Deskripsi
Based on a foregoing gram-scale laboratory process, an efficient scale-up preparation process of 5,2′-dibromo-2,4′,5′-trihydroxydiphenylmethanone (<b>LM49-API</b>), a new acute pyelonephritis candidate drug, was developed and validated aiming to reduce by-products and achieve better impurity profiles. Meanwhile, the polymorph of <b>LM49-API</b> and process-related impurities were also investigated. Ultimately, the optimal reaction conditions were verified by evaluating the impurity profiles and their formation during the synthesis. Six process-related impurities were synthesized and identified, being useful for the quality control of <b>LM49-API</b>. Its finalized preparation process was further validated at 329−410 g scale-up production in 53.4−57.1% overall yield with 99.95−99.98% high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) purity, and it is currently viable for commercial production. <b>LM49-API-imC</b> and <b>LM49-API-imX</b> were identified as the main single impurities in <b>LM49-API</b>, with the content controlled to be less than 0.03%.
