Background technology
Mecobalamin (Methylcobalamin), chemical name: cobalt-α-[α-5,6-dimethylbenzimidazole base]-cobalt-Beta-methyl cobamide, molecular formula: C63H91CoN13O14P, molecular weight: 1344.38 is a kind of deep red crystalline or crystalline powder, odorless, tasteless, water absorbability is strong, sees that light easily decomposes.Mecobalamin is a kind of coenzyme type vitamins B of Japanese Eisai Co., Ltd exploitation
12, be medically mainly used in treatment peripheral nerve disease and the B that is deficient in vitamin
12the megaloblastic anemia caused, with other coenzyme type vitamins Bs
12class medicine is compared, and mecobalamin has good conductivity to nervous tissue, can enter in neurocyte smoothly, promote nucleic acid, protein, lipid metabolism, by stimulating the regeneration of aixs cylinder and sheath, repairing impaired nerve, is that one treats the more effective medicine of peripheral nerve disease.
Up to the present, the chemical synthesis process of mecobalamin mainly contains several below:
(1) to methylate the method (Japanese Patent 45038059) preparing mecobalamin with methyl iodide again with after sodium borohydride reduction Vitral;
(2) to methylate the method (German Patent 2058892) preparing mecobalamin with methyl tosylate again with after sodium borohydride reduction Vitral;
(3) with methylpyridinium iodide mercury or methyl hexafluorosilicic acid amine, hydroxocobalamin is methylated the method (German Patent 2149150) preparing mecobalamin;
(4) under cobalt salt exists, with zinc powder and oxalic acid methyl monoester, the method (German Patent 2255203) methylating and prepare mecobalamin reduced to hydroxocobalamin;
(5) under cobalt salt exists, with zinc powder and methyl oxalate, the method (German Patent 2434967) methylating and prepare mecobalamin reduced to Vitral;
(6) under cobalt or molysite exist, carry out with Trimethylsulfoxonium Iodide or trimethylammonium thionyl bromide the method (European patent 1236737) preparing mecobalamin that methylates again with sodium borohydride reduction Vitral or hydroxocobalamin;
(7) carry out with methylcarbonate the method (European patent WO2006100059) preparing mecobalamin that methylates again with sodium borohydride reduction Vitral;
Some defects of existence all in various degree of several synthetic methods above, method 1, 2 have all used and have had more supervirulent methylating reagent (methyl iodide, p-methyl benzenesulfonic acid methyl esters), method 3, 4, what 5 methylating reagents used had can not buy (oxalic acid methyl monoester on a large scale by business, dimethyl oxalate, methyl hexafluorosilicic acid amine), some environmental pollutions relatively more serious (methylpyridinium iodide mercury), react 6 methylating reagents used and can generate the dimethyl sulfide with environmental pollution in the reaction, the methyl-sulphoxide simultaneously generated is due to high boiling point (189 DEG C), with reasons such as the good consistencies of water, extremely difficulty is removed from reaction system, and easily by product is generated in methylation procedure.There is the shortcomings such as low temperature crystallization yield losses is larger in method 7.
Summary of the invention
The object of the invention is to overcome existing for existing mecobalamin synthetic method shortcoming and defect, thus provide a kind of synthetic method of new mecobalamin.
The synthetic method of mecobalamin of the present invention, comprises the following steps:
A), by Vitral, cobalt chloride hexahydrate is dissolved in deionized water, stirs, and keep reaction solution, temperature is 10-15 DEG C;
B), by sodium borohydride be dissolved in deionized water, keep temperature to be about 0 DEG C;
C), formalin is dissolved in methanol solution;
D), the methanol solution of sodium borohydride aqueous solution, formalin is instilled in the aqueous solution of Vitral, cobalt chloride, stirring reaction simultaneously, keep reacting liquid temperature to be 10-15 DEG C simultaneously;
E), after above step reaction, the PH of regulator solution is 6.0;
F), upper step gained reaction solution obtains filtrate through centrifuging;
G), vacuum concentration walks gained filtrate and obtain concentrated solution;
H), upper step gained concentrated solution obtains crude product mecobalamin through macroporous resin adsorption, washing, acetone-water mixing solutions wash-out, neutral alumina absorption, acetone-water mixing solutions wash-out, crystallization;
I), upper step gained crude product mecobalamin recrystallization obtains fine work mecobalamin.
The present invention is in the initial stage of specific implementation process, keep the temperature of initial action liquid all the time in 10-15 DEG C of interval, because the rising of temperature of reaction system makes formaldehyde and sodium borohydride other reactions occur thus produce to consume when avoiding the methanol solution one kettle way dripping sodium borohydride aqueous solution and formalin at the same time to prepare mecobalamin.
In specific implementation process of the present invention, when dissolving sodium borohydride, the moderate temperature of solvent be kept to remain on about 0 DEG C, avoid in dissolution process because heat release promotes hydroboration sodium and water reaction consumption of boron sodium hydride.
In specific implementation process of the present invention, drip in reaction solution sodium borohydride aqueous solution, formalin methanol solution time, keep drip solution flow rate unanimous on the whole.
The invention provides a kind of method of synthesis mecobalamin newly, carry out reduction by utilizing sodium borohydride and formaldehyde to Vitral to methylate, obtain high yield, highly purified mecobalamin, simultaneously prepare in the process of mecobalamin methylating with the inventive method reduction, avoid the generation of some by products, avoid the application of toxic substance in synthesis, avoid the generation causing environmental pollution gas in building-up process.In reduction methylation procedure, the consumption of formaldehyde can carry out suitable increase or minimizing according to the practical situation of reaction, but best ratio is recommended as: the envelope-bulk to weight ratio of formaldehyde (37-40%) aqueous solution and Vitral is 2.0-3.4:1, the consumption of corresponding borane reducing agent sodium hydride also can carry out pro rata increase or minimizing according to the actual amount of formaldehyde.
