Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of biotechnology, and in particular to a method for preparing a duloxetine intermediate. Background Art

[0002] Duloxetine, English name (R)-Duloxetine, chemical name (S)-N-methyl-3-(1-naphthyloxy)-3-(2-thienyl)-1-propylamine, trade name Cymbalta, is a dual inhibitor of 5-hydroxytryptamine and norepinephrine reuptake (SNRIs). Its hydrochloride is used clinically to treat depression, stress urinary incontinence, chronic pain associated with depression, and diabetic peripheral neuropathy pain. Among the two isomers of duloxetine with the same chemical composition, only the (S)-type has the above-mentioned pharmacological activity. There are many methods for asymmetric synthesis of chiral duloxetine. Through retrosynthetic analysis, it can be found that (S)-N,N-dimethyl-3-hydroxy-3-(2-thienyl)-1-propylamine (S-DHTP) is an important chiral intermediate for the preparation of duloxetine. The synthesis methods of S-DHTP mainly include chemical method and biological method.

[0003] Chinese patent CN202111662305.5 discloses a method for preparing a duloxetine intermediate, which uses an amine methylation reaction to prepare 3-dimethylamino 1-(2-thienyl)-1-acetone hydrochloride with 2-acetylthiophene as a raw material, and then reduces it with sodium borohydride to obtain (RS)N,N-monomethyl 3-hydroxy 3-(2-thienyl)propylamine, and then uses S-(+)-mandelic acid to split to obtain (S)-(-)-N,N-dimethyl-3-hydroxy-3-(2-thienyl)propylamine, and uses phosphotungstic acid loaded with zirconium oxide-titanium oxide as a catalyst to accelerate the reaction speed and improve the reaction yield. The total yield of the duloxetine intermediate prepared by this method is 67.6%.

[0004] Chinese patent CN201510232218.4 discloses the preparation of duloxetine hydrochloride, which splits (S)-mandelic acid to obtain (R)-N, N-dimethyl-3-hydroxy-3-(2-thiophene)-propylamine and (S)-N, N-dimethyl-3-hydroxy-3-(2-thiophene)propylamine, and then converts (R)-N, N-dimethyl-3-hydroxy-3-(2-thiophene)propylamine into (S)-N, N-dimethyl-3-p-nitrobenzoate-3-(2-thiophene)propylamine, and the S-type reaction obtains duloxetine hydrochloride. By converting the R-configuration compound into the S-type, the total yield is higher than that of preparing duloxetine hydrochloride using the S-configuration compound alone. The yield of preparing (S)-N, N-dimethyl-3-hydroxy-3-(2-thiophene)propylamine using this method is 46.46%.

[0005] Chinese patent CN201610382975.4 discloses a method for asymmetric synthesis of duloxetine intermediates using carbonyl reductase, wherein the reaction system of the method is: 2 mL 0.1 mol / L TEA buffer (pH 9.0) contains 1 g / L DKTP, 4.55 mmol / L coenzyme NAD(P)H and 20 U / L enzyme solution, 1 mmol / L Zn 2+ The reaction was carried out at 40°C and 200 r / min for 8 h. The yield of (S)-DHTP prepared by this method was 67%.

[0006] Chinese patent 201910433914.X discloses a ketoreductase mutant and its use in the preparation of duloxetine chiral alcohol intermediates and analogs thereof. The amount of ketoreductase Rr Kred in the conversion reaction system is 1-10 g / L, the buffer concentration is 50-200 mM, the buffer pH is between 6.0-8.5, the coenzyme concentration is 0.1-0.5 g / L, and the substrate concentration is between 5-20 g / L.

[0007] The above patents use chemical and biological methods to prepare duloxetine intermediates respectively. The chemical method has the problems of low yield or harsh reaction conditions and high cost, such as using S-mandelic acid as a chiral resolving agent or other catalyst; the biological method has the problems of low substrate concentration and low production efficiency, and does not mention the subsequent product separation, extraction and crystallization methods after the conversion is completed.

If the manufacturer of the reagents or instruments used is not specified, they are all conventional products that can be purchased commercially.

[0050] The features and performance of the present invention are further described in detail below in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0051] Example 1

[0052] The steps for obtaining ketoreductase are as follows:

[0053] 1. First round of screening: 4 initial sequences (SEQ ID NO: 1-4) were screened from the gene library, and 4 sequences (SEQ ID NO: 5-8) were screened from a large number of candidate sequences using a computer algorithm to simulate the evolution process.

[0054] 2. Second round of evolution: The four selected sequences were artificially designed, modeled and simulated, and computer simulation and molecular dynamics simulation were used to predict the sequence performance after mutation and recombination. Based on the simulation results, variant sequences 2-4 (SEQ ID NO: 9-12) with the best performance under the target conditions were selected.

[0055] 3. The third round of evolution: Based on the sequences 2-4 in the second round, the different amino acids were adjusted according to the 3D model simulation calculation of the protein binding to the substrate ligand, and three point mutation gene sequences (SEQ ID NO: 13-15) were obtained.

[0056] 4. Perform multiple sequence alignment on the three mutated sequences, and generate a consensus sequence, i.e., the final sequence (SEQ ID NO: 16), through the alignment results.

[0057] Example 2

[0058] This embodiment is a method for preparing a duloxetine intermediate, which specifically comprises the following steps:

[0059] S1. Preparation of ketoreductase and glucose hydrolase enzyme solutions

[0060] (1) Primers were designed for the target gene shown in SEQ ID NO: 16 using SnapGene as follows:

[0061] 5'-TACTGTGCAC-3'(SEQ ID NO: 17)

[0062] 5'-AGTTCATCAG-3'(SEQ ID NO: 18)

[0063] (2) After obtaining the target primers, PCR amplification is performed to obtain a PCR product with the expected size consistent with the target sequence.

[0064] (3) The PCR product containing the artificially designed gene sequence was connected to the linearized pET-19b(+), and the recombinant expression pET-19b(+) plasmid was heat-transformed into competent cells of Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) to express the protein.

[0065] (4) The transformed competent cells were added to LB medium (containing 40 μL of ampicillin) and cultured in a fermenter at 37°C with shaking at 220 rpm for 6-8 h. The dissolved oxygen was controlled at 30% and the tank pressure was not higher than 0.08 MPa.

[0066] (5) Induction control: When OD600 reaches about 25, cool down to 28°C and add 0.3 mM IPTG at a dosage of 0.071 g / L. After 10 hours of induction, release the cells when the OD value is above 55.

[0067] (6) The fermentation broth was sampled into a centrifuge tube, centrifuged and the supernatant was discarded. The wet bacteria were weighed and diluted in a ratio of 1 g:4 g water. The temperature was cooled to below 20°C and ultrasonically disrupted. The cell disruption solution was set aside.

[0068] (7) The purchased GDH glucose hydrolase (derived from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens) was cultured in the same fermentation tank as described above. After 10 h of induction, the OD value was above 65 and the enzyme solution was obtained and set aside.

[0069] The wet weight of the bacteria is determined by sampling the fermentation liquid into a centrifuge tube (weighing), centrifuging and discarding the supernatant to obtain the bacterial count n g / L. The total wet bacterial count is n*total volume.

[0070] S2. Catalytic reaction

[0071] (1) Weigh 150 g of the raw material 3-dimethylamino-1-(thienyl)-1-propanone hydrochloride, add 0.38 L of water, add 150 g of glucose, adjust the pH to 6 with 30% sodium hydroxide solution, slowly raise the temperature to 30° C., and stir to dissolve.

[0072] (2) After dissolution is completed, add 300 mL of ketoreductase crushing enzyme solution (20% enzyme solution concentration, equivalent to 40% enzyme addition amount), 120 mL of GDH glucose dehydrogenase crushing enzyme solution (5% enzyme addition amount), 0.6 g of zinc acetate, 0.3 g of coenzyme NADP+, adjust pH to 6, and maintain pH reaction with 30% sodium hydroxide solution.

[0073] (3) Start the reaction, control the temperature at 30°C, react for about 24 hours, and control the liquid phase. End the reaction when the reaction rate is above 98%.

[0074] Among them, the liquid phase control conditions are as follows:

[0075] Column: Water Xterra RP18 (250*4.6mm, 5μm)

[0076] Mobile phase: A 0.4% triethylamine (phosphoric acid adjusted pH = 7.0): B acetonitrile, A:B = 75:25%

[0077] Flow rate: 1.00 ml / min; wavelength: 246 nm / 230 nm; injection volume: 5 μL; column temperature: 25 °C.

[0078] Detection spectrum such as Figure 2 shown.

[0079] S3. Extract and purify the reaction solution.

[0080] The reaction solution was adjusted to pH 4.0 with hydrochloric acid and passed through a ceramic membrane (8k-20k Daltons). After filtration, the clear liquid was directly subjected to ultrafiltration (800-1000 molecular weight) to remove protein.

[0081] The ultrafiltration membrane filtrate was adjusted to pH = 11 with saturated sodium hydroxide solution below 10°C, cooled to 5°C for crystallization for 1 hour, filtered to obtain solid crystals, and dried to obtain 113.8 g of the target product with a yield of 90.5%, a purity of 99.2%, and a chiral purity of 99.57%.

[0082] The liquid phase intermediate control conditions in S2 are used to test the purity of the product after passing through the ceramic membrane and ultrafiltration. The test spectrum is as follows: Figure 3 As shown; the chiral purity of the product was tested using the following test conditions:

[0083] Column CHIRALPAK AD-H (250*4.6mm, 5μm);

[0084] Mobile phase: n-hexane: isopropanol: diethylamine = 96:4:0.2;

[0085] Injection volume 10 μL; flow rate 0.6 ml / min; wavelength 230 nm;

[0086] Detection spectrum such as Figure 4 shown.

[0087] Comparative Example

[0088] The difference from Example 2 is that the source of the ketoreductase is different.

[0089] Verification of ketoreductase CR1 (SEQ ID NO: 19): After 24 hours of reaction, the reaction was only 8.7%, and the enzyme activity was not high.

[0090] Experimental Example 1

[0091] This experiment verifies the effect of substrate concentration and ketoreductase dosage on the conversion progress during the conversion process, as follows:

[0092] On the basis of the same steps as in Example 2, the reaction was carried out in a 100 ml reaction system for 24 hours to detect the progress of the reaction (glucose dehydrogenase was mainly used as a coenzyme regeneration system, and the dosage was kept unchanged at 5%).

[0093] Table 1 Effect of substrate concentration and ketoreductase dosage on conversion progress

[0094] Group Substrate concentration (g / L) Ketoreductase (%) Reaction progress (%) 1 80 25 67.5 2 100 30 82.5 3 120 35 95.8 4 140 40 99.2 5 160 40 99.2 6 180 45 99.4 7 200 45 99.3 8 220 50 96.4 9 220 55 97.2

[0095] As can be seen from Table 1, by continuously increasing the substrate concentration and the amount of enzyme, when the ketoreductase dosage is above 40%, the conversion progress can reach above 98% in 24 hours. However, when the substrate concentration continues to be increased, even if the amount of enzyme is further increased, the reaction is not complete. Considering the comprehensive conversion efficiency and cost, the optimal conversion conditions are a substrate concentration of 200 g / L and an enzyme addition of 40%-45%.

[0096] Experimental Example 2

[0097] This experiment verifies the effect of temperature on product purity during the alkali adjustment and crystallization process during product extraction, as follows:

[0098] Table 2 Effect of temperature on product purity during alkali adjustment and crystallization during product extraction

[0099] Group Maintain temperature (℃) purity(%) 1 0 99.5 2 5 99.4 3 10 99.6 4 15 96.3 5 20 94.5

[0100] As can be seen from Table 2, if the temperature is too high during the alkali adjustment crystallization process, salt will be introduced into the crystallization, resulting in unqualified product purity. Therefore, the crystallization process needs to be carried out at a low temperature (0-10°C).

[0101] Experimental Example 3

[0102] In this experiment, the amplification reaction was carried out under the conditions of 200g / L substrate concentration and 45% ketoreductase dosage:

[0103] According to the 3L enzyme reaction system, 600g of substrate 3-dimethylamino-1-(thienyl)-1-propanone hydrochloride was added to 1.5L of water first, and then 660g of glucose was added. The mixture was stirred and heated to 30°C to slowly dissolve. 30% sodium hydroxide solution was used to adjust the pH to about 6.0.

[0104] Then, 1350 mL of ketoreductase crushing enzyme solution (20% enzyme solution concentration, 45% enzyme addition amount) and 120 mL of glucose reductase crushing enzyme solution (5% enzyme addition amount) were added, 0.6 g of zinc acetate, 0.3 g of coenzyme NADP+, and 30% sodium hydroxide were added to adjust and maintain pH = 5.8-6.0, and the reaction was controlled in the liquid phase to more than 98% to terminate the reaction.

[0105] The reaction solution was adjusted to pH = 4 with hydrochloric acid, and 60 g of diatomaceous earth was added. After stirring for 30 minutes, the filter cake layer was stirred and washed twice with 200 mL of 30°C warm water and filtered. The filtrate was passed through an organic membrane to remove protein. The organic membrane filtrate was adjusted to pH = 11-12 with a saturated sodium hydroxide solution, and the target product (3S)-N,N-dimethyl-3-hydroxy-3-(-2-thiophene)-1-propylamine was obtained by filtration. 471.4 g of the product was obtained with a purity of 99.47% and a chiral purity of 99.9%.

[0106] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention may have various modifications and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
