Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the pharmaceutical field, and in particular to a brivaracetam intermediate and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Brivaracetam (English name: brivaracetam, trade name: ), chemical name is (S)-2-((R)-2-oxo-4-propylpyrrolidin-1-yl)butanamide, a 2-pyrrolidone derivative, and its structural formula is as follows:

[0003]

[0004] Brivaracetam is a novel high-affinity ligand for synaptic vesicle protein 2A (SV2A). It can be used clinically as an adjuvant treatment for adult patients with refractory partial-onset epilepsy with or without secondary systemic seizures, and can also be used to treat childhood epilepsy.

[0005] The brivaracetam side chain (see compound BVT04) is a key intermediate in the synthesis of brivaracetam. The difficulty of preparing the side chain, the mildness of the reaction, the cost, the yield, the purity, the length of the reaction route, the ease of obtaining raw materials, etc. directly affect the synthesis efficiency of brivaracetam.

[0006]

[0007] Organic Process Research & Development 2016, 20, 1566-1575 and Chinese patent CN109266630 reported the synthesis of the above side chain by esterase splitting. The substrate raw material diethyl propylmalonate used in this method is not easy to obtain, and tert-butyl bromoacetate is expensive, resulting in high production costs. CN109266630 also discloses an alkylation step using methyl valerate and tert-butyl bromoacetate, but the reaction needs to be carried out under ultra-low temperature conditions (-78°C), requiring special reaction equipment.

[0008] Patent CN109535107 adopts a chiral auxiliary method to directly introduce a chiral center to prepare the above-mentioned side chain, thereby avoiding chiral separation. However, the chiral auxiliary used is expensive, and the alkylation reaction needs to be carried out at ultra-low temperature conditions (-78°C) when introducing chirality, requiring special reaction equipment.

[0009] Patent applications CN106279074A, WO2016191435A1, and CN105646319A disclose the following synthetic routes:

[0010]

[0011] This route uses cheap chiral epichlorohydrin to react with diethyl malonate to form a ring, then reacts with ethyl Grignard reagent to open the ring to construct a chiral center, and then hydrolyzes and decarboxylates to close the ring to obtain the buvacetam side chain. This method has a short reaction step, but the Grignard reagent is expensive, and due to the high reactivity of the Grignard reagent, the reaction system is complicated and the product purification is difficult, resulting in poor quality of the final product.

[0012] Therefore, there is still an urgent need for a method for preparing the side chain of brivaracetam with mild reaction, simple operation, low cost, high yield, high purity, short reaction route and readily available raw materials. Summary of the invention
