Embodiment 1

[0020] Embodiment 1 Preparation of obeticholic acid crystal form I:

[0021] Add 4.5g of obeticholic acid into 35ml of n-butyl acetate, heat up to reflux, stir for 2 hours, add 100ml of heptane, filter with suction when the temperature is lowered to room temperature, rinse the filter cake with heptane, and dry the filter cake by air blowing. 4.1 g of obeticholic acid in I crystal form was obtained, with a yield of 91% and a purity of 99%.

[0022] The DSC spectrum of crystal form I is as follows figure 1 As shown, there is an endothermic peak at 94±2.0°C.

[0023] The XRPD spectrum of crystal form I (radiation source is CuKα1) is figure 1 As shown, there are diffraction peaks at 2θ values ​​of 4.2, 6.3, 12.4, and 15.8, and the error range of 2θ values ​​is ±0.2.

Embodiment 2

[0024] Embodiment 2 Preparation of obeticholic acid crystal form II:

[0025] Dissolve 30g of obeticholic acid in NaOH (8.3% NaOH, 45.0ml) solution, slowly add HCl (0.22mmol, 450ml) solution to the solution at 30-40°C, and adjust the pH to 2-5 , slowly cooled to room temperature, filtered the precipitate, and dried to obtain 28.4 g of crystal form II as a solid, with a yield of 94.6% and a purity of 99%.

[0026] The DSC spectrum of crystal form II is as follows image 3 As shown, there is an endothermic peak at 99±2.0°C.

Embodiment 3

[0027] Embodiment 3 Preparation of obeticholic acid crystal form I:

[0028] Add 10g of obeticholic acid into 5ml of toluene, heat up to reflux, stir for half an hour, add 50ml of petroleum ether under reflux, stir for 2 hours, and suction filter when cooling down to room temperature, and rinse the filter cake with cyclohexane. The filter cake was blast-dried to obtain 9.3 g of obeticholic acid crystal form I with a yield of 93% and a purity of 99%.

[0029] The DSC spectrum of crystal form I is as follows figure 1 As shown, there is an endothermic peak at 94±2.0°C.

[0030] The XRPD spectrum of crystal form I (radiation source is CuKα1) is figure 2 As shown, there are diffraction peaks at 2θ values ​​of 4.2, 6.3, 12.4, and 15.8, and the error range of 2θ values ​​is ±0.2

Abstract

The invention relates to polymorphic substances of obeticholic acid and a preparation method thereof. According to the invention, a novel crystallization method is adopted to prepare obeticholic acid polymorphic substances. The preparation method for a crystal form I comprises the following steps: dissolving obeticholic acid in a good solvent, adding a certain proportion of a poor solvent when complete dissolving is just realized under the condition of refluxing, decreasing a temperature, carrying out cooling so as to allow a crystal to be precipitated, and carrying out filtering and drying. The preparation method for a crystal form II comprises the following steps: dissolving obeticholic acid in an organic solvent, carrying out refluxing, decreasing a temperature, carrying out cooling so as to allow a crystal to be precipitated, and carrying out filtering and drying. The method provided by the invention has the following advantages: the crystallized obeticholic acid polymorphic substances are stable; meanwhile, operation is simple and practicable, and a conventional solvent can be used; the disadvantages of complex steps, difficult crystallization, poor repeatability and instability of a disclosed preparation method are overcome; and the method is suitable for industrial production.

Description

1. Technical field: [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of medicine, and in particular relates to a polymorph of obeticholic acid and a preparation method thereof. 2. Background technology: [0002] Obeticholic acid, also known as 6-ethylchenodeoxycholic acid, is a new derivative of chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) in human primary bile acids, and is a farnesoid derivative X receptor (FXR ) natural ligands. Obeticholic acid is a farnesoid X receptor agonist, which indirectly inhibits the gene expression of cytochrome 7A1 (CYP7A1) by activating farnesoid X receptor. Since CYP7A1 is the rate-limiting enzyme of bile acid biosynthesis, obeticholic acid can inhibit bile acid synthesis for the treatment of primary biliary cirrhosis and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. [0003] Obeticholic acid was successfully developed by Intercept Pharmaceutical Company of the United States. It is the first drug developed for the treatment of cholestatic liver disease in two decad...
