(1) adding 1600kg of atorvastatin mother nucleus M4 (namely compound VI) crude product 1 into a reaction kettle with the volume of 5000L, adding 5000kg of water, stirring and mixing, dropwise adding hydrochloric acid to adjust the pH value, controlling the dropwise adding amount of the hydrochloric acid by using a DCS control reaction kettle system capable of regulating and controlling the pH value in the embodiment 1, setting the pH value interval to be 5.60-6.40, opening a first electric control valve 12 for dropwise adding of the hydrochloric acid when the pH value is greater than the interval value, closing the first electric control valve 12 when the pH value is 6.00, and stopping dropwise adding;
pulping for 2 hours at room temperature, centrifuging, drying under reduced pressure, controlling the water content to be less than or equal to 1 percent to obtain 1485kg of atorvastatin mother nucleus M4 crude product 2, and detecting by HPLC, wherein the content of atorvastatin mother nucleus M4 in the crude product 2 is 99.20 percent, the water content is 0.045 percent, and the content of each impurity is as follows: 0.080% of impurity II (defluorinated impurity), 0.03% of impurity III (m-fluorine impurity), 0.010% of impurity I (o-fluorine impurity), 0.01% of impurity IV (compound III), 0.21% of impurity V (dibromo impurity of compound III), and 0.021% of unknown impurity RRT 1.15;
(2) sequentially adding the whole batch of atorvastatin mother nucleus M4 crude product 2 and 4905kg of mixed solvent in the step (1) into a 5000L reaction kettle, dissolving, dropwise adding glacial acetic acid to adjust the pH value, controlling the dropwise adding amount of the glacial acetic acid by using a DCS control reaction kettle system capable of adjusting and controlling the pH value in the embodiment 1, setting the pH value interval to be 5.70-5.80, opening a second electric control valve 42 to dropwise add hydrochloric acid when the pH value is greater than the interval value, closing the second electric control valve 42 and stopping dropwise adding when the pH value is 5.80; the mixed solvent is a mixed solvent of methanol and dichloromethane, wherein the mass fraction of the methanol is 45%;
then carrying out hot reflux for 1 hour at the temperature of 40-50 ℃, carrying out suction filtration while the solution is hot, concentrating the filtrate at the temperature of 65 ℃ under normal pressure, recovering 2970kg of the mixed solvent, cooling the concentrated solution to 4-7 ℃, carrying out heat preservation crystallization for 1 hour, centrifuging, and drying at the temperature of 65 ℃ under reduced pressure (the vacuum degree is 0.09MPa) for 4 hours to obtain 1415kg of refined compound VI (atorvastatin mother nucleus M4);
by taking atorvastatin mother nucleus M4 crude product 2 as a reference, the weight yield of a refined product is 95.32%, and through detection, the content of atorvastatin mother nucleus M4 is 99.95%, the content of impurity II (defluorinated impurity) is 0.020%, impurity III (M-fluorine impurity), impurity I (o-fluorine impurity), impurity V (dibromo impurity of compound III) and impurity V (dibromo impurity of compound III) are not detected, and the unknown impurity RRT1.15, the content of which is 0.008% and the melting point of which is 202.2-203.5 ℃.
Comparative example 1
The refining step in the comparative example 1 is basically the same as that in the example 2, except that hydrochloric acid is not added in the step (1) to adjust the pH value, pulping is directly carried out, and the finally obtained atorvastatin mother nucleus M4 crude product 2 contains an unknown impurity RRT1.15 with the content of 0.7 percent in addition to the impurity II, the impurity III, the impurity I, the impurity IV and the impurity V through detection; and (3) regulating the pH value without adding glacial acetic acid in the step (2), directly carrying out hot reflux, and detecting that the obtained refined atorvastatin mother nucleus M4 product contains not only impurities but also unknown impurity RRT1.15 with the content of 0.5%.
Compared with the example 2, the comparison example 1 shows that the content of the unknown impurity RRT1.15 can be reduced by accurately regulating and controlling the pH value in the reaction process, so that the purity and the quality of the refined atorvastatin mother nucleus M4 product are improved.
The above examples are illustrative of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the above examples, and any other changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, and simplifications which do not depart from the spirit and principle of the present invention should be construed as equivalents and are included in the scope of the present invention.
