The invention provides a preparation method of
furosemide and relates to the technical field of pharmaceutical synthesis. The preparation method comprises the following steps: (1) 2,4-dichloro-5-sulfamoylbenzoic acid and alkali are subjected to a reaction in presence of an
organic solvent, a reaction liquid is obtained and subjected to aftertreatment, and
sodium 2,4-dichloro-5-sulfamoylbenzoic acid is obtained; (2)
sodium 2,4-dichloro-5-sulfamoylbenzoic acid and
furfurylamine are subjected to a reaction in presence of an
organic solvent,
furfurylamine and the
solvent are recovered through reduced pressure
distillation after the reaction, a reaction liquid is obtained and mixed with
isopropyl alcohol, a mixture is stirred, crystallized and filtered, and
sodium furosemide is obtained; (3) sodium
furosemide is subjected to water
dissolution,
activated carbon decoloration and glacial
acetic acid acidification, and a finished furosemide product is obtained. The preparation method has the advantages that raw materials are cheap and available, the cost is low, short time is consumed, reaction steps are short, operation is simple, product quality is good, yield is high, solvents can be recycled and reused, environmental
pollution is small and the like, and the preparation method is suitable for industrial production.
