Clocortolone pivalate is a synthetic corticosteroid that can be used to cure corticosteroid-responsive dermatoses. Three previously unknown impurities detected by HPLC were isolated by semi-preparative LC. Based on the NMR and MS spectral data, these were identified as (6R,9R,16R)-9-chloro-6β-fluoro-11β,21-dihydroxy-16α-methylpregna-1,4-diene-3,20-dione-21-pivalate (Impurity I), (9R,16R)-9-chloro-4-fluoro-11β,21-dihydroxy-16α-methylpregna-1,4-diene-3,20-dione-21-pivalate (Impurity II) and (9R,16R)-9-chloro-6α-fluoro-11β,21-dihydroxy-16α-methylpregna-1,4-diene-3,20-dione-11,21-dipivalate (Impurity III). The possible mechanism of the formation of the impurities is discussed.
倍他米松戊酸酯是一种合成的皮质类固醇,可用于治疗皮质类固醇反应性皮肤病。通过高效液相色谱法检测到三种以前未知的杂质,并通过半制备液相色谱法将其分离。根据核磁共振和质谱谱数据,这些被鉴定为(6R,9R,16R)-9-氯-6β-氟-11β,21-二羟基-16α-甲基孕甾-1,4-二烯-3,20-二酮-21-戊酸酯(杂质 I),(9R,16R)-9-氯-4-氟-11β,21-二羟基-16α-甲基孕甾-1,4-二烯-3,20-二酮-21-戊酸酯(杂质 II)和(9R,16R)-9-氯-6α-氟-11β,21-二羟基-16α-甲基孕甾-1,4-二烯-3,20-二酮-11,21-二戊酸酯(杂质 III)。讨论了杂质形成的可能机制。
