Method 1
To a cooled (0 °C) solution of lactone 19 (2.0 g, 4 mmol) in 160 mL of dry diethyl ether was added 12 mL of 1 M solution of t-BuMgCl in diethyl ether. After 2 h, 30 mL of aq NH4Cl was added. The aqueous layer was extracted with ether (160 mL), the organic layer was washed with satd NaHCO3 (50 mL) and dried (MgSO4), and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. Crude product 20 (1.64 g, 82%) obtained as a yellowish solid was used in the next step without further purification. An analytic sample was obtained by chromatography on silica gel (hexanes/ethyl acetate 7:3).

Ezetimibe has the chemical name
1-(4-fluorophenyl)-3(R)-[3-(4-fluorophenyl)-3(S)-hydroxypropyl]-4(S)-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-azetidinone
(hereinafter referred to by its adopted name “ezetimibe”) and is
structurally represented by Formula I.
Ezetimibe is in a class of lipid lowering compounds that selectively
inhibit the intestinal absorption of cholesterol and related
phytosterols. It is commercially available in products sold using the
trademark ZETIA as a tablet for oral administration containing 10 mg of
ezetimibe, and in combination products with simvastatin using the
trademark VYTORIN.
U.S. Pat. No. 6,096,883 discloses generically and specifically ezetimibe
and its related compounds along with their pharmaceutical compositions.
The patent also describes a process for the preparation of ezetimibe.
The process described in the patent involves the use of
methyl-4-(chloroformyl) butyrate and also involves isolation of the
compound
(3R,4S)-1-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-[3-(chloroformyl)-3-oxo-propyl]-4-(4-benzyloxyphenyl)-2-azetidinone
as an intermediate. Chlorinated compounds are unstable and difficult to
handle in large scale productions. The process described in the patent
also involves the purification of intermediates using column
chromatography, thus making the process difficult to be scaled up.
Processes for preparation of ezetimibe and its intermediates have also
been described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,207,822, 5,856,473, 5,739,321, and
5,886,171, International Application Publication No. WO 2006/050634, and
in Journal of Medicinal Chemistry 1998, 41, 973-980, Journal of Organic Chemistry 1999, 64, 3714-3718, and Tetrahedron Letters, 44(4), 801-804.

EXAMPLE 10 PREPARATION OF 1-(4-FLUOROPHENYL)-3(R)-[3-(4-FLUOROPHENYL)-3(S)-HYDROXYPROPYL]-4(S)-(4-HYDROXYPHENYL)-2-AZETIDINONE (FORMULA I)
50 g of
(3R,4S)-1-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-[3-(4-fluorophenyl)-3(s)-hydroxypropyl]-4-(4-benzyloxyphenyl)-2-azetidinone
and 475 ml of methanol were taken into a round bottom flask. A mixture
of 15 g of 5% palladium on carbon and 25 ml of water was added to it.
The reaction mass was flushed with hydrogen gas and a hydrogen pressure
of 3 to 5 kg/cm2 was applied. The reaction mass was stirred for 3 hours.
Reaction completion was checked using thin layer chromatography. After
the reaction was completed, the pressure was released and the reaction
mass was filtered through perlite. The filter bed was washed with 100 ml
of methanol. The filtrate was distilled completely at 70° C., and 400
ml of isopropanol was added to it. The reaction mass was heated to 45°
C. and maintained for 10 minutes. The reaction mass was then allowed to
cool to 28° C. 400 ml of water was added to the reaction mass and
stirred for 1 hour, 20 minutes. The separated compound was filtered and
washed with 100 ml of water. The wet cake was taken into another round
bottom flask and 500 ml of chlorobenzene and 40 ml of methanol were
added to it. The reaction mass was heated to 65° C. and maintained for
15 minutes. 25 ml of water was added to the reaction mass and stirred
for 2 hours. The separated compound was filtered and washed with 100 ml
of chlorobenzene. The wet cake was taken into another round bottom flask
and 375 ml of chlorobenzene, and 30 ml of methanol were added to it.
The reaction mass was heated to 62° C. and maintained for 10 minutes.
The reaction mass was then cooled to 28° C. and 20 ml of water was added
to it. The reaction mass was stirred for 20 minutes and then filtered
and washed with 100 ml of chlorobenzene. The wet cake was taken into
another round bottom flask and 400 ml of isopropanol was added to it.
The reaction mass was heated to 46° C. and maintained for 15 minutes.
800 ml of water was added to the reaction mass at 45 to 46° C. and
stirred for one hour. The separated solid was filtered and washed with
water. The process of recrystallization in a combination of isopropanol
and water was repeated and the obtained compound was dried at 70° C. for
5 hours to get 19.8 g of the title compound. (Yield 49.2%)
Purity by HPLC: 99.68%.

15.0 g of ezetimibe obtained above and 120 ml of isopropanol were taken
into a round bottom flask and the reaction mass was heated to 48° C. The
reaction mass was filtered through a perlite bed in the hot condition
to make the solution particle free. The filtrate was taken into another
round bottom flask and heated to 47° C. 240 ml of water was added at 47°
C. After completion of the addition, the reaction mass was maintained
at 47° C. for 1 hour. The separated solid was filtered and washed with
30 ml of water. The wet compound was dried at 70° C. for 8 hours to get
13.4 g of the title compound. (Yield 89%)
Purity by HPLC: 99.92.
