Problems solved by technology

[0006] In addition, in the manufacture of ADC, since the amount of bound drug is usually determined using mass spectrometry or HPLC (high performance liquid chromatography), when there are different When a monodisperse PEG with a chain length of ethylene glycol is used as an impurity, there is a problem in production that the confirmation becomes difficult.
In addition, as a result of the presence of impurities having different ethylene glycol chain lengths, since the equivalents of antibodies and drugs to be added at the time of ADC production are unclear, problems arise in that expensive antibodies and drugs must be used in excess and Compounds with various molecular weights are formed at the time of drug application, and thus make identification of compounds and conduct of various tests necessary
Since these impurities have physical properties similar to those of the target, it is difficult to remove them, and the purification method is limited to purification methods such as column chromatography, which is not suitable for scale-up
In addition, Patent Document 1 does not describe a purification method for removing these bis-tritylated impurities from Compound 8

Embodiment 1

[0129] The synthesis of embodiment 1 compound 2

[0130]

[0131] Tetraethylene glycol 1 (2,000 mL, 11.5 mol) was put into a four-neck flask, and azeotropic dehydration was performed twice using toluene (500 mL×2 times). The inside of the eggplant-shaped flask was purged with nitrogen, pyridine (180 mL, 2.2 mol) and trityl chloride (TrtCl, 400 g, 1.4 mol) were added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 hours. After 3 hours, disappearance of TrtCl was confirmed by using thin layer chromatography (TLC, hexane:ethyl acetate=1:1 (volume ratio)), and 2,000 mL of ion-exchanged water was added. After adding toluene (1,000 mL) to the resulting mixture, the layers were separated, and the organic layer was washed once with a mixed solution of 1,000 mL of ion-exchanged water / saturated brine (ion-exchanged water:saturated brine=4:1 (volume ratio)), Wash once with 500 mL of 1M aqueous hydrochloric acid solution, and wash four times with 500 mL of saturated saline. So...

Embodiment 2

[0149] The synthesis of embodiment 2 compound 4

[0150]

[0151] The reaction product containing the above compound 2 (compound 2: 628 g, less than 0.14 mol) and 2,000 mL of tetrahydrofuran (THF) were placed in an eggplant-shaped flask, and the whole was cooled to 0°C. Aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (200 g, 5.0 mol / 600 mL) was added, followed by stirring at 0° C. for 20 minutes. To the reaction mixture was added dropwise a toluenesulfonyl chloride (TsCl) / THF solution (300 g, 1.6 mol / 600 mL) during 30 minutes, and the mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 4 hours. After 4 hours, disappearance of Compound 2 was confirmed by using TLC (hexane:ethyl acetate=1:1 (volume ratio)), and then, the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 15 hours to disappear unreacted TsCl. After 15 hours, the disappearance of TsCl was confirmed by TLC, and 300 mL of ion-exchanged water and 500 mL of diethyl ether were added. The mixed solution was washed once with 500 mL of saturated aqueous so...

[0153] Synthesis of monodisperse PEG (compound 5) comprising a terminal trityl group with a chain length of 8 in embodiment 3

[0154]

[0155] Sodium hydride (81 g) was charged into a two-necked eggplant-shaped flask, and the inside was replaced with nitrogen. Washed twice with anhydrous hexane (500 mL x 2 times), added 1,800 mL of THF, and cooled the whole to 0°C. Tetraethylene glycol 1 (2,000 mL, 11.5 mol) azeotropically dehydrated three times with 500 mL of toluene was placed in a dropping funnel and added thereto dropwise during 30 minutes. After the dropwise addition was completed, the reaction product containing Compound 4 obtained in Example 2 (Compound 4: 813 g, less than 1.4 mol) obtained in Example 2 that had been azeotropically dehydrated three times with 500 mL of toluene was mixed with 1,000 mL of THF, and the resultant was placed in the same in a dropping funnel and added dropwise over a 15 minute period. After the dropwise addition was complete, the reacti...

Abstract

Provided is a method for purifying a trityl group-containing monodispersed polyethylene glycol from a mixture containing a specific trityl group-containing monodispersed polyethylene glycol and specific ditrityl impurities, the method comprising steps (A), (B), and (C). Step (A): a step for esterifying hydroxyl groups of a trityl group-containing monodispersed polyethylene glycol in a specific manner; Step (B): a step for extruding the esterified compound in a specific manner; Step (C): a step for hydrolyzing the esterified compound to obtain a trityl group-containing monodispersed polyethylene glycol.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a purification method for the efficient and high-purity manufacture of monodisperse polyethylene glycol (PEG) for medical use. More specifically, the present invention relates to methods for removing bis-tritylated impurities generated during PEG chain length extension reactions characteristic of monodisperse PEG synthesis. Background technique [0002] PEG, which improves drug circulation in the blood by modifying the drug, has been widely used in the field of drug delivery system (DDS) and medicine. In recent years, such PEG has been required to have higher purity from the viewpoint of function and safety at the time of drug modification. [0003] On the one hand, PEG synthesized by ring-opening polymerization of ethylene oxide is a heterogeneous mixture of various molecular weights. On the other hand, monodisperse PEG synthesized sequentially from raw materials such as low molecular weight ethylene glycol is a sing...
