라베프라졸의 제조방법은 대한민국특허등록 제46393호, 대한민국특허등록 제559169호, 대한민국특허출원 2002-7013675호, 대한민국특허출원 2003-7010217호, 대한민국특허출원 2002-7011987호 등에 개시되어 있다. The manufacturing method of labeprazole is disclosed in Korea Patent Registration No. 46393, Korea Patent Registration No. 559169, Korea Patent Application 2002-7013675, Korea Patent Application 2003-7010217, Korea Patent Application 2002-7011987.

라베프라졸의 제조방법을 기술하고 있는 최초의 특허출원인 대한민국특허등록 제46393호는 반응식 1에 나타난 바와 같이 라베프라졸의 합성공정을 소개하고 있다. Korea Patent Registration No. 46393, the first patent application describing a method for preparing labeprazole, introduces the synthesis of labeprazole as shown in Scheme 1.

반응식 1Scheme 1

상기 반응식 1에서 제시된 합성방법은 벤즈이미다졸-타입의 프로톤 저해제의 합성에서 가장 흔히 사용되는 방법으로서, 화학식 (II)로 표시되는 2-히드록시메틸-4-(3-메톡시프로폭시)-3-메틸피리딘으로부터 2단계의 반응공정으로 화학식 (V)로 표시되는 2-[4-(3-메톡시프로폭시)-3-메틸피리딘-2-일메틸티오]1H-벤즈이미다졸을 제조하고, 이를 m-클로로퍼벤조산(mcpba)으로 산화시켜 화학식 (I)로 표시되는 라베프라졸을 합성하고 있다. 이 방법에서는 화학식 (III)으로 표시되는 2-클로로메틸-4-(3-메톡시프로폭시)-3-메틸피리딘과 화학식 (IV)로 표시되는 2-메르캅토-1H-벤즈이미다졸의 커플링반응 수율이 90%를 넘지 못하고 있다. 또한 m-클로로퍼벤조산이 위험물로 지정되어 있고, 사용과 보관에 있어서 각별한 주의가 필요하고, 대량으로 취급하기 어려운 문제가 있다. 가격 또한 고가여서 대량생산공정에 사용하기에는 많은 어려움을 가지고 있다. Synthesis method shown in Scheme 1 is the most commonly used in the synthesis of benzimidazole-type proton inhibitor, 2-hydroxymethyl-4- (3-methoxypropoxy)-represented by the formula (II) 2- [4- (3-methoxypropoxy) -3-methylpyridin-2-ylmethylthio] 1H-benzimidazole represented by the formula (V) was prepared from a 2-methylpyridine in a two step reaction process. Then, it was oxidized with m-chloroperbenzoic acid (mcpba) to synthesize rabeprazole represented by the formula (I). In this method, a couple of 2-chloromethyl-4- (3-methoxypropoxy) -3-methylpyridine represented by formula (III) and 2-mercapto-1H-benzimidazole represented by formula (IV) Ring reaction yield does not exceed 90%. In addition, m-chloroperbenzoic acid is designated as a dangerous substance, requires special care in use and storage, and has a problem that it is difficult to handle in large quantities. The price is also high, which makes it difficult to use in mass production processes.

가장 심각한 문제점은 이 공정에서 다양한 부산물들이 검출된다는 것이다. 이때 생성되는 대표적인 부산물로는 화학식 (I)로 표시되는 화합물의 피리딘 환에 존재하는 질소가 산화되어 생성된 하기 화학식 (VI)의 2-4-(3-메톡시프로폭시)-3-메틸피리딘-2-일메틸술피닐-1H-벤즈이미다졸 N-옥사이드나 화학식 (I)로 표시되는 화합물의 설피닐기가 산화된 하기 화학식 (VII)의 2-4-(3-메톡시프로폭시)-3-메틸피리딘-2-일메틸설포닐-1H-벤즈이미다졸 등이 있다. The most serious problem is that various byproducts are detected in this process. Representative by-products produced at this time include 2-4- (3-methoxypropoxy) -3-methylpyridine of formula (VI), which is formed by oxidation of nitrogen present in the pyridine ring of the compound represented by formula (I). 2-4- (3-methoxypropoxy)-of the following formula (VII) in which the sulfinyl group of 2-ylmethylsulfinyl-1H-benzimidazole N-oxide or a compound represented by formula (I) is oxidized 3-methylpyridin-2-ylmethylsulfonyl-1H-benzimidazole and the like.

또한, 이러한 반응에 가장 보편적으로 사용하는 m-클로로퍼벤조산의 경우 부산물의 생성을 최소화하기 위해 -45℃ 정도의 저온에서 반응을 실시해야 하는 문제점이 있다. 이러한 노력에도 불구하고 상기한 바와 같은 부산물들이 생성되며 이들을 제거하기 위하여 복잡한 정제과정이 추가적으로 요구되고 있다. In addition, in the case of m-chloroperbenzoic acid, which is most commonly used for such a reaction, there is a problem in that the reaction should be carried out at a low temperature of about -45 ° C in order to minimize the generation of by-products. Despite these efforts, by-products as described above are produced and complex purification processes are additionally required to remove them.

대한민국특허등록 제559169호는 반응식 2의 합성공정을 실시예에 구체적으로 제시하고 있으며 이 방법에서는 화학식 (V)로 표시되는 2-[4-(3-메톡시프로폭시)-3-메틸피리딘-2-일메틸티오]1H-벤즈이미다졸의 산화반응에서 m-클로로퍼벤조산 대신에 산무수물 또는 금속촉매의 존재하에 과붕산염을 사용하거나, 염기의 존재하에 N-할로숙신이미드나 1,3-디할로-5,5-디메틸히단토인 등을 사용하고 있다. Korean Patent Registration No. 559169 specifically presents a synthesis process of Scheme 2 in the Examples, in which 2- [4- (3-methoxypropoxy) -3-methylpyridine- is represented by Formula (V). In the oxidation of 2-ylmethylthio] 1H-benzimidazole, perborate is used in the presence of an acid anhydride or a metal catalyst instead of m-chloroperbenzoic acid, or N-halosuccinimide or 1,3- in the presence of a base. Dihalo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin and the like are used.

상기 반응식 2에서 제시된 합성방법이 현재까지 알려진 화학식 (V)로 표시되는 2-[4-(3-메톡시프로폭시)-3-메틸피리딘-2-일메틸티오]1H-벤즈이미다졸의 산화반응 들 중 가장 우수한 방법으로 반응조건에 따라 라베프라졸이 66.6~91.8%의 수율로 얻어진다. Oxidation of 2- [4- (3-methoxypropoxy) -3-methylpyridin-2-ylmethylthio] 1H-benzimidazole represented by the general formula (V) Among the reactions, the best method is to obtain a labeprazole in 66.6 ~ 91.8% yield depending on the reaction conditions.

대한민국특허출원 2003-7010217호(테바 파마슈티컬 인더스트리즈 리미티드)에서는 화학식 (V)로 표시되는 2-[4-(3-메톡시프로폭시)-3-메틸피리딘-2-일메틸티오]1H-벤즈이미다졸의 산화반응을 개선하기 위하여 촉매량의 바나듐 아세틸아세토네이트와 t-부틸 히드로페록사이드(TBHP)를 사용하여 화학식 (I)로 표시되는 라베프라졸을 79%의 수율로 얻고 있으나 여전히 불순물이 함께 얻어지는 문제점을 가지고 있다. In Korean Patent Application No. 2003-7010217 (Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Limited), 2- [4- (3-methoxypropoxy) -3-methylpyridin-2-ylmethylthio] 1H represented by the formula (V) To improve the oxidation of benzimidazole, the catalytic amount of vanadium acetylacetonate and t-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) was used to obtain rabeprazole represented by formula (I) in a yield of 79%, but still impurities This has a problem obtained together.

대한민국특허출원 2002-7011987호(에스티브 퀴미카 에스.에이.)에서도 화학식 (V)로 표시되는 2-[4-(3-메톡시프로폭시)-3-메틸피리딘-2-일메틸티오]1H-벤즈이미다졸을 촉매량의 암모늄몰리브데이트와 과탄산나트륨을 사용하여 화학식 (I)로 표시되는 라베프라졸을 81%의 수율로 제조하고 있으나 이 방법 또한 선행기술들에서의 문제점을 여전히 내포하고 있다. 2- [4- (3-methoxypropoxy) -3-methylpyridin-2-ylmethylthio] represented by the general formula (V) also in Korean Patent Application No. 2002-7011987 (Estim Chimica S.A.) Although 1H-benzimidazole is prepared with a catalytic amount of ammonium molybdate and sodium percarbonate, rabeprazole represented by formula (I) in a yield of 81%, but this method still poses a problem in the prior arts. have.

대한민국특허출원 2002-7013675호는 반응식 3과 같이 피리딘 환의 4번 위치에 있는 니트로기를 알콕시기로 변환하여 화학식 (I)로 표시되는 라베프라졸을 제조하는 새로운 방법을 제시하고 있다. 그러나 이 방법은 알콕시기를 도입하는 반응에서 생성물의 수율이 매우 낮다는 문제점이 있다. Korean Patent Application No. 2002-7013675 proposes a novel method for preparing rabeprazole represented by Formula (I) by converting a nitro group at position 4 of the pyridine ring to an alkoxy group as in Scheme 3. However, this method has a problem in that the yield of the product in the reaction for introducing an alkoxy group is very low.

한국특허출원 2003-7015941호(얀센 파마슈티카 엔.브이.)는 화학식 (V)로 표시되는 2-[4-(3-메톡시프로폭시)-3-메틸피리딘-2-일메틸티오]1H-벤즈이미다졸을 m-클로로퍼벤조산과 같은 통상의 산화제로 산화시킨 후 화학식 (VII)로 표시되는 부산물을 염기성 수용액으로 추출하여 제거함으로써 라베프라졸을 제조하는 방법을 제시하고 있다. 이 방법으로 화학식 (VII)로 표시되는 부산물을 일부 제거할 수는 있으나, 그 공정이 매우 복잡하고 수율 또한 크게 낮아진다는 문제점이 있다. 결국 이 발명의 내용은 m-클로로퍼벤조산와 같이 통상 사용하는 산화제의 경우 화학식 (V)로 표시되는 화합물의 산화반응에서 얼마나 많은 부산물을 생성하고 결국 얼마나 많은 문제점을 야기하는지를 잘 설명해주고 있다. Korean Patent Application No. 2003-7015941 (Jansen Pharmatica N. V.) is 2- [4- (3-methoxypropoxy) -3-methylpyridin-2-ylmethylthio] represented by the formula (V). A method of preparing labeprazole is provided by oxidizing 1H-benzimidazole with a conventional oxidizing agent such as m-chloroperbenzoic acid and then extracting and removing the by-product represented by the formula (VII) with a basic aqueous solution. This method can remove some of the by-product represented by the formula (VII), but the problem is that the process is very complicated and the yield is also significantly lower. After all, the contents of the present invention well explain how many by-products are generated in the oxidation reaction of the compound represented by the formula (V) and eventually cause many problems in the case of a commonly used oxidant such as m-chloroperbenzoic acid.

이에 본 발명자들은 공지된 방법보다 간편한 방법으로 높은 수율로 라베프라졸 및 그의 중간체를 제조하는 방법을 개발하고자 하였다.Therefore, the present inventors have attempted to develop a method for preparing rabeprazole and its intermediates in a high yield in a simpler manner than known methods.

특히 화학식 (VI)으로 표시되는 2-4-(3-메톡시프로폭시)-3-메틸피리딘-2-일메틸술피닐-1H-벤즈이미다졸 N-옥사이드나 화학식 (VII)로 표시되는 2-4-(3-메톡시프로폭시)-3-메틸피리딘-2-일메틸설포닐-1H-벤즈이미다졸과 같은 부산물은 최종적으로 원하는 생성물인 화학식 (I)로 표시되는 라베프라졸과 물리적 성질이 비슷하여 재결정과 같은 일반적인 정제방법으로는 제거되기가 어려우므로, 본 발명자들은 반응 단계에서부터 이와 같은 부산물이 적게 생성되는 조건을 찾는데 중점을 두고 연구하였다. In particular 2-4- (3-methoxypropoxy) -3-methylpyridin-2-ylmethylsulfinyl-1H-benzimidazole N-oxide represented by formula (VI) or 2 represented by formula (VII) By-products, such as -4- (3-methoxypropoxy) -3-methylpyridin-2-ylmethylsulfonyl-1H-benzimidazole, are physically associated with rabeprazole represented by formula (I), which is the final desired product. Since the properties are similar and difficult to remove by a general purification method such as recrystallization, the present inventors focused on finding a condition in which such by-products are produced from the reaction step.

그 결과 본 발명자들은 화학식 (II)으로 표시되는 2-히드록시메틸-4-(3-메톡시프로폭시)-3-메틸피리딘 또는 그 염에 포스포러스 트리브로마이드와 화학식 (IV)로 표시되는 2-메르캅토-1H-벤즈이미다졸을 가하는 경우 염기를 전혀 사용하지 않고도 라베프라졸의 중간체인 화학식 (V)로 표시되는 2-[4-(3-메톡시프로폭시)-3-메틸피리딘-2-일메틸티오]1H-벤즈이미다졸을 고 수율로 얻을 수 있음을 발견하였다. 또한 화학식 (V)로 표시되는 2-[4-(3-메톡시프로폭시)-3-메틸피리딘-2-일메틸티오]1H-벤즈이미다졸을 반응용매 및 벤젠셀레닌 산과 트리알킬아민의 혼합촉매 하에서 과산화수소로 산화시키면 화학식 (I)로 표시되는 라베프라졸이 고 수율로 얻어짐을 알게 되었다. 통상적으로 과산화수소 반응의 촉매로 사용되는 산들이 염기의 존재하에서는 반응이 정상적으로 진행되지 않은 것에 비추어 볼 때 본 기술에서 사용한 벤젠셀레닌 산은 예외적으로 이러한 반응에 적합한 특성을 지니고 있음을 발견할 수 있었다. As a result, the present inventors found that 2-hydroxymethyl-4- (3-methoxypropoxy) -3-methylpyridine or salt thereof represented by formula (II) and phosphorus tribromide represented by formula (IV) When mercapto-1H-benzimidazole is added, 2- [4- (3-methoxypropoxy) -3-methylpyridine represented by the formula (V) which is an intermediate of rabeprazole without using any base. It was found that 2-ylmethylthio] 1H-benzimidazole can be obtained in high yield. In addition, 2- [4- (3-methoxypropoxy) -3-methylpyridin-2-ylmethylthio] 1H-benzimidazole represented by the formula (V) may be reacted with a reaction solvent, benzeneselenic acid and trialkylamine. It was found that the oxidation of hydrogen peroxide under a mixed catalyst afforded rabeprazole represented by formula (I) in high yield. In view of the fact that acids normally used as catalysts for hydrogen peroxide reaction did not proceed normally in the presence of a base, it was found that the benzene selenic acid used in the present technology is exceptionally suitable for this reaction.

본 발명에 따르면, 염기를 전혀 사용하지 않고도 반응을 효과적으로 진행시킬 수 있으며, 2단계 공정을 거치는 종래의 반응 공정과는 달리 별도의 분리 공정이 필요 없는 1단계 공정만으로 공지의 방법보다 높은 수율로 화학식 (V)로 표시되는 2-[4-(3-메톡시프로폭시)-3-메틸피리딘-2-일메틸티오]1H-벤즈이미다졸을 제조할 수 있다. 또한, 본 발명에 따르면, 상기 화합물(V)을 벤젠셀레닌 산과 트리알킬아민의 혼합촉매 하에서 과산화수소로 산화시켜 고 수율로 라베프라졸을 제조함으로써, 화학식 (VI)으로 표시되는 2-4-(3-메톡시프로폭시)-3-메틸피리딘-2-일메틸술피닐-1H-벤즈이미다졸 N-옥사이드나 화학식 (VII)로 표시되는 2-4-(3-메톡시프로폭시)-3-메틸피리딘-2-일메틸설포닐-1H-벤즈이미다졸과 같은 부산물들이 거의 생성되지 않는 간편하고 경제적인 산화 공정을 실시할 수 있다.According to the present invention, it is possible to effectively proceed the reaction without using any base, and unlike the conventional reaction process that goes through a two-step process, only a one-step process does not require a separate separation process in a higher yield than known methods 2- [4- (3-methoxypropoxy) -3-methylpyridin-2-ylmethylthio] 1H-benzimidazole represented by (V) can be prepared.
