Example one Experimental conditions screening of the preparation method of the invention
Now, the process of the synthesis process study of the intermediate compound 1 of the present invention will be mainly exemplified.
(1) Preparation of 6- ((methylamino) methyl) -3, 4-dihydro-2-methyl-4-oxo-6-quinazoline (Compound 1)
The reaction step is amination reaction, and the raw material 6-bromomethyl-3, 4-dihydro-2-methyl-4-oxo-6-quinazoline reacts with methylamine to prepare 6- ((methylamino) methyl) -3, 4-dihydro-2-methyl-4-oxo-6-quinazoline (compound 1). In the research, firstly, a solvent is screened, small molecular alcohol is used as the solvent, and experimental results show that the reaction is rapid in an alcohol solvent, and when 10-20 minutes, the TLC detection raw material 6-bromomethyl-3, 4-dihydro-2-methyl-4-oxo-6-quinazoline completely reacts, but the impurities are numerous and complex. In addition, according to experience, the addition amount of the methylamine aqueous solution has certain influence on the product yield and quality, in the reaction, methylamine is used as a reaction raw material and also used as an acid-binding agent to neutralize HBr generated in the reaction process, if the addition amount of methylamine is not enough, the reaction of the raw material 6-bromomethyl-3, 4-dihydro-2-methyl-4-oxo-6-quinazoline is incomplete, the product yield is reduced, a disubstituted product can be generated, and impurities are introduced; if too much methylamine is added, the excessive methylamine is not easy to remove, so that the post-treatment operation is complicated, the raw material waste is caused, and the production cost is increased. Therefore, we examined the effect of the molar charge ratio of 6-bromomethyl-3, 4-dihydro-2-methyl-4-oxo-6-quinazoline to methylamine on the reaction through experiments, and the results are shown in table 1.
TABLE 16 influence of bromomethyl-3, 4-dihydro-2-methyl-4-oxo-6-quinazoline on the reaction with the methylamine molar charge ratio
According to the experimental result, when the molar charge ratio of methylamine to 6-bromomethyl-3, 4-dihydro-2-methyl-4-oxo-6-quinazoline is less than or equal to 7:1, the reaction is incomplete, and the yield is low; when the molar charge ratio of methylamine to 6-bromomethyl-3, 4-dihydro-2-methyl-4-oxo-6-quinazoline is more than 7:1, TLC detection shows that the reaction is complete, and the yield is about 70%. According to the comprehensive experiment result, the molar charge ratio of the methylamine and the 6-bromomethyl-3, 4-dihydro-2-methyl-4-oxo-6-quinazoline is controlled to be 9: 1-11: 1, preferably 9:1, under the molar ratio, the 6-bromomethyl-3, 4-dihydro-2-methyl-4-oxo-6-quinazoline as the raw material completely reacts, the residual methylamine is less and is easy to remove, and the post-treatment operation is relatively simple.
We also investigated the reaction conditions of the key step 2-substituted-5-bromothiophene with 6- ((methylamino) methyl) -3, 4-dihydro-2-methyl-4-oxo-6-quinazoline.

Finally, researchers investigated the effect of reaction temperature on the reaction. With 6- ((methylamino) methyl) -3, 4-dihydro-2-methyl-4-oxo-6-quinazoline (compound 1, 1.2 equivalents) and methyl 5-bromothiophene-2-carboxylate (1.0 equivalent) as reactants, potassium phosphate and sodium carbonate complex base (K)3PO4/Na2CO31:2) is base (3.0 equivalent), cuprous iodide (0.05 equivalent) is catalyst, trans- (1R,2R) -N, N \' -dimethyl 1, 2-cyclohexanediamine (0.2 equivalent) is ligand, 1, 4-dioxane is solvent, TLC detects reaction process, researches the influence of different reaction temperatures on the reaction, and selects three reaction temperatures of 80 ℃, 100 ℃ and 110 ℃ respectively to react for 4 hours, and the experimental result is shown in Table 7.
