Description
Verfahren zur Herstellung von 16 a-Oxy-20-oxo-pregnanen Es ist an sich bekannt, Sauerstoff in die 7.6a-Stellung von in 16,17-Stellung ungesät tigten, in 21-Stelluug unsubstituierten 20- Keto-pregnanen durch Anlagerung eines Alkohols an die 16,17-ständige Doppelbin dung einzuführen.
Die Erfindung betrifft nun ein Verfahren zur Herstellung von 16a Oxy-20-oxo-pregnanen, welche in 3-Stellung eine freie oder geschützte Oxy- oder Oxo- gruppe und in 21-Stellung eine freie oder ge schützte Oxygruppe aufweisen, das dadurch gekennzeichnet ist,
da.ss man Arylcarbinole an in 3- und 21-Stellung entsprechend substi tuierte -d16-20-Oxopregnene anlagert und aus den erhaltenen 16 - Arylmethoxypregnanen die Arylmethylgruppe hydrogenolytisch ab spaltet.
Ausser einer freien Oxy- oder Oxogruppe können die Verbindungen in 3-Stellung z. B. eine veresterte Oxygruppe oder eine ketali- sierte Oxogruppe enthalten. Ferner können ausserdem noch weitere Substituenten vor handen sein, z. B. eine Oxy- oder Oxogruppe in 11-Stellung, und Doppelbindungen z. B. ausgehend vom Kohlenstoffatom 5.
Die erfindungsgemäss erhältlichen Ver bindungen sind besonders wertvoll, weil es sich um eine neue Klasse von Stoffen mit einer für gewisse amorphe Nebennieren extrakt-Fraktionen typischen Wirkung bzw. um Zwischenprodukte zur Herstellung solcher Stoffe handelt. Die Anlagerung der Arylcarbinole kann in neutralem Medium oder -unter der Einwir kung alkalischer bz-w. saurer Katalysatoren, wie von @Carbonaten, Alkalihydroxyden, Mine- ralsäuren, Sulfonsäuren,
Bortrifluörid usw., vorgenommen 'werden. Als Arylcarbinole fallen z. B. Benzylalkohol, p-1VIethoxy-benzyl- alkoUol, p-Tolyl-carbinol, Diphenylcarbinol oder Triphenylcarbinol in Betracht. Die sol- cheimassen in 16a-Stellung eingeführte Aryl- methoxygruppe, z.
B. eine Benzyloxyb uppe, lässt sieh durch vorsichtige Hydrierung z. B. mit Hilfe von Palladium-Calciumcarbonat- Katalysator spalten, wobei Verbindungen mit freier 16-Oxygruppe erhalten werden.
Sofern die Ausgangsstoffe neu sind, lassen sie sich nach bekannten Methoden gewinnen. Sofern die Verfahrensprodukte Zwischen produkte sind, kann man sie nach an sich bekannten Methoden in physiologisch wirk same Verbindungen, 'vorzugsweise solche, die die 44-3-KetogruppierLmg aufweisen, -um- wandeln. Insbesondere kann eine Acyloxy- gruppe in 3-Stellung durch gelinde Einwir kung alkalischer oder saurer Mittel,
beispiels weise von Hydrogencarbonatlösung oder ver dünnter Mineralsäure, hydrolysiert werden. In erhaltenen Verbindungen mit freier 3-Hy- droxylgruppe lässt sich letztere in an sich be kannter Weise durch dehydrierende Mittel in eine Oxogruppe umwandeln. Hierzu dienen z. B.
Chromsäure in Eisessig, Chrom-(VI )- salze in saurem Medium, Chromtrioxyd- Pyridin-Komplex, Permanganate, Metall- Alkoholate oder -Phenolate in Gegenwart von Ketonen, N-Bromacetamid, beispielsweise in Dioxan-Wasser oder Pyridin-t-Butanol, Hypo- halogenite, Erhitzen mit Metallen oder Metall oxyden,
wie Kupferoxyd. usw. Eine Doppel bindung in 5,6-Stellung lässt sich vorüber gehend durch Anlagerung von Halogen oder Halogenwasserstoff oder durch Überführung in i-Steroide schützen.
Schliesslich lässt sich in im Ring A ge sättigte Reaktionsprodukte mit freier 3-Oxo- grappe in a-Stellung zu .derselben in bekann ter Weise eine Doppelbindung einführen. Vorteilhaft wird hierzu bromiert, mit einem Hydrazyd, wie Semicarbazid, umgesetzt und das Hydrazon mittels einer Carbonylverbin- dung, wie Brenztratibensäure, gespalten.
In den folgenden Beispielen besteht zwi schen Gewichtsteil und Volumteil die gleiche Beziehung wie zwischen Gramm und Kubik zentimeter. Die Temperaturen sind in Celsius graden angegeben.
Beispiel <I>1</I> Eine Lösung von 10 Gewichtsteilen d5,ls- 21-Acetoxypregnadien-3ss-ol-20-on in 50 Vo- lumteilen alkoholfreiem Chloroform wird mit 5 Gewichtsteilen Diphenylcarbinol und 3 Ge wichtsteilen entwässertem, fein gemahlenem Calciumsulfat versetzt und in Gegenwart einer katalytischen Menge Chlorwasserstoff- Gas 24 Stunden bei 20 gerührt.
Dann putscht man vom Calciumsulfat ab und wäscht die Lösung mit Wasser, trocknet sie und dampft sie im Vakuum ein. Der Rückstand wird an 300 Gewichtsteilen Ahiminiiunoxyd chromato- grapbiert, wobei man aus den Benzol-Äther- und Äther-Eluaten ,das 45-16-Diphenyl- methoxy-21-acetoxy-pregnen-3ss-ol-20-on er hält.
1 Gewichtsteil desselben wird in 20 Vo- lumteilen Essigester gelöst und in Gegenwart von Palladiltm-:Caleiumcarbonat-Katalysator bis mir Aufnahme von 1 Mol Wasserstoff hy driert. Den Katalysator putscht man ab und dampft die Essigester-Lösung im VakunLm, wobei das d5-3ss,16-Dioxy-21-acetoxy-pregnen- 20-on erhalten wird.
Statt das 45-16-Diphenylmethoxy-21-acet- o-xy-pregnen-3f ol-20-on zuerst hydrogenoly- tisch zu spalten, kann diese Verbindung auch z.
B. mittels Metallalkoholat oder -phenolat in einem Keton oder besonders vorteilhaft durch Oxydation mit Chromsäure unter vor übergehendem Schutz der 5,6-Doppelbindlung in bekannter Weise zuerst zum d4-16-Di- phenylmethoxy.:;21; - acetoxy-,pregg en;
-#3,20Fdion dehydriert und dieses anschliessend hydro- genolytisch zum d4 -16 - Oxy - 21- acetoxy - pregnen-3,20-dion gespalten werden. Letzteres lässt sich ,durch milde Hydrolyse in d4-16,21- Dioxy-pregnen-3,20-dion überführen, das leicht in 16-Stellung Wasser abspaltet.
<I>Beispiel 2</I> Eine Lösung von 10 Gewichtsteilen d4.is- 21-Acetoxy-pregnadien-3,20-dion in 50 Vo- lumteilen alkoholfreiem Chloroform wird mit 4 Gewichtsteilen p-iVIethoxy-benzylalkohol und 4 Gewichtsteilen entwässertem und fein zermahlenem Caleiumstilfat in Gegenwart katalytischer Mengen von Chlorwasserstoff- Gas 24 Stunden bei 20 gerührt.
Das Calcium- sulfat putscht man dann ab, wäscht das Fil trat mit Wasser, trocknet es und dampft es im Vakuum ein. Das erhaltene Öl wird an 300 Gewichtsteilen Aluminiumoxyd ehromato- graphiert, wobei man aus den Pentan Benzol- und Benzol-Eluaten das d4-16-(p-Methoxy- benzyloxy)-,21-a,cetoxy-pr-egnen-3,20-dion ge winnt.
2 Gewichtsteile dieser Verbindung werden in 100 Volumteilen absolutem Benzol gelöst, mit 5 Volumteilen Äthylenglykol und 0,1 Ge wichtsteil p-Toluolsulfonsäure versetzt. Dann werden innert 5 Stunden 50 Volumteile Lö sungsmittel a,bdestilliert, wobei das Voliuuen des Reaktionsgemisches durch stetige Zugabe von absolutem Benzol konstant gehalten wird. Dann giesst man auf verdünnte Natrium bikarbonat-Lösung, trennt ab und wäscht nochmals mit Wasser.
Aus der getrockneten Benzollösung gewinnt man durch Eindampfen das rohe d5-3-Äthylendioxy-16-(p-methoxy- benzyloxy)-21-acetoxy-pregnen-20-on. 1 Gewichtsteil der genannten Verbindung löst man in 20 Volumteilen Essigester, ver setzt die Lösung mit 0,2 Gewichtsteilen eines Palladium-Calciumcarbonat-Katalysators und hydriert bis zur Aufnahme von 1 Mol Wasser stoff. Die Suspension wird dann abgenutscht. Das Filtrat dampft man im Vakuum ein.
Durch Erhitzen von 0,2 Gewichtsteilen die ser Verbindung in 30 Vohunteilen 50proz. wässriger Essigsäure auf 90-95 während 45 Minuten und anschliessendes Eindampfen im Vakuum erhält man einen öligen Rückstand, aus dem man das d4-16-Oxy-21-a,cetoxy- pregnen-3,20-dion gewinnt.
Durch Verseifung mit Natriumbikarbonat- Lösung in Methanol erhält man das d4-16,21 Dioxy-pregnen-3,20-dion, welches nach Um lösen aus Aceton und Methanol bei 203 bis 205 schmilzt. [a] D = -f-114 (in Äthanol) ; 11"1Y 241 my, s = 16300 (in Äthanol).
Diese Verbindung bildet ein Diacetat, wel ches zwar stabiler als die freie Verbindung ist, aber ebenfalls eine gegen Säure und Alkali empfindliche Verbindung darstellt und nach Umlösen aus Aceton-Petroläther-Gemi- sehen bei 150-153 schmilzt; [a]D = -i-113 (in Äthanol).
Process for the preparation of 16 a-oxy-20-oxo-pregnanes It is known per se to transfer oxygen to the 7.6a-position of 20-keto-pregnanes which are unsaturated in 16,17-position and unsubstituted in 21-position by addition of a To introduce alcohol to the 16.17 double bond.
The invention now relates to a process for the preparation of 16a-oxy-20-oxo-pregnanes which have a free or protected oxy or oxo group in the 3-position and a free or protected oxy group in the 21-position, which is characterized ,
that aryl carbinols are added onto -d16-20-oxopregnenes which are correspondingly substituted in the 3- and 21-positions and the arylmethyl group is split off hydrogenolytically from the 16-arylmethoxypregnanes obtained.
In addition to a free oxy or oxo group, the compounds in the 3-position can, for. B. contain an esterified oxy group or a ketalized oxo group. Furthermore, other substituents can also be present, for. B. an oxy or oxo group in the 11-position, and double bonds z. B. starting from carbon atom 5.
The compounds obtainable according to the invention are particularly valuable because they are a new class of substances with an effect typical of certain amorphous adrenal extract fractions or are intermediates for the production of such substances. The addition of the aryl carbinols can take place in a neutral medium or under the influence of alkaline or alkaline media. acidic catalysts, such as carbonates, alkali hydroxides, mineral acids, sulfonic acids,
Boron trifluoride, etc., can be 'made'. As aryl carbinols, for. B. benzyl alcohol, p-1VIethoxy-benzyl alcohol, p-tolyl carbinol, diphenyl carbinol or triphenyl carbinol into consideration. The aryl methoxy group introduced in such a way in the 16a position, e.g.
B. a Benzyloxyb uppe, can see through careful hydrogenation z. B. cleave with the aid of a palladium-calcium carbonate catalyst, compounds with a free 16-oxy group are obtained.
If the starting materials are new, they can be obtained using known methods. If the products of the process are intermediate products, they can be converted into physiologically active compounds, preferably those which have the 44-3-keto groups, by methods known per se. In particular, an acyloxy group in the 3-position can be caused by the mild action of alkaline or acidic agents,
example, by hydrogen carbonate solution or dilute mineral acid, are hydrolyzed. In compounds obtained with a free 3-hydroxyl group, the latter can be converted into an oxo group in a manner known per se by dehydrogenating agents. For this purpose z. B.
Chromic acid in glacial acetic acid, chromium (VI) salts in acidic medium, chromium trioxide-pyridine complex, permanganates, metal alcoholates or phenolates in the presence of ketones, N-bromoacetamide, for example in dioxane-water or pyridine-t-butanol, Hypo- halogenites, heating with metals or metal oxides,
like copper oxide. etc. A double bond in the 5,6-position can be temporarily protected by the addition of halogen or hydrogen halide or by conversion into i-steroids.
Finally, in the reaction products saturated in ring A, a double bond can be introduced in a known manner with free 3-oxoggrappa in a-position to the same. For this purpose, brominating is advantageously carried out, reacted with a hydrazide, such as semicarbazide, and the hydrazone is cleaved by means of a carbonyl compound, such as pytratinic acid.
In the following examples, the relationship between part by weight and part by volume is the same as that between grams and cubic centimeters. The temperatures are given in degrees Celsius.
Example <I> 1 </I> A solution of 10 parts by weight of d5, ls- 21-acetoxypregnadien-3ss-ol-20-one in 50 parts by volume of alcohol-free chloroform is mixed with 5 parts by weight of diphenylcarbinol and 3 parts by weight of dehydrated, finely ground calcium sulfate added and stirred in the presence of a catalytic amount of hydrogen chloride gas for 24 hours at 20.
Then you wipe off the calcium sulfate and wash the solution with water, dry it and evaporate it in a vacuum. The residue is chromatographed on 300 parts by weight of ammonium oxide, the 45-16-diphenyl-methoxy-21-acetoxy-pregnen-3ss-ol-20-one being obtained from the benzene-ether and ether eluates.
1 part by weight of the same is dissolved in 20 parts by volume of ethyl acetate and hydrogenated in the presence of Palladium carbonate catalyst until 1 mol of hydrogen is absorbed. The catalyst is popped off and the ethyl acetate solution is evaporated in vacuo, the d5-3ss, 16-dioxy-21-acetoxy-pregnen-20-one being obtained.
Instead of first cleaving the 45-16-diphenylmethoxy-21-acet-o-xy-pregnen-3f ol-20-one hydrogenolytically, this compound can also, for.
B. by means of metal alcoholate or phenolate in a ketone or particularly advantageously by oxidation with chromic acid with temporary protection of the 5,6 double bond in a known manner first to d4-16-diphenylmethoxy.:;21; - acetoxy, pregg en;
- # 3,20Fdione is dehydrated and this can then be hydrolyzed to give d4 -16 - oxy - 21- acetoxy - pregnen-3,20-dione. The latter can be converted into d4-16,21-dioxy-pregnen-3,20-dione by mild hydrolysis, which easily splits off water in the 16-position.
<I> Example 2 </I> A solution of 10 parts by weight of d4.is-21-acetoxy-pregnadiene-3,20-dione in 50 parts by volume of alcohol-free chloroform is mixed with 4 parts by weight of p-iVethoxy-benzyl alcohol and 4 parts by weight of dehydrated and finely ground calcium silicate in the presence of catalytic amounts of hydrogen chloride gas for 24 hours at 20.
The calcium sulphate is then washed off, the film is washed with water, dried and evaporated in a vacuum. The oil obtained is chromatographed on 300 parts by weight of aluminum oxide, the d4-16- (p-methoxybenzyloxy) -, 21-a, cetoxy-pr-egnen-3.20 from the pentane, benzene and benzene eluates -dion won.
2 parts by weight of this compound are dissolved in 100 parts by volume of absolute benzene, 5 parts by volume of ethylene glycol and 0.1 part by weight of p-toluenesulfonic acid are added. Then 50 parts by volume of solvent a, b are distilled within 5 hours, the volume of the reaction mixture being kept constant by the constant addition of absolute benzene. Then it is poured into dilute sodium bicarbonate solution, separated off and washed again with water.
The crude d5-3-ethylenedioxy-16- (p-methoxybenzyloxy) -21-acetoxy-pregnen-20-one is obtained from the dried benzene solution by evaporation. 1 part by weight of the compound mentioned is dissolved in 20 parts by volume of ethyl acetate, the solution is ver with 0.2 parts by weight of a palladium-calcium carbonate catalyst and hydrogenated until 1 mol of hydrogen is absorbed. The suspension is then suction filtered. The filtrate is evaporated in vacuo.
By heating 0.2 parts by weight of this compound in 30 parts by weight 50 per cent. aqueous acetic acid to 90-95 for 45 minutes and subsequent evaporation in vacuo gives an oily residue from which the d4-16-oxy-21-a, cetoxy-pregnen-3,20-dione is obtained.
Saponification with sodium bicarbonate solution in methanol gives d4-16.21 dioxy-pregnen-3,20-dione, which melts at 203-205 after dissolving from acetone and methanol. [a] D = -f-114 (in ethanol); 11 "1Y 241 my, s = 16300 (in ethanol).
