Problems solved by technology

[0007] The main disadvantages of this route are: (1) The safety of large-scale production is poor: when excessive carbon dioxide is introduced at extremely low temperature, the risk of blowout will be caused by the rapid gasification of carbon dioxide during post-processing, which will bring safety hazards to large-scale production ; The carbon dioxide introduced should not only be excessive, but also need to go through the water removal process, which is not easy to operate and has poor repeatability, so it is not suitable for commercial scale production
(2) The whole reaction is not easy to monitor: in the synthesis of LIFI-015 to LIFI-006, when carbon dioxide is introduced to generate acid, the reaction speed between the formed intermediate and LIFI-015 is slow, and the reaction speed of LIFI-015 and LIFI-006 in HPLC In the case of central control, it is easy to remove the Trt group and cannot be accurately quantified, and the entire reaction process cannot be monitored, making the process unstable, commercial production yield unstable, and high risk
(3) High cost and insufficient atom economy: In this process, if LIFI-015 cannot be completely converted into acid, a large amount of impurities remain in LFI-006, which is difficult for post-processing, resulting in unqualified products
Moreover, because the molecular weight of the Trt group is too large, the atom economy of the reaction is insufficient, and the production cost is high

The preparation method comprises the following steps: (1) taking a compound (1), treating the compound (1) by using tetramethyldiethylamine and n-butyl lithium, adding benzyl chloroformate, reacting at the temperature of 70 DEG C below zero to obtain a compound (2); and (2) taking the compound (2), reacting the compound (2) with a strong alkaline solution, adjusting pH to be 3-4 after the reaction is ended, and extracting to obtain a compound (3). The prepared lifitegrast intermediate is high in process selectivity, high in controllability, high in stability and high in total yield, and is suitable for commercial large-scale production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for synthesizing a rifelast intermediate, belonging to the field of chemical pharmacy. Background technique [0002] Dry eye disease refers to the general term for various diseases that cause tear quality or quantity abnormality or dynamic abnormality caused by any reason, resulting in decreased stability of tear film, accompanied by ocular discomfort and ocular surface tissue lesions. Common symptoms include dry eyes, tiredness, itching, foreign body sensation, photophobia, etc.; in more severe cases, the eyes will be red, swollen, hyperemic, keratinized, etc., which can cause keratoconjunctival lesions, affect vision, and lead to irreversible decline in vision . [0003] In July 2016, the FDA officially approved the application of the new drug lifitegrast eye drops, which acts by antagonizing the combination of ICAM-1 and LFA-1, and has obvious curative effect on dry eye disease with a low incidence of adverse rea...
