Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of drug synthesis, and in particular to an intermediate compound of Tubuterol, Tubuterol and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Tubuterol is an important pharmaceutical compound, its chemical name is 2-(butylamino)-1-(2-chlorophenyl)ethanol, and its molecular formula is C 12 H 18 ClNO, molecular weight is 227.73, chemical structure is:
[0003] The synthetic routes reported so far mainly include the following: (1) MAGlushkovaa et al. used o-chlorobenzaldehyde and potassium tert-butoxide as raw materials to synthesize tubutrol through intramolecular cyclization, alkaline ring opening and other steps. This route has many reaction steps, high process requirements, and is difficult to implement industrially, which has become one of the key problems restricting its large-scale production. (2) Synthetic route using 2-chloro-bromobenzene as raw material: This route involves multiple steps such as bromine substitution, oxidation, tert-butylamine substitution and reduction. The reaction process is complicated and requires the repeated use of dangerous reagents such as strong acids, resulting in increased costs, high operational difficulty, and easy production of by-products. The yield is low and it is difficult to meet the needs of industrial production. (3) Song Hui et al. used o-chloroacetophenone as the starting material to prepare the target product through liquid bromine substitution, reduction and tert-butylamine substitution reactions. However, this method has complex experimental operations and requires the use of dangerous chemicals such as strong acids, resulting in large amounts of waste emissions. It does not conform to the concept of green chemistry, and there are many impurities in the reaction process, which affects the purity and yield of the product. (4) Huang Lumin et al. also used o-chloroacetophenone as the starting material and obtained the target product through liquid bromine substitution, tert-butylamine substitution, and sodium borohydride reduction. Although this route is relatively short, it still has environmental pollution problems, such as high wastewater toxicity and the need to use controlled reagents such as chloroform and high-concentration hydrochloric acid, which further aggravates the environmental burden of the reaction and is not conducive to industrial promotion.
[0004] In summary, the existing synthesis process of tubuterol generally has the following technical problems: multiple reaction steps and harsh conditions lead to complex processes and difficult operations; the use of hazardous chemicals such as strong acids and controlled reagents increases safety risks and environmental pressures; many by-products and low yields affect product purity and economic efficiency; serious environmental pollution does not meet the requirements of green chemistry and sustainable development, and seriously limits the feasibility of its industrial production.
[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a new synthesis process for tubuterol that is efficient, green, easy to operate and suitable for industrial production to meet market demand and promote the widespread application of this drug. Summary of the Invention

During the reaction, nitrogen was added to protect the reaction. Petroleum ether and ethyl acetate were used in a ratio of 5:1 as the developing solvent. A 15% potassium permanganate solution was used for color development to monitor whether the reaction was complete. After the reaction was completed, the reaction solution was cooled to room temperature, filtered, and evaporated on a rotary evaporator for 30 min. The mixture was then distilled under reduced pressure to obtain an oily compound, namely N-tert-butylformamide. The calculated yield was 63.7% and the vapor phase purity was 99%.
[0053] (2) 0.1 mol of N-tert-butylformamide was added to a 1000 mL flask. 200 mL of dichloromethane and 0.35 mol of triethylamine were added under ice-water bath conditions. The mixture was stirred with a magnetic stirrer, and then 0.14 mol of phosphorus oxychloride was slowly added dropwise. The reaction was allowed to proceed for 1 h. Petroleum ether (PE) and ethyl acetate (EA) = 10:1 (volume ratio) were used as the developing solvent. The degree of reaction was detected by color development with potassium permanganate solution. After the reaction was completed, a saturated aqueous sodium carbonate solution was added to terminate the reaction. After stirring at 0°C for 1 hour, the organic layer was separated, and the aqueous phase was extracted three times with 30 mL of DCM and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The reaction solution was cooled to room temperature, filtered, and rotary evaporated on a rotary evaporator for 30 min. The product was then distilled under reduced pressure to obtain a colorless liquid with a foul odor, i.e., tert-butyl isocyanide. The yield was calculated to be 98.6% and the gas phase purity was 99%.
[0054] (3) Add 0.005 mol of o-chlorobenzaldehyde to a 100 mL three-necked flask, control the temperature below 30°C, first add 0.005 mol of acetic acid, and stir at 25°C for 30 min; then slowly add 0.01 mol of tert-butyl isocyanide dropwise, controlling the addition time between 20 and 30 min. After the addition is complete, slowly add 10 mL of water to precipitate a white precipitate. If no white precipitate is precipitated, continue to slowly add 20 mL of ethyl acetate, then transfer the entire mixed solution to a separatory funnel, wash the aqueous layer with ethyl acetate several times, collect the organic phase, and dry it over anhydrous sodium sulfate. Cool the reaction solution to 10-15°C, filter, and dry the solvent on a rotary evaporator. Dry it in a vacuum drying oven to obtain a white foamy solid with a calculated yield of 93.1% and an HPLC purity of 98.5%.
