Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method for obeticholic acid, belonging to the technical fields of synthetic chemistry application and biological medicines. The preparation method comprises the following steps: with 6-methylene-7-ketolithocholic acid as a reactant, dissolving the 6-methylene-7-ketolithocholicacid and nitromethane into a polar aprotic solvent together, and carrying out treating with inorganic base so as to obtain 6-alpha-(2-nitroethyl)-7-ketolithocholicacid; and performing two-step reduction treatment on the 6-alpha-(2-nitroethyl)-7-ketolithocholicacid to remove nitryl soas to finally obtain a target product, namely the obeticholic acid. The method provided by the invention is simple in synthetic route, simple and convenient to operate, simple and easily available inraw materials, low in cost, less in side reaction, high in product purity, good in yield, convenient to purify and applicable to large-scale production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of synthetic chemistry application and biomedicine, and specifically relates to a preparation method of obeticholic acid. Background technique [0002] Obeticholic acid (6-α-ethyl-chenodeoxycholic acid) is a promising bile acid drug that can promote bile acid synthesis for the treatment of primary biliary cirrhosis and non-alcoholic Fatty liver disease, but it has not yet been put into large-scale production and application. [0003] The common synthesis method of obeticholic acid is to use 7-ketocholelithic acid as the key raw material, first protect the carboxyl group and hydroxyl group on the raw material molecule and then enolize it to obtain enol silyl ether, and then react with acetaldehyde under the promotion of Lewis acid condensation reaction. This method is feasible and the purity of the product is high, but it requires complex and harsh chemical reaction conditions, the reaction result is extrem...
