Preparation method of novel coronavirus main protease inhibitor
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis route design and preparation of raw material medicines and intermediates thereof, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a novel coronavirus main protease inhibitor S-217622.
Background
S-217622 is an oral medicine for treating new corona developed by Nippon salt Yeyi company, and has high-efficiency inhibiting effect on the main protease 3CLpro of new corona virus and antiviral effect. Preclinical tests show that S-217622 has strong in-vitro effect on 3CLpro activity and IC 50 The value was 0.013. mu.M, EC 50 The value was 0.37. mu.M. Animal experiments have shown that S-217622 is highly effective when administered orally in rats, monkeys, and dogsAbsorption and low clearance, with half-lives in monkeys and dogs of about 10 and 30 hours, respectively. Meanwhile, in vitro experiments also prove that S-217622 has stronger antiviral activity on various new coronavirus variant strains and EC of the Ormcken variant strain 50 The value was about 0.29. mu.M, and no significant decrease occurred. At present, the medicine has completed phase IIb clinical tests, and salt Yeyi company has applied for production and marketing approval from Japan Housheng labour province based on the clinical test results.
The chemical name of S-217622(I) is: (6E) -6- [ (6-chloro-2-methyl-2H-indazol-5-yl) imino ] dihydro-3- [ (1-methyl-1H-1, 2, 4-triazol-3-yl) methyl ] -1- [ (2,4, 5-trifluorophenyl) methyl ] -1,3, 5-triazine-2, 4(1H,3H) -dione having the following structural formula:
analysis of the molecular structure composition of S-217622 shows that the compound is composed of a triazine parent nucleus and three side chains of indazolyl, triazolyl and trifluorobenzyl.
Based on the above analysis, the research literature of salt-wild-type corporation "Discovery of S-217622, a Non-equivalent Oral SARS-CoV-23 CL Protease Inhibitor Clinical diagnosis for Treating COVID-19" (bioRxiv, post January 26,2022) discloses a synthetic route of S-217622 by using the idea of "reverse synthesis method":
firstly, a triazine parent nucleus 3- (1, 1-dimethylethyl) -6- (ethylmercapto) -1,3, 5-triazine-2, 4(1H,3H) -diketone and a fluorobenzyl side chain 2,4, 5-trifluorobenzyl bromide are substituted in the presence of an acid binding agent to obtain an intermediate 1; secondly, carrying out deprotection on the intermediate 1 under a strong acid condition to obtain an intermediate 2; then the intermediate 2 and triazolyl side chain 3- (chloromethyl) -1-methyl-1H-1, 2, 4-triazole carry out substitution reaction again in the presence of an acid-binding agent to obtain an intermediate 3; finally, the intermediate 3 and 6-chloro-2-methyl-2H-indazol-5-amine of the indazolyl side chain are subjected to condensation reaction under a strong alkaline condition to prepare the target product S-217622 (I).
Considering the above synthetic route, in order to selectively perform the substitution reaction between the halogenated side chain and the parent nucleus twice, protection and deprotection steps are inevitably required, so that the whole reaction yield is reduced, and the principle of atom economy cannot be satisfied to the maximum extent. Meanwhile, because the reaction route repeatedly uses the substitution reaction with the same mechanism twice, the situations of selectivity reduction and side reactions increase are bound to occur.
Therefore, in order to realize the preparation of the Xinguan drug S-217622 more efficiently, a modern synthesis technology is adopted, a more economical and practical reaction route is searched, an economic, environment-friendly, green and alternative process route is formed, and the method is very important for enriching the preparation technology of S-217622 and the economic and technical development of the bulk drug.
