Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing obeticholic acid from a new derivative of 3alpha-hydroxy-7-oxo-5beta-cholanic acid. The synthesis method comprises the following steps: firstly, carrying out hydroxyl and carboxyl protection on the 3alpha-hydroxy-7-oxo-5beta-cholanic acid to prepare the corresponding new derivative; secondly, obtaining the obeticholic acid respectively according to two synthesis routes. According to the method disclosed by the invention, a safer protecting group reagent is utilized, and the problem that ultraviolet absorption of an intermediate is not strong is solved; the intermediate is easier to purify, the yield is improved, and the cost is reduced, so that the method is more suitable for industrialized amplification, and has remarkable creativity and actual application value.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of medicine, and in particular relates to a preparation method of obeticholic acid. More specifically, it relates to a method for preparing obeticholic acid from a new derivative of 3α-hydroxy-7-oxo-5β-cholanic acid. Background technique [0002] Formula (I) 3α-hydroxy-7-oxo-5β-cholanic acid is an important intermediate for preparing formula (V) obeticholic acid. Obeticholic acid was successfully developed by American intercept pharmaceutical company, and it is a drug for the treatment of cholestatic liver disease. By activating the farnesoid X receptor, it indirectly inhibits the gene expression of cytochrome 7A1 (CYP7A1), thereby inhibiting bile acid synthesis. [0003] [0004] CN104926909 discloses that 3α-hydroxyl-7-oxo-5β-cholanic acid is protected by carboxymethyl ester, and the hydroxyl group is protected by 2-tetrahydropyranyl; under the action of a strong base, it is contacted with bromoethane to carry ...
