A concise synthesis of Fingolimod: an orally available drug for treating multiple sclerosis
نویسندگان
چکیده
A concise route for the synthesis of Fingolimod is reported. Starting from n-octylbenzene and 3-nitropropionic acid, a sequence of reactions consisting of Friedel-Crafts acylation, reduction, and double Henry reaction, followed by hydrogenation were applied to prepare Fingolimod with a yield of 31%, and an overall atom economy of 82.7%. Graphical AbstractStarting from 3-nitropropanyl chloride, Fingolimod was obtained in 4 steps with an overall yield of 31%.

Introduction: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a lifelong disease of the brain and spinal cord. Fingolimod is an oral drug which modulates the S1P receptor and is used for relapsing remitting form of MS and can causes rebound activity if it is ceased even in a short period of washout time. Case Report: Here, we introduce a young girl, a known case of MS, who developed revers...
