Description

A kind of purification process of Abiraterone acetate
Technical field
The invention belongs to technical field of medicine synthesis, be specifically related to a kind of purification process of Abiraterone acetate.
Background technology
Prostate cancer is the malignant tumour betided in human male prostate tissue, it is the result of prostatic acini cellular abnormality random growth, European countries' prostate-cancer incidence is high, mortality ratio is only second to lung cancer, the sickness rate of Asian countries's prostate cancer is in the trend risen rapidly, and the sickness rate of prostate cancer in China's male urinary, reproductive system malignant tumour has leapt to the 3rd.Abiraterone acetate is a kind of targeted cells pigment CYP17 (17 α-hydroxylase/C17,20-lyase) inhibitor, and Cytochrome P450 17A1 plays an important role in the generation of testosterone.Abiraterone acetate, just by T suppression cell pigment CYP17, reduces the generation of testosterone and works.On April 28th, 2011, food and drug administration have approved Abiraterone acetate (trade(brand)name: Zytiga) and (has another name called prednisone with prednisone, a kind of steroid medicine) combine treatment for previously accepting transitivity castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) patient treated containing the chemotherapy regimen of docetaxel, in December, 2012, U.S. FDA approval Zytiga expands the treatment for patient before late period (transitivity) castration-resistant prostate cancer chemotherapy.Increase anti-breast cancer indication, be in the clinical III phase at present.The chemical name of Abiraterone acetate: (3 β)-17-(3-pyridyl)-androstane-5,16-dien-3-ols acetic ester, molecular formula: C 26h 33nO 2, molecular weight: 391.55.Be down the chemical structural formula of Abiraterone acetate, Abiraterone acetate is the prodrug of Abiraterone.
The syntheti c route of Abiraterone acetate mainly contains two.Patent WO9320097, CN102030798, WO 2006021777, WO2006021776, J.Med.Chem.38,2463-2471,1995, waits the synthetic route one of bibliographical information as follows:
Its synthetic route take Dehydroepiandrosterone Acetate as starting material, the first step adopts dichloromethane solvent, 2,6-di-t-butyl-4-picoline is attached sour agent, with trifluoroacetic acid anhydride reactant, use normal hexane recrystallization after product column chromatography purification, obtain 17-triflate Dehydroepiandrosterone Acetate, yield 58%.Second step suizik reacts, at sodium carbonate, and dual-triphenylphosphine palladium chloride ((PPh 3) 2pdCl 2) under existence, carry out Suzuki linked reaction at 80 DEG C with diethyl (3-pyridyl) borine, after column chromatography purification, normal hexane recrystallization, obtains Abiraterone acetate, yield 84%.Pass through two-step reaction total recovery in document less than 50%, and often walk all through column chromatography purification.Can be there is larger problem in this technique, be not suitable for suitability for industrialized production in industrialized production.Organic bases 2, the 6-bis--tertiary butyl-4-picoline (DTBMP) used in preparation, trifluoromethanesulfanhydride anhydride and diethyl-3-pyridyl borine are all very expensive.DTBMP participates in reaction and easily side reaction occurs, and causes the ethanoyl of dehydroepiandrosterone to be eliminated, and generates the by product being difficult to remove.
Patent GB 2282377, WO9509178, Org.Prep.Proced.Int, 1997,29 (l), 123-134, then report another synthetic method, and synthetic route two is as follows:
this route take dehydroepiandrosterone as raw material, first reacts with hydrazine hydrate under hydrazonium sulfate catalysis, forms dehydroepiandrosterone-17-hydrazone, then under the catalysis of tetramethyl guanidine, 17-iodo-androstane-5,16-diene-3beta-alcohol is obtained again, then at palladium reagent ((PPh with Iod R 3) 2pdCl 2) under catalysis, carry out Suzuki linked reaction with diethyl-3-pyridyl borine, obtain Abiraterone, finally Abiraterone acetylize is obtained Abiraterone acetate.The first step hydrazine hydrate, hydrazonium sulfate, react 3 days, reactant is poured into water precipitation product, is obtained by filtering separation.Yield 98%; Second step THF is solvent, and 1,1,3,3-tetramethyl guanidine is alkali, 0 DEG C of reaction, filters, concentrated, washing after dissolving, concentrated dry, recrystallization, yield 90%; 3rd step 80 DEG C reaction 48 hours, ether extraction, concentrates tetrahydrofuran (THF) (THF), crude product re crystallization from toluene, yield: 56%; 4th step ether, triethylamine, DMAP catalyzer, Acetyl Chloride 98Min. room temperature reaction 12 hours, filters, and filtrate concentrates, and first uses ethanol/water=1:1 recrystallization, rear normal hexane recrystallization, yield 84%.Or carry out acetylize with diacetyl oxide under pyridine condition.The time of whole reaction is long, the first step three days, three-step reaction 48 hours, is difficult to carry out suitability for industrialized production.Hydrazine hydrate toxicity is comparatively large, and experimental implementation danger is high, brings white elephant to three-protection design, and diethyl-3-pyridyl borine is very expensive, needs column chromatography for separation, is not suitable for suitability for industrialized production.
The Abiraterone acetate purity that route of these two lines obtains is all undesirable, all needs to adopt column chromatography method purifying, product purity and yield on the low side, be not suitable for suitability for industrialized production.And be applicable to becoming salt refining to be technique the most feasible in industrialized process for refining.
It is also the mode adopting said synthesis route one in document CN101044155, when mentioning the first step and trifluoromethanesulfonic acid anhydride reactant in document, there is the raw material reaction of about 25% not complete, but do not go separation and purification, directly carry out next step Suzuki linked reaction, the product obtained is more assorted, the Dehydroepiandrosterone Acetate having unreacted complete, diethyl (3-pyridyl) borine etc., also has some by products.Amplify to realize technique in document, the mode that have employed salify carries out purifying.Route as shown in the formula:
But the purification process of this technique is when methylsulfonic acid and Abiraterone acetate salify, the reaction solution obtained is the suspension of very thickness, be difficult to be separated by filtering, and easily cause the parcel of impurity, dissociating after needing further recrystallization purifying obtains Abiraterone acetate again.And methylsulfonic acid Ester is potential genotoxicity impurity, certain impact is brought on the quality of product and security.When the first step forms triflate, change 2,6-di-t-butyl-4-picolines in WO9320097, use comparatively cheap triethylamine instead, effect is suitable.
Document CN102030798, on the Research foundation of document CN101044155, have studied and carries out purifying by the mode of trifluoromethanesulfonic acid and Abiraterone salify.Although there is certain effect on purifying, the product obtained is greater than the impurity existence of 1% in addition.
WO2006021776 (CN101044155) and WO2006021777 disclose a kind of become the method for mesylate, CN101044155 embodiment 3 also openly can select hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid, form Abiraterone acetate hydrochloride or Abiraterone acetate vitriol, fluoroform sulphonate method is disclosed in CN201010597372 (publication No.: CN102030798), CN201110318824 (publication No.: CN103059090) discloses into oxalate method, CN201210039644 (publication No.: CN103254265) discloses into trifluoroacetate method, CN201210201917 (publication No.: CN102731605) discloses into phosphatic method.These salifying methods can obtain the good Abiraterone acetate salt of purity.But according to the general inorganic alkaline hydrolysis salt worker skill of these patent reports, (Abiraterone acetate salt adds methylene dichloride; stirring and dissolving; add sodium bicarbonate and water or sodium carbonate and water or 20% sodium bicarbonate aqueous solution or 20% aqueous sodium carbonate; stir separatory; water layer dichloromethane extraction; merge organic phase; organic phases washed with water; anhydrous sodium sulphate or dried over mgso, suction filtration, concentrated free Abiraterone acetate) institute obtains in product and contains the deacetylated product Abiraterone (being shown below) of more Abiraterone acetate.
