Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of pharmaceutical technology, and in particular to a method for preparing a key intermediate of leboresen, and a novel intermediate substance in the method. Background Technology

[0002] Leemborexant, developed by Eisai Co., Ltd. of Japan, is clinically used to treat insomnia. Insomnia is a subjective experience characterized by dissatisfaction with sleep duration and / or quality, impacting daytime social functioning. According to international diagnostic criteria for insomnia and epidemiological studies, at least 6% of the world's population suffers from insomnia and sleep disorders, and this number is increasing. Leemborexant is a dual inhibitor of orexin receptors OX1 and OX2. This compound inhibits orexin by competitively binding to two subtypes of orexin receptors (orexin receptor 1 and receptor 2). Leemborexant can purposefully promote the initiation and maintenance of sleep by interfering with orexinergic neurotransmission. According to relevant literature, although many synthetic routes for leemborexant have been reported, compound V is a crucial common intermediate in its synthesis, and the synthetic process of this compound determines the economic and environmental costs of the entire process. Compound V is named ((1R,2S)-2-(((2,4-dimethylpyrimidin-5-yl)oxy)methyl)-2-(3-fluorophenyl)cyclopropyl)methanol, and its chemical structural formula is shown below:

[0003]

[0004] Compound V is an important intermediate in the synthesis of Leborresen. Currently, the main synthetic processes for this compound are as follows:

[0005] 1. CN103153963B uses tert-butyldiphenylchlorosilane as a reagent to protect the alcohol hydroxyl group, and then adds the pyrimidine ring under the conditions of diisopropyl azodicarboxylate and triphenylphosphine. The synthetic reagents used in this process are expensive, and the reaction requires low temperature (-15℃). Finally, the product needs to be purified and separated step by step. Column chromatography separation is expensive and inefficient, and is not suitable for industrial production.

[0006] 2. In CN104114524B, lipase is used as an acrylic resin catalyst and ethylene acetate as a hydroxyl protectant. Then, the hydroxyl group is sulfonated with p-toluenesulfonic anhydride, and finally, a pyrimidine ring is added under the catalysis of cesium carbonate. The lipase in this process needs to be customized, the equipment cost is high, and the selectivity of sulfonation with p-toluenesulfonic anhydride is not high. The product is relatively impure and needs to be further purified before the next reaction. However, the product in this step is very easy to deteriorate, and the product content will decrease during the purification process.

[0007] 3. CN113727962A uses Grignard reagents and acetyl chloride as the hydroxyl protecting agent, followed by sulfonation of the hydroxyl group at another position with p-toluenesulfonyl chloride, and finally, the addition of a pyrimidine ring under the catalysis of potassium tert-butoxide. This process has a relatively high yield and a relatively mild reaction temperature. However, acetyl chloride is a highly reactive, colorless, fuming liquid with low boiling and flash points, posing a significant risk of leakage and environmental harm. Furthermore, the high reactivity of acetyl chloride as the hydroxyl protecting agent leads to low reaction selectivity and a tendency to generate disubstituted products. In addition, p-toluenesulfonyl chloride is a solid, and adding it during the reaction by opening the container can affect the reaction environment. Even when dissolved in a solvent and added dropwise, the reaction solvent has strict requirements regarding moisture content. Moreover, after sulfonation of the hydroxyl group with p-toluenesulfonyl chloride, due to steric hindrance, a strong base such as potassium tert-butoxide is required to activate the ester group and introduce the pyrimidine ring. This route is highly dangerous, has low reaction selectivity, and is unsuitable for industrial production. Summary of the Invention

[0008] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for preparing compound V, an important intermediate of leboresen. The technical solution of this invention is as follows:

[0009] As one of the objectives of this invention, a method for synthesizing compound V is provided, characterized in that compound V is synthesized from compound III via compound IV, and the synthetic route is as follows:

[0010]

[0011] Wherein, R1 is ethyl, n-propyl, or n-butyl, and R2 is methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, or n-butyl.

[0013] Preferably, in the method described above, N-methylpyrrolidone is present in the reaction system for synthesizing compound IV from compound III.

[0014] As another object of the present invention, a method for synthesizing compound III is provided, characterized in that compound III is synthesized from compound I via compound II, and the synthetic route is as follows:

[0015]

[0016] Wherein, R1 is ethyl, n-propyl, or n-butyl, and R2 is methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, or n-butyl.

[0017] Preferably, in the method described above, the acylation reagent used in the acylation reaction of synthesizing compound II from compound I is propionyl chloride, n-butyryl chloride, n-valeryl chloride, propionyl bromide, n-butyryl bromide, n-valeryl bromide, propionic anhydride, or n-butyryl anhydride.

[0018] Preferably, in the method described above, the acylation reaction of compound I to synthesize compound II is carried out in the presence of a Grignard reagent; preferably, the Grignard reagent is selected from phenyl magnesium chloride, propyl magnesium chloride, ethyl magnesium chloride, cyclohexyl magnesium chloride, benzyl magnesium chloride, isopropyl magnesium chloride, and isobutyl magnesium chloride.

[0019] Preferably, in the method described above, the sulfonating agent used in the sulfonation reaction for synthesizing compound III from compound II is methanesulfonyl chloride, ethylsulfonyl chloride, n-propylsulfonyl chloride, n-butylsulfonyl chloride, methanesulfonic anhydride, or ethylsulfonic anhydride.

[0020] Preferably, in the method described above, the sulfonation reaction for synthesizing compound III from compound II is carried out in the presence of an acid-binding agent; preferably, the acid-binding agent is selected from pyridine, triethylamine, sodium methoxide, diethylamine, N-ethylisopropylamine, and N-phenylaniline.

[0021] As another object of the present invention, compounds II, III or IV are also provided below.

[0022]

[0023] Wherein, R1 is ethyl, n-propyl, or n-butyl, and R2 is methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, or n-butyl.

[0024] The aforementioned compound is an intermediate for the synthesis of compound V, an important intermediate in the synthesis of Leborersen.

[0025] As another object of the present invention, a method for synthesizing Leborresen is also provided, which includes the step of synthesizing compound V, characterized in that the step of synthesizing compound V is to synthesize compound V from compound I as a starting material according to the method described above, and the synthetic route is as follows:

[0026]

[0027] R1, R2, and each step of the reaction, such as the reactants and / or reagents used in the reaction, are as described above.

[0028] The present invention does not particularly limit the process of preparing leboresen from compound V, and can follow methods existing in the art. For example, the method for synthesizing compound XI (i.e., leboresen) from compound VII (i.e., compound V corresponding to the present invention) disclosed in CN113727962A.

[0029] Compared with existing technologies, this invention unexpectedly discovers that the use of the short-chain aliphatic acylation reagent described in this invention to protect the single-sided alcohol hydroxyl group in the synthetic route effectively reduces the formation of the other isomer product due to its steric hindrance effect, significantly improving the yield of the target product. Furthermore, it is easily removed during the final product preparation process, resulting in fewer impurities and convenient and simple post-processing. In addition, this invention also uses the sterically less hindrance sulfonylation reagent described in this invention to protect the other side of the alcohol hydroxyl group of compound II, making the bimolecular nucleophilic substitution reaction easier to proceed, more complete, and under milder reaction conditions. It also facilitates removal in subsequent reactions, increasing the reaction yield. Compared with existing methods, the method of synthesizing compound V in this invention not only has mild process conditions and high yield (the total molar yield of the four steps can even reach over 75%), but the entire synthetic method is also safe, greatly reducing the risk of the synthetic route and making it more suitable for industrial production. The method of this invention has complete reaction, high reaction selectivity, fewer byproducts, and each step only requires simple post-processing, eliminating the need for purification before proceeding to the next reaction, reducing waste emissions, being environmentally friendly, and having low energy consumption, making it suitable for industrial production. In addition, the solvents and reaction reagents selected in this invention are safe to use, inexpensive, and readily available. Furthermore, the solvents can be recycled and reused, resulting in high economic benefits and providing a guarantee for industrial production.
