Problems solved by technology

Due to the limitations of photochemistry itself, such as cumbersome operation, it is not suitable for large-scale production, so it is difficult to realize industrial production
Literature (Tetrahedron, 1986, 42, 819-828) reported the method of using (R)-(+)-vanillin as a raw material to synthesize artemisinin. However, due to the long synthetic route, the total yield is low and the atom economy is poor.
In addition, photochemical methods are also used to introduce peroxygen bonds, which is difficult to achieve industrial production
Others such as Mitchell A.Avery (J.Am.Chem.Soc., 1992.114.974-979) reported the utilization of pulegone as a raw material to synthesize artemisinin, which has a long synthetic route and low yield
At the same time, ozone is used to introduce peroxygen bonds, which is difficult to operate, poor in safety, and has low industrialization prospects.
If the traditional chemical synthesis method can be used to realize the introduction of the peroxy bond, not only the operability is strong, but also the experimental industrial production is very possible

Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method of artemisinin, wherein the preparation method comprise the steps: with artemisinic acid as a starting material, obtaining dihydroartemisinic acid under the hydrogen / metal catalyst action, then oxidizing dihydroartemisinic acid into arteannuic acid dihydrogen peroxide by hydrogen peroxide in the presence of sodium molybdate, and finally acting with oxygen under the catalysis of copper trifluoromethanesulfonate, to obtain the target product artemisinin with high yield. Compared with the prior art, the preparation method has the following advantages:the used reagents are cheap and easy to get, the synthetic route is short, the reaction selectivity is high, the preparation process is environmentally friendly, the operation and post-processing aresimple, the total yield is high, and the preparation method is suitable for industrialized production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a preparation method of artemisinin, which belongs to the field of organic drug synthesis. Background technique [0002] Artemisinin, a sesquiterpene lactone antimalarial drug with peroxy groups extracted from the traditional Chinese medicine Artemisia annua, is the first internationally recognized natural medicine discovered in China. The antimalarial mechanism of artemisinin is different from other antimalarial drugs. Its main function is to interfere with the membrane-mitochondrion function of Plasmodium, rather than interfere with folic acid metabolism, resulting in the complete collapse of parasite structure. In addition, artemisinin can be used as raw material to synthesize a variety of its derivatives, such as dihydroartemisinin, artemether, artesunate and so on. These artemisinin drugs have low toxicity and strong anti-masochistic properties, and have been approved by the WTO as the first-choice drugs for the treatment...
