Problems solved by technology

[0007] In the patent US8765948B2, 2-(2-fluoro-3-methoxyphenyl)-ethyl glyoxylate is used as raw material, reduced by sodium borohydride, brominated by methanesulfonyl chloride and tetraethylammonium bromide, and then processed by zinc Powder catalysis and substitution reaction, followed by aminoalkylation and substitution reaction, and finally acid deprotection to obtain the elagolix intermediate. As shown in the following steps, the key starting materials of this route are expensive and difficult to obtain, resulting in high process costs. Not suitable for industrial production, low application value

Abstract

The invention relates to the field of pharmacy, in particular to a method for efficiently synthesizing an elagolix intermediate. The method takes 6-methyluracil as a starting material, and comprises five reactions of aminoalkylation, halogenation, coupling, benzyl halide substitution and deprotection. The synthetic method has the advantages that the starting material is cheap and easy to obtain, areaction reagent is friendly to the environment, the reaction steps are simple, the aftertreatment is convenient, the overall yield is higher, and the method is especially suitable for industrial mass production and has larger application value.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of pharmacy, in particular to a method for efficiently synthesizing an elagolix intermediate. Background technique [0002] Elagolix is ​​an orally active non-peptide gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor antagonist (GnRH-a) developed by AbbVie in collaboration with Neurocrine Biosciences Inc (NBIX) for the treatment of endometriosis. Compared with the GnRH-a preparations already on the market, which are all injections, as an oral GnRH-a, it has greater advantages in terms of ease of use and patient acceptance. In addition, antagonists have theoretically more advantages than agonists. Better safety, faster onset, shorter medication time, and great potential for future clinical application. [0003] Patent CN1819829A uses 2-fluoro-6-(trifluoromethyl)benzonitrile as the starting material, first undergoes borane reduction, then condenses with urea, then cyclizes with diketene, and then undergoes bromination and aminoa...
