Embodiment 1
[0021] Dissolve 10 g of α-methylaminopropiophenone hydrochloride in 40-50 mL of methanol (more than 99% content), and add 5.5 g of NaBH under stirring 4 , the reducing agent sodium borohydride can be slowly added within 15-30 minutes, it is advisable to control the temperature of the reaction system not higher than 30 ° C, after the addition, continue to stir and react for 30 minutes, after the reaction, the methanol is recovered by distillation under reduced pressure, and the concentrate Add 10% NaOH solution to dissolve it, adjust the pH value of the solution to be greater than 11, and precipitate out after the ephedrine is free, filter, and vacuum-dry to obtain a total of 7.5g of a mixture of (±) ephedrine and (±) pseudoephedrine. The calculated reaction yield of propiophenone is 93.8%, and the ratio of (±) ephedrine and (±) pseudoephedrine is 93.5: 6.5 through liquid chromatography analysis.
Embodiment 2
[0023] Dissolve 20 g of α-methylaminopropiophenone hydrochloride in 100 mL of absolute ethanol, and add KBH under stirring 4 2g, the reducing agent potassium borohydride can be added slowly within 15-30min, it is advisable to control the temperature of the reaction system not higher than 30°C, after the addition, continue to stir and react for 3h, after the reaction is over, recover ethanol by vacuum distillation, concentrate Add 10% NaOH solution to the substance and make it dissolve, adjust the pH value of the solution to be greater than 11, precipitate out after ephedrine is free, filter, and evaporate to dryness to obtain a total of 15.3 mixtures of (±) ephedrine and (±) pseudoephedrine, expressed as α-formazine The calculated reaction yield of aminopropiophenone is 95.6%, and the ratio of (±) ephedrine and (±) pseudoephedrine is 97.1: 2.9 through liquid chromatography analysis.
Embodiment 3
[0025] Dissolve 100 g of α-methylaminopropiophenone hydrochloride in 300 mL of methanol (more than 99% content), and add 9.9 g of KBH under stirring 4 , the reducing agent sodium borohydride can be slowly added within 15-30 minutes, it is advisable to control the temperature of the reaction system not higher than 30 ° C, after the addition, continue to stir and react for 30 minutes, after the reaction, the methanol is recovered by distillation under reduced pressure, and the concentrate Add 10% NaOH solution to make it dissolve, adjust the pH value of the solution to be greater than 11, precipitate out after ephedrine is free, filter, and evaporate to dryness to obtain a total of 76.8g of the mixture of (±) ephedrine and (±) pseudoephedrine. The calculated reaction yield of aminopropiophenone is 96.0%, and the ratio of (±) ephedrine and (±) pseudoephedrine is 94.7:5.3 through liquid chromatography analysis.
