Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of preparation methods of Kasaran, in particular to a preparation method of Kasaran. Background Art
[0002] Kasalan (chemical name: benzo[e][1,3]oxazine-2,4-dione) is an important intermediate in the synthesis of sodium 8-(2-hydroxybenzamido)octanoate. Sodium 8-(2-hydroxybenzamido)octanoate, abbreviated as SNAC, is an amino acid derivative absorption enhancer that can promote the oral absorption of various protein-based drug solutions, such as heparin and human growth hormone. It can also be used to treat gastrointestinal diseases and has promising application prospects.
[0003] Patent publication number CN104974060A describes a synthesis method for preparing benzo[e][1,3]oxazine-2,4-dione by reacting 2-hydroxybenzamide with ethyl chloroformate in acetonitrile as a solvent, catalyzed by pyridine, and then heating the reaction temperature to 124°C. This method, with a yield of only approximately 85%, requires high temperatures, and the use of a mixed solvent of acetonitrile and pyridine increases costs and is environmentally unsuitable for scale-up production.
[0004] Patent publication number CN108689876A describes a synthesis method for preparing benzo[e][1,3]oxazine-2,4-dione by reacting 2-hydroxybenzamide with carbonyldiimidazole using DMF as a solvent. While this method offers mild reaction conditions and a yield of up to 97.9%, the use of DMF as a solvent is environmentally unfriendly, carbonyldiimidazole is expensive, and the byproduct imidazole can cause water pollution, making wastewater treatment difficult and costly, making it unsuitable for industrial production.
[0005] Patent publication number CN112661662A describes a synthesis method: using acetonitrile as a solvent, 2-hydroxybenzamide reacts with oxalyl chloride to prepare benzo[e][1,3]oxazine-2,4-dione, with a yield of 93.2%. Oxalyl chloride used in this method is highly toxic and reacts with water to produce the toxic gas carbon monoxide. The use of acetonitrile as a solvent also makes it unsuitable for industrial production. Patent publication number CN113795482A describes a synthesis method: using ethanol as a solvent, 2-hydroxybenzamide reacts with diethyl carbonate in the presence of sodium ethoxide, and the temperature is raised to 80°C to prepare kasaran, with a yield of 90%. This method uses expensive sodium ethoxide, a large excess of diethyl carbonate, and requires ethanol as a solvent for both the reaction and crystallization, which increases the number of steps and makes it unsuitable for industrial production.
[0006] Patent publication number CN111269193A describes a synthetic method for preparing benzo[e][1,3]oxazine-2,4-dione by reacting 2-hydroxybenzamide with phosgene in the presence of pyridine at a temperature of 50°C. While this method is simple to operate, the phosgene used is a highly toxic substance, posing operational safety risks and high production risks. Furthermore, the use of pyridine, which has a foul odor, is environmentally unfriendly and unsuitable for industrial production. The inventors tested the method using the safer triphosgene instead of phosgene, but failed to obtain the desired results described in the patent.
[0007] Patent publication number CN115260116A improves upon patent CN104974060, describing a synthesis method: using ethanol as the solvent, 2-hydroxybenzamide reacts with ethyl chloroformate in the presence of triethylamine as an acid-binding agent, heating the reaction temperature to 85°C to produce benzo[e][1,3]oxazine-2,4-dione with a yield of 94.5%. This method solves the problem of residual ethyl chloroformate, but requires high-temperature reflux to evaporate the solvent before the reaction is complete, resulting in high energy consumption. Furthermore, the use of ethanol and triethylamine poses recycling issues, increasing operational safety and quality risks, making it unsuitable for industrial production. Summary of the Invention
