Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of organic chemical synthesis technology, and in particular to a method for preparing second-generation denitrifying flavin TND1128. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid aging of the population worldwide, neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and stroke are becoming increasingly prevalent, posing a pressing social problem that society urgently needs to address. One of the main causes of these diseases is the disruption of mitochondrial function. TND1128 (CAS No.: 59997-14-7) is a substance similar to NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide), possessing the same redox function as NAD+. Its anti-aging and other biological activities are dozens of times stronger than desoxyflavin, and it exhibits better stability. As a promising next-generation anti-aging health product, it can activate mitochondria and sirtuin genes, thus delaying aging and preventing the aforementioned neurodegenerative diseases. Simultaneously, TND1128 also enhances immunity, maintains eye health, and protects the skin and oral mucosa. Currently, there are few publicly disclosed preparation methods for TND1128, necessitating the development of new synthetic routes that are simple to operate and have high yields.
