Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of pharmaceutical intermediate synthesis, in particular to a preparation method of 5-bromoacetyl salicylic acid amide. Background Art

[0002] 5-Bromoacetylsalicylicylamide is an important intermediate for the synthesis of labetalol hydrochloride, and its molecular structure is as follows:

[0003] There are many ways to synthesize 5-bromoacetyl salicylamide. The main synthesis method at present is to react 5-acetylsalicylicamide (5ASA) with bromine, and then centrifuge to obtain the product. For example, the document: Preparation of 5-bromoacetyl salicylamide, Xu Juanjuan et al., Fine Chemical Intermediates 36.2 (2006): 2 discloses a method for preparing 5-bromoacetyl salicylamide by brominating 5-acetylsalicylicamide with Br2.

[0004] However, the products obtained by the above methods in the prior art usually contain more impurities such as raw materials and dibromo substituents, and the product yield is low, generally only about 80%. The main impurity molecular structure is:

[0005] Therefore, in order to obtain a product with a qualified impurity content, it is necessary to control the content of the dibromo substituent, and the feed ratio of bromine and acetylsalicylic acid amide has to be reduced during the reaction, resulting in a low raw material utilization rate, which is not conducive to actual production. Summary of the invention

[0006] The invention aims to overcome the problems of high impurity content in products, low product purity and low yield in the synthesis method of 5-bromoacetyl salicylamide in the prior art, and provides a preparation method of 5-bromoacetyl salicylamide. Acetonitrile is added during the reaction, and the product is post-treated with diethyl phosphite in the presence of triethylamine, so that the generation of impurities can be effectively reduced, the reaction yield is improved, and a product with high yield and high purity can be obtained, which is suitable for industrial production.

[0007] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions: A method for preparing 5-bromoacetyl salicylamide comprises the following steps: (1) mixing 5-acetylsalicylicylamide, methanol and acetonitrile, and performing a heat-insulating reaction to obtain a mixed material; (2) adding a bromine acetonitrile solution dropwise to the mixed material, heating and refluxing the mixture; after stopping the reaction, evacuating the material in the system until the evaporated material is colorless; (3) adding methanol and triethylamine to the material after cooling to room temperature, adding diethyl phosphite after stirring, and heating to reflux for reaction; after the reaction is completed, cooling, centrifuging, and drying to obtain the 5-bromoacetyl salicylamide.

[0008] The present invention uses Br2 to brominate 5-acetylsalicylic acid amide to prepare 5-bromoacetylsalicylic acid amide, and adopts the method of adding acetonitrile to form a hydrogen bond between the phenolic hydroxyl group of 5-acetylsalicylic acid amide and acetonitrile, which reduces the activity on the benzene ring on the one hand, and increases the steric hindrance of the ortho position of the phenolic hydroxyl group on the other hand, so that the bromine (impurity A) on the impurity ring is difficult to generate during the reaction. For the dibromo compound (impurity B) generated on the acetyl group, the present invention uses a small amount of diethyl phosphite in the presence of triethylamine in the post-processing process to take off a bromine, so that it is converted into the target product 5-bromoacetylsalicylic acid amide again. Therefore, the present invention can make 5-acetylsalicylic acid amide fully react, greatly reduce the generation of impurities, improve the reaction yield, and can obtain a high-yield and high-purity product, which is suitable for industrial production.

[0009] Preferably, the mass ratio of 5-acetylsalicylicylamide, methanol and acetonitrile added in step (1) is 1:3.5-5:0.5-1. When the amount of acetonitrile added is within this range, the brominated impurities on the benzene ring can be completely controlled.

[0010] Preferably, the temperature of the insulation reaction in step (1) is 35 to 45° C., and the insulation reaction time is 25 to 35 min.

[0011] Preferably, the molar ratio of bromine to 5-acetylsalicylicylamide added in step (2) is 1.0-1.1:1.

[0012] Preferably, in the acetonitrile solution of bromine in step (2), the mass ratio of bromine to acetonitrile is 1:1-2.5, and the dropping time of the acetonitrile solution of bromine is controlled to be 15-20 hours.

[0013] Preferably, the reflux reaction temperature in step (2) is 63-65° C., and the reflux reaction time is 1-2 h.

[0014] Preferably, after the reflux reaction in step (2), sampling is performed for mid-control, and if the remaining amount of the raw material 5-acetylsalicylicylamide is less than 2%, the reaction is stopped.

[0015] Preferably, in step (3), the amount of triethylamine added is 0.1 to 0.3 equivalents of 5-bromoacetyl salicylamide; and the amount of diethyl phosphite added is 0.05 to 0.15 equivalents of 5-bromoacetyl salicylamide.

[0016] Preferably, the reflux reaction temperature in step (3) is 60-68° C., and the reflux reaction time is 1.5-2.5 h.

[0017] Preferably, after the reflux reaction in step (3) is completed, the temperature is lowered to 0-5°C to allow the product to precipitate in the form of a solid in the largest amount, and stirring is continued for 0.5-1.5h, followed by centrifugation.

[0018] Therefore, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: (1) Adding acetonitrile during the reaction can reduce the generation of brominated impurities (impurity A) during the reaction; (2) In the post-treatment process, a small amount of diethyl phosphite is used in the presence of triethylamine to remove one bromine in the dibromo compound (impurity B), so that it is converted back into the target product 5-bromoacetylsalicylicylamide, thereby allowing 5-acetylsalicylicylamide to fully react, thereby improving the reaction yield and being able to obtain a high-yield and high-purity product.
