Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of pharmaceutical synthesis technology, specifically relating to a method for synthesizing 3-fluoro-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-amine. Background Technology
[0002] Pyrazoles and their derivatives are an important class of structures in the pharmaceutical field. Pyrazole ketone drugs play a crucial role in the field of analgesics and antipyretics, such as aminopyrine, metamizole, phenylbutazone, and hydroxyphenylbutazone. Simultaneously, pyrazole heterocyclic compounds also possess multiple agricultural activities, including insecticidal / acaricidal, fungicidal, and herbicidal activities. There are 26 pyrazole heterocyclic herbicides with ISO generic names, including 25 aromatic pyrazole heterocyclic herbicides and 1 non-aromatic pyrazole heterocyclic herbicide. In conclusion, the synthesis of different pyrazole and its derivative structures is of great significance.
[0003] International application WO2022 / 212538A1 discloses a method for synthesizing 3-fluoro-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-amine, which uses 3-fluoro-1H-pyrazole as a starting material to prepare 3-fluoro-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-amine. The specific reaction process is as follows:
[0004] .
[0005] However, the main raw material 3-fluoro-1H-pyrazole-4-amine used in the above-mentioned synthesis method has not been industrialized. Currently, it is only available in gram-scale quantities, which are expensive and unsuitable for cost control in large-scale production. This method requires nitration synthesis intermediates, which poses high safety risks. Although continuous flow equipment has reduced some safety risks in recent years, safety risks in post-reaction processing and material storage have not been well resolved. The methylation reaction of this method produces isomers, which are difficult and costly to purify, making it unsuitable for industrial production. The method also has significant safety risks in the catalytic hydrogenation process for nitro reduction, and the precious metal catalysts used are expensive. Summary of the Invention
