The presence of these impurities can seriously affect the purity of bianjiaol and thus affect its subsequent application effect. The yield of bianjiaol is influenced by various factors such as raw material quality, reaction conditions, and catalyst performance. Therefore, in actual production, the yield of bianjiaol often fluctuates greatly and is difficult to maintain stable. SUMMARY

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0015] Example 1 An intermediate for progesterone preparation includes anaprogesterone, the main component of which is anaprogesterone. The structural formula of anaprogesterone is R1-OH R2-OH, where R1 and R2 represent two different organic groups. The anaprogesterone molecule contains two hydroxyl (-OH) functional groups attached to two different carbon atoms. The main components of anaprogesterone include ethyl abirate, hainanoxalic acid, 2-aminophenethyl ether, and eicosapentaenoic acid. The preparation ratio of ethyl abirate, hainanoxalic acid, 2-aminophenethyl ether, and eicosapentaenoic acid is 1:1.2:0.8:1.5. Ethyl abirate is a compound with the molecular formula C22H34O2, a density of 1.019±0.1 g / cm3, and a boiling point of 417.9±19.0 ℃ at 760°C. With a molecular weight of 201.6℃ and a flash point of 201.6℃, it is mainly used as a plasticizer in cellulose ester coatings. Oxalic acid also has the molecular formula C22H34O2, its CAS number is 2548-85-8, and its molecular weight is 330.50416. This compound is associated with multiple targets. 2-Aminophene ether has the chemical formula C8H11NO, a density of 1.0519±0.1 g / cm³, a boiling point of 230.3±23.0℃ at 760 mmHg, and a melting point of -20℃ at 760 mmHg. Eicosapentaenoic acid has the molecular formula C22H34O2, a molecular weight of 330.504, a CAS number of 24880-45-3, a density of 0.9±0.1 g / cm³, and a boiling point of 442.2±24.0℃ at 760 mmHg.
[0016] Example 2 A method for preparing a progesterone preparation intermediate includes the following preparation process; S1: Select an appropriate amount of live mycobacterial bacteria from actinomycetes for multiple mutagenesis to prepare strains with dual deficiencies of C1,2 dehydrogenase and C22 dehydrogenase. S1.1: The live mycobacterial strains in the actinomycetes can be obtained from soil samples collected from places rich in organic matter and free from chemical pollution, such as soil, wetlands, and peatlands. The collected soil samples are then processed appropriately, such as grinding, sieving, and drying, to remove impurities and moisture. The microorganisms in the soil are dispersed onto the culture medium by methods such as coating and streaking. After a period of cultivation, colonies suspected to be mycobacteria are selected, and the selected colonies are further purified until pure cultured live mycobacterial strains are obtained. Further purification of suspected mycobacterial colonies involves treating the sample with a digestive solution (such as the N-acetyl-L-cysteine-sodium hydroxide method) to kill other microorganisms, which facilitates the isolation of mycobacteria. The treated sample is then centrifuged to remove the supernatant, and then resuspended in sterile phosphate buffer to prepare a suspension.
[0017] S1.2: The aforementioned multiple mutagenesis of live mycobacterial strains refers to the use of ultraviolet light to irradiate mycobacteria, causing changes in their DNA molecular structure and resulting in gene mutations; S2: The C1,2 dehydrogenase and C22 dehydrogenase dual-deficient strains were placed in the fermentation medium, and the fermentation broth was stirred and heated in a water bath. S2.1: The stirring frequency of the fermentation broth is 30 revolutions per minute, the stirring time is 2 hours, the water bath heating temperature during stirring is 100℃, and pressure treatment is carried out during water bath heating. The pressure treatment adopts a closed pressure treatment method, and the pressure of the closed space is 1.1~1.3MPa. S3: Extract an appropriate amount of dilute sulfuric acid, neutralize the dilute sulfuric acid to pH 3.5, add perlite filter aid, heat and stir for 2 hours, and pressurize during the heating and stirring process. The pressurization process adopts a closed pressurization method with a closed space pressure of 1.5MPa. A one-way exhaust valve is set with a safety threshold of 1.5MPa to avoid excessive reaction pressure and damage to the reaction vessel. The exhaust gas discharged from the one-way exhaust valve is collected to prevent diffuse diffusion and pollution of the reaction environment.
[0018] S3.1: The perlite filter aid is a powdered chemical product with a certain particle size distribution, obtained by selectively expanding small-particle-size mineral sand in a vertical kiln after heating with purified coal gas and grinding and purifying it after expansion. The perlite filter aid itself does not contain organic matter. It achieves sterilization through high-temperature (1100℃) combustion during the production process. It has good chemical stability and no potential pollutants. Its heavy metal ion content is generally less than 0.005%. S4: Add polyaluminum chloride and polyacrylamide, stir continuously for 3 hours at a stirring frequency of 60 revolutions per minute, stop heating, drain the hot water, and cool to 50°C using a cold water bath to obtain the progesterone preparation; S4.1: The polyaluminum chloride is obtained by reacting aluminum raw material with hydrochloric acid, and then adjusting the alkalinity with sodium aluminate to obtain the product PAC; S4.2: The preparation method of the polyacrylamide involves purifying the acrylamide monomer solution through ion exchange to ensure that the reaction medium is deionized water. A redox initiation system composed of persulfate and sulfite is often used to lower the reaction initiation temperature. In addition, chain transfer agents (such as isopropanol) and chelating agents (such as ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, EDTA) are added to eliminate the influence of possible metal ions. To facilitate temperature control, the monomer concentration is usually below 25%. Due to the high heat of polymerization of acrylamide, the heat of polymerization must be removed promptly. When producing low molecular weight products, intermittent operation or continuous production of several reactors in series can be carried out in a batch reactor, with jacket cooling to maintain the reaction temperature. When producing high molecular weight products, since the product is in a gel-like state and cannot be stirred, the materials in the formula must be mixed evenly and immediately fed into polyethylene bags for cooling and reaction in a water tank. After the reaction is completed, the product needs to undergo post-processing steps such as drying and pulverizing to obtain the final product.
[0019] Example 3 A method for preparing a progesterone preparation intermediate includes the following preparation process; S1: Select an appropriate amount of live mycobacterial bacteria from actinomycetes for multiple mutagenesis to prepare strains with dual deficiencies of C1,2 dehydrogenase and C22 dehydrogenase.

S3: Extract an appropriate amount of dilute sulfuric acid, neutralize the dilute sulfuric acid to pH 3, add perlite filter aid, heat and stir for 1 hour, and pressurize during the heating and stirring process. The pressurization process adopts a closed pressurization method with a closed space pressure of 1.2 MPa. A one-way exhaust valve is set with a safety threshold of 1.5 MPa to avoid excessive reaction pressure and damage to the reaction vessel.
