<Industrial Application Field> The present invention relates to a method for obtaining hydrocortisone hemisuccinate, which is useful as a pharmaceutical agent such as an anti-shock agent, from hydrocortisone in a short time and with high purity. <Prior Art and Problems to be Solved by the Invention> Conventionally, hydrocortisone hemisuccinate has been produced by reacting hydrocortisone and succinic anhydride in a pyridine solvent at room temperature. However, in such a method, the reaction time is 20
It takes a long time, and there is also the problem of the by-product of dihydrocortisone succinate (di-HC・S), which is an impurity, and the product is highly colored, requiring complicated processes such as using activated carbon for purification. came. The present inventors improved the drawbacks of these conventional methods,
As a result of intensive studies to obtain hydrocortisone hemisuccinate with high purity in a short period of time, the present invention was achieved. <Means for solving the problems> That is, the gist of the present invention is to prepare hydrocortisone in an aprotic polar solvent using the following general formula (). (In the formula, R 1 , R 2 and R 3 are each independently,
Represents an alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, and adjacent
R 1 , R 2 or R 3 may be combined with each other to form a ring. ) using an aliphatic tertiary amine or N,N-dimethylaminopyridine as a catalyst,
The present invention relates to a method for producing hydrocortisone hemisuccinate, which comprises reacting it with succinic anhydride. Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in detail by showing specific examples. The catalyst used in the present invention is represented by the above general formula (), and specific examples of such catalysts include triethylamine, N,N-diethylmethylamine,
Tripropylamine, N-methylpyrrolidine, N
-Methylpiperidine and the like. Among these, triethylamine is particularly preferred. In addition, examples of the aprotic polar solvent used in the present invention include tetrahydrofuran (THF), N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP), N,N-dimethylformamide,
Examples include acetone, diglyme, etc., especially
THF is preferred. In carrying out the present invention, succinic anhydride in an amount of 1.5 to 2 times the molar amount of hydrocortisone and a catalyst in a molar amount of 0.5 to 3 times the amount of hydrocortisone are dissolved in a solvent of 3 to 7.5 times the amount of hydrocortisone. . Next, hydrocortisone as a starting material is added to the above mixed solution at 25±2°C and reacted at 20 to 30°C for 0.5 to 6 hours to obtain the desired hydrocortisone hemisuccinate. The progress of the reaction and the end point can be checked by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). After completion of the reaction, the target compound of the present invention is purified by neutralizing with an acid (hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, etc.), over-washing the precipitated solid, and recrystallizing the obtained crude crystals. Next, the present invention will be explained in more detail with reference to Examples, but the present invention is not limited in any way by these Examples unless the gist is exceeded. Example 1 A four-neck flask was replaced with N2 , and succinic anhydride [5.5 g, 5 mmole] and triethylamine [7.7 ml,
55 mmole] and tetrahydrofuran [75 ml] and dissolve completely at 25±2°C. Next, hydrocortisone [10 g, 27.5 mmole] is added all at once at a temperature of 25±2°C. After the addition, the reaction was carried out for 3.5 hours at a reaction temperature of 25±2°C, and it was confirmed by HPLC that the conversion rate was 99.5% or higher. After the reaction is complete, add sulfuric acid aqueous solution [sulfuric acid
Add 300 ml of water containing 55 mmole to the reaction solution dropwise at a temperature of 10°C or below. After completion of the dropwise addition, the precipitated crystals were aged at 10±2° C. for 2 hours, washed with water, and dried under vacuum at a drying temperature of 70° C. to obtain 12.5 g of crude hydrocortisone hemisuccinate. Add this crude hydrocortisone hemisuccinate [10.0g, 21.6mmole] to acetone [7.0.9ml] for 40 minutes.
After dissolving at °C, heat filtration was performed using a 0.2 μm membrane filter. After washing the filter with acetone [23.6ml] and combining it with the liquid, add 35 ml of this liquid.
Purified water [189.0 ml] was added dropwise while maintaining the temperature at °C.
The slurry containing the precipitated crystals was aged at 15°C for 2 hours, the crystals were collected, washed and dried under reduced pressure to obtain 9.50 g of purified hydrocortisone hemisuccinate (yield: 95.0).
%) was obtained. IR (cm -1 ): 3500, 2900, 1720, 1620 Optical rotation [α] D = 149° (EtOH) Example 2 Succinic anhydride 2.75g N-methylpyrrolidone 50ml and triethylamine 3.83ml in a four-necked flask
Add hydrocortisone after cooling to 20℃
Add 5.0g. After stirring this solution at 25°C for 3.5 hours,
Analysis by HPLC confirmed that the conversion rate was 100%. After cooling this solution, a hydrochloric acid aqueous solution prepared by diluting 2.43 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid with 75 ml of water is added dropwise to collect the precipitated crystals. The crystals were washed with water and dried under reduced pressure to obtain 6.38 g of crude hydrocortisone hemisuccinate. Example 3 0.55 g of succinic anhydride, N, N in a four-necked flask
- Add 0.67 g of dimethylaminopyridine and 15 ml of tetrahydrofuran, cool to 20°C, and then add 1.0 g of hydrocortisone. After stirring this solution at 20° C. for 6 hours, it was confirmed by HPLC that the conversion rate was 99.7%. After cooling this solution, a hydrochloric acid aqueous solution prepared by diluting 0.49 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid with 30 ml of water is added dropwise to collect the precipitated crystals. The crystals were washed with water and dried under reduced pressure to obtain 1.17 g of crude hydrocortisone hemisuccinate. Example 4 Add 0.55 g of succinic anhydride, 0.77 ml of triethylamine, and 15 ml of acetone to a four-neck flask, and add 20 ml of acetone.
After cooling to °C, add 1.0 g of hydrocortisone. This solution was stirred at 25° C. for 6 hours, and the conversion rate was confirmed to be 99.4% by HPLC. After cooling this solution, a hydrochloric acid aqueous solution prepared by diluting 0.67 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid with 30 ml of water is added dropwise to collect the precipitated crystals. The crystals were washed with water and dried under reduced pressure to obtain 1.19 g of crude hydrocortisone hemisuccinate. Reference Example 11.04 g of succinic anhydride and 72 ml of pyridine were mixed and stirred, and 8.0 g of hydrocortisone was added at 20°C. After reacting this mixed solution at 20±2° C. for 24 hours, the conversion rate was measured by HPLC and was found to be about 100%. After cooling this solution to below 10℃, 25.92ml of concentrated sulfuric acid
Add dropwise a sulfuric acid aqueous solution diluted with 176 ml of water, and heat at 10℃.
After aging at ±2°C for 2 hours, the precipitated crystals are collected. The crystals were washed with water and dried under reduced pressure to obtain 10.16 g of crude hydrocortisone hemisuccinate.
This crude crystal was purified by the same purification method as in Example 1 above. IR and optical rotation are as in Example 1.
