The invention discloses a synthesis method of
rimantadine Schiff base. The synthesis method comprises the following steps: preparation of
adamantane formyl
chloride, preparation of
adamantane methyl ketone, preparation of 1-
adamantane methyl ketoxime, preparation of
rimantadine and preparation of
rimantadine Schiff base, wherein the preparation of adamantane
methyl ketone comprises the following steps: adding trimethylaluminum and
cerium formate into a flask; dropwise adding a
benzene solution of adamantane formyl
chloride so that the adamantane formyl
chloride reacts with the trimethylaluminum to generate adamantane
methyl ketone; after the reacting, pouring the reaction liquid into
ice water, then filtering and
drying to obtain light yellow precipitate which is adamantane methyl
ketone.The synthesis method disclosed by the invention has the following beneficial effects: the reaction
route changes the
route of synthesizing adamantane methyl
ketone before; by adopting
cerium formate to assist in the trimethylaluminum reaction, the
reaction conditions are mild, and few byproducts are generated. The synthesis method disclosed by the invention has the advantages of mild conditions, simple and feasible technology, small dosage of catalyst, environmental friendliness and high product yield.
