Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of biomaterial synthesis, and in particular to a preparation method, application, administration and preparation device of a class of catechol derivatives. Background Art

[0002] Catechol (catechol) is an organic compound. Catechol exists as a functional group (catechol group) in natural products such as caffeic acid, dopamine, levodopa (L-DOPA), danshensu (DSS), rosmarinic acid (RMA), salvianolic acid (including but not limited to A to H, J to Y), lithospermic acid, salicylic acid, yunnaneicacids, shimobashiric acids (B, C) and globoidnanA and their derivatives. They often have certain biological activities, and some have even become drugs or health products. For example, levodopa is the most effective and important drug for the treatment of Parkinson's disease; danshensu is a drug for the treatment of chest tightness and angina pectoris caused by coronary heart disease; salvianolic acid is used to treat acute myocardial infarction, cerebral thrombosis and other diseases; rosmarinic acid is used as an antioxidant and anti-ultraviolet additive.

[0003] Both L-DOPA and Danshensu are catechol derivatives and are natural products of the phenylpropionic acid class (C6+C3); CarbiDOPA is a synthetic L-DOPA derivative, also known as methyldopa hydrazine, and is a DDC inhibitor of dopa decarboxylase (DDCI). They are very similar in structure, with the only difference being the substituents on α-C.

[0004] The catechol groups in catechol derivatives are easily oxidized into quinones, which can undergo irreversible cross-linking reactions with themselves or other reagents, and even produce substances with toxic side effects, which seriously affect the purity and activity of catechol derivatives. Therefore, exploring suitable catechol protecting groups or protection measures is the key to the successful preparation of natural products or derivatives containing catechol.

[0005] Moreover, as early as 1974, patents US 3803120 and US4035507 proposed the use of DOPA-containing oligopeptides as anti-Parkinson's disease prodrugs, and pointed out that these oligopeptides have good water solubility; however, the synthesis method of DOPA-containing oligopeptides is relatively complicated, requiring multiple steps of reaction, and there are problems such as complicated reaction process and high cost.

[0006] At the same time, in terms of drug administration, currently developed methods include oral administration, gastrostomy administration of DuoDOPA enteric gel, subcutaneous injection, continuous intravenous injection, continuous oral administration, continuous transdermal administration, and pulmonary administration. However, oral administration will have a weaning period over time, and gastrointestinal dysfunction and food effects affect the absorption of levodopa. In the gastrostomy administration of DuoDOPA enteric gel, Parkinson's patients need to go through a gastrostomy - implanting a tube to the duodenum for administration, which has the problem that the suspension preparation is easily caused by long-term placement. The drug can cause bidopa to precipitate and aggregate; the byproducts are ammonia and hydrazine, which makes the drug easy to deteriorate; the shelf life is short, and it needs to be stored and transported at -20°C, which is cumbersome to use and expensive to treat; in addition, the gastrostomy catheter administration method is prone to catheter dislocation, displacement, occlusion, kinking, connector damage and accidental removal, and is also prone to stoma and other infections; the subcutaneous injection dosage is relatively small, and drug absorption is greatly affected by the skin location and thickness, and is also significantly affected by individual differences and gender differences; continuous intravenous administration requires patients to actively adhere to subcutaneous injections, This results in poor patient compliance and the risk of infection during the injection process. In the continuous administration method with dental braces, the levodopa / carbidopa compound is placed in a medicine box on one side of the braces and absorbed by swallowing after soaking in saliva. The fluctuation range of blood drug concentration in patients using this method is significantly lower than that of intermittent oral administration. However, the size of the dental braces is large, and patients who wear them for a long time have a more serious foreign body sensation in their mouths, which affects their daily lives. In addition, the compound preparation lacks the necessary flavoring agents, is bland, and patient compliance is not high. Transdermal continuous administration uses a micropump to deliver a continuous and stable subcutaneous dose for 24 hours. The administration of levodopa can provide a stable and effective level of levodopa, and its variability is lower than that of standard oral levodopa, but the minimally invasive method will still cause wounds, and it is mainly aimed at people with advanced Parkinson's disease, and the applicable population is small; in pulmonary administration, levodopa, as an inhaled drug, does not rely on digestive tract absorption. It quickly enters the blood through lung absorption and is administered using a passive breath-driven drug delivery system. However, since there are many factors that affect the lung deposition rate of drug particles, the reproducibility is relatively poor. In addition, this method of administration is prone to cause sneezing, coughing, and breath holding and other adverse reactions.

[0007] Danshensu derives a large number of natural products, such as salvianolic acid, by forming ester bonds with its α-hydroxyl group; Danshensu and its derivatives are widely used in the pharmaceutical industry. The Pharmacopoeia of the People's Republic of China (2020 edition) records 179 prescriptions containing Danshen ingredients; in 2022, the in-hospital sales of drugs containing Danshen ingredients exceeded 7.34 billion yuan. At present, in the process of artificially synthesizing danshensu derivatives (such as salvianolic acid AD), because the catechol protection measures (such as methyl ether) used are too strong, when deprotecting catechol after the carbon skeleton is constructed, harsh reaction conditions are required to achieve effective deprotection; this causes a large number of ester bonds in danshensu derivatives to break, resulting in low yield of the target product, many impurities, difficult separation and purification, and poor economic benefits. Summary of the invention

It is suitable for patients in the middle and late stages of Parkinson's disease, has a wide coverage, and is extremely feasibility and practical.

[0012] A fourth object of the present invention is to provide a preparation apparatus for acetal / ketone protection of a catechol group.

In the case where boric acid causes adverse side reactions, boric acid can be omitted, and a reducing agent and an inert gas can be used in combination, or only a reducing agent can be added. Inert gases include but are not limited to argon (Ar) and nitrogen (N2), preferably Ar.

[0024] Bases include but are not limited to triethylamine (Et3N), sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, potassium carbonate, sodium phosphate, sodium hydroxide, etc.; preferably sodium carbonate.

[0028] The present invention adopts three measures to avoid oxidative crosslinking of catechol groups under alkaline conditions: a. the reducing agent reacts with residual oxygen to consume dissolved oxygen, thereby avoiding oxidation of catechol groups by oxygen, b. the inert gas keeps the reaction system in an anaerobic condition, and c. the catechol groups and boric acid form an oxidation-resistant complex in situ. In addition, the present invention avoids the occurrence of a large amount of Lossen rearrangement byproducts or oligopeptide byproducts by controlling the molar ratio of compound I to reactant II.

[0029] At the same time, the present invention utilizes compound III to be dissolved in a mixed solvent in the form of a salt under high pH (6.5-11) conditions, so that low-polar impurities can be washed away easily using an organic extractant, and compound III is only slightly washed away or not washed away at all; the pH of the mixed solution is adjusted to 1-5, compound III exists in the form of a neutral molecule, and is extracted into an organic phase by an organic extractant, while unreacted compound I is protonated and does not enter the organic phase; finally, the organic phase is washed successively with an acid solution, brine, and pure water to further remove impurities with high polarity, thereby obtaining compound III (i.e., a catechol derivative) with high purity; and the purity of compound III can be further improved by recrystallization in a suitable solvent to meet the purity requirements of pharmacy.

[0030] Preferably, for levodopa or carbidopa derivatives protected by acid-labile protecting groups (such as Boc), hydrochloric acid or TFA can be used for deprotection to obtain levodopa or carbidopa dipeptides, that is, when compound III is a Boc-modified catechol derivative (such as Boc-AA-DOPA-OH and Boc-AA-CarbiDOPA-OH), the Boc- in the catechol derivative is further converted to H- (that is, the amino protecting group is removed and the catechol derivative is deprotected to obtain an amino acid-modified catechol derivative), for example, Boc-AA-DOPA-OH and Boc-AA-CarbiDOPA-OH are converted to H-AA-DOPA-OH and H-AA-CarbiDOPA-OH.

[0031] Preferably, for levodopa or carbidopa derivatives protected by acid-stable protecting groups (e.g., Fmoc-, Phth-, 2-C1-Cbz-), an acetonide cyclization reaction can be further performed to protect the phenolic hydroxyl group of catechol to form a useful reagent (e.g., Fmoc-DOPA(Acetonide)-OH, Phth-DOPA(Acetonide)-OH, 2-C1-Cbz-DOPA(Acetonide)-OH), i.e., the catechol group in the levodopa or carbidopa derivative is further acetal / ketone protected; the levodopa or carbidopa derivative can also be deprotected (i.e., the amino protecting group is removed) to obtain an amino acid-modified catechol derivative / dipeptide; wherein, the acetal / ketone protection of the catechol group in the catechol derivative comprises the following steps:

[0032] S10: In a reaction device (e.g., a three-necked flask), a certain amount of compound IV (compound IV includes N-modified (e.g., N-Fmoc, N-Phth, N-Tfa, etc., fatty acids, lipopeptides, etc.) catechol derivatives in compound III, but does not include Boc-modified catechol derivatives) and a cosolvent are added, and heated to form a solution;

[0033] S20: adding a certain amount of carrier to the reaction device, introducing inert gas, heating to 70-120° C., reflux for about 20 minutes, and using the absorbent in the absorption device to absorb water and by-products;

[0034] S30: adding reactant V (the molar ratio of compound IV to reactant V is controlled in the range of 1:1 to 1:10, preferably 1:2) and a catalyst, and continuing to reflux for about 2-5 hours until most of compound IV is consumed; adding a small amount of reactant V again (adding 0.5-3 molar equivalents of reactant V, preferably 1 molar equivalent), and after distilling out part of the volatile substances (about 20 minutes), stopping the reaction to obtain compound VI; the reaction formula is as follows:

[0035]

[0036] The step S30 further includes: after stopping the reaction, when the temperature drops to near room temperature, slowly adding an appropriate amount of pyridine (2 equivalents) using a syringe, removing volatiles by rotary evaporation, extracting the residue with EA, washing with 0.01N0.5mol / L citric acid solution, and washing with pure water; taking the organic phase, adding magnesium sulfate to dry, filtering, and rotary evaporating to dryness; the obtained crude product is recrystallized in TLN / n-hexane (HXN) to obtain a high-purity compound VI.

[0037] Wherein, the compound IV includes but is not limited to compound III, R1 includes but is not limited to Me, COOH, CH2COOH and other substituents; R2 includes but is not limited to H, Me, Et, F, Cl, Br, OH and other substituents; R5 is a combination of amino or hydrazine and its corresponding protecting groups, including but not limited to -NHFmoc, -NHNHFmoc, -NHCbz, -NPhth, -NHTfa, -NTFa-NHTfa, C 15 H 31 CO-NH-, C 12 H 25 CO-NH-, C 12 H 25 CO-Val-NH-, Fmoc-Val-NH-, etc.

[0038] The co-solvent is a solvent with high solubility for compound IV, including but not limited to THF, acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, ether, etc., preferably acetone. The carrier includes but is not limited to benzene, TLN, xylene, etc., preferably benzene; the carrier is used to remove water and by-products from the reaction system by azeotropic distillation.

[0042] In the compound VI, R6 is a structure formed by acetalization or ketalization of the reactant V and the catechol group, including but not limited to formal, acetal, benzaldehyde, acetone, cyclopentanone, cyclohexanone, benzophenone, methoxymethylene (MOM), ethoxymethylene (EOM), etc., preferably acetone. The compound VI includes but is not limited to Fmoc-DOPA (Acetonide) -OH, Fmoc-DOPA (Cyclohexanonide) -OH, Fmoc-DOPA (benzophenone) -OH, Phth-DOPA (Acetonide) -OH, Cbz-DOPA (Acetonide) -OH, Tfa-DOPA (Acetonide) -OH, Fmoc-Val-DOPA (Acetonide) -OH, Fmoc-(2-Cl-Cbz)CarbiDOPA (Acetonide) -OH, C 12 H 25 CO-Val-DOPA(Acetonide)-OH, etc.

[0043] The present invention adopts a method of adding the reactant V in batches, which not only avoids the generation of more by-products when the reactant V is excessive, but also avoids the problem of too low conversion rate of compound IV when the reactant V is insufficient. The first addition of reactant V: the molar amount of compound IV to the molar amount of reactant V is controlled in the range of 1:1 to 1:10, preferably 1:2; the second addition of reactant V: 0.5-3 molar equivalents of reactant V are added before the reaction is almost finished, preferably 1 molar equivalent.

[0044] The present invention adopts a more effective by-product removal device (absorption device of the present invention), improves conversion efficiency, increases product purity, and reduces the difficulty of product separation and purification; in addition, the present invention successfully amplifies the ketal reaction by multiple times using absorption device A, thereby realizing mass production. Moreover, the present invention adopts a TLN / HXN solvent system for recrystallization, better separates the target product from its methyl ester, reduces the impurity content, and improves the purity of the target product VI.

[0045] Preferably, the method further comprises converting the byproduct containing dopa methyl ester into a target carboxylic acid;

[0046] When the catechol group in the catechol derivative is protected by acetal / ketone, a by-product containing DOPA methyl ester is generated. The present invention provides a method for converting the by-product containing DOPA methyl ester into a target carboxylic acid, and a method for preparing acetal / ketone protected carboxylic acid substances of DOPA analogs. The method can selectively decompose the methyl ester compound VII and convert it into compound VIII (including but not limited to compound VI).

[0047] The conversion of the dopa methyl ester-containing byproduct into the target carboxylic acid comprises:

[0049] 2) dissolving a certain amount of lithium salt (LiX) in a small amount of water to obtain a lithium salt solution, and adding the lithium salt solution to the above-mentioned methyl ester compound VII solution; adjusting the pH of the reaction system to 7-8 with hydrochloric acid, and then adding a certain amount of alkali, and stirring for 3-24 hours;

[0050] 3) Concentrate the organic phase by rotary evaporation, add water, adjust the pH to 3-5 with HCl solution, extract with EA, wash the organic phase with acid water and pure water respectively; take the organic phase, add anhydrous magnesium sulfate to dry, filter, and rotary evaporate to remove volatiles, and recrystallize in TLN / HXN to obtain high-purity compound VIII; the reaction formula is as follows:

[0051]

[0052] Wherein, the lithium salt includes but is not limited to lithium halide, lithium trifluoromethanesulfonate, lithium perchlorate, etc.; preferably lithium bromide. The organic solvent includes but is not limited to THF, acetonitrile, acetone, etc.; preferably acetonitrile. The base is a common organic base, including but not limited to Et3N, diisopropylethylamine (DIEA), etc.; preferably DIEA.

[0053] The definitions of R2, R5, and R6 in the compound VII and compound VIII are the same as those of R2, R5, and R6 in the compound VI; the compound VII includes but is not limited to Fmoc-DOPA(Acetonide)-OMe, Phth-DOPA(Acetonide)-OMe, Cbz-DOPA(Acetonide)-OMe, Tfa-DOPA(Acetonide)-OMe, etc. The compound VIII includes but is not limited to Fmoc-DOPA(Acetonide)-OH, Phth-DOPA(Acetonide)-OH, Cbz-DOPA(Acetonide)-OH, Tfa-DOPA(Acetonide)-OH, etc.

[0054] ② One-pot synthesis of Tfa-DOPA-OMe;

[0055] One-pot synthesis of Tfa-DOPA-OMe uses levodopa as raw material, adopts SOCl2 / MeOH methylation to replace the CH3I / KHCO3 / DMF esterification reaction of the existing synthesis route, and then realizes a one-pot synthesis method through an ester amide exchange reaction with methyl trifluoroacetate, which is simple and efficient to protect the carboxyl group and the amino group; the specific steps include:

[0056] L-DOPA and anhydrous methanol (MeOH) were added to the reaction apparatus, argon was introduced, SOCl2 was slowly added dropwise under ice bath conditions, and stirring was continued overnight after the ice bath was removed; heating and stirring were performed, argon bubbling was turned on, the temperature was lowered, triethylamine and methyl trifluoroacetate were slowly added, and stirring was performed until the reaction was complete; after rotary evaporation and concentration, the pH of the solution was adjusted to 3-4, extraction was performed, and the obtained organic phase was washed with water, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, rotary evaporated, and vacuum dried to obtain Tfa-DOPA-OMe.

[0057] The reaction mechanism of the one-pot synthesis of Tfa-DOPA-OMe is as follows: first, L-DOPA is converted into methyl ester hydrochloride under the action of SOCl2 / MeOH; although methanol is a poor solvent for L-DOPA, it is a good solvent for the intermediate product methyl ester hydrochloride, so it can promote the completion of this step of the reaction; after the methylation is completed, the excess SOCl2 can be removed from the reaction system by heating to reflux in an oil bath and bubbling with argon; there are many schemes for the trifluoroacetylation of the amino group, and the ester-amide exchange reaction is more effective than the direct acylation with trifluoroacetic anhydride, as the former has mild reaction conditions and almost no racemization; in addition, since the reaction activity of methyl trifluoroacetate (Tfa-OMe) is slightly higher than that of ethyl ester, it is more suitable; among them, the amount of triethylamine is critical. If the amount is too small, the reaction will be relatively slow, and if the amount is too large, it will lead to waste and decomposition of the methyl ester. After screening, the most suitable molar ratio of triethylamine to L-DOPA is 4.

[0058] Furthermore, based on Tfa-DOPA-OMe, an acetonide-protected L-DOPA intermediate (Tfa-DOPA(Acetonide)-OMe) can be successfully prepared; and when the amino and carboxyl protections are completely removed and then coupled with the N-protecting group or only the methyl ester is selectively removed, other acetonide-protected L-DOPA reagents can be prepared, such as Boc-DOPA(Acetonide)-OH, Fmoc-DOPA(Acetonide)-OH, Phth-DOPA(Acetonide)-OH, Tfa-DOPA(Acetonide)-OH, etc.

[0059] Although the present invention claims an advantageous method in which the two-step reaction is carried out in one reactor, it is also claimed that according to this improvement, the one-pot process is simply changed to carrying out the two-step reaction claimed by the present invention in two vessels.

[0060] ③ Preparation of acetone-protected danshensu derivatives;

[0061] The preparation of acetone-protected danshensu derivatives based on dopa derivatives specifically includes:

[0062] The acetonide-protected L-dopa derivative is deaminated and reacted with nitrous acid in water or a mixture of water and an organic solvent under acid catalysis, and then hydrolyzed to generate an acetonide-protected L-danshensu derivative. Correspondingly, an acetonide-protected D-danshensu derivative is prepared using a dextrodopa derivative.

[0063] The preparation of acetone-protected danshensu derivatives based on danshensu or its derivatives specifically includes:

[0064] First, the carboxyl group of danshensu is protected as an ester or amide to improve its solubility in organic solvents, and the alcoholic hydroxyl group of danshensu is protected as an ester or ether, preferably an ester, to avoid the Oxa-Pictet-Spengler side reaction, so as to obtain a danshensu intermediate; for example, methyl rosmarinic acid, the α-hydroxyl group of the danshensu structure is protected as an ester by caffeic acid, and the carboxyl group is protected as a methyl ester; then, the danshensu intermediate is reacted with an acetonide cyclization reagent to achieve the acetonide protection of the catechol group of danshensu; finally, through selective hydrolysis, alcoholysis or aminolysis, an acetonide-protected danshensu derivative is obtained.

[0065] ④ Preparation of natural catechol compounds and non-natural catechol compounds;

[0066] Using acetone-protected danshensu and its esters as raw materials, natural catechol compounds such as rosmarinic acid, lithospermic acid, salvianolic acid, salicylic acid, Yunnaneic acids, SBA-C and globoidnanA are prepared through ester bond formation (including Mitsunobu configuration inversion ester bond formation reaction), amide bond formation or ether bond formation reaction, and non-natural catechol compounds formed with organic acids, amino acids and their derivatives, oligopeptides and polypeptides, alcohols, sugars, etc. are prepared.

[0067] Among them, in the structure of the reactant that undergoes ester, amide or ether bond formation reaction with acetonide-protected danshensu, if there is a catechol group, the catechol group is also protected by acetonide; if there is no catechol group but an isolated phenolic hydroxyl group is contained, the phenolic hydroxyl group should be appropriately protected, preferably with a protecting group in an acid-labile orthogonal system, including but not limited to MOM, EOM, Boc, and tBu. This ensures that when the acetonide protection is removed, other protecting groups that need to be removed are also removed, thereby reducing the difficulty of synthesis.

[0068] Finally, using medium concentration of TFA, HCl, HBr or TsOH as catalyst, under mild conditions, the acetone protection is removed to obtain the target catechol compound; the deprotection conditions do not destroy the ester bonds, glycosidic bonds, amide bonds, hydrazide bonds, ether bonds, and disulfide bonds that are desired to be retained but unstable in the structure of the intermediate product and the target product; preferably, a mixed solution of 60% TFA and DCM is added with 10 equivalents of water and 10 equivalents of triisopropylsilane (TIS); the yield of the target product is close to 100%, and the ester bond formed by the methyl ester and the α-hydroxyl of Danshensu is not destroyed. For example, the synthesis of the natural product SBA-C.

[0069] The second technical solution adopted by the present invention is: the application of a class of catechol derivatives, including the preparation of solid preparations and liquid preparations containing dopa oligopeptides based on the catechol derivatives.

[0070] (1) Dopa oligopeptide solid preparation (DOSF);

[0071] The solid preparation containing dopa oligopeptides includes the catechol derivative API-1. The category of API-1 is a derivative providing L-DOPA. API-1 includes but is not limited to one or more of L-DOPA, dopa esters, fatty acyl dopa, L-DOPA-containing oligopeptides (preferably dipeptides, tripeptides), L-DOPA-containing lipo-oligopeptides (preferably lipodipeptides), etc.

[0072] The solid preparation containing DOPA oligopeptide also includes other active ingredients and / or excipients (FE); other active ingredients include API-2 and / or API-3, the category of API-2 is DDCI (DOPA decarboxylase inhibitor), API-2 includes one or more of benserazide hydrochloride, CarbiDOPA, oligopeptides containing CarbiDOPA (preferably dipeptides, tripeptides), ester oligopeptides containing CarbiDOPA (preferably lipid dipeptides), etc.; the category of API-3 is other active pharmaceutical ingredients, and API-3 includes other anti-Parkinson's disease drugs, such as COMT inhibitors, MAO-B inhibitors, etc.

[0073] Excipients (FE) include ion regulators (FE-1), pH regulators (FE-2), thickeners / physical gelling agents (FE-3), antioxidants (FE-4), flavoring agents (FE-5), preservatives and antibiotics (FE-6), etc.; ion regulators include NaCl, pH regulators include citric acid salts, phosphate salts, acetic acid salts, phthalic acid salts, etc., thickeners / physical gelling agents include carboxymethyl cellulose salts, hyaluronic acid salts, polyacrylic acid salts, etc., antioxidants include isoascorbic acid, sodium sulfite, sodium bisulfite, sodium metabisulfite, sodium thiosulfate, vitamin C, vitamin E, etc., flavoring agents include aspartame, sucrose, stevioside, agar, sodium bicarbonate, pineapple essence, etc., preservatives and antibiotics include benzoic acid, methyl / ethyl parahydroxybenzoate, chlorhexidine acetate, etc.

[0074] Since the above-mentioned solid preparation containing DOPA oligopeptide does not contain water, the rate of degradation to produce ammonia and hydrazine during production, packaging, transportation and storage is very slow, and the rate of oxidation of the catechol group therein is also very slow, thus meeting the requirement for a longer shelf life of the drug; when used by patients, if it is used to replace liquid preparations such as Duopa, Sirio, ABBV-951, etc., a pre-prepared solvent (Pre-Prepared menstrua, PPM) can be added, and after shaking for 5-30 minutes, a clear, uniform, transparent liquid can be formed for use.

[0075] The solvent (PPM) is, for example, a pharmaceutical solvent or a prefabricated solution; the pharmaceutical solvent (PPM-1) is, for example, water for injection, physiological saline for injection or glucose solution for injection; the prefabricated solution is, for example, PPM-2, PPM-3 or PPM-4, PPM-2 includes, for example, water, 0.1-10% (mass percentage) carboxymethyl cellulose salt, preservative and antibiotic, or includes, for example, water, 0.1-10% (mass percentage) carboxymethyl cellulose salt, alkali, preservative and antibiotic, or 0.1-10% (mass percentage) carboxymethyl cellulose salt aqueous solution; PPM-3 includes, for example, water, 0.1-10% (mass percentage) hyaluronate, alkali, preservative and antibiotic, or includes, for example, 0.1-10% hyaluronate aqueous solution; PPM-4 includes, for example, water, 0.1-10% (mass percentage) polyacrylate, alkali, preservative and antibiotic.

[0076] (2) Liquid preparations containing dopa oligopeptides;

[0077] The liquid preparation containing DOPA oligopeptide includes DOPA-containing dipeptide and carbidopa dipeptide and flavor corrector, thereby forming an oral liquid preparation with pleasant taste (high patient compliance); the drug exists in the form of solution and is not easy to deteriorate or lose effectiveness in a short period of time.

[0078] Flavoring agents include sweeteners and / or aromatics.

[0079] Sweeteners are divided into two categories: natural sweeteners and synthetic sweeteners. Natural sweeteners include sucrose, monosaccharide syrup, stevioside, etc.; synthetic sweeteners include saccharin sodium, cyclamate, aspartame, etc.; other flavor enhancers (also called flavoring agents) that do not affect the efficacy of the medicine can also be added to prepare oral solutions with different special flavors, such as orange flavor, apple flavor, etc.; effervescent agents and syrups that interfere with the taste can also be added.

[0080] The third technical solution adopted by the present invention is: to provide an oral continuous or intermittent drug delivery device, including a cup body and a cup cover, which are detachably connected; the cup body is a container for holding liquid preparations; the cup cover is provided with a switch button, a battery slot, a micro peristaltic pump, a delivery tube, a quantitative tank and an output tube, the switch button is used to turn on or off the micro peristaltic pump, the battery slot is used to install batteries to power the micro peristaltic pump, the micro peristaltic pump is used to pump the liquid medicine in the cup body into the quantitative tank on time and in quantity through the delivery tube, the delivery tube is installed on the micro peristaltic pump, one end of the delivery tube is located at the bottom of the cup body, and the other end is located at the bottom of the quantitative tank, the output tube passes through the cup cover and extends into the quantitative tank for the patient to obtain the liquid medicine.

[0081] The fourth technical solution adopted by the present invention is: a preparation device for acetalization and ketone protection of catechol groups, comprising a reactor, a condensing device, an absorption tower, a gas pipeline and a liquid pipeline; the reactor is connected to the condensing device through a gas pipeline, the reactor is connected to the absorption tower through a liquid pipeline, the absorption tower is connected to the condensing device through a liquid pipeline, and a valve is provided on the liquid pipeline.

[0082] Among them, the reactor includes but is not limited to flasks and reactors; the gas pipeline includes but is not limited to glass tubes, plastic tubes, ceramic tubes, metal tubes, etc., preferably glass tubes with vacuum jackets; the condensation equipment includes but is not limited to glass or metal condensers, cold traps, etc., preferably glass condensers; the absorption tower includes but is not limited to glass tubes, ceramic tubes, metal tubes, etc., preferably stainless steel tubes: the absorbent includes but is not limited to one or a combination of any two or more of calcium chloride, molecular sieves, calcium oxide, caustic soda, magnesium sulfate, sodium sulfate, etc., preferably calcium chloride; the liquid pipeline includes but is not limited to metal tubes, plastic tubes, rubber tubes, glass tubes, etc., preferably polytetrafluoroethylene plastic tubes.

[0083] Preferably, in industrial production equipment, the condensing device and the absorption tower are connected in parallel, and in laboratory small-scale production equipment, the condensing device and the absorption tower are connected in a vertical manner with the upper and lower ends connected.

[0084] Preferably, the present invention also discloses an improved constant pressure dropping funnel, wherein the reactor is connected to the lower interface of the improved constant pressure dropping funnel through a liquid pipeline, and the condensation equipment is vertically connected to the upper interface of the improved constant pressure dropping funnel through a liquid pipeline.

[0085] The improved constant-pressure dropping funnel includes a dropping funnel body, a constant-pressure tube, a vacuum sleeve and a condensation sleeve. A regulating valve is arranged in the middle of the dropping funnel body, and the regulating valve divides the dropping funnel body into an upper part of the dropping funnel and a lower part of the dropping funnel. The constant-pressure tube connects the upper part of the dropping funnel and the lower part of the dropping funnel.

[0086] The improved Soxhlet extractor intermediate tube comprises a body, a constant pressure tube (with or without a vacuum sleeve), a siphon tube and a finger-shaped condenser tube socket or an outer condenser sleeve. The siphon tube is used to replace the regulating valve of the dropping funnel, which is convenient to use.

[0087] Beneficial effects of the above technical solution:

[0088] (1) In the preparation method of a class of catechol derivatives disclosed in the present invention, the preparation of levodopa or carbidopa derivatives utilizes inert gas / reducing agent / borate for combined protection, which effectively prevents the catechol derivatives from being oxidized. The method is synthesized in two steps and has the advantages of simple operation, high yield and purity of the product, etc.

[0089] (2) Compared with the prior art (CN110294789A), the synthesis scheme using propylene protection requires multiple steps, is too complicated, and has high cost. The present invention optimizes the method for synthesizing AA-L-DOPA type dipeptides, uses inert gas / reducing agent / borate combined protection, and develops a two-step synthesis method that is simple, has high yield, and high purity.

[0090] (3) The present invention extends to the synthesis of other N-modified L-DOPA complexes (catechol derivatives), including various amino protecting groups, such as N-Fmoc, N-Phth, N-Tfa, fatty acids, lipid dipeptides, etc.; it mainly solves the following problems: 1) It solves the problem that the product purity is not high and high-purity products need to be passed through a liquid column to be obtained, and an inert gas / reducing agent / borate combined protection is required; 2) It reduces the ratio of N-modified groups to L-DOPA, avoiding the Lossen rearrangement caused by -OSu activated ester and the generation of dipeptide / tripeptide impurities caused by acyl chloride.

[0091] (4) In the present invention, the DMP (reactant V)-TsOH (catalyst) system is used to protect the catechol group by acetonide; at the same time, the reactant V is added in batches, which not only avoids the generation of more by-products when the reactant V is excessive, but also avoids the problem of too low conversion rate of compound IV when the reactant V is insufficient. The first addition of reactant V: the molar amount of compound IV to the molar amount of reactant V is controlled in the range of 1:1 to 1:10, preferably 1:2; the second addition of reactant V: 0.5-3 molar equivalents of reactant V are added before the reaction is almost finished, preferably 1 molar equivalent.

[0092] (5) The present invention provides a simpler and more efficient method for preparing DOPA-containing oligopeptides (catechol derivatives). The prepared L-DOPA derivatives have high purity and are suitable for use as prodrugs in preparations or in scientific research. The present invention provides a more efficient and economical method for preparing DOPA-containing oligopeptide-type prodrugs, provides a synthetic method for preparing carbidopa oligopeptide-type prodrugs with good water solubility, and provides intermediates used in preparing DOPA-containing oligopeptides, especially acetone-protected intermediates.

[0093] (6) Compared with the prior art, the one-pot synthesis of Tfa-DOPA-OMe disclosed in the present invention greatly simplifies the reaction process by adjusting the protection order of the amino group and the carboxyl group of L-DOPA, first protecting the carboxyl group and then protecting the amino group, avoiding the use of high-boiling-point DMF as a solvent and not using the expensive and environmentally harmful methyl iodide reagent. That is, the present invention does not use the non-volatile DMF and the expensive reagent CH3I, is environmentally friendly, and the two-step reaction steps are combined into a one-pot reaction, which has the advantages of simplicity, high efficiency, reagent saving, and low cost.

[0094] (7) The present invention prepares a solid preparation containing DOPA oligopeptides based on catechol derivatives, which can be used to replace liquid preparations such as Duopa, Sirio, and ABBV-951. When used as a substitute for Duopa preparations, it mainly solves the following problems: 1) The aqueous liquid suspension preparation is unstable and easily decomposes to produce harmful components such as ammonia and hydrazine. Compared with Duopa preparations, the present invention prepares a solid preparation, and when used, water is injected into the preparation by a syringe or the like, mixed, and a solution is formed, thereby meeting the requirement for a longer shelf life of the drug; 2) L-DOPA and carbidopa in the active ingredients of Duopa are in the The solubility in the aqueous phase pH (5.8-6.8 range) is relatively low, 5 g / L and 5 mg / L respectively. In the present invention, levodopa is prepared into oligopeptides, dipeptides or tripeptides to improve the solubility (about 10 times, which can meet the demand), and carbidopa is also converted into a prodrug, and the solubility is further improved (also meeting the use requirements), but the present invention still uses soluble benserazide hydrochloride as a substitute for carbidopa; 3) The synthesis method for preparing the dipeptide or tripeptide of N-terminal levodopa is optimized, so that the synthesis cost of this type of prodrug is greatly reduced, and the cost can be borne by patients.

[0095] As an alternative drug to Sirio, Madopar and Sinime developed by Italian Cathy Pharmaceuticals, levodopa has poor water solubility, so the levodopa powder contained in Madopar and Sinime is prone to drug accumulation and dose dumping in the stomach. Sirio developed by Italian Cathy Pharmaceuticals uses dopa methyl ester (a levodopa prodrug) instead of levodopa, avoiding the above problems. However, dopa methyl ester is an organic amine and does not have an isoelectric point, so it can only exist in the form of hydrochloride, which is particularly hygroscopic and difficult to handle. Therefore, the present invention synthesizes dopa dipeptide / tripeptide type prodrugs, which are similar to amino acids in structure and have an isoelectric point, so they can form neutral inner salts, greatly reducing absorbability.

[0096] As an alternative drug to ABBV-951 preparation; ABBV-951 uses FoslevoDopa and foscarbidopa as prodrugs, and the preparation method is complicated and the cost is very high; compared with the ABBV-951 preparation, the present invention uses dopa oligopeptide prodrugs and carbidopa dipeptide prodrugs as substitutes to reduce costs.

[0097] (8) The "milk tea cup" type drug delivery device of the present invention can pump out an appropriate amount of medicine from the cup body into the quantitative pool on time, so that the patient can drink it once every 5 to 10 minutes, so that the amount of medicine each time the patient drinks is adapted to the interval time; the medicine is convenient to drink, tastes good, is non-invasive and painless, and can basically stabilize the blood drug concentration of Parkinson's patients without surgical fistula, braces, or skin perforation. The patient compliance is very high, and a good therapeutic effect can be achieved.

[0098] (9) The temperature of the reflux liquid in the inner cylinder of the Soxhlet extractor is relatively high, which is not conducive to the absorption of methanol. The inner cylinder is relatively small, and the absorbent dosage is insufficient, resulting in large fluctuations in the yield and difficulty in scaling up the reaction volume. In view of the above technical problems, the present invention designs an experimental instrument device A for mass production. The experimental device A-1 (including its absorbent holding part device A-1-1) is designed to ensure that the absorbent absorbs methanol under low temperature conditions, and gradient absorption is introduced, which has a good effect, slightly increases the yield, and is stable and highly repeatable. That is, the present invention adopts a more effective by-product removal device (the absorption device of the present invention) when performing acetal / ketone protection on the catechol group, thereby improving the conversion efficiency, increasing the product purity, and reducing the difficulty of product separation and purification. In addition, the present invention uses the absorption device A to successfully scale up the ketal reaction by multiple times, thereby achieving mass production.

[0099] (10) In the prior art CN111153885A, Fmoc-DOPA(Acetonide)-OH and the impurity Fmoc-DOPA(Acetonide)-OMe are mixed together and are difficult to remove. In view of the above technical problems, the present invention explores a better recrystallization method, using toluene and petroleum ether (n-hexane) for recrystallization, with a purity of more than 98.5%. That is, the present invention uses a TLN / HXN solvent system for recrystallization, which better separates the target product from its methyl ester, reduces the impurity content, and improves the purity of the target product VI. Moreover, the by-product Fmoc-DOPA(Acetonide)-OMe in CN111153885A affects the yield, and it is seriously wasted if thrown away. The present invention discloses a method for efficiently converting the by-product Fmoc-DOPA(Acetonide)-OMe to Fmoc-DOPA(Acetonide)-OH, which has a good effect and a total yield of more than 90%.

Due to the protective effect of the antioxidant Na2SO3, the solution remains colorless during the entire reaction process.

[0131] 1-9: Coupling reaction of hyaluronic acid and carbidopa methyl ester

[0132] A method similar to that of Example 1-8 was used, except that carbidopa methyl ester hydrochloride was used instead of H-DOPA-OMe hydrochloride; due to the protective effect of the antioxidant Na2SO3, the solution exhibited a light yellow color during the entire reaction process.

[0173] 1-12: Testing the solubility of the synthesized L-DOPA dipeptide and CarbiDOPA dipeptide

[0174] (1) Draw a standard straight line between absorbance and concentration: Take 50.2 mg of L-DOPA and dissolve it in 50 mL of 11 mmol / L citric acid-sodium citrate (pH 6.4) buffer solution. After multiple dilutions, measure the absorbance of the sample at 280 nm and draw a standard straight line between L-DOPA concentration and absorbance. The R value of the standard straight line is greater than 0.99.

[0175] (2) The effectiveness of the method was evaluated by measuring the solubility of L-DOPA: 100 mg of L-DOPA was added to 5 mL of 11 mmol / L citric acid-sodium citrate buffer solution (pH 6.4), vortexed, allowed to stand, and the supernatant was collected. The solubility was measured to be between 2.4 and 2.6 mmol / 100 mL, which is close to the value in the relevant literature (5 g / L or 2.5 mmol / 100 mL).

[0176] (3) Preparation of L-DOPA dipeptide or CarbiDOPA dipeptide test sample: Weigh about 0.1 mmol of L-DOPA dipeptide or CarbiDOPA dipeptide (in the form of HCl or TFA salt) solid, add it to 200-1200 μl of 2 M sodium citrate solution, vortex and centrifuge, take 100 μl of the supernatant, dilute it to 3 mL with water, measure its pH, and record it as the initial pH.

[0177] Re-prepare 100ul of the above supernatant, add 11mmol / L citric acid-sodium citrate buffer solution (pH 6.4) to dilute to an appropriate multiple, and calculate the solubility of the sample in the citric acid-sodium citrate solution at the initial pH value by measuring its absorbance; the actual solubility should be greater than the calculated value. The specific solubility of L-DOPA dipeptide or CarbiDOPA dipeptide at different pH values ​​is shown in Table 2, and the unit of solubility is mmol / 100mL.

[0178] Table 1 Solubility of L-DOPA dipeptide or CarbiDOPA dipeptide at different pH values

[0179]

[0180] As shown in Table 1, the solubility of L-DOPA dipeptide (H-AA-DOPA-OH) measured between pH 6.1 and 6.5 is greater than that of L-DOPA, and L-DOPA dipeptides all have good water solubility; among them, H-Gly-DOPA-OH has the best solubility, which is more than 10 times that of L-DOPA at pH 6.3; this is consistent with the conclusions in the early US3803120 and US4035507. At pH 6.1, the measured L-DOPA dipeptides can provide an L-DOPA drug loading of more than 10mmol / 100mL; at pH 6.3, L-DOPA modified with amino acids with smaller side chains and less non-polarity has an advantage and can also provide an L-DOPA drug loading of 10mmol / 100mL.

[0181] The measured CarbiDOPA dipeptide has better solubility than CarbiDOPA; under the measured pH conditions, CarbiDOPA dipeptide can provide a soluble drug loading of about 0.7mmol / 100mL. Therefore, the solid powder preparations made of L-DOPA dipeptide and CabiDOPA dipeptide can form a clear solution after adding water or an aqueous solution containing excipients.

[0251] 3-20: Screening of reaction conditions for highly selective deprotection of acetone

[0252] In order to explore highly selective deprotection conditions that can quickly and completely remove the acetone protection without destroying the unstable ester bond in the molecule, the present invention uses 3B-4 and 3B-16 as substrates, TFA, HCl, acetic acid as catalysts, DCM, THF, DIOX, H2O as solvents, and uses HPLC to monitor the effects of various deprotection conditions. Take about 20 mg of 3B-4 and use 2 ml of mixed solution (TFA / DCM / H2O / TIS, 50 / 40 / 5 / 5) for deprotection at room temperature: after 30 minutes of reaction, 3B-4 can no longer be detected, and the product 3B-3 accounts for about 90%; after 1 hour of reaction, 3B-3 accounts for about 87%. Use 2 ml of mixed solution (TFA / DCM / H2O / TIS, 25 / 65 / 5 / 5) for deprotection at room temperature; after 30 minutes of reaction, 3B-4 can no longer be detected, and 3B-3 accounts for 93%; after 1 hour of reaction, 63B-3 accounts for 91%. Deprotection was performed using 2 ml of a mixture (TFA / DCM / H2O / TIS, 50 / 40 / 5 / 5) in an ice bath. After 30 minutes of reaction, 3B-4 was no longer detected and 3B-3 accounted for 94%. It was finally found that the selective deprotection of acetone was best when 50-70% TFADCM solution was used in the presence of a trace amount of water. For example, the deprotection method used in Examples 3-19 and 3-18.

[0269] The powder, granules or tablets of the DOPA-containing dipeptide and carbidopa dipeptide are added with 0.01 g / mL sucrose aqueous solution (or 0.0001 g / mL aspartame aqueous solution) to prepare an oral liquid; the DOPA dipeptide in the oral liquid has good water solubility, is relatively stable, does not settle, and has no particles; and has a good taste, greatly improving the compliance of patients in taking medicine, thereby better controlling symptoms, stabilizing blood drug concentration, and improving the life of patients.

[0270] Example 5: Oral continuous or intermittent drug delivery device

[0271] like Figure 1 As shown, the oral continuous or intermittent drug delivery device is designed as a "milk tea cup", including a cup cover 100 and a cup body 200; the cup body and the cup cover are made of plastic or metal material or a combination of the two, so that the cup is light and easy to carry, not easy to break, relatively stable, easy to change the color and shape of the cup body, and easy to adapt to the storage and use of drugs.

[0272] The cup body shell 201 is a shell made of plastic cloth and metal. The space enclosed by the cup body shell becomes the cup body 200. The cup body 200 contains all the liquid medicine used within a period of time. By controlling the amount of the liquid medicine, it is ensured that the patient has taken it within the corresponding time and the medicine will not deteriorate or settle.

[0273] like Figure 2As shown, the cup cover 100 is provided with a switch button 101, a battery slot 102, a micro peristaltic pump 103, a delivery tube 104 (i.e., an oral liquid delivery tube), and an output tube 105 (i.e., an oral liquid output tube); a quantitative pool 108 is provided at the lower end of the cup cover. The quantitative pool 108 is relatively small, with a volume of about 25 ml. When the cup cover and the cup body are in a connected state, the quantitative pool 108 is located inside the cup body.

[0274] The switch button 101 is used to turn on or off the micro peristaltic pump; the battery slot 102 is used to install batteries, for example, 1.5V-3V batteries can be installed to power the micro peristaltic pump; the transmission tube 104 is installed on the micro peristaltic pump, one end of the transmission tube 104 is located at the bottom of the cup body, and the other end is located at the bottom of the quantitative tank. The micro peristaltic pump 103 is used to pump the liquid medicine in the cup body 200 into the quantitative tank 108 on time and in quantity through the transmission tube, so as to control the amount of medicine taken by the patient each time to be appropriate, and the cut-off threshold can be adjusted. If the patient does not drink for more than 10 minutes, the micro peristaltic pump will no longer pump the liquid medicine into the quantitative tank, which ensures that the amount of liquid medicine will not be too large when the patient takes it next time, causing movement complications (dyskinesia), etc.; the output tube 105 passes through the upper part of the cup cover and extends into the quantitative tank 108, which is used for the patient to absorb the liquid medicine from the quantitative tank, that is, the output tube inserted in the quantitative tank can be used as a straw for the patient to drink directly, and can also be transferred to other auxiliary drinking tubes.

[0275] Furthermore, in one embodiment, a speed regulating button 106 and a flow rate display screen 107 are also provided on the cup cover 100. The speed regulating button 106 is used to adjust the flow rate of the current medicine liquid pumped from the cup body into the quantitative pool, that is, the speed regulating button 106 is used to adjust the amount of medicine liquid delivered per minute according to the patient's needs; the flow rate display screen 107 displays the flow rate of the current medicine liquid pumped from the cup body into the quantitative pool.

[0276] like Figure 1 The cup body and the cup cover are detachably connected. For example, the cup body and the cup cover can be tightly combined by threads, or can be combined together by pressing, magnetic attraction or other suitable methods; rubber rings or silicone rings may or may not be used to help seal.

[0277] The oral continuous or intermittent drug delivery device disclosed in the present invention is similar to a water cup, which can pump out an appropriate amount of medicine from the cup body into a storage quantitative pool on time; the patient only needs to take the tablet Parkinson's drug orally in the early morning or at noon for 2 hours, and start using the oral liquid in Example 12 of the present invention when the blood drug concentration is about to drop. The oral liquid is administered through the oral continuous or intermittent drug delivery device of the present invention. The patient drinks the oral liquid once every 5 to 10 minutes, and the blood drug concentration can be stabilized at 2-5 micrograms / ml until the next drinking of the tablet drug is stopped; the oral liquid in Example 12 and the drug delivery method disclosed in the present invention can greatly reduce the pain of patients taking the medicine while stabilizing the blood drug concentration, and the appropriate sweetness ratio can enhance the patient's pleasure of taking the medicine, and the drug delivery device is light, convenient, and easy to carry. It can also be considered to be made into a cup shape such as a water bag, which can be well integrated into normal life, reduce the sense of shame of Parkinson's patients, and provide patients with a more comfortable and decent life and treatment.

[0278] Example 6: Preparation apparatus for acetal / ketone protection of catechol groups

[0279] 6-1: Preparation device A

[0280] A preparation device A for preparing a dopa oligopeptide intermediate, such as Figure 3 As shown, it includes a reactor, a condensing device, an absorption tower, a gas pipeline and a liquid pipeline; the reactor is connected to the condensing device through a gas pipeline, the reactor is connected to the absorption tower through a liquid pipeline, the absorption tower is connected to the condensing device through a liquid pipeline, and a valve is provided on the liquid pipeline.

[0281] Through azeotropic distillation, the volatile by-products in the reactor are carried by the carrier through the gas pipeline to the condensation equipment, and are effectively condensed by the condensation equipment to form a condensed liquid. The condensed liquid then enters the absorption tower (one or more) filled with absorbent through the liquid pipeline, and the by-products in the condensed liquid are completely removed through the gradient absorption of the absorption tower; finally, the condensed liquid after the by-products are removed returns to the reactor through the liquid pipeline, which maximizes the promotion of the reaction equilibrium to move in the forward direction.

[0282] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the preparation device also has a bubbler, and the bubbler is connected to the condensation device; and an inert gas pipeline is arranged on the reactor.

[0283] Among them, the reactor includes but is not limited to flasks and reactors; the gas pipeline includes but is not limited to glass tubes, plastic tubes, ceramic tubes, metal tubes, etc., preferably glass tubes with vacuum jackets; the condensing equipment includes but is not limited to glass or metal condensers, cold traps, etc., preferably glass condensers; the absorption tower includes but is not limited to glass tubes, ceramic tubes, metal tubes, etc., preferably stainless steel tubes; the absorbent includes but is not limited to one or a combination of any two or more of calcium chloride, molecular sieves, calcium oxide, caustic soda, magnesium sulfate, sodium sulfate, etc., preferably calcium chloride; the liquid pipeline includes but is not limited to metal tubes, plastic tubes, rubber tubes, glass tubes, etc., preferably polytetrafluoroethylene plastic tubes.

[0284] Further, in one embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown, the condensing equipment and the absorption tower are vertically connected to form preparation device A-1.

[0285] 6-2: Improved constant pressure dropping funnel A-1-1

[0286] The present invention also discloses a preparation device for preparing dopa oligopeptide intermediates, comprising a reactor, a condensing device, a liquid pipeline and an improved constant pressure dropping funnel (i.e., a device A-1-1 connecting an absorption tower and a gas pipeline); the reactor is connected to the lower end of the improved constant pressure dropping funnel through a liquid pipeline, and the condensing device is vertically connected to the upper end of the improved constant pressure dropping funnel through a liquid pipeline.

[0287] like Figure 5 As shown, the improved constant pressure dropping funnel A-1-1 includes a dropping funnel body 1, a first constant pressure tube 2, a vacuum sleeve 3 and a condensing sleeve 4, a regulating valve 11 is arranged in the middle of the dropping funnel body 1, the regulating valve 11 divides the dropping funnel body 1 into an upper part 12 of the dropping funnel and a lower part 13 of the dropping funnel, the first constant pressure tube 2 connects the upper part 12 of the dropping funnel and the lower part 13 of the dropping funnel; the upper part 12 of the dropping funnel is provided with a first upper interface 14 (i.e., an inner ground mouth 40 / 38), the lower part of the dropping funnel is provided with a first lower interface 15 (i.e., an outer ground mouth 24 / 29), a dropping nozzle is arranged in the lower interface, and the dropping nozzle is connected with the upper part of the dropping funnel; a sand core plate 5 is arranged at the lower end of the body of the upper part 12 of the dropping funnel, and the sand core plate is, for example, a sand core plate G3; the sand core plate provides support for the solid absorbent added into the improved constant pressure dropping funnel, and can ensure that only condensed liquid, but no solid absorbent, flows into the reactor.

[0288] The vacuum jacket 3 is wrapped around the outside of the first constant pressure tube 2 to ensure the smooth passage of the high-temperature distillation gas; and the inner diameter of the constant pressure tube (i.e., the gas pipeline) is larger than that of a conventional constant pressure dropping funnel, and the inner diameter of the constant pressure tube (i.e., the gas pipeline, the steam riser) is, for example, 12 mm; the outer diameter of the vacuum jacket is, for example, 20 mm.

[0289] The condensation sleeve 4 is set on the upper part of the dropping funnel body 1, and the height of the condensation sleeve is preferably half of the height of the upper part of the dropping funnel body. The condensation sleeve 4 ensures that the absorbent works at a lower temperature, and the absorption efficiency and capacity are improved; the coolant inlet joint 41 and the outlet joint 42 of the condensation sleeve are both 8mm pagoda joints; and by controlling the regulating valve 11, the height of the condensate retained on the sand core plate 5 can be selected to adjust the contact time between the condensate and the absorbent; the upper interface in the device A-1-1 of the present invention is wide, which is convenient for taking and placing the absorbent; the upper interface is connected to the condensation equipment (such as a glass condenser); the lower interface matches the reactor interface, which is the outlet of the distilled gas and the inlet of the condensed liquid returning to the reactor. The improved constant pressure dropping funnel A-1-1 is mainly made of glass, and only the regulating valve part adopts a polytetrafluoroethylene stopcock, and its volume is, for example, 250ml; the improved constant pressure dropping funnel A-1-1 disclosed in the present invention combines the advantages of a constant pressure dropping funnel, a Soxhlet extractor, and a condenser.

[0290] Through azeotropic distillation, the volatile by-products in the reactor are carried by the carrying agent through the liquid pipeline to the improved constant pressure dropping funnel A-1-1. After the volatile by-product gas enters the lower part of the dropping funnel, it enters the upper part of the dropping funnel through the constant pressure tube, and then passes through the upper interface of the upper part of the dropping funnel and enters the condensation equipment through the liquid pipeline. After the condensation equipment effectively condenses, a condensed liquid is formed. The condensed liquid then passes through the liquid pipeline through the upper interface into the upper part of the dropping funnel. The condensed liquid passes through the sand core plate on the upper part of the dropping funnel to completely remove the by-products in the condensed liquid. Finally, the condensed liquid after the by-products are removed flows into the lower part of the dropping funnel, enters the liquid pipeline through the lower interface and returns to the reactor.

[0291] 6-3: Improved Soxhlet extractor intermediate tube A-1-2

[0292] The present invention also discloses a preparation device for preparing dopa oligopeptide intermediates, comprising a reactor, a condensing device, a liquid pipeline and an improved Soxhlet extractor intermediate tube A-1-2; the reactor is connected to the lower end of the improved Soxhlet extractor intermediate tube through a liquid pipeline, and the condensing device is vertically connected to the upper end of the improved Soxhlet extractor intermediate tube through a liquid pipeline.

[0293] like Figure 6As shown, the improved Soxhlet extractor intermediate tube comprises a second lower interface 2.1 (i.e., a Soxhlet extractor lower ground mouth, generally an outer ground mouth connected to a reaction flask), a second constant pressure tube 2.2 (i.e., a gas flow tube), a first glass tube sealed bottom 2.3, a first glass tube frosted bottom 2.4, a Soxhlet extractor body 2.5, a first siphon 2.6, a side ground mouth 2.7 (generally an inner ground mouth, connected to a finger-shaped condenser) and a second upper interface 2.8 (i.e., an upper ground mouth, which is generally an inner ground mouth, connected to a condenser); the first glass tube sealed bottom 2.3 divides the Soxhlet extractor body 2.5 into an upper part of the Soxhlet extractor body and a lower part of the Soxhlet extractor body, and the upper end of the upper part of the Soxhlet extractor body is provided with a second upper interface 2.8, and the second upper interface 2.8 is connected to the first glass tube. A side ground mouth 2.7 is arranged between the closed bottom 2.3 of the tube; the second constant pressure tube 2.2 connects the upper part of the Soxhlet extractor body and the lower part of the Soxhlet extractor body, the upper end of the second constant pressure tube 2.2 is located on the opposite side between the side ground mouth 2.7 and the second upper interface 2.8, and the lower end is located between the first glass tube closed bottom 2.3 and the second lower interface 2.1; the lower end of the upper part of the Soxhlet extractor body is provided with a first glass tube frosted bottom 2.4; the first siphon tube 2.6 connects the upper part of the Soxhlet extractor body and the lower part of the Soxhlet extractor body, the upper end of the first siphon tube 2.6 is located between the first glass tube closed bottom 2.3 and the first glass tube frosted bottom 2.4, and the lower end is located between the first glass tube closed bottom 2.3 and the lower end of the second constant pressure tube 2.2.

[0294] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the improved Soxhlet extractor intermediate tube further comprises a vacuum jacket 2.9, and the vacuum jacket 2.9 is wrapped around the outside of the second constant pressure tube 2.2.

[0295] The Soxhlet extractor is very suitable for reusing the refluxed solvent to extract natural products. If an absorbent (such as CaCl2) is placed in the sample tube, the Soxhlet extractor is also used to absorb and remove volatile by-products produced in the reaction. However, it has four disadvantages: the sample tube is small and can hold less absorbent; the refluxed solvent temperature is high, which reduces the adsorption capacity of the absorbent; the siphon is high and occupies more liquid; all immersion absorption does not form an absorption gradient.

[0296] The present invention transforms the middle tube of the Soxhlet extractor to avoid the above disadvantages. Firstly, a sample tube is not used, and a frosted sheet is added to the bottom of the middle tube, so that the entire middle tube is used to hold the absorbent, thereby increasing the volume. Secondly, a ground opening is added to the side of the middle tube for inserting a finger-shaped condenser tube, which effectively reduces the stability of the absorption area and ensures the absorption efficiency and absorption capacity of the absorbent. Thirdly, the height of the siphon tube is appropriately lowered, the volume of the solvent retained in the middle tube is reduced, and the reaction liquid in the reaction flask is kept in an appropriate amount. Fourthly, by appropriately lowering the height of the siphon tube, the absorbent in the middle tube absorbs the by-products to be removed in a gradient manner, the absorbent above the height of the siphon tube absorbs the reflux liquid containing the by-products with a high concentration in a leaching manner, and the absorbent below the height of the siphon tube absorbs the reflux liquid containing the by-products with a lower concentration in a soaking manner.

The upper and lower parts of the tube body 310 are connected by gas flow through the third constant pressure tube 308, and the steam from the lower part of the middle tube of the Soxhlet extractor is introduced into the upper part, and the gas is converted into liquid by the condensation device connected to the upper part of the Soxhlet extractor; the upper and lower parts are connected by liquid through the second siphon tube 306, and the upper part of the second glass tube frosted bottom 305 (such as a sand core plate) above the closed bottom 309 is equipped with an adsorbent (such as calcium chloride), and the water and methanol in the condensate are selectively absorbed by the adsorbent here, and then the condensate is filtered through the second glass tube frosted bottom 305, and refluxed to the reactor connected to the third lower interface 307 of the tube body 310 through the second siphon tube 306.

[0300] A glass closed cooling jacket 302 is provided on the outer side of the lower end of the upper part of the tube body 310, and its height accounts for 40-100% of the upper part of the tube body 310; the coolant inlet 304 below the cooling jacket 302 is connected to the liquid outlet of the circulating cooling pump, and the coolant outlet 303 above the cooling jacket is connected to the liquid inlet of the circulating cooling pump; the closed cooling jacket 302 ensures that the absorbent in the intermediate tube body 310 of the Soxhlet extractor works at a lower temperature, thereby improving the absorption efficiency and absorption amount of water and methanol.
