Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis, and particularly relates to a method for synthesizing 3-bromopyridine. Background Art

[0002] 3-Bromopyridine is an important chemical raw material, used as an intermediate in the fields of medicine, pesticides and organic synthesis. 3-Bromopyridine is an important intermediate of the antidepressant drug zimelidine hydrochloride, and is also an important intermediate of the neurological drug propramoxazole. It can also be used in the synthesis of 3-methylaminopiperidine, an intermediate of the balofloxacin drug.

[0003] There are usually two methods for synthesizing 3-bromopyridine. One is to synthesize 3-bromopyridine by reacting pyridine with bromine. This method usually needs to be carried out under high temperature and high pressure due to the lack of electricity of the pyridine ring, and because bromine is a precursor chemical, its use is limited and cannot be mass-produced; the other is to obtain 3-bromopyridine by diazotization of 3-aminopyridine with bromine. This method produces unstable diazonium salts due to diazotization of aminopyridine, so there is a potential explosion hazard in the synthesis process. Therefore, how to design a synthetic method for 3-bromopyridine that can improve the safety and feasibility of large-scale production and have a higher reaction yield and product purity has become a problem to be solved.

After the reaction is completed by HPLC detection, the reaction liquid is cooled and filtered, and the filtrate is concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain a crude product of 3-bromopyridine, which is then distilled to obtain the final product 3-bromopyridine.

[0007] Preferably, the palladium catalyst is palladium acetate, palladium chloride, palladium carbon, bistriphenylphosphine palladium dichloride or palladium-aluminum oxide.
