Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of pharmaceutical synthesis technology, and specifically to a method for preparing nitroimidazole phosphate compounds. Background Technology
[0002] Levonidazole phosphate disodium hydrate, chemically named S-(-)-3-chloro-1-(2-methyl-5-nitro-1H-imidazol-1-yl)propane-2-yl phosphate sodium hydrate, belongs to the nitroimidazole class of antibacterial drugs. It is mainly used to treat anaerobic bacterial infections and protozoan infections, and has wide clinical applications. The synthesis of this product typically uses levonidazole as the starting material, reacting it with phosphorus oxychloride followed by post-processing to obtain levonidazole phosphate hydrate.
[0003] Chinese patent CN114075242B discloses an industrial production method for disodium levonitroazole phosphate. The method involves reacting levonitroazole with phosphorus oxychloride in an organic solvent, quenching the reaction with a large amount of water, adjusting the pH to 3-6 with an alkaline aqueous solution, followed by nanofiltration, and then adjusting the pH again to 9.0-13.5 with alkali to induce crystallization and obtain the target product. This process removes chloride ions through direct nanofiltration, thereby achieving desalination and to some extent avoiding excessive inorganic salt levels. Studies have shown that a large amount of phosphorus oxychloride exists in the phosphorus oxychloride reaction system. After the reaction is completed, excess phosphorus oxychloride remains. Directly adjusting the pH of the system to 3-6 without concentration will produce a large amount of inorganic salts such as sodium chloride and phosphate. The nanofiltration process is too cumbersome. Adjusting the pH of the ethanol aqueous solution after nanofiltration to 9.0-13.5 will precipitate disodium levonornidazole phosphate, but the yield is low, about 70%. If recrystallization is carried out in a GMP clean area, the total yield will be less than 60%, and there is still a risk of excessive phosphate after nanofiltration.
[0004] Chinese patent CN116535440A discloses a method for preparing levonornidazole phosphate disodium methanol hydrate. The method involves adding levonornidazole phosphate disodium hydrate to 6-10 times its volume (w / w) of anhydrous methanol, decolorizing with 0.1%-1% (w / v) of activated carbon, then adding 0.1-2.0 times its volume (w / w) of water, followed by adding 5-15 times its volume (w / w) of an antisolvent for crystallization. The antisolvent is selected from dichloromethane, ethanol, acetone, and ethyl acetate, thereby obtaining levonornidazole phosphate disodium methanol tetrahydrate. The purpose of this patent application is to provide a levonornidazole phosphate disodium methanol hydrate with low free phosphate content, controlled to a limit of no more than 0.5%. In Example 2, the phosphate content of levonornidazole phosphate disodium methanol hydrate was 0.008%, with a yield of 76%. In Example 8, the phosphate content was 0.009%, with a yield of less than 50%. The phosphate content in other examples ranged from 0.01% to 0.02%. Therefore, the phosphate content of levonornidazole phosphate disodium methanol hydrate prepared using this method is approximately 0.01% to 0.02%, and both the quality and yield are unstable, making it unsuitable for industrial production.
[0005] Levonidazole phosphate disodium hydrate is a prodrug of levonitrozine. It has good water solubility. As an injectable active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), its quality control includes not only properties, related substances, and content, but also the control of inorganic salts. The 2020 edition of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia controls chloride and sulfate content in levonitrozine API, with limits not exceeding 0.02%. Based on the synthesis process and structural characteristics of levonitrozine phosphate disodium hydrate, its molecular weight is approximately 445, while levonitrozine is approximately 219. Therefore, 1g of levonitrozine phosphate disodium hydrate is approximately equivalent to 0.5g of levonitrozine. Marketed levonitrozine phosphate disodium injections are available in 1.0g, 0.5g, and 0.25g strengths, while levonitrozine injections are available in 0.5g, 0.25g, and 0.125g strengths, with a clear dosing ratio between the strengths. Based on the control of the total intake of impurities, the phosphate limit in levonornidazole phosphate disodium hydrate should not exceed 0.01%. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for preparing high-purity levofloxacin phosphate disodium hydrate, which has the advantages of mild reaction conditions, high yield, stable quality, and suitability for industrial production.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this law adopts the following technical solution, including the following steps:
[0008] Step (1): Preparation of crude levofloxacin phosphate disodium hydrate: Levofloxacin was dissolved in an organic solvent, phosphorus oxychloride was slowly added, and after the reaction was completed, the reaction was concentrated to remove a large amount of phosphorus oxychloride. Water was then added to quench the reaction, the pH was adjusted to 4-5, the water was concentrated to remove the water, ethanol was added to dissolve the product, the mixture was filtered, the pH was adjusted to 8-10 with alkaline solution, the product was precipitated, and the mixture was filtered to obtain crude levofloxacin phosphate disodium hydrate.
[0009] The mass ratio of levonornidazole to phosphorus oxychloride is 1:1~2; the organic solvent is acetonitrile, and the mass ratio of levonornidazole to acetonitrile is 1:1.5~4; the mass ratio of levonornidazole to ethanol is 1:5~10.
[0010] Step (2): Preparation of disodium levonidazole phosphate methanol hydrate: The crude disodium levonidazole phosphate hydrate obtained in step (1) is dissolved in 8-10 times (w / w) of methanol. After filtration, 16-20 times (w / w) of acetonitrile and 0.2-0.6 times (w / w) of water are added to the filtrate. After filtration and drying, disodium levonidazole phosphate methanol hydrate is obtained.
[0011] Studies have shown that when acetonitrile is used as the antisolvent, its phosphate removal ability is significantly better than that of organic solvents such as acetone and dichloromethane. The phosphate detection amount is far below 0.01%, and the quality yield in large-scale production is greater than 80%.
[0012] Meanwhile, studies have shown that when water is not added, the precipitation effect of the antisolvent is too obvious, with a mass yield of over 90%, close to the theoretical conversion mass yield of 94%, and the removal effect of free phosphate is reduced. Therefore, the addition of water is necessary.
[0013] Step (3): Preparation of disodium levonornidazole phosphate hydrate: Disodium levonornidazole phosphate methanol hydrate was dissolved in water, filtered, and then ethanol was added to precipitate it. After filtration and drying, disodium levonornidazole phosphate hydrate was obtained.
[0014] The mass ratio of disodium levonornidazole phosphate methanol hydrate to water to ethanol is 1:1.2~1.5:3~6, and the drying temperature is 15~25℃.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: Step (1) prepares crude disodium levonitrozole phosphate, and step (2) removes excess phosphate from the disodium levonitrozole phosphate. Then, step (3) recrystallizes the product to obtain disodium levonitrozole phosphate hydrate. The product quality is stable and controlled, and the total yield of the three steps is high. Based on levonitrozole, the yield is 140% (the molecular weight of levonitrozole is 219, the molecular weight of disodium levonitrozole phosphate hydrate is 445, and the theoretical yield is 203%). Moreover, the free phosphate content is significantly lower than 0.01%, which meets the quality requirements for injectable raw materials and is suitable for industrial production.

[0019] Comparative Example 1: Preparation of crude levonornidazole phosphate disodium hydrate
[0020] Referring to Examples 1-3 of CN114075242, crude levonornidazole phosphate disodium hydrate was prepared and desalted using sodium filtration. The results are as follows:
[0021] Add 330g acetonitrile and 90g levonidazole to the reactor, start stirring, add 100g phosphorus oxychloride, raise to room temperature and stir until the reaction is complete, add 250g water, and stir at 40℃ for 1h. Adjust the pH to 4 with 30% potassium hydroxide, transfer the solution (1ml by weight) to a nanofiltration device, after nanofiltration, transfer the solution to the reactor, add 30% potassium hydroxide, adjust the solution to pH 9.5, stir at room temperature to crystallize for 2h, filter, collect the filter cake, add 50g water and the above filter cake to the reactor, stir to dissolve, add 100g ethanol and 100g acetone respectively, stir to crystallize for 4h, filter and dry to obtain 49.5g of product (No.: LO-0500437-09-S02), with a mass yield of approximately 55%.
[0022] Free phosphate test: Levofloxacin disodium hydrate, the UV absorbance of the test sample's free phosphate was lower than that of the reference solution, but it was still detectable. Sodium filtration can remove a large amount of free phosphate, but a small amount remains, less than 0.01%, but the yield is low.
[0023] Comparative Example 2: Preparation of Levonidazole Phosphate Disodium Methanol Hydrate
[0024] Referring to Example 2 of CN116535440A, which is the optimal example for phosphate residue, the process was reproduced, and the residual free phosphoric acid in the obtained disodium levonornidazole methanol hydrate and the yield were investigated as follows:
[0025] Take 50g of crude levofloxacin phosphate disodium hydrate, add 380g of anhydrous methanol and dissolve at room temperature, add 1.5g of activated carbon and decolorize at room temperature for 20min, filter, stir the filtrate, add 750g of acetone dropwise, crystallize for 3 hours after addition, filter, dry the filter cake at 30℃ for 3 hours to obtain 36.5g of product (No.: LO-0500437-09-S03), with a yield of about 73%.
[0026] Test for free phosphate: The UV absorbance of the test sample free phosphate disodium methanol hydrate was lower than that of the reference solution, indicating that the yield was low when using 7.6 times the amount of methanol for dissolution and 15 times the amount of acetone as the antisolvent. Although a large amount of free phosphate could be removed and the free phosphate residue was less than 0.01%, there was still a risk of residue.
[0027] Comparative Example 3: Preparation of Levonidazole Phosphate Disodium Methanol Hydrate
[0028] Referring to Example 11 of CN116535440A, which yielded the best results, the process was reproduced. The residual free phosphoric acid in the obtained disodium levonornidazole methanol hydrate and the yield were investigated, and the results are as follows:
[0029] Take 100g of crude disodium levonidazole phosphate, dissolve it in 800g of methanol and 10g of acetone, stir and dissolve at room temperature, add 3.0g of activated carbon for decolorization, add 100g of water, and then add 800g of anhydrous ethanol dropwise. Continue stirring to induce crystallization. After crystallization is complete, filter and air dry the filter cake at 25℃ to obtain 81.5g of product (No.: LO-0500437-09-S04), with a yield of approximately 81.5%.
[0030] Test for free phosphate: The UV absorbance of the free phosphate in the test sample was higher than that in the reference solution, indicating that the phosphate exceeded the limit. This suggests that using 8 times the amount of methanol to dissolve the sample, adding 1 times the amount of water, and then using 8 times the amount of ethanol as the antisolvent resulted in a higher yield and could remove a large amount of free phosphate. However, there were still residues, which were greater than 0.01%. The impurity removal effect was slightly worse than that of acetone.
[0031] Comparative Example 4: Preparation of Levonidazole Phosphate Disodium Methanol Hydrate
[0032] Referring to the technical solution of claim 5 in CN116535440A, the residual free phosphoric acid and yield in the obtained disodium levonornidazole methanol hydrate were investigated, and the results are as follows:
[0033] Take 100g of crude disodium levonidazole phosphate, dissolve it in 1000g of anhydrous methanol, add 0.5% (w / v) activated carbon for decolorization for 20min, filter, stir the filtrate, add 40g of water dropwise, then add 500g of acetone dropwise to precipitate crystals for 1-4 hours, filter, and air dry the filter cake at 25℃ to obtain 46.2g of product (No.: LO-0500437-09-S05), with a yield of approximately 46.2%.
[0034] Free phosphate test: The UV absorbance of the free phosphate in the test sample was lower than that in the reference solution, indicating that the yield was low when 10 times the amount of methanol was used for dissolution and 5 times the amount of acetone was used as the antisolvent. Although a large amount of free phosphate could be removed, there was still a residue of about 0.01%.
[0035] Comparative Example 5: Preparation of Levonidazole Phosphate Disodium Methanol Hydrate
[0036] Referring to the technical solution of claim 5 in CN116535440A, the residual free phosphoric acid and yield in the obtained disodium levonornidazole methanol hydrate were investigated, and the results are as follows:
[0037] Take 100g of crude disodium levonidazole phosphate, dissolve it in 600g of anhydrous methanol, add 0.5% (w / v) activated carbon for decolorization for 20min, filter, stir the filtrate, add 30g of water dropwise, then add 1000g of acetone dropwise to precipitate crystals for 1-4 hours, filter, and air dry the filter cake at 25℃ to obtain 82.9g of product (No.: LO-0500437-09-S06), with a yield of approximately 82.9%.
[0038] Free phosphate: disodium levonornidazole phosphate methanol complex. The UV absorbance of the test sample free phosphate was slightly greater than that of the reference solution, indicating that using 6 times the amount of methanol for dissolution and then using 10 times the amount of acetone as the antisolvent can remove a large amount of free phosphate, but there is still a residue of about 0.01%.

Cool the filtrate to 0-10℃, adjust the pH to 8-10 with 30% sodium hydroxide aqueous solution, and crystallize at 0-10℃. Filter to obtain 16.3 kg of crude levonidazole phosphate disodium hydrate (No.: LO-0500437-09-S01), with a yield of 163%.
[0041] Free phosphate test: The UV absorbance of the crude disodium levonornidazole phosphate was significantly greater than that of the control solution, and the free phosphate content was significantly greater than 0.01%, indicating that there was a large amount of free phosphate in the crude product.
