Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing dehydroepiandrosterone by aqueous phase enzyme catalysis. Background Art

[0002] Dehydroepiandrosterone, also known as dehydroepiandrosterone, is called dehydroepiandrosterone in English, or DHEA for short. Its chemical name is 3β-hydroxyandrost-5-ene-17-one, with a molecular formula of C19H28O2, a molecular weight of 288.43, and a CAS number of 53-43-0. Its structural formula is as follows:

[0003]

[0004] Dehydroepiandrosterone is an adrenal hormone precursor secreted by the reticular layer of the human adrenal cortex. It has physiological activities such as regulating obesity, preventing diabetes, resisting carcinogenesis and viral infection, improving memory, immune response and stress response, and reducing tension. It can participate in the synthesis of various hormones secreted by the adrenal glands and is an intermediate in the manufacture of steroid hormones.

[0005] According to literature and patent reports, the current routes for synthesizing dehydroepiandrosterone are mainly the following:

[0006] 1) Chemical method

[0007] Using 4-androstenedione (4-AD) as the raw material, the three keto groups are first esterified, then the keto group at position 17 is protected, and then reduced to obtain three hydroxyl groups, and finally the 17th position is deprotected to finally obtain dehydroepiandrosterone. The reaction formula is as follows:

[0008]

[0009] This method is a purely chemical synthesis method, which involves many steps, requires metal catalysts, generates a large amount of wastewater, and has a relatively high production cost.

[0010] 2) Biological fermentation method

[0011] Using sterol as the starting material, first protect the hydroxyl group at position 3, then remove the side chain at position 17 through fermentation to obtain the keto group at position 17, and finally hydrolyze to obtain dehydroepiandrosterone. The reaction formula is as follows:

[0012]

[0013] This method requires a fermentation method, and the stability and post-processing of the fermentation have always been key factors restricting industrialization.

[0014] 3) Bio-enzyme catalysis method

[0015] Using 4-androstenedione as the starting material, after double bond transposition, dehydroepiandrosterone is obtained by 3-keto reductase. As reported in patents CN 106086148 A, CN 109312382 A, and CN 105695551 A, after 5-androstenedione (5-AD) is synthesized, an organic phase system is used for enzyme catalysis conversion, which will increase the impurities of the product, and the organic solvent will inactivate the enzyme, increasing the production cost.
