[0027] The above reaction is carried out at 40°C to reflux, and in this example, the reaction is carried out at 40°C.
[0028] The minimum amount of sulfuric acid solution can completely dissolve ezetimibe sulfate. The amount of sulfuric acid solution can be as high as 20 times that of ezetimibe sulfate. However, the post-processing operation is more complicated when the amount of solvent is large.

[0030] When adding ethanol, the amount of ethanol used is twice the volume of the aqueous sulfuric acid solution in step ①.
[0031] The filtrate after removing ethanol was passed into a D152 resin column for adsorption. After the column was loaded, pure water was passed through the column for rinsing until the conductivity of the outlet solution was lower than 100 μS / cm. Then, 0.05-0.3 Mol / L ammonia water was used for gradient analysis. HPLC monitoring was performed, and the components with higher purity were selected, combined, and concentrated under reduced pressure (temperature 50-60°C, pressure -0.08 to -0.1 MPa) to obtain 3.6 g of ethimicin sulfate impurity A.

The reaction of azithromycin sulfate is completed by monitoring by TLC.
[0041] When trifluoroacetic acid is used as the acid, the reaction is carried out at a temperature from 40°C to reflux, and in this example, the reaction is carried out at 40°C.
[0042] After the reaction is completed, the mixture is concentrated under reduced pressure (temperature 50-60°C, pressure -0.08-0.1 MPa) until no liquid drops flow down to obtain a crude oil. Add 250 mL of water to dissolve it for later use.
[0043] The rest of step ② is the same as that of Example 1, except that when ethanol is added, the amount of ethanol used is twice the volume of the water added in step ① (the water added when dissolving).

[0045] (Example 5) The preparation method of the impurity A of ezetimicin sulfate in this example is the same as that in Example 4 except that: What is added in step ① is 30% trifluoroacetic acid aqueous solution.
[0046] In step ②, the resin used is HD-2 resin; the concentration of ammonia water used in the analysis is 0.05-0.3 Mol / L, and 3.0 g of azithromycin sulfate impurity A is obtained after separation.
