Problems solved by technology

[0006] This route has the following disadvantages: (1) trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride is expensive and toxic; (2) in the process of forming enol, it is accompanied by the elimination of 3-position acetic acid to generate 3,4-double bond
[0013] The above-mentioned two foreign synthesis routes have relatively large disadvantages. Because the (3-pyridyl)-diethylborane and triphenylphosphine palladium chloride used in the reaction are expensive, the cost is relatively high when applied to industrial production

Abstract

The invention provides a method for preparing (3beta)-17-(3-pyridyl)-androstane-5,16-diene-3-alcohol acetate. According to the method, the traditional Grignard addition reaction is adopted, pyridine groups are introduced in the presence of a catalyst such as cerous chloride, the method is low in raw material cost, available in raw materials, economical, practical, environment-friendly, convenient and simple in post-treatment, the reaction process is easily and continuously operated, the product quality and yield can be improved, and industrial production is promoted.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of medicinal chemistry, and in particular relates to a method for preparing (3β)-17-(3-pyridyl)-androst-5,16-dien-3-ol acetate (abiraterone acetate) (Equation 1) new method. Background technique [0002] Abiraterone acetate is an orally effective irreversible inhibitor of CYP17 enzyme developed by Centocor Ortho, which was approved by the US FDA on April 28, 2011. Zytiga is used in combination with prednisone to treat castration-resistant prostate cancer. On July 28, 2011, Zytiga was approved by Health Canada. In men with prostate cancer, the hormone testosterone stimulates tumor growth, and drug or surgical treatment can reduce testosterone production or block the effects of testosterone. But even with low testosterone levels, prostate cancer can continue to grow. Abiraterone targets and inhibits the activity of the enzyme cytochrome P45017 A1, which regulates testosterone production, reducing testosterone produc...
