Process Research and Scale-up of a Commercialisable Route to Maraviroc (UK-427,857), a CCR-5 Receptor Antagonist
文摘
A six-step synthetic route to the CCR-5 receptor antagonist, Maraviroc (UK-427,857) (1) has been developed and demonstrated at scale in a pilot plant. The route has supported four Pilot-Plant campaigns and has produced multikilogram quantities of 1. Continued development of the synthetic route has resulted in a robust process with improved throughput compared to that of the original synthesis (Haycock-Lewandowski, S. J.; Mawby, N. J.; Wilder, A.; Ahman, J. Org. Process Res. Dev. 2008, 12, 1094−1103).
