Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of phospholipid synthesis, in particular to a method for preparing distearoylphosphatidylcholine. Background Art
[0002] Phospholipids are a class of lipids containing phosphoric acid, which are widely present in various biological membrane structures. The polar end containing the phosphate group in the phospholipid structure is hydrophilic, and the two longer hydrocarbon chain non-polar ends are lipophilic. This unique amphiphilic structure makes phospholipids tend to be oriented in water, and spontaneously form a double-layer membrane structure driven by hydrophobic effects, becoming the skeleton of biological membranes and regulating the transport of substances and signal transmission inside and outside cells. Phospholipids not only play a key role in living organisms, but are also widely used in the fields of medicine, food and cosmetics, especially in liposome technology. However, because natural phospholipid molecules contain unsaturated fatty acid chains, they are susceptible to oxidation, resulting in a short life and poor stability of liposome materials, limiting their application in certain high-demand pharmaceutical preparations.
[0003] Diethyl phosphatidylcholine (DSPC) is an important class of synthetic phospholipids with two stearic acid groups and one phosphatidylcholine head group. Due to its strong antioxidant capacity and good physical stability, DSPC is widely used in the preparation of liposomes, nano drug carriers and vaccine preparations, especially in long-acting release and targeted drug delivery systems.
[0004] The common method for preparing distearoylphosphatidylcholine in the prior art has multiple, "Total Synthesis of Phosphatidylcholine, Phosphatidylethanolamine and Phosphatidylglycerol" (Chen Guangyou, Northwest University, Master's Degree Thesis, 2006) discloses the synthetic method of distearoylphosphatidylcholine, using glycerol as raw material, successively through reduction, chlorination, condensation, dihydroxyl and monohydroxyl protection and deprotection, acylation, phosphorylation, head group protection, coupling and deprotection steps, prepare distearoylphosphatidylcholine. The method relates to multiple protection and deprotection steps, which not only increases the complexity of the reaction, but also prolongs the reaction time, and may cause the reduction of product yield. In addition, the required multiple reagents and separation and purification steps make the overall cost of the reaction higher, which is unfavorable for industrialized production.
[0005] Ichihara et al. (Chem.Phys.Lipids, 2005,137,94-99) load glycerylphosphatidylcholine on diatomite, then suspend the obtained solid mixture in a suitable organic solvent, add fatty acid and condensing agent, and carry out esterification to obtain difatty acylphosphatidylcholine. This method avoids the drawback of increasing the solubility of glycerylphosphatidylcholine with highly polluted and highly toxic cadmium chloride traditionally. However, when using glass instruments to prepare diatomite-loaded glycerylphosphatidylcholine, the sample easily adheres to the container wall. To avoid the occurrence of this situation, it is necessary to use expensive polytetrafluoroethylene containers, which increases production costs. In addition, the method also relates to the use of solid-phase loading and organic solvents, and the process is complicated and difficult for large-scale production.
[0006] Chinese patent document CN110563758A discloses a method for preparing difatty acylphosphatidylcholine by solid phase reaction, wherein fatty acid is dissolved in an organic solvent, a condensation coupling agent is added, the temperature is raised and refluxed, active esters of fatty acid are prepared, solid phase (preferably alumina) is added to load glycerol phosphatidylcholine, and difatty acylphosphatidylcholine is prepared by continuous reflux; high-activity solid adsorbent is recovered by filtration, mother liquor is desolventized, crude product is pulped with organic solvent and recrystallized to obtain high-purity difatty acylphosphatidylcholine. The yield of this method is only 67%, and the lower yield means that a large amount of raw materials are wasted, which is not conducive to large-scale production. In addition, the method involves multi-step reflux and the use of organic solvents, and the process is relatively complicated and the operation is difficult.
[0007] Chinese patent document CN114014889A discloses a method for synthesizing phosphatidylcholine using a solid phase carrier, in which the phosphatidylcholine is first melted and then uniformly adsorbed with activated carbon, and then acylated with fatty acid chloride, and the resulting product is filtered and recrystallized to obtain high-purity phosphatidylcholine. Activated carbon is used as a solid phase carrier in this method, but the process involves the melting and uniform adsorption of phosphatidylcholine, which may cause fluctuations in product purity. Although the yield is high (85%), the use of activated carbon and the subsequent recrystallization step still increase the complexity and cost of production. In addition, the regeneration and treatment of activated carbon may also bring additional environmental and economic costs.
[0008] In the method of the document "Wang Yubing, Zhu Shanliang, Liu Fei / Synthesis of 1,2-distearoylphosphatidylcholine (2016, 43 (22), 73-74)", stearic acid is used as a raw material to prepare stearic anhydride through condensation of N, N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide; lecithin is used as a raw material, and hydrolyzed under the action of tetrabutylammonium hydroxide to obtain glycerophosphatidylcholine, and glycerophosphatidylcholine is then synthesized with stearic anhydride under the catalysis of triethylamine to synthesize 1,2-distearoylphosphatidylcholine. This method requires that stearic acid be first prepared as stearic anhydride, which increases the complexity and time cost of the synthesis process. In addition, stearic anhydride itself may not be stable enough and is easily hydrolyzed or degraded, affecting the subsequent reaction efficiency with glycerophosphatidylcholine. In addition, tetrabutylammonium hydroxide is a relatively strong base, which easily leads to increased corrosiveness of the reaction system, requires higher reactor materials, and may have an adverse effect on the environment. In addition, since the acylation reaction is difficult to complete, the actual yield may be lower than expected, especially when the scale is scaled up.
[0009] In summary, although the preparation methods of distearoylphosphatidylcholine in the prior art have their own advantages, they generally have problems such as complex operation, high cost, low yield, and harsh reaction conditions, and are difficult to meet the requirements of large-scale industrial production.
