The invention belongs to the technical field of
organic synthesis, and mainly relates to a synthesis method of pyroxasulfone intermediate 5, 5-dimethyl-4, 5-dihydroisoxazole-3-thioformamidine
hydrochloride, which comprises the following steps: reacting a compound IV with hydroxyurea under alkaline conditions to obtain a compound III; directly reacting the compound III with a chlorination
reagent under an acidic condition without purification to obtain a compound II; reacting the compound II with
thiourea in the presence of inorganic acid to obtain a compound I; according to the method provided by the invention, 3, 3-methyl dimethacrylate is used as a
raw material, so that compared with 3, 3-ethyl dimethacrylate used in similar methods, the cost is lower, and the cyclization yield is higher; meanwhile,
phosphoric acid is added as a catalyst, so that the generation of by-products is greatly reduced; finally, the compound I is prepared by directly reacting with
thiourea in the presence of inorganic acid, the yield of a finished product is up to 86% or above, the purity can reach 98%, most of used solvents can be recycled and reused, and the method is suitable for industrial production.
