Embodiment 1

[0049] Embodiment 1: Preparation of 4,4-dicyanodiphenylmethane (compound 3)

[0050]Add 36g (0.32mol) of potassium tert-butoxide into 120ml of tetrahydrofuran, add dropwise a solution of 23.4g (0.2mol) of tetrahydrofuran (40ml) of p-methylbenzonitrile at -10°C, stir for half an hour after the addition, and keep the temperature constant Change. Weigh 32.9g (0.24mol) of p-chlorobenzonitrile, dissolve it in 80ml tetrahydrofuran, slowly drop it into the above reaction solution, control the temperature and react at -5~0°C, and continue the reaction for 2h after dropping. After the reaction, add water and stir to precipitate a solid, suction filter, wash the filter cake with water, and dry to obtain 31.6 g of a light yellow product with a yield of 72%.

[0051] Melting point: 167-169℃, 1 HNMR (400MHz, CDCl 3 )δ7.62(d, 4H, J=8.2Hz), 7.29(d, 4H, J=8.2Hz), 4.11(s, 2H).

Embodiment 2

[0052] Embodiment 2: Preparation of 4,4-dicyanodiphenylmethane (compound 3)

[0053] Dissolve 23.4g (0.2mol) of p-toluonitrile in 40ml of tetrahydrofuran, and add n-butyllithium in tetrahydrofuran (128ml, 2.5M / L) dropwise under cooling at -60°C, and continue stirring after the addition is complete For half an hour, at this temperature, a tetrahydrofuran (80ml) solution of 32.9g (0.24mol) of p-chlorobenzonitrile was added dropwise, and the reaction temperature was controlled at -60 to -50°C, and the reaction was continued for 2h after dropping. Then it was slowly raised to room temperature, and after the reaction was completed, water was added to precipitate a solid, filtered with suction, washed with water, and dried to obtain 35.1 g of a light yellow product with a yield of 80%.

[0054] Melting point: 167-169℃, 1 HNMR (400MHz, CDCl 3 )δ7.62(d, 4H, J=8.2Hz), 7.29(d, 4H, J=8.2Hz), 4.11(s, 2H).

Embodiment 3

[0055] Embodiment 3: Preparation of 4,4-dicyanodiphenyl bromide (compound 4)

[0056] In the reaction flask, add 11.0g (0.050mol) 4,4'-dicyanodiphenylmethane (compound 3), 9.8g (0.056mol) NBS, 303mg benzoyl peroxide and 50ml dichloromethane, stir Reflux, react for 6 hours, cool to room temperature, add water and stir, separate the organic phase, wash with saturated brine, dry over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filter, and distill the filtrate to remove the solvent under reduced pressure to obtain 13.6 g of a yellow solid with a yield of 91.6%.

[0057] Melting point: 118-120°C. 1 HNMR (500MHz, CDCl 3 )δ7.68(d,4H,J=8.3Hz,7.55(d,4H,J=8.3Hz),6.25(s,1H).

Abstract

The invention provides a preparation method of letrozole (6). The preparation method comprises the following steps: reacting a compound (1) with a compound (3) under the effect of an alkaline matter; performing a bromination reaction of the compound (3) to obtain a compound (4); condensing the compound (4) and 4-amino-1,2,4-triazole (5); and performing diazotization to remove the amino to obtain letrozole (6). According to the method provided by the invention, the route is simple; the cheap and easily available p-chlorobenzonitrile and p-tolunitrile are adopted as starting raw materials, and the target product letrozole is obtained through 3 steps of reactions in total; and the preparation method has the advantages of mild reaction conditions, simple and convenient operation, high yield, good chemical selectivity and low production cost, is suitable for industrial production and brings relatively great practical application value and social economic benefits.
