Abstract
Description
[0001] The present invention claims the following priority:
[0002] CN202010528778.5, application date: June 11, 2020. Technical Field
[0003] The present invention relates to a method for preparing a chlorinated compound, and in particular to a method for preparing a compound of formula (I). Background Art
[0004] In recent years, with changes in people's lifestyles, the incidence of hyperuricemia and gout has been increasing year by year. In Europe and the United States, epidemiological studies indicate that gouty arthritis affects 1-2% of the total population and is the most common type of arthritis in adult men. Bloomberg estimates that there will be 17.7 million gout patients in 2021. In China, a survey revealed that 25.3% of people aged 20 to 74 have elevated blood uric acid levels, and 0.36% suffer from gout. Currently, clinical treatment options primarily include: 1) drugs that inhibit uric acid production, such as the xanthine oxidase inhibitors allopurinol and febuxostat; 2) drugs that promote uricosuric acid excretion, such as probenecid and benzbromarone; and 3) anti-inflammatory drugs, such as colchicine. These drugs all have limitations, with poor efficacy, significant side effects, and high costs being key bottlenecks to their clinical application. Reports indicate that 40%-70% of patients fail to achieve the desired therapeutic target (<6 mg / dL) after standard treatment.
[0005] URAT1 is an important renal anion transporter located on the brush border membrane of renal tubular epithelial cells. It specifically transports uric acid from the renal tubules to the epithelial cells and is the primary driver of uric acid reabsorption in the renal tubules. Therefore, if the urate transporter URAT1 can be significantly inhibited, it will increase uric acid excretion in the body, thereby lowering blood uric acid levels and reducing the likelihood of gout attacks.
[0006] In December 2015, the US FDA approved AstraZeneca's first targeted URAT1 inhibitor, lesinurad, as shown below. The 200 mg / day dose was approved for combination with a xanthine oxidase inhibitor (XOI) (such as febuxostat) for the treatment of hyperuricemia and gouty arthritis. However, the additive effect of the combination was not significant compared with the XOI alone. Furthermore, the 400 mg / day dose of lesinurad was not approved due to a significant increase in toxicities (including a higher incidence of kidney-related adverse events, particularly nephrolithiasis) observed at the higher dose, despite the significant additive effect observed with the combination. Therefore, the FDA required a boxed warning to be added to the lesinurad label to alert healthcare professionals to the risk of acute renal failure with lesinurad, particularly when used without an XOI. The risk of renal failure is even higher with use of lesinurad at doses exceeding the approved dosage. Furthermore, the FDA required AstraZeneca to continue its renal and cardiovascular safety studies after the launch of lesinurad. For long-term medication for metabolic diseases, drug safety is particularly important. Therefore, the development of a safe uric acid-lowering drug has become a strong demand in this field.
[0007]
[0008] AstraZeneca's disclosed new drug application report detailed the results of in vitro metabolite identification experiments for the compound lesinurad in liver microsomes and hepatocytes from various animal species. The data showed that the two major metabolites, M3 and M4, were significantly detected in monkey and human hepatocytes, but were not detected in dog and rat hepatocytes, as shown in Table-a below.
[0009] Table-a
[0010]
[0011] At the same time, AstraZeneca also reported the main metabolites and metabolic pathways of Lesinurad after administration in various species of animals. Among them, the dihydroxy metabolite M4 was specifically detected in human metabolites:
[0012]
[0013] This is consistent with the clinical data of lesinurad in humans. Experimental data show that M3 and M4 are the main metabolites found in human clinical practice, as shown in Table-b below.
[0014] Table-b
[0015]
[0016] The production pathway of the M4 metabolite has been identified as the result of the combined action of cytochrome CYP2C9 and the primate epoxide hydrolase mEH. This mEH metabolic pathway is unique to primates, explaining why M4 was not observed in rats and dogs.

[0250] Example 1: Preparation of compound of formula (I)
[0251]
[0252] Step 1: Synthesis of compound 1-2
[0253] Compound 1-1 (1.0 kg, 4.55 mol, 1 eq) was added to 5.0 L of water, adjusted to pH 10 with a 2 M aqueous NaOH solution, and extracted with 5.0 L of ethyl acetate. The organic phase was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered, and the filter cake was washed with 2.0 L of ethyl acetate. The mother liquors were combined and concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain the free form of 1-1. This free form of 1-1 was dissolved in ethyl acetate (5.0 L) at an external temperature of 25-30°C, and then N-chlorosuccinimide (668.32 g, 5.01 mol, 1.1 eq) was added in portions. After the addition, the internal temperature was raised to 40-45°C. The resulting reaction solution was stirred for 12 hours. As the reaction proceeded, the internal temperature slowly dropped to 25-30°C. The reaction solution was filtered through diatomaceous earth and the mother liquor was collected. To this mother liquor, 7.0 L of a 10% aqueous sodium bisulfite solution was added, and the mixture was stirred for 15 minutes. The layers were separated, and the organic phase was washed twice with 7.0 L of a 10% aqueous sodium bisulfite solution each time. The resulting organic phase was then washed once with water (7.0 L) and once with a saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution (7.0 L), dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate (1 kg), filtered, and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to provide compound 1-2 (896.36 g, yield: 90.47%). 1 H NMR (400MHz, CDCl3) δ: 8.41-8.35 (m, 1H), 7.85-7.80 (m, 1H), 7.57-7.52 (m, 2H), 7.19 (d , J=0.8Hz, 1H), 4.43 (s, 2H), 2.26-2.17 (m, 1H), 1.07-0.97 (m, 2H), 0.74-0.67 (m, 2H); MS m / z: 217.9[M+H] + .

Carbon disulfide (1134.49 g, 14.9 mol, 5 eq) and triethylenediamine (1002.79 g, 8.94 mol, 3 eq) were then added sequentially with stirring. The resulting reaction solution was stirred at 30-35°C for 48 hours. After the reaction was completed, stirring was continued and the reaction solution was programmed to cool to 0°C (controlling the cooling rate at 5°C per hour). The suspension was filtered, and the filter cake was washed twice with a mixed solvent of methyl tert-butyl ether and acetone (methyl tert-butyl ether:acetone = 95:5, v:v), 100 mL each time.

[0261] Compound 1-5 (330.02 g) and ethyl acetate (3.3 L) were added to a 5L three-necked flask in sequence and stirred evenly. Sodium acetate (179.68 g) was then added at one time and stirred evenly. Methyl bromoacetate (200.86 g) was added once again and stirred evenly. The resulting reaction solution was stirred and reacted at an external temperature of 60°C for 16 hours. The reaction solution was then filtered while hot (external temperature 60°C), the filter cake was washed twice with ethyl acetate (100 mL), and the filtrate was combined. Four batches (same mass) were fed in parallel using the same process, and the ethyl acetate filtrates filtered after the reaction were combined and combined in the following manner.
[0262] First wash: Add 14 L of pure water to the ethyl acetate filtrate, stir vigorously for 20 minutes, and allow to stand to separate. After separation, the aqueous phase is discharged, and a small amount of flocculent layer remains in the ethyl acetate phase.
[0263] Second washing: Add 14 L of pure water to the ethyl acetate phase, stir vigorously for 20 minutes, and then let it stand to separate. After separation, the aqueous phase is released, and a small amount of flocculent layer remains in the ethyl acetate phase.
[0264] Third washing: To the ethyl acetate phase, add pure water 14 L, stir vigorously for 20 minutes, and then separate the layers. The lower aqueous phase is removed. The organic phase containing a small amount of flocculent is filtered through diatomite, and the filtrate is combined with the remaining organic phase (about 14 L) and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate 5 kg, filtered, and the filtrate is concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain a dark red oil. The oil is cooled to room temperature to obtain a dark red solid crude product 1-6 (1640.73 g, yield 87.11%). 1 H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ: 8.94 (s, 1H), 8.58 (d, J = 8.0 Hz, 1H), 7.84-7.66 (m, 2H), 7.52 (s, 1H), 7.12 (d, J = 8.0 Hz, 1H), 4.16-4.05 (m, 2H), 3.63 (s, 3H), 2.66-2.56 (m, 1H), 1.23-1.11 (m, 2H), 1.01-0.83 (m, 2H); MS m / z: 374.0 [M+H] + .
[0265] Step 6: Synthesis of compound 1-7
[0266] Into a 5 L three-necked flask, add compound 1-6 (330.05 g) and ethyl acetate (3.3 L) successively. Stir the mixture at 40-45 °C until it is completely dissolved. Add thionyl diimidazole (15.73 g) under stirring, and continue to stir at 40-45 °C for 10 minutes. Add N-bromosuccinimide (157.10 g) portionwise under stirring, and continue to stir the reaction mixture at 40-45 °C for 1 hour. Finally, add N-bromosuccinimide (15.74 g) again, and continue to stir at 40-45 °C for 15 minutes. Cool the reaction mixture to room temperature, filter through diatomite, wash the filter cake with ethyl acetate (200 mL) twice, and combine the filtrates. Repeat the same procedure for five batches (same amount), and combine the ethyl acetate filtrates after the reaction is completed. Then, the combined filtrates are treated as follows.
[0267] First washing: To the ethyl acetate filtrate, add pure water 17.2 L, stir vigorously for 20 minutes, and then separate the layers. The aqueous phase is removed, and a small amount of flocculent layer remains in the ethyl acetate phase.
[0268] Second washing: To the ethyl acetate phase, add 10% sodium bisulfite solution 17.2 L, stir vigorously for 20 minutes, and then separate the layers. The aqueous phase is removed, and a small amount of flocculent layer remains in the ethyl acetate phase.

[0271] Fifth wash: Add 17.2 L of pure water to the ethyl acetate filtrate, stir vigorously for 20 minutes, and allow to separate. After separation, the lower aqueous phase was discharged. The lower organic phase, which contained a small amount of flocculent material, was filtered through diatomaceous earth and combined with the remaining organic phase (approximately 17 L total), and dried over 8 kg of anhydrous sodium sulfate. The desiccant was removed by filtration, and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to yield a dark red crude solid (1562.17 g).
[0272] The dark red solid was added to methyl tert-butyl ether (5.5 L) and stirred at an external temperature of 80°C until it became clear. Then, n-heptane (3.5 L) was added to the methyl tert-butyl ether solution. After stirring at an external temperature of 60°C for 16 hours, a large amount of solid precipitated from the solution. n-heptane (2.0 L) was added and stirring continued at an external temperature of 60°C for 2 hours. The mixed solution was then programmed to cool to an external temperature of 40°C (5°C per hour). Stirring was stopped and the mixture was filtered. The filter cake was thoroughly washed with n-heptane (1.5 L). The filter cake was collected and dried under vacuum at 40°C for 2 hours to obtain a light yellow solid (1107.09 g).

Lithium hydroxide monohydrate (183.91 g) was then added all at once, and the resulting reaction solution was stirred at an external temperature of 30°C for 2 hours. After the reaction was completed, the reaction solution was cooled to room temperature (20°C). Three batches of the same process were added in parallel, and the reaction solutions were combined and processed as follows.
[0276] The combined reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure (<40°C) to remove tetrahydrofuran, and the aqueous phase was cooled to 0°C. Aqueous hydrobromic acid (40%) was added dropwise at 0°C with stirring until the mixture reached a pH of 3, resulting in the precipitation of a large amount of solid. The mixture was stirred for 16 hours at an external temperature of 20°C, and the pH was retested to 3. The mixture was filtered, and the filter cake was thoroughly washed with pure water (500 mL). The filter cake was collected and dried under vacuum at 40°C for 6 hours to obtain 895.65 g of crude compound of formula (I).
