Embodiment 1

[0049] Embodiment 1: A kind of preparation method of agomelatine intermediate

[0050] 1. Acid chloride of 7-methoxy-1-naphthylpropionic acid

[0051]In a 1L glass reaction flask, add 863.40 g of methylene chloride and 57.56 g (0.25 mol) of 7-methoxy-1-naphthylpropionic acid in sequence, and raise the temperature to 35°C until 7-methoxy-1-naphthyl All propionic acid was dissolved. Control the temperature at 35°C, and slowly add 59.48g (0.5mol) of thionyl chloride dropwise to the reaction system under the state of slight reflux. The dropwise addition time is 2 hours. The reaction was continued for 3.5 hours. After the reaction was completed, dichloromethane and excess thionyl chloride were distilled off under reduced pressure to obtain 7-methoxy-1-naphthylpropionyl chloride.

[0052] 2. Amidation

[0053] All the 7-methoxyl-1-naphthyl propionyl chloride obtained in step 1 was dissolved in 460 grams of ethyl acetate, and the reaction system was kept at 0°C under an ice-water...

Abstract

The invention relates to a preparation method of an agomelatine intermediate, which belongs to the field of drug intermediates, and comprises the following four steps: acylating chlorination and amidation of 7-methoxy-1-naphthyl propionic acid, Hofmann degradation of 7-methoxynaphthalene-1-yl propanamide, and post-treatment. 7-methoxy-1-naphthyl propionyl chloride obtained by carrying out acylating chlorination on the 7-methoxy-1-naphthyl propionic acid is subjected to amidation to obtain 7-methoxy-1-naphthyl propionamide, and then the 7-methoxy-1-naphthyl propionamide is subjected to Hofmann degradation to obtain the agomelatine intermediate 7-methoxy-1-naphthyl ethylamine. The preparation method disclosed by the invention is short in reaction step and mild in reaction condition, the reaction temperature is-5 to 100 DEG C, and the reaction pressure is normal pressure; an azide is not used, Raney nickel catalysis or palladium carbon catalytic hydrogenation operation is not involved, and the reaction operation is simple and safe; the total yield of the 7-methoxy-1-naphthyl ethylamine can reach 67.1%-78.4%, and the liquid phase purity can reach 98.1%-98.9%.
