The invention relates to the technical field of
organic synthesis, and discloses a preparation method of bromo-
pyrrole nitrile. The method comprises the following steps: (1) mixing p-chlorophenylglycine,
acetonitrile,
trifluoroacetic acid and a catalyst, then dropwise adding
acyl chloride and carrying out
acylation reaction, and after the reaction is completed, purging with an
inert gas; (2) under the
inert gas, mixing the mixture obtained in the step (1) with inorganic salt, then dropwise adding 2-chloroacrylonitrile, carrying out cyclization reaction, and separating a
liquid phase from the obtained mixture; and (3) under the
inert gas, mixing the
liquid phase obtained in the step (2),
hydrobromic acid and
hydrogen peroxide, carrying out a bromination reaction, then extracting with
acetonitrile to obtain an
acetonitrile layer, then removing the acetonitrile, and then carrying out cooling
crystallization to obtain the bromo-pyrrolenitrile. According to the technical scheme, the reaction yield is high, different solvents do not need to be frequently replaced, and the solvents can be recycled.
