Description

Preparation method of 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl methyl benzoate
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis, and relates to a preparation method of 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl methyl benzoate.
Background
Methyl 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzoate is an important pharmaceutical and agrochemical intermediate, such as nitisinone, isoxaflutole, TRPV1 receptor antagonist (CN101228131A), CRF receptor antagonist (CN101166729A), Raf kinase inhibitor (CN1283180A) and the like.
In the literature, the following routes are mainly used for preparing methyl 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzoate:
a, 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzoic acid route:
Figure BDA0001539174060000011
the route prepares an intermediate 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzoic acid, and the intermediate is directly esterified or is firstly subjected to acyl chlorination and then esterified to obtain the 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzoic acid methyl ester. This route has the following drawbacks: (1) when 4-trifluoromethyl benzoic acid is used as a raw material to prepare 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl benzoic acid, the reaction yield is only 48 percent (CN 1886374A); (2) when 4-trifluoromethyl benzonitrile is used as a raw material to prepare 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzoic acid, acid catalysis or base catalysis can be adopted. However, when nitrile compounds are hydrolyzed under acidic or basic conditions, there is a problem of reaction selectivity, that is, a mixture of amide and carboxylic acid is generally obtained, and if it is desired to increase the selectivity of carboxylic acid formation, higher hydrolysis conditions, such as high concentration of strong base, strong acid or high temperature, are required, increasing the production cost; and, base catalysis (such as NaOH) is adopted, the reaction is usually carried out in aqueous solution, the obtained product is 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl benzyl metal salt, the metal salt is dissolved in water, and the 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl benzoic acid can be generated after acidification, so that the 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl benzoic acid is separated out from the water. The alkali cannot be recycled, and additional acid is needed, so that the environmental protection pressure is increased, and the production cost is increased.
Bis, 4-trifluoromethylbenzoic acid methyl ester route:
Figure BDA0001539174060000012
the method comprises the steps of firstly preparing an intermediate 4-trifluoromethyl methyl benzoate, and then nitrifying the intermediate to obtain the 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl methyl benzoate. However, the yield is only 69% at the maximum even after optimization of a plurality of parameters due to strong competition of nitration sites (synthetic research of methyl 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzoate, Shandong chemical engineering, 2015, 44 (19): 18-19).
And thirdly, a carbonylation route:
Figure BDA0001539174060000021
in the method, 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl halogenated benzene is used as a raw material and reacts with methanol and carbon monoxide under the action of a palladium catalyst to prepare the 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl methyl benzoate (US 6337418). However, palladium catalysts are expensive and require high pressures to achieve high yields, which is a high process threshold.

Detailed Description
Specifically, the preparation method of the 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl benzoic acid methyl ester comprises the following steps:
a. hydrolyzing 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl benzonitrile by alkali catalysis or acid catalysis to prepare 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl benzamide;
b. and c, mixing the 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl benzamide obtained in the step a with a sulfuric acid-methanol solution for alcoholysis reaction to obtain the 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl methyl benzoate.
In the step a of the method, the 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl benzonitrile can be hydrolyzed by adopting base catalysis or acid catalysis, and the inventor solves the problem of reaction selectivity in the hydrolysis in the step a by screening a large number of reaction conditions, almost no impurity is generated, and thus the high-purity 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl benzamide can be obtained with high yield.
In the step a, when base catalysis is adopted, mixing 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl benzonitrile, inorganic base and water for hydrolysis reaction, and filtering after complete reaction to obtain the 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl benzamide. The inventor conducts a large amount of screening on the conditions of base catalysis, and when the equivalent of the inorganic base is 0.1-4 eq, the hydrolysis reaction effect is good.
In addition, the inventor experimentally found that: in the step a, the temperature of alkali catalysis is a main influence factor; at 0-65 ℃, the inorganic base can be selected from sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate and other inorganic bases, and the hydrolysis reaction can be carried out as long as the alkaline environment is maintained; the test finds that: when the alkalinity of the inorganic base is weaker than that of potassium hydroxide (for example, the inorganic base is sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate and the like), if the temperature is increased to be more than 60 ℃, although the 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzonitrile can completely react, the yield of the 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzamide is low, the number of byproducts is large, and in order to accelerate the hydrolysis reaction efficiency and avoid the increase of the byproducts caused by long-time reaction, the hydrolysis reaction temperature is preferably 15-65 ℃ when the alkalinity of the inorganic base used for base catalysis is weaker than that of the potassium hydroxide, and more preferably, the hydrolysis reaction temperature is 45-55 ℃; the inventor also found that: when the inorganic base is potassium hydroxide, the temperature is controlled to be 55-65 ℃, so that the nitro-4-trifluoromethyl benzonitrile as the raw material can completely react, and the 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl benzamide product with high yield is obtained.
In the step a of the method, when base catalysis is adopted, the end point of the hydrolysis reaction can be monitored by methods such as HPLC (high performance liquid chromatography), TLC (thin layer chromatography) and the like, and the reaction can be completed within 3-10 h usually.
In the step a, when base catalysis is adopted, the amount of water is 5-50L/kg 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl benzonitrile, so that the pH of a reaction system is controlled within a proper range, and the hydrolysis reaction is facilitated.
In the step a, when acid catalysis is adopted, 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl benzonitrile and sulfuric acid are mixed for hydrolysis reaction, and after the reaction is finished, extraction, washing and concentration are carried out. The inventors have conducted extensive screening of acid-catalyzed conditions and found in experiments that: the concentrated hydrochloric acid hardly undergoes hydrolysis reaction; the low-concentration sulfuric acid has poor reaction effect; when the concentration of sulfuric acid is 80-98%, controlling the molar ratio of sulfuric acid to 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzonitrile to be 10-30: 1, the reaction effect is better.
In order to accelerate the acid-catalyzed hydrolysis reaction, the temperature of the acid-catalyzed hydrolysis is 90-100 ℃; the end point of the reaction can be monitored by methods such as HPLC, TLC and the like, and the reaction is usually complete within 3-10 h.
In step a of the process of the invention, base catalysis is compared with acid catalysis: the reaction condition of the base catalysis is mild, the energy consumption is low, the base catalyzed by the base can be recycled (amide is separated out, the filtered liquid phase is an alkali solution with a certain concentration and can be continuously used for the base catalysis), and the method is more environment-friendly compared with acid catalysis; the HPLC purity of the 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl benzamide can reach 99% by acid catalysis, the raw material reaction is more complete, and almost no by-product is generated, so that the two have advantages and disadvantages, and the method can be flexibly selected according to actual production conditions.
In step b of the method of the present invention, through the screening of the sulfuric acid-methanol solution by the inventors, the following results are found in experiments: adopting a sulfuric acid-methanol solution with the mass concentration of sulfuric acid being 15-40%, and controlling the molar ratio of sulfuric acid in the sulfuric acid-methanol solution to 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl benzamide to be 3-9: 1, the raw material 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl benzamide can react as much as possible to obtain the 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl benzoic acid methyl ester with high yield and high purity.
In order to accelerate the alcoholysis reaction and reduce the generation of byproducts, so that a product can be obtained through simple post-treatment, wherein the temperature of the alcoholysis reaction is 60-80 ℃ in the step b; the end point of the reaction can be monitored by methods such as HPLC, TLC and the like, and the reaction is usually complete within 13-24 h.
In the step b of the method, after the alcoholysis reaction is completed, extraction, washing and concentration are required, the extraction is generally carried out for not less than 3 times by adopting organic solvents such as dichloromethane, trichloromethane, ethyl acetate and the like, after organic phases are combined, the organic phase is washed for not less than 3 times by using saturated sodium bicarbonate, then the organic phase is concentrated, and the organic solvent is removed, so that the 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl methyl benzoate is obtained.
In the method, the reaction end point of the alkali catalysis hydrolysis and the acid catalysis hydrolysis in the step a or the end point of the alcoholysis reaction in the step b can be detected by HPLC (liquid phase 254nm without special indication), and the reaction is stopped when the reaction of the raw materials is complete.
The present invention is further illustrated by the following test examples and examples, but the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto.
The HPLC purity of the 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl benzamide is obtained by measuring through an area normalization method.

Test example 3: screening of the methanol sulfate solution
1. Without preparing a solution of sulfuric acid in methanol
Adding 10mL of methanol into a reaction bottle, cooling in an ice bath, slowly dropwise adding 0.75g of 98% concentrated sulfuric acid (9eq), stirring for 5 minutes after dropwise adding, then adding 0.2g of 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzamide (1eq), and heating to reflux for 24 hours to generate 94% of methyl 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzoate and 6% of 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzoic acid.
Adding 8mL of methanol into a reaction bottle, cooling in ice bath, slowly adding 0.25g of 98% concentrated sulfuric acid (3eq) dropwise, stirring for 5 minutes after the dropwise addition is finished, adding 0.2g of 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzamide (1eq), heating to reflux and reacting for 24 hours to generate 27% of 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzoic acid methyl ester, and the balance of 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzamide and 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzoic acid.
2. Prefabricated methanol sulfate solution
Preparing a methanol solution of sulfuric acid with the mass fraction of 15 percent: adding 85g of methanol solution into a 500mL single-neck bottle, cooling in ice bath, stirring, and slowly dropwise adding 15g of concentrated sulfuric acid (98%); 2g (3.6eq) of a 15% methanol sulfate solution and 0.2g of 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzamide were added to the reaction flask, and the mixture was refluxed for 13 hours to produce 75% methyl 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzoate by HPLC detection and the remaining 23% methyl 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzamide.
Preparing a methanol solution of sulfuric acid with the mass fraction of 30 percent: adding 70g of methanol solution into a 500mL single-neck bottle, cooling in ice bath, stirring, and slowly dropwise adding 30g of concentrated sulfuric acid (98%); 1g (3.6eq) of a 30% methanol sulfate solution and 0.2g of 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzamide were added to the reaction flask, and the mixture was refluxed for 13 hours to produce 87% methyl 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzoate by HPLC detection, and the remaining 10% methyl 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzamide was added.
