Description

Method for rapidly preparing racecadotril
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of chemical drug synthesis, and particularly relates to a method for rapidly preparing racecadotril.
Background
The chemical name of Racecadotril (Racecadotril) is: benzyl N- [ (R, S) -3-acetylmercapto-2-benzylpropionyl) ] glycinate, developed by the company Bioprojet, france and marketed in 1993, is known under the name of Tiorfan as a therapeutic agent for acute diarrhea in adults and children. The racecadotril is an enkephalinase inhibitor, and can selectively and reversibly inhibit enkephalinase, so that endogenous enkephalin is protected from being degraded, and the physiological activity of the endogenous enkephalin in a digestive tract is prolonged. In peripheral tissues, racecadotril can be rapidly hydrolyzed to the more effective enkephalin inhibitor, acetolene, and inhibit the activity of enkephalin, but does not affect the activity of enkephalin in the central nervous system; can also increase the utilization of opioid and activate opioid receptors of intestinal tract, and does not affect gastrointestinal peristalsis and intestinal tract basal secretion; eventually, the mucosal level of cAMP (cyclic adenosine monophosphate) is reduced, and excessive secretion of water and electrolytes is inhibited. The racecadotril has quick response when being used for treating acute diarrhea, can be taken together with food, water or breast milk, and has the advantages of safe and convenient administration and less adverse reaction.
U.S. patent application No. 5945548A discloses the use of benzylacrylic acid and thioacetic acid in the absence of solvent at 70 deg.C for 24h, followed by distillation under reduced pressure to remove excess thioacetic acid, absorption of the residue with diethyl ether three times, distillation of diethyl ether at atmospheric pressure each time to remove residual thioacetic acid and obtain the intermediate 2-acetylthiomethyl-3-phenylpropionic acid; reacting the intermediate with benzyl glycinate at 0 deg.C in the presence of HOBT and DCC, wherein CaCl is used in the reaction process 2 And (3) removing water, wherein solvents are anhydrous tetrahydrofuran and chloroform, filtering DCU precipitate after the reaction is finished, evaporating filtrate to dryness to obtain crude racecadotril, and recrystallizing the crude racecadotril with diethyl ether after the crude racecadotril is dissolved in ethyl acetate, washed with water, washed with a salt solution, and dried to obtain a refined racecadotril product. The molar yield of the product was 61.4% based on benzylacrylic acid. The low boiling point solvent ether used in the process for synthesizing the intermediate is very easy to volatilize, and the consumption is very large; the synthesis reaction time is longer, and the consumption of the raw material thioacetic acid is larger; the refining steps of crude racecadotril are complex and no purity data are provided.

Detailed Description
The technical solution of the present invention is described in detail and fully with reference to the following examples, it is obvious that the described examples are only a part of the examples of the present invention, and not all of the examples. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments of the present invention without any inventive step, are within the scope of the present invention. Any equivalent alterations or substitutions made by those skilled in the art according to the following embodiments are all within the protection scope of the present invention.
Examples
The embodiment provides a preparation method of racecadotril, which specifically comprises the following steps:
s1, synthesis of 3- (acetylthio) -2-benzylpropionic acid
S1-1, adding 0.1mol of 2-benzyl acrylic acid into a reaction bottle, adding 0.1mol of thioacetic acid into the reaction bottle, heating the mixture to 90 ℃ for reaction for 20 hours, and detecting the reaction process by using Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) until the reaction is finished;
s1-2, adding 200mL of ethyl acetate into the reaction solution, uniformly stirring, washing with 200mL of water, repeating the washing for 3 times, and dissolving the product in the ethyl acetate; separating out an organic phase after each washing, and combining the organic phases;
s1-3, adding 400mL of 2wt% sodium hydroxide solution (pH = 9.0) into the organic phase obtained in the step S1-2, extracting and separating the liquid, extracting the organic phase twice with water, wherein the amount of the water is 100mL each time, and combining the water phases extracted each time (the product is in the water phase);
s1-4, adding 300mL of 1mol/L hydrochloric acid solution (pH = 5.0) into the water phase obtained in the step S1-3, extracting twice with ethyl acetate, wherein the using amount of the ethyl acetate is 500 mL/time, and combining organic phases separated after each extraction (the product is dissolved in the ethyl acetate);
s1-5, adding anhydrous sodium sulfate into the organic phase obtained in the step S1-4, drying, and evaporating the solvent to obtain 18.96g of viscous yellow oily matter, namely the intermediate 3- (acetylthio) -2-benzyl propionic acid, wherein the purity is 98.5%.
A plurality of parallel experiments are carried out simultaneously according to the method of the step S1, the yield of the obtained 3- (acetylthio) -2-benzyl propionic acid is 74-86%, and the purity is more than 98%.
The reaction equation in step S1 is:
Figure BDA0003844024600000051
in order to solve the problems, in the method of the step S1, a cosolvent is added in the synthesis process of the step S1, and the cosolvent and the reaction conditions are screened, because thioacetic acid with high viscosity is used in the synthesis process, and the reaction temperature is high, the preparation time is long, the reaction of the raw material is incomplete (the thioacetic acid is continuously distilled out as the raw material, which is not beneficial to the full reaction), the yield and the purity of the intermediate are not high enough.
(1) Co-solvent screening
Four cosolvents were selected in this example: DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide), DMF (N, N-dimethylformamide), THF (tetrahydrofuran), EA (ethyl acetate), comparative experiments were performed; synthesizing 3- (acetylthio) -2-benzylpropionic acid according to the method in the step S1, wherein the difference is that a cosolvent is added into a reaction bottle in the step S1-1, and the reaction temperature is set to be 70 +/-2 ℃; the screening results are shown in Table 1.
TABLE 1 screening of co-solvents in the synthesis of 3- (acetylthio) -2-benzylpropionic acid
Figure BDA0003844024600000061
In the synthesis process, when DMSO is used as a cosolvent, raw materials do not react, but yellow solid precipitates are generated. And determining the yellow precipitate as sulfur simple substance by detecting that the melting point of the yellow precipitate is 116-119 ℃. Through analysis, the thioacetic acid raw material and DMSO undergo a redox reaction to generate elemental sulfur. DMSO is not suitable as a co-solvent for the synthesis reaction in step S1. When DMF is taken as a cosolvent, the reaction process can be normally carried out, but the reaction system has more residual raw materials and incomplete reaction, and in the post-treatment process, the DMF is not suitable to be used as a solvent for the reaction because the product in the system cannot be extracted due to the unique solubility of the DMF. Ethyl acetate and THF are used as co-solvents, the yield of the obtained intermediate is high, and considering the characteristic that THF is easy to become peroxide during storage and has high storage requirement, the optimal co-solvent is selected to be ethyl acetate.
(2) Screening of reaction conditions
9 sets of experimental conditions are designed through orthogonal software, and an orthogonal experiment is carried out according to the method of the step S1 to synthesize the intermediate 3- (acetylthio) -2-benzyl propionic acid. Except that 5mL of cosolvent is added into the reaction bottle in the step S1-1, the dosage of thioacetic acid is respectively 0.1mol times (1.1 times, 1.2 times and 1.3 times), the reaction temperature is respectively 50 ℃, 60 ℃ and 70 ℃, and the reaction time is 5 hours. The reaction conditions and results of the orthogonal experiments are shown in Table 2.

Figure BDA0003844024600000071
From the experimental results in table 2, it can be seen that, in the solvent-free reaction system, or the reaction system using ethyl acetate as a cosolvent, or the reaction system using THF as a cosolvent, when the reaction temperature is 50-70 ℃ and the molar ratio of thioacetic acid to 2-benzylacrylic acid is (1.1-1.3): 1, the yield of the intermediate 3- (acetylthio) -2-benzylpropionic acid can reach more than 77%, and the purity of the intermediate can reach more than 95%; especially, when the cosolvent is ethyl acetate, the reaction temperature is 50-70 ℃, the molar ratio of the thioacetic acid to the 2-benzyl acrylic acid is (1.1-1.3): 1, the product yield reaches more than 86 percent, and the purity can reach more than 96 percent; the method has the advantages that when the cosolvent is not used, the reaction temperature is 60 ℃, and the molar ratio of thioacetic acid to 2-benzyl acrylic acid is 1.3. The reaction time is greatly shortened no matter the intermediate is synthesized with or without a solvent, and the period of industrial production can be obviously shortened.
The preferred parameters in table 2 were verified by scale-up experiments, which are consistent with the experiments in table 2, with a molar ratio of thioacetic acid to 2-benzylacrylic acid of 1.2, 5-fold and 10-fold respectively, and the results are shown in table 3.

and S2-3, dropwise adding the mixed solution after the reaction into 5L of ice water to generate white turbidity, naturally precipitating at room temperature for 15h, filtering out the white turbidity solution, adding ethyl acetate to dissolve the white turbidity solution, adding anhydrous sodium sulfate to dry, filtering, and performing rotary evaporation until no solvent is distilled off to obtain 165g of crude racecadotril with the molar yield of 85.6%.
The reaction equation in step S2 is:

The screening results of the solvent types are shown in Table 4, wherein 10 times of parallel experiments are carried out in total in Table 4, and the mass of the crude racecadotril weighed in each experiment is 1.93g.
TABLE 4 screening results of racecadotril refined solvent species
Serial number A first solvent Dosage (mL) A second solvent Dosage (mL) Yield (g) Yield of
1 Methylene dichloride 30 Water (I) 100 0 0
2 Methylene dichloride 30 Petroleum ether 100 0 0

7 Ethanol 30 Water (W) 100 0.8153 42.3%
8 Ethanol 30 Petroleum ether 100 0.9984 51.8%
9 N-hexanol 30 Water (I) 100 1.5131 78.5%
10 N-hexanol 30 Petroleum ether 100 1.6480 85.5%
According to the experimental process and the results in table 4, whether the second solvent is water or petroleum ether, the crude racecadotril can be mixed and dissolved with dichloromethane, toluene and ethyl acetate as the first solvent, but can not be used for recrystallization; the first solvent can be used for recrystallization when ethanol is used, but the yield is low; in the experiment, the combination of n-hexanol and water and the combination of n-hexanol and petroleum ether have higher recrystallization yield; therefore, the first solvent is preferably ethanol or/and n-hexanol in the refining process of the crude racecadotril, and the second solvent is preferably water or/and petroleum ether; most preferably, the first solvent is n-hexanol and the second solvent is petroleum ether.
B. Solvent dosage optimization
And (4) according to the screened solvent types, continuously optimizing the dosage of the solvent according to the method in the step (S3), wherein the first solvent is n-hexanol, the second solvent is petroleum ether, and the optimization result is shown in a table 5. A total of 8 replicates were performed in Table 5, each weighing 15g of crude racecadotril.
TABLE 5 optimized results of the amount of racecadotril refined solvent
Serial number n-hexanol/mL Petroleum Ether/mL Refined racecadotril product/g Yield of Purity of
1 10 100 13.62 90.8% 98.1%
2 20 100 12.91 86.1% 98.4%
3 30 100 12.78 85.2% 99.1%

When the volume ratio of the first solvent to the second solvent in the crystallization system exceeds 0.4, the racecadotril crystallization speed becomes slow, and the yield is also obviously reduced. When the volume ratio of the first solvent to the second solvent is less than 0.233, the solution is turbid during crystallization, the crystallization is too fast, the product is viscous and is not easy to filter, although the yield and the purity are high. When the volume ratio of the first solvent to the second solvent is 0.233-0.4, the crystal particles of the product in the crystallization process are obvious, and the yield and the purity of the refined racecadotril product are high; particularly, when the volume ratio of the first solvent to the second solvent is 0.4 (the 4 th experiment in table 5), the yield and purity of the refined racecadotril product are the highest, and the spectrum for detecting the purity is shown in fig. 5.
