The invention relates to a synthesis method of milobalin or
acid salt thereof, and belongs to the technical field of
medicine synthesis. In order to solve the problem that
chiral resolution needs to be adopted in the prior art, the invention provides a synthesis method of miloabalin or an
acid salt thereof, which comprises the following steps: under the action of an organic strong base, carrying out Michael
addition reaction on a compound shown as a formula III and
acetonitrile in a non-polar
organic solvent at a low temperature of-50 DEG C or below to obtain an
intermediate product; under the alkaline condition, the
intermediate product is subjected to an oxidation reaction and a
hydrolysis reaction under the action of an
oxidizing agent, after the reaction is finished, an
intermediate product is obtained through acidification, and the intermediate product is subjected to a high-temperature
decarboxylation reaction in an aprotic
solvent to obtain a compound of a formula VI; and carrying out Hofmann
degradation reaction on the compound of formula VI to obtain the compound of formula I miloabalin or miloabalin
acid salt. The method has the advantages of high
stereoselectivity, no need of
chiral resolution operation, avoidance of the problem of large material loss caused by resolution, high chiral purity and high yield.
