Description
PROCESS TO PURIFY TACROLIMUS
FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a process for the purification of Tacrolimus.
Background of the Invention Tacrolimus, [3S- [3R [E (1S, 3S, AS)], AS, SR, 8S, 9E, 12R, 1AR, 15S, 16R, 185, 19S, 26aR]] - 5, 6, 8, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 24, 25, 26, 26a-hexadecahydro-5,19-dihydroxy-3- [2- (4-hydroxy-3-methoxycyclohexyl) -1-methylethhenyl] -14, 16-dimethoxy-4, 10, 12, 18-tetramethyl-8- (2-propenyl) -15, 19-epoxy-3H-pyrido [2, 1-c] [1,4 ] oxaazacyclyltricosin-1, 7,20,21 (4H, 23H) -tetron, monohydrate (formerly known as FK506), has a molecular weight of 822.05, the formula C44H69 O12H2O, and the structural formula
Tacrolimus is a naturally occurring macrolide immunosuppressant produced by Streptomyces tsukubaensis. It is found on the market under the name PROGRAF® from Fujisawa, and is available for oral administration as capsules (tacrolimus capsules). Tacrolimus prolongs the survival of the host and transplanted graft in models of transplants in animals of liver, kidney, heart, spinal cord, small intestine and pancreas, lung and trachea, skin, cornea and limbs inhibiting the activation of T-lymphocyte. In animals, tacrolimus has been shown to suppress humoral immunity and, to some extent, cell-mediated reactions, such as allograft, delayed-type hypersensitivity, collagen-induced arthritis, experimental allergic encephalomyelitis, and graft versus disease. Guest.
Tacrolimus was first described in U.S. Patent No. 4,894,366 and European Patent No. EP 0 184 162. When Tacrolimus is prepared, two Tacrolumus analogues, which are impurities, are also obtained:
Ascomycin, which has the structural formula
and Dihydrotacrolimus, which has the structural formula.
The separation of tacrolimus from these impurities by conventional methods, such as crystallization, is difficult because of the structural similarity. In addition, purification is required by column chromatography. The efficiency of the purification can be improved by using silver ions in column chromatography. Silver ions interact with the double bond of the allyl side chain found in tacrolimus but which is absent in ascomycin and dihydrotacrolimus in which the side chain is an alkyl group. In ascomycin, the side chain is an ethyl group, and Dihydrotacrolimus, the side chain is a propyl group. As a result, the bond between the tacrolimus and the stationary phase or the mobile phase is fortified, and thus, the difference in tacrolimus retention time compared with the retention time of its analogs increases.
U.S. Patent No. 6,492,513 discloses separating tacrolimus from impurities using a sulfuric acid group containing a strong cation exchange resin pre-treated as silver ions, and an eluent of acetone or ethyl acetate and methanol . As tacrolimus is sensitive to the revealed exchange resin, tacrolimus contamination should be expected.
U.S. Patent Nos. 6,576,135 and 6,881,341 disclose a two-step column chromatography process for the removal of tacrolimus from impurities, particularly analogue tacrolimus-dimethyl. One disclosed step includes absorbing a mixture containing tacrolimus with a non-anionic adsorption resin, and eluting with an aqueous solvent containing silver ions. The other disclosed step includes absorbing the mixture with a basic active alumina and eluting with an organic solvent to perform the separation. The use of water in the eluent results in the formation of tacrolimus isomers, thus contaminating tacrolimus. In addition, the use of an eluent containing free silver ions requires the separation of silver ions from the eluent from the tacrolimus followed by elution from the column.
International Patent Application Publication No. WO 05/054253 discloses the chromatographic separation of tacrolimus using silica gel, optionally, either in reverse phase chromatography or pre-treated with silver, followed by treatment with ammonia gas to remove the impurities The disclosed eluent was a mixture of n-butanol, acetonitrile, and a buffer for reverse phase separation, and a mixture of ethyl acetate and hexane for removal of silver-treated silica gel.
International Patent Application Publication No. WO 05/098011 discloses a separation of tacrolimus from impurities by silica gel chromatography, where the silica gel is optionally pretreated with silver. Optionally, tacrolimus is also purified by reverse phase chromatography using previously treated silica. A C-8 column is exemplified for reverse phase chromatography. Eluent exemplified include ethyl acetate in hexane for the silver-treated column and a mixture of acetonitrile, n-butanol, and buffer for reverse phase separation.
International Patent Application Publication No. 0 05/010015 discloses the separation using a non-ionic adsorption resin without silver and with an eluent containing THF or acetonitrile, water, and, optionally, an additional organic solvent.
There is a need in the art for a method to purify tacrolimus, particularly Ascomycin and Dihydrotacrolimus, which would be suitable for use on an industrial scale. The present invention provides said method.

Detailed description of the invention
The present invention is directed to a process for the chromatographic purification of tacrolimus using a sorbent pretreated with silver ions for the stationary phase ("silver modified sorbent"), where the sorbent is one of aluminum oxide, zirconium oxide, styrene divinylbenzene copolymer, adsorption resin, cation exchange resin, anion exchange resin, reverse phase silica gel, and cyano silica gel. The process of the invention is particularly effective for the separation of tacrolimus from ascomycin and dihydrotacrolimus.
The process of the invention is suitable for industrial use. It can be carried out with an eluent that does not contain water and / or silver ions, and provides an effective separation of tacrolimus from dihydrotacrolimus and ascomycin. An eluent that does not contain water prevents tacrolimus contamination facilitating the formation of its isomers. Furthermore, by avoiding the use of silver ions in the eluent, the contamination of the final product with silver ions is substantially reduced. The use of a strong acid resin, to which tacrolimus is sensitive, and the use of two-step chromatography can also be avoided in the process of the present invention.
Tacrolimus, which is present in a mixture with impurities, is charged in the silver-modified sorbent. The loading can be carried out, for example, by dissolving the mixture in a solvent, preferably a minimum amount of the solvent, which allows the dissolution, and charging the solution in the silver-modified sorbent as a concentrated solution. A minimum amount of the solvent may be approximately twice the volume of the solvent mixture calculated to start the tacrolimus mass. The solvent in which the mixture dissolves may be the same as that used during the elution. Examples of said solvents are given below. The mixture can be charged in other ways, including as an oil or as a solid residue obtained from the evaporation of a non-concentrated solution of the mixture.
The mixture formed by tacrolimus is then eluted with a solvent or solvents from the silver-modified sorbent. Preferably the solvent is substantially anhydrous. In one embodiment, a non-aqueous eluent is used which contains either polar organic solvent from the group consisting of C3-9 linear or branched ketone, C3-7 linear or branched ester, C1-7 linear or branched alcohol, C2-B linear or branched cyclic ether, C2-s nitrile, and mixtures thereof, or a mixture of a polar organic solvent and an apolar organic solvent selected from the group consisting of C5-8 linear or branched cyclic hydrocarbon, C6-io aromatic hydrocarbon and mixtures thereof. The eluents are preferably anhydrous, ie free of water, or have a water content that is low enough to avoid the formation of tacrolimus isomers. As used herein, the term "anhydrous" refers to eluents that have no water, except, possibly, as an impurity trace that is insufficient to result in the formation of a detectable amount of tacrolimus isomers. Preferably, the eluent contains less than 2% by weight, more preferably, less than 1% by weight, even more preferably, less than 0.05% by weight of water.
Preferably, C3-9 linear or branched ketone is acetone, ethylmethyl ketone, or isobutylmethyl ketone.

When a mixture of acetone and hexane is used, at least one of the following proportions of the solvent may be used: about 1: 1, about 2: 3, about 1: 4 or about 1: 9, respectively, depending on the sorbent being used . When a mixture of ethyl acetate and acetone is used, the proportion of the solvent is preferably about 50-80% acetone by volume, more preferably about 30:70 ethyl acetate to acetone by volume. Optionally, the elution of the tacrolimus comprises a gradient elution process, starting with the elution with a mixture of solvents, preferably acetone and hexane, preferably in a ratio of approximately 3: 2, followed by an elution with approximately 100 percent of a simple solvent, preferably acetone.
Preferably, the type of elusion process is chosen according to the length of the column. Preferably, with a short column, for example a column of approximately 10 cm in length, the elution gradient is preferred, and with a longer column, for example a column of approximately 1 m in length, no elution gradient is used.
In a preferred process of the invention, a column is packaged with a silver-modified sorbent which is then washed with eluent. A solution of tacrolimus in the eluent is then loaded, followed by elution of tacrolimus, ascomycin, and dihydrotacrolimus from the column, and recovery and analysis of the obtained samples. The eluent is preferably anhydrous.
Tacrolimus of any purity can be purified by the process of the invention and can contain at least one of the following impurities: ascomycin, commonly in an amount of about 0 to about 10 percent per area by HPLC, and / or dihydrotacrolimus, commonly in an amount of about 6 percent to about 0 percent per area by HPLC. Crude tacrolimus containing approximately 7.9 percent per area by HPLC of Ascomycin and / or approximately 3.8 percent per area by HPLC of dihydrotacrolimus has been purified by the process of the invention.
The order of circumvention depends on the nature of the sorbent and the eluent. Commonly, ascomycin and dihydrotacrolimus elute before tacrolimus, since said tacrolimus has greater affinity than the silver-modified sorbent.
Preferably, the aluminum oxide used for the preparation of the silver-modified sorbent is active, aluminum oxide acid, neutral active, or basic active or aluminum oxide standardized according to Brockmann, activity II-III. More preferably, aluminum oxide 90 standardized according to Brockmann or neutral active of aluminum oxide or acidic active are used.

The cyano silica gel used for the preparation of silver-modified silica gel can be a commercial sorbent or can be prepared by treatment of silica gel with trichloro-3-cyanopropyl silane, resulting in silica gel covalently bound to its surface. a cyanoalkyl group. The most preferred sorbent for tacrolimus purification is silver modified aluminum oxide or silver modified cyano silica gel.
The sorbent adsorption resin that is preferably used has a small molecule size. The particle size can be 75 μp? at approximately 35 μta.
Preferably, for effective purification, the sorbent has a specific surface area of at least about 50 μl / more preferably about 50 about 600 m2 / g.
Preferably, the silver-modified sorbent is prepared by mixing the sorbent, a silver cation source, and a solvent selected from the group consisting of Ci_4 alcohol, water, and a mixture of water and a water-miscible solvent, and drying the resulting mixture . Preferably, when the solvent is a C1-4 alcohol, the silver cation source and Ci-4 alcohol are initially combined to obtain a solution, and the sorbent is then added to obtain a suspension. The resulting suspension is then dried, preferably, on a rotary evaporator, followed by oven drying in vacuum for about 15 minutes to about 5 hours.
The C1-4 alcohol preferably comprises a simple alcohol or a mixture of alcohols. The preferred C1-4 alcohol is methanol. Preferably, when the solvent is Ci-4 alcohol, the source of the silver ion and the C-alcohol are heated to about reflux temperature of the solvent, until a solution is obtained.
When the solvent is water or a mixture of water and a water-miscible solvent, and the sorbent is a reversed-phase silica gel, the silver ion source is preferably dissolved at room temperature, and, after dissolution, but before drying, a solution of ammonia is added. The treated solution is then dried, preferably, in an oven and, more preferably, at a temperature of about 70 ° C and at a pressure of about 30 mbar.
The inorganic silver salt or complex salt of inorganic silver can be used. The salt or complex can be contacted with the sorbent as a solution.

Preferably, the eluted fractions are recovered by collecting groups of fractions, and evaporating the solvent, thus, providing a sample. The recovered sample is then analyzed, preferably by HPLC, providing the content of tacrolimus, ascomycin, and dihydrotacrolimus in the sample. Commonly, when the elusion process progresses, the level of ascomycin and dihydrotacrolimus decreases while the level of tacrolimus increases. Preferably, the process is repeated, so that the final sample contains substantially pure tacrolimus. Preferably, the final sample contains at least about 93 percent by HPLC area of tacrolimus, more preferably, at least about 95 percent by HPLC area of tacrolimus, and, even more preferably, at least about 99 percent by area of HPLC.
Preferably, the final sample also contains less than about 0.20 percent by HPLC area of ascomycin, more preferably, less than about 0.09 percent by HPLC area, and, even more preferably, less than about 0.06. percent per HPLC area.
Preferably, the final sample also contains less than about 0.04 percent by HPLC area of dihydrotacrolimus, and, more preferably, less than about 0.03 percent by HPLC area of dihydrotacrolimus.
The column can be regenerated and used for further purification process.
The eluted tacrolimus may contain silver ions leaving the resin; the amount of said silver ions are substantially lower if an eluent containing silver ions is used. The eluted tacrolimus can be separated from the silver ions by evaporation of the eluent to obtain a residue; dissolving the residue in an organic solvent; mixing with a solution comprising a reagent that precipitates silver ions; filtering the precipitated silver salt. The reagent may be a chloride salt, such as, for example, sodium or ammonium chloride, the addition of which would result in precipitation of silver chloride. Another method for extracting silver ions is to pass the eluate through a column filled with gel modified by silica gel. Silica gel modified by sodium chloride can easily be prepared by mixing silica gel with an aqueous solution of sodium chloride.
Commonly, the organic solvent is a solvent in which the silver salts are immiscible. Preferably, the organic solvent is selected from the group consisting of: ethyl acetate, toluene, isopropyl ethyl acetate or normal, n-butyl acetate, isobutyl acetate, propionate, formate, acetone, ethyl methyl ketone, isobutyl methyl ketone, ethanol, propanol, n-butanol, iso-butanol, mixtures of ethyl acetate and acetone, mixtures of toluene and acetone, and mixtures thereof with water. Preferably, the solvent is ethyl acetate.
Preferably, the organic solvent is in an amount of about 2 volumes per gram of residue at about 30 volumes per gram of the residue, more preferably, from about 10 to about 30.
Commonly, reagents that precipitate silver ions form a silver salt that has a low solubility in water and in organic solvents. Preferably, the reagent includes a counting ion selected from the group consisting of acetate, sulfate, nitride, bromate, salicylate, iodate, chromate, carbonate, citrate, phosphate, chloride, stearate, sulfur, bromide, iodide, cyanide, benzoate, oxalate, sulfite, and thiocyanate. More preferably, the counting ion is carbonate, citrate, phosphate, chloride, stearate, sulfur, bromide, iodide, cyanide, benzoate, oxalate, sulfide, or thiocyanate. Even more preferably, the counting ion is bromide, iodide, stearate, sulfur, or cyanide. Preferably, the precipitating reagent is a salt comprising a counting ion. Even more preferably, the precipitating reagent is NH 4 Cl.
Preferably, the precipitation reagent is added in an amount of about 5 equivalent molecules per silver molecule, and more preferably, in an amount of about 1.2 to about 4 equivalent molecules per silver equivalent molecule. Preferably, the silver ion solution of reagent precipitation is an aqueous solution. Preferably, the aqueous solution is added to the solution of the residue in the organic solvent. The addition of the aqueous solution comprising a reagent to precipitate precipitation silver provides a system having at least two phases, including an organic phase, comprising the organic solvent, an aqueous phase and a silver salt precipitate. Preferably, the silver salt is silver chloride. The salt is then filtered, and the filtrate is passed through phase separation, yielding an organic phase comprising the eluted tacrolimus, substantially free of silver ions. Commonly, the term "free from" as used in reference to tacrolimus refers to tacrolimus containing less than 20 ppm silver ions. The level of the silver ions can be determined by any method known to an expert, for example, by the method described in pharmacopoeias of the United States of America.
The tacrolimus obtained directly from the column or followed by separation of silver ions can further be purified by a crystallization process, preferably comprising dissolving the final sample in a mixture of 2-propanol and n-heptane, followed by filtration. The filtrate is then preferably combined with a mixture of water and n-heptane, followed by cooling to obtain a precipitate. The precipitate is then preferably recovered by filtration and washing with water and then with n-heptane, followed by drying.
Preferably, before recovering the precipitate, the filtrate combined with the solvent mixture is maintained for about 24 hours.
The still more purified sample preferably contains tacrolimus which has a purity higher than that obtained with the chromatographic process. Commonly, after crystallization, the levels of any remaining ascomycin and dihydrotacrolimus decrease further, and tacrolimus levels decrease. Preferably, the purified sample contains at least 97 percent by HPLC area of tacrolimus, more preferably, at least about 99 percent by HPLC area or at least 99.5% and even more preferably, at least 99.9 percent per HPLC area.
Having thus described the invention with reference to particular preferred embodiments and illustrative examples, those skilled in the art will appreciate modifications to the invention as described and illustrated, which do not depart from the spirit or scope of the invention as disclosed in descriptive memory. The examples are set forth to help understand the invention but are not intended to limit and should not be considered as a limit to such scope in any way.
