Description

Foreliggende oppfinnelse vedrører en fremgangsmåte ved fremstilling av 17-estere av clobetasol. En videre gjen-stand er clobetasol 17-estere erholdt ifølge fremgangsmåten i foreliggende oppfinnelse. Det er kjent fra US-patent nr. 3.721.687 at clobetasol 17-estere kan fremstilles fra 17-estere av betametason via dé tilsvarende 21-alkylsulfonater. Imidlertid forløper reaksjonen langsomt og krever reaksjonstider på 1-3 dager, og utbyttet av oppnådd produkt er dårlig og urent, hvilket nødvendiggjør kromatografi og gjentatt krystallisering for å oppnå den rene form. The present invention relates to a method for the production of 17-esters of clobetasol. A further object is clobetasol 17-esters obtained according to the method of the present invention. It is known from US patent no. 3,721,687 that clobetasol 17-esters can be prepared from 17-esters of betamethasone via the corresponding 21-alkyl sulphonates. However, the reaction proceeds slowly and requires reaction times of 1-3 days, and the yield of product obtained is poor and impure, necessitating chromatography and repeated crystallization to obtain the pure form.

Det er et formål for foreliggende oppfinnelse å tilveie-bringe en enkel og effektiv fremgangsmåte for fremstilling av dlobetasol 17-estere, som ikke medfører lange reaksjonstider og som tilveiebringer produktet i en lett renset form og som er egnet for industriell fremstilling i stor skala. It is an aim of the present invention to provide a simple and effective method for the production of dlobetasol 17-esters, which does not involve long reaction times and which provides the product in an easily purified form and which is suitable for industrial production on a large scale.

Disse formål er oppnådd ved en fremgangsmåte hvor lett til-gjengelige estere av 9beta,llbeta-epoksy-17,21-dihydroksy-16beta-metylpregna-l,4-dien-3,20-dion med formelen I These objects have been achieved by a process where readily available esters of 9beta,11beta-epoxy-17,21-dihydroxy-16beta-methylpregna-1,4-diene-3,20-dione with the formula I

Det vellykkede resultat av reaksjonssekvensen i foreliggende The successful result of the reaction sequence in the present

oppfinnelse er overraskende da den nukleofile substitusjon av en 21-mesyloksygruppe med klor i et substrat inneholdende en 9beta,llbetaepoksygruppe uten at 9beta,llbetaepoksy-gruppen brytes, ikke kunne forutsees av en fagmann. Åpningen av 9beta,llbeta-steroidepoksyder til de tilsvarende klorhydriner ved omsetning med litiumklorid i eddiksyre er kjent fra US-patent nr. 3.652.604. Under oppfinnelsens reaksjonsbetingelser dannes imidlertid ingen påviselige mengder klorhydriner. Faktisk er utbyttene av 21-klor 9beta,llbeta-epoksyforbindelser nesten kvantitative, hvilket er bemerkelsesverdig i betraktning av de lave utbytter som oppnås ved å bruke 9alfa-fluor-llbeta-hydroksyforbindelser i US-patent nr. 3.721.687. invention is surprising as the nucleophilic substitution of a 21-mesyloxy group with chlorine in a substrate containing a 9beta,11betaepoxy group without breaking the 9beta,11betaepoxy group could not be foreseen by a person skilled in the art. The opening of 9beta,11beta steroid epoxides to the corresponding chlorohydrins by reaction with lithium chloride in acetic acid is known from US Patent No. 3,652,604. Under the reaction conditions of the invention, however, no detectable amounts of chlorohydrins are formed. In fact, the yields of 21-chloro 9beta,11beta-epoxy compounds are almost quantitative, which is remarkable in view of the low yields obtained using 9alpha-fluoro-11beta-hydroxy compounds in US Patent No. 3,721,687.

Et ytterligere overraskende trekk ved den nucleofile substitusjon på 9beta,llbeta-epoksyder er hvor lett reaksjonen forløper. I US-patent nr. 3.721.687 utføres en lignende substitusjon på 9alfa-fluor-llbeta-hydroksyforbindelser under betingelser som krever 3 dager ved tilbakeløp og benytter et 2000 % overskudd av litiumklorid. A further surprising feature of the nucleophilic substitution of 9beta,11beta-epoxides is the ease with which the reaction proceeds. In US Patent No. 3,721,687, a similar substitution of 9alpha-fluoro-11beta-hydroxy compounds is carried out under conditions requiring 3 days at reflux and using a 2000% excess of lithium chloride.

Under betingelsene i foreliggende oppfinnelse forløper reaksjonen fullstendig på 1-3 timer ved temperaturer fra Under the conditions of the present invention, the reaction proceeds completely in 1-3 hours at temperatures from

60 til 90°C med bare et lite overskudd litiumklorid.60 to 90°C with only a small excess of lithium chloride.

! En tydelig fordel ved foreliggende oppfinnelse er.at mellom- ! A clear advantage of the present invention is that between

produktene oppnås i en tilstrekkelig ren form ved enkel vandig utfelling (eller total ekstraksjon), slik at rensning av mellomproduktet blir unødvendig. Videre oppnås sluttproduktene i så ren form at de kan bringes til farma-copoeia standard ved enkel krystallisering. Ved å bruke fremgangsmåten fra US-patent nr. 3.721.687 krever mellomproduktet rensning, og sluttproduktet må kromatograferes og krystalliseres flere ganger. Således er fremgangsmåten ifølge foreliggende oppfinnelse mer egnet for industriell fremstilling i stor skala. the products are obtained in a sufficiently pure form by simple aqueous precipitation (or total extraction), so that purification of the intermediate product becomes unnecessary. Furthermore, the end products are obtained in such a pure form that they can be brought to pharmacopoeia standard by simple crystallization. Using the method from US Patent No. 3,721,687, the intermediate product requires purification, and the final product must be chromatographed and crystallized several times. Thus, the method according to the present invention is more suitable for industrial production on a large scale.

Det første trinn i foreliggende oppfinnelse består i dannelse av et 21-mesylatderivat fra den tilsvarende 21-hydroksyforbindelse ved bruk av metansulfonylklorid i pyridin, en kjent reaksjon. Utbyttene i dette trinn er nesten kvantitative. The first step in the present invention consists in the formation of a 21-mesylate derivative from the corresponding 21-hydroxy compound using methanesulfonyl chloride in pyridine, a known reaction. The yields in this step are almost quantitative.

Det andre trinnet av oppfinnelsen består i å substituere 21-mesyloksygruppen med klor. Denne fremgangsmåte utføres The second step of the invention consists in substituting the 21-mesyloxy group with chlorine. This procedure is carried out

i et egnet dipolart apriotisk løsningsmiddel såsom aceton, dimetylformamid, heksametylfosforsyretriamid eller blandinger derav. Søkeren foretrekker å bruke dimetylformamid, da substratene har god løselighet i dette løsningsmiddel, og således muliggjør å utføre reaksjonen i høye konsentrasjoner (16-20 % vekt/volum), en viktig faktor ved industriell fremstilling. in a suitable dipolar apriotic solvent such as acetone, dimethylformamide, hexamethylphosphoric acid triamide or mixtures thereof. The applicant prefers to use dimethylformamide, as the substrates have good solubility in this solvent, thus enabling the reaction to be carried out in high concentrations (16-20% weight/volume), an important factor in industrial production.

I motsetning til dette utføres fremgangsmåten i US-patent nr. 3.721.687 ved én konsentrasjon på mindre enn 1,5 % vekt/volum. In contrast, the method in US Patent No. 3,721,687 is carried out at a concentration of less than 1.5% w/v.

Den foretrukne kloridionkilde er vannfritt litiumklorid, selv om alle forbindelser som er i stand til å avgi kloridioner kan brukes. En fordel ved fremgangsmåten ifølge oppfinnelsen er at bare et lite overskudd av litiumklorid anvendes. Reaksjonen kan utføres ved temperaturer mellom 30° og 120°C, fortrinnsvis. The preferred chloride ion source is anhydrous lithium chloride, although any compound capable of emitting chloride ions may be used. An advantage of the method according to the invention is that only a small excess of lithium chloride is used. The reaction can be carried out at temperatures between 30° and 120°C, preferably.

i i Utbyttene som oppnås i dette trinn er overraskende høye i i The yields obtained in this step are surprisingly high

(92-96 % av teoretisk). (92-96% of theoretical).

Sluttrinnet i oppfinnelsen består i overføring av 9beta, llbeta-epoksygruppen i det tilsvarende fluorhydrin ved bruk av hydrogenfluorid, en kjent reaksjon. Fluorering kan ut-føres ved vanlige metoder, f.eks. vandig hydrogenfluorid eller blandinger av vandig hydrogenfluorid med tetrahydrofuran, dimetylformamid, urea eller pyridin. Søkeren finner 70 % vandig hydrogenfluorid hensiktsmessig, hvilket gir høye utbytter. The final step in the invention consists in the transfer of the 9beta, 11beta-epoxy group in the corresponding fluorohydrin using hydrogen fluoride, a known reaction. Fluorination can be carried out by usual methods, e.g. aqueous hydrogen fluoride or mixtures of aqueous hydrogen fluoride with tetrahydrofuran, dimethylformamide, urea or pyridine. The applicant finds 70% aqueous hydrogen fluoride appropriate, which gives high yields.

Utgangsmaterialene for foreliggende oppfinnelse, nemlig 9beta,llbeta-epoksy-17,2l-dihydroksy-16beta-metylpregna-1,4-dien-3,20-dion 17-estere er enten kjente eller kan lett fremstilles fra betametasonmellomproduktet 9beta,llbeta-epoksy-17 ,21-dihydroksy-16beta-metylpregna-l,4-dien-3,2 0-dion som er å få i handelen, ved bruk av fremgangsmåten fra US-patent nr. 3.755.302. The starting materials for the present invention, namely 9beta,llbeta-epoxy-17,2l-dihydroxy-16beta-methylpregna-1,4-diene-3,20-dione 17-esters are either known or can be easily prepared from the betamethasone intermediate 9beta,llbeta-epoxy -17,21-dihydroxy-16beta-methylpregna-1,4-diene-3,20-dione which is commercially available, using the method of US Patent No. 3,755,302.
