Definitions
- the present invention relates to novel compounds, to processes for preparing them and to their use in treating medical disorders.
- Pharmaceutical products with antidepressant and anti-Parkinson properties are described in US-A-3912743 and US-A-4007196.
- An especially important compound among those disclosed is paroxetine, the (-)trans isomer of 4-(4'-fluorophenyl)-3-(3',4 - methylenedioxy-phenoxymethyl)-piperidine. This compound is used in therapy as the hydrochloride salt for the treatment and prophylaxis of inter alia depression, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) and panic.
- OCD obsessive compulsive disorder
- Tartaric, glutamic, lactic and mandelic acids exist in enantiomeric forms and this invention includes salts with both the D and L-acids and racemic mixtures thereof, as well as with the symmetric me.sO-tartaric acid.
- Sulphuric, tartaric, oxalic, fumaric, glutamic, and succinic acids are dibasic and the invention therefore includes both salts in which the ratio of paroxetine to acid (by mole) is 1 : 1 and salts in which the ratio of paroxetine to acid (by mole) is 2: 1, as well as mixed salts with, for example, an alkali metal or ammonium cation.
- Citric and phosphoric acids are tribasic and the invention therefore includes salts in which the ratio of paroxetine to acid (by mole) is 1:1, 2: 1, and 3:1 respectively, as well as mixed salts with, for example, an alkali metal or ammonium cation.
- novel salts of this invention are provided in non-crystalline form, which may take the form of a solid or an oil.
- the oil is preferably absorbed on a solid carrier, especially a carrier that is usable as a component of a pharmaceutical composition.
- novel salts of this invention are provided in crystalline form. When the crystalline form exists as more than one polymorph, each polymorph forms another aspect of this invention.
- -1- Paroxetine salts may be prepared by contacting stoichiometric amounts of the acid (enantiomer or racemic mixture) and paroxetine free base.
- the base and/or the acid is in solution, more preferably both are in solution.
- Mixed salts can be prepared by forming the precursor 1 : 1 or hydrogen salt (of paroxetine with the acid, or the metal or ammonium ion with the acid) in situ or using it preformed in solution.
- paroxetine free base for example toluene, alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, propan-2-ol, esters such as ethyl acetate, ketones such as acetone and butanone, halogenated hydrocarbons such as dichloromethane, and ethers such as tetrahydrofuran and diethyl ether.
- concentration of paroxetine base is preferably in the range 5 to 50% weight/volume, more preferably in the range 10 to 30%.
- Suitable solvents for the acids used in accordance with the present invention include water, lower alcohols such as methanol, ethanol and isopropanol, ethers such as diethyl ether and tetrahydrofuran, hydrocarbons such as toluene and benzene, esters such as ethyl acetate, ketones such as acetone, butanone and isobutyl methyl ketone, and halogenated hydrocarbons such as chloroform.
- the concentration of the acid is preferably in the range 0.1 to 6.0 molar, for example 0.5 to 4.0 molar, in particular 1.0 to 3.0 molar. Elevated temperatures may be used to enhance solubility.
- the concentration of glutamic acid is preferably in the range 0.01 to 1.0 molar, in particul.ar 0.1 to 0.5 mol.ar.
- the acids may also be used in the form of a soluble salt such as the ammonium salt or a salt of an amine, for example ethylamine or diethylamine.
- the paroxetine salts may be isolated in solid form by conventional means from a solution thereof obtained as above.
- the non-crystalline salts may be prepared by precipitation, spray drying, and freeze drying of solutions, or vacuum drying of oils, or solidification of melts obtained from reaction of the free base and the acid.
- the crystalline salts may be prepared by directly crystallising from a solvent in which the product has limited solubility, or by triturating or otherwise crystallising a non- crystalline salt.
- An improved yield of the salt is obtained by evaporation of some or all of the solvent or by crystallisation at elevated temperature followed by controlled cooling, preferably in stages. Careful control of precipitation temperature and seeding may be used to improve the reproducibity of the production process and the particle size distribution and form of the product.
- An alternative method of preparing paroxetine salts is to start with a salt of paroxetine with an organic acid, such as acetic acid or maleic acid.
- Another salt of paroxetine as a starting material is suitable for preparation of the crystalline salt or, if a volatile acid such as acetic acid is used, non-crystalline salts by methods that involve evaporation (such as freeze-drying and spray-drying).
- water Prior to the isolation of the paroxetine salt, water may be removed by azeotropic distillation to avoid the formation of hydrates or to obtain the product in anhydrous form.
- suitable solvents for the solution of the salt are those which form an azeotrope with water, such as toluene, pyridine, isopropanol, isobutyl methyl ketone and xylene. It should also be appreciated that mixtures of solvents can also be used to aid the azeotropic removal of water.
- crystallization may be carried out from any solvent which allows formation of the desired crystal structure, using seeds of the desired structure where necessary or desirable.
- individual polymorphs are preferably crystallized directly from a solution of the salt, although recrystallizing a solution of one polymorph using seeds of another polymorph may also be carried out.
- Sulphate water, butan-1-ol, butan-2-ol. Tartrates: ethanol, methanol, isopropanol, toluene.
- Oxalates ethanol, methanol, acetone, tetrahydrofuran.
- Fumarates methanol, butanol, tetrahydrofuran.
- Propionate hexane, cyclohexane, chloroform.

- Mandelate isopropanol, toluene.
- Glycinate As used for salt formation.
- the salt may obtained as a solvate or hydrate, when during isolation from solution it becomes associated with the solvent in which it is dissolved. Any such solvate or hydrate forms a further aspect of this invention.
- Solvates may be returned to the unsolvated salt by heating, for example by oven-drying, or by treatment with a displacement solvent which does not form a solvate.
- Paroxetine free base may be prepared according to the procedures generally outlined in US Patent No 4,007,196 and EP-B-0223403. The acids are commercially available.

Description
SALTS OF PAROXETINE
The present invention relates to novel compounds, to processes for preparing them and to their use in treating medical disorders. Pharmaceutical products with antidepressant and anti-Parkinson properties are described in US-A-3912743 and US-A-4007196. An especially important compound among those disclosed is paroxetine, the (-)trans isomer of 4-(4'-fluorophenyl)-3-(3',4 - methylenedioxy-phenoxymethyl)-piperidine. This compound is used in therapy as the hydrochloride salt for the treatment and prophylaxis of inter alia depression, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) and panic.
We have now surprisingly discovered novel salts of paroxetine which may be used as an alternative to the currently marketed hydrochloride, or as an intermediate in the preparation of the hydrochloride.
According to the present invention there is provided a novel salt of paroxetine with an acid selected from the group consisting of sulphuric, tartaric, oxalic, fumaric, propionic, formic, glutamic, succinic, benzoic, citric, nitric, phosphoric, 4-methylbenzenesulphonic, hypophosphorous, lactic, and mandelic acids and glycine.
Tartaric, glutamic, lactic and mandelic acids exist in enantiomeric forms and this invention includes salts with both the D and L-acids and racemic mixtures thereof, as well as with the symmetric me.sO-tartaric acid.
Sulphuric, tartaric, oxalic, fumaric, glutamic, and succinic acids are dibasic and the invention therefore includes both salts in which the ratio of paroxetine to acid (by mole) is 1 : 1 and salts in which the ratio of paroxetine to acid (by mole) is 2: 1, as well as mixed salts with, for example, an alkali metal or ammonium cation. Citric and phosphoric acids are tribasic and the invention therefore includes salts in which the ratio of paroxetine to acid (by mole) is 1:1, 2: 1, and 3:1 respectively, as well as mixed salts with, for example, an alkali metal or ammonium cation.
In one aspect the novel salts of this invention are provided in non-crystalline form, which may take the form of a solid or an oil. The oil is preferably absorbed on a solid carrier, especially a carrier that is usable as a component of a pharmaceutical composition. In another aspect the novel salts of this invention are provided in crystalline form. When the crystalline form exists as more than one polymorph, each polymorph forms another aspect of this invention.

Paroxetine salts may be prepared by contacting stoichiometric amounts of the acid (enantiomer or racemic mixture) and paroxetine free base. Preferably the base and/or the acid is in solution, more preferably both are in solution. Mixed salts can be prepared by forming the precursor 1 : 1 or hydrogen salt (of paroxetine with the acid, or the metal or ammonium ion with the acid) in situ or using it preformed in solution.
Most commonly used solvents .are suitable for mobilising paroxetine free base, for example toluene, alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, propan-2-ol, esters such as ethyl acetate, ketones such as acetone and butanone, halogenated hydrocarbons such as dichloromethane, and ethers such as tetrahydrofuran and diethyl ether. The concentration of paroxetine base is preferably in the range 5 to 50% weight/volume, more preferably in the range 10 to 30%.
Suitable solvents for the acids used in accordance with the present invention include water, lower alcohols such as methanol, ethanol and isopropanol, ethers such as diethyl ether and tetrahydrofuran, hydrocarbons such as toluene and benzene, esters such as ethyl acetate, ketones such as acetone, butanone and isobutyl methyl ketone, and halogenated hydrocarbons such as chloroform. The concentration of the acid (other than glutamic acid) is preferably in the range 0.1 to 6.0 molar, for example 0.5 to 4.0 molar, in particular 1.0 to 3.0 molar. Elevated temperatures may be used to enhance solubility. The concentration of glutamic acid is preferably in the range 0.01 to 1.0 molar, in particul.ar 0.1 to 0.5 mol.ar. The acids may also be used in the form of a soluble salt such as the ammonium salt or a salt of an amine, for example ethylamine or diethylamine.
The paroxetine salts may be isolated in solid form by conventional means from a solution thereof obtained as above. For example, the non-crystalline salts may be prepared by precipitation, spray drying, and freeze drying of solutions, or vacuum drying of oils, or solidification of melts obtained from reaction of the free base and the acid.
The crystalline salts may be prepared by directly crystallising from a solvent in which the product has limited solubility, or by triturating or otherwise crystallising a non- crystalline salt. An improved yield of the salt is obtained by evaporation of some or all of the solvent or by crystallisation at elevated temperature followed by controlled cooling, preferably in stages. Careful control of precipitation temperature and seeding may be used to improve the reproducibity of the production process and the particle size distribution and form of the product.
An alternative method of preparing paroxetine salts is to start with a salt of paroxetine with an organic acid, such as acetic acid or maleic acid. Use of another salt of paroxetine as a starting material is suitable for preparation of the crystalline salt or, if a volatile acid such as acetic acid is used, non-crystalline salts by methods that involve evaporation (such as freeze-drying and spray-drying).
Prior to the isolation of the paroxetine salt, water may be removed by azeotropic distillation to avoid the formation of hydrates or to obtain the product in anhydrous form.
In that case, suitable solvents for the solution of the salt are those which form an azeotrope with water, such as toluene, pyridine, isopropanol, isobutyl methyl ketone and xylene. It should also be appreciated that mixtures of solvents can also be used to aid the azeotropic removal of water.
More generally, crystallization may be carried out from any solvent which allows formation of the desired crystal structure, using seeds of the desired structure where necessary or desirable. When polymorphs exist, individual polymorphs are preferably crystallized directly from a solution of the salt, although recrystallizing a solution of one polymorph using seeds of another polymorph may also be carried out.
Suitable solvent systems for crystallising/recrystallising salts of the present invention are set out below:
Sulphate: water, butan-1-ol, butan-2-ol. Tartrates: ethanol, methanol, isopropanol, toluene.
Oxalates: ethanol, methanol, acetone, tetrahydrofuran.
Fumarates: methanol, butanol, tetrahydrofuran.
Propionate: hexane, cyclohexane, chloroform.
Formate: diethyl ether, water, alcohols, toluene, ethyl acetate. Glutamates: water, methanol, toluene/hexane.
Succinates: toluene, acetone, or lower alcohols followed by precipitation with ethyl acetate, ether, or hexane. Paroxetine succinate may be recrystallised by cooling and optionally seeding hot solutions in suitable solvents such as butan-1-ol or acetonitrile.
Benzoate: As used for salt formation. Citrate: As used for salt formation.
Nitrate: toluene, toluene/cyclohexane, isopropanol.
Phosphate: toluene, ehtanol, tetrahydrofuran, isopropanol.
4-Methylbenzenesulphonate: toluene or lower alcohols followed by precipitation with ether or hexane.
Hypophosphite: toluene or lower alcohols followed by precipitation with ether or hexane. Lactate: As used for salt formation.
Mandelate: isopropanol, toluene. Glycinate: As used for salt formation.
The salt may obtained as a solvate or hydrate, when during isolation from solution it becomes associated with the solvent in which it is dissolved. Any such solvate or hydrate forms a further aspect of this invention. Solvates may be returned to the unsolvated salt by heating, for example by oven-drying, or by treatment with a displacement solvent which does not form a solvate.
Paroxetine free base may be prepared according to the procedures generally outlined in US Patent No 4,007,196 and EP-B-0223403. The acids are commercially available.
The compounds of this invention may be used to treat and prevent the following disorders:
Alcoholism Anxiety
Depression Obsessive Compulsive Disorder Panic Disorder Chronic Pain
Obesity Senile Dementia
Migraine Bulimia
Anorexia Social Phobia
Pre-Menstrual Syndrome (PMS) Adolescent Depression Trichotillom.ania Dysthymia

These disorders are herein after referred to as "the Disorders". The present invention further provides a method for treating and/or preventing any one or more of the Disorders by administering an effective and/or prophylactic amount of a salt of the invention to a sufferer in need thereof.
The present invention further provides a pharmaceutical composition for use in the treatment and/or prevention of the Disorders which comprises an admixture of a salt of the invention with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
The present invention also provides the use of a salt of the invention for treating and/or preventing the Disorders.
The present invention also provides the use of a salt of the invention in the manufacture of a medicament for treating and/or preventing the Disorders. Most suitably the present invention is applied to the treatment of depression, OCD and panic.
The compositions of this invention are usually adapted for oral administration, but formulations for dissolution for parental administration are also within the scope of this invention. The composition is usually presented as a unit dose composition containing from 1 to 200 mg of active ingredient calculated on a free base basis, more usually from 5 to lOOmg, for example 10 to 50mg such as 10, 12.5, 15, 20, 25, 30 or 40mg by a human patient. Most preferably unit doses contain 20mg of active ingredient calculated on a free base basis. Such a composition is normally taken from 1 to 6 times daily, for example 2, 3 or 4 times daily so that the total amount of active agent administered is within the range 5 to 400mg of active ingredient calculated on a free base basis. Most preferably the unit dose is taken once a day.
Preferred unit dosage forms include tablets or capsules.
The compositions of this invention may be formulated by conventional methods of admixture such as blending, filling and compressing.
Suitable carriers for use in this invention include a diluent, a binder, a disintegrant, a colouring agent, a flavouring agent and/or preservative. These agents may be utilized in conventional manner, for example in a manner similar to that already used for marketed anti-depressant agents.

Example 17 : Preparation of crystalline 2: 1 salt with L(+)-tartaric acid. L(+)-potassium hydrogen tartrate (1.0 g) was heated in a mixture of ethanol (120 ml) and water (40 ml) to form a solution. Paroxetine base (4.2 g) in toluene (10 ml) was added and the mixture stirred at ambient temperature for several hours but remained clear. The solvent was therefore removed by evaporation and the residue redissolved in toluene. The evaporation procedure was repeated and the residue stirred with fresh toluene for 30 minutes to form a crystalline product, which was filtered, washed in toluene and dried under reduced pressure. Yield 2.18 g. IR nujol mull:
