Problems solved by technology

[0011] In the first method, Raney Ni is used to remove mercapto groups. The problem is that heteroatom sulfur, phosphorus, etc. are toxic to the catalyst Raney Ni, which leads to catalyst poisoning. Therefore, in actual operation, the catalyst The amount used is much higher than the theoretical value, resulting in an increase in the amount used, thereby increasing the cost of industrial production; at the same time, Raney Ni catalysis requires high pressure, which is inconvenient to operate;
The oxidation system mainly includes hydrogen peroxide / acetic acid system, hydrogen peroxide / formic acid system, hydrogen peroxide / heteropolyacid system; however, the main problem of directly using hydrogen peroxide oxidation is that the amount of hydrogen peroxide required is relatively large , it takes 7-8 times the amount to completely oxidize and remove the mercapto group, and an organic acid is needed as the reaction medium. Therefore, it is necessary to quench the excess hydrogen peroxide and neutralize the excess organic acid medium after the reaction

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing 1H-imidazole-4-formic acid. The method comprises the following steps of: performing cyclization on ethyl acetamidoacetate serving as a raw material and potassium thiocyanate to obtain 2-sulfydryl-4-imidazole ethyl formate; and performing catalytic oxidation by using a catalyst to remove sulfydryl to obtain sulfydryl removed imidazole-4-ethyl formate, hydrolyzing, and thus obtaining a target compound, namely 1H-imidazole-4-formic acid. The method has the advantages of high selectivity, improvement on yield, wide raw material source, low price and reasonable and feasible process design.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of resources and medicine and chemical industry, and in particular relates to a preparation method of 1H-imidazole-4-carboxylic acid bulk drug which can be used for producing medicines for treating heart diseases, anemia, rheumatoid arthritis and digestive tract ulcers.
