Abstract

The present invention describes a novel process for the preparation of Moxonidine (Formula (I)).

Description

Improving one's methods for the manufacture of moxonidine
Technical field
The present invention relates to the novel method for the preparation of moxonidine (Moxonidine).
Background technology
The chloro-N-of 4-(imidazolidine-2-subunit)-6-methoxyl group-2-methylpyrimidine-5-amine has International Non-Proprietary Name (INN) moxonidine, and is used as antihypertensive drug.It has structural formula (I):
Moxonidine can by key intermediate, 4,6-bis-chloro-2-methyl-5-(1-ethanoyl-2-tetrahydroglyoxaline-2-base) aminopyrimidine (hereinafter referred to as DMAIA) preparation of structural formula (II):
U.S. Patent No. 4,323,570 disclose the method by making formula (II) compound and sodium methylate react to prepare moxonidine (I).
In CZ294649, disclose by using the reaction of alkaline carbonate to prepare the method for moxonidine by DMAIA in methyl alcohol.
EP1873151 proposes and uses alkali (such as sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide) for the reaction with DMAIA.
Challenge main in the reaction of DMAIA to moxonidine is the generation of some by products.European Pharmacopoeia (Ph.Eur.) lists following major impurity:
The chloro-N-of impurity A: 4,6-bis-(imidazolidine-2-subunit)-2-methylpyrimidine-5-amine (6-chlorine moxonidine):
Impurity B: N-(imidazolidine-2-subunit)-4,6-dimethoxy-2-methylpyrimidine-5-amine (4-methoxyl group-moxonidine):
Impurity C:5-[(imidazolidine-2-subunit) is amino]-6-methoxyl group-2-methylpyrimidine-4-alcohol (4-hydroxyl moxonidine):
The chloro-5-of impurity D:6-[(imidazolidine-2-subunit) is amino]-2-methylpyrimidine-4-alcohol (6-demethyl moxonidine)
Light absorbing impurty set by European Pharmacopoeia 7.0 is as follows:
Impurity A: be no more than 0.3%
Impurity B: be no more than 0.3%
Impurity C and D: be no more than 0.1%
Total impurities: be no more than 0.5%
Be it seems by disclosed method in the prior art, in order to meet the requirement of European Pharmacopoeia about impurity A and B, other re-crystallization step is enforceable.Such as, in 36 working examples altogether of EP1873151, the moxonidine (both include re-crystallization step) that only with good grounds example 34 and 36 obtains meets the limitation of impurity A and B.
The reason being difficult to simultaneously obtain low-level impurity A and B is obvious by figure below:
To be it is believed that to the reaction cascade of moxonidine by DMAIA and comprise the first de-acetyl step, cause forming " impurity A ".In the first step of replacing, first in two chlorine atoms, subsequently by the methoxy substitution from solvent methanol, produces moxonidine.In continuous print step of replacing, another chlorine substituent also by another methoxy substitution, directly produces impurity B.Be apparent that immediately by Fig. 1, impurity A is some " underaction " compared with moxonidine, because only there is acyl group to remove from DMAIA, and two Cl atoms still retain.On the other hand, can say impurity B compared with moxonidine some " overreact ", because not only a Cl substituting group is replaced (as in moxonidine) by methoxy substitution base, but two are all substituted.
Be it seems by prior art, the moxonidine with a small amount of impurity A and a small amount of impurity B may be produced hardly.If the reaction times is short, a large amount of hyporeactive impurity A can be left.On the other hand, the impurity B that the reaction times inevitably produces " overreact " is in a large number extended.When reduce impurity A and raising impurity B be formed with indivisible contact, other crystallisation step must be applied to meet the requirement of European Pharmacopoeia as above.
About impurity C and D, prior art is not mentioned.But, it is believed that at least for the EP1873151 employing hydroxide bases (such as NaOH and KOH), it is expected to the remarkable formation of hydroxyl impurity C and D.
In addition, the not open method of synthesizing moxonidine on a commercial scale of prior art document.Prior art only discloses the lot-size of several grams.
Therefore, the moxonidine that production quality is on a commercial scale good is needed.
For above-mentioned reasons, very surprisingly present inventor has found the robust method of synthesizing moxonidine in kg scale with high yield and the purity (not having other re-crystallization step) meeting European Pharmacopoeia requirement.
Summary of the invention
The invention provides commercial production moxonidine and do not need the method for other crystallisation step, it comprises the following steps:
-suspension of weak base in methyl alcohol is provided at the temperature of 50 DEG C to 65 DEG C
-DMAIA is divided into some parts be added into suspension
-after the interpolation completing DMAIA, be less than one hour again under mixture is remained on this temperature of reaction
-reaction mixture is cooled to lower than 30 DEG C being less than in 30 minutes
Suitable weak base can be selected from but be not limited to: salt of wormwood, sodium bicarbonate, sodium carbonate, saleratus, Quilonum Retard, cesium carbonate, lithium bicarbonate, cesium bicarbonate and composition thereof.
Because highly basic (such as alkali methylates or alkali metal hydroxide) significantly accelerates by DMAIA to the conversion of its substitution product, present method can not be applied to the reaction containing this quasi-alkali.
Salt of wormwood and/or sodium carbonate are preferred alkali, because it does not produce the water of the amount that can cause impurity C and D improved.Most preferred alkali is salt of wormwood.
Preferably, the mol ratio of weak base and DMAIA is in the scope of 1.95 to the 2.05 equivalent weak base relative to DMAIA.Use and be less than 1.95 times of excessive alkali (as EP1873151 institute proposes) and cause in reducing and the ability of hydrochloric acid (producing after replacement is from the chlorine atom of DMAIA), and caused the reaction times required for reaction to extend, and the amount of the impurity B of " overreact " that improve.On the other hand, use the alkali excessive relative to DMAIA > 2.05 times to cause forming more substantial inorganic salt, it unnecessarily makes workflow complicated.
Preferred use is relative to 100 to 120 times of molar excess of DMAIA, the preferably methyl alcohol of 110 to 120 times of molar excess.Importantly recognize and regulate the methanol content relevant with the content of DMAIA and alkali not to be simple one-parameter optimization because methyl alcohol is not only as solvent, and while as reagent.In addition, DMAIA and carbonate bases are only partly dissolved in methyl alcohol, and therefore reacting is not occur in the solution, but embody the suspension reaction in heterogeneous with heterogeneous equilibrium.
In order to accelerate as far as possible by DMAIA to the conversion of moxonidine, temperature of reaction preferably remains near the boiling point of methyl alcohol, namely in the scope of 60 DEG C to 65 DEG C.
Optionally DMAIA can be divided into 2 to 20 parts under this temperature of reaction, preferably 5 to 15 parts, even more preferably 8 to 10 parts are added into the suspension of suitable weak base in methyl alcohol.Consider that the reaction of DMAIA is heat release and occurs in suspension, the technique effect adding continuously the DMAIA of portioning keeps temperature of reaction constant and avoid producing agglomerate.
After interpolation DMAIA, mixture is preferably kept to less than 30 minutes at the reaction temperatures, more preferably 5 to 20 minutes, and most preferably 7 to 12 minutes to complete by DMAIA to the conversion of moxonidine, but avoid overreact.
In order to faster and more efficiently stopped reaction, reaction mixture is cooled to lower than 30 DEG C being less than in 30 minutes subsequently, is more preferably cooled to lower than 25 DEG C being less than in 30 minutes, and is even more preferably cooled to lower than 25 DEG C being less than in 20 minutes.
Optionally, reaction mixture, in 5 minutes or less time, preferably in 3 minutes or less time, is even more preferably additionally transferred to second through pre-cooled reactor being less than in 1 minute.
Optionally, process of cooling is strengthened further by frozen water and/or ice cube, liquid nitrogen, dry ice etc. being embedded in (inserting) to container.
Precipitation and the further work flow process of moxonidine can be carried out as described in the prior art.
As the result of whole method, create some advantages:
-total reaction time is significantly reduced to only several minutes by a few hours and a couple of days
-the most important thing is, level (especially impurity A and the N-(imidazolidine-2-subunit)-4 of impurity, the level of 6-dimethoxy-2-methylpyrimidine-5-amine (impurity B)) be reduced to far below 0.3%, and total impurities is reduced to far below 0.5%, thus meet the requirement of European Pharmacopoeia, and do not need crystallisation step that is other, time consumption and energy consumption, as shown in table 1.
Finally, aforesaid method is also suitable on a commercial scale (namely comprise 1kg or more DMAIA batch) high productivity and produces.
the preparation of preparation embodiment 1 to 3-moxonidine
By 102kg (128L, 3014.4mol) methyl alcohol and 7.7kg (55.6mol) salt of wormwood injecting reactor, mixture is stirred vigorously and is heated to 65 DEG C.8kgDMAIA (27.8mol) is divided into 8 parts to add in 20 minutes.The content of reactor under agitation remain on 65 DEG C other 7 to 12 minutes.By independent reaction mixture be cooled to further in 20 minutes and carry out stopped reaction through pre-cooled reactor lower than 25 DEG C being less than in 1 minute complete reaction mixture to be transferred to.
