Furthermore, the present invention relates to novel amino alcohol derivatives which are useful in preparing the 2-acylamino alcohol derivatives. 
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     A 2-acylamino alcohol derivative, 2-decanoylamino-3-morpholino-1-phenyl-1-propanol (hereinafter referred to as “PDMP”), represented by the following formula:                           
     has an activity to control biosynthesis of glycolipids, but the activity is greatly different among its four stereoisomers. Therefore, separation of its optically active isomers is carried out by a method in which decanoylaminoacetophenone is condensed with morpholine by Mannich reaction and then reduced with sodium borohydride to obtain PDMP as a mixture of four stereoisomers, resolution of the diastereomers is effected by a crystallization method and then optical resolution of the racemic compounds is effected by a crystallization method ( J.

     In the present invention, the term “lower” in the “lower alkyl”, “lower alkoxyl” and the like means that the carbon number thereof is from 1 to 6. 
     Also, the term “alkylene group which may be discontinued by an oxygen atom” means that at least two alkylene groups are linked to each other via at least one oxygen atom. 
     PDMP and its analogues, have been discovered as glycolipid biosynthesis controlling substances are interesting compounds which also have physiological functions such as antiviral, antitumor, metastasis inhibition, nerve cell growth enhancing and the like. Structurally, they have 2-amino alcohol as the basic nucleus and at least two asymmetric carbon atoms in the molecule. Since functions of four stereoisomers obtained therefrom are different from each other, it is necessary to develop a means for the stereoselective synthesis of these four isomers in studying relationship between structure and function of PDMP and its analogues and developing high active analogues. 
     As described above, one aspect of the present invention relates to a process for stereoselectively synthesizing the four stereoisomers of PDMP and its analogues using, as the main starting material, a 2-aminopropanediol derivative which has two asymmetric carbon atoms in its molecule and whose amino group is protected with a urethane type protecting group. This process is based on the following new findings. 
     That is, the stereoselective synthesis of PDMP and its analogues has been achieved by 1) using a chiral compound having two asymmetric carbon atoms in its molecule as the starting material, 2) introducing a leaving group (a mesyl group or the like) into only primary hydroxyl group among primary and secondary hydroxyl groups, and then substituting the leaving group with a primary or secondary amine and 3) constructing all of the reaction steps as keeping the stereochemistry. 
     The present invention will be described according to the following synthetic steps.                           
     According to the process of the present invention, an optically active aminopropanol derivative represented by formula (1) is used as the starting material. In formula (1), R 1  is an alkyl group, a cycloalkyl group or an aryl group having from 6 to 15 carbon atoms such as phenyl or the like, preferably a phenyl group which may be substituted with 1 to 3 substituents which are the same or different and are selected from a lower alkyl group, a lower alkoxyl group, a hydroxyl group, a hydroxyl-lower-alkyl group and a nitro group (e.g., a phenyl group, a dimethoxyphenyl group, a dihydroxyphenyl group), and more preferably a phenyl group. P 1  is an alkyl group having from 3 to 18 carbon atoms such as a decyl group or an amino-protecting group (e.g., a benzyloxycarbonyl group which may be substituted with a nitro group, a halogen atom, a lower alkoxyl group, a (lower alkoxyl)phenylazo group or a phenylazo group; an alkoxycarbonyl group containing a straight, branched or cyclic alkyl group having from 1 to 15 carbon atoms which may be substituted with a fluorenyl group or a methylsulfonyl group; or the like). Specific examples thereof include benzyloxycarbonyl groups which may have a substituent(s) (e.g., a benzyloxycarbonyl group, a p-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl group, a p-bromobenzyloxycarbonyl group, a p-methoxybenzyloxycarbonyl group, a p-methoxyphenylazobenzyloxycarbonyl group and the like), alkoxycarbonyl groups which may have a substituent(s) (e.g., a t-butoxycarbonyl group, a cyclopentyloxycarbonyl group, an octyloxycarbonyl group, a 9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl group, a methylsulfonylethoxycarbonyl group and the like) and amino-protecting groups such as a benzenesulfonyl group and the like, Y represents a leaving group such as a methanesulfonyl (mesyl) group, a trihalogenomethanesulfonyl group (e.g., a trifluoromethanesulfonyl group), a p-toluenesulfonyl group, a benzenesulfonyl group, a p-bromobenzenesulfonyl group or the like. 
     The aminopropanol derivatives represented by formula (1) can be obtained by treating the optically active N-protected-2-aminopropanediol shown in the above synthesis steps as “compound (a)” with methanesulfonyl chloride (Ms-Cl) or the like in a solvent (e.g., pyridine or the like) or in an anhydrous solvent (e.g., dichloromethane or the like) in the presence of pyridine at a range between an ice-cooled temperature and room temperature to effect methanesulfonylation (mesylation) of only primary hydroxyl group of the diol (step 1). The compound represented by formula (2) can be prepared by treating the product obtained in, step 1 after isolation, or without isolation in some cases, with an amine represented by formula R 2 H in an organic solvent (e.g., ethyl alcohol, N,N-dimethylformamide or the like) (step 2). In the amine represented by formula R 2 H, R 2  represents a group represented by formula (I) to (VI) described above and in formula (I) to (VI), carbon numbers of a cycloalkyl group or a hydroxycycloalkyl group are from 3 to 8 and those of an aralkyl group are from 6 to 20. Preferably, R 2  is a morpholino group, a (lower alkyl)amino group, a (morpholino-lower alkyl)amino group, a cycloalkylamino group which may be substituted with a hydroxyl group, a pyrrolidino group which may be substituted with a hydroxyl group or a hydroxyl-lower-alkyl group, a piperazino group which may be substituted with a lower alkyl group, a bis(hydroxyl-lower-alkyl)amino group or a piperidino group which may be substituted with a hydroxyl group or a hydroxyl-lower-alkyl group, and more preferably a group or a pyrrolidino group. 
     In step 3, the alkyl group or amino protecting group which protects the amino group is removed by a usual method such as catalytic reduction, acid treatment, base treatment or the like to obtain the compound represented by formula (3), Next, the amino group thus formed is acylated with a carboxylic acid represented by formula R 11 COOH or a reactive derivative thereof such as an acid halide or acid anhydride of a carboxylic acid or the like to obtain the 2-acylamino alcohol derivative represented by formula (4) (step 4). In the above formula R 11 COOH, R 11  is an alkyl or alkenyl group having from 3 to 18 carbon atoms which may have a hydroxyl group at the 2- or 3-position. When the acyl group (R 11 CO—) to be introduced has 10 carbon atoms, decanoyl chloride or decanoic anhydride is used as the above-described acylating agent. Alternatively, the objective 2-acylamino alcohol derivative represented by formula (4) can be obtained by reacting the compound represented by formula (3) with a carboxylic acid (R 11 COOH) having from 8 to 16 carbon atoms and a condensing agent usually used in an amido bonding reaction (step 4). Examples of the carboxylic acid include fatty acids and hydroxyl-substituted fatty acids such as octanoic acid, 2-hydroxyoctanoic acid, decanoic acid, 2-hydroxydecanoic acid, dodecanoic acid, 2-hydroxydodecanoic acid, myristic acid, 2-hydroxymyristic acid, palmitic acid, 2-hydroxypalmitic acid and the like. Examples of the condensing agent include dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, water-soluble carbodiimide and the like. Examples of the water-soluble carbodiimide include 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC). 
     Examples of the amino alcohol derivatives represented by formula (2) include 
     (a) derivative wherein R 1  is an alkyl group or a cycloalkyl group, or a phenyl group which may be substituted with from 1 to 3 substituents which are the same or different and are selected from a lower alkyl group, a lower alkoxyl group, a hydroxyl group, a hydroxyl-lower-alkyl group and a nitro group; and P 1  is an alkyl group having from 3 to 18 carbon atoms or an amino-protecting group selected from (i) a benzyloxycarbonyl group which may be substituted with a nitro group, a halogen atom, a lower alkoxyl group, a (lower alkoxyl)phenylazo group or a phenylazo group and (ii) an alkoxycarbonyl group containing a straight, branched or cyclic alkyl group which may be substituted with a fluorenyl group or a methylsulfonyl group, 
     (b) derivatives wherein R 1  is an alkyl group having from 6 to 15 carbon atoms, a cyclohexyl group or a phenyl group; P 1  is a decyl group or an amino-protecting group selected from a benzyloxycarbonyl group, a t-butoxycarbonyl group and an octyloxycarbonyl group; and R 2  is an amino group selected from a morpholino group, a (lower alkyl)amino group, a (morpholino-lower alkyl)amino group, a cycloalkylamino group which may be substituted with a hydroxyl group, a pyrrolidino group which may be substituted with a hydroxyl group- or a hydroxyl-lower-alkyl group, a piperazino group which may be substituted with a lower alkyl group, a bis(hydroxyl-lower-alkyl) amino group and a piperidino group which may be substituted with a hydroxyl group or a hydroxyl-lower-alkyl group, 
     (c) derivatives wherein R 1  is a phenyl group; P 1  is a benzyloxycarbonyl group; and R 2  is a morpholino group, a pyrrolidino group, a hydroxypyrrolidino group, hydroxypiperidino group, a an N-methylpiperazino group, a diethanolamino group or a hydroxycyclohexylamino group; and wherein their configuration is (1S,2S), and 
     (d) derivatives wherein R 1  is a phenyl group; P 1  is a benzyloxycarbonyl group; and R 2  is a morpholino group, a pyrrolidino group, a piperidino group, a cyclohexylamino group or a cyclopentylamino group; and wherein their configuration is (1R,2R). 
     Examples of the amino alcohol derivatives represented by formula (3) include derivatives wherein R 1  is an alkyl group having from 6 to 15 carbon atoms, a cyclohexyl group or a phenyl group; and R 2  is a morpholino group, a (lower alkyl)amino group, a (morpholino-lower alkyl)amino group, a cycloalkylamino group which may be substituted with a hydroxyl group, a pyrrolidino group which may be substituted with a hydroxyl group or a hydroxyl-lower-alkyl group, a piperazino group which may be substituted with a lower alkyl group, a bis(hydroxyl-lower-alkyl) amino group or a piperidino group which may be substituted with a hydroxyl group or a hydroxyl-lower-alkyl group. 
     According to the present invention, the product of each production step may be isolated. In some cases, the objective 2-acylamino alcohol derivative represented by formula (4) can be obtained by using as the starting material an optically active diol which is the raw material of formula (1), and carrying out the above-described stepwise reactions in succession without isolating the product of each step. 
     The synthesis methods of N-protected-2-aminopropanediols to be used as the raw material of the amino alcohol derivative represented by formula (1) which is the starting material in the process of the present invention include a method in which an aminoketone is reduced ( J. Org. Chem.,  54:1866 (1989)), a method in which an N-(diphenylmethylene)amino acid ester is treated with diisobutylaluminum hydride and then with a Grignard&#39;s reagent ( J. Org. Chem.,  57:5469 (1992)), a method in which an acid chloride of an N-protected-aminoaldehyde or N-protected-amino acid is treated with an organometallic reagent ( J. Am. Chem. Soc.,  95:4098 (1973)), an asymmetric aldol reaction of 2-oxazolidinone with aldehyde ( J. Am, Chem. Soc.,  108:6757 (1986)) (Evans method) and an asymmetric aldol reaction of chiral imidazolidinone and oxazolidinone with aldehyde ( Helv. Chem. Acta,  70:237 (1987)). 
     On the other hand, N-protected-α-aminoketones to be used as the raw material of N-protected-2-aminopropanediols may be synthesized, for example, by a method in which an N-protected-α-amino acid is used as the starting material, and the carboxyl group of the amino acid is converted into an acid chloride and then allowed to undergo Friedel-Crafts&#39; reaction with benzene ( J. Am. Chem. Soc.,  103:6157 (1981)) or a method in which the carboxyl group of the amino acid is treated with an alkyl lithium reagent to convert it into a lithium salt and then allowed to react with a Grignard&#39;s reagent ( J. Org. Chem.,  54:1866 (1989)). 
     Thus, according to the present invention, optically active substances of PDMP and its analogues having a plurality of asymmetric centers can be synthesized efficiently by using an N-protected-2-aminopropanol derivative as the starting material without requiring complex optical resolution. In other words, the present invention is markedly useful, because all of the four stereoisomers of PDMP and its analogues can be synthesized stereoselectively. In addition, the novel amino alcohol derivatives of the present invention have plural asymmetric centers and therefore are markedly useful as a synthesis intermediate of PDMP and its analogues. 
     The present invention is now illustrated in greater detail by way of the following examples, but it should be understood that the present invention is not to be construed as being limited thereto. The term “MeOH”, “AcOEt”, “AcOH”and “DMF” as used hereinafter mean “methanol”, “ethyl acetate”, “acetic acid” and “N,N-dimethylformamide”, respectively.
