(2) background technology
Topiramate is pharmacy (the Johnson ﹠amp of U.S. Johnson ﹠ Johnson; Johnson) reuptake inhibitor of company exploitation, nineteen ninety-five goes on the market in Britain with trade(brand)name Topamax, clinically is used to control the primary partial epilepsy.
The chemical name of topiramate is: 2, and 3:4,5-pair-O-(1-methyl ethylidene)-β-D-pyrrole sulfamate, structural formula is as follows:
The disclosed preparation method of U.S. Pat 5387700A is shown in Scheme 1:
This method adopts batch process, and the first step is reacted with SULPHURYL CHLORIDE earlier, gets chlorsulfonic acid ester (ROSO
2Cl), the second step chlorsulfonic acid ester and ammonia gas react obtain topiramate.The shortcoming of this method is to adopt batch process, after the first step reaction is finished, removes separated from solvent and goes out product, and isolated solid is dissolving again in second organic solvent, and reaction obtains final product then.Caused needs to separate semi-stability, heat-labile chlorsulfonic acid ester (ROSO thus
2Cl) method of intermediate, and used ammonia in the second step reaction, and the solvent that uses is definitely anhydrous, this just need not have water treatment to solvent, increase workload and cost.
The disclosed preparation method of U.S. Pat 20040158081A is with U.S. Pat 5387700A, different is that it is to prepare topiramate with continuous processing, this has just solved the problem of bringing in the batch process, but it has still used ammonia and absolute anhydrous solvent carries out ammonolysis reaction.And the last aftertreatment of these two patented methods all will just can be taken crystal by the method for multistep recrystallization, has increased post-processing step; And in the suitability for industrialized production, there are more adverse factors in gas ratio liquid: as reaction unit the requirement of comparison strictness is arranged, as the requirement of aspects such as stopping property, crushing resistance; Unnecessary ammonia needs to reclaim, and this just needs gas concentration unit, has increased equipment cost; The operation of gas, transportation, storage do not have the convenience of liquid, safety.
(3) summary of the invention
The purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of method that is different from the prior art for preparing topiramate, this method avoids having used ammonia, make operational safety, easy, avoid using absolute anhydrous solvent, not needing does not have water treatment to solvent, reduce cost, avoided the multistep recrystallization, only needed method of extraction just can obtain solid, and yield is suitable with prior art, suitability for industrialized production.
For reaching goal of the invention the technical solution used in the present invention be:
The method route of preparation topiramate of the present invention is shown in Scheme 2.
This method is compound 2,3:4, and 5-is two-O-(1-methyl ethylidene)-D-pyranofructose chlorsulfonic acid ester and ammoniacal liquor prepared in reaction topiramate.Concrete, under 10~40 ℃, with compound 2,3:4,5-is two-and O-(1-methyl ethylidene)-D-pyranofructose chlorsulfonic acid ester is dissolved in the organic solvent, with ammoniacal liquor reaction after 3~8 hours, leaves standstill separatory, organic layer is used rare inorganic alkali lye and washing respectively, drying, and reconcentration just obtains topiramate to doing.
Organic solvent described here is and the immiscible organic solvent of water, as hydro carbons, and C particularly
5~C
12Hydrocarbon: as pentane, hexane, hexanaphthene, heptane, toluene etc.; C
2-C
6The ester class: as ethyl acetate.
Find in the experiment, effective with the solvent (as tetrahydrofuran (THF), acetone, acetonitrile) that immiscible solvent ratio of water and water dissolve each other, be mainly reflected in the yield height.
Described rare inorganic alkali lye is 1%~10% sodium hydroxide solution, 1%~10% sodium hydrogen carbonate solution etc.
The content of ammonia is 20~37% in the described ammoniacal liquor.
Described 2,3:4,5-is two-and O-(1-methyl ethylidene)-D-pyranofructose chlorsulfonic acid ester is 1: 5~15 with the ratio of the amount of substance of ammoniacal liquor.
Can add phase-transfer catalyst in the described reaction system, reaction effect with do not add comparing of phase-transfer catalyst and do not have clear superiority.
Compound 2,3:4, the preparation of 5-pair-O-(1-methyl ethylidene)-D-pyranofructose chlorsulfonic acid ester can be with reference to U.S. Pat 20040158081A or document " Chinese Journal of Pharmaceuticals ", 1999,30 (11), 486-487.
Preparation method's beneficial effect of topiramate of the present invention is mainly reflected in: with the aqueous ammonia to replace ammonia carry out that ammonolysis reaction brought easy and simple to handle, safety reduce equipment cost, and solvent need not have water treatment, only need extraction just can obtain solid in the aftertreatment, be beneficial to suitability for industrialized production.
