Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of chemical synthesis, and particularly relates to a venetoclax impurity, a preparation method thereof and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Venetoclax ( ) was jointly developed by AbbVie and Roche, and was granted breakthrough therapy by the FDA in 2015 and approved for marketing by the FDA in 2016 for the treatment of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). It is the only Bcl-2 selective inhibitor approved for marketing globally at present, which can play a targeted role, selectively bind to and inhibit the B-cell lymphoma factor-2 protein, and contribute to the restoration of apoptosis of tumor cells.

[0003] On December 2, 2020, venetoclax tablets were approved for marketing in China, and its indication is to be combined with azacitidine for the treatment of newly diagnosed adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are not suitable for receiving intensive induction chemotherapy due to comorbidities or are 75 years of age or older.

[0004] Currently, the synthetic route of the original research of venetoclax is as follows:

[0005]

[0006] In the process of synthesizing the compound venetoclax, compound II will react with the reaction solvent dimethyl sulfoxide to generate impurity compound I, and impurity compound I will remain in compound III, thereby affecting the purity of venetoclax. It is necessary to monitor and detect impurity compound I during the synthesis process of venetoclax to control the quality of venetoclax. As one of the main impurities generated during the synthesis of venetoclax, impurity compound I is difficult to enrich and separate during the synthesis process of venetoclax, and there is no synthesis report of this impurity compound I in the prior art. It is difficult for people to obtain a large amount of impurity compound I with high purity, lack of corresponding reference substances, and it is difficult to qualitatively and quantitatively detect this impurity during the synthesis of venetoclax.

[0007] Therefore, we synthesize impurity I and develop a preparation method for effectively obtaining impurity compound I with high purity, which can be used as an impurity reference substance for impurity localization and impurity control in compound III, and further control the quality of venetoclax raw materials.
