Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of high purity 1-[2-(2-hydroxy ethoxy) ethyl] preparation method of piperazine; Be specifically related to prepare intermediate 1-[2-(2-hydroxy ethoxy) ethyl of anti-mental disease therapeuticing medicine quetiapine fumarate] preparation method of piperazine.
Background technology
1-[2-(2-hydroxy ethoxy) ethyl] piperazine, be called for short HEEP, outward appearance is colourless to light yellow viscous liquid, and CAS registration number is [13349-82-1], and molecular structure is as general formula I:
General formula I
Synthetic quetiapine fumarate has the report of multiple route, but route the most practical, that have economic worth is most the use dibenzo [b reporting in patent EP240228, f] [1,4] sulphur azatropylidene-11-ketone makes the scheme of Quetiapine after chloro with key intermediate HEEP condensation, and HEEP is most important intermediate in Quetiapine preparation process.
The simplest synthetic route of HEEP is taking piperazine as starting material and 2-(2-chloroethoxy) ethanol under alkaline condition, condensation reaction occurs and makes.Reaction formula is as follows.
But this synthetic method is owing to sending on piperazine two imido grpup chemical environments identical, condensation reaction meeting produces a large amount of di-substituted impurity that waits, total recovery only has 55%, gas phase purity is lower than 85%, for addressing this problem, need to adopt the repeatedly mode of rectifying removal of impurities, each purification approximately will be lost the finished product of 5-8%, cause like this products production cost very high, on market, lack competitive power.
Some researchs think that this may be that halogen reactive behavior causes too by force, and reaction is improved, and use Tosyl chloride (TsCl) to react with glycol ether, generate the glycol ether ester of sulfonylation, make next step form monosubstituted thing control condition comparatively easy.Reaction formula is as follows.
But this method does not have the basic problem that solves reaction yet, be first that glycol ether ester and the piperazine reaction of sulfonylation still has dibasic problem.Secondly; Tosyl chloride (TsCl) reacts itself and also can produce the situation of disulfonyl with glycol ether; the raw material of the glycol ether ester of the sulfonylation using itself just has dibasic problem; also can produce corresponding impurity; react downwards and prepare HEEP with such raw material, impurity situation is below more complicated.
For solving dibasic problem, patent Be556239 has reported a kind of method, using piperazinecarboxylic acid ethyl ester as raw material, under alkaline condition, makes HEEP with the ethanol condensed hydrolysis again of 2-(2-chloroethoxy).Reaction formula is as follows.
This route is first protected one side of piperazine; avoid the generation of disubstitution product impurity; but starting raw material piperazinecarboxylic acid ethyl ester is difficult to obtain; raw materials cost is higher; secondly reaction scheme extends relatively; total recovery is low, and the insufficient of hydrolysis reaction also will introduce new impurity simultaneously, and these have all limited the suitability for industrialized production of this route.
In above multiple preparation method, all have different defects, or in product, the impurity such as piperazine raw material, two substituted-piperazinyl, hydroxyethyl piperazine exceeds standard seriously, or raw material sources are difficult to obtain, high expensive, the shortage market competitiveness.
