Problems solved by technology

Although the route has few steps, the starting material L-2-aminobutyric acid is expensive and the cost is higher
The second is to use n-propionaldehyde as the starting material to prepare the target compound through six steps of Streck reaction, hydrolysis, resolution, esterification, ammonolysis and cyclization. The reaction steps of this method are long and the yield is only 4.7 %, CN1583721A improved this route, taking n-propionaldehyde and sodium cyanide as starting materials, and preparing the target compound through four steps of Streck reaction, hydrolysis, resolution and cyclization. With this method, the product The yield has been improved, but this method uses the highly toxic compound sodium cyanide, which has higher requirements on the safety of operators, the treatment of three wastes, and environmental protection.
However, when the raw material is resolved with vortex (±)-2-aminobutyramide hydrochloride, due to the existence of alkali, such as sodium hydroxide, there are quite a few inorganic salts, such as sodium chloride, sodium tartrate, etc. The product will precipitate out at the same time, causing separation difficulties, and the purity of the obtained product is not high
[0004] In addition, since the biological activity of the (R)-configuration isomer is much lower than that of the (S)-configuration isomer, there is no value for use, and CN1583721A does not no recycling
Therefore, the route yield is low and the cost is high

Abstract

The invention discloses a new synthesizing technique of chiral drug (S)-alpha-ethyl-2-oxo-1-pyrrolidine acetamide ( left Piracetam) intermediate (S)-(+)-2-aminobutanamide hydrochlorate, which comprises the following steps: adopting 2-brobutyrate as initial raw material; aminating; esterifying; ammonolyzing; detaching; looping; obtaining the object compound; making mixed rotary free alkaline (+-)-2-aminobutanamide; adopting half-quantum resolution method to connect chemical detaching salt to evolve salt; removing the detaching agent through alkalization; obtaining the (S)-(+)-2-aminobutanamidehydrochlorate with optical activity; using the mother liquor to make the product. The invention improves the receiving rate and saves the cost of raw material with simply technical operation and low cost, which resolves the resolved mother liquor after racemic action again to reduce the pollution of environment, therefore fitting for industrialized manufacturing.
