Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing medetomidine. Medetomidine can be effectively prepared according to the method for preparing medetomidine, and by adopting a cheap 4-imidazole derivative and cheap 1-(2,3-dimethylphenyl)ethanone as raw materials, the medetomidine product is prepared only through three-step reactions. The method has simple process conditions, is easy to control, and is conducive to industrialized mass production; and the yield of medetomidine prepared by the method for preparing medetomidine can reach 76%, and the product purity can reach 99.5%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of medicinal chemistry, in particular, the invention relates to a method for preparing medetomidine. Background technique [0002] Medetomidine (also known as medetomidine, see the compound shown in formula 1), chemical name 4-[1-(2,3-dimethylphenyl) ethyl]-1H-imidazole, is two The racemic mixture of equal proportions of optical isomers was jointly developed by Orion Pharma of Finland and Abott of the United States. It was first listed in the United States in March 2000 and listed in Japan in January 2004. Medetomidine is an α2-adrenergic receptor agonist, which plays an important medicinal role in the regulation of hypertension, bradycardia (lower heart rate), alertness and pain relief. The construct is also an anesthetic for the active ingredient. [0003] US4443466A discloses to use 2,3-dimethylbenzaldehyde as a starting material, through Grignard, chlorination, and reaction with titanium tetrachloride ...
