Vilazodone combines the effects of a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor with the 5-HT1A receptor partial agonist activity. Here, we report the development of a viable and scalable process for manufacturing vilazodone that features a convergent synthetic approach, with low cost and high purity. The key indole synthesis was improved to first make up the hydrazone intermediate and then modify a pendant hydroxy group to realize a much increased overall yield. This process was successfully used to prepare >2 kg of vilazodone hydrochloride with a total yield of 56.2% and purity of 99.93%.

An alternative and efficient telescopic approach to the synthesis of 3-(4-chloro butyl)-1H-indole -5-carbonitrile (2), a key intermediate in the synthesis of vilazodone hydrochloride (1), is described.

A NaH-mediated detosylation reaction of various Ts-protected indoles, azaheterocycles, anilines and dibenzylamine was reported. The method features cheap reagent, convenient operations, mild reaction conditions and broad substrate scope. Moreover, this study revealed that the loading of NaH in tosylation reactions of nitrogen-containing compounds with NaH as a base in DMA or DMF should be controlled due to the possibility of adverse detosylation.
An investigation of the synthesis of vilazodone

A novel synthetic route toward vilazodone is described by using 4-cyanoaniline and 5-bromo-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde as starting materials, with an overall yield of 24% and 99% purity. First, the intermediate (3-(4-chlorobutyl)-1H-indole-5-carbonitrile) is synthesized via diazotization of 4-cyanoaniline, followed by Fischer indole cyclization with 6-chlorohexanal. Subsequently, another intermediate, 5-(piperazin-1-yl)benzofuran-2-carboxamide, is generated via aromatic nucleophilic substitution of 5-bromobenzofuran-2-carboxamide with piperazine. Finally, vilazodone is obtained via nucleophilic substitution of the above two key intermediates by treatment with Et3N/K2CO3. In comparison to the original process, this route avoids the use of expensive and toxic reagents and resolves issues such as safety, environmental concerns, and high costs.
