gel plates using chloroform: ethyl acetate (19:1). Elute the desired band with
ethyl acetate, filter the eluate and evaporate at room temperature to give
crude product (1.3 g). Recrystallize the product by dissolving in refluxing
methylene chloride, filtering and then replacing the methylene chloride at
reflux with methanol and then the methanol with distilled water. Cool the
suspension to room temperature, filter and dry under vacuum at 50°C to give
the pure pregna-1,4-diene-3,20-dione, 9,21-dichloro-17-((2-
furanylcarbonyl)oxy)-11-hydroxy-16-methyl-, (11β-,16α)-.
METHOD II
The present invention (Patent U.S. 6,177,560) refers to a new process for the
preparation of mometasone furoate carried out by esterifiication of the 17
hydroxy group of mometasone without prior protection of the 11 hydroxy
group. Mometasone (30 g) was suspended in methylene chloride (300 ml) and
the resulting suspension was cooled to 0-5°C. At this temperature
triethylamine (57 ml) was added. 2-Furoyl chloride (24 ml) was then added
slowly. The mixture was then stirred at 8-12°C until the level of mometasone
present was lower than 0.2% by HPLC. The reaction solution was then cooled
to between -5-5°C and water (120 ml) was added with stirring. After stirring
for 1 hour at 10-15°C the mixture was cooled to between 0-5°C and
concentrated hydrochloric acid was added to adjust the pH of the aqueous
layer between 1 and 2.
The phases were separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with
methylene chloride (60 ml). To the combined organic layers concentrated
hydrochloric acid (90 ml) and acetic acid (30 ml) was added at a temperature
15-25°C. Then the two phase reaction mixture was stirred until less than
0.1% of the side products remained as monitored by HPLC. The reaction
mixture was cooled to 0-5°C and water (120 ml) was added. The lower
organic layer was separated, water (120 ml) and 8 N aqueous sodium
hydroxide solution (about 30 ml) were added to adjust the pH to between 5
and 6. After stirring for 2 hours the organic layer was separated and washed
with water (120 ml). The organic solution [containing the mometasone 17-(2-
furoate)] was concentrated by distillation to a volume of 120 ml. Further methanol (120 ml) was added and the mixture was concentrated to 120 ml.
This procedure was repeated twice more. The reaction mixture was slowly
cooled to 0-5°C and stirred for 2 hours. The crude mometasone 17-(2-
furoate) was then filtered off and washed with cold methanol.
Purification of mometasone 17-(2-furoate)
The wet cake was dissolved in acetone (395 ml) and charcoal (3 g) was
added. After 24 hours, the charcoal was filtered off and washed with acetone
(90 ml). Charcoal (3 g) was added to the solution and the solution stirred for
at least 24 hours at between 15-25°C. The charcoal was then filtered off and
washed with acetone (75 ml). The solution was concentrated by distillation to
a volume of 120 ml. During this concentration the mometasone 17-(2-furoate)
started to crystallise. Methanol (120 ml) was added and the solution was
again concentrated to 120 ml. This procedure was repeated twice. The
suspension was cooled slowly to 0-5°C and stirred for about 2 hours at this
temperature. The pure mometasone 17-(2-furoate) was then filtered off and
washed with cold methanol. The product was dried at 60-70°C. A yield of
29.92 g was obtained. | | Brand name | Asmanex (Schering);Elocon (Schering). | | Therapeutic Function | Glucocorticoid | | Biological Functions | Mometasone furoate has strong local
anti-inflammatory activity equivalent to that of fluticasone propionate. It has a quick onset of action relative to
the other inhaled/intranasal steroids with the least systemic availability and, consequently, the fewest systemic
side effects. | | General Description | Mometasone furoate,9,21-dichloro-17α-[(2-furanylcarbonyl)oxy]-11β-hydroxy-16α-methylpregna-1,4-diene-3,20-dione (Elocon), is a highpotencyGC available in cream, lotion, or ointment formulationsfor topical use. In addition, mometasone furoatemonohydrate is formulated for treating allergic rhinitis andasthma. | | General Description | Mometasone furoate (Asmanex,Nasonex) undergoes extensive metabolism to multiplemetabolites. No major metabolites are detectable in humanplasma after oral administration, but the 6β-hydroxy metaboliteis detectable by use of human liver microsomes. Thismetabolite is formed via the CYP3A4 pathway. | | Biochem/physiol Actions | Mometasone furoate is a 17-heterocyclic intranasal corticosteroid. It is effectively used as a first-line daily intranasal therapeutic for allergic rhinitis and nasal polyposis. Mometasone furoate is also used as an adjunct to anti-bacterials for treating acute rhinosinusitis. In addition, it relieves the symptoms of asthma in both adults and adolescents by exhibiting a broad spectrum of anti-inflammatory properties. | | Mechanism of action | Mometasone furoate is the most recent glucocorticoid to be developed and commercialized. It has
a number of unique functional groups that confer enhanced glucocorticoid activity as well as
pharmacokinetic advantages. The combination of the C-21 chloro and the furoic acid ester at
C-17 results in the highest glucocorticoid receptor affinity of any topical corticosteroid. The 16α-
methyl decreases the mineralocorticoid effects, and the 9α-chloro group increases both
glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid activities. Inhaled mometasone furoate acts locally as an
anti-inflammatory treatment for asthma and has the least systemic bioavailability of all the
inhaled glucocorticoids (<1%). | | Clinical Use | Mometasone furoate was originally marketed as a topically applied corticosteroid, but because of its low
systemic bioavailability, it was found to be more useful in the treatment of allergic disorders and lung diseases
(107). | | Metabolism | It is extensively metabolized, with 6β-hydroxymometasone and
21-hydroxymometasone being found among the metabolites. Inhaled mometasone furoate in
mainly excreted in the feces (~74%) as metabolites and only minimally excreted in the urine
(~8%). It has a relatively long half-life in the lung and is administered once daily, usually in the
evening. |
