Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of drug molecule modification methodology, and in particular to a method for preparing a 6-alkylazauracil compound. Background Technology

[0002] Azauracil is a dominant nitrogen-containing heterocyclic skeleton widely found in natural products and drug molecules, and is recognized as one of the core pharmacodynamic groups in medicinal chemistry. Many marketed and investigational drug molecules, including the anticoccidial drug diclazuril and cMet kinase inhibitors, all contain an azauracil core in their core pharmacodynamic structure. Therefore, developing green, efficient, and simple synthetic methods to achieve precise structural modification of the azauracil skeleton is of great practical significance for new drug development and the optimization of drug molecules' late-stage drug-like properties.

[0003] Direct CH functionalization of the azauracil core is a core strategy for rapidly constructing structurally diverse azauracil derivatives. However, existing direct CH alkylation reactions of the azauracil skeleton still have the following drawbacks: Alkylating reagents used for the CH alkylation of azauracil in existing technologies mainly include thioylides, halogenated hydrocarbons, 1,4-dihydropyridines (DHPs), diacid peroxides, N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) carboxylates, cyclobutanone oxime esters, and alkylpyridinium salts. Most of these reagents are not commercially available on a large scale and require pre-synthesis from aldehydes, carboxylic acids, or halogenated hydrocarbons, resulting in long synthetic routes, high raw material costs, and difficulty in meeting the cost control requirements of industrial production. Secondly, to achieve the above alkylation conversion, existing technologies mainly employ transition metal catalysis and photocatalysis. Transition metal catalytic systems typically use manganese, iridium, and cobalt compounds as catalysts, which are expensive, and the metal residues in the reaction products are difficult to remove completely, failing to meet the stringent quality control standards for metal impurities in drug intermediates in the pharmaceutical field.

[0004] In photocatalytic systems, the addition of precious metal photocatalysts such as iridium and ruthenium, or photosensitizers such as organic dyes, not only further increases production costs but also adds to the difficulty of post-processing purification and environmental burden. Furthermore, existing uracil and azauracil CH alkylation reactions generally suffer from excessively long reaction times, with most systems taking tens of hours. This not only leads to low overall production efficiency and high energy consumption but also easily triggers side reactions and reduces product purity, making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale industrial production.

[0005] In summary, existing aziridine CH alkylation technology has consistently failed to simultaneously achieve the balance between raw material availability, environmental friendliness of the reaction, and high production efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for preparing 6-alkylazauracil compounds, so as to overcome the defects existing in the preparation process of 6-alkylazauracil compounds in the prior art.

[0022] This invention utilizes a highly efficient and universal method to break the C-C bonds of alkylating reagents (alcohols) to form alkyl radicals, thereby achieving the CH alkylation reaction of aziridines. The target product is obtained in excellent yield. The substrates are widely applicable, and no metal catalysis, inert gas protection, or external photocatalyst is required. The alcohol feedstock does not require pre-functionalization, providing a new method for the alkylation of aziridines.
