Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of pharmaceutical intermediate synthesis technology, and in particular to a method for preparing quinolone compounds. Background Technology

[0002] Quinolones are a class of synthetic anti-infective drugs with a pyridoxine core structure. Due to their broad antibacterial spectrum and strong antibacterial activity, they have become one of the most widely used antibacterial drugs in clinical practice. Through structural modification of substituents at different positions on the core, five generations and dozens of quinolone antibacterial drugs have been developed. For example, introducing a fluorine atom at the C6 position of a quinolone can improve its lipophilicity and antibacterial activity against Gram-positive cocci; introducing a substituent at the C7 position can significantly enhance antibacterial activity, improve pharmacokinetics, and even generate new biological activities. Currently, the vast majority of quinolone drugs are compounds with an amino group substituted at the C7 position. In contrast, while quinolone compounds with carbon-carbon bonds substituted at the C7 position also possess excellent antibacterial activity, the difficulty in synthesizing the active pharmaceutical ingredient has hindered the development of these drugs. Currently, only a few quinolone drugs with carbon-carbon bonds substituted at the C7 position are on the market or under investigation, such as: Toyama Chemicals of Japan developed mesylate plus rafloxacin using bromoquinolones as substrates and introducing an isoindole group at the C7 position via Suzuki coupling. This product is suitable for the treatment of pneumococcal pneumonia. The preparation principle is shown in the following formula: ; Ferrer Internacional, a Spanish company, developed ozelafloxacin using chloroquinolones as substrates and incorporating a polysubstituted pyridine at the C7 position via Suzuki coupling. Ozefloxacin is indicated for impetigo caused by Staphylococcus aureus or Streptococcus pyogenes. The preparation principle is shown in the following formula: ; Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. of Japan developed a novel fluoroquinolone compound using iodoquinolones as a substrate and introducing a polysubstituted pyridine group at the C7 position via Suzuki coupling. This compound exhibits excellent antimicrobial activity against Clostridium difficile. The preparation principle is shown in the following formula: ; Shenzhen Alpha Molecular Technology has reported a series of novel phenylquinolone compounds with antibacterial and anticancer properties by introducing different aryl substituents at the C7 position using bromoquinolones as substrates via Suzuki coupling. The preparation principle is shown in the following formula: .

[0003] It can be seen that the Suzuki coupling reaction can conveniently modify different aryl substituents at the C7 position of quinolone. However, there are still some problems in the preparation of the halogenated quinolone precursor of the coupling reaction, such as (1) in order to introduce the halogen atom required for the coupling reaction, an additional 3 to 5 reaction steps are required, which is a long process; (2) the reaction needs to involve dangerous processes such as hydrogenation, diazotization or azidation; (3) the reaction yield is low and the amount of waste generated is large; (4) the amount of transition metal catalyst used is large and the cost is high.
