Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 163 words
A process for a racemic or optically active compound of the formula or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt thereof, wherein X is N or CH; Y is Z is SCH₂, OCH₂, -Y¹(CH₂) n or Y¹(CH₂) n substituted on carbon with up to 2 methyl groups; n is 1 or 2; and Y¹ is CH₂, NH or NCH₃; which comprises reacting a racemic or optically active compound of the formula wherein X is N or CH; Y⁴ is HO-, RSO₂O-, or H₂N-; and R is (C₁-C₃)alkyl, phenyl or tolyl; (a) when Y⁴ is HO-, with a compound YH, wherein Y is as defined above, in the presence of a coupling reagent which is an approximately 1:1 molar mixture of diethyl azodicarboxylate and triphenylphosphine; (b) when Y⁴ is RSO₂O-, with an anion of the formula Y⁻ formed by the action of a base on a compound YH; or (c) when Y⁴ is H₂N- and Y is an imide, with an anhydride of the formula
