Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for preparing high-purity (N-methyl-N-((3R,4R)-4-methylpiperidin-3-yl)-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine-4- Amine (the key intermediate of Tofacitinib), using 4-chloro-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine as the initial raw material, through benzyl protection, condensation reaction and de-dibenzyl protection reaction, and then Purified to obtain the product of the present invention. The product of the present invention (N-methyl-N-((3R,4R)-4-methylpiperidin-3-yl)-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine- The purity of the 4-amine is more than 98%, and the total yield of the synthesis method is more than 80%, which is suitable for industrial production.

Description

(1) Technical field: [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of drug synthesis and relates to a key intermediate of tofacitinib (N-methyl-N-((3R,4R)-4-methylpiperidin-3-yl)-7H-pyrrolo[ Process for the preparation of 2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-amine. (two) background technology: [0002] Tofacitinib is a new oral JAK pathway inhibitor developed by Pfizer. Unlike most other RA therapeutic drugs that mainly act on extracellular targets, tofacitinib targets intracellular signal transduction pathways and acts on the core part of the cytokine network. The inhibitory effect of tofacitinib on JAK3 is 5-100 times that of JAK1 and JAK2. Tofacitinib is the first drug developed for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. The FDA approved JAK inhibitors on November 6, 2012 for the treatment of adults with moderate to severe disease that is active and does not respond well to methotrexate. patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The product of the present invention is one of the key int...
