Problems solved by technology

As a result, the remaining hydroxyl groups react with the succinimidyl ester groups, which will result in the formation of poly-PEG impurities as a by-product
[0006] In addition, in high molecular compounds such as PEG, since terminal functional groups have little influence on the physical properties of the entire molecule, it is often difficult to remove terminal hydroxyl compounds from terminal carboxylic acid compounds unless yields such as column purification are performed. low purification

preparation example Construction

[0102] In the production method of the present invention, the carboxyl group-containing PEG having high carboxyl group purity can be obtained in good yield by allowing water to exist in the system during the etherification reaction, which is generally a water-deprivation reaction.

[0103] The reaction temperature in (step 1) is not particularly limited as long as it is a temperature at which polyethylene glycol having a hydroxyl group as a raw material is dissolved in an aprotic solvent. However, when the reaction temperature is low, the target etherification reaction of polyethylene glycol with the compound represented by formula (1) (hereinafter referred to as reaction A) slows down, and a systemic side reaction that occurs simultaneously with the main reaction may occur. The etherification reaction of water in and the compound represented by the formula (1) (hereinafter referred to as reaction B), makes it possible to hinder the target reaction A. On the other hand, when t...

Embodiment 1

[0128] After putting 101 g of linear PEG (product from NOF, MEH-50H) with a molecular weight of 5000, a hydroxyl group at one end and a methoxyl group at the other end, and 1800 g of toluene into a 5 L four-necked flask, the temperature was raised under a nitrogen atmosphere and the All dissolved at 45°C. The water content in the system was adjusted and confirmed to be 318 ppm (amount of water relative to KOH: 9.42 meq). After adding 200 g of KOH (product of Toa Kogyo, flakes) to the solution, 89.2 g of ethyl 6-bromohexanoate (product of Tokyo Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.) was added dropwise at a solution temperature of 40°C. After the dropwise addition was completed, the mixture was aged at 40°C for 1.5 hours. After the aging was completed, 700 g of water was added, the temperature was raised to 70° C., and the mixture was stirred for 1 hour for hydrolysis. After hydrolysis, layering was performed under the acidic condition of hydrochloric acid, and then the terminal carboxy...

[0131] After putting 41 g of linear polyethylene glycol (product from NOF, MEH-20T) with a molecular weight of 20000, a hydroxyl group at one end and a methoxyl group at the other end, and 323 g of toluene into a 1 L four-necked flask and all under a nitrogen atmosphere at After refluxing at 110±5° C. for 1 h, the water content in the system was adjusted to 298 ppm (the amount of water relative to KOH: 5.11 meq). 82 g of KOH was added to the solution after adjusting the water content, and 9.15 g of ethyl 6-bromohexanoate was added dropwise at 40° C. using a dropping funnel. After the dropwise addition was completed, the mixture was aged at 40°C for 4 hours. After the aging was completed, 287 g of water was added, the temperature was raised to 70° C., and hydrolysis was carried out for 1 hour. Thereafter, terminal carboxylic acid-containing polyethylene glycol was obtained by the same operation as in Example 1.

Abstract

The present invention provides a method for producing a terminal carboxyl group-containing polyethylene glycol, the method being characterized by having Step 1 and Step 2. Step 1: In a solution containing a polyethylene glycol having a hydroxy group, an inorganic base 0.5-4 times by mass with respect to the polyethylene glycol, a non-protonic solvent, and moisture, wherein the mass of the moisture is 5-20 meq with respect to the inorganic base, and the mass of the moisture in the solution is 2000 ppm or less, a polyethylene glycol ester is obtained by reacting a compound of formula (1) and a polyethylene glycol (X represents a leaving group, a represents an integer of 4-9, and R1 represents a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms). Step 2: The polyethylene glycol ester is hydrolyzed to obtain a terminal carboxyl group-containing polyethylene glycol.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a preparation method of polyethylene glycol containing terminal carboxyl groups and a preparation method of activated polyethylene glycol. Background technique [0002] In recent years, the development of biological drugs such as proteins and antibodies has been actively promoted. Although these biopharmaceuticals have high efficacy as drugs from the standpoint of their specificity and efficiency, they have poor pharmacokinetics, such as excretion from the kidneys, capture by the reticuloendothelial system, and breakdown in the blood, making Creates problems with short in vivo half-life. This problem not only brings difficulties to the clinical application of drugs, but also leads to a significant decline in the quality of life of patients due to the increase in the dosage and frequency of medication after the drug is marketed. [0003] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, modification of drugs with water-soluble p...
