Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of organic synthesis, in particular to a method for synthesizing 6-trifluoromethylthiophenanthridine compounds. Background Art

[0002] Phenanthridines are an important class of nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds that are widely found in natural alkaloids and drug molecules. For example, a relatively representative natural benzophenanthridine alkaloid was isolated from the Amaryllidaceae plant Narcissus asturiensis. Proven anti-HIV-1 protease activity; Humidinium bromide salt It is a commonly used multifunctional DNA / RNA intercalator; nitidine chloride with a benzophenanthridine structure It has many activities including anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor and anti-malarial.

[0003] Among various fluorinated groups, the trifluoromethylthio group (SCF3) exhibits high lipid solubility and strong electron-withdrawing ability. As shown by the Hansch hydrophobicity parameter, the trifluoromethylthio group has the highest π coefficient among common fluorinated groups. Its introduction into drug molecules can significantly improve lipid solubility, enhance cell membrane permeability, and enhance drug bioavailability. Furthermore, due to the strong electron-withdrawing ability of the trifluoromethylthio group, the modified drug molecules possess high metabolic stability. Currently, the synthesis of trifluoromethylthio-containing phenanthridine compounds has been limited. Reported literature primarily uses phenanthridine N-oxide as a raw material. The 2,4-dinitrobenzenesulfonyl chloride used in the synthesis process can react explosively in organic solvents, posing a significant safety hazard. Furthermore, only one trifluoromethylthiophenanthridine compound has been synthesized, resulting in a narrow substrate range. Therefore, the development of novel, efficient, and facile synthetic methods for preparing more trifluoromethylthio-containing phenanthridine compounds is highly desirable. Summary of the Invention
