The invention discloses a low-cost, high-yield 1-(mercaptomethyl)cyclopropylacetic
acid production process, and relates to the technical field of pharmaceutical production. The low-cost, high-yield 1-(mercaptomethyl)cyclopropylacetic
acid production process comprises the following steps that S1, intermediate cyclopropyl sulfinate is prepared, S2, intermediate
hydroxymethyl cyclopropyl acetonitrileis prepared, S3, intermediate1-(methanesulfonate)cyclopropyl
acetonitrile is prepared, S4, intermediate1(isothioureido) cyclopropyl
acetonitrile hydrochloride is prepared, and S5, 1-(mercaptomethyl)cyclopropylacetic acid is prepared. According to the low-cost, high-yield 1-(mercaptomethyl)cyclopropylacetic
acid production process, the production efficiency is greatly improved, the
energy consumption is reduced, the reaction materials in each step are easy to obtain, the operation is simple, and the low-cost, high-yield 1-(mercaptomethyl)cyclopropylacetic acid production process is suitable for industrial production; and the problem of 1-( mercaptomethyl)cyclopropylacetic acid synthesis is effectively solved, the synthesis cost and sales price of
montelukast sodium drug are reduced, the
treatment level of
asthma is improved, and the construction of domestic medical and health care is accelerated.
