Description

[0002] The original developer of Iomeprol is the Italian company Bracco. Currently, except for Italian companies, no domestic pharmaceutical companies have launched this drug, but many companies are researching and preparing raw materials. At present, there are relatively few reports in the literature on the preparation of Iomeprol I related impurities.

[0003] Most of the synthetic routes of iodine meprol on the market are similar to those reported in Korean patent CN113166040A:

[0004]

[0005] In the above route, iodine prochloride and chloroacetyl chloride (CAC) undergo chloroacetylation reaction, and after the reaction, hydrolyze with sodium hydroxide to generate iodine prochloride ester hydrolyzate; iodine prochloride ester hydrolyzate and sodium acetate undergo chlorine hydrolysis reaction to generate iodine prochloride hydrolyzate; iodine prochloride hydrolyzate reacts with dimethyl sulfate under alkaline conditions to generate iodine prochloride. Because alkaline conditions exist in the above reaction processes, under alkaline conditions, the acetyl hydroxyl group and the iodine on the triiodobenzene ring mother core undergo etherification reaction to generate impurity I.
