An Improved Manufacturing Process for Fluvastatin

Abstract: An improved manufacturing process for fluvastatin 1 has been developed by performing the condensation reaction of E-[3-(4-fluorophenyl)-1-(1-methylethyl)-1H-indol-2-yl]-2-propenal, 4, with the dianion of tert-butyl acetoacetate and the subsequent low-temperature reduction to 7-[3-(4-fluorophenyl)-1-(1-methylethyl)-1H-indol-2-yl]-3,5-dihydroxy-6-heptenoic acid-1,1-dimethylethylester, 2, without isolation of the intermediate 7-[3-(4-fluorophenyl)-1-(1-methylethyl)-1H-indol-2-yl]-5-hydroxy-3-oxo-6-heptenoic acid-… Show more

“…However, to the best of our knowledge, fluvastatin has been approved as a racemic form. In fact, the Novartis group has reported the manufacturing of racemic fluvastatin 56. As for the chiral version, Prasad and his Novartis group reported a method employing the Wadsworth–Horner–Emmons reaction 57.…”

“…Therefore, there was a little room left for marginal improvements of the synthesis of fluvastatin and its building blocks. Consequently, studies in this area are scarce [10,112].…”

“…In 2007, the technical know-hows in the manufacturing of artemether and benflumetol were opened [190], including the reduction of QHS with potassium borohydride and replacement of methylene dichloride by methyl acetate in the manufacture of artemether. These effective measures will reduce production cost.…”
