The invention discloses a synthesis and purification method of
tildipirosin. The method comprises the following steps of dissolving
tylosin phosphate in an
organic solvent, adding
formic acid and
piperidine, and performing a heating reaction; performing cooling, adding water and
hydrobromic acid, and performing standing for layering; hydrolyzing an
aqueous solution A, performing cooling, adding the
organic solvent, and performing standing for layering; adding alkali into a water phase to adjust the pH value to 6.5-7.0, adding the
organic solvent and alkali to adjust the pH value to be greater than 13, performing standing for layering to obtain a filtrate, and controlling the
water content to be less than 0.1% through atmospheric
distillation; adding
triphenylphosphine and
pyridine, performing heating, dropwise adding an
iodine solution, continuously reacting, performing cooling, adding alkali for
quenching, and performing standing for layering; adding an alkali catalyst and
piperidine into the filtrate C, performing a heating reaction, performing cooling, adding acid to adjust the pH value to 6.20-6.80, and performing standing for layering; adding the organic
solvent into the water phase, and performing standing for layering; and continuously adding the organic
solvent and the alkali into the water phase to adjust the pH value to be greater than 13, and performing standing for layering to obtain a filtrate D. The method is simple to operate, mild in reaction condition, low in cost and high in product yield, and the purity and content of the obtained
tildipirosin are both greater than 99%; and the method is beneficial to industrial production.
