracts are washed with water and dried over sodium sulphate and the solvent is removed. The crude product is purified by column chromatography on silica gel (hexane/isopropyl ether 0-5%) to give 9.5 g of 2-fluoro-6-(1-methyleneethyl)anisole.
1.56 g (5.7 mmol) of 1,1′-bi-2-naphthol are admixed with 5.7 ml (2.85 mmol) of a 0.5 M titanium tetraisopropoxide solution in toluene and the red solution is stirred for 2 hours at room temperature. 9.5 g (57.2 mmol) of 2-fluoro-6-(1-methyleneethyl)anisole and 12.5 ml (95 mmol) of ethyl trifluoropyruvate are added and the mixture is heated at 140° C. for 18 hours. After cooling it is immediately purified by column chromatography on silica gel (hexane/ethyl acetate 0-5%) to give 8.9 g of ethyl 4-(3-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)-2-hydroxy-2-(trifluoromethyl)pent-4-enoate. 8.9 g (26.5 mmol) of ethyl 4-(3-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)-2-hydroxy-2-(trifluoromethyl)pent-4-enoate are dissolved in 200 ml of methanol and 2 ml of acetic acid, and 890 mg of palladium on carbon (10%) are added. The suspension is shaken for 1.5 hours under a hydrogen atmosphere under atmospheric pressure until the hydrogen uptake is 560 ml. The mixture is filtered through Celite, the filter bed being rinsed thoroughly with ethyl acetate. Removal of the solvent gives 8.6 g of ethyl 4-(3-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)-2-hydroxy-2-(trifluoromethyl)pentanoate. 8.6 g (25.4 mmol) of ethyl 4-(3-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)-2-hydroxy-2-(trifluoromethyl)-pentanoate in 350 ml of diethyl ether are cooled to −30° C. and over 15 minutes 1.7 g (44.7 mmol) of lithium aluminum hydride in solid form are added in portions. The mixture is stirred for 1.5 hours, in the course of which the temperature climbs to −15° C., followed by dropwise addition in succession of ethyl acetate and water and by a further hour of stirring until a readily filterable precipitate has formed. The suspension is filtered through Celite, the filter bed being thoroughly rinsed with ethyl acetate. The phases of the filtrate are separated and extraction is carried out again with ethyl acetate. The extracts are washed with saturated sodium chloride solution and dried over sodium sulphate and the solvent is removed in vacuo. Separation by column chromatography on silica gel (hexane/diisopropyl ether 0-15%) yields 3.1 g of (2R*,4R*)-4-(3-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)-2-hydroxy-2-(trifluoromethyl)pentanal

After the mixture is cooled, it is poured into water, with vigorous stirring to follow. The suspension is filtered through Celite, the filter bed being rinsed thoroughly with ethyl acetate. The phases of the filtrate are separated and extraction is carried out again using ethyl acetate. The extracts are dried over sodium sulphate and the solvent is removed in vacuo to give 230 mg of (2R*,4R*)-4-(3-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)-1-[(2-methylquinolin-5-yl)imino]-2-(trifluoromethyl)pentan-2-ol as a crude product. 230 mg of the crude imine in 12 ml of CH2Cl2 are admixed dropwise at −30° C. with 6 ml (6 mmol) of a 1 M boron tribromide solution. The batch is allowed to warm to room temperature and is stirred for 2 hours. It is admixed with saturated NaHCO3 solution, the phases are separated, the aqueous phase is extracted with CH2Cl2 and the combined organic phases are dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated in vacuo.

4-(3-Fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)-2-hydroxy-2-(trifluoromethyl)hexanal
29.04 g of (3-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)boronic acid, 25 g of 2-bromo-1-butene and tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium are dissolved in 174 ml of toluene and 17.4 ml of 1-propanol. The mixture is heated at 120° C. in a closed vessel over 5 hours and, after cooling, is introduced into water. The aqueous phase is extracted three times with diethyl ether and the combined organic phases are washed with saturated sodium chloride solution and dried over Na2SO4. Following careful removal of the solvent, the residue is purified by column chromatography on silica gel (hexane/diethyl ether). This gives 16.6 g (49.7%) of 6-(but-1-en-2-yl)-2-fluoroanisole. 4.0 g (22.2 mmol) of 6-(but-1-en-2-yl)-2-fluoroanisole and 2.8 g of molecular sieve in 5.85 ml (44.4 mmol) of ethyl trifluoropyruvate are admixed dropwise over 30 minutes with 1005 mg (1.1 mmol) of [Cu(S,S)-bisphenyloxazoline)(H2O)2]((SbF6)2, in 56 ml of dichloromethane. The reaction mixture is stirred at 0° C. for 16 hours and the reaction mixture is purified by means of column chromatography on silica gel (hexane/ethyl acetate). This gives 7.2 g (92.6%) of the enantiomerically enriched ethyl (R)-4-(3-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)-2-hydroxy-2-(trifluoromethyl)-hex-4-enoate as an E/Z mixture (E/Z ratio 2:1, E: about 9% ee, Z: about 58% ee). 9.3 g (26.6 mmol) of ethyl (E/Z)-4-(3-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)-2-hydroxy-2-(trifluoromethyl)-hex-4-enoate are dissolved in 300 ml of diethyl ether under argon and the solution is cooled to −15° C. 2.02 g of lithium aluminum hydride are added in portions as a solid over 30 minutes and the mixture is stirred for a further hour, in the course of which the temperature climbs to −5° C. After a further 30 minutes at −5° C., 4 ml of ethyl acetate are added dropwise and the mixture is stirred for a further 10 minutes. It is poured onto a mixture of ice and saturated ammonium chloride solution and stirred vigorously. The phases are separated and extraction is carried out repeatedly with ethyl acetate and diethyl ether. The combined organic extracts are washed with saturated sodium chloride solution and dried over Na2SO4. The solvent is removed by distillation and the residue is purified by column chromatography on silica gel (hexane/ethyl acetate). This gives 5.9 g (72.6%) of (E/Z)-4-(3-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)-2-hydroxy-2-trifluoromethylhex-4-enal and 2.0 g of (E/Z)-4-(3-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)-2-trifluoromethyl-hex-4-ene-1,2-diol.
1.51 g (4.9 mmol) of (E/Z)-4-(3-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)-2-hydroxy-2-(trifluoromethyl)hex-4-enal are dissolved in 40 ml of methanol and 1.2 ml of acetic acid, and 80 mg of palladium on carbon (10%) are added. The suspension is shaken under a hydrogen atmosphere at atmospheric pressure until reaction is complete. The mixture is filtered through Celite, the filter bed being rinsed thoroughly with ethyl acetate. Removal of the solvent and separation by column chromatography on silica gel (hexane/diisopropyl ether 10-25%) give 530 mg of enantiomerically enriched (2R*,4R*)-4-(3-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)-2-hydroxy-2-(trifluoromethyl)hexanal

After cooling, the mixture is poured into water and stirred vigorously. The suspension is filtered through Celite, the filter bed being rinsed thoroughly with ethyl acetate. The phases of the filtrate are separated and extraction is carried out again with ethyl acetate. The extracts are dried over sodium sulphate and the solvent is removed in vacuo to give 178 mg of (2R*,4R*)-4-(3-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)-1-[(2-methylquinazolin-5-yl)imino]-2-(trifluoromethyl)hexan-2-ol as a crude product. 178 mg of crude imine in 20 ml of CH2Cl2 are admixed dropwise at −20° C. with 1.6 ml (1.6 mmol) of a 1 M boron tribromide solution. The mixture is allowed to warm to room temperature and is stirred for 1.5 hours. It is poured into saturated NaHCO3 solution, the phases are separated, the aqueous phase is extracted with CH2Cl2 and the combined organic phases are dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated in vacuo.

The reaction mixture is stirred at 0° C. for 16 hours and the reaction mixture is purified by means of column chromatography on silica gel (hexane/ethyl acetate). This gives 7.2 g (%) of ethyl (R)-4-(3-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)-2-hydroxy-2-(trifluoromethyl)-hex-4-enoate with an enantiomeric excess of greater than 90% in the form of an E/Z mixture. In the same way as in Example 29, the resulting unsaturated ester is converted by means of lithium aluminum hydride and hydrogen under palladium catalysis into the virtually enantiomerically pure aldehydes.

Ethyl 3-[1-(3-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)cyclopropyl]-2-oxopropionate
26 g (180 mmol) of 2,6-difluoroanisole and 14.6 ml (198 mmol) of cyclopropyl cyanide in 500 ml of toluene are admixed dropwise at 0° C. over 40 min with 396 ml of a 0.5 molar (198 mmol) solution of bis(trimethylsilyl)potassium amide in toluene. The mixture is stirred at room temperature for 18 hours and admixed with water and 1M sulphuric acid, with ice cooling.
The organic phase is separated off and the aqueous phase is extracted repeatedly with ethyl acetate. The extracts are washed with brine, dried with sodium sulphate and concentrated in vacuo. Purification by chromatography on silica gel (hexane/ethyl acetate 10%-20%) gives 12.7 g of 1-(3-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)cyclopropylnitrile. 12.7 g (66.1 mmol) of the nitrile are admixed slowly in toluene at −78° C. with 82.7 ml (99.2 mmol) of diisobutylaluminium hydride solution (20% in toluene) and after 3 h at −78° C. 11.1 ml of isopropanol are added dropwise. The mixture is allowed to warm to −5° C. and 150 ml of 10% strength aqueous tartaric acid solution are added. Dilution with ether is followed by vigorous stirring; the organic phase is separated off and the aqueous phase is extracted repeatedly with ethyl acetate. The extracts are washed with brine, dried with sodium sulphate and concentrated in vacuo. This gives 11.8 g of aldehyde as a yellow oil. A solution of 16.3 g (60.7 mmol) of ethyl 2-diethylphosphono-2-ethoxyacetate in 60 ml of tetrahydrofuran is admixed under ice cooling over the course of 20 minutes with 33.4 ml (66.8 mmol) of a 2 M solution of lithium diisopropylamide in tetrahydrofuran-heptane-toluene and the mixture is stirred at 0° C. for 30 minutes.

After three and a half hours of stirring at 5° C., the batch is poured onto a mixture of saturated sodium hydrogen carbonate solution and ice, diluted with 100 ml of ethyl acetate and then stirred vigorously for 20 minutes. The ethyl acetate phase is separated off and the aqueous phase is extracted a further time with ethyl acetate (50 ml). The combined organic extracts are washed with water (20 ml) and brine (20 ml) and dried and the solvent is removed on a rotary evaporator. Repeated chromatography (Flashmaster, different eluent systems) produces 31.2 mg (5.6%) of the apolar diastereomer and 74.9 mg (13.3%) of the polar diastereomer (in each case as racemates). The latter is described in Examples 82A and 82B.
The apolar diastereomer (23.9 mg) is separated into its enantiomers by means of chiral HPLC (Chiralcel OD-H 5μ, eluent: hexane/ethanol). This gives 8.4 mg (35.2%) of the (−)-enantiomer ([α]D=−6.4°, MeOH) and 10.5 mg (43.9%) of the (+)-enantiomer ([α]D=+8.80, MeOH). No conclusion can of course be drawn concerning the absolute stereochemistry.

Following addition of dimethyl sulphoxide (54.8 ml) and triethylamine (11.1 ml) the SO3/pyridine complex (6.37 g, 40 mmol) is added in portions over the course of 40 minutes. After four-hour stirring at room temperature, the batch is poured onto a mixture of saturated NH4Cl solution and ice.
