Page/Page column 4-5, (2012/05/21)
The present invention relates to a novel manufacturing process of pharmaceutically active compound of formula I used as oral anti-diabetic drug. Starting from L-aspartic acid derivate of formula IV the invention describes preparation of the chiral (R)-β-amino acid of formula II known as a precursor in the synthesis of Sitagliptin (formula I).

Page/Page column 7, (2011/04/25)
Disclosed is a process for preparing chiral pharmaceutical intermediates of R-beta-amino phenylbutyric acid derivatives (I) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, which affords the desired object compounds having special optical configuration by chemosynthesis process comprising resolving the optical isomer mixtures of beta-amino phenylbutyric acid derivatives with resolving agent. This process comprises the resolving step of salification in alcoholic solvent or aquesous solution of alcohol with resolving agent of di-para-toluoyl-L-tartaric acid and di-para-toluoyl-D-tartaric acid. The obtained R-beta-amino phenylbutyric acid derivatives (I) have high optical purity, and the total yield of the accumulative resolution of the laevo and the dextro isomer is up to above 70%. The R-beta-amino phenylbutyric acid derivatives (I) produced by this process can be better used in synthesizing medicament.

The enantioselective (E~ 200) Burkholderia cepacia-catalysed hydrolyses of β-amino esters with H2O (0.5 equiv.) in t-BuOMe or in i-Pr2O at 45 °C are described. The enantiomers of biologically relevant β-arylalkyl-substituted β-amino acids, and especially (R)-3-amino-3-(2,4,5-trifluorophenyl)butanoic acid, the intermediate of the new antidiabetic drug sitagliptine, were prepared with high enantiomeric excesses (ee≥96%) and in good yields (≥42%).
