Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of drug synthesis, and particularly relates to a benzhexol hydrochloride tablet and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Parkinson's disease is a chronic neurodegenerative disease with the characteristics of hidden onset and slow progression. It can cause symptoms such as resting tremor and bradykinesia. Some patients also have sleep disorders and olfactory disorders. The main incidence group of Parkinson's disease is the elderly. The disease has a relatively complex pathogenesis, which is mainly due to the degeneration and death of dopamine neurons in the substantia nigra of the midbrain, which leads to a decrease in dopamine levels in the striatum and ultimately causes Parkinson's disease. Age factors, environmental factors and genetic factors are closely related to the onset of the disease. At present, there is no specific method for treating Parkinson's disease clinically. It is mainly through drug treatment to delay the progression of the patient's disease and improve symptoms.

[0003] Trihexyphenidyl hydrochloride is a commonly used drug for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. It belongs to the central anticholinergic drug, which can selectively block the striatal cholinergic nerve pathway, reduce the excitability of acetylcholine, thereby restoring the balance between dopamine and acetylcholine and alleviating clinical symptoms. The drug can also promote the metabolism of energy in the patient's brain, delay the degeneration of brain neurons, and thus improve the patient's condition. At present, the general synthesis route of trihexyphenidyl hydrochloride is to use acetophenone as a raw material, and to react with formaldehyde and piperidine hydrochloride in ethanol to obtain piperidine phenylacetone hydrochloride, and then to react with chlorocyclohexane and magnesium chips to obtain the result of Grignard hydrolysis. The preparation process of piperidine phenylacetone hydrochloride is relatively stable. The key to synthesizing benzhexol hydrochloride is the Grignard reagent. Currently, the main Grignard reagents used are anhydrous ether and anhydrous tetrahydrofuran. Although the crude product has a high yield and a good crystal form, it has a general anesthetic effect and is harmful to the human body if inhaled for a long time. Ether has a low boiling point, and its vapor and air can form an explosive mixture. It is very easy to burn and explode when exposed to open flames and high heat, which is not conducive to large-scale process production.

[0004] In the preparation method of benzhexol hydrochloride of announcement number CN102030723B, for the problem of safety in using ether as Grignard reaction solvent in the existing benzhexol hydrochloride preparation process, asymmetric methyl tert-butyl ether is used instead of ether, the steam generated in the reaction process can be used to isolate air, and the tert-butyl group in methyl tert-butyl ether can play a role in protecting hydroxyl groups in the reaction process, and the boiling point of methyl tert-butyl ether is higher than that of ether, and the reaction process is relatively gentle and easy to control. Although the safety problem that ether may cause as a solvent can be solved, iodine tablets are used in the production process, and the activity of iodine tablets is large, and the risk factor is also large. Not only is the reaction process difficult to control, affecting the product yield, but the iodine wastewater treatment after the reaction is also relatively complicated.

[0005] In addition, traditional benzhexol hydrochloride tablets have a strong anticholinergic effect. After acting on the central nervous system, they can relieve the patient's clinical symptoms. When acting on the periphery, especially the pupillary sphincter of the eye, the pupillary sphincter is inhibited and the pupil dilates, resulting in narrowing of the anterior chamber angle, obstruction of aqueous humor outflow, and increased intraocular pressure. Long-term use of the drug can lead to glaucoma. In addition, the patient's blood drug concentration fluctuates greatly after taking the drug, and benzhexol hydrochloride can block M-type cholinergic receptors, leading to imbalance of the cholinergic-5-HT system. Studies have found that benzhexol hydrochloride can reduce the expression of 5-HT1A receptors in the hippocampus by 40-60%, causing psychotic symptoms such as mental confusion, anxiety, and hallucinations. Summary of the invention

[0006] The object of the present invention is to provide a benzhexol hydrochloride tablet and a preparation method thereof, so as to solve the above technical problems.

[0007] In order to achieve the above technical purpose, the technical solution of the present invention is: A method for preparing benzhexol hydrochloride tablets comprises the following steps: S1. Evenly mix acetophenone, paraformaldehyde and piperidine hydrochloride, add 5wt% 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride solution as a catalyst, react in a water bath at 40°C for 4-6h, and perform vacuum distillation after the reaction. Wash the obtained solid precipitate with anhydrous ethanol and vacuum dry to obtain acetophenone piperidine hydrochloride; S2, using cyclopentyl methyl ether and n-hexane as solvents, magnesium powder and phenylacetone piperidine hydrochloride were mixed and dissolved, and stirred for 3 hours in a water bath at 25-30°C and an ultrasonic power of 300W, and chlorocyclohexane was added thereto in a gradient dropwise manner; after stirring, hydrochloric acid was used to acidify, and supercritical CO was introduced. 2 Acetone was injected into the reactor at a pressure of 8 MPa and a temperature of 35°C, and needle-shaped crystals of benzhexol hydrochloride were obtained after crystallization; S3, dissolving benzhexol hydrochloride needle-shaped crystals, soybean lecithin and cholesterol in 70wt% ethanol solution, stirring and mixing in a 45°C water bath for 40min, and performing high-pressure homogenization after the stirring is completed to control the powder outlet particle size to be 160-200nm, and freeze-drying the obtained powder to obtain modified benzhexol hydrochloride; S4. The modified benzhexol hydrochloride, mannitol and tartaric acid are mixed evenly and then filled into the mold hole for compaction to serve as a quick-release layer. Under a nitrogen atmosphere, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, chitosan and grape seed ceramide are compounded to serve as a sustained-release layer. Finally, double-layer simultaneous compression is performed, and after compression, the tablets are coated to obtain benzhexol hydrochloride tablets.

[0008] As a further improvement, in step S1, the mass ratio of the acetophenone, paraformaldehyde and piperidine hydrochloride is 1:1.1:1.05, and the added amount of the 1-butyl-3-methylimidazole chloride solution is 2 wt % of the acetophenone.

[0009] As a further improvement, in step S2, the mass ratio of cyclopentyl methyl ether to n-hexane is 1:1; the mass ratio of magnesium powder, chlorocyclohexane and propiophenone piperidine is 1.5:1:1.3; the concentration of hydrochloric acid used in the hydrochloric acid acidification is 10wt%~12wt%, and the pH of the solution after acidification is 1.5~2.0; the CO 2 The mass ratio of acetone is 9:1.

[0010] As a further improvement, in step S3, the mass ratio of the benzhexol hydrochloride needle-shaped crystals, soybean lecithin and cholesterol is 1:0.8:0.2; the high-pressure homogenization parameters are: homogenization pressure is 800 bar, cycle homogenization is performed 3 times, and outlet temperature is ≦50°C.

[0011] As a further improvement, in step S3, the specific steps of freeze drying are: drying at -40°C under normal pressure for 4 hours, then drying at -20~10°C under a vacuum of 0.1 mbar for 18 hours, and finally drying at 25°C under 0.05 mbar for 6 hours.

[0012] As a further improvement, in step S4, by mass, the modified benzhexol hydrochloride is 40-60 parts, mannitol is 35-55 parts, and tartaric acid is 5-8 parts; the hydroxypropyl methylcellulose is 60-70 parts, chitosan is 25-35 parts, and grape seed ceramide is 5 parts; the filling amount of the immediate release layer is 150 mg / hole, and the pre-compression pressure is 2 kN; the filling amount of the sustained release layer is 100 mg / hole; the parameters of the double-layer synchronous pressing are set as: initial pressure 5 kN pressing for 0.5 s, main pressure 7 kN pressing for 2.0 s, and holding pressure 5 kN pressing for 1.5 s.

[0013] As a further improvement, in step S4, the coating method of the benzhexol hydrochloride tablets is as follows: polyvinyl alcohol is dissolved in deionized water at a mass ratio of 6:100, stirred in a water bath at 80°C for 15 minutes, cooled to 40°C, filtered with a 0.22 μm filter membrane, and the inlet air temperature is set to 38~42°C, the outlet air temperature is 31~33°C, the atomization pressure is 1.0 bar, the pot speed is 12 rpm, and the spray rate is 20 mL / min for coating. After the tablet weight gain reaches 1.7~2.3%, the coating is stopped.

[0014] As a further improvement, in step S2, the gradient addition process of chlorocyclohexane is specifically as follows: adding at a speed of 1.5 mL / min, with each gradient interval of 10 min, and the addition gradient is 20%, 30%, 30%, and 20%.

[0015] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. Compared with ether solvent, the safety of cyclopentyl methyl ether and n-hexane solvent is significantly improved; the solubility of chlorocyclohexane in cyclopentyl methyl ether is low. As a non-polar solvent, n-hexane can be mixed with cyclopentyl methyl ether to form a gradient polarity system, which reduces the total cost of solvent and improves the solubility rate of chlorocyclohexane; ultrasonic wave replaces traditional iodine tablets to achieve Grignard reaction at room temperature, completely eliminating the explosion risk of traditional solvent ether; gradient addition of chlorocyclohexane, combined with precise flow rate control and supercritical CO 2 -Acetone composite crystallization, the product conversion rate can be increased to ≥95%, and the crystal purity can be ≥99.5%.

[0016] 2. Modified benzhexol hydrochloride, mannitol, and tartaric acid are used as the immediate release layer, and mannitol is used as the quick-dissolving skeleton. Through its own high porosity and high solubility, water can quickly penetrate and the drug can be quickly released, so as to achieve rapid disintegration of the immediate release layer and ensure that the immediate release layer can take effect in a short time; the nanoparticle size of the immediate release layer is controlled (160~200nm), the passive retention probability of benzhexol hydrochloride in peripheral capillaries (d>400nm) is reduced, the binding with peripheral cholinergic receptors is reduced, the anticholinergic effect of the drug on peripheral nerves is prevented, and the risk of patients suffering from glaucoma after taking the drug is reduced; soy lecithin and cholesterol have an effect on the effect of benzhexol hydrochloride on the peripheral capillaries (d>400nm). The phospholipid-encapsulated cholinergic peptide is modified by phospholipid encapsulation. The polar head of soybean phosphate contains a phosphate group, which is completely deprotonated under physiological pH conditions to form a stable negative charge, giving benzhexol hydrochloride negative charge. After entering the human body, it quickly adsorbs plasma proteins to form a protein corona, which is positively charged and produces electrostatic repulsion with positively charged peripheral cholinergic receptors, reducing the binding probability and enhancing the fat solubility of benzhexol hydrochloride tablets, promoting the binding and absorption with the electrically neutral cholinergic receptors of the central nervous system; tartaric acid can adjust the oral pH to be weakly acidic, reduce saliva secretion, reduce the flushing effect on drugs, prolong the drug residence time, and increase the absorption of drugs.

[0017] 3. Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose-chitosan-grape seed ceramide complex is used as the sustained-release layer. Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose is a hydrophilic gelling skeleton material with negative charge. It forms a dense polymer after combining with positively charged chitosan. When it meets water, the surface is rapidly absorbed, the molecular chain unfolds and forms a primary gel layer, and benzhexyphenidyl hydrochloride is slowly diffused and released through the pores of the gel layer; after water molecules enter the sustained-release layer, the hydroxyl group and hydrogen bond of the hydropropyl methylcellulose are broken to form a three-dimensional network gel structure, the viscosity is increased, and the diffusion of benzhexyphenidyl hydrochloride is further significantly blocked, and the blood concentration of the drug is reduced. degree fluctuation; chitosan combines with the negative charge of the gastrointestinal mucosa through its positive charge, prolonging the retention time of benzhexol hydrochloride tablets in the gastrointestinal tract, and its antibacterial property can also reduce the degradation of ceramide by intestinal flora; grape seed ceramide activates peroxisome proliferators, activates receptor γ and binds to the promoter region of the 5-hydroxytryptamine 1A receptor gene, drives its transcriptional activity to increase, inhibits the over-activation of γ-aminobutyric acid interneurons in the dorsal raphe nucleus, relieves the inhibition of anticholinergic drugs on serotonergic neurons, and antagonizes the psychiatric symptoms and side effects of central anticholinergic drugs.

[0018] 4. The drug release mechanism combines a quick-release layer with a sustained-release layer. The quick-release layer preferentially activates the M1 receptors of the central nervous system, quickly restores the balance between dopamine and acetylcholine, and quickly relieves acute symptoms such as resting tremor and muscle stiffness in Parkinson's patients. The gel skeleton of the sustained-release layer controls the slow release of the remaining benzhexol hydrochloride, reduces the fluctuation of blood drug concentration, continuously inhibits the activation of peripheral cholinergic receptors, and reduces the risk of glaucoma and mental symptoms.

The experimental results obtained by the test are as follows: 1. Release mechanism of immediate-release layer and sustained-release layer 20 healthy male rabbits weighing 2.5-3.0kg were selected and randomly divided into five groups. The rabbits were adapted to the experimental environment for 3-5d before the experiment, and normal diet and drinking water were given during the experiment. The hydrochloride benzhexol tablets obtained in each group of examples were given to each group of rabbits in a single dose orally, and blood samples were collected from the rabbit ear vein at 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, and 24h after administration, and 1-2mL of blood was collected each time and placed in a centrifuge tube containing an anticoagulant. The collected blood samples were centrifuged at 3000-4000rpm for 10-15min at low temperature to separate plasma, and the plasma was transferred to a centrifuge tube and stored at -20°C for testing. The concentration of hydrochloride benzhexol in plasma after different administration times was detected by high performance liquid chromatograph, and data such as peak time and duration of action were calculated, and the calculation results were as follows: Table 1 Pharmacokinetic comparison parameter Example 1 Example 2 Example 3 Comparative Example 1 Comparative Example 2 Peak time / h 0.8 0.5 0.6 1.3 2.2 Duration of action / h 10 13 12 6.4 5 Half-life / h 7.4 8.3 7.8 3.6 2.8 Fluctuation coefficient of blood drug concentration 1.8 1.6 1.9 3.9 4.2 As can be seen from Table 1, after Examples 1 to 3 are used in rabbits, the time for the drug concentration in the rabbit blood to reach the peak value is higher than that in Comparative Examples 1 to 2, indicating that after the quick-release layer is modified by phospholipid encapsulation of benzhexol hydrochloride by soybean lecithin and cholesterol, the fat solubility of the benzhexol hydrochloride tablets is enhanced, and the absorption by the cholinergic receptors of the central nervous system with neutral charge is promoted. Combined with the high porosity of mannitol and tartaric acid to adjust the oral pH, the benzhexol hydrochloride component is effective as soon as 30 minutes; in Examples 1 to 3, the duration of drug action can be up to 13 hours, which is because the hydroxypropyl methylcellulose gel skeleton combined with chitosan in the present invention forms a dense gel layer when it meets water, which can maintain the stable release of the remaining benzhexol hydrochloride for 13 hours. Compared with the benzhexol hydrochloride tablets sold on the market, the onset speed is increased by 77%, and in Examples 1 to 3, the blood drug concentration fluctuation coefficient is as low as 1.6, that is, the blood drug concentration fluctuation coefficient is reduced from 4.2 in Comparative Example 2 to 1.6, reducing the risk of peak-to-valley fluctuations.

[0040] 2. Glaucoma Risk Control Twenty healthy male rabbits weighing 2.5-3.0 kg were selected and randomly divided into five groups. The rabbits were allowed to adapt to the experimental environment for 3-5 days before the experiment, and were given normal diet and drinking water during the period. The trihexyphenidyl hydrochloride tablets obtained in each group of rabbits were orally administered with a single dose every day. After 28 days, the eye indexes of the rabbits were measured. The test results are shown in the following table: Table 2 Comparison of rabbit eye indicators Group Change in pupil diameter (mm) Change in aqueous humor outflow resistance (%) Peak intraocular pressure (mmHg) Example 1 +0.8±0.5 -7±6 17.4±0.6 Example 2 +0.5±0.2 -8±3 18.2±0.3 Example 3 +0.7±0.4 -10±5 16.5±0.6 Comparative Example 1 +2.6±0.2 +27±5 20.5±1.8 Comparative Example 2 +2.8±0.3 +35±5 28.7±1.2 It can be seen from Table 2 that the pupil dilation amplitude of rabbits in Examples 1 to 3 can be controlled within +0.8 mm, which is smaller than that in Comparative Examples 1 to 2. This is because the activation of peripheral cholinergic receptors by benzhexyphenidyl hydrochloride is reduced by phospholipid coating modification of benzhexyphenidyl hydrochloride and by controlling the nanoparticle size; while the comparative example does not use phospholipid coating modification and sustained-release technology, resulting in rapid release of benzhexyphenidyl hydrochloride and activation of the iris sphincter M3 receptor, causing pupil dilation and intraocular pressure of 28.7 mmHg, significantly increasing the risk of glaucoma.

[0041] 3. Improvement of mental symptoms Twelve beagle experimental dogs were randomly selected and randomly divided into three groups, four in each group, and placed in a 5m×5m soundproof observation room. The temperature of the test site was 24±1°C and the humidity was 50±5%. An infrared thermal imager and a three-dimensional motion tracking system were set up, and the experimental time was 9-11 am. Basic behavioral parameters, including food intake, sleep cycle and autonomous activity frequency, were recorded for three consecutive days, and then the benzhexol hydrochloride tablets of Example 2, Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2 were orally administered to each group of beagle experimental dogs in a single dose every day. After 28 days, the mental symptoms of each group of beagle dogs were observed, and the results are shown in Table 3.

[0042] Table 3 Beagle dog psychiatric symptom score (APA standard scale) Group Anxiety Index Hallucination incidence / % Cognitive function score Pre-dose baseline 4.5±0.6 35 68±8 Example 228d 2.1±0.3 12 89±4 Comparative Example 128d 6.2±0.8 40 52±2 Comparative Example 228d 6.8±0.4 55 49±6 From Table 2 and Table 3, it can be seen that the present patent scheme adopts a drug release mechanism combining a quick-release layer with a sustained-release layer. On the one hand, by controlling the nanoparticle size of the quick-release layer, the passive retention probability of benzhexyphenidyl hydrochloride in the peripheral capillaries is reduced, the anticholinergic effect on the peripheral nerves is reduced, and the risk of glaucoma in patients is reduced; on the other hand, through the hydroxypropyl methylcellulose-chitosan gel skeleton in the sustained-release layer, the slow release of the remaining benzhexyphenidyl hydrochloride is controlled, the fluctuation of blood drug concentration is reduced, the activation of peripheral cholinergic receptors is continuously inhibited, and the risk of psychiatric symptoms is reduced.
