Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of organic chemical synthesis and relates to a method for synthesizing o-aminophenol compounds. Background Art

[0002] 2-Aminophenol widely exists in natural products and drug molecules as an important functional structure. Drugs containing this structure are used as anthelmintics (niclosamide), anti-cancer drugs (destomycin), insecticides (antimycin A3), and bronchodilators for the treatment of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (procaterol, formoterol), etc. Due to the important value of 2-aminophenol, various methods for synthesizing o-aminophenol have been developed in recent decades. For example, CN104513169A discloses a method for preparing o-aminophenol, using o-nitrophenol as a raw material and ammonium thiosulfate as a reducing agent to react to prepare o-aminophenol. CN114181098A discloses a method for producing o-aminophenol, mixing and dissolving 60% ethanol and o-nitrophenol, and then catalytic hydrogenation to obtain o-aminophenol. CN114031509A discloses a method for preparing o-aminophenol, using water, nitrobenzene, and sulfuric acid as raw materials, and catalytic hydrogenation to obtain o-aminophenol. However, the existing methods are mainly continuous nitration and reduction of phenol. However, this method usually has disadvantages such as poor regioselectivity, harsh reaction conditions, low yield, and cumbersome reaction process, greatly reducing its production and application value.

[0003] Therefore, it is of great significance to develop a rapid, efficient, highly regioselective and environmentally friendly ortho-hydroxylation strategy for aromatic amines. For this reason, the present invention is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the above-mentioned status of the prior art, especially the defects of poor regioselectivity, harsh reaction conditions, low yield, and cumbersome reaction process in the existing preparation strategies of o-aminophenol, the inventors of the present invention have conducted in-depth and extensive research on the ortho-hydroxylation of aromatic amines, aiming to achieve the rapid and efficient synthesis of o-aminophenol without transition metals and oxidants. The inventors of the present invention have found that under the condition of no transition metal catalysis, through a tandem rearrangement reaction involving arylhydroxylamine compounds, sulfonyl chloride, and methanol, the efficient and highly regioselective synthesis of ortho-hydroxylated aromatic amine compounds can be achieved. The present invention is precisely based on the foregoing discovery.

[0005] Therefore, the object of the present invention is to provide a method for synthesizing o-aminophenol compounds. Compared with the existing preparation strategy of continuous nitration and reduction of phenol, the present invention realizes the efficient and highly regioselective synthesis of ortho-hydroxylated aromatic amine compounds through a tandem rearrangement reaction involving arylhydroxylamine compounds, sulfonyl chloride, and methanol, without transition metal catalysis and without using oxidants or reducing agents.
