Description

ATORVASTATIN CALCIUM
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a process for the production of amorphous atorvastatin calcium.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The process for the production of amorphous [R-(R* R*)]-2-(4- fluorophenyl)-β,δ-dihydroxy-5-(l-methylethyl)-3-phenyl-4- [(phenylamino)carbonyl]-lH-pyrrole-l-heptanoic acid hemi calcium salt.
Atorvastatin calcium, a synthetic HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor, is used for the treatment of hyperlipidemia and hypercholesterolemia, both of which are risk factors for arteriosclerosis and coronary heart disease.
United States Patent 5,273,995, describes that R-form of the ring opened acid form inhibits the biosynthesis of cholesterol. Atorvastatin in its calcium salt form, i.e. amorphous [R- (R*,R*)]-2-(4-fluorophenyl)-β,δ-dihydrox>-5-(l-methylethyl)- 3ι- ?henyl-4-[(phenylamino)carbonyl]-l H-pyrrole-l -heptanoic acid hemi calcium salt (2: 1 ) is discussed in literature.
Various United States patents like, 5,003,080; 5,097,045; 5, 1 03,024; 5,124,482; 5, 149,837; 5,248.793; 5,280.126; 5,342,952, which are herein incorporated by reference, describe various processes and key intermediates for preparing atorvastatin calcium.
The process mentioned in the above patents does not produce atorvastatin calcium in its amorphous form consistently. Often a mixture of crystalline and amorphous form is obtained which is not suitable for filtration and drying and therefore not a desirable process for large-scale production.
PCT application, WO 97/03959, discloses novel crystalline forms of atorvastatin calcium designated as Form 1. Form II, and Form IV and method for their preparation. PCT application WO 97/03960 describes a procedure for converting the crystalline form of atorvastatin to the amorphous form.
The process described in the above mentioned patent involves dissolving the crystalline atorvastatin (form-I) in a non hydroxylic solvent like tetrahydrofuran or mixtures of tetrahydrofuran and toluene, followed by removal of the s xolvents under high temperature (about 90°C) and high vacuum
(about 5mm). This process may not suitable on a large scale as the conditions used for drying may lead to degradation of the product.
PCT application WO 00/71 1 16 claims a process for the preparation of amorphous atorvastatin calcium where the crystalline form is dissolved in a non-hydroxilic solvent is treated with a non-polar hydrocarbon anti-solvent followed by the removal of the solvent to result in the amorphous form.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
It is desirable to have a process, which provides amorphous atorvastatin using a procedure, which can be readily scaled up to a commercial scale. The present invention describes a process, which is ideal for large scale production of amorphous atorvastatin calcium.
The present invention provides a process for the preparation of atorvastatin calcium in an amorphous form which comprises dissolving the heterogeneous mixture of atorvastatin in a non- hydroxylic solvent followed by the addition of a suitable non- hydroxylic solvent to precipitate the product which is then isolated. Alternatively, the solution of atorvastatin in a non- hydroxylic solvent is added to a non-hydroxylic solvent to induce precipitation.
The product can be isolated by any method known in the art such as by filtration, centrifugation or decantation. Typically, this product is isolated by filtration when any of the solvents within the scope of the process are used.
Major advantages of the present invention compared to the prior art processes are: i. Produces amorphous atorvastatin consistently. ii. Avoids the necessity to remove solvents. iii. Simpler and faster filtration. iv. Easy to operate on large-scale. v. Avoids the use of hydrocarbons.
The present invention thus provides a simple and novel process for the preparation of amorphous atorvastatin calcium and hydrates thereof. The starting material used in the instant invention comprises of a mixture of both amorphous and crystalline forms — henceforth referred to as heterogeneous mixture. The present invention comprises of:
(i) Dissolving the heterogeneous mixture of atorvastatin calcium in a non-hydroxylic solvent; '(ii) Adding, a non-hydroxylic solvent to precipitate the material: and
(iii) Removing the solvent by filtration to afford amorphous atorvastatin calcium.
The non-hydroxylic solvent in step (i) is tetrahydrofuran.
The non-hydoxylic solvent used in step (ii) is diisopropyl ether.
The amorphous atorvastatin calcium is isolated by filtration.
Amorphous atorvastatin calcium prepared according to the process of the present invention may be characterized by its x- ray powder diffraction pattern (Figures 2) as shown in the accompanied drawings. X-ray powder diffraction patterns (Figures 2) show no peaks which are characteristic of a heterogeneous mixmre of atorvastatin calcium (Figure 1 of the accompanied drawings) thus demonstrating the amorphous nature of the product.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURES
Figure 1 is the diffractogram of heterogeneous mixture of atorvastatin calcium. The horizontal axis represents 2Θ and the vertical axis corresponds to peak intensity. Figure 2 is the diffractogram of amorphous atorvastatin calcium. The horizontal axis represents 2Θ and the vertical axis corresponds to peak intensity.
The present invention is illustrated by the following examples, which an intended to limit the effective scope of the claims.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Example 1
[R-(R*,R*)]-2-(4-fluorophenyl)-β,δ-dihydroxy-5-(l- methyIethyI)-3-phenyI-4-|(phenyIamino)carbonyI]-lH- pyrrole-1-heptanoic acid hemi calcium salt (Amorphous Atorvasatin calcium).
A heterogeneous mixture of Atorvastatin calcium (10 g) was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (200 ml) at 55°C and filtered over hyflo supercell. The filtrate was evaporated to 40 ml stage under vacuum and precipitated using diisopropyl ether (200 ml) at room temperature. The mixture was stirred for 30 min. at room temperature and filtered. The product was washed with diisopropyl ether (15 ml). The product was dried in vacuum tray drier (650 mm/Hg) at 55°C for 24 hrs to yield 9 g. ) -ray powder diffraction pattern (Figure 2 as shown in the accompanied drawings) demonstrates the amorphous nature of the product as against the heterogeneous nature of the starting material (Figure 1 as shown in the accompanied drawings)
While the present invention has been described in terms of its specific embodiments, certain modifications and equivalents will be apparent to those skilled in the art and are intended to be included within the scope of the present invention.
