Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of pharmaceutical intermediate synthesis, and particularly relates to a method for synthesizing 2-(aminomethyl)-1,3-thiazole-5-carboxylic acid methyl ester. Background Art

[0002] Thiazole and its derivatives are an important class of heterocyclic compounds, which have been proven to have excellent pharmacological and biological activities. They can be used as key intermediates to synthesize anti-tumor, antiviral and antibacterial drugs, and are widely used in the fields of medicine, pesticides, etc. Methyl 2-(aminomethyl)-1,3-thiazole-5-carboxylate is an important thiazole derivative and can be used as a key raw material to prepare HDAC6 inhibitors for the treatment of proliferative, inflammatory, infectious, neurological or cardiovascular diseases (as described in WO2011106627A1). Therefore, it is necessary to study its synthesis.

[0003] There is no report on the synthesis of methyl 2-(aminomethyl)-1,3-thiazole-5-carboxylate in the prior art, but the synthesis of its similar compound ethyl 2-(aminomethyl)-1,3-thiazole-5-carboxylate is mentioned in patent application CN111848546A, and the synthesis route is shown in Formula I below:

[0004]

[0005] The method uses aminoacetonitrile hydrochloride as a raw material, reacts with diethyl dithiophosphate under the protection of phthalic anhydride to obtain a thioamide intermediate, and then cyclizes with ethyl 2-chloro-3-oxopropionate, and deprotects to obtain the target compound 2-(aminomethyl)-1,3-thiazole-5-carboxylic acid ethyl ester. This method not only has a low yield, but also the diethyl dithiophosphate used in the second step of the synthesis has a foul odor, which seriously pollutes the environment during use and affects the quality of life of the surrounding residents. The ethyl 2-chloro-3-oxopropionate used in the third step has not been produced on an industrial scale, the supply is scarce, and the price is expensive. In addition, the method requires purification by adding Boc to the amino group and then removing Boc, which is difficult to purify and cumbersome to operate. Summary of the invention
