The invention relates to the technical field of
medicine synthesis, in particular to a pyridostigmine
bromide synthesis method which is completed in two steps, the first step of 3-dimethylaminoformyloxy
pyridine synthesis is consistent with a traditional synthesis method, and the second step of pyridostigmine
bromide synthesis is consistent with a traditional synthesis method. A
methylation process and a bromination process are different, 3-dimethylamino formyloxy
pyridine is methylated by adopting
dimethyl sulfate, and then
ammonium bromide is added to form salt, so that a highly toxic product
triphosgene or
bromomethane is not needed in the whole process, and the method is green, environment-friendly and more suitable for industrial production, and solves the problem that the synthesis process of existing pyridostigmine bromide is difficult to carry out when pyridostigmine bromide is synthesized. The technical problems that in the prior art, the adopted highly toxic product
triphosgene is not suitable for commercial production, and adopted
bromomethane is gas at normal temperature, is liquefied and stored in a commonly used
steel cylinder in industry and is inconvenient to use are solved, meanwhile, the total yield of the synthesized pyridostigmine bromide can reach 80% or above, and the
wastewater generation amount is greatly reduced.
