Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing hydrocortisone. The method includes: subjecting a cortisone acetate raw material to sites No. 3,20-keto protective reaction, site No.11-keto reduction reaction, site No.21-hydroxy esterification reaction, sites No. 3,20-ketone deprotection reaction, and site No. 21-acetate hydrolysis to obtain hydrocortisone. The method provides a new synthetic route containing esterification and deprotection in order, greatly improves the reaction selectivity, easily separates deprotection reaction products and avoids the posttreatment of tedious several times of extraction of a large amount of solvents in the traditional deprotection reaction process, and also avoids the side reaction caused by quenching reaction in the posttreatment of the traditional process; and the ester hydrolysis reaction is carried out under protection of inert gases in a mixed solvent, so as to avoid by-products produced in the hydrolysis reaction. The process route of the invention is novel, simple for operation, low in production cost, and applicable to industrial scale production.

Description

Technical field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of chemical pharmacy, and specifically relates to a preparation method of hydrocortisone. Background technique

[0002] The structural formula of hydrocortisone (11β, 17α, 21-trihydroxy-pregna-4ene-3,20-dione) is:

[0003] .

[0004] Hydrocortisone belongs to the adrenal cortex hormone drug, which has various pharmacological effects such as anti-inflammatory, immunosuppressive, anti-toxic and anti-shock. The 11β-hydroxyl group in the structure of steroids is a necessary group for anti-inflammatory drugs. How to introduce 11β-hydroxyl group during the preparation of hydrocortisone is a key step of the whole process. The existing processes mainly include microbial transformation and chemical methods. Two kinds. Absidia is widely used as an oxidizing strain in China, and 11β-hydroxyl is introduced into the substrate RSA through one-step microbial transformation. This process has the disadvantages of low conversion rate, many...
