Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of pharmaceutical and chemical synthesis technology, specifically to a 3-trifluoromethyl-1,4-benzoxazine synthesis method. Synthetic methods for similar compounds. Background Technology
[0002] Organic compounds are important organic building blocks in chemical synthesis and commonly used basic skeletons for drug molecules, with broad application prospects in organic molecular synthesis, materials science, medicinal chemistry and natural product chemistry, and medicine. It is worth mentioning that... Drugs designed with benzodiazepine compounds as the basic skeleton have been widely used in clinical practice; for example, commonly used nervous system drugs such as diazepam, clonazepam, lorazepam, quetiapine fumarate, and calcium channel blocker diltiazem are derivatives with benzo7-membered heterocyclic compounds as the basic skeleton.
[0003] Given The wide range of applications of these compounds and the development of efficient synthetic methods have been a hot research topic for organic chemists in recent years. For example, Wei-wei Wang's team used L-cysteine and 2-fluorobenzaldehyde as raw materials to condense... The compound (Wei-wei Wang.; Ting YU.; Chao Wang., Synthesis of a novel comfomational restricted ammo Acid for potential use inpeptide chemistry. Heterocyctic Communications 2009, 15(6), 397-400); Wei-Sheng Huang's team used cuprous iodide to catalyze the coupling reaction of 2-iodoaniline with methyl 2-mercaptoacetate to generate Compounds of this type (Wei-Sheng Huang.; Rongsong Xu.; Rory Dodd.; William C. Shakespeare., Facile synthesis of 1,4-benzothiazin-3-ones from Cu-catalyzed coupling of 2-iodoanilines and 2-mercaptoacetate. Tetrahedron Letters 2013, 54(2013), 5214–5216); Toshiaki Saitoh's team synthesized 2-(phenylthio)ethylamine and aldehydes under titanium(IV) catalysis. The above reaction can effectively obtain the following compounds (Toshiaki Saitoh.; Michikazu Kitabatake.; Yuuko Sugihara.; Yuuki Ono.; Yo-shie Horiguchi.; Kunihiko Mohri., Short synthesis of 5-substitude-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-benzo[f][1,4]thiazepines by a modified pictet-spengler reaction. HETEROCYCLES 2017, 94(6), 1063-1073). These are similar compounds, but most have some drawbacks. For example, the raw materials are not readily available, the reaction process is cumbersome, toxic reagents and precious metals are used, the reaction conditions are relatively harsh, and the reaction conversion rate is low, making them difficult to apply to industrial production. Previously, a 1,4-benzothiazazepine was invented. A synthetic method for thiosalicylic acid esters.
