Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing N-benzyl-3-pyrrolidone. The method comprises the following steps of: (a) synthesizing 3-benzylamine ethyl propionate; (b) synthesizing 3-(N-carbethoxy methylene) benzylamine ethyl propionate; (c) synthesizing N-benzyl-4-carbethoxy-3-pyrrolidone; and (d) synthesizing N-benzyl-3-pyrrolidone. The preparation method of the N-benzyl-3-pyrrolidone has the advantages of fewer synthesis steps and high yield.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of organic synthesis, and in particular relates to a preparation method of N-benzyl-3-pyrrolidone. Background technique [0002] 3-Aminopyrrolidine is an important fine chemical intermediate, widely used in the synthesis of fine chemicals, and its various derivatives are intermediates for the synthesis of pesticides and pharmaceuticals such as insecticides and antibacterials. The optically active acetylated derivatives of 3-aminopyrrolidine can be used in the production of agricultural chemicals and pharmaceutical active substances (eg vinylpyrrolidone-cephalosporin derivatives). [0003] In patent 200710011673.7, the preparation method is adopted: benzylamine is first condensed with chloroacetic acid, esterified with ethanol, then condensed with acrylic acid, reacted with sodium ethoxide, ring closed, and decarboxylated to obtain the target product: N-benzyl-3-pyrrolidone. This synthetic method not only has many ste...
