Novel Synthetic Route of (2S)‐6‐Fluoro‐4‐oxo‐3,4‐dihydro‐2H‐chromene‐2‐carboxylic Acid

Abstract

(2S)‐6‐Fluoro‐4‐oxo‐3,4‐dihydro‐2H‐chromene‐2‐carboxylic acid, a key intermediate of Fidarestat, was synthesized from natural chiral pool D‐mannitol. Its structure was confirmed by optical analyses, elemental analyses, and IR, ¹H NMR, and ESI‐MS spectra.

Keywords:

• fidarestat
• intermediate
• 4‐oxochroman‐2‐carboxylic acid
• synthesis
