Description

The Etoposide intermediates preparation

The present invention relates to change into the intermediate of difference to podophyllotoxin and relevant antineoplastic agent thereof.Particularly be related to difference new effectively complete synthesis to podophyllotoxin, then, difference can easily be transformed into known antineoplastic by known program to podophyllotoxin.In addition, the present invention also provides the technology for preparing these intermediates, and these intermediates are transformed into the technology of difference to podophyllotoxin and related compound.

Difference is the 4-hydroxyl epimer of podophyllotoxin (II) to podophyllotoxin (I), and it is a kind of xylan lactone of separating from several podophyllotoxins, has very strong cytotoxicity.Simultaneously, known many other of people has the related compound of the aryl-tetrahydro naphthalene ring structure of feature, they have plenty of naturally occurring, has plenty of to derive out from some naturally occurring compounds.Some of them have anti-tumor activity, and other then can change into has this active compound.Difference is as follows to the structure of podophyllotoxin (I) and podophyllotoxin (II):

Difference is to podophyllotoxin (I)

The above-mentioned chemical compound lot that comprises podophyllotoxin all prepares by complete synthesis now.

At J.Org.Chem., 31,4004-4008(1966)-Wen in, W.J.Gensler and C.D.Gatsonis have described the complete synthesis of the podophyllotoxin (II) realized by the epimerization of the adjacent tetrahydropyran derivatives that uses enolate quenching picropodophyllin., this epimerization reaction is not exclusively, still needs and separates the mixture of podophyllotoxin (II) and picropodophyllin (III), and the ratio of the two is about 45: 55.Picropodophyllin (III) is the interior ester isomer of the cis of podophyllotoxin (II).Structure is as follows:

Picropodophyllin (III)

At J.Am.Chem.Soc., 82,1714-1727(1960)-Wen in, people such as W.J.Gensler have reported the complete synthesis of picropodophyllin (III), response procedures reach 13 the step, total recovery is on the low side.People such as the present invention and Gensler report different have fully been avoided the preparation of picropodophyllin (III).

At J.Org.Chem., 46,2826-2828(1981)-Wen in, people such as A.S.Kende have reported and have a kind ofly improvedly prepared the total synthesis method of picropodophyllin (II) by piperonylaldehyde that in totally 12 steps, its total recovery is 4.5%.It is similar that but the synthetic and above-mentioned Gensler of Kende synthesizes, and still need synthesize picropodophyllin (III), and then epimerization.

In the J.C.S.Perkin I, 271-276(1982)-Wen in, W.S.Murphy and S.Wat lanasin have narrated the building-up process of improved aryl tetralone (IV), its structural formula is as follows:

Aryl tetralone (IV)

Aryl tetralone (IV) is the intermediate of a synthetic picropodophyllin (III), the aryl tetralone is once at above-mentioned J.Am.Chem.Soc., 82,1714-1727(1960)-being introduced among the Wen, the present invention also utilizes aryl tetralone (IV) as the complete synthesis super beginning raw material of podophyllotoxin (I).

D.Rajepaksa and R.Rodrigo are at J.Am.Chem.Soc., 103,6208-6209(1981)-Wen in, R.Rodrigo is at J.Org.Chem., 45,4538-4540(1980)-Wen in, all reported podophyllotoxin (II) and difference novel synthesis to podophyllotoxin (I), it can be when picropodophyllin (III) be transformed into podophyllotoxin (II), avoid using the thermodynamics grid described in people's such as people such as above-mentioned Gensler and Kende document, the synthetic precursor (compound 9 in document in 1980) that then requires a dicycloization of preparation of Rodrigo only could obtain the yield of a satisfaction when cyclisation again.

The present invention has also avoided intermediate picropodophyllin (III), and provides one to utilize the new effective main body of cheap chemical to select synthetic method, so that novel process has commercial possibility.

On August 18th, 1970, in the United States Patent (USP) 3,524,844 that people such as Keller-Juslen propose, narrated that 4 ' piptonychia basis replaces to podophyllotoxin-β-D() preparation method of glucoside, its structural formula is as follows:
