Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the detection technical field, and particularly to a gas chromatography detection method for residual amount of 2-chloropyrrole in 5-formyl-2,4-dimethyl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylic acid, which is a intermediate of sunitinib. BACKGROUND

[0002] 5-formyl-2,4-dimethyl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylic acid is an organic compound, which is a light yellow powder, and is mainly used as a key intermediate of anticancer drug sunitinib.

[0003] The main synthesis process of 5-formyl-2,4-dimethyl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylic acid is to use tert-butyl acetoacetate as a starting material, and to prepare it through 5-step reactions. In the reaction process, genotoxic impurities 2-chloropyrrole may be produced, and a small amount of 2-chloropyrrole may be left in the product. Sunitinib is a new type of multi-target oral drug for treating tumors, and the research on genotoxic impurities is an important content in the research work of this kind of new drug. Many pharmaceutical companies will prefer to choose pharmaceutical intermediates with genotoxic impurities within an acceptable range. Therefore, the residual amount of 2-chloropyrrole used in the synthesis process of 5-formyl-2,4-dimethyl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylic acid is an important content of quality control. On October 27, 2017, the International Agency for Research on Cancer of the World Health Organization announced the preliminary arrangement of the carcinogen list. The chloride ion and pyrrole ring in the structural formula of 2-chloropyrrole are both warning structures of genotoxic impurities, and may have mutagenic and teratogenic properties. It is a potential genotoxic impurity. According to ICH M7 guidelines and the conventional oral dose of sunitinib, the acceptable intake of 5-formyl-2,4-dimethyl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylic acid is 50ppm, which is calculated by TTC. In order to fully guarantee the quality and safety of the product, the present application develops a method for detecting the residual amount of 2-chloropyrrole according to the limit of 10ppm.

[0004] 2-chloropyrrole is a volatile halogenated hydrocarbon compound with a boiling point of about 145℃. It is preferable to use GC method for detection. The response of GC method using conventional FID detector is poor for detecting this kind of compound, and trace detection of 10ppm is not applicable. Therefore, high sensitivity and high selectivity ECD detector is used to solve this problem. The boiling point of 5-formyl-2,4-dimethyl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylic acid is 374.9±42.0℃ (Predicted), and the conventional liquid injection method cannot be used. Therefore, the headspace injection method is selected to collect and analyze 2-chloropyrrole in the sample. SUMMARY

[0005] Therefore, the application provides a gas chromatography detection method for the residual amount of 2-chloropyrrole in a sunitinib intermediate 5-formyl-2,4-dimethyl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylic acid, which can accurately and simply determine the residual amount of 2-chloropyrrole.

[0006] The technical scheme of the application is achieved as follows: the application provides a gas chromatography detection method for the residual amount of 2-chloropyrrole in a sunitinib intermediate 5-formyl-2,4-dimethyl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylic acid, which comprises the following steps: 1) preparing a 2-chloropyrrole control solution: weighing 2-chloropyrrole, placing it in a measuring flask, diluting it with N,N-dimethylformamide as a control solution, and the concentration of 2-chloropyrrole is 1-10 mg / ml; 2) preparing a 2-chloropyrrole control solution: measuring the control solution in the above step and placing it in a measuring flask, diluting it with N,N-dimethylformamide as a control solution, and the concentration of 2-chloropyrrole is 0.022-3 μg / ml; precisely measuring the control solution and placing it in a top empty bottle, adding an antioxidant, the addition amount of the antioxidant is 0.5 mg / ml-3 mg / ml, tightly closing the bottle, gently shaking to dissolve, and then obtaining the solution; and preparing six parallel samples; 3) preparing a test solution: precisely weighing 5-formyl-2,4-dimethyl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylic acid, placing it in a top empty bottle, dissolving it with N,N-dimethylformamide, adding an antioxidant, the addition amount of the antioxidant is 0.5 mg / ml-3 mg / ml; tightly closing the bottle, gently shaking to mix the solution uniformly, and then obtaining the solution; and preparing two parallel samples; 4) detection: detecting the 2-chloropyrrole control solution and the test solution by gas chromatography, detecting by an ECD detector, recording the peak area, and calculating the content of 2-chloropyrrole according to an external standard method.

[0007] In the gas chromatography condition of the application, the chromatographic column is a 6% cyanopropyl benzene, 94% dimethylsiloxane capillary column, the injection port temperature is 250 DEG C, the detector temperature is 280 DEG C, the carrier gas is high-purity nitrogen with a purity of greater than or equal to 99.999%, the column flow rate is 2 ml / min, the constant flow mode, the split ratio is 5:1, the oven temperature is 140 DEG C, the equilibrium time is 20 min, and the GC cycle time is 45 min.

[0008] Further, in the gas chromatography condition, the programmed temperature condition is that the initial temperature is 120 DEG C, the holding time is 10 min, and the temperature is raised to 250 DEG C at a rate of 10 DEG C / min.

[0009] Further, the antioxidant is ascorbic acid or tea polyphenol.

[0010] Further, the chromatographic column is Agilent DB-624, and the specification of the chromatographic column is 30 m*0.45 mm*2.55 µm. The sample of the control solution and the sample of the test solution is injected after 30 min of equilibrium in the gas chromatograph.

[0011] The formula for calculating the residual amount of 2-chloropyrrole is: ; Wherein: A Spl The peak area of 2-chloropyrrole in the sample solution; A std The average value of the peak area of 2-chloropyrrole in the control solution; W std The sample weight of 2-chloropyrrole in the control stock solution, in mg; W spl The sample weight of the test sample, in mg.

[0012] The present application has the following beneficial effects relative to the prior art: The gas chromatographic detection method for the residual amount of 2-chloropyrrole in the intermediate 5-formyl-2,4-dimethyl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylic acid of sunitinib provided by the present application can effectively separate the 2-chloropyrrole peak from the solvent peak, and the separation degree is greater than 1.5. The problem of difficult vaporization of the test sample due to high boiling point is solved by adopting headspace sampling. The problem that the FID detector cannot detect trace amounts of genotoxic impurities with a residual amount of less than 10 ppm is solved by adopting the ECD detector with high sensitivity and selectivity. The limit of quantification of 2-chloropyrrole can reach 0.125 ng / ml, which is equivalent to 0.004 ppm. This method is accurate and simple, and can accurately determine the residual amount of 2-chloropyrrole. The instrument operation cost is low, the detection process is simple and convenient, and it has good repeatability. It can be used for detecting trace amounts of genotoxic impurities in products.

[0016] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0017] Gas chromatography (FID detector) is usually used to analyze the purity of compounds, but in some cases, it is difficult to accurately measure the residual amount of trace halogenated alkanes, especially when it comes to the detection of halogen-based genotoxic impurities in API or pharmaceutical intermediates, which are usually ppm level limits. The halogenated alkanes detected by the ordinary FID detector generally have the disadvantages of poor peak shape and low column efficiency, and low concentration trace detection often cannot accurately detect the peak. Therefore, the FID detector cannot be used to detect most halogen-based genotoxic impurities. 5-formyl-2,4-dimethyl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylic acid is a solid sample with a high boiling point. Preparing a solution for gas phase detection cannot be vaporized into the chromatographic column, which will cause the residual 2-chloropyrrole to be not completely detected. Therefore, the headspace sampling method is adopted. The residual 2-chloropyrrole in the test sample is vaporized from the test sample under certain temperature conditions, and then the gas is injected into the chromatographic column through the headspace sampler, so as to achieve the purpose of separation and detection, avoiding the problem that the test sample cannot be completely vaporized.

[0018] The pyrrole ring in 2-chloropyrrole is easy to be oxidized under high temperature conditions. Adding an appropriate amount of antioxidant to the reference solution and test sample solution can effectively avoid the problem that 2-chloropyrrole is easily oxidized at high temperature in the headspace heating furnace, resulting in inaccurate detection results.

[0019] In order to further illustrate the detection method of the present application, the following different examples and comparative examples are set.

[0020] In the following examples, the instruments, chemical reagents and gas chromatography analysis conditions are as follows: Instruments and chemical reagents used: gas chromatograph (Agilent8860, Agilent Corporation), electronic balance (BS124S, Sartorius Corporation), DB-624 chromatographic column (30m x 0.45mm x 2.55µm, Agilent Corporation), N, N-dimethylformamide for chromatographic purity, 2-chloropyrrole for analytical purity.

[0021] Gas chromatography analysis conditions: Chromatographic column: 6% cyanopropyl benzene, 94% dimethylsiloxane capillary column (30m x 0.45mm x 2.55µm) Injection port temperature: 250℃ Detector temperature: 280℃ Carrier gas: High purity nitrogen Flow rate: 2 ml / min (constant flow mode) Split ratio: 5:1 Oven temperature: 140°C Equilibration time: 20 min GC cycle time: 45 min Temperature program: Initial temperature 120°C, hold for 10 min, ramp to 250°C at 10°C / min.
