Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing 17alpha-hydroxyprogesterone. The17alpha-hydroxyprogesterone is prepared by taking 17beta- cyano-5-androstene-17-ol-3,3-diethylene ketal (referred as an intermediate II) as a raw material and dimethylzinc or methylzinc chloride as a reagent; the content of the 17alpha-hydroxyprogesterone by HPLC is above 99.5% and the weight yield is 83-87%. The method comprises the following steps of dissolving the intermediate II in an organic solvent, adding lithium chloride as a catalyst, stirring, raising the temperature to 40-80 DEG C, dropwise adding a toluene solution of dimethylzinc or methylzinc chloride of which the concentration is 2M, and continuing to complete the reaction; and then adding an ammonium chloride solution of which the concentration is 25% to destruct an organic zinc reagent, separating the aqueous layer out and extracting, merging the organic layer and the extract and concentrating the solvent to near dryness, and then adding lower alcohol, stirring, raising the temperature to 40-60 DEG C, adding the acid of which the concentration is 2M, hydrolyzing, adjusting the pH value with a weak base after the reaction is completed, evaporating 90% of the solvent out, adding tap water, cooling and crystallizing to obtain a crude 17alpha-hydroxyprogesterone product; and then carrying out reflux decolorizing on the crude product with activated carbon by virtue of alcohol, and refining to obtain the commercial grade 17alpha-hydroxyprogesterone. The 17alpha-hydroxyprogesterone produced by the method disclosed by the invention has the advantages of good purity and high yield and is economic and environment-friendly, and the solvent can be recycled.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the preparation technology of steroid hormone drug intermediates, in particular to a preparation method of 17a-hydroxyprogesterone. Background technique [0002] 17a-Hydroxyprogesterone is a common intermediate for the production of steroid hormone drugs. Using it as a raw material, more than ten kinds of commonly used progesterone drugs, such as medroxyprogesterone, cyproterone and megestrol, can be produced; using it as a raw material, 11β, 17a-dihydroxyprogesterone can be obtained through microbial fermentation, which can be Production of more than ten common corticosteroids such as hydrocortisone and prednisone. According to WHO statistics, in 2012, the global market demand reached 2,500-2,800 tons, with a steady growth rate of about 5% per year, and the market has broad prospects. [0003] The traditional production method of 17a-hydroxyprogesterone is to extract diosgenin from the yam plant, after protection, oxidative ...
