TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of chemical pharmacy, and particularly relates to a phenylaminopropionic acid sodium derivative, and further relates to a preparation method of the phenylaminopropionic acid sodium derivative and a use of the phenylaminopropionic acid sodium derivative as a raw material drug or quality control of a preparation in a drug of siglitinide or a derivative thereof; in particular, the phenylaminopropionic acid sodium derivative can be used as a control or standard for impurity or related substance inspection in a raw material drug or preparation of siglitinide or a salt (such as a sodium salt) thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] 2-(2-(4-fluorobenzoyl)phenylamino)-3-(4-(2-(9H-carbazol-9-yl)ethoxy)phenyl)propanoic acid, commonly known as siglitinide, is a phenylalanine compound having therapeutic and prophylactic activities on metabolic diseases, and has the chemical structural formula as follows:

[0003]

[0004] The pharmacological activities of the compound are described in Chinese Patent Application No. CN03126974.5 and US Patent Application No. US7,268,157. Siglitinide has the ability to selectively activate PPAR-alpha, PPAR-gamma and PPAR-delta, and can be used for treating diseases related to metabolic syndrome, such as diabetes, hypertension, obesity, insulin resistance, hypertriglyceridemia, hyperglycemia, high cholesterol, atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, etc.

[0005] In the prior art, Chinese Patent Application No. 201610855107.3 and Chinese Patent Application No. 201410856282.5 disclose a synthesis method of siglitinide and its sodium salt.

[0006] A method for industrialized preparation of siglitinide is disclosed in Chinese Patent Application No. 201610855107.3, and the synthesis route is as follows:

[0007]

[0008]

[0009] The method is suitable for industrial production, and the obtained target compound has high purity. However, siglitinide has poor stability, and is prone to decomposition during drug manufacturing, storage and transportation, which seriously affects the safety and effectiveness of the drug, and therefore, it is necessary to prepare a sodium salt thereof, i.e., siglitinide sodium, which has better stability. A preparation method of siglitinide sodium is disclosed in Chinese Patent Application No. 201410856282.5, and the method is as follows:

[0010]

[0011] According to the preparation method in the prior art, the purity of sitagliptan sodium prepared is greater than 99%, and the process is stable and controllable, and is suitable for industrial production. However, the present inventors have unexpectedly found, through a large number of studies, that

[0012] HPLC analysis (chromatographic column: C 18 Column, Shim-pack VP-ODS 5 μm 250Lx4.6; mobile phase: methanol-water-tetrahydrofuran-acetic acid 40:30:30:0.5; detection wavelength: 236 nm; flow rate: 1.5 mL / min) shows that there is always an unknown structure impurity at a relative retention value of about 2.4, and the content of the impurity fluctuates within a certain range with the relative proportion of the use amount of raw material 1 and raw material 2. When the ratio of raw material 1 to raw material 2 is 1:1, the content of the impurity is about 0.18% (area normalization method); when the ratio of raw material 1 to raw material 2 is 1:1.5, the content of the impurity is about 0.06% (area normalization method). Since the existence and structure of the impurity have not been disclosed and reported in the prior art, and its pharmacological and toxicological properties are unknown, it poses a risk to safe medication. At the same time, since the structure of the impurity is unknown, and the prior art has not disclosed and reported any impurity information and separation method of sitagliptan sodium, it brings great difficulty to the separation and identification of the impurity.

[0013] On the one hand, in order to ensure the safety of patients, it is necessary to confirm the structure of the unknown impurity; on the other hand, it is necessary to study the preparation method of the impurity compound, obtain its reference substance or reference standard, and use it for quality control of sitagliptan or sitagliptan sodium and the like, especially as a reference substance or reference standard for related substance / impurity inspection. SUMMARY

[0014] Based on the above needs in the prior art, one of the purposes of the present application is to disclose the above unknown structure compound existing in sitagliptan or sitagliptan sodium salt and the like prepared by the process in the prior art.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0040] The present application is further illustrated by the following examples, but the scope of the present application is not limited to these examples. The percentages described in the present application are percentages by weight unless otherwise specified. The numerical ranges described in the present specification in terms of measurement units or percentages are intended to serve as a deliberate limitation. The skilled person will be able to obtain the intended results using temperatures, concentrations, amounts, etc. outside the ranges described herein or different from the individual numerical values, based on the teachings and principles of the present application.

[0041] Terms and definitions:

[0042] "Derivative": In the present application, the derivatives of sitagliptin include not only sitagliptin free acid, but also salts thereof, such as inorganic salts, for example, sodium salt, and hydrates thereof.

[0043] "Impurity" and "relative retention value": Any substance that affects the purity of a drug is called an impurity. Generally, impurities refer to other chemical substances than the active pharmaceutical substance introduced or generated during production and storage. It is well known to the skilled person that minor products, by-products and additional reagents (collectively referred to as "impurities") can be identified using spectroscopic methods and by other physical methods, whereby the impurities are associated with a peak position in chromatography (or a spot on a thin layer chromatography plate) (Strobel, H. A.; Heineman, W. R., Chemical Instrumentation: A systematic Approach, 3rd. (Wiley & Sons: New York 1989)). Thereafter, the impurities can be identified by their position in the chromatography, which is usually expressed in minutes between the injection of the sample into the column and the elution of the specific component through the detector, and is called "retention time". This time period varies from day to day based on the conditions of the instrument used and many other factors. To mitigate the effect of such variations on the accurate identification of impurities, the skilled person uses "relative retention time" (or relative retention value) to identify impurities. The relative retention value of an impurity is the ratio of its retention time to the retention time of a reference marker, such as a control or a reference standard.

[0044] "Control" and "standard": As known to those skilled in the art of pharmaceutical development, a compound of reasonably high purity can be used as a "standard" or "control". A control is generally a standard substance used for the identification, testing, assay, and calibration of the performance of an assay instrument, while a standard is generally a standard substance used for the assay or potency determination of an antibiotic or biologic drug product. In the present invention, the two terms are not strictly distinguished. A standard can be used for qualitative analysis as well as for quantitative determination of the amount of a compound of interest in an unknown mixture. When a solution of a standard of known concentration is analyzed using the same technique as the unknown mixture, the standard is an "external standard". The amount of the compound in the mixture can be determined by comparing the size of the detector response. See also U.S. Patent 6,333,198, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. If the "response factor" that compensates for the difference in sensitivity of the detector for the two compounds has been previously determined, the standard can also be used to measure the amount of another compound in a mixture. For this purpose, the standard is added directly to the mixture, and is referred to as an "internal standard". A standard can also be used as an internal standard when the unknown mixture is caused to contain a detectable amount of a reference standard by a technique known as "standard addition", without the deliberate addition of the standard.
