Problems solved by technology

[0003] Among the above preparation methods, method (1) is mainly used for the preparation of 2,3-disubstituted benzofuran. The main disadvantage is that the dehydration reaction often produces two kinds of ring-closing products, which are difficult to separate and low in yield, and the 2-halogenated Ketone raw materials are not easy to obtain
The main disadvantage of method (2) is that 2-(2'-hydroxyphenyl) ketone (i.e. benzyl ketone) is difficult to prepare, and the acid-catalyzed dehydration ring-closing yield is very low
However, the disadvantage of this method is that it needs to be divided into three steps, and the operation cost is high.
The shortcoming of method (4) will use precious palladium catalyst, and needs raw material o-bromo or iodophenol, the cost is high
[0004] 2-Alkylbenzofuran is a popular structure for drug research and development. The existing synthetic methods use some expensive catalysts, but their disadvantages are low yield and high cost, and the synthetic process is difficult to scale up.
This method is currently the main production method used to prepare 2-methyl-6-methoxybenzofuran, but its disadvantages are low yield, high cost and poor process controllability
[0008] In addition, in the preparation of 2-methyl-3-formyl chloride-6-methoxybenzofuran, in the U.S. Patent Publication No. US2005137395A1 patent and the World Patent Publication No. WO03106462A1 patent, etc., the direct use of oxalyl chloride and acid chloride However, acid chlorides are easily reacted in water to form carboxylic acids, resulting in low recovery and low purity of crude products
In a series of preparation reactions, in the process of preparing 6-methoxy-N,2-dimethylbenzofuran-3-carboxamide, in US Patent Publication No. US2005137395A1 and World Patent Publication No. WO03106462A1 The monomethylamine used in patents and other reports is a gas, and the state of the solution formed after dissolving in tetrahydrofuran is extremely unstable, which increases the difficulty of the process and brings hidden dangers
