This method comprises:
(1) under the pH of about 7-about 11, makes formula (I) compound 3-hydroxyl-6-methyl androstane-3,5,9 (11)-triolefins-17-ketone 3-ethyl ether in the presence of solvent or the solvent mixture (I) contact with prussic acid (H-C ≡ N), prepare 17 beta-cyanos-3,17 alpha-dihydroxy-s-6-methyl androstane-3,5,9 (11)-triolefin 3-ethyl ethers (II) and 17 alpha-cyanos-3,17 beta-dihydroxyies-6-methyl androstane-3,5,9 (11)-triolefin 3-ethyl ethers, wherein 17 beta-cyano isomer selective crystallizations.
Detailed description of the present invention
The inventive method is with 3-hydroxyl-6-methyl androstane-3 by reacting in the presence of acid and suitable solvent with prussiate, 5,9 (11)-triolefins-17-ketone 3-ethyl ether (I) is converted into 17 beta-cyanos-3,17 alpha-dihydroxy-s-6-methyl androstane-3,5,9 (11)-triolefin 3-ethyl ethers (II).
3-ethyl ether raw material 3-hydroxyl-6-methyl androstane-3,5,9 (11)-triolefins-17-ketone 3-ethyl ether (I) is by 6 Alpha-Methyl androstanes-4,9 (11)-diene-3,20 diketone (United States Patent (USP) 2,842,573, embodiment 2) by with triethyl orthoformate under nitrogen atmosphere, in the presence of pyridine hydrochloride in appropriate solvent such as ethanol the reaction and prepare.In about 40 ℃ of these reactions of heating, up to record by the TLC that uses methylene dichloride/acetone (97.5/2.5) solvent system (carrying out must ending with triethylamine before this TLC) react completely till.This reacts completely when only being left the raw material of percentum.When reacting completely, reaction mixture is cooled to 20-25 ℃, the 3-ethyl ether of expectation crystallizes out.If some 3-hydroxyl-6-methyl androstanes-3,5,9 (11)-triolefins-17-ketone 3-ethyl ether (I) is existing, then preferably adds to make kind of a crystalline substance in the refrigerative reaction mixture.3-ethyl ether (I) slowly crystallization to guarantee good filtration.If this 3-ethyl ether (I) goes out to come too fast from solution, then form very thin particle, cause filtering bad.For avoiding this point, crystallization is necessary before adding water.Preferably induce by seeding.When obtaining the thickness slurry, mixture further cools off on ice bath.Add water then and stir the mixture that to record hydrolysis to undesirable 17-diethyl ketal by TLC complete.Use the triethylamine stopped reaction mixture that is in excess in pyridine hydrochloride slightly this moment.Add extra water with this 3-ethyl ether (I) of further precipitation, mixture stirred 1 hour in 5 ℃.Obtain this 3-ethyl ether by the known filtration of those of skill in the art of present technique field, wash with cold methanol.If need, can each compound in the mother liquor be converted into Δ 4-3-ketone raw material again by using hydrochloric acid (1N).
With 3-hydroxyl-6-methyl androstane-3,5,9 (11)-triolefins-17-ketone 3-ethyl ether (I) contacts with prussic acid under about 7 to about 11 PH.But key is the pH with reaction mixture maintains about 7 to about 11 operating restraint, and preferred about 8 to about 10, more preferably from about 9.0 to about 9.5.By using the cyanide salt (10-25%) excessive slightly easily pH to be set in this scope with respect to acid.This has just produced 17 beta-cyanos-3, the 17 alpha-dihydroxy-s-6-methyl androstane-3,5 of expectation, 9 (11)-triolefin 3-ethyl ethers (H) and 17 alpha-cyano isomer, 17 alpha-cyanos-3,17 beta-dihydroxyies-6-methyl androstane-3,5,9 (11)-triolefin 3-ethyl ethers.This is reflected at solvent or solvent mixture and exists down and carry out, and wherein 17 beta-cyano isomer are insoluble than 17 alpha-cyano isomer, thereby the product of expecting carries out with reaction and is precipitated out.
Prussic acid is by mixing a kind of cyanide salt and a certain amount of pK aBe lower than approximately 7, preferably be lower than 6 acid and preparation on the spot easily.Preferred prussiate is sodium cyanide or potassium cyanide, but because preferably it is added with the aqueous solution, so the specific form of this prussiate is unimportant, as long as it is solvable.This acid is for prussiate (C ≡ N -) to be transformed into prussic acid (H-C ≡ N) be essential, prussic acid is active specy in the formation of 17-cyanalcohol.Should acid be carboxylic acid preferably.Suitable acid comprises the mineral acid example hydrochloric acid, Hydrogen bromide, hydroiodic acid HI, sulfuric acid, hydrofluoric acid, perchloric acid, nitric acid and phosphoric acid; Carboxylic acid such as acetate, formic acid, propionic acid, phenylformic acid, Mono Chloro Acetic Acid, dichloro acetic acid, trichoroacetic acid(TCA), PIVALIC ACID CRUDE (25), thylhexoic acid and other organic acids such as p-TSA, methylsulfonic acid and camphorsulfonic acid or its equivalent.Specifically be which kind of acid is unimportant, as long as it is enough acidity with prussiate (C ≡ N -) be converted into prussic acid (H-C ≡ N).In addition, prussic acid can be by unsettled cyanohydrin compound such as market on sale and acetone cyanohydrin that be usually used in this purpose obtain.
The character of solvent or solvent mixture is very crucial.For successfully carrying out this reaction, product 17 beta-cyanos-3,17 alpha-dihydroxy-s-6-methyl androstane-3,5,9 (11)-triolefin 3-ethyl ethers (II) must precipitations, and 17 alpha-cyano isomer are retained in the solution.Therefore, solvent or solvent system must make product 17 beta-cyanos-3,17 alpha-dihydroxy-s-6-methyl androstane-3,5, and 9 (11)-triolefin 3-ethyl ethers (II) are insoluble than 17 alpha-cyano isomer in reaction mixture.3-hydroxyl-6-methyl androstane-3,5,9 (11)-triolefins-17-ketone 3-ethyl ether (I) steroide raw material and cyanide salt must have some solvability at least in solvent or solvent mixture.In order to realize 17 beta-cyanos-3,17 alpha-dihydroxy-s-6-methyl androstane-3,5, the precipitation of 9 (11)-triolefins-3-ethyl ether (II) if need, can be regulated solvent so that more voluminous thing precipitation in reaction process.Preferred solvent or solvent mixture contain at least 50% alcohol.Preferred this alcohol is selected from methyl alcohol, ethanol, propyl alcohol, Virahol, butanols, the trimethyl carbinol, ethylene glycol and propylene glycol.Preferred alcohol is methyl alcohol.Suitable Non-alchoholic solvents comprises water, methylene dichloride, toluene, tetrahydrofuran (THF) or its mixture.
This reaction should be carried out to about 70 ℃ temperature (in closed system) at about 0 ℃; Preferred about 10 ℃ to about 45 ℃; More preferably from about 20 ℃ to about 40 ℃.At high temperature closed system is necessary to preventing that prussic acid from steaming.Preferably under about 30-35 ℃, reacted about 1 hour, be cooled to about 20-25 ℃ then.
When reacting completely, preferably add entry and stir the short period of time as 30 minutes.17 beta-cyanos-3, the 17 alpha-dihydroxy-s-6-methyl androstane-3,5 of expectation, 9 (11)-triolefin 3-ethyl ether (II) products slowly crystallize out.If some product (II) is existing, then preferably make the crystallization of reaction mixture seed.
React completely in case record, end to be lower than 7 to pH with acetate by TLC.This moment, reaction mixture was warmed to about 50 ℃ and add THF and dissolve until all solids.Be important to note that and emit a large amount of prussic acid this moment.After all solids dissolving, in about 3 minutes, add entry.If adding is too fast, crystal is with too little and filtration, and washing and drying are more difficult.Stir this mixture down at 50 ℃, cooling then (to-10 ℃ approximately), restir filters, and washing is also dry, with 17 beta-cyanos-3,17 alpha-dihydroxy-s-6-methyl androstane-3,5 that hydrate obtains expecting, 9 (11)-triolefin 3-ethyl ethers (II).If wish to obtain anhydrous form, should be at dry this compound more than 50 ℃.
17 beta-cyanos-3,17 alpha-dihydroxy-s-6-methyl androstane-3,5,9 (11)-triolefin 3-ethyl ethers (II) are equal to its hydrate and solvate.
17 beta-cyanos-3,17 alpha-dihydroxy-s-6-methyl androstane-3,5,9 (11)-triolefin 3-ethyl ethers (II) are useful in the production of 6-methyl steroid such as methyl prednisolone, referring to United States Patent (USP) 4,500,461,4,548,748 and 4,977,255.
