The preparation method of imatinib mesylate intermediate
Technical field
The present invention relates to methodology of organic synthesis design and bulk drug and Intermediate Preparation technology, particularly a kind of preparation method of imatinib mesylate intermediate.
Background technology
Imatinib mesylate is the tyrosine kinase inhibitor class medicine researched and developed by Novartis Co., Ltd of Switzerland, is used for the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CML) and Gastrointestinal Stromal cell tumour (GIST).Imatinib, as the molecular targeted therapy of first listing, has started the epoch of tumor cells targeted therapy, is described as landmark discovery.Imatinib mesylate respectively at calendar year 2001 and 2002 with Glivec (imatinib mesylate) in the U.S. and Discussion on Chinese Listed.
The active pharmaceutical ingredients of imatinib mesylate is imatinib, chemistry 4-[(4-methyl isophthalic acid-piperazine) methyl]-N-by name [(4-methyl-3-[[4-(3-pyridine)-2-pyrimidine] is amino] phenyl] benzamide, molecular formula is as follows:
The report of the synthetic method of above-mentioned imatinib and intermediate is a lot, can with reference to following patent: EP223116, EP2152267, EP2146978, EP2076507, EP2074095, EP1966186, EP1896447, EP1833815, EP1804800, EP1696917, EP1599462, US7674901, US7507821, US7638627, US5521184, US20060149061, US20060223817, US20040248918, WO200306613, WO2004074502, WO20040108699, WO2008051597, CN101528700, CN101701015, CN102250062, CN102276518, CN1077713, CN1900073, CN1016293, it is, in the selection of synthon and the precedence of assembling, be summed up several synthetic methods as follows that difference in these synthetic methods is mainly reflected in:
Article 1, synthetic method, first passes through the link of piperazine fragment and nitro fragment, then by nitroreduction and guanidinated reaction, final and piperidines fragment is obtained by reacting imatinib.This design reactions steps is many, and each group constantly adds up, and total recovery is low, is not suitable with industrialized development.
Article 2 synthetic method, first by preparing piperazine fragment, then bromo-4-amido toluene is condensed into active piperazines fragment with 2-, then with intermediate 4-(3-pyridyl) pyrimidine-2-amine (II) condensation, obtain imatinib.This method of design make use of intermediate II as synthon, decreases reactions steps, and total recovery is increased.But the mode progressively added up owing to still adopting functional group in method of design, and the last two steps is the not too high condensation reaction of yield, therefore also constrains the practical application of the method.
Article 3 synthetic method is for raw material with 4-(3-pyridyl) pyrimidine, 2-chloro-4-(3-pyridyl) pyrimidine is generated through superchlorination, obtain important itrated compound fragment with p-nitro-o-aminotoluene coupling again, itrated compound fragment obtains aminate fragment by reduction.Then imatinib is obtained by condensation, salify.Required intermediate (or synthon) synthesizes by the method in advance, synthesis step is greatly reduced, improves total reaction yield, but use highly toxic product phosphorus oxychloride during the method chlorination, larger on affecting environmental influence.
Article 4 synthetic method, first with obtained guanidine derivative and piperidine derivative for raw material, through a step condensation directly obtained itrated compound fragment, then obtain aminate fragment by reduction.Then imatinib is obtained by condensation, salify.The method is also by first preparing aminate intermediate compound I, then synthesizes imatinib thus.But the step of the method is more, first to passes through itrated compound catalytic hydrogenation more equally, total yield is decreased.
