Description

Preparation method of leflunomide
Technical Field
The invention relates to a preparation process of a medicinal raw material drug, in particular to a novel preparation process of leflunomide serving as a medicinal raw material drug.
Background
Leflunomide (leflunomide) is the first new drug approved in the last decade specifically for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. The product has immunosuppressive and antiinflammatory effects, and has novel action mechanism, and it can inhibit cell adhesion and acid kinase activity, influence information transmission of cytokine, and inhibit activity of dihydroorotate dehydrogenase, thereby inhibiting proliferation of active lymphocyte related to rheumatoid arthritis. Animal experiments and clinical results show that leflunomide is the first effective therapeutic drug for slowing the progression of chronic diseases of rheumatoid arthritis by inhibiting local inflammation, connective tissue hyperplasia and the systemic reaction of arthritis, and not only can reduce various indications and symptoms of patients with rheumatoid arthritis, but also can prevent structural necrosis caused by the rheumatoid arthritis. The X-ray result shows that the product is obviously improved in the aspects of joint erosion, joint space narrowing and the like by using the product, which is different from the existing anti-rheumatoid arthritis drugs comprising methotrexate, sulfasalazine and the like, is the first drug showing definite curative effect on objective indexes, and has the characteristics of quick response, safe use, good tolerance, long-term taking by patients and the like.
In the preparation process of the leflunomide raw material medicine, the control of the content of 3-methyl isomer and 4-trifluoromethyl aniline of leflunomide is one of the key points in the quality control of the leflunomide raw material medicine. The high or low levels of these two impurities are critical to the adverse effects of the leflunomide formulation product. The quality standard of leflunomide raw material medicine approved by the national food and drug administration specifies that the content of leflunomide 3-methyl isomer is not more than 0.1 percent and the content of 4-trifluoromethyl aniline is not more than 0.25 percent. Leflunomide has the chemical formula structure:
Figure 418617DEST_PATH_IMAGE001
the high or low regioselectivity of the cyclization reaction to form the isoxazole ring in the leflunomide synthesis process is key to determining the high or low content of 3-methyl isomer of leflunomide. The cyclization reaction for forming an isoxazole ring is mainly carried out by the following methods:
(1) ethyl acetoacetate and N, N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal are reacted to obtain N, N-dimethylamino methylene ethyl acetoacetate, and then the ethyl acetoacetate and hydroxylamine hydrochloride are reacted under reflux in an alcohol solvent to obtain the 5-methyl isoxazole-4-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (J.Heterocyclic chem., 1991, 28, 453; journal of Chinese medical industry, 2002, 33, 53; first university of military medicine, 1999, 19, 256; Zilu's medicine, 2004, 23, 40.).
(2) Ethyl acetoacetate and triethyl orthoformate are reacted to obtain 2-ethoxymethylene ethyl acetoacetate, and then the ethyl 2-ethoxymethylene ethyl acetoacetate is condensed with hydroxylamine hydrochloride or hydroxylamine sulfate in an alcohol solvent in the presence of sodium acetate to obtain 5-methylisoxazole-4-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (J.chem.Soc., Perkin Trans.I, 1988, 1875; EP 0257882; WO 0160363; WO 03042193; J.Chinese medical industry, 2001, 32, 49; J.Chinese medical industry, 2002, 33, 158; J.Chinese medical industry, 2000, 31, 533; Chinese medical college, 2000, 31, 330; J.Chinese medicinal chemistry, 2000, 10, 199; J.Chinese medicinal chemistry, 2000, 10, 132.).
(3) Ethyl acetoacetate and triethyl orthoformate are reacted to obtain 2-ethoxymethylene ethyl acetoacetate, and the 2-ethoxymethylene ethyl acetoacetate is condensed with free hydroxylamine aqueous solution in alcohol solvent to obtain 5-methyl isoxazole-4-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (WO 2007086076).
(4) The 5-methyl isoxazole-4-carboxylic acid ethyl ester is obtained by condensing N, N-dimethylamino methylene acetoacetic acid ethyl ester and free hydroxylamine aqueous solution in an alcohol solvent (patent CN 101817798).
In the above method, WO2007086076 uses free hydroxylamine aqueous solution instead of hydroxylamine hydrochloride or hydroxylamine sulfate, and the method is reported in the patent to be beneficial to the improvement of regioselectivity, and the purity of the product is more than 98%, but the content of the 3-methyl isomer in the product is not clearly shown. In practice, we have found that none of the above methods provides good control of the 3-methyl isomer content of the leflunomide product, and that multiple recrystallizations are required in the synthesis process to achieve 3-methyl isomer contents of less than 0.1%. Repeated recrystallization not only causes the complexity of the synthesis process, but also causes higher production cost of leflunomide raw material medicine and influences the product quality. The patent CN101817798 directly uses N, N-dimethyl amino methylene acetyl acetate as raw material, does not directly explain the source of the raw material, and directly purchases the raw material to cause the production cost to be irretrievable.
In the reaction step of the final synthesis of amide from leflunomide, most of the literature reports that 5-methylisoxazole-4-carboxylic acid ethyl ester is hydrolyzed under acidic conditions to obtain 5-methylisoxazole-4-carboxylic acid, and then the 5-methylisoxazole-4-carboxylic acid ethyl ester reacts with thionyl chloride to prepare an acyl chloride intermediate, and the acyl chloride intermediate reacts with 4-trifluoromethylaniline step by step or in a one-pot method to obtain leflunomide. The method uses thionyl chloride, which not only causes a large amount of industrial waste gas and acidic waste water, but also causes serious industrial pollution and serious equipment corrosion. In addition, part of the documents use more than 2 times of molar weight of 4-trifluoromethyl aniline for condensation with acyl chloride, so that the method not only causes the waste of raw materials and the increase of production cost, but also causes the content of the 4-trifluoromethyl aniline in the final leflunomide product to exceed the standard, and influences the quality of the leflunomide product.
