Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing clopidogrel. The conventional synthetic methods have the disadvantages of poor environmental protection, disadvantageous industrial production, low optical purity of final products and high cost. The technical scheme adopted by the invention comprises the following steps of: performing a reaction on a compound, namely, R,S-o-chloromandelic acid and methanol to produce R,S-chloromandelic acid methyl ester; performing the reaction on the R,S-chloromandelic acid methyl ester and benzene sulfonyl chloride under the action of an alkaline catalyst to produce 2-benzenesulfonic acyloxy-2(2-chlorphenyl) methyl acetate; performing an SN2 substitution reaction on the 2-benzenesulfonic acyloxy-2(2-chlorphenyl) methyl acetate and 4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-thiophene pyridine hydrochloride under an alkaline condition to produce R,S-clopidogrel free alkali; resolving the R,S-clopidogrel free alkali in resolving solvent by using a resolving agent; and dissociating the resolved R,S-clopidogrel free alkali to prepare the clopidogrel. In a synthetic route of the invention, reaction conditions are temperate, used reaction substrates are environmentally friendly, reaction yield in each step is high, the optical purity of a final product is up to over 99.5 percent, and pollution-free production can be realized.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of chemistry, in particular to a preparation method of clopidogrel. Background technique [0002] Clopidogrel (Clopidogrel), chemical name (S)-α-(2-chlorophenyl)-6,7-dihydrothieno[3,2-c]pyridine-5(4H)-acetic acid methyl ester, English The name is methyl(+)-(S)-α-(o-2chlorophenyl)-6,7-dihydrothieno[3,2-c]pyridine-5(4H)-acetate, a platelet inhibitor, produced by France Sano The Philippine (Sanofi) company successfully researched and developed in 1986, its sulfate is clinically used, and its trade name is Plavix. The structural formula of clopidogrel is as follows: [0003] [0004] There are many synthetic methods for clopidogrel. US Patent US5036156 reports that methyl α-bromo(2-chloro)phenylacetate is substituted with 4,5,6,7-tetrahydrothieno[3,2-c]pyridine for SN2 The reaction generates (±)-clopidogrel, which is then resolved with (-)-camphorsulfonic acid in acetone to obtain (+)-clopidogrel. This route has a relatively...
