Preparation method of N, N-dimethylglycine for industrial production

Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method of N, N-dimethylglycine for industrial production. The preparation method comprises the following steps of S1, chloroacetic acid solution preparation: adding chloroacetic acid into water at a normal temperature to obtain a chloroacetic acid solution, S2, reaction of the chloroacetic acid solution and dimethylamine: adding the chloroacetic acid solution into a dimethylamine agueous solution according to a more ratio of chloroacetic acid to dimethylamine of 1: 2.5 to 1: 5, controlling a temperature in 20-70 DEG C, and then carrying out a thermal insulation reaction process at the temperature of 20-70 DEG C for 2-5h, S3, redundant dimethylamine removal: removing unreacted dimethylamine after the thermal insulation reaction, and S4, condensation crystallization, centrifugation and drying: concentrating the solution obtained by the step S3 to obtain a lot of white crystals, carrying out cooling to a temperature of 25 DEG C, and carrying out centrifugation and drying. The preparation method adopts the easily-available and cheap raw materials, has simple processes, is convenient for operation, has no purification difficulty and is suitable for large-scale industrial production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a preparation method of a pharmaceutical chemical intermediate, in particular to a preparation method of N,N-dimethylglycine suitable for industrial production. Background technique [0002] At present, N,N-dimethylglycine can be used as a drug to treat depression, improve human immunity, and enhance human tolerance. The methyl group in the structure has the function of transmethylation, which can be used to resist tumors and cancers, and can be widely used in the synthesis of anticancer drugs. N,N-Dimethylglycine can be used as a skin penetration enhancer and cosmetic additive due to its strong water absorption. At the same time, the antioxidant and non-toxic properties of N,N-dimethylglycine can be used as an antioxidant in food. [0003] The methods for preparing N,N-dimethylglycine in the past include: [0004] 1. Prepare N,N-dimethylglycine by reacting sodium cyanide, dimethylamine, sodium bisulfite and formaldehyde. Th...
