Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the preparation of a 4-(dipropylsulfamoyl)-N,N-dipropylbenzamide impurity reference substance, in particular to a method for purifying probenecid (sodium) impurity 4-(dipropylsulfamoyl)-N,N-dipropylbenzamide, and the obtained impurity reference substance is used for the detection and quality control of probenecid sodium raw materials and preparations. Background Art
[0002] Probenecid is a white crystalline powder and is an anti-gout drug and an adjuvant drug for antibiotic treatment. Probenecid sodium is its sodium salt, a white crystalline powder, odorless, slightly bitter, and very soluble in water. In addition to its role in treating chronic gout, probenecid can also significantly optimize the pharmacokinetic properties of various β-lactam antibiotics. Currently, a compound preparation consisting of probenecid and ampicillin has been used clinically. Combined use of probenecid (sodium) and various β-lactam antibiotics [1] , which can not only significantly reduce the dosage of corresponding antibiotics, thereby reducing the incidence of adverse reactions to antibiotics, but also increase the compliance of antibiotic treatment and reduce the selection of drug-resistant bacteria. The development of the combined use of probenecid (sodium) and various β-lactam antibiotics has extremely important clinical value and also has a very positive social significance for reducing the use of antibiotics and alleviating bacterial resistance.
[0003] Reference standards (also called reference substances) refer to standard substances used for drug identification, inspection and content determination. They are special measuring tools for testing drug quality and have a direct impact on the accuracy and reproducibility of test results. For most chemical drugs, reference standards are an integral part of the drug quality control system and must be used throughout the life cycle of the drug. The quality standards (such as purity, content, residual solvents, inorganic impurities, stability, etc.) and technical requirements of reference substances must meet the relevant specifications for drug development and registration. [2] As an impurity reference substance, the purity is generally required to be no less than 98% and the content is no less than 95%. Referring to the "9102 Guidelines for the Analysis of Impurities in Pharmaceuticals" in the "Chinese Pharmacopoeia" (2020 Edition, Part IV), the ICH Guidelines for Impurities in New APIs (Q3A) and Impurities in New Preparations (Q3B), the research and control of impurities in drugs, especially innovative drugs, is one of the important contents of pharmaceutical research. Any impurities in drugs will affect the effectiveness, safety and quality controllability of drugs; all impurities should be quantitatively and qualitatively analyzed, and safety limits should be established to ensure drug safety.
[0004] There are very few impurities of probenecid (sodium) included in the pharmacopoeias of various countries. Only the European Pharmacopoeia (EP / BP) has controls on specific impurities. The impurity control limits of other pharmacopoeias are very loose, among which EP / BP impurity C, namely 4-(dipropylaminosulfonyl)-N, N-dipropylbenzamide, is shown in the following table:
[0005] Probenecid impurities are included in the pharmacopoeias of various countries
