Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of pharmaceutical synthesis, and particularly relates to a crystal form of ipraglimine hydrochloride and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] The chemical name of Igligrimine hydrochloride is: (6R)-N 2 ,N 2 ,6-trimethyl-3,6-dihydro-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diamine hydrochloride, the structural formula is The original manufacturer is Sumitomo Pharma Co., Ltd. of Japan. It was approved for marketing in Japan in June 2021 under the trade name: Twymeeg. This preparation targets mitochondrial dysfunction and is a new oral hypoglycemic drug with a dual mechanism of action. It lowers blood sugar through pancreatic and extra-pancreatic effects. It can be used as a monotherapy or as an add-on therapy to other hypoglycemic therapies for the treatment of type 2 diabetes.
[0003] Ipagliflozin hydrochloride tablets can simultaneously play a role in the three key organs that maintain glucose balance in the human body, including the liver, muscles, and pancreas. Its special mechanism of action makes it effective in preventing endothelial and diastolic dysfunction, and has some protective effects on microvascular and macrovascular defects that may be caused by diabetes. In addition, it also has potential protective capabilities for the survival and functional realization of β-cells.
[0004] To exert its efficacy, drugs need to go through a series of processes such as release, penetration and absorption, and each stage affects the optimal efficacy of the drug to varying degrees. Among them, the dissolution of oral tablets plays an important role in drug efficacy, and the physical and chemical properties of the API itself, such as crystal form, particle size, solubility, stability, etc., have a great contribution to dissolution. To improve the dissolution of preparations, solubility is an important link, which is further reflected in the fact that the crystal form of the API has a great influence on solubility. It is well known in the pharmaceutical field that the polymorphic form of the drug not only determines the dissolution of the drug, but also has a profound impact on the fluidity, stability, compressibility and ease of handling during the preparation process. Therefore, the API used in the preparation needs to select a crystal form with good solubility and excellent stability to prevent it from changing crystals during the preparation process, storage, and use, which affects the efficacy.
[0005] Prior art WO2010109015A1 discloses a method for preparing a single-configuration ipraglimine from an ipraglimine racemate by a dominant crystallization method, wherein the content of the single-configuration ipraglimine hydrochloride is the highest (95.46%) when the racemic hydrochloride is dissolved and crystallized for 30 minutes. As the crystallization time increases, the single-configuration product decreases. After crystallization for 120 minutes, the content of the single-configuration product is only 70.36%. The single-configuration ipraglimine hydrochloride product obtained by this method has a high content of isomeric impurities and poor stability, and is not suitable for development as a drug.

[0058] Comparative Example 2
[0059] Reference substance 2 was prepared with reference to the prior art CN118955413A, and the specific process was as follows:
[0060] Weigh 13.90g of N,N-dimethyl-2,4-diamino-1,3,5-triazine, 3.30g of formaldehyde, catalyst (0.34g of p-toluenesulfonic acid and 0.98g of dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid), and 4.01g of hydrochloric acid, put into a beaker containing 34.75g of isobutanol, heat to 100℃±1℃, reflux reaction for 11h, the material gradually clarifies from a suspended state, the end point is a clear state, the reaction is completed, and a clear solution is obtained; then the clear solution is distilled to distill out 0.5 times of isobutanol, cool to 15℃±1℃ for solid-liquid separation, then rinse with 0.5 times of isobutanol, and dry to obtain crude imeglimine hydrochloride. Finally, the crude imeglimine hydrochloride is dissolved in an ethanol solution 6 times its mass, heated to 57℃±1℃, stirred, cooled to room temperature, the solid is filtered, and washed with an ethanol solution, and the solid is dried to obtain a reference substance. X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) results are shown in Figure 8 .
[0061] Characterization:
[0062] The X-ray powder diffraction patterns of the products of Examples 1-5 are as follows: Figure 1 , 4 -7. Among them, characteristic peaks appear at 2θ values of 11.7o, 14.8o, 16.8o, 17.7o, 18.8o, 20.5o, 23.1o, 23.4o, 24.9o, 25.5o, 26.5o, 26.9o, 29.4 and 32.7o±0.2o.
[0063] Combining the X-ray powder diffraction pattern of the reference substance in Comparative Example 1 (the single-configuration product in figure 2 of WO2010109015A1), it can be seen that the X-ray powder diffraction of the reference substance obtained by the prior method has no characteristic peaks at 2θ values of 18.8°, 23.1°, and 23.4°. It can be seen that the crystalline product obtained in the embodiment of the present invention is obviously different from the product obtained by the prior method.
[0064] Combined with the X-ray powder diffraction pattern of the reference substance in Comparative Example 2 ( Figure 8 ) It can be seen that the reference product 2 has only very weak signal peaks at 2θ values of 17.7o and 20.5o, which are even negligible, and the peak intensity value at 2θ value of 25.5o is significantly different from that of the embodiment of the present invention. It can be seen that the crystals obtained in the embodiment of the present invention are significantly different from the reference product 2.
[0065] The DSC diagram of the iplagetamine hydrochloride crystal obtained in Example 1 is as follows: Figure 2 Differential thermal analysis shows an endothermic peak at 253.13-255.26°C, that is, the melting point of the crystal form is 253-255°C.
[0066] The TGA diagram of the iplagetamine hydrochloride crystal obtained in Example 1 is as follows: Figure 3 Thermogravimetric analysis shows that the weight loss is only 0.2858% when heated to 105°C.
[0067] Example 7 Stability Determination
[0068] In order to investigate the stability of the samples of the present invention and the control samples, the API products obtained in Example 5 and Comparative Example 1 were selected for accelerated test research to obtain stability data. The storage conditions were a temperature of 40°C ± 2°C and a relative humidity of 75% RH ± 5% RH. The key quality attributes were tested at 0, 3, and 6 months, respectively. The specific experimental results are shown in Tables 1 and 2:
[0069] Table 1 Stability data of products prepared in Example 5
[0070]
[0071] It can be seen from Table 1 that the main component proportion of the untreated ipraglimin hydrochloride related substances is less than 99.5%, the impurity content is high, and the chiral purity is poor. Due to the high impurity content, the content is low and it cannot be developed into a marketed drug; while the product of the embodiment of the present invention has excellent stability, the product properties and impurity levels have not changed, the main component proportion is always greater than 99.5%, and the chiral purity has not changed, indicating that racemization has not occurred during the storage process, the main component content is in the ideal numerical range, and the water content is consistent with the TGA test of 0.2858%, indicating that the product is not hygroscopic under the experimental conditions and meets the requirements for development into a drug.
[0072] Table 2 Comparative Example 1 Preparation of Reference Stability Data
[0073]
[0074] As shown in Table 2, during the stability study, the properties of the reference product did not change, but the related substances and their contents decreased to varying degrees, and the chiral purity changed greatly, which may be due to the racemization caused by the sample's moisture absorption and weight gain. The reference product was no longer suitable for drug development during the stability study.
[0075] Example 8 Solubility Determination
[0076] Prepare several round-bottom flasks, each equipped with a magnetic stirrer. At room temperature, take 1 g of ipraglimine hydrochloride from Example 5, add the solvent dropwise with a graduated constant dropper under stirring until the solid is completely dissolved by visual observation. The solubility is calculated according to the total amount of solvent added. The solubility data are shown in Table 3:
[0077] Table 3
[0078] Solvents Solubility (mg / mL) water 223 Methanol 222 Anhydrous ethanol 133 96% ethanol 185 Acetonitrile 9
[0079] As can be seen from Table 3, the solubility of ipraglitamine hydrochloride of the present invention is good, and meets the requirements for development into corresponding preparations.
