Background technology
Sulfentrazone is a kind of weedicide that belongs to triazolineone.Chemical name is N-(the chloro-5-(4-of 2,4-bis-difluoromethyl-4,5-dihydro-3-methyl-5-oxo-1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl) phenyl) Toluidrin.Its chemical structural formula shows below:
1-phenyl-4-difluoromethyl-3-methyl isophthalic acid H-1,2,4-triazole-5-ketone (IV) is the main intermediate of synthetic sulfentrazone.US5438149 discloses the preparation method of this intermediate: taking difluorochloromethane as difluoromethyl reagent, salt of wormwood is acid binding agent, and DMF is reaction solvent, in enclosed high pressure reactor, at 160-200oC temperature, reacts.High-temperature high-voltage reaction, there in suitability for industrialized production, have to be many unfavorable: for example (1) adds methylene fluoride and is not easy under High Temperature High Pressure; (2) after acid binding agent salt of wormwood absorbing hydrogen chloride, become saleratus, saleratus is so decomposing water outlet under high temperature.This water byproduct plays many destructive effects under High Temperature High Pressure, as with product on N-difluoromethyl or difluoromethyl reagent itself rise hydrolysis reaction produce inorganic fluoride, the latter understands corrosion reacting kettle; (3) reaction solvent DMF is at high temperature, has especially water can decomposite dimethylamine gas under existing, the latter not only can with difluoromethyl reagent react, and in the time of post-reaction treatment, give off foul odour; (4) by product that high temperature preparation method brings into thus, brings detrimentally affect to follow-up nitrated and reduction reaction.
It is solvent that US5756755 uses glyme to replace DMF, although successfully solved aforementioned the 3rd problem, other problem still exists.
Related genera has been reported (J. Agri. Food. Chem. 2008,56,2118) like Triazolinones difluoromethylization reaction under phase-transfer catalysis.This reaction is taking THF as solvent, but this condition is to substrate sensitivity, and uses greatly excessive difluoromethyl reagent, produces a large amount of oxygen-difluoromethyl by products simultaneously, need separate with silica gel column chromatography, hindered the industrial application of technique.
US4818275 uses iron powder successfully nitro-compound (VII) to be reduced into wanted aniline product (VIII).Although iron powder used is cheap, a large amount of scrap iron slags that produce are large environmental issues.
Li MeiFang (modern, 2010,9,28) has reported and has used metallic nickel (Ni) for catalyzer hydro-reduction nitro-compound (VII).This reactive chemistry selectivity good (reducing hydrogenation dehalogenation).But the spontaneous combustion attribute of metallic nickel is a safety worries in industrial production.
US4818275 discloses 1-(5-amino-2; 4-dichlorophenyl)-4-difluoromethyl-3-methyl isophthalic acid H-1; 2; 4-triazole-5(4 hydrogen) ketone (VIII) and methylsulfonyl chloride be taking halogenated alkane as solvent; taking triethylamine as alkali XianCheng, two Toluidrins are then sloughed a part methylsulfonyl and are obtained product under sodium hydroxide effect.But there are problems in this technique, as excessive triethylamine or pyridine produce a large amount of waste water; The methylsulfonyl chloride that consumes 2 equivalents, Atom economy is poor; Yield is low etc.The solubility salt catalysis sulfonylations such as US5990315 discloses quaternary ammonium salt, quaternary alkylphosphonium salt, the method has solved direct sulfonylation, but catalyzer is more expensive, and yield is low.US7169952 discloses the direct sulfonylation of the high boiling point acid amides such as DMF and tertiary amine catalytic, and the cheap catalyzer of the method utilization has solved the problem of direct sulfonylation, but produces methane amide impurity, has affected product quality or yield.
