Abstract

The present invention relates to a kind of preparation methods of agomelatine, including raw material 4- toluenesulfonic acid 1- (cyano methyl) -7- methoxynaphthalene -2- base ester is reduced directly to 2- (7- methoxy-1-naphthyl) ethamine, it is then further converted into agomelatine.Reaction step of the present invention is few, yield/purity is high, post-processes simply.

Description

The preparation method of agomelatine
Technical field
The present invention relates to the preparation methods of field of medicaments more particularly to agomelatine.
Background technique
Agomelatine has double grading, and one side is the agonist of melatonin energy system receptor, on the other hand, It is 5-HT again2CThe antagonist of receptor.These properties make it have central nervous system activity, and more particularly make it have Treat Serious depression, seasonal Emotional Disorders, sleep disturbance, cardiovascular pathologies, digestive system symptom, the mistake as caused by the time difference It sleeps and fatigue, the activity of dysorexia and obesity.
More synthetic method is disclosed in the prior art, and starting material mainly has 7- methoxyl group -1-tetralone, (7- Methoxy-1-naphthyl) acetonitrile, (7- methoxy-1-naphthyl) ethyl alcohol etc., as patent specification EP0447285 is described by 7- first Oxy-1-tetralone starts to prepare agomelatine through eight steps, for another example in patent specification EP1564202, Shen It asks someone to develop a kind of much effective and capable of being industrialized route of synthesis, only there are four steps.These techniques disclose Ah Important as precursors 2- (7- methoxy-1-naphthyl) ethamine of Ge Meilating, but these process requirement aromatisation, for industrial point The step always becomes problem.
CN105793224 discloses a kind of synthetic method of agomelatine, and this method is from 7- methoxyl group-naphthalene -2- alcohol Starting, this new raw material have the advantages that simple and easily can largely obtain the raw material, 7- methoxyl group-at lower cost Naphthalene -2- alcohol, which also has the advantage that, has naphthalene nucleus system in its structure, this avoids the introducings of the aromatisation step in synthesis. The patent provides a series of sulfonate intermediates, such as 4- toluenesulfonic acid 1- (cyano methyl) -7- methoxynaphthalene -2- base ester.
Processing step in CN105793224 is more, for example first passes through reduction and slough sulfonate group (actually embodiment is only It confirms and uses H2, sodium borohydride restored), then convert amine for the side chain on naphthalene nucleus 1, and post-process complicated, lead to Multiple silica gel chromatography is often needed, total recovery is not high.Separately through retrieving, at present about in the document for preparing agomelatine, Catalytic hydrogenation or metal double oxide reduction method are used when restoring cyano, and (method of reduction cyano is also in CN105793224 Conventional thought).Catalytic hydrogenation is usually required using high pressure hydrogen, and metal double oxide such as lithium aluminium hydride reduction is excessively active, when reduction Heat release causes impurity to generate.
Summary of the invention
The present invention is directed to overcome the deficiencies of existing technologies, a kind of method of completely new synthesis agomelatine is provided.
Agomelatine preparation method of the invention, including by 4- toluenesulfonic acid 1- (cyano methyl) -7- methoxynaphthalene - 2- base ester is reduced directly to 2- (7- methoxy-1-naphthyl) ethamine (calling raw material A in the following text), is then further converted into the drawing of algebraic oriented language U.S. Spit of fland.
Preferably, the reducing agent that the reduction reaction uses is the borine that borane derivative replaces, such as one or two The borine that alkoxy replaces, the alkoxy can be the alkoxy of C1-C4, such as methoxy or ethoxy, as an example, of the invention Reducing agent be dimethoxy borine BH (OCH3)2Or diethoxy borine BH (OC2H5)2.Alkoxy borine herein can be straight Form (directly feed intake after prefabricated and participate in reduction reaction) is connect, can also be indirect form (by interim in the system of reduction reaction Reduction reaction is participated in after generation again), such as diborane is passed through in the methanol solution of raw material A, without prefabricated dimethoxy borine Solution.
Preferably, it can be chlorination such as nickel salt or platinum salt that the reduction reaction, which uses the salt of transition metal as catalyst, Nickel, nickel chloride can be with NiCl2·6H2The form of O provides.
Preferably, the molar ratio of the reducing agent and the raw material A is 10-20:1, such as 15:1.
Preferably, the temperature of the reduction reaction is 10-60 DEG C, such as 30-50 DEG C.
Preferably, the molar ratio of the catalyst and the raw material A is 1-3:1, more preferably 1:1.
Preferably, the time of the reduction reaction is 0.5-1.5 hours, such as 1 hour.
Preferably, the reduction reaction includes post-processing, and the post-processing includes making 2- (7- methoxy-1-naphthyl) ethamine At salt crystallization, such as hydrochloric acid salt or nitrate.Its salt is precipitated directly as an example, the aqueous solution of hydrochloric acid or nitric acid can be added, Precipitation Temperature can be low temperature, such as 0 DEG C, and the time, which is precipitated, can be 1-2h depending on speed of separating out.
Preferably, the operation for being converted into agomelatine includes by 2- (7- methoxy-1-naphthyl) ethamine or its salt Acetylation is carried out, acetylation herein includes one-step acylation, also includes that acetylation obtains again after carrying out a series of chemical modifications Agomelatine.The method such as EP0447285 routine can be used in acetylation, for another example, by 2- (7- methoxy-1-naphthyl) ethylamine salt Hydrochlorate is in the presence of alkali (such as sodium acetate) and acetic anhydride.
The beneficial effects of the present invention are:
1, the present invention looks for another way, and by direct-reduction, a step has converted the feedstock to agomelatine precursor 2- (7- first Oxy-1-naphthalene) ethamine, experimental implementation is enormously simplified, reaction yield and product purity are improved;
2, the present invention also optimizes the reaction conditions such as reducing agent, reduction temperature, has advanced optimized reaction yield and product Purity;
3, the present invention has also explored very easy post-processing approach, and agomelatine precursor by being at salt crystallization Can, obtained salt can be converted into agomelatine, and whole process is without complicated, expensive chromatogram purification.
