Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of intermediate synthesis, and in particular to a method for synthesizing important pharmaceutical intermediates 4-methylsulfonylacetophenone and / or 4-methylsulfoxideacetophenone, and belongs to the field of fine chemical compound preparation. Background Art
[0002]
[0003] 4-Methylsulfonylacetophenone is also known as 4-(methylsulfonyl)acetophenone or p-(methylsulfonyl)acetophenone, 4-methylsulfoxyacetophenone is also known as p-methylsulfinylacetophenone, 1-(4-methylsulfinylphenyl)ethanone, which are widely used in the synthesis of antibiotics, antibacterial drugs and anticancer drugs, such as lidocaine, amphetamines and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
[0004] The following are some commonly used methods for preparing 4-methylsulfonylacetophenone / 4-methylsulfoxideacetophenone. For example, in a diethylene glycol dibutyl ether system, 4-methylsulfonylacetophenone is prepared using acetylanisole as a reactant and oxygen as an oxidant (Chinese Chemical Letters, 2020). Since the oxidation reaction product selectivity of oxygen as an oxidant is low, and oxygen as an oxidant is potentially dangerous at high concentrations, which may cause explosion or fire risks, strict safety measures need to be taken during the operation. In addition, diethylene glycol dibutyl ether itself may have certain toxicity and environmental pollution risks, so the method faces problems such as reaction selectivity, reaction rate, environmental and safety issues. In addition, in a methanol and acetic acid system, magnesium monoperoxyphthalate is used as an oxidant to prepare 4-methylsulfonylacetophenone / 4-methylsulfoxideacetophenone ( ChemInform , 2010, 33(4)). Magnesium monoperoxyphthalate, as a strong oxidant, has the problems of instability and easy decomposition. Especially in high temperature or strong acid environment, acetic acid, as an acidic solvent, may react with magnesium monoperoxide phthalate, resulting in low selectivity of reaction products. In recent years, Su Yuan et al. used sodium tungstate dihydrate and sodium perborate tetrahydrate as catalysts in an acetone system to prepare 4-methylsulfonylacetophenone / 4-methylsulfoxide acetophenone. However, acetone as a solvent has certain volatility and flammability, which increases the operational risk and safety hazard in the reaction process. In addition, sodium perborate as an oxidant will generate boron-containing waste liquid in the reaction process, which increases the burden of environmental governance and reduces economic benefits. In addition, Saeedi et al. used acetyl thioanisole as a reactant and hydrogen peroxide as an oxidant in an acetic acid aqueous solution system to prepare 4-methylsulfonylacetophenone / 4-methylsulfoxide acetophenone ( Applied Organometallic Chemistry, 2019,33(3).). The reaction needs to be carried out under specific acidic conditions, the selectivity of the reaction products is low, and the participation of acetic acid in the reaction may produce by-products such as peracetic acid, which increases the difficulty and cost of subsequent treatment. Summary of the invention
[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art, and to provide a green and efficient synthesis method of 4-methylsulfonylacetophenone / 4-methylsulfoxideacetophenone. In view of the shortcomings of low product yield, harsh reaction conditions, high production cost and complicated post-processing in the existing preparation process of 4-methylsulfonylacetophenone / 4-methylsulfoxideacetophenone, the present invention develops a TS-1 molecular sieve / hydrogen peroxide system to selectively produce high-purity 4-methylsulfonylacetophenone and / or 4-methylsulfoxideacetophenone by oxidative desulfurization.

[0101] Comparative Example 1
[0102] Provided is a method for preparing 4-methylsulfonylacetophenone and 4-methylsulfoxideacetophenone, which is different from Example 1 in that the molar ratio of 4-methylthioacetophenone to the hydrogen peroxide solution in the raw material solution is 1:0.5, no TS-1 molecular sieve is added as a catalyst, the reaction temperature is 80°C, and after 20 minutes of reaction, the conversion rate of 4-methylthioacetophenone is 30%, the selectivity of 4-methylsulfonylacetophenone is 0, and the selectivity of 4-methylsulfoxideacetophenone is 100%
[0103] Comparative Example 2
[0104] A method for preparing 4-methylsulfonylacetophenone and 4-methylsulfoxideacetophenone using TS-1 molecular sieve is provided, which is different from Example 1 in that: no oxidant hydrogen peroxide solution is added, and after 20 minutes of reaction, the conversion rate of 4-methylthioacetophenone is 0%. No reaction occurs under this condition.
[0105] The amounts of raw materials added, process parameters and catalytic performance results in Examples 1 to 16 and Comparative Examples 1 to 2 are specifically shown in Table 1.
[0106] Table 1
[0107]
[0108] As can be seen from Table 1, the methods in Examples 1 to 15 of the present invention can all prepare 4-methylsulfonylacetophenone and / or 4-methylsulfoxideacetophenone, wherein the final products of Examples 1 and 8 are only 4-methylsulfonylacetophenone, while the final products of other Examples are 4-methylsulfonylacetophenone and 4-methylsulfoxideacetophenone.
[0109] Moreover, the conversion rates of 4-methylthioacetophenone in Examples 1 to 9, Examples 12 to 13 and Example 15 were all 100%, while the conversion rates of 4-methylthioacetophenone in other Examples were lower than 100%, indicating that the molar ratio of 4-methylthioacetophenone to hydrogen peroxide and the type of solvent would affect the conversion rate of 4-methylthioacetophenone.
[0110] Comparing the examples with comparative examples 1 and 2, it can be seen that comparative example 1 does not use TS-1 molecular sieve, and not only can only prepare the product 4-methylsulfoxyacetophenone, but also the conversion rate of 4-methylthioacetophenone is only 30%; comparative example 2 does not add the oxidant hydrogen peroxide solution, resulting in no reaction, and 4-methylsulfoxyacetophenone and / or 4-methylsulfoxyacetophenone cannot be prepared. This shows that TS-1 molecular sieve and oxidant hydrogen peroxide solution are the key conditions for preparing 4-methylsulfoxyacetophenone and / or 4-methylsulfoxyacetophenone in the present invention.
[0111] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes according to the technical scheme and inventive concept of the present invention within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
