Technical field
The present invention provide it is a kind of prepare pregabalin intermediate (R) -3- isobutylglutaric acid monoamides and recycling resolving agent
(R)-phenyl ethylamine method, belongs to field of medicine and chemical technology.
Background technique
Pregabalin (Pregabalin, compound 1) is (S)-with pharmacological activity of 3- aminomethyl -5- methylhexanoic acid
Type isomers, clinic are mainly used for treating peripheral neuralgia and auxiliary therapy limitation partial seizure.Pregabalin
It is the revolutionary drug for the treatment of neurogenic pain that Pfizer company, the U.S. takes the lead in succeeding in developing and apply for the registration of.Puri bar
Woods is a kind of analog of neurotransmitter GABA, insane by inhibiting CNS voltage-dependent ca channel α 2- σ protein subunit to resist
Epilepsy effect, while having good liposoluble performance by blood-brain barrier, preferable anti-epileptic treatment is shown in clinical test
Effect, binding force is 6 times high compared with Gabapentin (compound 2), but dosage is smaller, and the duration is longer, and side effect is also more
It is few.The Pregabalin of in September, 2010 is in Discussion on Chinese Listed, and solving shortage in Chinese market, really effectively simultaneously data are adequately neural
The problem of pathological pain therapeutic agent.As novel psychotherapeutic drugs, Pregabalin is rapid-action, and Small side effects have
The wide prospect of marketing.
Currently, there are mainly two types of the industrialized producing technologies of Pregabalin: chemical synthesis and enzyme process.It industrializes more extensive
Using the former.Wherein, it is obtained based on pregabalin in chemical synthesis with reprocessing after being split using resolving agent.Following two
Synthesis technology is used widely in industrialized production.
[technique 1]
[technique 2]
Technique 1 and technique 2 are torn open using R- phenyl ethylamine (compound (1)) and S-MA (compound (2)) respectively
Point, pregabalin is obtained after treated.It can be recycled through racemization in technique 1 through splitting obtained isomers (compound 6)
It is recycled to its raceme (compound 5), compares technique 2 and show apparent cost advantage.
Pregabalin belongs to the S type isomers of 3- aminomethyl -5- methylhexanoic acid, (R) -3- during its chemical synthesis
Isobutylglutaric acid monoamides and R- phenyl ethylamine are its very important intermediate and resolving agent.That reports on document at present should
Intermediate synthesis and resolving agent recycling route 1 can be described as follows (see attached drawing 1): ((the R) -3- isobutyl group penta of compound 7 in technique 1
Diacid monoamides-(R)-phenyl ethylamine salt) adjusted free acid, crystallization, centrifugation to obtain ((the R) -3- isobutylglutaric acid list of compound 8
Amide), the organic solution of R- phenyl ethylamine is obtained by extraction through organic solvent through the free R- phenyl ethylamine out of alkali tune for centrifuge mother liquor, then
Boiling (extractant) and middle boiling before removing by distillation, finally distillation obtains R- phenyl ethylamine.But it is prepared through the process route
(R) -3- isobutylglutaric acid monoamides contain R- phenyl ethylamine residual, lead to have R- in the Pregabalin crude product of subsequent preparation
Phenylethylamine derivative generation leads to its mass deviation, and synthesize (R) -3- isobutylglutaric acid monoamides yield it is relatively low (about 85~
93%) and the R- phenyl ethylamine rate of recovery is relatively low (being lower than 97%).Meanwhile containing higher organic substance residues in waste water 1, lead to height
Dense high-salt wastewater processing difficulty is larger, and energy consumption is higher, and Determination of Total Nitrogen in Waste Water and COD are in 800~1000mg/L and 50k~80k
Mg/L is horizontal.
Summary of the invention
It prepares pregabalin intermediate (R) -3- isobutylglutaric acid monoamides the object of the present invention is to provide a kind of and returns
The method for receiving resolving agent (R)-phenyl ethylamine, comprising the following steps:
1) (R) -3- isobutylglutaric acid monoamides-(R)-phenyl ethylamine salt is dissolved in the water;
2) under the conditions of 15~45 DEG C, Ionic Membrane is added, after adjusting pH to 11.0~13.0, and protects at such a temperature
Temperature;
3) after keeping the temperature, hydrochloric acid is added under the conditions of 15~45 DEG C, adjusts pH to 6.0~8.0;
4) organic solvent extracting and demixing is added;
5) hydrochloric acid is added under the conditions of 15~45 DEG C in water layer in step 4), after adjusting pH to 1.0~3.0, and in the temperature
Lower heat preservation;
6) after keeping the temperature, 0~15 DEG C of crystallization, rejection filter, drying is cooled to and obtains (R) -3- isobutylglutaric acid monoamides;
7) with after middle boiling, 90~130 DEG C of fractions of collection are recycled (R)-for boiling before organic layer is evaporated under reduced pressure out in step 4)
Phenyl ethylamine.
Organic solvent described in step 4) is selected from: toluene, dimethylbenzene, chloroform and methylene chloride;Extraction times are for 2 times or big
In 2 times.
The volumetric usage of the step 1) water is 3~6ml relative to every g compound 7.
The temperature of the step 1) dissolution is 35~70 DEG C.
The soaking time of the step 2) is 0.5~1h.
The total volume dosage of the step 4) organic solvent is 3ml~20ml relative to every g compound 7.
The soaking time of the step 5) is 0.5~4 hour.
The crystallization time of the step 6) is 1~6 hour.
The vacuum degree of the step 7) vacuum distillation is 0.08~0.10MPa.
Route 2 of the present invention is shown in attached drawing 2.
The present invention is under current safety and environmental protection, upgrading synergy and market keen competition form, with obvious excellent
Gesture: firstly, it is preferentially free to the progress alkali tune of compound 7, and extracted free R- phenyl ethylamine out from water phase using organic solvent
Out, the organic impurities such as R- phenyl ethylamine in route 1 be can avoid to be precipitated with compound 8, and bring the derivative other impurities of subsequent handling into
The phenomenon that occur, to promote compound 8 and subsequent step product quality, increase and adjust pH to neutral operation, it is different to reduce 3-
Butyl glutaryl amine, which decomposes, generates 3- isobutylglutaric acid impurity, effective Improving The Quality of Products.Secondly, organic solvent extracts
In the process, organic impurities a large amount of in water phase can be removed, make after 8 crystallization of compound in the filtrate (waste water 2) of rejection filter total nitrogen and
COD sharp fall meets low density wastewater processing standard, three-protection design efficiency and cost is greatly lowered.Third, the route
Obtained compound 8 and recycling R- phenyl ethylamine yield in route 1 compared to being obviously improved.4th, what which obtained
8 purity of compound is up to 99.7% or more, and recycling R- phenyl ethylamine purity is easy to operate up to 99.5% or more, without complicated point
From the compound 8 and recycling R- phenyl ethylamine that can obtain high-purity.To sum up, the present invention is to provide a safety and environmental protection,
It is simple and convenient, high income to prepare pregabalin intermediate (R) -3- isobutylglutaric acid monoamides and recycling resolving agent (R)-benzene
Ethamine.
