Raloxifene, sold under the brand name Evista among others, is a medication used to prevent and treat osteoporosis in postmenopausal women and those on glucocorticoids.[4] For osteoporosis it is less preferred than bisphosphonates.[4] It is also used to reduce the risk of breast cancer in those at high risk.[4] It is taken by mouth.[4]

Common side effects include hot flashes, leg cramps, swelling, and joint pain.[4] Severe side effects may include blood clots and stroke.[4] Use during pregnancy may harm the baby.[4] The medication may worsen menstrual symptoms.[5] Raloxifene is a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) and therefore a mixed agonist–antagonist of the estrogen receptor (ER).[4] It has estrogenic effects in bone and antiestrogenic effects in the breasts and uterus.[4]

Raloxifene was approved for medical use in the United States in 1997.[4] It is available as a generic medication.[4][6] A month supply in the United Kingdom costs the NHS about 3.50 £ as of 2019.[6] In the United States the wholesale cost of this amount is about $16.[7] In 2017, it was the 330th most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than 900 thousand prescriptions.[8

Medical uses

Raloxifene is used for the treatment and prevention of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women.[9] It is used at a dosage of 60 mg/day for both the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis.[10] In the case of either osteoporosis prevention or treatment, supplemental calcium and vitamin D should be added to the diet if daily intake is inadequate.[11]

Raloxifene is used to reduce the risk of breast cancer in postmenopausal women. It is used at a dosage of 60 mg/day for this indication.[10] In the Multiple Outcomes of Raloxifene (MORE) clinical trial, raloxifene decreased the risk of all types of breast cancer by 62%, of invasive breast cancer by 72%, and of invasive estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer by 84%.[12] Conversely, it does not reduce the risk of estrogen receptor-negative breast cancer.[12] There were no obvious differences in effectiveness of raloxifene in the MORE trial for prevention of breast cancer at a dosage of 60 mg/m2/day relative to 120 mg/m2/day.[12] In the Study of Tamoxifen and Raloxifene (STAR) trial, 60 mg/day raloxifene was 78% as effective as 20 mg/day tamoxifen in preventing non-invasive breast cancer.[13] Women with undetectable levels of estradiol (<2.7 pg/mL) have a naturally low risk of breast cancer and, in contrast to women with detectable levels of estradiol, do not experience significant benefit from raloxifene in terms of reduction of breast cancer risk.[12]

Contraindications

Raloxifene is contraindicated in lactating women or women who are or who may become pregnant.[14] It also may be of concern to women with active or past history of venous thromboembolic events, including deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, and retinal vein thrombosis.[15]

Side effects

Common side effects of raloxifene include hot flashes (25–28% vs. 18–21% for placebo),[12] vaginal dryness, and leg cramps (generally mild; 5.5% vs. 1.9% for placebo).[14][1][16] Raloxifene does not cause breast tenderness, endometrial hyperplasia, menstrual bleeding, or endometrial cancer.[17] It does not appear to affect cognition or memory.[15][12] Raloxifene is a teratogen; i.e., it can cause developmental abnormalities such as birth defects.

Raloxifene may infrequently cause serious blood clots to form in the legs, lungs, or eyes.[1] Other reactions experienced include leg swelling/pain, trouble breathing, chest pain, and vision changes. Black box warnings were added to the label of raloxifene in 2007 warning of increased risk of death due to stroke for postmenopausal women with documented coronary heart disease or at increased risk for major coronary events, as well as increased risk for deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism.[14] The risk of venous thromboembolism with raloxifene is increased by several-fold in postmenopausal women (RR = 3.1).[18][12] Raloxifene has a lower risk of thromboembolism than tamoxifen.[13] In the MORE trial, raloxifene caused a 40% decrease in risk of cardiovascular events in women who were at increased risk for coronary artery disease, although there was no decrease in cardiovascular events for the group as a whole.[12]

A report in September 2009 from Health and Human Services’ Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality suggests that tamoxifen and raloxifene, used to treat breast cancer, significantly reduce invasive breast cancer in midlife and older women, but also increase the risk of adverse side effects.[19]

A recent human case report in July 2016 suggests that raloxifene may in fact, at some point, also stimulate breast cancer growth leading to a reduction of advanced breast cancer disease upon the withdrawal of the drug.[20]

Unlike other SERMs, such as tamoxifen, raloxifene has no risk of uterine hyperplasia or endometrial cancer (RR = 0.8).[1][18][13]

Raloxifene does not increase the incidence of breast pain or tenderness in postmenopausal women.[16][21]

Overdose

Raloxifene has been studied in clinical trials across a dosage range of 30 to 600 mg/day, and was well-tolerated at all dosages.[16]

Pharmacology

Pharmacodynamics

Mechanism of action

Raloxifene is a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) and hence is a mixed agonist and antagonist of the estrogen receptor (ER) in different tissues.[4] It has estrogenic activity in some tissues, such as bone and the liver, and antiestrogenic activity in other tissues, such as the breasts and uterus.[4] Its affinity (Kd) for the ERα is approximately 50 pM, which is similar to that of estradiol.[16] Relative to estradiol, raloxifene has been reported to possess about 8 to 34% of the affinity for the ERα and 0.5 to 76% of the affinity for the ERβ.[22][23] Raloxifene acts as a partial agonist of the ERα and as a pure antagonist of the ERβ.[24][25] In contrast to the classical ERs, raloxifene is an agonist of the G protein-coupled estrogen receptor (GPER) (EC50 = 10–100 nM), a membrane estrogen receptor.[26][27]

Clinical effects

Raloxifene has antiestrogenic effects in the mammary glands in preclinical studies.[16] In accordance, raloxifene reduces breast density in postmenopausal women, a known risk factor for breast cancer.[28] It does not stimulate the uterus in postmenopausal women, and results in no increase in risk of endometrial thickening, vaginal bleeding, endometrial hyperplasia, or endometrial cancer.[29][16][21] At the same time, raloxifene has minimal antiestrogenic effect in the uterus in premenopausal women.[29] This may possibly be due to inadequate tissue exposure of the uterus to raloxifene in these estrogen-rich individuals.[29]

In premenopausal women, raloxifene increases levels of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and estradiol.[12] Conversely, in postmenopausal women, raloxifene has been found to reduce levels of the gonadotropins, luteinizing hormone (LH) and FSH, while not affecting levels of estradiol.[12][29] Raloxifene also decreases prolactin levels in postmenopausal women.[29] In men, raloxifene has been found to disinhibit the hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal axis (HPG axis) and thereby increase total testosterone levels.[30][31][32][33] Due to the simultaneous increase in sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) levels however, free testosterone levels often remain unchanged in men during therapy with raloxifene.[30]

Raloxifene has estrogenic effects on liver protein synthesis.[12] It increases SHBG levels in both pre- and postmenopausal women as well as in men.[12][30] The medication decreases levels of total and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, C-reactive protein, apolipoprotein B, and homocysteine.[12][29] Conversely, it has little effect on levels of triglycerides and high-density lipoprotein (HDL).[12] Raloxifene has been shown to inhibit the oxidation of LDL cholesterol in vitro.[16] The medication has been found to decrease insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) levels in pre- and postmenopausal women as well as in men.[31] It has also been found to increase insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 (IGFBP-3) levels in pre- and postmenopausal women.[12] Due to activation of estrogen receptors in the liver, raloxifene has procoagulatory effects, such as decreasing levels of fibrinogen and influencing levels of other coagulation factors.[12][29][16] For these reasons, raloxifene increases the risk of thrombosis.[12][29]

Raloxifene increases bone mineral density in postmenopausal women but decreases it in premenopausal women.[12] In the MORE trial, the risk of vertebral fractures was decreased by 30%, and bone mineral density was increased in the spine (by 2.1% at 60 mg, 2.4% at 120 mg) and femoral neck (2.6% at 60 mg, 2.7% at 120 mg).[18] It has been found to possess estrogenic effects in adipose tissue in postmenopausal women, promoting a shift from an android fat distribution to a gynoid fat distribution.[34][35] The medication has been found to increase levels of leptin, an adipokine.[12]


AbsorptionPharmacokinetics

The absorption of raloxifene is approximately 60%.[1][2] However, due to extensive first-pass metabolism, the absolute bioavailability of raloxifene is only 2.0%.[1][2] Raloxifene is rapidly absorbed from the intestines upon oral administration.[1] Peak plasma levels of raloxifene occur 0.5 to 6 hours after an oral dose.[1][2]

Distribution

Raloxifene is widely distributed throughout the body.[1] There is extensive distribution of raloxifene into the liver, serum, lungs, and kidneys.[1] The volume of distribution of raloxifene with a single 30 to 150 mg oral dose is approximately 2348 L.[1][36] Both raloxifene and its metabolites show high plasma protein binding (>95%), including to both albumin and α1 acid glycoprotein, but not to sex hormone-binding globulin.[1][2]

Metabolism

Raloxifene is metabolized in the liver and undergoes enterohepatic recycling.[2] It is metabolized exclusively by glucuronidation and is not metabolized by the cytochrome P450 system.[1][2] Less than 1% of radiolabeled material in plasma comprises unconjugated raloxifene.[2] The metabolites of raloxifene include several glucuronides.[1] The elimination half-life of raloxifene after a single dose is 27.7 hours (1.2 days), whereas its half-life at steady state at a dosage of 60 mg/day is 15.8 to 86.6 hours (0.7–3.6 days), with an average of 32.5 hours (1.4 days).[1][2] The extended half-life of raloxifene is attributed to enterohepatic recirculation and its high plasma protein binding.[1] Raloxifene and its glucuronide conjugates are interconverted by reversible metabolism and enterohepatic recycling, which prolongs the elimination half-life of raloxifene with oral administration.[2] The medication is deconjugated into its active form in a variety of tissues, including liver, lungs, spleen, bone, uterus, and kidneys.[1]

Elimination

Raloxifene is mainly excreted in bile and is eliminated in feces.[1][2] Less than 0.2% of a dose is excreted unchanged in urine and less than 6% of a dose is excreted in urine as glucuronide conjugates.[2]

Raloxifene hydrochloride has the empirical formula C28H27NO4S•HCl, which corresponds to a molecular weight of 510.05 g/mol. Raloxifene hydrochloride is an off-white to pale-yellow solid that is slightly soluble in water.[14]

Raloxifene is a benzothiophene derivative and is structurally distinct from the triphenylethylene SERMs like tamoxifen, clomifene, and toremifene.[37] It is the only benzothiophene SERM to have been marketed.[37] A benzothiophene SERM that was not marketed is arzoxifene (LY-353381).[38] Bazedoxifene (Duavee, Viviant) and pipendoxifene (ERA-923) are structurally related to raloxifene but are technically not benzothiophenes and instead are indoles.[38]

History

Raloxifene was approved in the United States for the prevention of postmenopausal osteoporosis in 1997, the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis in 1999, and to prevent or reduce the risk of breast cancer in certain postmenopausal women in 2007.[39][40][41][42] It received orphan designation in 2005.[39]

Names

Raloxifene is the generic name of the drug and its INN and BAN, while raloxifène is its DCF and raloxifene hydrochloride is its USAN, BANM, and JAN.[43][44][45][46] It has also been known by the name keoxifene.[43][44][46]

Raloxifene is sold mainly under the brand name Evista and to a lesser extent the brand name Optruma.[46][44] It is also sold under a variety of other brand names in various countries.[46]

Availability

Raloxifene is available widely throughout the world, including in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Ireland, elsewhere throughout Europe, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Latin America, Southern, Eastern, and Southeastern Asia, and elsewhere in the world such as in Israel and Egypt.[46][44]

Raloxifene is provided in the form of 60 mg oral tablets.[10]

Controversy

An editorial in Lancet Oncology criticized the way that research about the medication for breast cancer prevention was released.[47]

Research

Clinical studies of raloxifene for metastatic breast cancer in women have been conducted but found little effectiveness at 60 mg/day in those previously treated with tamoxifen, though modest effectiveness has been observed at higher doses.[12][48] In contrast to tamoxifen, raloxifene is not approved for the treatment of breast cancer.[49]

Raloxifene has been studied in men for a variety of uses, such as for treatment of schizophrenia, prostate cancer, and osteoporosis.[50][51][52][53][54][33][32][55][56][57][58] It has been studied in combination with castration and bicalutamide, a nonsteroidal antiandrogen, for the treatment of prostate cancer.[58][55]

Raloxifene has been studied as an adjunct in the treatment of schizophrenia in postmenopausal women.[59] A 2017 meta-analysis concluded that it was safe and effective for this indication, although further studies with larger sample sizes are needed for confirmation.[59] It may be effective in women with less severe symptoms.[59]

A tissue-selective estrogen-receptor complex (TSEC) of estradiol and raloxifene has been studied in postmenopausal women.[60]

Raloxifene (60 mg/day) was reported to be effective in the treatment of pubertal gynecomastia in adolescent boys in a small retrospective chart review.[61][62][63] Other SERMs are also known to be effective in the treatment of gynecomastia.[64]

Raloxifene has been reported to augment the antidepressant effects of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs).[65]

June 18th 2020, Exscalate4CoV, the private-public consortium supported by the EU’s Horizon 2020 programme for research and innovation, led by Dompé farmaceutici and currently representing 18 partners (including Fraunhofer Institute, CINECA, Chelonia Applied Science, Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics and others) has requested access to clinical trials for the use of Raloxifene in Covid 19 patients. Raloxifene, already proven effective against Mers and Sars in precliinical tests, has been indicated as effective against Sars-Cov2 by the “in-silico” research conducted by the consortium which has shown efficacy in countering the replication of the virus in cells. The IP for its use against Sars-Cov2 has already been protected on May 6 2020 in the name Dompé farmaceutici, Fraunhofer Institute and KU Leuven, to facilitate the largest possible access. Raloxifene would be used in mildly symptomatic Covid19 patients to halt the spread of infection. This result emerged from the first virtual (in silico) screening conducted on the Consortium’s supercomputers of more than 400.000 molecules (safe-in-man drugs and natural products) made available by Dompé farmaceutici and the partner Fraunhofer (IME) to the Consortium. The molecules were prioritized if in clinical stage or already on the market. 7.000 molecules with certain promising characteristics were tested.

Keoxifene has been synthesized using the following process: A portion of 6-methanesulfonyloxy-2-(4-methanesulfonyloxyphenyl)-3-[4-(2-pipendinoethoxy)benzoyl]benzo[b]thiophene hydrochloride (I) was combined with denatured alcohol and 5N sodium hydroxide, and stirred under a nitrogen atmosphere. The reaction mixture was evaporated to dryness under vacuum, and the residue dissolved in water and washed with diethyl ether. The water layer was degassed under vacuum, and then nitrogen was bubbled through it to remove all traces of ether. The mixture was then acidified with 1N hydrochloric acid, and then made basic with excess sodium bicarbonate The precipitate was collected by filtration and washed with cold water to obtain crude product, which was purified on a column of silica gel. The column was eluted first with 700 ml of 5% methanol in chloroform, followed by 1l of 10% methanol in chloroform. The impurities came off first, and the product-containing fractions were combined and evaporated under vacuum to obtain a yellow oil. The oil was dissolved in acetone seeded and chilled in a freezer to obtain the purified product.

The synthesis of radiolabeled raloxifene has been reported: The esterification of 3,5-dibromo-4-hydroxybenzoic acid (I) with methanol/HCl gives the corresponding methyl ester (II), which is condensed with 1-(2-chloroethyl)piperidine (III) by means of K2CO3 in DMF yielding 3,5-dibromo-4-[2-(1-piperidyl)ethoxy]benzoic acid methyl ester (IV). The hydrolysis of (IV) with NaOH in methanol affords the corresponding free acid (V), which by treatment of SOCl2 in toluene is converted to the acyl chloride (VI). The Friedel-Crafts condensation of (VI) with 6-methoxy-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)benzo[b]thiophene (VII) by means of AlCl3 in dichloromethane gives [3,5-dibromo-4-[2-(1-piperidinyl)ethoxy]phenyl]-[6-methoxy-2-(4-methoxy phenyl)benzo[b]thien-3-yl]methanone (VIII), which is demethylated with AlCl3 and ethylmercaptane to dibromoraloxifene (IX). Finally, this compound is submitted to hydrogenolysis with tritium over Pd/C in methanol.

The two major metabolites of raloxifene, the glucuronide conjugates (VI) and (VIII) are synthesized as follows: The partial silylation of raloxifene (I) with tert-butyldimethylsilyl chloride (TBDMS-Cl) by means of dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) in THF/DMF gives a mixture of the monosilylated compounds (II) and (III), which are separated by chromatography. Compounds (II) and (III) are independently condensed with methyl 1,2,3,4-tetra-O-acetyl-D-glucuronate (IV) by means of BF3.OEt2 in dichloromethane yielding protected glucuronides (V) and (VII), respectively. Finally, both compounds are deprotected by a treatment first with LiOH in dioxane to hydrolyzed the ester groups, and then with tetrabutylammonium fluoride in THF to eliminate the silyl groups, thus obtaining the desired metabolites (VI) and (VIII), respectively.

A GREEN PROCESS FOR DEMETHYLATION REACTION IN SYNTHESIS OF RALOXIFENE HYDROCHLORIDEAuthors : Ramadas Chavakula *, Chakradhar Saladi J S, Narayana Rao Mutyalaa , Vijaya Raju Maddalaa and Raghu Babu Kb

A green process for  demethylation reaction in synthesis of raloxifene hydrochloride by using aluminium chloride and odorless  decanethiol as demethylation agent instead of aluminium chloride and ethanethiol (foul smell) under normal conditions is described.

Raloxifene hydrochloride [1], is an estrogen agonist/antagonist, commonly referred to as a Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulator (SERM) [1,2] that belongs to the benzothiophene class of compounds. Raloxifene decreases the resorption of bone and reduces the biochemical markers of bone turnover to the premenopausal range [3–5]. Raloxifene hydrochloride may also lower the chance of developing a certain type of breast cancer (invasive breast cancer) in post-menopausal women [6,7]. It can be synthesized [3] directly from aroylation of 6-methoxy-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)benzo[b]thiophene [2] by the acid chloride(4) of 4-[2-(1-piperidinyl)ethoxy]benzoic acid hydrochloride [3] in the presence of AlCl3 followed by addition of ethanethiol (FIG. 1).

Experimental Section

4-[2-(1-Piperidinyl)ethoxy]benzoic acid hydrochloride [3] and 6-methoxy-2-(4-methoxyphenyl) benzo[b] thiophene [2] were prepared by procedures reported previously [3]. Decanethiol was from commercial source. All melting points are uncorrected and were determined in capillary tubes on an Electothermal melting point apparatus. 1H NMR spectra were recorded on a Brucker ADVANCE 400 MHz spectrometer, using DMSO-d6 as solvent and TMS as internal standard. Electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy was performed using an ion trap mass spectrometer (Model 6310 Agilent). All reactions were monitored and checked by Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) using methanol and spots examined by a UV lamp.

Preparation of [6-hydroxy-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)benzo[b]thiophen-3-yl][4-[2-(1-piperidyl)ethoxy]phenyl] methanone hydrochloride (Raloxifene hydrochloride) [1]

To a solution of 4-[2-(1-piperidinyl)ethoxy]benzoic acid hydrochloride (3) (14.3 g, 0.05 mol) in methylene dichloride (400 mL) and pyridine (0.5 mL) at 25ºC to 35ºC, thionyl chloride (23.8 g, 0.20 mol) was added dropwise under argon for 15-30 minute. The reaction mixture was stirred for 2 hr. at 40ºC to 45ºC. Excess thionyl chloride and solvent were removed in vacuum at 40◦C to afford 15.0 g of the crude acid chloride hydrochloride salt [4]. The crude solid acid chloride hydrochloride [4] was dissolved in methylene dichloride (150 mL), cooled to 0ºC to 10ºC, 6-methoxy-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)benzo[b] thiophene [2] (10.8 g, 0.04 mol) was added. Then, anhydrous aluminium chloride (37.0 g, 0.28 mol) was added portion wise over a period of 30 min and then the mixture was allowed to warm to 30ºC and stirred for 2 hr at 25-35ºC. Then decanethiol (28.0 g, 0.16 mol) was added and stirred for 2 hr. at 25-35ºC. The reaction mixture was quenched with mixture of methanol (100 mL), ice (200 g) and Conc. HCl (15 mL) and stirred for 1 hr. at 25-35ºC. The precipitated solid was collected, washed with water (100 mL X 2) and dried at 65ºC for 4 h to afford 20.0 g of crude compound 1, which was crystallized from methanol/water (23/1, vol/vol) to yield 13.6 g of compound 1 (53.3 %yield) as a white solid, MP 258-260°C, liter 3, 258°C ; 1H NMR: δ 1.34, 1.72 [2H, m, (CH2CH2)2CH2], 1.76 [4H, m, N(CH2CH2)2], 2.96 (2H, m, N-CH2), 3.43 [4H, m, N(CH2CH2)2], 4.44 (2H, m, O-CH2), 6.67 (2H, d, Ar), 6.85 (1H, d, Ar), 6.95 (2H, d, Ar), 7.18 (2H, d, Ar), 7.25 (1H, d, Ar), 7.35 (1H, s, Ar), 7.70 (2H, d, Ar), 9.77 (1H, s, OH), 9.82 (1H, s, OH), 10.16 (1H, brs, NH), MS (ESI): m/z 474.6 (M +H). “This procedure has been scaled up using 250g of compound 1.”

Results and Discussion

Commonly used thiols like ethanethiol and benzyl mercaptan in demethylation reactions have a foul smell making them difficult and unpleasant to use in the laboratory without fume hoods. The problem becomes even worse in industry on a large scale. Odorless substitutes are therefore always required. Few papers [8,9] discuss the use of long chain thiols to minimize odor, so we used this work as a basis for choosing a long chain thiol for our demethylation reaction. We now report a new, highly active demethylation reagent, an aluminum chloride and decanethiol, characterized by rapid action under mild conditions, easy workup of the reaction product, and high yield (FIG. 2.).

Conclusion

In conclusion, we have found that decanethiol is odorless thiol compared to ethanethiol. We believe that removing the foul-smelling thiols and use of these odorless thiols will greatly improve the greenchemistry.

Piperidine Nucleophilic Substitution Without Solvent: An Efficient Synthesis of Raloxifene

Mild and high-yielding synthesis is described for raloxifene via piperdine nucleophilic substitution of a new raloxifene intermediate 3-aroyl-2-aryl-substituted benzo[b]thiophenes, which is obtained by acylation of para-substituted benzoyl chlorides and 2-arylbenzo[b]thiophenes. The key step is solvent free and offers valuable advantages, such as low cost, and is suitable for industrial production.

The improved synthesis of raloxifene 1 was accomplished as shown in Scheme 2. Methyl p-hydroxybenzoate 2, 1-bromo-2-chloroethane, and K2CO3 were refluxed in acetone, yielding compound 3 in 94% yield. Without prior purification, 3 was hydrolyzed to the corresponding p-substituted benzoyl acids 4 in 100% yield. The application of general reaction conditions of methanol as solvent and hydrochloric as acid would afford the substitution impurity 4-(2-methoxyethoxy)-benzoic acid. To control this impurity during reaction, various solvents such as alcohol, ethyl acetate, acetone, and tetrahydrofuran (THF) were screened, and THF gave the best result from the view of impurity formation and yield. Compound 4 is a solid and was easily isolated from THF by adding water. Then 4 was transferred to acid chlorides 5 and substantially reacted with benzothiophene 6 using AlCl3 in dichloromethane at 50 C to afford aroylated benzothiophene 7 in two steps, with yield of 95% (79% from method A[8] and 65.5% from method B[3]). With the requisite 7 in hand, we next examined piperidine nucleophilic substitution to produce the desired beno[b]thien-3-yl ketones 8. In general using reaction conditions A (acetone, NaI, K2CO3, reflux, 70%) and B (acetonitrile, NaI, K2CO3, reflux, 85%), impurity formation was observed from the beginning of the reaction. We screened various conditions and were delighted to found that using excess piperidine at reflux temperature gave negligible impurity formation. Piperidine was not only reagent but also solvent. The isolated product 8 was stable and was converted into the desired raloxifene 1 as reported. In conclusion, we have developed a viable alternative route for the synthesis of raloxifene. The new synthesis would have been better able to support the increase in bulk demand for this drug for the chemoprevention of breast cancer and novel formulations. Our synthetic route has several advantages: the use of difunctionalized coumpunds 5 as key intermediate makes Friedel–Crafts acylation and nucleophilic substitution highly efficient. The using of piperine as reagent and solvent avoids the large waste streams derived from neutralization reaction of sodium hydride. The cost of the new route is less than the current route of manufacture.

Raloxifene (7685)

Raloxifene (Evista) (1.3.4) is a second-generation selective estrogen receptor modulator that functions as an estrogen antagonist on breast and uterine tissues, and an estrogen agonist on bone. Raloxifene is an antiresorptive agent, a new representative of a class of drugs that prevent the loss of bone mass, i.e., used to treat osteoporosis and similar diseases in postmenopausal women and those postmenopausal women at increased risk of invasive breast cancer [41–53].

It was shown that raloxifene can have some affect on cognition, mental health, sleep, and sexual function in menopausal women [54]. Raloxifene was used also as an adjuvant treatment in postmenopausal women with schizophrenia [55].

The first reported synthesis of the raloxifene scaffold consists in Friedel-Crafts aroylation in 1,2-dichloroethane and using AlCl3 as a catalyst by coupling of 4-(2-(piperidin-1-yl)ethoxy)benzoyl chloride (2.3.15) with benzothiophene derivative (2.3.16) followed by alkaline hydrolysis of mesyl groups, which give the desired raloxifene (2.3.4) [56–58] (Scheme 2.9).

Scheme 2.9. Synthesis of raloxifene.

The key intermediate – 6-methoxy-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)benzo[b]thiophene (2.3.16) – was prepared by the cyclization-rearrangement of 1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-((3-methoxyphenyl)thio)ethan-1-one (2.3.20) induced by polyphosphoric acid (PPA). This rearrangement (Kost rearrangement [59]) is general for 3-(R-substituted)indoles, -benzofurans, and -benzothiophenes, which are converted to the corresponding 2-isomers by heating with PPA.

The synthesis started from thiophenol (2.3.18) and bromoketone (2.3.19), which were coupled in presence of KOH in ethanol/water solution. Obtained (2.3.20) was heated with PPA to give a mixture that is easily separable by crystallization isomeric 2-phenylbenzo[b]thiophenes (2.3.21) and (2.3.22), where preferable, isomer (2.3.22) predominates. Cleavage of the methoxy groups in (2.3.22) was done conveniently with pyridine hydrochloride to give (2.3.23), which was easily converted to mesylate (2.3.16) with methanesulfonyl chloride in pyridine and 4-dimethylaminopyridine as a catalyst (Scheme 2.10).

The second reagent—4-(2-(piperidin-1-yl)ethoxy)benzoyl chloride (2.3.15)—was prepared starting with 4-hydroxybenzoate (2.3.24), which with 1-(2-chloroethyl)piperidine (2.3.25) in anhydrous DMF, and K2CO3 or sodium hydride, gave methyl 4-(2-(piperidin-1-yl)ethoxy)benzoate (2.3.26) hydrolyzed in MeOH/water NaOH solution. The acid (2.3.26) was converted to its chloride (2.3.15) with SOCl2 in 1,2-dichloroethane and a catalytic amount of DMF (Scheme 2.11).

Scheme 2.11. Synthesis of the second key intermediate—4-(2-(piperidin-1-yl)ethoxy)benzoyl chloride.

Another novel convenient synthesis of raloxifene (2.3.4) have been proposed [60]. According to this method anisaldehyde (2.3.28) was transformed to corresponding cyanohydrin (2.3.29) using a mixture of sodium cyanide ethanol containing triethylamine through which HCl gas was passed over 30 minutes at 5–10°C.

Gaseous HCl was added to the solution of prepared cyanohydrin (2.3.29) in ethanol at room temperature over 30 minutes in order to give p-methoxybenzaldehyde cyanohydrin iminoether hydrochloride (2.3.30). Then, hydrogen sulfide was bubbled into a solution of the methyl imidate (2.3.30) and triethylamine in methanol at 0°C to give α-(4-methoxy phenyl)-α-hydroxy-N,N dimethylthioacetamide (2.3.31).

To the obtained α-hydroxythioamide (2.3.31) dissolved-in-methylene chloride methanesulfonic acid was slowly added, which transformed the starting material to 2-N,N-dimethylamino-6-methoxy benzo[β]thiophene (2.3.32).

The obtained 2-dimethylaminobenzothiophene (2.3.32) and known 4-(2-piperidinoethoxy)-benzoyl chloride (2.3.15) were partially dissolved in chlorobenzene and the mixture was warmed in a 100–105°C to give 2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-6-methoxy-3-[4-(piperidinoethoxy)benzoyl]-benzo[β]thiophene (2.3.33). 4-Methoxyphenylmagnesium bromide (2.3.34) in THF was added to chilled to 0°C prepared compound (2.3.33) in THF, which gave 2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-6-methoxy-3-[4-(piperidinoethoxy)benzoyl] benzo[β] thiophene (2.3.35). To the prepared benzothiophene (2.3.35) suspended in chlorobenzene was added AlCl3, followed by the addition of n-propanethiol, and the mixture was heated at 35°C. After the workup with aqueous HCl, the desired raloxifene (2.3.4) was separated [60] (Scheme 2.12).
