[0003] In 2002, Jeffrey reported a two-step reaction to prepare compound III. The author used highly toxic sodium cyanide to prepare intermediate IV with a yield of 89%, and then hydrolyzed it with lithium hydroxide to synthesize compound III, with a hydrolysis yield of 66%. In 2023, patent CN115650903A used ammonium carbonate and trimethylsilyl cyanide to synthesize intermediate IV, and then prepared compound III with potassium hydroxide. In 2003, patent CN1122022C used zinc iodide as a catalyst for synthesis, which was expensive and costly. Advantages of this route: In the first step, trimethylsilyl cyanide and ammonium chloride were used to prepare compound II with a yield of 98%, and the purity reached 99%, avoiding the use of highly toxic sodium cyanide and potassium cyanide, which is safer, does not require the addition of catalysts in the experiment, and is more suitable for factory production. In the second step, concentrated hydrochloric acid is used to hydrolyze the cyanide group to obtain compound III with a yield of 96% and a purity of 99%. No other reagents or solvents are required, which saves costs and is more environmentally friendly.
