AI Technical Summary
Existing tranexamic acid synthesis processes suffer from high wastewater discharge, low reactivity, high cost, and potential toxic impurities, lacking both green and cost-competitive process routes.
Trans-4-bromomethylcyclohexane was reacted with methanol and phthalimide salt to generate trans-(N-phthalimidemethyl)-4-hydroxymethyl-cyclohexane, which was then converted to tranexamic acid under the action of oxidant and catalyst. Green synthesis was achieved by controlling the ratio of cis to trans isomers.
This provides a low-cost, safe, and quality-controllable synthetic route for tranexamic acid, reducing wastewater discharge, lowering the risk of toxic impurities, and improving synthesis efficiency.
