Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of biomedical technology, specifically to a method for synthesizing the BTK inhibitor pyrobrutinib. Background Technology
[0002] Pirtobrutinib (also known as pyritobactinib, research code: LOXO-305, trade name: Jaypirca) is a small molecule BTK inhibitor. On January 27, 2023, Eli Lilly announced accelerated approval from the FDA for its next-generation BTK inhibitor, pyritobactinib, for adult patients with relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) who have received at least two lines of systemic therapy (including BTK inhibitors). Pirtobrutinib is also the first and, to date, the only non-covalent (reversible) BTK inhibitor approved by the FDA. Previously marketed small molecule BTK inhibitors were all covalent BTK inhibitors, which mainly exert their inhibitory effect by forming a covalent bond with cysteine residues at the BTK active site. However, covalent binding is prone to resistance mutations. Pirtobrutinib can re-establish BTK inhibition in MCL patients who have previously been treated with covalent BTK inhibitors (ibrutinib, acalabrutinib, or zanubrutinib).

[0005] However, the current synthetic methods for pitobrutinib still need improvement. Summary of the Invention
[0006] This invention aims to at least partially solve one of the technical problems in related technologies. To this end, one object of this invention is to provide a method for synthesizing pyrobrutinib, a compound of Formula I. Compared to existing technologies, this route is shorter, consisting of five reaction steps. This invention directly utilizes ammonia borane to convert the ester group to an amide, which can shorten the reaction by one or two steps. The subsequent substitution reaction of the amide can effectively improve the yield. In the final step, compared to the general use of methanesulfonic acid to convert the cyano group to an amide in the literature, this invention replaces the acid with concentrated sulfuric acid, increasing the reaction yield from approximately 80% in existing technologies to 89.5% in this invention.

[0048] According to a specific embodiment of the present invention, the synthetic route of the compound pyrobrutinib shown in Formula I can be as follows:
[0049]
[0050] Compared with existing technologies, the method for synthesizing the BTK small molecule inhibitor pyrobrutinib described in this invention has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0051] 1. Innovation in reaction steps: In step (1), the compound shown in formula 1 undergoes a substitution reaction with iodomethane to obtain the compound shown in formula 2; in step (2), the compound shown in formula 2 reacts with ammonia borane (NH3BH3) to generate an amide, obtaining the compound shown in formula 3; in step (3), the compound shown in formula 3 undergoes an alkylation reaction with a haloalkane under alkaline conditions to generate the compound shown in formula 4; in step (4), the compound shown in formula 4 and the compound shown in formula 5 react under a Pd catalyst. Under chemical agent conditions The Suzuki coupling reaction yields the compound shown in Formula 6; in step (5), the compound shown in Formula 6... The cyano group in the product reacts under strong acid (H2SO4) conditions to yield the product pyrobrutinib. Compared to common synthetic routes in the literature, which mostly involve more than 8 steps, this route shortens the steps, reducing the reaction from 8 steps in the prior art to 5 steps in this invention.
[0052] 2. Technological Innovation: The starting material chosen in this invention is 5-fluoro-2-hydroxybenzoic acid, which is about 20% cheaper than 5-fluoro-2-methoxybenzoic acid, resulting in good economic benefits. Compared to the conversion of methyl 5-fluoro-2-methoxybenzoate to amides, which requires first converting it to the corresponding benzoic acid and then reacting it with an amino group, this invention directly uses ammonia borane (NH3BH3) to convert the ester group to the amide, shortening the reaction by one or two steps. Subsequent substitution reactions of the amide in this invention can effectively improve the yield. In the final step, compared to the common use of methanesulfonic acid to convert the cyano group to the amide in the literature, this invention replaces the acid with concentrated sulfuric acid, increasing the reaction yield from approximately 80% in existing technologies to 89.5% in this invention. Furthermore, the purification of most of the five-step reaction is achieved through recrystallization, avoiding column chromatography purification, reducing purification difficulty, and demonstrating good economic efficiency and operability.
[0053] 3. In summary, this route has the advantages of low raw material cost, high yield, and simple purification, making it easy to industrialize and very suitable for large-scale industrial production. Detailed Implementation
