Embodiment 1

[0009] Example 1: Dissolve 150 mg (1.62 mmol) of chloroacetone in 5 mL of N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), and then add 1.62 mmol of S-methylisothiourea (or its phase corresponding to the various salts), 448 mg (3.24 mmol) of K 2 CO 3 , 24 mg (0.16 mmol) of NaI, heated to 80°C, and stirred overnight (12-16 hours). Then the reaction solution was cooled, poured into ice water, extracted with ethyl acetate (100 ml*4), the organic phase was washed twice with saturated brine, the organic phase was combined, and anhydrous Na 2 SO 4 After drying and filtering, the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain 160 mg of crude 4-methyl-2-thiomethyl-1(3)H-imidazole, which was purified by column chromatography to obtain 148 mg of the product, yield: 71.2%.

Embodiment 2

[0010] Embodiment 2: 15 g (162 mmol) of chloroacetone are dissolved in 500 mL of DMF, and then 162 mmol of S-methylisothiourea (or its corresponding various salts) are added successively, 44.8 g (324 mmol ) of K 2 CO 3 , 2.4 g (16 mmol) of NaI, heated to 80°C, and stirred overnight. Then the reaction solution was cooled, poured into ice water, extracted with ethyl acetate (1000 ml*4), the organic phase was washed twice with saturated brine, the organic phase was combined, and anhydrous Na 2 SO 4 After drying and filtering, the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain 16.5 g of crude 4-methyl-2-thiomethyl-1(3)H-imidazole, which was purified by column chromatography to obtain 15 g of the product, yield: 72.1%.

Embodiment 3

[0011] Embodiment 3: the chloracetone of 150 g (1.62mol) is dissolved in the DMF of 5000 mL, then add the S-methylisothiourea (or its corresponding various salts) of 1.62 mol successively, 448 g (3.24 mol) of K 2 CO 3 , 24 g (0.16 mol) of NaI, heated to 80°C, and stirred overnight. Then the reaction solution was cooled, poured into ice water, extracted with ethyl acetate (10L*4), the organic phase was washed twice with saturated brine, the organic phase was combined, and anhydrous Na 2 SO 4 After drying and filtering, the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain 168 g of crude 4-methyl-2-thiomethyl-1(3)H-imidazole, which was purified by column chromatography to obtain 151 g of the product, yield: 72.5%.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing 4-methyl-2-sulfomethyl-1(3)H-imidazole. The technical problems of long route, low yield, difficulty in control of reaction, inconvenience in experiment operation and the like in the traditional synthetic process are solved. S-methylisothiourea (or various corresponding salts) and chloroacetone are heated to be prepared into the 4-methyl-2-sulfomethyl-1(3)H-imidazole, wherein K2CO3 serves as alkali and N,N-dimethylformamide serves as a solvent. The reaction formula is shown in the specifications. The 4-methyl-2-sulfomethyl-1(3)H-imidazole prepared by the method is a useful intermediate or product for the synthesis of a plurality of medicaments.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a synthesis method of 4-methyl-2-thiomethyl-1(3)H-imidazole. Background technique [0002] 4-Methyl-2-thiomethyl-1(3)H-imidazole and related derivatives are widely used in medicinal chemistry and organic synthesis. The current synthetic method of 4-methyl-2-thiomethyl-1(3)H-imidazole [Journal of the Chemical Society; 1951; 3030, (Bullerwell; Lawson; Journal of the Chemical Society; 1951; 3030; DOI: 10.1039 4-methyl-2- Thiomethyl-1(3)H-imidazole. This synthesis method mainly has the following problems: (1) The reaction process uses highly toxic drugs, which makes the experimental operation inconvenient; (2) The polarity of the product is high, and the purification is difficult; (3) The alkylation reaction is not easy to control, and the yield low rate. Concrete reaction formula is as follows: [0003] [0004] Therefore, it is necessary to develop a synthetic method with easy-to-obtain raw materials, convenient operation...
