Embodiment 1

[0020] Under nitrogen protection conditions, add 6-methyl-2-(4-methylphenyl)-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine (1.11g, 5mmol) into a 100mL reaction flask, add Ir(ppy) 2 (dtbbpy)PF 6 (65.5mg, 2mol%), 2-bromo-N,N-dimethylacetamide (1.66g, 10mmol), N,N-dicyclohexylmethylamine 2.14mL (1.95g, 10mmol), 30mL acetonitrile as solvent , under the irradiation of a 5W blue LED lamp, stirred at 40°C for 18h, quenched the reaction with water, extracted with dichloromethane (60mL×3), washed with 50mL saturated brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated under vacuum. Purified and separated by column chromatography to obtain white solid N,N,6-methyl-2-(4-methylphenyl)-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-3-acetamide (zolpidem) 0.97 g, the yield is 63%, and the structure detection data of the prepared Zolpidem are as follows:

[0021] m.p.193-195°C (reported m.p.194-196°C); 1 H NMR (400MHz, CDCl 3 ):δ(ppm)7.93(s,1H),7.52–7.49(m,3H),7.22(d,J=7.6Hz,2H),7.03(d,J=8.8Hz,1H),4.03(s, 2H), 2.92(s,3H), 2....

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing zolpidem. The method comprises the step of subjecting 6-methyl-2-(4-methylphenyl)-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine, which serves as a raw material, to a reaction with 2-bromo-N,N-dimethylacetamide under the action of photocatalysis, thereby obtaining the zolpidem. Compared with the prior art, the method has the advantages that environment-friendly and pollution-free LED light serves as an energy source, so that an environment-friendly sustainable development idea is embodied; and during the preparation of the zolpidem, five steps in the prior art are shortened to one step. According to the method, the preparation route is short, the preparation method is simple, the production cost is low, the product yield is high, the consumption of a solvent and the pollution to environments during blowdown are reduced, the implementation is easy, and thus, the industrialization is facilitated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention discloses a preparation method of zolpidem, which belongs to the technical field of medicinal chemistry. Background technique [0002] Imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine is considered as a "predominant structure" because it can be structurally modified or functionalized at multiple sites, and compounds based on such heterocycles exhibit a variety of pharmacological activities . At present, many compounds containing imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine heterocycle have entered the drug market, such as Zolpidem, Alpidem, Minodronic Acid and Olprinone et al. [0003] Zolpidem is a non-benzodiazepine short-acting sedative-hypnotics developed by the French company Sanofi. It was launched in France in 1988 and officially imported into my country in 1995. At present, the trade names of zolpidem tartrate commonly used in the drug market in my country include Sinuosi, Letan, and Nuobin. Zolpidem, as an imidazopyridine hypnotic, can activate γ-aminobutyric acid type A r...
