Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application falls broadly in the field of medicinal chemistry, specifically relating to a method for preparing mopidazole. Background Technology

[0002] Mopidamol, also known as 2,2,2,2-(4-(piperidin-1-yl)pyrimidino[5,4-d]pyrimidin-2,6-diyl)bis(azatriyl))tetra(ethyl-1-ol), is a yellow crystalline powder, odorless, readily soluble in chloroform, dimethyl sulfoxide, and N,N-dimethylformamide, slightly soluble in acetone, insoluble in water, and has a melting point of 157-158°C.

[0003] Mopitazone is a phosphodiesterase inhibitor and a dipyridamole derivative. It possesses anticancer activity and can prevent retinal vascular defects in experimental diabetes. It has been extensively studied and applied in cardiovascular disease medications. Studies have shown that mopitazone's main pharmacological effects are vasodilation, inhibition of platelet aggregation and adhesion, and antithrombotic effects. In recent years, further research has shown that mopitazone can inhibit viral replication and has been used to treat viral upper respiratory tract infections and rotavirus enteritis. It inhibits phosphodiesterase, preventing the breakdown of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), stabilizing mast cells, inhibiting degranulation (release of vasoactive substances), and also inhibiting the entry of dioxane nucleotides, deoxycytosine, and nucleosides into cells. Furthermore, it inhibits RNA viruses and certain DNA viruses, preventing the specific replication process of viruses.

[0004] In modern technology, the typical synthetic method for mopiridol involves preparing dipyridamole from diethanolamine and 2,6-dichloro-4,8-bis(piperidin-1-yl)pyrimidino[5,4-d]pyrimidino at high temperatures of 150-200°C, followed by reduction with Zn powder and oxidation with the participation of I2 to obtain mopiridol. However, the starting material, pyrimidino[5,4-d]pyrimidino-2,4,6,8-tetraol, has poor solubility, requiring PCl5 or other solubilizing agents, and the conditions are strict and the conversion is incomplete. Furthermore, the high temperature during the preparation of dipyridamole easily generates impurities, making purification difficult, and it is hard to achieve a chemical purity of 98% or higher. Mopiridol is an important organic compound. Therefore, developing a synthetic method with good yield, high purity, mild reaction, and low cost is an urgent problem to be solved.
