Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing high-yield and high-purity agomelatine crystal I. The method comprises the following steps: firstly, dissolving agomelatine into a mixed solvent of dimethyl formamide (DMF) and purified water, wherein the ratio of the DMF to the purified water in dosage is (3:1)-(1:1), the ratio of the agomelatine to the mixed solvent in dosage is 1g:(3-4)mL, and the dissolution temperature is 45-60 DEG C; carrying out suction filtration; slowly adding the obtained filtrate to 20fold frozen purified water at 0-5 DEG C under the agitation at the rotation speed of 180-200r/min; slowly adding for 1.5-2.5 hours; agitating for an hour under the condition at constant temperature of 0-5 DEG C; carrying out suction filtration; rinsing a filter cake by using the purified water; putting the filter cake into a vacuum oven which contains phosphorus pentoxide under the temperature condition at 30-50 DEG C to dry for 36-72 hours, so as to obtain white solid powder. X-Ray-powder diffraction (XRPD) validates that the generated crystal I is agomelatine crystal I, the yield is 93.8-94.9%, the melting point is 98.3-99.3 DEG C, and the purity is greater than 99.5%. The method is mild in reaction condition, detailed in operating procedure, and explicit in experiment condition, the cost and the energy consumption of the reagent are reduced, the condition for achieving industrial production is controllable by controlling each critical process parameter, and large-scale industrialization is facilitated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of pharmaceutical chemical synthesis, and in particular relates to a preparation method of agomelatine crystal form I. Background technique [0002] Agomelatine (agomelatine), the chemical name is N-[2-(7-methoxy-1-naphthyl) ethyl] acetamide, and its structural formula is as follows: [0003] [0004] Agomelatine is a new type of antidepressant, which is not only a melatonin (melatonin, MT) receptor agonist, but also a 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) 2C receptor antagonist. Agomelatine can effectively treat adult depression, especially for major depressive disorder (MMD), and can effectively improve sleep parameters and maintain sexual function. The preparation method and therapeutic use of agomelatine have been reported in European patent specification EP0447285. Agomelatine crystal form I was described in detail by Tinant et al. (Actacryst, 1994, c50, 907-910). [0005] CN200910228683.5 records the prepar...
