Description

Carpicrite salt type and its preparation method Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of medicinal chemistry, specifically to the malate and succinate of cappicetide, methods for their preparation, and uses for preparing cappicetide crystal form A. Background Technology

[0002] Capivasertib is the world's first small molecule inhibitor targeting protein kinase AKT, exhibiting high inhibitory activity against AKT1 / 2 / 3. On November 16, 2023, the drug received marketing approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) under the brand name TRUQAP. It is indicated for use in combination with fulvestrant for the treatment of hormone receptor (HR) positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) negative, locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer in adult patients who have been found to have one or more PIK3CA / AKT1 / PTEN mutations in FDA-approved trials. These patients must have progressed in a metastatic setting after receiving at least one endocrine-based therapy or relapsed within 12 months of completing adjuvant therapy.

[0003] Currently, the existing technology CN104203953B discloses different crystal forms, preparation methods, and applications of carpicrite. Specifically, it discloses crystal forms A, B, and C of carpicrite, among which crystal form B is a stable crystal form. Under certain conditions, crystal form A can be converted into crystal form B, but crystal form B has a lower dissolution rate than crystal form A. In practice, it has also been found that crystal form A can also exist stably under certain conditions, showing potential medicinal value. However, the existing technology for preparing carpicrite crystal form A is unstable, resulting in the inability to stably obtain carpicrite crystal form A and the low purity of the obtained carpicrite crystal form A, which hinders the further application of carpicrite crystal form A.

[0004] Therefore, there is a need in this field to develop a more stable process for preparing carpicret crystal form A for better application. Summary of the Invention

[0086] Through extensive and in-depth research, the inventors have, for the first time, provided two salt forms of carpicrite: carpicrite malate and carpicrite succinate. These two salt forms can be used to prepare carpicrite crystal form A with higher purity and better stability, making them suitable for industrial production. Based on this, the inventors completed this invention.

[0087] the term

[0088] Unless otherwise defined, 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 pertains.

[0089] As used herein, the terms “containing” or “including (comprise)” can be open-ended, semi-closed, or closed. In other words, the terms also include “consistently made of” or “composed of”.

[0090] As used in this article, the term "optionally" means that it may or may not be added.

[0091] As used in this article, the term "room temperature" generally refers to 4℃ to 30℃, and preferably 20℃ ± 5℃.

[0092] As used in this article, the term "carpicolor raw material" generally refers to carpicolor amorphous or crystalline form.

[0093] Carpi Color

[0094] The chemical name of capiprine (I) is: 4-amino-N-[(1S)-1-(4-chlorobenzyl)-3-hydroxypropyl]-1-(7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-yl)-4-piperidinecarboxamide, and its structural formula is:

[0095] Carpicrite is a compound with low solubility, almost insoluble in water. Existing technologies disclose carpicrite in crystal forms A, B, and C. Crystal form B is a stable crystal form. Under certain conditions, crystal form A can be converted to crystal form B, but crystal form B has a lower dissolution rate than crystal form A. Furthermore, it has been found in practice that crystal form A can also exist stably under certain conditions, possessing potential medicinal value. However, the existing process for preparing carpicrite crystal form A is unstable, resulting in the inability to stably obtain carpicrite crystal form A and the low purity of the obtained carpicrite crystal form A, hindering its further application.

[0096] This invention provides an intermediate carpicrite salt form, which can be used to prepare high-purity carpicrite crystal form A, providing a better option for the application of carpicrite. Furthermore, this high-purity crystal form A is also more conducive to the preparation of pharmaceutical crystal form B. Specifically, the intermediate salt form is selected from carpicrite malate and carpicrite succinate forms.

[0097] Carpicrite malate, its molecular formula is: C 25 H 31 ClN6O7, its chemical structural formula is shown in formula (I):

[0098] Capisothiazoline diphosphate, its molecular formula is: C 25 H 31 ClN6O7, its chemical structural formula is shown in formula (II):

[0099] The purity of the kapisitet crystal form A obtained by preparing the intermediate salt form of the present invention is ≥90%, preferably ≥95%, more preferably ≥99%, and even more preferably ≥99.5%.

[0100] Preparation method of carpicrite salt type

[0101] There are many existing reports on the salt forms of carpicrite. For example, US2024 / 0051964 A1 discloses preparation processes for various carpicrite salt forms, including hydrochloride, dihydrochloride, glutarate, and sebacic acid salt. However, the salt formation process provided is cumbersome and has a long crystallization time (up to 72 hours).

[0102] In response, this invention provides a calpicot salt type with a simpler salt formation process and shorter crystallization time, and its preparation method.

[0103] Specifically, the preparation method of the aforementioned carpicroside malate includes the following steps:

[0104] (a-1) Dissolve the carpicrin raw material in inert solvent A at 50℃~70℃ to obtain a clear liquid;

[0105] (b-1) The clear liquid obtained from stirring step (a-1);

[0106] (c-1) Add a solution of malic acid in inert solvent A to the supernatant from step (b-1);

[0107] (d-1) Cool to 5℃~10℃ and keep warm for crystallization for 12h~36h; preferably 18h~24h.

[0108] (e-1) Filter and dry to obtain carpicrate malate.

[0109] Specifically, the preparation method of the aforementioned carpicretinoic acid diphosphate includes the following steps:

[0110] (a-2) Dissolve the carpicrin raw material in inert solvent B at 50℃~70℃ to obtain a clear liquid;

[0111] (b-2) The clear liquid obtained from stirring step (a-2);

[0112] (c-2) Add acetonitrile-water solution of succinic acid dropwise to the clear solution from step (b-2);

[0113] (d-2) Cool down to 5℃~10℃ and keep warm for 4h~8h for crystallization.

[0114] (e-2) Filter and dry to obtain carpicrate diisocyanate.

[0115] Both the inert solvent A and the inert solvent B are independently selected from water-miscible organic solvents and mixtures of water and water-miscible organic solvents; the water-miscible organic solvents are selected from acetonitrile, 1,4-dioxane and tetrahydrofuran.

[0116] The stirring time in step (b) is 5 min to 60 min, 10 min to 50 min, 10 min to 40 min, 10 min to 30 min, 10 min to 15 min, etc.; in some preferred embodiments, heating (50-70℃) or other methods can be used to promote dissolution.

[0117] The heat preservation and crystallization time in step (d) is 1h-48h, 1h-24h, 1h-12h, 1h-8h, 2h-8h, 4h-8h, etc. Preferably, the heat preservation and crystallization is carried out at room temperature, for example, 20℃-35℃.

[0118] Preparation of Carpicrite Salt-Type Intermediates for Carpicrite Crystal Form A

[0119] The existing method for preparing capiprine crystal form A involves purifying the crude reaction solution for capiprine preparation by column chromatography to obtain capiprine in an amorphous state, and then converting it into crystal form A by removing the solvent ethyl acetate.

[0120] The preparation process has obvious defects. First, the chemical purity of crystal form A depends on the separation effect of column chromatography. If the chemical purity cannot be guaranteed, it is difficult for the related substances to meet the pharmaceutical purity requirements. The separation efficiency of column chromatography is low. In addition, the process is difficult to realize industrial production.

[0121] This invention provides a method for preparing carpicrite crystal form A using the above-mentioned carpicrite intermediate salt form. Specifically, it includes the following steps:

[0122] (1) Provide a solution of capiprite malate or capiprite succinate in a C2-C6 ether solvent, which is mixture 1;

[0123] (2) Add Na2CO3 aqueous solution to the mixture 1 to obtain mixture 2;

[0125] (4) Take the organic phase obtained in step (3) and add water and stir, then separate the liquids;

[0126] (5) At 0-10℃, C1-C6 alcohol solvents are added to the organic phase obtained in step (4) to obtain mixture 3;

[0127] (6) The mixture 3 is kept at a constant temperature to crystallize and obtain Capsicentiate crystal type A.

[0128] In the above steps, the addition of Na2CO3 aqueous solution is to release the free base of carpicrite.

[0129] The stirring time in steps (3)-(4) is 5 min to 60 min, 10 min to 50 min, 10 min to 40 min, 10 min to 30 min, and 10 min to 15 min, until the final reaction is complete or the solution is dissolved.

[0130] The crystallization time in step (6) is 1h~48h, 1h~24h, 1h~12h, 1h~8h, 2h~8h, 4h~8h, 8h~12h, 8h~18h, 8h~24h, 12h~18h, etc., of which 12h~18h is preferred.

[0131] The C2-C6 ether solvent is preferably one or a combination of tetrahydrofuran, 2-methyltetrahydrofuran, and tert-butyl methyl ether.

[0132] The C1-C6 alcohol solvent is preferably selected from one or a combination of methanol, ethanol, isopropanol and tert-butanol.

[0133] Compared with the prior art, the main advantages of the present invention include:

[0134] (1) The carpicetine malate and carpicetine succinate of the present invention have good stability and high purity, which is beneficial for formulation application.

[0135] (2) The preparation method of carpicroside malate and succinate of the present invention is safe and simple, the crystallization system does not form gel, it is feasible for scale-up, and the operation is simple and easy to carry out, which is convenient for industrial production.

[0137] (4) The process of using the malate and succinate of the present invention to prepare the crystal form A of the carpicrite is simple, and the resulting carpicrite crystal form A has high purity and yield, which is conducive to industrial production.

[0165] At room temperature, 1.0 g of DL-malate of capiprine prepared in Example 2 was added to THF (60.0 ml), and 20 ml of prepared Na2CO3 aqueous solution (10%) was added to it. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 10-15 min and then allowed to stand for 5 min to separate the layers. The separated organic phase was added to purified water (20 ml), stirred for 10-15 min and then allowed to stand for 5 min to separate the layers. Isopropanol (10.0 ml) was added dropwise to the separated organic phase at 0-10 °C. After crystallization at this temperature for 12 h, the mixture was filtered.
