Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of medicinal chemistry, and in particular to an azulenesulfonic acid-organic base co-crystal and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Sodium azulenesulfonate, also known as sodium guarenate, is also known in English as Sodium Azulene Sulfonate. Its chemical name is sodium 1,4-dimethyl-7-isopropylazulene-3-sulfonate. It is the active ingredient in chamomile and has excellent anti-inflammatory and healing properties for various inflammations, ulcers, and minor wounds in the digestive and respiratory systems, skin, and conjunctiva. Azunol tablets were first approved for marketing in Japan in 1960 for the treatment of gastric and duodenal ulcers. The tablets were also approved for gargling in water to treat pharyngitis, tonsillitis, stomatitis, acute gingivitis, glossitis, and oral wounds.

[0003] Studies have found that two impurity peaks appear in the liquid chromatography of sodium azulenesulfonate raw materials after exposure to light or heating. Based on the synthesis route and the analysis of degradation products of samples exposed to light and heated, and after comparison, the related substances were confirmed to be guaiazulene, the synthetic raw material of sodium azulenesulfonate, and inorganic salts such as sodium sulfite or sodium sulfate. Sodium azulenesulfonate is not very stable, especially under heating and light conditions, and is easily desulfonated (Zhang Zhanhui et al., Determination of the content of sodium guarenate and related substances by high performance liquid chromatography, Pharmaceutical Analysis Impurities, 2001, 21(5): 339-341). Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to improve the stability of sodium azulenesulfonate raw materials, the present invention provides a method for preparing an azulenesulfonic acid organic base co-crystal. The azulenesulfonic acid organic base co-crystal has good stability to high temperature, high humidity and light conditions in solid form, does not crystallize at low temperature and has good stability to high temperature and light conditions in solution form.

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is achieved by adopting the following technical solutions:

[0008] (2) Recrystallizing the crude azulenesulfonic acid organic base co-crystal to obtain azulenesulfonic acid organic base co-crystal.

[0009] Furthermore, the organic base salt includes but is not limited to at least one of berberine hydrochloride, berberine bisulfate, palmatine hydrochloride, chlorhexidine hydrochloride, chlorhexidine acetate, chlorhexidine gluconate, ciprofloxacin hydrochloride, and ofloxacin hydrochloride.

[0010] Furthermore, the molar ratio of the sodium azulenesulfonate to the organic base salt is 1:(0.45-2.05).

[0011] Furthermore, the reaction temperature of the salt-forming reaction is 20-40° C., and the reaction time is 2-10 h.

[0012] Furthermore, the solvent for the salt-forming reaction is water.

[0013] Furthermore, the solvent for the recrystallization is 30-99% ethanol aqueous solution, calculated by volume fraction.

[0014] The second object of the present invention is to provide an azulenesulfonic acid organic base co-crystal prepared by the aforementioned preparation method.

[0015] The third object of the present invention is to provide the use of the aforementioned azulenesulfonic acid organic base co-crystal in the preparation of anti-inflammatory drugs, antibacterial drugs, and mucosal repair drugs.

[0016] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the present invention uses sodium azulenesulfonate and an organic base salt as raw materials to prepare an azulenesulfonic acid organic base co-crystal through a salt-forming reaction; the azulenesulfonic acid organic base co-crystal has good stability under high temperature, high humidity and light conditions in a solid form; does not crystallize at low temperature in a solution form and has good stability under high temperature and light conditions; thus, the stability of the sodium azulenesulfonate during storage and preparation is improved, and the reduction in the purity of the sodium azulenesulfonate in the raw material and preparation due to the presence of related substances is avoided.
