Problems solved by technology

[0011] The above two routes have the following disadvantages: the highly toxic compound methyl ketene is used as the starting material, and methyl ketene is strongly irritating to the eyes, skin, mucous membranes and upper respiratory tract, and it is not easy to handle during use; finally to the preparation of suvorexant In the process, chiral resolution is required, which is not conducive to large-scale industrial production, and the yield is low
[0014] Disadvantages of this route: the highly toxic compound methyl ketene is used as the starting material, and methyl ketene is strongly irritating to the eyes, skin, mucous membranes and upper respiratory tract, and it is not easy to handle when used; in addition, heavy metal catalysts are used, and the cost is relatively high , and not friendly to the environment
[0017] Disadvantages of this route: the highly toxic compound methyl ketene is used as the starting material, and methyl ketene is strongly irritating to eyes, skin, mucous membranes and upper respiratory tract
[0020] Disadvantages of this route: the highly toxic compound methyl ketene is used as the starting material, and methyl ketene is strongly irritating to eyes, skin, mucous membranes and upper respiratory tract
After inhalation, oral administration or percutaneous absorption, severe poisoning may die, and it is difficult to handle during use; after that, suvorexant can be obtained through chiral resolution or chiral catalysis, which is not conducive to large-scale industrial production, and the yield is low

Abstract

The invention relates to three novel compound formulas I, II and III for preparing suvorexant, stereoisomers or salt thereof and a preparation method of the formulas I, II and III. The invention also relates to a method for preparing the suvorexant. The preparation method disclosed by the invention can be used for synthesizing to obtain the chiral compounds I, II and III through a chiral initiator and use the chiral compounds I, II and III for the synthesis of the suvorexant and has the advantages of easiness for operation, moderation in reaction condition, easiness for post processing, easiness for purification, high yield, high ee value and easiness for industrialization.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of drug synthesis, and provides a suvorexant synthesis process and a preparation method for new compounds formulas I, II, III, stereoisomers or salts thereof, and formulas I, II, III for preparing suvorexant. Background technique [0002] Insomnia is the most common sleep disorder, about 30-50% of adults have shown symptoms of insomnia, of which 10-15% have been diagnosed with insomnia. According to statistics, the loss caused by insomnia reaches tens of billions of dollars every year. Although insomnia is associated with many serious physical and mental diseases, people's attention to it is far from enough. For a long time, insomnia is only defined as a symptom of other diseases, so little progress has been made in its understanding and treatment . [0003] Currently, sedative-hypnotics for the treatment of insomnia include the following categories: antidepressant sedatives, benzodiazepine sedative-hypnot...
