This paper describes a new synthesis method for Levetiracetam using dynamic kinetic resolution and ruthenium-catalysed ex-cell anodic oxidation. High throughput screening and enzymatic resolution techniques were used to identify the necessary variants for the synthesis. The developed route provides a more sustainable access to Levetiracetam than existing ones.
Levetiracetam is an active pharmaceutical ingredient widely used to treat epilepsy. We describe a new synthesis of levetiracetam by a dynamic kinetic resolution and a ruthenium-catalysed ex-cell anodic oxidation. For the enzymatic resolution, we tailored a high throughput screening method to identify Comamonas testosteroni nitrile hydratase variants with high (S)-selectivity and activity. Racemic nitrile was applied in a fed-batch reaction and was hydrated to (S)-(pyrrolidine-1-yl)butaneamide. For the subsequent oxidation to levetiracetam, we developed a ligand-free ruthenium-catalysed method at a low catalyst loading. The oxidant was electrochemically generated in 86% yield. This route provides a significantly more sustainable access to levetiracetam than existing routes.
