Description

Process for the preparation of a complement factor D inhibitor, intermediates thereof and process for the preparation of intermediates

[0001] This application claims priority to Chinese patent application 202411126120.6, filed on August 16, 2024. This application incorporates the entirety of the aforementioned Chinese patent application. TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] The present application belongs to the field of pharmaceutical compound preparation methods, and specifically relates to a process for the preparation of a complement factor D inhibitor, intermediates thereof and process for the preparation of intermediates. BACKGROUND

[0003] Complement is a protein widely present in human and vertebrate serum, tissue fluid and cell membrane surface, mediates immune and inflammatory reactions, and is mostly a glycoprotein produced by liver cells, macrophages and intestinal mucosal epithelial cells and other cells. Complement is the necessary complement for antibodies to achieve their cytolysis, hence the name complement, but it actually mediates specific and non-specific immunity. The three activation pathways of the complement system include the classical pathway, the mannose-binding lectin pathway (MBL) and the alternative (side) pathway. Complement factor D plays an early and core role in the cascade activation of the complement side pathway. The activation of the side complement pathway is initiated by the spontaneous hydrolysis of the thioester bond in C3 to produce C3(H2O), and C3(H2O) associates with factor B to form a C3(H2O)B complex. The role of complement factor D is to break factor B in the C3(H2O)B complex to form Ba and Bb. Bb, in addition to binding with C3b to form C3 convertase, also participates in the proliferation of pre-activated B lymphocytes, while Ba inhibits its proliferation. D factor has high expression level in fat, can stimulate glucose transport and promote the accumulation of triglycerides in adipocytes, and inhibit lipolysis.

[0004] Complement system disorder plays an important role in the pathogenesis of IgA nephropathy (IgAN), lupus nephritis (LN) and paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH). Complement components and immune deposits are often found in the kidney pathological examination of IgAN and LN, complement is the direct cause of PNH hemolysis, C5aR participates in the amplification of complement system damage, complement factor B (CFB) and complement factor D (CFD) are key components of the complement side pathway and directly participate in the regulation of complement activation. Therefore, C5aR, CFB and CFD are closely related to the pathogenesis of IgAN, LN and PNH.

[0005] Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is a rare, life-threatening blood disorder characterized by complement-driven hemolysis, thrombosis, and impaired bone marrow function, leading to anemia, fatigue, and other debilitating symptoms that can severely impact patients' quality of life. Currently, the main drugs for PNH on the market are monoclonal antibody drugs Soliris and Ultomiris. Among them, Soliris was first approved for marketing in 2007, and has been approved for the treatment of a variety of ultra-rare diseases, including: paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH), atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS), generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG), opticospinal cord spectrum disorder (NMOSD). Ultomiris is an upgraded product of Soliris, a second-generation, long-acting C5 complement inhibitor, which was first approved for marketing at the end of 2018, and the approved indications include: paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH), atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS). A large proportion of PNH patients are still anemic and dependent on blood transfusions with current anti-C5 standard of care therapy. In addition, small molecule Voydeya (danicopan) was also approved by the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare (MHLW) and FDA in 2024, as an additional therapy to the standard therapy complement factor C5 inhibitor Ultomiris or Soliris for a subset of patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) who experience significant extracellular hemolysis (EVH) when treated with C5 inhibitors.

[0006] A compound that can be a complement factor D inhibitor is disclosed in PCT application WO2023051793A1, which has a good inhibitory effect on complement factor D. The application also discloses a preparation method of the compound, wherein some steps have no difference in reaction site activity, resulting in the generation of excessive coupling impurities and low reaction yield. The product is obtained by column chromatography separation and purification in multiple steps in the preparation process, which is not suitable for industrial production. Therefore, it is still of value to study a preparation method of the compound that improves the material conversion rate of each step, explores a preparation route with moderate length and simple purification steps, and is convenient for industrial production.
