Development and Application of a New Class of Halogenated Reagents to Commercially Valuable Targets

Objective

The aim of this project is to expand upon a newly discovered platform reaction by developing new routes to Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) Tolterodine and Ezetimibe and other advanced intermediates for the manufacture of drugs (i.e. benzylic fluorides and alcohols). It is planned that this platform will serve to enhance the competitveness of the European pharmaceutical manufacturing industry as it continues to face increased competition from other economies

In order to achieve this aim we need to bring together expertise in
(i) Organic Synthesis [Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland, “RCSI”]
(ii) Enantioselective fluorination [Nagoya University Japan, “Nagoya”]
(iii) Drug development and production [Integrated Research in Biotechnology & Medicine, “IRBM”]

To meet the aim we have divided the project into the following work packages:
WP1: Development of a new synthesis of Tolterodine.
WP2: Scale up of synthesis of Tolterodine.
WP3: Development of a new synthesis of Ezetimibe.
WP4: Scale up of synthesis of Ezetimibe.
WP5: Exemplification of alkoxylation to prepare enantiopure benzylic alcohols API intermediates
WP6: Preparation of benzylic fluorides
WP7: Management, Training, Dissemination & Communication

Fields of science (EuroSciVoc)

CORDIS classifies projects with EuroSciVoc, a multilingual taxonomy of fields of science, through a semi-automatic process based on NLP techniques. See: https://op.europa.eu/en/web/eu-vocabularies/euroscivoc.

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Funding Scheme

Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.

Net EU contribution

Net EU financial contribution. The sum of money that the participant receives, deducted by the EU contribution to its linked third party. It considers the distribution of the EU financial contribution between direct beneficiaries of the project and other types of participants, like third-party participants.
