Embodiment 1

[0027] 700.0 g (6.47 mol) of o-phenylenediamine and 889.0 ml (10.09 mol) of n-butyric acid were stirred evenly, and heated to reflux (at a temperature of 110° C.) for 0.5 hours to react. Part of the reaction liquid was distilled off until the temperature rose to 180°C, and the reaction was continued for 0.5 hours. Cool to 90°C. Pour it into 3.9L aqueous solution of 85 grams of sodium hydroxide, cool to room temperature and stir for crystallization for 1 hour. After filtering, washing with water and drying, 1023.4 g of light red 2-propylbenzimidazole was obtained, the yield was 98%, and the HPLC purity was 99.35%. Recrystallized from ethyl acetate (1:5g:ml) to obtain 956.9 g of off-white solid 2-propylbenzimidazole with a yield of 92% and a HPLC purity of 99.86%. mp159-160°C (melting point was measured with a capillary melting point apparatus, document J.Amer.Chem.Soc., 1937, 59:178-179 reported: mp157.0-157.5°C).

Embodiment 2

[0032] Stir 700.0 g of o-phenylenediamine and 1185.3 ml of n-butyric acid evenly, and heat to reflux for 6 hours. Evaporate 100ml of aqueous n-butyric acid, then add 100ml of n-butyric acid, repeat 5 times. Then the reaction solution was distilled off until the temperature rose to 150° C., and the reaction was continued for 2 hours. The reaction liquid was directly poured into 3.9 L aqueous solution of 85 g of sodium hydroxide, cooled to room temperature and stirred for crystallization for 1 hour. Filtrate, wash with water, and dry to obtain 1027 g of light red 2-propylbenzimidazole with an HPLC purity of 99.12% and a yield of 99%.

Embodiment 3

[0034] 700.0 g (6.47 mol) of o-phenylenediamine and 889.0 ml (10.09 mol) of n-butyric acid were evenly stirred, and heated to reflux for 2 hours. Evaporate 200ml of aqueous n-butyric acid, add sodium chloride to the aqueous n-butyric acid until saturated, then separate the layers, add the n-butyric acid layer to the reaction solution, and heat to reflux for 2 hours. Then the reaction solution was distilled off until the temperature rose to 180° C., and the reaction was continued for 2 hours. The reaction liquid was directly poured into 3.9 L aqueous solution of 85 g of sodium hydroxide, cooled to room temperature and stirred for crystallization for 1 hour. Filtrate, wash with water, and dry to obtain 1030 g of light red 2-propylbenzimidazole with an HPLC purity of 99.45% and a yield of 99%.

Abstract

The invention provides a method for preparing 2-propylbenzimidazole. In the method, the 2-propylbenzimidazole is prepared by cyclization of n-butyric acid and o-phenylenediamine. The method comprises the following steps: mixing the n-butyric acid and the o-phenylenediamine, and heating to react the n-butyric acid with the o-phenylenediamine; and distilling partial n-butyric acid and water generated in the reaction process, and continuously heating to make the o-phenylenediamine completely reacted so as to obtain the product 2-propylbenzimidazole. In the method, the n-butyric acid has the functions of a reaction substrate, a solvent and a water entrainer simultaneously. The method has good effect, the yield of the product is nearly quantified, the purity of the product is over 99 percent, and the posttreatment is simple.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a preparation method of the synthetic intermediate 2-propylbenzimidazole of the antihypertensive drug olmesartan medoxomil. Background technique [0002] 2-Propylbenzimidazole can be used as a synthetic intermediate of the antihypertensive drug olmesartan medoxomil, and the synthetic method of the compound is reported in the following literature. [0003] In 1937, Pool WO recorded in J.Amer.Chem.Soc., 1937,59:178-179 that n-butyric acid and equimolar o-phenylenediamine were heated to reflux for 30 minutes, then hot ethanol was added, and hydrogen oxidized Potassium neutralizes the unreacted n-butyric acid, and then cools and crystallizes to obtain the 2-propylbenzimidazole product. There are many shortcomings in this method, mainly comprising: (1) raw material reaction is incomplete, and reaction yield is not high. (2) It is inconvenient to neutralize unreacted n-butyric acid with potassium hydroxide in hot ethanol solution. ...
