A kind of preparation method of mebendazole intermediate 3,4-diaminobenzophenone

Abstract

A preparing method of a mebendazole intermediate (3,4-diaminophenyl)phenyl methanone is disclosed. The method includes adding 4-amino-3-nitro diphenylmethanone and a catalyst into an organic solvent, adding a hydrogen donor, and performing transfer hydrogenation reduction to obtain the (3,4-diaminophenyl)phenyl methanone, wherein the catalyst is a Pd-X / C catalyst, and the X is one of Ni, Ru, La, Ce, Co, Li, K, Mg, Ti, Cu or Mo. The method has advantages of mild conditions, simple operation, a high reduction rate, a low cost, high environment protection performance, easy industrial production, and the like.

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0007] At present, the sodium sulfide reduction method is mainly used in industry. The products produced by this method are of poor quality, and a large amount of sulfide-containing wastewater will be generated during the production process. The wastewater is difficult to treat and causes serious environmental pollution.

In 1998, Dobrodei et al. (Russian Journal of General Chemistry, 1998, vol.68(4): 620-629) reported the preparation of 3,4-diaminobenzophenone by nickel-catalyzed hydrogenation in tetrahydrofuran at 30-40°C , due to the use of active nickel catalysis, the amount of reaction by-products is large and the product yield is low. At the same time, active nickel is very easy to catch fire in the air, resulting in a huge safety hazard in production.

In 2015, Zhang, Jin et al. (Bioorganic and Medicinal Chemistry, 2015, vol.23(5): 976-984) reported that the catalytic hydrogenation method had a relatively high operating pressure, and the carbonyl group was easily reduced to methylene to form a by-product 4- Benzylphenyl-1,2-diamine not only reduces the reaction yield, but also reduces the purity of the product
