Abstract

The invention relates to a preparation method of (Z)-2-cyano-3-hydroxy-N-(4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-2-butenamide (I). The preparation method is characterized in that cyanoacetic acid (I) is dehydrated and condensed to obtain cyan acetic anhydride (III), the cyan acetic anhydride (III) reacts with trifluoromethyl phenyl under the action of catalyst to obtain 2-cyano-N-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-ethanamide (IV), and the 2-cyano-N-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-ethanamide (IV) reacts with the acetylchloride in the presence of sodium hydride to obtain teriflunomide (I).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a preparation method of teriflunomide. Background technique [0002] Teriflunomide (teriflunomide), chemical name: (Z)-2-cyano-3-hydroxyl N-[4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-2-butenamide, structural formula as follows, is a Dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) inhibitors, the active metabolites of leflunomide, were developed by Sanofi-Aventis for use in relapsing multiple sclerosis in phase II clinical studies Treatment is currently in phase III clinical research. Research on teriflunomide has also been carried out in China, mainly for the treatment of skin diseases. [0003] [0004] There are two main reaction routes for the synthesis of teriflunomide: [0005] (1) Condensation of ethyl acetoacetate and triethyl orthoformate to generate ethoxymethine ethyl acetoacetate, which is cyclized with hydroxylamine to generate ethyl 5-methylisoxazole-4-carboxylate, which is then hydrolyzed to generate 5-methylisoxazole-4-carboxylic a...
