Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of drug synthesis technology, specifically relating to a method for preparing a refennaxine intermediate. Background Technology
[0002] Revefenacin, chemically named 1-(2-(4-((4-carbamoylpiperidin-1-yl)methyl)-N-methylbenzamido)ethylpiperidin-4-yl[1,1'-biphenyl]-2-ylcarbamate, was first discovered and developed by Theravance Biopharmaceuticals in Ireland in collaboration with Mylan Pharmaceuticals in the United States. It is a novel long-acting anticholinergic drug approved for marketing in the United States on November 9, 2018. Its brand name is [omitted]. Rafenasine is a long-acting muscarinic receptor antagonist that inhibits tracheal constriction caused by the release of acetylcholine from parasympathetic nerve endings by binding to M3 muscarinic receptors on bronchial smooth muscle. Clinically, it is mainly used for the maintenance treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), including the maintenance treatment of chronic bronchitis and emphysema with dyspnea, and the prevention of acute exacerbations. Its chemical structure is as follows:
[0003]
[0004] There are few literature reports on the synthesis methods of refennaxine. Its synthetic routes are mainly concentrated in the Chinese patents CN1759108A, CN1882556A, CN1930125B, CN102958916B, US20050203133A1 published by the original research company, as well as the literature J.Med.Chem., 2015, 58(6), 2609-2622, etc. Among them, the classic route is to use 2-biphenyl isocyanate (2) as the starting material, and react it with 1-benzylpiperidin-4-ol (3) to obtain 1-benzylpiperidin-4-ol. After removing the benzyl group from 1,1'-biphenyl]-2-ylcarbamate, piperidin-4-yl[1,1'-biphenyl]-2-ylcarbamate (4) is obtained. This is then reductively amination with benzylmethyl (2-oxoethyl)carbamate using sodium triacetoxyborohydride, followed by removal of the benzyloxycarbonyl group to generate 1-(2-(methylamino)ethyl)piperidin-4-yl[1,1'-biphenyl]-2-ylcarbamate (5). (5) is then reacted with p-formylbenzoic acid, and finally reductively amination with piperidin-4-carboxamide (6) using sodium triacetoxyborohydride to obtain the target product 1. The relevant reaction routes are shown below:
[0005]
[0006] However, the above process has the following problems: ① The “linear” synthesis strategy is adopted, the reaction steps are relatively long, and most of the intermediates in each step are oily liquids with low melting points, which are difficult to purify, resulting in the easy inheritance of impurities, low yield of target product, high production cost, and great difficulty in industrialization; ② In the subsequent two-step reductive amination, the moisture content of the material will also lead to a serious reduction in yield or even failure of reaction.
[0007] As shown above, 1-benzylpiperidin-4-yl[1,1'-biphenyl]-2-ylcarbamate can serve as a key intermediate in the preparation of refennaxine. Therefore, 1-benzylpiperidin-4-yl[1,1'-biphenyl]-2-ylcarbamate can directly affect the production, market supply, and quality of this drug. The specific structural formula is as follows:
[0008]
[0009] However, although the above process achieves a yield of approximately 100% in the preparation of 1-benzylpiperidin-4-yl[1,1'-biphenyl]-2-ylcarbamate, the material used, 2-biphenyl isocyanate (2), has high activity and is expensive, costing approximately 17,000 yuan / kg. The other material, 1-benzylpiperidin-4-ol (3), has a commercially available water content of approximately 0.2-0.5% and a low melting point of approximately 55-60°C, making it difficult to dry. Therefore, a large amount of the following impurities are generated during the reaction, further reducing the yield of the single-step reaction. The crude product obtained contains a low content of 1-benzylpiperidin-4-yl[1,1'-biphenyl]-2-ylcarbamate, only about 70%, requiring further purification, which further reduces the yield of this step and increases production costs. The structures of the relevant impurities are as follows:
[0010]
[0011] In summary, given the many shortcomings in the current preparation of 1-benzylpiperidin-4-yl[1,1'-biphenyl]-2-ylcarbamate, finding a simple, safe, mild reaction process with high yield and purity suitable for industrial production of 1-benzylpiperidin-4-yl[1,1'-biphenyl]-2-ylcarbamate remains a problem that needs to be solved.
