Embodiment 1

[0077] Embodiment 1: Preparation of 1-bromo-7-methoxynaphthalene

[0078] Add 1-bromo-7-naphthol (5.6g, 0.025mol) successively in the 250ml four-neck round bottom flask, 100ml toluene, dimethyl sulfate (15.8g, 0.125mol) and tetramethylammonium bromide (0.25g, 0.0015mol), start mechanical stirring. 14.0 g of 50% KOH aqueous solution was added dropwise at 25-40°C. After dripping, continue to react. The reaction was monitored by TLC until the conversion of the starting material 1-bromo-7-naphthol was complete. After the reaction, 10ml of water was added, the temperature was raised to 55-60°C, and the temperature was kept for 1 hour. Separate layers, take the upper organic phase and discard the lower aqueous phase. The organic phase was washed successively with 5% aqueous sodium hydroxide and 5% aqueous sodium chloride. The solvent was evaporated to dryness to obtain 5.39 g of 1-bromo-7-methoxynaphthalene as a colorless waxy solid, with a yield of 90.94%.

Embodiment 2

[0081] Embodiment 2: Preparation of 1-bromo-7-methoxynaphthalene

[0082] In the 1000ml four-neck round bottom flask, add 1-bromo-7-naphthol (22.3g, 0.10mol) successively, 400ml toluene, dimethyl sulfate (63.2g, 0.125mol) and tetrabutylammonium bromide (1.0g, 0.003mol) to start the mechanical stirring. 56.0 g of 50% KOH aqueous solution was added dropwise at 10-15°C. After dripping, continue to react. The reaction was monitored by TLC until the conversion of the starting material 1-bromo-7-naphthol was complete. After the reaction, 100ml of water was added, the temperature was raised to 55-60°C, and the temperature was kept for 1 hour. Separate layers, take the upper organic phase and discard the lower aqueous phase. The organic phase was washed successively with 5% aqueous sodium hydroxide and 5% aqueous sodium chloride. The solvent was evaporated to dryness to obtain 22.52 g of 1-bromo-7-methoxynaphthalene as a colorless waxy solid, with a yield of 95.0%.

Embodiment 3

[0083] Embodiment 3: Preparation of 1-bromo-7-propoxynaphthalene

[0084] In the 250ml four-neck round bottom flask, add 1-bromo-7-naphthol (5.6g, 0.025mol) successively, 100ml toluene, dipropyl sulfate (22.8g, 0.125mol) and tetrapropylammonium bromide (0.4g, 0.0015mol), start mechanical stirring. 14.0 g of 50% KOH aqueous solution was added dropwise at 25-40°C. After dripping, continue to react. The reaction was monitored by TLC until the conversion of the starting material 1-bromo-7-naphthol was complete. After the reaction, 10ml of water was added, the temperature was raised to 55-60°C, and the temperature was kept for 1 hour. Separate layers, take the upper organic phase and discard the lower aqueous phase. The organic phase was washed successively with 5% aqueous sodium hydroxide and 5% aqueous sodium chloride. The solvent was evaporated to dryness to obtain 6.08 g of 1-bromo-7-propoxynaphthalene as a colorless waxy solid, with a yield of 91.83%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of preparation methods of carboxylic acid amides, in particular to the technical field of preparation methods of agomelatine and its intermediates. Background technique [0002] The melatonin receptor agonist antidepressant agomelatine was approved for marketing in the European Union on February 19, 2009, and its trade name is Agomelatine (Agomelatine), chemical name: N-[2-(7-methoxy-1-naphthyl) ethyl] acetamide, is a kind of melatonin developed by Servier company in France 1,2 (MT 1 MT 2 ) receptor agonists, but also five serotonin 2c (5HT2c) receptor antagonists, clinically mainly used for the treatment of adult depression. [0003] [0004] With regard to the preparation of agomelatine, a lot of research work has been carried out. Among the existing synthetic routes, each route has its own characteristics, and also has certain shortcomings. At present, the common synthetic routes at home and abro...
