Phenytoin is an anti-epileptic drug with raw materials and technological advantages
Phenytoin, also known as diphenylhydantoin sodium, with the chemical formula C15H11N2NaO2, is an organic compound. Phenytoin is a white powder in appearance, soluble in ethanol and almost insoluble in water. Phenytoin has anti-arrhythmic, anti-neuralgia, anti-epileptic and other effects, and is widely used in the field of pharmaceutical manufacturing.
In terms of raw materials, benzaldehyde (Ph) is the core raw material of phenytoin. Benzoaldehyde, also known as benzoin aldehyde and benzaldehyde, has a stable molecular structure and is an important chemical raw material. Enzymatic catalysis, benzyl alcohol oxidation, methyl benzoate reduction and microbial oxidation are common preparation methods for benzaldehyde. In recent years, with the advancement of technology, the production capacity of benzaldehyde in China has been expanding, and the output has continued to grow. In 2023, the output of benzaldehyde in mainland China will reach nearly 70,000 tons, a year-on-year increase of nearly 10%. The advantages of raw materials will lay a good foundation for the development of the sodium phenytoin industry in China.
In terms of technology, the preparation methods of sodium phenytoin include phase transfer method, condensation reaction method, etc. The phase transfer method refers to the use of benzaldehyde as raw material, polyethylene glycol 6000 (PEG-6000) as catalyst, and ferric chloride as oxidant, after full reaction, to obtain the finished product, which has the advantages of green environmental protection, low production cost, mild reaction conditions and simple operation process. After years of development, the technical maturity of phenytoin sodium in mainland China has been continuously improved, and local enterprises have reached their large-scale production strength.
According to the "2024-2028 Phenytoin Industry In-depth Market Research and Investment Strategy Suggestion Report" released by the New Thinking Industry Research Center, in terms of application fields, phenytoin, as an anti-epileptic drug, can prevent different types of seizures. Epilepsy is a common neurological disease, including generalized epilepsy, partial epilepsy, myoclonic epilepsy, absence epilepsy, reflex epilepsy and other types, of which partial epilepsy patients account for nearly sixty percent. In recent years, driven by application demand, the market size of anti-epileptic drugs in mainland China has been growing, reaching nearly 4 billion yuan in 2023. Phenytoin is a traditional anti-epileptic drug, and with the rapid development of the downstream industry, it will usher in a broad market prospect.
In terms of market competition, the market participants in the mainland phenytoin sodium are mainly pharmaceutical companies, mainly including Fu'an Pharmaceutical, Sinopharm, Yichuang Pharmaceutical, Bohua Pharmaceutical, Northeast Pharmaceutical, and Fenhe Pharmaceutical. Phenytoin sodium tablets produced by Sinopharm can be used for the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia, generalized tonic-clone twin seizures and persistent seizures, with the advantages of few side effects and fast onset.
Industry analysts said that with the growing demand for anti-epileptic drugs, phenytoin, as its representative product, continues to expand the market space. Benefiting from the abundant supply of raw materials and the improvement of technological maturity, the output and quality of sodium phenytoin in mainland China have been continuously improved. In terms of market competition, there are many enterprises in mainland China that have the production strength of phenytoin, and their market competition is relatively fierce.
