Description
Preparation method of dipeptide compound TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of pharmaceutical chemical industry, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a dipeptide compound. BACKGROUND
[0002] At present, the mortality rate of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases ranks second in the world, among which thromboembolism is the main cause of a high proportion of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and the incidence, prevalence and mortality increase with age. With the increasing aging of the population, the incidence of such diseases is on the rise.
[0003] Currently, there are mainly two types of oral anticoagulants on the market: direct thrombin inhibitors and direct factor Xa inhibitors. Dabigatran etexilate is the only oral effective direct thrombin inhibitor approved for marketing at present, and clinical studies have proved that the drug can effectively replace warfarin to become one of the preferred drugs for preventing stroke and systemic embolism in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation and preventing postoperative deep vein embolism events. Due to the aging of the population and the rising incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, a convenient, selective and orally bioavailable thrombin inhibitor for the treatment of thrombosis has become an attractive target.
[0004] CN113195515A discloses that dipeptide compounds are used for mediating the activity of trypsin-like serine proteases, and the compounds can be used as anticoagulants or trypsin-like serine protease inhibitors, thereby treating thromboembolic diseases and other related cardiovascular diseases.

The method is easy to implement, the quality of intermediates is easy to detect and control, the product quality obtained through kilogram-scale amplification is controllable, so high-quality compound I-1 can be stably and continuously provided for use as a pharmaceutical API, and the method is suitable for industrial production.
