  • Publication number: 20230257411
    Abstract: A synthesis method for selamectin was developed, where doramectin is oxidized by manganese dioxide, oximated and de-sugared in one-step by an aqueous solution of hydroxylamine hydrochloride, and then selectively reduced in the presence of Wilkinson's catalyst and hydrogen to obtain selamectin. Doramectin is oxidized to a carbonyl group firstly, so that the generation of impurities during the subsequent reaction is reduced; t-butyl alcohol with a larger steric hindrance is used as a solvent, so that transesterification impurities are avoided; the hydrogenation is implemented in the final step, and the crude product is recrystallized before the hydrogenation reaction, so that the cost is greatly reduced. The method of the present application with an overall yield of 57%. The purity of product was 97.11%. All impurities meet the requirements of Pharmacopoeia. The present application is a simpler, more economical and more efficient synthesis method, and is suitable for industrial production.

  • Publication number: 20220356156
    Abstract: The present application provides the preparation and use of a 3,4-dihydroxyl-N-(1?-benzyl-2?-hydroxyethyl)-2-methyl pyridine chloride. According to the present application, a 3,4-dihydroxyl-N-(1?-benzyl-2?-hydroxyethyl)-2-methyl pyridine chloride is directly synthesized by a one-step reaction, and the compound includes a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. 3,4-dihydroxyl-N-(1?-benzyl-2?-hydroxyethyl)-2-methyl pyridine chloride has been proved to have a good antiparkinsonian activity by animal tests, and it is a class of novel antiparkinsonian drug candidates.

  • Patent number: 6861523
    Abstract: The solid-phase synthesis of individual 1,3-disubstituted and 1,3,5-trisubstituted-1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triones and libraries thereof from a resin is described. Reaction of resin-bound amino acids with isocyanates yields resin-bound ureas, which further react with chlorocarbonyl isocyanate to selectively afford the resin-bound 1,3-disubstituted-1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triones. Selective alkylation at the N-5 position of the resin-bound 1,3-disubstituted-1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triones produces a trisubstituted triazinetrione. The products are cleaved from their solid support and obtained in good yield and purity.
