Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of liquid chromatography detection, and in particular to a method for detecting related substances of 5'(E)-VPA phosphoramidite monomer. BACKGROUND
[0002] The mechanism of action of small nucleic acid drugs is to fundamentally regulate gene expression by interfering with gene transfer and translation process to achieve therapeutic effect. Compared with existing small molecule and antibody drugs, small nucleic acid drugs are widely concerned due to their advantages of fast target screening, wider treatment field, higher safety, longer treatment effect, higher success rate of research and development, etc.
[0003] The phosphate group at the end of the nucleic acid chain of small nucleic acid drugs is prone to degradation by exonuclease, but end modification can increase its nuclease resistance. At the same time, the antisense strand in the double-stranded small interfering RNA (siRNA) must have a 5' phosphate group to specifically bind to the side chain residues of the MID domain in Ago2, and the 5'(E)-VP phosphoramidite monomer is synthesized by chemical synthesis to make the 5' phosphorylation in advance, so as to realize the 5' phosphorylation of the antisense strand.
[0004] From the synthesis process of small nucleic acids, it is not difficult to find that the introduction of 5'(E)-VP phosphoramidite monomer impurities makes the impurities of small nucleic acid finished products more complex, which brings higher difficulty to purification. Therefore, as a key material of small nucleic acids, the research and control of related substances of 5'(E)-VP phosphoramidite monomer are crucial. However, there is no relevant research report on the analysis method of related substances of 5'(E)-VP phosphoramidite monomer. SUMMARY
[0005] In view of the technical problems in the background art, the present application provides a method for determining the related substances of 5'(E)-VPA phosphoramidite monomer based on liquid chromatography. The method is verified to be effective for detecting related substances in 5'(E)-VPA phosphoramidite monomer through system adaptability, specificity, linearity and range, detection limit and quantitative limit, and accuracy verification, which provides a reliable means for quality control of 5'(E)-VPA phosphoramidite monomer.
[0006] The technical scheme of the present application is as follows: The method for detecting the related substances of 5'(E)-VPA phosphoramidite monomer comprises the following steps: a 5'(E)-VPA phosphoramidite monomer sample is precisely weighed, and a test solution is prepared by using acetonitrile as a solvent; and the test solution is detected by using a high performance liquid chromatography method.
[0007] The 5'(E)-VPA solution is unstable under high-temperature, acidic and alkaline conditions, and the present application uses volatile ammonium acetate as the water phase and reduces the column temperature, thereby avoiding the misjudgment phenomenon that the impurity 5'(E)-VPA-OX generated by degradation in the chromatographic column is attributed to the sample impurity due to the limitation of the analysis and detection conditions, and the actual quality condition of the sample can be more truly reflected.
[0008] Further, the mobile phase A is 10 mmol / L ammonium acetate solution. Based on the mobile phase A and the mobile phase B, the gradient elution conditions are preferably as follows: at 0 min, the mobile phase A accounts for 50%, and the mobile phase B accounts for 50%; at 21 min, the mobile phase A accounts for 26%, and the mobile phase B accounts for 74%; at 21.5 min, the mobile phase A accounts for 10%, and the mobile phase B accounts for 90%; at 27 min, the mobile phase A accounts for 10%, and the mobile phase B accounts for 50%; at 27.5 min, the mobile phase A accounts for 50%, and the mobile phase B accounts for 50%; and at 32 min, the mobile phase A accounts for 50%, and the mobile phase B accounts for 50%.
[0009] Further, the chromatographic column is a Shim-pack Scepter C18 column with a specification of 4.6*150 mm, 3.0 μm.
[0010] Further, the injection volume is 10 µL, and the flow rate is 0.8-1.0 ml / min.
[0011] Further, an ultraviolet detector is used, and the detection wavelength is 260 nm.
[0012] Specifically, the detection method comprises the following steps: A 5'(E)-VPA sample to be detected is precisely weighed, and a test solution with a concentration of 2 mg / ml is prepared by using acetonitrile as a solvent; Precisely take 5'(E)-VPA 20 mg, and add mixed impurity solution 1 ml, and then dilute to 10 ml with acetonitrile, and mix to obtain a system suitability solution; in the mixed impurity solution, acetonitrile is the solvent, the concentration of impurity 5'-(E)-VPA-OX is 60 μg / ml, and the concentrations of impurities 5'-(E)-VP-2'-OMe-A(Bz), 5'(Z)-VPA and 5'-(E)-VP-2'-OMe-A-CE-P are all 40 μg / ml; Precisely take 5'(E)-VPA control, and prepare 5'(E)-VPA control solution with a concentration of 2 mg / ml by taking acetonitrile as a solvent; Take the system suitability solution, 5'(E)-VPA control solution and sample solution in turn for analysis, record the chromatogram, and calculate the detection amount of each related substance based on the chromatogram according to the main component self-control method.
[0013] Further, the liquid chromatography conditions include: taking Shim-pack Scepter C18 (4.6*150 mm, 3.0 μm) as a chromatographic column, taking 10 mmol / L ammonium acetate solution as a mobile phase A, acetonitrile as a mobile phase B, gradient elution, an ultraviolet detector and a detection wavelength of 260 nm, a flow rate of 1.0 mL / min, a column temperature of 25 DEG C, an injection amount of 10 μL, and an operation time of 32 min.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following beneficial effects: The method of the present application effectively separates four related substances in 5'(E)-VPA phosphoramidite monomer by adopting specific liquid chromatography conditions. The system adaptability, specificity, linearity and range, detection limit and quantitative limit and accuracy verification of the method all meet the acceptable standards of the pharmacopoeia, and the detection of multiple related substances can be completed in a short time, thereby reducing the analysis cost. Meanwhile, the method is compatible with mass spectrometry, and can meet the qualitative and impurity analysis requirements. In addition, the method can also reduce the degradation degree of 5'(E)-VPA in the detection process, so that the actual quality status of the sample can be more truly reflected. The present application fills the blank of 5'(E)-VP phosphoramidite monomer related substance detection, and has a positive significance for small nucleic acid drug development.
