Problems solved by technology

[0005] The patent reports that the hydrogenation reaction takes 3 days, which is too long, which increases production costs and safety hazards in large-scale production, and in the reaction of preparing formula V, the introduction of formula SM 3a Condensation reaction, this reagent can provide very few suppliers on the market after searching, and the price is expensive after inquiry, and the yield of this step is reported in the patent at the same time. Preparation methods do not meet the needs of large-scale production in industry
Chinese patent CN201310537835 also reported the preparation method of formula V, the formula SM 3a Replaced with cyanoacetyl chloride, this method can reduce reagent cost, but because cyanoacetyl chloride is very easy to hydrolyze in water, this method has increased uncontrollable risk on suitability for industrialized production (involved equipment and material in the reaction all need for anhydrous treatment)
[0009] Based on the above facts, although this route can produce finished products, the quality cannot meet the requirements of pharmaceutical-grade raw materials
On the basis of this literature, it is mentioned in the article of China Pharmaceutical Industry Journal 2014, 45(3) page 201 that the formula SM 2 Alternative SM 1 , but the retrieval formula SM 2 At present, there is no supplier on the market, which cannot meet the needs of mass production.
J.Med.Chem.2010,53,8468~8484 documents disclose another preparation method, using the formula SM 3 Alternative SM 1 , but found that the substitution reaction of the first project is difficult to react completely, and the yield is very low (optimized by changing the feed ratio, increasing the temperature, and prolonging the reaction time), and this method cannot be scaled up.
In combination with the above prior art processes, there are relatively large defects, which basically cannot adapt to industrialized production
