The present invention relates to a method for preparing 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid.
1,4,7,10-Tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid (DOTA) is an important chemical intermediate and pharmaceutical intermediate, the structure of which is shown in the following formula.
In 1976, Stetter Hermann and Wolfram Frank first reported on the synthesis of DOTA (Angewandte Chemie International Edition in English 15(11): 686) by the reaction of 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane (cyclen) with chloroacetic acid in an alkaline medium, followed by purification by Dowex-2×8 ion exchange resin to remove inorganic salts to obtain a qualified product.
In 1980, JF Desreux used sodium hydroxide as a base, wherein the reaction temperature was 80° C., and then the pH value was adjusted to 2.5 by acidification to obtain the product, and DOTA was purified by Dowex 50W-X4 ion exchange resin (Inorg. Chem. 1980, 19, pp. 1319-1324.).
In 1982, R. Delgado synthesized DOTA by controlling the pH value of alkaline medium at 10 (Talanta, Vol. 29, pp. 815-822, Issue 10, 1982), and then the pH value was adjusted to 2 with hydrochloric acid to obtain the product by freezing, which did not involve a purification step.
In 1991, Clarke and A. Martel (Inorganica Chimica Acta, 190, pp 27-36) carried out the reaction between cyclen and bromoacetic acid in the pH value range of 11.2-11.3, wherein, after the salts were removed by the ion exchange resin, the filtrate was concentrated, and the pH value was adjusted with hydrochloric acid, followed by purification by recrystallization in hot water to obtain the product.
In WO9905128A1, alkylation and hydrolysis were carried out under alkaline conditions using bromoacetic acid or chloroacetic acid and the respective esters thereof, and the obtained product was purified by ion exchange resin to obtain high-quality DOTA.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,922,862 disclosed a method for purifying the crude product of DOTA and cyclen derivatives, wherein the crude product was dissolved in water and purified by PVP ion exchange resin.
WO2013076743 disclosed that DOTA, diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA), D03A-butrol, BOPTA were adjusted to the pH value to 0.75 with acid to obtain the hydrochloride salts, followed by recrystallization to remove the inorganic salts, and the pH value was adjusted to 1.5-3.0 by A26 OH ion exchange resin and concentrated to obtain the respective product.
WO2014114664A1 disclosed a method for synthesizing and purifying DOTA and the salts thereof, wherein, the of DOTA was synthesized by the reaction between cyclen and an alkylating agent (bromoacetic acid, chloroacetic acid, iodoacetic acid) at a pH value more than 13. After completion of the reaction, the pH value was adjusted to 3 or less with acid, and the crude product was obtained by heating and cooling. Different types of ion exchange resins were used for the purification to obtain high-quality products, and HPLC and IC methods were used for carrying out the process monitoring and product analysis of DOTA.
WO2015117911A1 disclosed a method for purifying DOTA, wherein, the crude product was synthesized according to the techniques reported in the literature, and then purified by nanofiltration to obtain the respective product.
Through the analysis and summary of the above literatures and patents, in the prior techniques of DOTA synthesis and purification methods, the synthesis steps are basically similar, and basically there are three purification methods. First, the purification step uses ion exchange resin, the disadvantages of which are the requirement of concentrated water removal operation in the subsequent process, the requirement of the pretreatment and activation of the ionic resins, and the high consumption of energy and time in the later concentration process. Second, high-quality DOTA product is obtained by low-temperature freezing method, and the temperature requirement is relatively strict, and the operation is not easy. Third, it is difficult for typical enterprises to implement non-generic technology purification, such as nanofiltration technology.
