Background technology
Naratriptan is the s-generation triptan antimigraine of the plain prestige Kanggong department of Ge Lai (Glaxo Wellcome) exploitation, and curative effect is obvious.Its chemistry N-methyl-3-(1-methyl-4-piperidyl) by name-1H-indoles-5-ethyl sulfonamide (3), its synthetic method is in patent GB2208646 open (corresponding to patent EP303507 and US4997841) first.
Disclosed data shows that the synthetic route of naratriptan has two big classes totally nine routes.Wherein a big class is the b-sulfonamide derivative that earlier synthetic phenyl ring replaces, and carries out indoles closed loop and and the condensation of N-methylpiperidone again.The patent that relates to these class methods has US4997841, WO2006/010079, WO2008/056378 and document (Heterocycles, 2003,60,2441).The synthetic starting raw material of these class methods does not have commercialized supply, and step is long, and yield is low.Close the reagent that to use costliness in the ring process at indoles, or the reagent that pollutes than overall situation is arranged, be difficult to suitability for industrialized production and commercialization such as tindichloride, titanium tetrachloride etc.
The synthetic route of another big class naratriptan is to introduce the ethyl sulfonamide group on indole ring, obtains key intermediate N-Methyl-1H-indole-5-ethyl sulfonamide (2) or derivatives thereof, again with the condensation of N-methylpiperidone.The patent that relates to these class methods has US4997841, US5786473, CN200410093115.These class methods are main method of current suitability for industrialized production naratriptan.According to the difference of ethyl sulfonamide group introducing method, can be divided into two classes again.
The method of patent US4997841 and patent US5786473 is the Heck reaction by N-methyl ethylene sulphonamide (12) and 5-bromo indole (13), and hydrogenating reduction is introduced ethyl sulfonamide group (reaction formula 3) then.One of raw material of Heck reaction no commercialized supply of compound (12) is easy to polymerization in this route, the preparation difficulty.Another starting compound (12) need come from the indoles preparation by four-step reaction, and price is more expensive.The Heck reaction needed is used expensive reagent palladium and three (o-methyl-phenyl-) phosphine in addition.This route cost is higher.
Reaction formula 3
The method of patent CN200410093115 is condensation under alkaline condition by the N-methyl Toluidrin (7) of radical protection and 5-formaldehyde indoles (14), and hydrogenating reduction is introduced ethyl sulfonamide group (reaction formula 4) then.Compound in this route (7) is cheap and easy to get, and the condensation reaction productive rate is good, does not need violent condition and expensive reagent, is a synthetic route preferably.Its defective is that compound (14) cost is higher.
Reaction formula 4
Patent CN200410093115 discloses the method (reaction formula 5) for preparing compound (14).With 5-bromo indole (13) is raw material, goes through steps such as cyaniding, reduction and radical protection.But the starting compound in this route (13) still needs to come from the indoles preparation by four-step reaction, cyanogenation needs the poisonous reagent cuprous cyanide of microwave condition, equimolar amount and more expensive solvent N-Methyl pyrrolidone, cost height not only, also have serious pollution problem, be not suitable for suitability for industrialized production.
Reaction formula 5
Comprehensive above background technology, N-Methyl-1H-indole-5-ethyl sulfonamide (2) are the key intermediates during naratriptan (Naratriptan) synthesizes.Still do not have so far that a kind of technology of preparing or route can satisfy comprehensively that raw material is cheap and easy to get, step is short, higher, easy to operate, the eco-friendly industrialization of productive rate and commercialization requirement, require further improvement.
