Then add the condensing agent BOP (Carter's condensing agent) (24.32 g, 5.5 mmol, 1.1 eq). After restoring to room temperature, continue stirring for 3 h. Wash with water (50 mL) and separate the liquid. Extract the aqueous phase with ethyl acetate (30 mL). Then combine the organic phases, wash with water (50 mL), wash with saturated NaCl aqueous solution (50 mL) and separate the liquid. Dry the organic phase with anhydrous Na2SO4 and concentrate under reduced pressure to dryness to obtain the crude target product. The mass of the crude target product was 14.43 g, the HPLC purity was 95.12%, and the yield was 94%.

[0077] (2) The crude target product (14.43 g) was added to a mixture of ethyl acetate and petroleum ether (V:V=1:7, 86.6 mL, 6 vol), stirred at room temperature for 5 h, filtered, and the first purified product was obtained; the mass of the first purified product was 13.28 g, the HPLC purity was 98.62%, and the yield was 92%.

[0078] (3) The first purified product (13.28 g) was dissolved in ethanol (39.8 mL, 3 vol) and heated to 45 °C to dissolve. Then activated carbon (1.3 g, 10% m / m) was added and stirred for 1 h. After hot filtration, pure water (132.8 mL, 10 vol) was added dropwise to the filtrate while stirring. After a large amount of white solid precipitated, the product was filtered and the filter cake was collected. The product was dried in a vacuum drying oven at 40~60 °C for 8 h to obtain the target product, N-(2-methylcyclohexyl)-2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzamide. The mass of the target product was 12.08 g, the HPLC purity was 99.51%, and the yield was 91%.

[0079] Test Example 1 Take 0.2g of the monomeric sweetener neotame, N-(2-methylcyclohexyl)-2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzamide and sucralose respectively and dissolve them in 99.8g of mixed solvent (PG to VG mass ratio = 6:4). Mix them evenly to prepare atomized liquids W1, W2 and W3 containing 2‰ sweetness. Sensory evaluation tests were conducted on the above-mentioned atomizing liquids, and the results are shown in Table 4.

[0080] Table 4

[0081] As shown in Table 2 above, and as indicated in Table 4, neotame has the highest sweetness, a good sweetness profile, a certain burst of sweetness, and a long-lasting sweetness that can be clearly perceived after exhalation. N-(2-methylcyclohexyl)-2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzamide has a significantly higher sweetness than sucralose, approximately 80% of that of neotame, a certain burst of sweetness, but the sweetness dissipates quickly and there is no obvious sweetness. Sucralose has the weakest sweetness, significantly weaker than neotame and N-(2-methylcyclohexyl)-2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzamide, and has a strong astringent and dry taste.

[0082] Test Example 2 Sweetener neotame, N-(2-methylcyclohexyl)-2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzamide, and sucralose were mixed evenly according to the following mass percentages: propylene glycol 37.7%, glycerol 40%, nicotine benzoate 2%, WS-23 5%, sweetener addition 0.2%, and lemon flavoring 15% to prepare atomized liquids W4, W5, and W6. Sensory evaluation tests were conducted on the above-mentioned atomizing liquids, and the results are shown in Table 5.

[0083] Table 5

[0084] As shown in Table 2, neotame has the highest sweetness and is relatively uniform overall; its sweetness can be perceived after exhalation. N-(2-methylcyclohexyl)-2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzamide is slightly less sweet than neotame; it is sweet upon entry but not perceived after exhalation, and it provides good support for the aroma. Triclosan has the weakest sweetness, significantly weaker than neotame and N-(2-methylcyclohexyl)-2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzamide, and it does not provide sufficient support for the aroma.

[0085] Test Example 3 Take the sweeteners neotame, N-(2-methylcyclohexyl)-2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzamide, sucralose in propylene glycol 37.7%, glycerol 40%, and nicotine respectively. The following are the mass percentages of benzoate 2%, WS-23 5%, sweetener 0.2%, and watermelon flavor 15%, mixed evenly to prepare atomized liquids W7, W8, and W9; Sensory evaluation tests were conducted on the above-mentioned atomizing liquids, and the results are shown in Table 6.

[0086] Table 6

[0087] As shown in Table 6, neotame has the highest sweetness, with the sweetness concentrated in the later stages, leaving a sweet aftertaste upon exhalation, but its aroma is slightly insufficient; N-(2-methylcyclohexyl)-2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzamide has a sweetness of about 80% of neotame, with the sweetness concentrated in the middle stages, leaving no sweet aftertaste upon exhalation, and its aroma is better and clearer; sucralose has the weakest sweetness, very weak, significantly weaker than neotame and N-(2-methylcyclohexyl)-2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzamide, with moderate sweetness, but it is significantly insufficient in supporting the aroma.

[0088] Test Example 4 18 mL of each of the above-mentioned atomizing liquids W1 to W9 were injected into the electronic atomizing device. First, the atomizer was used to inhale the liquid, followed by manual inhalation to assess for bitterness or burnt coil. If burnt coil was detected, the atomizer was stopped. With the heating element resistance of the electronic atomizing device at 0.8 Ω and the output power at 25 W, 50 puffs were taken with the atomizer, followed by 5 manual checks, up to a total of 1100 puffs. The results were then analyzed to determine if the atomized aerosol exhibited burnt coil or bitterness. The test results are shown in Table 7 below. Figure 7 : Table 7

[0089] From Table 7 above and Figure 7 It is known that atomizing fluids containing N-(2-methylcyclohexyl)-2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzamide are less likely to cause bitterness or wicking compared to those containing neotame or sucralose. This is because N-(2-methylcyclohexyl)-2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzamide has a lower boiling point, allowing it to atomize completely along with the atomizing fluid, leaving minimal residue on the wick and reducing carbon buildup. This extends the lifespan of the heating wire and decreases the probability of bitterness or wicking during inhalation.

[0090] In summary, the preparation method of N-(2-methylcyclohexyl)-2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzamide provided in this application involves first adding pentafluorobenzoic acid, an alkaline substance, and 2-methylcyclohexylamine to an organic solvent, then adding a condensing agent. The reaction yields the crude target product of N-(2-methylcyclohexyl)-2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzamide. After filtration in a second mixture, the product is dissolved in ethanol, decolorized with activated carbon, hot-filtered, and water is added to the filtrate to precipitate the solid. After filtration and drying of the filter residue, N-(2-methylcyclohexyl)-2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzamide with a purity greater than or equal to 99% can be obtained. Alternatively, N-(2-methylcyclohexyl)-2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzamide can be synthesized from pentafluorobenzoic acid and 2-methylcyclohexylamine in an organic solvent using mild reaction conditions, which are friendly to operators and the environment, and are low in cost, simple to operate, and have high yield and high purity. Therefore, the method for preparing N-(2-methylcyclohexyl)-2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzamide provided in this application effectively solves the problem of existing technologies being unable to effectively synthesize high-purity N-(2-methylcyclohexyl)-2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzamide.
