Description

A polymorph of flupyraclostrobin, its preparation method and application Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of pesticide chemistry, and in particular relates to a polymorph of fluopyraclostrobin and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Fluxapyroxad, whose chemical name is 3-(difluoromethyl)-1-methyl-N-(3',4',5'-trifluorobiphenyl-2-yl)pyrazole-4-carboxamide, has a structural formula as shown in Formula (I).

[0003] The pure product appears as a white crystalline powder with a melting point of 157°C and a water solubility of 3.44 mg / L at a pH of 7. This compound, a carboxamide fungicide developed by BASF, acts on succinate dehydrogenase in the mitochondrial respiratory chain, hindering energy metabolism and inhibiting the growth of pathogens, thereby achieving disease control. It is highly effective against most diseases caused by fungi such as Ascomycetes, Basidiomycetes, and Deuteromycetes, including brown spot, sheath blight, gray mold, and snow mold leaf blight.

These physical and chemical properties may have a certain impact on the application of the compound. The preparation method of the original compound in patent CN101743225A produces crystal forms named Form A and Form B. Form A is generally a transparent block crystal, and Form B is a slightly yellow needle-shaped crystal. However, the configuration stability and phase transition stability of Form A are uncontrolled, and Form B has low solubility.

[0085] Through extensive and in-depth research, the inventors unexpectedly discovered, for the first time, a polymorph of fluopyrab, using induced crystallization technology, as well as its preparation method and application. This polymorph exhibits superior solubility to fluopyrab Form B. It is suitable for use in preparing pesticide compositions for inhibiting harmful microorganisms, and exhibits superior efficacy against most diseases caused by fungi such as Ascomycetes, Basidiomycetes, and Deuteromycetes, including brown spot, sheath blight, gray mold, and snow mold leaf blight. Based on this, the inventors completed the present invention.

[0086] Terminology

[0087] Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs.

[0088] As used herein, when used in reference to a specific recited value, the term "about" means that the value may vary by no more than 1% from the recited value. For example, as used herein, the expression "about 100" includes all values ​​between 99 and 101 (e.g., 99.1, 99.2, 99.3, 99.4, etc.).

[0089] As used herein, the terms "comprising" or "including" may be open, semi-closed, or closed. In other words, the terms also include "consisting essentially of" or "consisting of."

[0090] As used herein, the term "n or more 2θ values ​​selected from the following group" refers to n and any positive integer greater than n (e.g., n, n+1, ...), wherein the upper limit Nup is the number of all 2θ peaks in the group. For example, "3 or more" includes not only 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, ..., each positive integer of the upper limit Nup, but also includes ranges such as "4 or more," "5 or more," and "6 or more."

[0091] In another preferred embodiment, the 2θ value of the X-ray powder diffraction pattern of the polymorph has a deviation of ±0.5°, preferably a deviation of ±0.3°, and more preferably a deviation of ±0.1°.

[0092] Compounds of formula I

[0093] Flupyraclostrobin (Formula I), chemically known as 3-(difluoromethyl)-1-methyl-N-(3',4',5'-trifluorobiphenyl-2-yl)pyrazole-4-carboxamide, is a carboxamide fungicide developed by BASF. It acts on succinate dehydrogenase in the mitochondrial respiratory chain, hindering energy metabolism and inhibiting the growth of pathogens, thereby achieving the purpose of disease prevention. It is highly effective against most diseases caused by fungi such as Ascomycetes, Basidiomycetes, and Deuteromycetes, including brown spot, sheath blight, gray mold, and snow mold leaf blight.

[0094] polymorphs

[0095] Solids exist in either amorphous or crystalline forms. In the case of crystalline forms, the molecules are positioned within a three-dimensional lattice. When a compound crystallizes from a solution or slurry, it can crystallize in different spatial arrangements (a property known as "polymorphism"), forming crystals with different crystalline forms, which are known as "polymorphs." Different polymorphs of a given substance can differ from one another in one or more physical properties, such as solubility and dissolution rate, true specific gravity, crystal shape, packing pattern, flowability, and / or solid-state stability.

[0096] crystallization

[0097] Production-scale crystallization can be accomplished by manipulating the solution so that the solubility limit of the compound of interest is exceeded. This can be accomplished in a variety of ways, for example, by dissolving the compound at a relatively high temperature and then cooling the solution to below the saturation limit. Alternatively, the liquid volume can be reduced by boiling, atmospheric evaporation, vacuum drying, or other methods. The solubility of the compound of interest can be reduced by adding an antisolvent or a solvent or mixture of such solvents in which the compound has a low solubility. There are also novel crystallization methods that can induce the growth of polymorphs by adding additives or polymers.

[0098] Induced crystallization technology

[0099] Induced crystallization technology is a technique that uses external regulatory means to control seed formation, crystal growth, and crystal shape. The inducing media mainly include solvents and additives. Additives can be selected based on functional group interaction strategies or specific additives based on structural similarity. The introduction of additives can form potential interactions with solute molecules, adjust the solution environment, and thus change crystallization conditions, allowing metastable crystals to grow smoothly. Induced crystallization technology has broad application prospects in the field of pharmaceutical preparation and provides new research ideas and technical means for exploring crystal growth mechanisms and morphological control.

[0100] Solvates

[0101] When a compound or drug molecule comes into contact with a solvent, external and internal factors inevitably cause the solvent to form a co-crystal with the compound, leaving it trapped in the solid. The resulting crystallization of the compound and the solvent is called a solvate. Solvents that readily form solvates with organic compounds include water, methanol, benzene, ethanol, ethers, aromatic hydrocarbons, and heterocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.

[0102] Hydrates are a special type of solvate. In the pharmaceutical industry, hydrates are worthy of separate discussion due to their special properties, whether in the synthesis of raw materials, drug formulation, drug storage, or drug activity evaluation.

[0103] In the present invention, the crystal of the compound represented by formula (I) may be a non-solvate or a solvate.

[0104] Pesticide composition

[0105] The "active ingredient" or "active compound" in the pesticide composition of the present invention refers to the compound of formula (I) of the present invention, especially the compound of formula (I) in the crystalline form of the present invention.

[0106] The "active ingredients" or "active compounds" and pesticide compositions of the present invention can be used to prevent or control diseases; or to inhibit harmful microorganisms in agriculture, forestry or horticulture.

[0107] Differential scanning calorimetry

[0108] Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), also known as differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), is a technique that measures the relationship between the energy difference between a test substance and a reference substance and temperature during heating. The position, shape, and number of peaks on a DSC spectrum correlate with the properties of the substance and can therefore be used to qualitatively identify it. This method is commonly used in the field to measure various parameters, including phase transition temperature, glass transition temperature, and heat of reaction.

[0109] Preparation method

[0110] When preparing the fluopyraclostrobin polymorph, the present invention adopts an induced crystallization technology strategy, introduces an organic acid as an additive, and uses a solvent volatilization method or a grinding method.

[0111] use

[0112] The present invention provides uses of crystal forms 3, 4 and 5 and pesticide compositions thereof. The crystal forms are highly effective and broad-spectrum, and have excellent preventive effects on most diseases such as brown spot, sheath blight, gray mold, and snow mold leaf blight caused by fungi such as Ascomycetes, Basidiomycetes, and Deuteromycetes.

It should be understood that these examples are intended to illustrate the present invention only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. The experimental methods in the following examples, for which specific conditions are not specified, are generally based on conventional conditions or the conditions recommended by the manufacturer.

[0118] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meanings as those familiar to those skilled in the art. Furthermore, any methods and materials similar or equivalent to those described herein can be applied to the methods of the present invention. The preferred embodiments and materials described herein are for illustrative purposes only.

[0119] Unless otherwise specified, the experimental materials and reagents used in the following examples can be obtained from commercial sources. Normal temperature or room temperature refers to 4°C-25°C, preferably 15-25°C.

[0120] Test method:

[0121] XRD (X-ray powder diffraction) method: Instrument model: Rigaku Ultima IV, target: Cu-Kα (40 kV, 40 mA), using a D / tex Ultra detector at room temperature. The scanning range is from 3° to 45° in the 2θ interval, and the scanning speed is 20° / min.

[0122] The measurement differences associated with such X-ray powder diffraction analysis results are caused by a variety of factors including: (a) errors in sample preparation (e.g., sample height), (b) instrument errors, (c) calibration differences, (d) operator errors (including errors that occur when determining peak positions), and (e) the properties of the material (e.g., preferred orientation errors). Calibration errors and sample height errors often result in displacements of all peaks in the same direction. When a flat support is used, small differences in sample height will result in large displacements of XRD peak positions. Systematic studies have shown that a sample height difference of 1 mm can result in peak displacements of up to 1° in 2θ. These displacements can be identified from the X-ray diffraction pattern and can be eliminated by compensating for the displacements (applying a system calibration factor to all peak position values) or recalibrating the instrument. As described above, by applying a system calibration factor to make the peak positions consistent, measurement errors from different instruments can be corrected.

[0123] TGA (thermogravimetric analysis) method: Instrument model: TA Q500 thermogravimetric analyzer, using N2 atmosphere, and a heating rate of 10°C / min.

[0124] DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry) Method: Instrument model: TA Q2000 differential scanning calorimeter, using N2 atmosphere, heating rate of 10°C / min.

[0125] Single crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRPD) method: Instrument model: Bruker D8 QUEST single crystal diffractometer, test method: Cu-Kα ray The data were integrated and simplified using APEX3, and the crystal structure was refined using the SHELXL program in Olex2 software. The XRPD patterns and single crystal structure of the simulated single crystal were obtained using Mercury 4.3 software.
