[0012] CN102002065A (preparation method of tapentadol and its intermediate) provides a new method for preparing tapentadol hydrochloride, which uses 3-tert-butyldimethylsilyloxybenzaldehyde as the starting material , under the catalysis of R-proline, it undergoes Aldol condensation reaction with propionaldehyde to obtain (2R,3S)-3-hydroxyl-2-methyl-3-(3-tert-butyldimethylsilyloxyphenyl) Propionaldehyde, the compound reacts with dimethylamine hydrochloride to obtain (1S, 2S)-3-(dimethylamino)-2-methyl-1-(3-tert-butyldimethylsilyloxybenzene base)-1-propanol, the obtained compound is reacted with p-toluenesulfonyl chloride to obtain (1S, 2S)-3-(dimethylamino)-2-methyl-1-(3-tert-butyldimethyl Siloxyphenyl) propyl-4-tosylate, and then Grignard reaction to obtain (2R, 3R)-3-(3-tert-butyldimethylsilyloxyphenyl)-2-methyl Amyl-N, N-dimethylamine, and finally tapentadol is obtained through deprotection of trifluoroacetic acid. The starting material of this reaction, 3-tert-butyldimethylsilyloxybenzaldehyde, is not currently commercially available. In the reaction process, harsh conditions such as Grignard reaction are used, which increases the difficulty of industrial production
[0025] In summary, most of the current methods for synthesizing tapentadol use harsh conditions such as Grignard reaction and high-pressure hydrogenation, and use expensive raw materials

Abstract

The invention provides a synthesis method for 3-[(1R, 2R)-3-( dimethylamino)-1-ethyl-2-methylpropyl] phenol. The 3-[(1R, 2R)-3-( dimethylamino)-1-ethyl-2-methylpropyl] phenol is obtained by performing steps such as resolution, halogenation, amidation, reduction and demethylation on 3-(3-methoxyphenyl)-2-mevalonic acid serving as a starting raw material. The method has the advantages of mild reaction conditions, easiness and convenience in operation, capability of greatly reducing the production cost and high suitability for industrial production. According to the method, high-purity tapentadol can be obtained, the liquid phase purity of tapentadol hydrochloride obtained after salification reaches 99.8 percent, ee (enantiomeric excess) percent is greater than 99.5 percent, and the tapentadol can be directly applied to the field of medicines.
