Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of chemical pharmacy, in particular to a selegiline hydrochloride ring-opening impurity and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Selegiline hydrochloride, chemically known as (R)-N,α-dimethyl-N-(2-propynyl)phenylethylamine hydrochloride, is an irreversible selective inhibitor of monoamine oxidase type B that effectively inhibits the degradation of dopamine. It was approved for marketing by the US FDA in 1989 and is clinically used to treat Parkinson's disease.

[0003] There are many literature reports on the synthesis of selegiline hydrochloride. The method disclosed in the prior art is to prepare selegiline hydrochloride by first replacing and then splitting the natural product methamphetamine or first splitting and then replacing. The synthesis route is shown in Figure 1 .

[0004] Literature reports and compound patent routes have high yields and stable processes, but the starting material or intermediate uses (-)-R-methamphetamine, which is the enantiomer of methamphetamine (+)-S-methamphetamine. Although (-)-R-methamphetamine is not considered to be addictive and can even be used to treat cardiovascular diseases, it is extremely difficult to source and obtain. In the existing technology, it is mainly synthesized through N-methylation of amphetamine (amphetamine), and the source and acquisition of amphetamine are also extremely difficult. Therefore, it is very difficult for companies to obtain a production license for selegiline hydrochloride.

[0005] The synthesis methods of selegiline reported in recent years at home and abroad mostly involve dangerous reactions such as azidation and Grignard reaction. The reaction routes are too long and flammable and explosive lithium aluminum tetrahydride, sodium hydride, etc. are used. Low temperature conditions are used and there is no cost advantage, so industrial production cannot be achieved.

[0006] The invention with application number 201811569604.2 and titled "Method for preparing selegiline hydrochloride" discloses a new method for synthesizing selegiline hydrochloride. The method uses the cheap and readily available chiral source compound (S)-2-benzyl-N,N-dimethylaziridine-1-sulfonamide (cobicistat intermediate) as a raw material, and obtains selegiline hydrochloride through sodium borohydride ring opening, propargylation, deprotection, and amination reduction. The conversion rate of each step is about 90%, and the post-treatment only requires simple operations such as recrystallization and salt formation, which is very suitable for industrial production. For the synthesis route, see Figure 2 .

[0007] Impurity research is an important part of drug quality research and one of the key factors in drug quality assurance. As a pharmaceutical industry, it is very necessary to strictly control the impurity content in products. Research on material impurities helps optimize the synthesis process and quality control of drugs. In order to improve the safety of clinical drug use, it is necessary to conduct detailed research and control on drug process impurities and degradation impurities during storage.

[0008] The inventors found in the process of studying selegiline hydrochloride that the starting material BDS inevitably produces a ring-opening isomer impurity (Compound 1) during the ring-opening step due to stereoelectronic effects and steric hindrance effects. The chemical structure is It is an important impurity in the intermediate SG-I, accounting for about 1%, and its content hardly changes in the post-ring opening treatment step; in the propargylation step, the ring-opening isomer impurity (compound 1) will be converted into a new impurity (compound 2), the chemical structure of which is It is an important impurity in the intermediate SG-II; compound 2 will further derive a new impurity (compound 3) in the deprotection step, and the chemical structure is It is an important impurity in the intermediate SG-III.

[0009] The synthesis of these three open-ring impurities (Compound 1, Compound 2, Compound 3) provides a reference and basis for the study of the impurity spectrum of selegiline hydrochloride raw materials and intermediates and the establishment of quality standards. However, there is currently no literature report on the preparation method of selegiline hydrochloride open-ring impurities (Compound 1, Compound 2, Compound 3). Summary of the invention
