Abstract

The invention relates to a synthesis method of methyl 5-hydroxy-2-methyl benzoate. The invention mainly solves the technical problems of disordered reaction process and difficulty in purifying the reaction products in the existing synthesis method. The technical scheme is as follows: the synthesis method of methyl 5-hydroxy-2-methyl benzoate comprises the following steps: sequentially diazotizing and carrying out hydrolysis reaction on methyl 5-amino-2-methyl benzoate which is used as a raw material to obtain a crude product, dissolving the crude product in dichloromethane, washing with water to remove the byproduct 5-hydroxy-2-methylbenzoic acid generated in the reaction liquid so as to obtain a crude methyl 5-hydroxy-2-methyl benzoate product, and recrystallizing with a dichloromethane / n-heptane mixed solvent to obtain the light yellow powder methyl 5-hydroxy-2-methyl benzoate. The methyl 5-hydroxy-2-methyl benzoate obtained by using the method provided by the invention is an important and common medicine intermediate.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The present invention relates to the synthetic method of 5-hydroxyl-2-methylbenzoic acid methyl ester. Background technique: [0002] 5-Hydroxy-2-methylbenzoic acid methyl ester is a kind of comparatively important commonly used drug intermediate, for the preparation of 5-hydroxyl-2-methylbenzoic acid methyl ester, there are literature reports to use 5-amino-2-methyl Benzoic acid is used as a raw material, and the target product is obtained by diazotization, hydrolysis, and re-esterification, and finally the target compound (EP21033620) is obtained by column purification; Chemicalization, hydrolysis, and finally column purification (US6689922). The main drawback of these processes is the need for column purification, which is not suitable for large-scale production. Therefore, finding a suitable post-processing method so that the process can be applied to production on a large scale becomes a key problem to be solved in the present invention. Inve...
