PROCESS FOR PRODUCING SQUALAMINE

摘要

PURPOSE: A process for producing squalamine is provided, thereby the squalamine can be cheaply and simply produced due to the use of cheap 3-keto-bisnocholenol as an initial compound. CONSTITUTION: The process for producing squalamine of formula(1) comprises the steps of: protecting a 3-keto group of 3-keto-bisnocholenol of formula(2) with an ethylenekital group and converting primary alcohol at C22 into an aldehyde group to produce 3-ethylenekital-23,24-bisnochola-5-en-22-al of formula(3); aldol condensing the compound of formula(3) to produce inone compound, hydrogenating the inone compound in the presence of platinum catalyst to produce 3-ethylenekital-cholest-5-en-24-on of formula(4); allyl oxidizing the compound of formula(4) to produce 3-ethylenekital-cholest-5-en-7,24-dion; selectively reducing double bond of the compound of formula(5) at C5 to produce 5alpha-cholestan and stereo selectively reducing a kito group at C7 and treating it with hydrochloric acid to produce 3-kito-5-alpha-cholestan-7,24-diol of formula(6); protecting hydroxy at C24 of the compound of formula(6) with t-butyldimethylsilyl, and converting kito at C3 to 3alpha-amino to produce 3alpha-amino-7,24-dihydroxycholest-5-en of formula(7); reacting the compound of formula(7) with polyamine aldehyde of formula(8) to produce a compound of formula(9); and treating the compound of formula(9) with acid to remove silly and a carbamate protecting group and to insert sulfone into the C24 site.
