- Method for preparing lorazepam
-
The invention relates to a method for preparing lorazepam. The method comprises the following steps: subjecting a ketone substrate as shown in a formula I, glacial acetic acid, potassium acetate, potassium persulfate and iodine to a reaction under heating and stirring conditions to obtain an acetoxy substrate as shown in a formula II; dropwise adding a sodium hydroxide solution into a mixture of ethanol and the acetoxy substance as shown in the formula II, carrying out stirring to realize a complete reaction, performing filtering to obtain a filter cake, and reacting the filter cake with ethylacetate and a citric acid solution to obtain a crude lorazepam product; and crystallizing the crude lorazepam product by using ethanol and ethyl acetate in sequence. The invention further relates tothe pharmaceutical application of larazepam prepared by using the method. The larazepam is particularly used for treating or preventing anxiety, epilepsy, convulsion, sedation and hypnosis. The methoddisclosed by the invention has excellent technical effects as described in the specification.

- Efficient synthesis of 3-hydroxy-1,4-benzodiazepines oxazepam and lorazepam by new acetoxylation reaction of 3-position of 1,4-benzodiazepine ring
-
Simple, efficient, and scalable syntheses of 3-hydroxy-1,4-benzodiazepines, oxazepam (1), and lorazepam (2) were developed. The syntheses are based on the new acetoxylation reaction of the 3-position of the 1,4-benzodiazepine ring. The reaction involves iodine (20-50 mol %)-catalyzed acetoxylation in the presence of potassium acetate (2 equiv) and potassium peroxydisulfate (1-2 equiv) as a stoichiontetric oxidant affording the corresponding 3-acetoxy-1,4- benzodiazepines in good-to-high yields. The latter were converted by selective saponification to 3-hydroxy-1,4-benzodiazepines of very high purity (>99.8%) in an overall yield of 83% (oxazepam) and 64% (lorazepam).

- A METHOD OF PURIFICATION OF LORAZEPAM
-
A new method of purification of Lorazepam is disclosed that consists in removing products of synthesis, decomposition products, water or other solvent that forms a solvate with Lorazepam, by crystallization or stirring in an organic solvent of the ether, ester or ketone type. Lorazepam prepared via this method can be utilized in the pharmaceutical industry for the manufacture of pharmaceuticals.

- Process for preparing pure crystalline lorazepam
-
The present invention provides a process for preparing crystalline lorazepam substantially free of bound solvent from a lorazepam alcohol solvate or hydrate by suspending the lorazepam solvate in an organic medium selected from ethyl acetate, cyclohexane, dichloromethane, toluene and mixtures thereof. This process is useful in producing the anti-anxiety and sedative agent lorazepam in increased yields. A process for converting lorazepam lower alcohol solvates to lorazepam hydrate is also disclosed.

- 3-FLUOROBENZODIAZEPINES
-
Benzodiazepines that bear a fluorine substituent in the metabolically active C-3 position were prepared by the reaction of diethylaminosulfur trifluoride (DAST) with the corresponding 3-hydroxybenzodiazepines.These products are surprisingly stable to hydrolysis and possess potent antianxiety and muscle-relaxing properties.

- Lorazepam and oxazepam esters. Hydrophobicity, hydrolysis rates and brain appearance
-
Six prodrug-type esters of oxazepam and lorazepam, which are potent benzodiazepine tranquillizers, were synthesized in 2-14C-labelled form. Pharmacokinetics of the compounds administered i.p. to mice were compared with respect to the effect of the acyl groups on the brain appearance of the esters and the parent drugs. Brain accumulation of the compounds administered was characterized by the areas under the brain-to-blood concentration ratio-time functions (AUQ). The rates of brain penetration were characterized by the slope of the correlation between i.v. dose and 1-min brain levels. These slopes as well as AUQ values depended upon hydrophobicity (R[M]) according to an optimum function. The lag times of the brain appearance of the parent drugs showed a minimum at about the same R[M] at which AUQ values were maximal. The rates of brain appearance of the parent compounds correlated with the hepatic microsomal hydrolysis rate of their esters.
