Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry, and particularly to a 4- 10 The production method of B-boric acid-L-phenylalanine, in particular, relates to a 4- 10 Production method of B-boric acid-L-phenylalanine. Background Art

[0002] 10 B-4-boronic acid-L-phenylalanine ( 10 B-BPA) is the most widely used boron carrier in Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) and has the best clinical therapeutic effect. It is the only two drugs approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for BNCT treatment. It is produced by Stella, Japan. 10 B-BPA has been successfully launched in 2020 and has become an effective therapeutic entity in Japan. However, as a low-toxic but less targeted BNCT boron carrier, 10 The single treatment dosage of B-BPA is high (average 20-25 grams per person), which leads to high cost of single treatment and mainly focuses on the cost of medication. 10 The cost of B-BPA has become a key factor in further promoting BNCT therapy. 10 The high synthesis cost of B-BPA is mainly due to its high abundance. 10 The high price of B raw materials and the high abundance of available 10 The price of B-boric acid is more than 10,000 times that of naturally abundant boric acid, which leads to 10 High abundance in B-BPA synthesis process 10 B raw material cost becomes the dominant factor in process cost control. Therefore, the development of high 10 New technologies for improving B atom utilization are the most effective way to reduce the cost of BNCT treatment.

[0003] However, the main technical routes for production have been realized 10 The utilization rate of B atoms is low, which provides us with a new type of high 10 The B atom utilization route leaves enough room for innovation. The earliest production method mainly used transition metal catalyzed coupling method to introduce 10 B atoms (such as US6031127A, KR20180060319A), achieve higher reaction catalytic efficiency 10However, the special raw material requirements and high catalyst dosage of the reaction have made this type of reaction unable to adapt to industrial needs and gradually eliminated. Recently in 2023, Japan's Morita Pharmaceutical Industry Co., Ltd. announced its latest design scheme (JP2023033957A), which uses cheap and practical boron protection to increase the coupling yield to near quantitative. However, 10 The B atom utilization rate is still low, only 32.0%, and the production cost is still not effectively controlled.

[0004]

[0005] The halogen-containing precursor is reacted with an alkyl metal reagent (such as alkyl lithium, Grignard reagent, etc.) to exchange metal-halogen, and then 10 B electrophilic receptor undergoes substitution reaction, thereby introducing 10 The purpose of B atom, the above electrophilic substitution scheme has become the current mainstream 10 B-BPA production strategy. Among them, metal reagents and 10 The choice of B receptor has a crucial impact on the exchange rate, intermediate stability and electrophilic substitution efficiency. Through the combination of different reagents and condition control, some companies have achieved relatively satisfactory yield control. However, 10 The B atom utilization rate, an important cost control indicator, is still low. As early as 2013, Taiwan's Xindong Biotechnology Co., Ltd. began to use this strategy to 10 Commercial production of B-BPA (US2013331599A), they use n-butyl lithium and 10 The combination of B-tributyl borate and the 10 B atom utilization.

[0006]

[0007] Subsequently, Nanjing Zhongbo Liankang Medical Technology Co., Ltd. also began to participate 10 In the production of B-BPA (US2018155368A), they used cheaper tert-butyl magnesium chloride as a metal exchange reagent and achieved a good yield improvement. However, 10 The utilization rate of B atoms has not been effectively improved.

[0008]

[0009] As the only currently available 10B-BPA comes from Japan's Stella Company. In its published production patent, it uses a Turbo Grignard reagent as a metal exchange reagent (CN116113636A). With the addition of lithium chloride, the stability of the reaction intermediate is effectively improved, which further increases the yield of the reaction. At the same time, Stella Company clearly proposed for the first time to control the 10 However, the initial attempts did not yield good results. 10 A small improvement in B atom utilization is often accompanied by a huge sacrifice in yield.

[0010]

[0011] With this as the goal, some subsequent new process developments hope to make breakthroughs in this regard. In 2023, Chongqing Gaopeng Biotechnology Co., Ltd. adopted a multi-equivalent 10 B-tributyl borate was used to improve the electrophilic substitution efficiency (CN115925732A), which achieved a certain degree of yield improvement. However, 10 The B atom utilization did not change significantly.

[0012]

[0013] In 2022, in the patent published by Chongqing Bokedi Technology Development Co., Ltd. (CN115466279A), they tried to improve the reaction efficiency by changing the order of adding materials. 10 The reaction yield was further improved by adding the B-tributyl borate solution dropwise. 10 B atom utilization is also improved.

[0014]

[0015] In addition to the above strategies of selective metal exchange reagents, other solutions are being explored. In 2019, Japan's Otsuka Pharmaceutical used a complete protection strategy to circumvent the negative effects of carboxyl anions and amino anions in the reaction (WO2019163738A), and achieved relatively good yields and moderate 10 However, the complex protection and deprotection process still affects the overall yield and 10 The B atom utilization rate caused some of the decrease.

[0016]

[0017] In 2021, in the patent published by Sichuan Yaotian Nanotechnology Co., Ltd. (CN112574245A), they replaced the commonly used iodine raw materials with brominated precursors, although the yield and10 The utilization rate of B atoms has been improved to a certain extent, but the extremely high difficulty in synthesizing high-purity brominated raw materials also makes this strategy difficult to achieve large-scale production.

[0018]

[0019] In 2023, Hainan Puli Pharmaceutical is trying to 10 B electrophilic receptor was optimized in order to screen out a more efficient electrophilic receptor (CN116925112A). After a large number of screenings, they used a special boric acid pinacol isobutyl ester as an excellent electrophilic receptor, which was able to achieve a higher yield in the electrophilic substitution step. 10 The utilization rate of B atoms is still very low.

[0020]

[0021] In summary, after nearly 30 years of synthetic process development, from coupling strategy to electrophilic substitution strategy, 10 The production efficiency of B-BPA has been significantly improved, but the cost of BNCT treatment is still high. 10 New synthetic routes for B atom utilization have become a key technical proposition for lowering the threshold for BNCT treatment. Summary of the Invention

[0022] The key technical problem to be solved by the present invention is: in the practice of BNCT treatment, 10 B atom utilization rate leads to 4- 10 B-boronic acid-L-phenylalanine ( 10 The production cost of B-BPA is too high.
