The invention discloses a preparation method of rosmeltirol, and belongs to the technical field of
chemical synthesis. The method comprises the following steps: taking a compound I as an initial
raw material, generating a compound II through base
catalysis, and performing bromination reaction to obtain a compound III; carrying out Suzuki
coupling reaction on the compound III and isopropenyl
boronic acid pinacol ester to obtain a compound IV; then reacting with 2, 6-dichloro-4-aminophenol to generate a key intermediate V; performing diazotization
coupling reaction to obtain a compound VI, and performing ring closing reaction to form a compound VII; and finally, carrying out hydrogenation reduction to obtain the target product rosimeltirol. The conventional catalyst is adopted to replace a
noble metal system, industrial easily-available raw materials are selected to avoid the use of a
Grignard reagent, the yield of each step is up to 85% through optimization of
reaction conditions, and the purity of a final product reaches 99.8% or above; meanwhile, the
raw material cost is reduced, the emission of three wastes is reduced, the
operation safety is improved, and a reliable technical scheme is provided for large-scale production of the rosmeltirol.
