Problems solved by technology

[0006] This method has the following problems in the process of preparing 6-fluoro-3-hydroxyl-2-cyanopyrazine (compound II): one, heterogeneous reaction, stirring difficulty, increase processing difficulty; pH, extraction, washing, and drying and decompression to remove the solvent are cumbersome and costly; 3. Column chromatography is used for purification, which is not suitable for industrial production; 4. The yield of this step is only 45.6%, and the production cost has increased significantly
[0009] In this method, the intermediate 6-fluoro-3-hydroxyl-2-cyanopyrazine is made into an organic amine salt, and this step has the following problems: 1. After the reaction solution is filtered, it is necessary to adjust the pH and form a salt with ammonia water. It is cumbersome and complicated to handle; 2. In the salt-forming step, organic solvents acetone and toluene are introduced. The solvent itself is highly toxic, which increases the potential risk of solvent residue; 3. The introduced organic amine is difficult to remove from the product
In the step of preparing Favipiravir, there are the following problems: 1. Toluene is used as the reaction solvent, which is a carcinogenic solvent. It is used in large quantities in production, which affects the safety of operators, causes a large amount of waste liquid to affect environmental protection, and increases waste liquid treatment and environmental protection costs. , in addition, increase the solvent residue and increase the cost of quality control; 2. In the post-processing step, it is necessary to add seed crystals to precipitate solids.
[0012] This method has the following problems in the process of preparing 6-fluoro-3-hydroxyl-2-cyanopyrazine (compound II): one, the reaction solvent contains toluene, a carcinogenic solvent, two, concentrated hydrochloric acid is needed to adjust pH, extract, Washing requires drying and decompression to remove the solvent. The operation is cumbersome, costly, and inconvenient in production.
[0015] This method has the following problems in the process of preparing 6-fluoro-3-hydroxyl-2-cyanopyrazine: after the reaction, hydrochloric acid is required to adjust the pH, extract, wash, and also need to be dried and decompressed to remove the solvent, which is cumbersome and costly
In the step of preparing Favipiravir, one, using concentrated sulfuric acid as a solvent, which is very dangerous in itself, coupled with high temperature reaction, the risk factor increases, in addition, the equipment is severely corroded, and is not suitable for industrial production; two, concentrated sulfuric acid is dropped into water , a large amount of heat release, especially concentrated sulfuric acid solution at 50°C, the heat release is more serious, the risk factor increases, and it is very unsuitable for industrial production; 3. Water is used as a solvent, and there is a problem of difficulty in stirring; 4. Post-processing requires extraction and other operations, and it is also Need chromatographic column purification and separation, not suitable for suitability for suitability for industrialized production; Five, 3 embodiment two-step reaction average yields 64%

Embodiment 1

[0049] The preparation of embodiment 1 Favipiravir

[0050]

[0051] Add 5.0 g of 3,6-difluoro-2-cyanopyrazine and 10 ml of dimethyl sulfoxide into the reaction flask, and add aqueous sodium acetate solution (5.1 g of anhydrous sodium acetate dissolved in 20 ml of water) under stirring conditions. Heat to 50-60°C and stir until the reaction is complete. The reaction solution was filtered, and the filter cake was rinsed with 20 ml of purified water. Add dropwise sodium hydroxide aqueous solution (4.1g sodium hydroxide dissolved in 20ml water) to the filtrate under stirring condition. After the dropwise addition, add 10ml water and 5ml hydrogen peroxide solution dropwise. React and stir until the reaction is complete. Cool down to 20-30°C, add concentrated hydrochloric acid dropwise to adjust the pH to 3.0. The temperature was lowered to crystallize, filtered, and the filter cake was rinsed with purified water and dried to obtain 4.73 g of favipiravir with a yield of 85.0%...
