[0002] In Korean Patent No. 10-1613245, International Patent Application WO28236153, etc., it is described that 4-methoxypyrrole derivatives have good anti-ulcer activity (such as proton pump inhibitory activity) and bactericidal activity against Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), and can be effectively used for the prevention and treatment of gastric ulcers, gastritis, reflux esophagitis or gastrointestinal disorders caused by Helicobacter pylori. In conclusion, 4-methoxypyrrole derivatives are widely used in the field of pharmaceutical synthesis, and their synthesis process has great development value.

This route is long, the yield is low, the reaction contains highly toxic sodium cyanide, the risk factors are large, the raw material of 2,4-difluorobenzaldehyde is relatively expensive, and a large amount of ammonia and concentrated hydrochloric acid are used, resulting in a large amount of high-salt wastewater, and the amount of "three wastes" is huge, which is not suitable for industrial production.
