The invention relates to the field of
organic chemistry, and particularly discloses a synthetic method of
berberine hydrochloride. The synthesis method of
berberine hydrochloride comprises the following steps: S1, carrying out
reductive amination reaction on bromohomopiperony lamine and o-veratraldehyde to synthesize an intermediate II; s2, carrying out Suzuki
coupling reaction on the intermediate II and an organic
boron compound under the
catalysis of a
palladium metal organic matter to synthesize an intermediate III; s3, the intermediate III and organic
chloride are subjected to an amino chlorination reaction, and an intermediate IV is synthesized; s4, carrying out intramolecular atom transfer radical addition and intramolecular Friedel-Crafts
alkylation cascade reaction on the intermediate IV in a mixed
solvent under the
catalysis of a
copper catalyst to synthesize an intermediate V; and S5, carrying out oxidative
aromatization reaction on the intermediate V and
iodine under the
catalysis of alkali to synthesize
berberine hydrochloride. The synthesis process is simpler,
reaction conditions are easier to control, the yield is high, and the method is suitable for industrial production.
