The preparation of DL Calciumlevofolinate be take folic acid conventionally as starting raw material, and folic acid carries out formylation reaction generation 5,10-CH2-THFA after being reduced to tetrahydrofolic acid (THFA) immediately, and the latter's hydrolysis under neutrallty condition adds calcium precipitation and obtains Calciumlevofolinate.In above-mentioned open source information, there are two factors to cause the quality product in industrial production to be difficult to guarantee.
First, in formylation step, due to formylation reagent large usage quantity, for formylation product can be separated out, therefore published data all relates to the concentration process of formylation reaction liquid; Secondly, in open loop step, all use the strong base solutions such as NaOH to regulate open loop system pH.
Test and show under acidic conditions, intermediate 5,10-CH2-THFA is to thermally labile, and its amido linkage is easily hydrolyzed.The formylation reagents such as formic acid are because boiling point is high, and the efficiency of underpressure distillation is had relatively high expectations to the vacuum tightness of distillation plant and distillation temperature.For at a lower temperature, (<60 ℃) steams formylation reagent, need reach the vacuum tightness of 0.095Mpa~0.1Mpa, and general industry working condition is difficult to realize, and improves the quality that Heating temperature must affect intermediate and finished product.
In open loop step; due to 5; 10-methylene tetrahydrofolate easily generates 10-formyl tetrahydrofolic acid (process of kinetic control, the document that sees reference [7]) under alkaline condition, according to open source information; under industrial scale, with strong base solution, regulate the pH value of open loop system; very easily cause local pH too high, generate 10 formylated by products, because such impurity solubleness is lower than calcium levofolinate; split process is usually separated out together along with separating out principal product, is difficult to remove.

Second aspect, in whole preparation method, is used formic acid at twice, thereby makes in every step formic acid usage quantity less, has so just avoided using the concentrated step of heating to remove formic acid; Add haloid acid to be preferably hydrochloric acid simultaneously and carry out crystallization operation, do not heating under the prerequisite of concentrated solvent, make 5,10-CH2-THFA be preferably hydrochloride form with halogen acid salt and separate out; Choice for use haloid acid in test, be because: nitric acid has oxidisability, even if rare nitric acid, the tetrahydrochysene pterin parent nucleus of folinic acid can be oxidized; And sulfuric acid also has oxidisability when concentration is high, even if use dilute sulphuric acid, the vitriol of 5,10-CH2-THFA is in open loop step, and the calcium ion that adds can be with open loop time of sulfate radical react to generate and precipitate, and affects quality product.Except using hydrochloric acid, other feasible haloid acid comprise Hydrogen bromide, hydroiodic acid HI;
The third aspect, in open loop step, with the weak middle strong base solution of alkalescence, replace wholly or in part highly basic to be preferably the pH value that NaOH solution regulates reaction system, the buffering system of utilizing weak organic bases and folinic acid derivative to form, guarantees that pH value can be stabilized in rational scope (6.5 ± 1.0).
Calcium levofolinate preparation method after the present invention improves, can realize the effective control to quality product under industrial amplification scale, avoid distilling the corrosive reagents such as formic acid under high temperature, reduced the requirement of production unit, be convenient to amplifieroperation, simultaneously owing to having reduced splitting step, yield that can larger raising finished product.
