Problems solved by technology

[0016] Although this synthetic route has the advantages of cheap raw materials and short routes, in the preparation of compound three, the yield of formyl groups introduced by the Riemer-Tiemann reaction is only 25% to 30%, which directly affects the yield of the entire synthetic process, and The introduction of 5-methyl uses some expensive drugs
In addition, through Dakin oxidation as a key step, compound three is converted into L-3-hydroxyl-4-methoxy-5-methyl-phenylalanine, and the yield is not very satisfactory (about 50%), which needs to be improved
[0017] It can be seen that the method for preparing L-3-hydroxyl-4-methoxyl group-5-methyl-phenylalaninol / acid compound still has many deficiencies at present, especially from the point of view of industrialization

Abstract

The invention provides a preparation method of amino protected L-3-formyl-4-methoxyl-5-methyl-phenylalanine methyl ester (structural formula is below), highly effectively converts the amino protected L-3-formyl-4-methoxyl-5-methyl-phenylalanine methyl ester into amino protected L-3-hydroxyl-4-methoxyl-5-methyl-phenylalaninol / phenylalanine, and develops a simple and practical new method for synthesizing a L-3-hydroxyl-4-methoxyl-5-methyl-phenylalaninol / phenylalanine compound. The L-3-hydroxyl-4-methoxyl-5-methyl-phenylalaninol / phenylalanine compound is an important intermediate for chirally synthesizing tetrahydroisoquinoline alkaloids with high anti-cancer activity such as Ecteinascidin 743, Saframycin A and Cribrostatin IV. The method overcomes the disadvantages of the prior synthesis, has the advantages of short steps, high yield, cheap raw material, moderate conditions, simple and convenient operation, and easy industrial production, and is a good method for preparing the L-3-hydroxyl-4-methoxyl-5-methyl-phenylalaninol / phenylalanine compound.

Description

Background of the invention [0002] L-3-hydroxy-4-methoxy-5-methyl-phenylalaninol compounds and L-3-hydroxy-4-methoxy-5-methyl-phenylalanine compounds are chiral An important intermediate for the synthesis of marine tetrahydroisoquinoline alkaloids. Many of these alkaloids and their derivatives have shown a high degree of anticancer, antibacterial and other activities, and have attracted much attention in the research fields of chemistry, biology, and medicine. Ecteinascidin 743 [J.Org.Chem.1990, 55, 4512], Saframycin A [Chem.Pharm.Bull.1985, 33, 905], Cribrostatin IV [J.Nat.Prod.2000, 63, 793], etc. belong to this kind of compounds. Among them, Ecteinascidin 743 is the first to be used in Europe and the United States as a highly potential new anticancer drug for the treatment of va...
