Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of pharmaceutical separation technology, and specifically relates to a new salt form of glycyrrhizin and its crystallization preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Climbazole (CAS number: 38083-17-9), also known as chloroether ketone, with the IUPAC name 1-(4-chlorophenoxy)-1-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)-3,3-dimethyl-2-butanone, has the chemical formula C15H17ClN2O2 and a relative molecular mass of 292.76. Its structure is shown in the figure below. It appears as white or grayish-white crystals, sparingly soluble in water, but readily soluble in toluene and alcohols. The pharmaceutical form is a racemic compound composed of equimolar amounts of R- and S-climbazole.
[0003] Climbazole is a classic imidazole antifungal agent with broad-spectrum bactericidal properties. Its bactericidal mechanism involves inhibiting the synthesis of lanosterol 14-α-demethylase in cytochrome P450 enzymes, thereby preventing ergosterol biosynthesis and increasing the fluidity of fungal cell membranes, thus inhibiting fungal growth. It is mainly used in anti-itch and anti-dandruff conditioning shampoos and conditioners, and can also be used in high-end detergents such as antibacterial soaps, shower gels, medicated toothpastes, and mouthwashes.
[0004] Salting is an effective method to both preserve pharmacological properties and improve the physicochemical properties of drugs. Ganbaosu, a promising local broad-spectrum antifungal drug, has long had its application scope and environmental friendliness limited by its poor water solubility. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct research on new salt forms of Ganbaosu. Malonic acid is commonly used as an intermediate in organic synthesis in pharmaceutical ligands for the synthesis of various drug molecules, such as antibiotics, anti-inflammatory drugs, and anticoagulants. Summary of the Invention
