Description

Technical Field



[0001] The present invention relates to a crystal of a cyclic phosphonic acid sodium salt and a method for producing the crystal.

Background Art



[0002] The cyclic phosphonic acid sodium salt (a sodium salt of 9-octadecenoic acid(9Z)-(2-hydroxy-2-oxo-2λ5-1,2-oxaphosphoran-4-yl)methyl ester) represented by the following formula (1) is a compound, typically referred to as 2ccPA.



[0003] 2ccPA is known to have a potent analgesic action (Patent Literature 1) and is also expected to serve as an anticancer agent because of its infiltration-inhibitory activity on cancer cells (Patent Literature 2), an osteoarthritis therapeutic agent because of its accelerated production of hyaluronic acid (Patent Literature 3), or other agents.

[0004] Non-patent Literature 3 reports on the inhibition of transcellular tumor cell migration and metastasis by novel carba-derivatives of cyclic phosphatidic acid.

[0005] Non-patent Literature 4 discloses a specific synthesis of enantiopure 2-carbacyclic phosphatidic acid and effects of its chirality on biological functions.

[0006] Non-patent Literature 5 reports on the synthesis and pharmacological evaluation of the stereoisomers of 3-carbacyclic-phosphatidic acid.

[0007] Non-patent Literature 6 relates to the pharmacological evaluation of a novel cyclic phosphatidic acid derivative 3-cyclic phosphatidic acid (3-cPA).

[0008] Non-patent Literature 7 reports on the generation of polymorphs, hydrates, solvates and amorphous solids as well as polymorphisms in pharmaceutical solids.

[0009] Patent Literature 5 relates to certain cancerous metastasis inhibitors containing carbacyclic phosphatidic acid.

[0010] 2ccPA has traditionally been produced by the production method shown in the following reaction scheme-1 (Patent Literature 2 and 4 and Non-patent Literature 1 and 2).



[0011] Specifically, iodine compound (5a), which is obtained by the production method disclosed in Non-patent Literature 2, is first reacted with trimethyl phosphite to prepare dimethyl phosphonate (6a). Subsequently, p-toluenesulfonic acid (p-TsOH) is allowed to act on compound (6a) to obtain compound (8a). After oleic acid is introduced to compound (8a) to prepare compound (9a), demethylation is performed, and further a sodium salt is formed, thereby producing 2ccPA.

[0012] However, because of the absence of optimization of the reaction conditions for each step and the need for purification by silica gel column chromatography in each step, the total yield of 2ccPA in this production method, obtained by performing the 5 steps described above, is as low as 18.7%, when calculated from the yields disclosed in the literature. This indicates that the method is not suitable for synthesis on a large scale. In addition, the use of bromotrimethylsilane (TMSBr) in the demethylation step generates hydrogen bromide as a by-product, which makes the reaction system strongly acidic, making the product prone to decomposition. In actuality, the yield in the demethylation step is as low as 38%.

[0013]  In the final step, compound (10a) is formed into a sodium salt using a sodium hydroxide aqueous solution to induce 2ccPA. However, because freeze-drying is performed without purification, strongly basic sodium hydroxide may come to be mixed with the solid of 2ccPA. Thus, decomposition of 2ccPA by sodium hydroxide is unavoidable, causing a storage stability problem.

[0014] Therefore, there has been a demand for the development of a method for producing a crystal of 2ccPA that is convenient, and that produces a high-purity crystal exhibiting excellent storage stability at a high yield, as compared with the traditional known method.

[0018]  Another object of the invention is to provide a method for producing the crystal of 2ccPA that is convenient and that produces the crystal at a high yield.

Solution to Problem



[0019] The present inventors conducted extensive research to achieve the objects, and produced at a high yield a cyclic phosphonic acid ester, which is a precursor of 2ccPA, performing only one-time purification by silica gel column chromatography, and successfully induced 2ccPA from the cyclic phosphonic acid ester without using a strong acid or strong base.

[0020] In addition, the inventors found that the thus-produced crystal of 2ccPA is excellent in storage stability and can achieve the objects. The present invention was completed on the basis of these findings.

[0021] Specifically, the present invention is as defined in the claims.

Advantageous Effects of Invention



[0022] The crystal of 2ccPA according to the present invention is excellent in storage stability, and does not significantly decompose when stored for a long period of time.

[0023]  Following the production method of the present invention, a high-purity crystal of 2ccPA can be produced at a high yield in a simple manner.

[0024] Specifically, the production method of the present invention includes a novel production method, and, in particular, the present invention can produce a cyclic phosphonic acid ester, which is a precursor of 2ccPA, without performing isolation and purification in each step (Telescoping).

[0025] The production method of the present invention also reduces the risk of decreases in purity without using a strong acid or strong base, and produces a crystal of 2ccPA excellent in stability from the cyclic phosphonic acid ester in a simple manner.

[0051] The amount of the sodium halide for use is typically 1 to 5 moles, preferably 1 to 3 moles, and more preferably 1 to 1.5 moles, per mole of the compound represented by formula (9).

[0052]  The organic solvent for use in step (H) is not particularly limited, as long as the solvent does not adversely affect the reaction. Examples of the organic solvent for use include ketone solvents (e.g., branched or linear ketone and cyclic ketone, such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl butyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone, DIBK (diisobutyl ketone), and cyclohexanone), alcohol solvents (e.g., methanol and ethanol), ether solvents (e.g., diethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, tetrahydrofuran (THF), and 1,4-dioxane), aromatic hydrocarbon solvents (e.g., benzene, toluene, and xylene), aliphatic or alicyclic hydrocarbon solvents (e.g., n-pentane, n-hexane, cyclohexane, and petroleum ether), ester solvents (e.g., ethyl acetate), and halogenated hydrocarbon solvents (e.g., methylene chloride, chloroform, and 1,2-dichloroethylene).

[0056] The reaction temperature is typically 0 to 120°C, preferably 50 to 120°C, and more preferably 70 to 120°C.

[0057] The reaction time is typically 0.1 to 100 hours, preferably 0.5 to 50 hours, and more preferably 1 to 24 hours.

[0058] After completion of the reaction, from the obtained reaction mixture, an excess amount of the reagent (e.g., the sodium halide), the unreacted starting material compound, and other components are removed by a typical separation technique, such as concentration, crystallization, and filtration to isolate the target 2ccPA represented by formula (1).

2-2. Step (I)



[0059] Step (I) is a step of concentrating a solution containing the 2ccPA obtained in step (H) under reduced pressure, or cooling the solution containing the 2ccPA obtained in step (H) to precipitate the crystal.

[0060] The reduced pressure in step (I) is not particularly limited, as long as the crystal can be precipitated under the pressure. The reduced pressure is typically lower than the atmospheric pressure.

[0061] The cooling temperature in step (I) is not particularly limited, as long as the crystal can be precipitated at the temperature. The cooling temperature is typically lower than the temperature of the solution after the reaction in step (H), and preferably 0 to 30°C, and more preferably 10 to 25°C.

[0062] The cooling time is not particularly limited, and typically 0.1 to 100 hours, preferably 0.5 to 50 hours, and more preferably 1 to 2 hours.

[0063] The obtained crystal can be used in the subsequent step (J).

2-3. Step (J)



[0064] Step (J) is a step of dissolving the crystal obtained in step (H) and step (I) in water and/or an organic solvent to obtain a solution.

[0065] The water and/or organic solvent for use in step (J) can be any water and/or organic solvent that can dissolve the crystal obtained in step (I). Examples of the organic solvent include alcohol solvents, and in particular, methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, isopropyl alcohol, and 1-butanol are preferable.

[0066] The amount of the water and/or organic solvent for use can be suitably selected from a wide range. For example, the amount of the water and/or organic solvent is typically 0.5 to 20 liters, and preferably 0.5 to 2 liters, per mole of 2ccPA.

[0067] In the use of a mixture solvent of water and an organic solvent, the mixing ratio is not particularly limited. The mixing ratio of water to an organic solvent is preferably 1:99 to 99:1, and more preferably 30:70 to 70:30.

[0068] The temperature at which the crystal is dissolved is not particularly limited, and is typically 0 to 100°C, preferably 10 to 80°C, and more preferably 20 to 60°C.

[0069] The time period for step (J) is not particularly limited, and is typically 0.1 to 100 hours, preferably 0.5 to 50 hours, and more preferably 1 to 2 hours.

2-4. Step (K)



[0070] Step (K) is a step of adding a poor solvent to the solution obtained in step (J) to perform recrystallization.

[0071] The poor solvent for use in step (K) may be any solvent that can precipitate a crystal from the solution obtained in step (J). Specifically, the poor solvent can be any solvent that is poorer than the solvent used in step (J) (good solvent). Examples of poor solvents include ketone solvents (e.g., acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, and methyl isobutyl ketone), ether solvents (e.g., diethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, tetrahydrofuran (THF), and 1,4-dioxane), aromatic hydrocarbon solvents (e.g., benzene, toluene, and xylene), aliphatic or alicyclic hydrocarbon solvents (e.g., n-pentane, n-hexane, cyclohexane, and petroleum ether), ester solvents (e.g., methyl acetate, ethyl acetate, isopropyl acetate, and butyl acetate), halogenated hydrocarbon solvents (e.g., methylene chloride, chloroform, and 1,2-dichloroethylene), and alcohol solvents having 3 or more carbon atoms (e.g., 1-propanol).

[0072] The solvent for use in step (K) may be any solvent that is poorer than the solvent used in step (J) (good solvent).
