Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of chemical drug analysis, and in particular to an analytical method for analyzing and determining rupatadine fumarate intermediates and related impurities thereof by liquid chromatography. Background Art

[0002] The intermediate of rupatadine fumarate is called loratadine, with the chemical formula of ethyl 4-(8-chloro-5,6-dihydro-11H-benzo[5,6]cyclohepta[1,2-b]pyridin-11-ylidene)-1-piperidinecarboxylate. Its English name is Ethyl 4-(8-chloro-5,6-dihydro-11H-benzo[5,6]cyclohepta[1,2-b]pyridin-11-ylidene)piperidine-1-carboxylate, its molecular formula is C22H23ClN2O2, and its molecular weight is 382.883.

[0003]

[0004] Loratadine is a second-generation antihistamine. It is a highly effective and long-lasting tricyclic antihistamine. It is a selective peripheral H1 receptor antagonist that can relieve various symptoms caused by allergic reactions.

[0005] During the synthesis of rupatadine fumarate, introduced intermediates may affect the drug's purity and quality due to incomplete removal. Testing for these substances can help control drug quality and safety. Therefore, separating loratadine from other related impurities is of great practical significance for quality control during the synthesis of rupatadine fumarate. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The present invention provides a method for analyzing related substances of rupatadine fumarate intermediates, which adopts high performance liquid chromatography, uses a silica gel-bonded octadecylsilane column as a chromatographic column, uses a certain proportion of an inorganic salt buffer solution as mobile phase A and an organic phase as mobile phase B, and performs isocratic elution.

[0008] The present invention provides a method for analyzing related substances of rupatadine fumarate intermediates, wherein the gradient elution procedure is:

[0009] Preferably, the inorganic salt buffer solution is phosphate, specifically potassium dihydrogen phosphate, with a concentration of 0.025 mol / L.

[0010] Preferably, the organic phase is acetonitrile.

[0011] Preferably, the chromatographic column provided is Shim-pack GIS C18 (4.6 mm×250 mm, 5 μm).

[0012] The separation and determination method of the present invention can be achieved by the following method: 1) Take an appropriate amount of loratadine reference substance and dissolve the sample in a diluent to prepare a sample solution containing 0.2 mg of loratadine per 1 ml; 2) Set the mobile phase flow rate to 0.5-1.5 mL / min, preferably 1.0 mL / min, the detection wavelength to 220-240 nm, with the optimal detection wavelength being 210 nm, and the column oven temperature to 20-40°C, with the optimal column oven temperature being 30°C. 3) Take 10-30 μl of the sample solution from 1) above and inject it into a liquid chromatograph to separate and determine loratadine and related substances. High-performance liquid chromatograph: Agilent 1260 InfinityII; Chromatographic column: Shim-pack GIS C18 (4.6 mm × 250 mm, 5 µm); Mobile phase A: 0.025 mol / L potassium dihydrogen phosphate buffer solution (containing 0.02% phosphoric acid) Mobile phase B: acetonitrile; Elution was performed according to the following gradient:

[0013] Flow rate: 1.0 mL / min; Column temperature: 30°C; Detection wavelength: 210nm; Injection volume: 20 μl; The invention utilizes a Shim-pack GIS C18 (250 x 4.6 mm, 5 μm) chromatographic column to effectively separate loratadine and its related substances.
