摘要
以2-甲基四氢呋喃代替四氢呋喃作溶剂,间二氟苯(2)与正丁基锂、硼酸三甲酯反应得2,6-二氟苯硼酸(3),在确保收率的前提下,减少了溶剂的用量,同时使正丁基锂、硼酸三甲酯的摩尔量分别由1.14和2.16减少至1.05和1.1。然后以水代替乙醚作溶剂,3与双氧水反应得2,6-二氟苯酚(4),反应更安全。以硫酸二甲酯代替碘甲烷作甲基化试剂,与4在2-甲基四氢呋喃与水的混合溶剂中反应得2,6-二氟苯甲醚(5),收率89.9%。最后5与正丁基锂和二氧化碳反应得奈诺沙星关键中间体2,4-二氟-3-甲氧基苯甲酸,纯度99.3%,总收率72.6%。该工艺原料价廉易得,反应收率高,已实现工业化生产。
1,3-Difluorobenzene(2) reacted with n-butyllithium and trimethyl borate to give(2,6-difluorophenyl)-boronic acid(3) by using 2-methyl tetrahydrofuran(MeTHF) rather than tetrahydrofuran as solvent. Under the premise of ensuring yield, the amount of solvent was reduced, and the molar amounts of n-butyl lithium and trimethyl borate were reduced from 1.14 and 2.16 to 1.05 and 1.1, respectively. Then, compound 3 reacted with hydrogen peroxide in water to give 2,6-difluorophenol(4), which was subjected to a methylation with dimethyl sulfate instead of iodomethane in a mixed solvent of MeTHF and water to afford 2,6-difluoroanisole(5) in 89.9% yield. Finally, 5 reacted with n-butyllithium and carbon dioxide in MeTHF to prepare the key intermediate of nemonoxacin 2,4-difluoro-3-methoxyl benzoic acid with an overall yield of 72.6%, and a purity of 99.3%. The process has the advantages of low cost, easy availability of raw materials and high yield, and it has been applied in industrial production.
