Adding 100 g of water, 40.0 g (0.4 mol) of 17 wt% ammonia water, 3.0 g of ammonium chloride and 18.5 g (0.1 mol) of 6, 6-dimethoxy-4-cyano n-hexyl-2-ketone (III 1) obtained in example 1 into a reaction flask with a stirring thermometer and a reflux condenser, stirring and reacting at 65-70 ℃ for 4 hours, cooling to 20-25 ℃, adding 17.0 g (0.15 mol) of 30 wt% hydrogen peroxide, stirring and reacting at 65-70 ℃ for 4 hours, cooling to 20-25 ℃, adding 4.8 g (0.12 mol) of sodium hydroxide, stirring and reacting at 85-90 ℃ for 2 hours, cooling to 0-5 ℃, adjusting the pH value of the reaction liquid to 3.0-3.5 by using 30 wt% hydrochloric acid, filtering, washing by 10 g of ice water, drying to obtain 12.1 g of viscous white solid, heating and dissolving by 100 g of acetonitrile for 1 hour, filtering to remove insoluble substances while the solid is hot, acetonitrile was recovered to obtain 8.3 g of 2-methylpyridine-4-carboxylic acid (I) in 60.6% yield and 99.1% liquid phase purity.
As can be seen from the comparative example, the dropwise addition of the 6, 6-dimethoxy-4-cyano n-hexyl-2-one (III 1) material is beneficial to reducing intermolecular side reactions by controlling the concentration of the material, thereby improving the yield and the purity of the final product.
Comparative example 2: preparation of 2-methylpyridine-4-carboxylic acid (I)
Adding 50 g of water, 50 g of methanol, 40.0 g (0.4 mol) of 17 wt% ammonia methanol solution, 4.0 g of ammonium chloride and 21.8 g (0.1 mol) of 6, 6-dimethoxy-4-methoxycarbonyl n-2-one (III 2) obtained in example 3 into a reaction flask with a stirrer, a thermometer and a condenser, stirring and reacting at 65-70 ℃ for 4 hours, cooling to 20-25 ℃, adding 17.0 g (0.15 mol) of 30 wt% hydrogen peroxide, stirring and reacting at 65-70 ℃ for 4 hours, simultaneously recovering the evaporated methanol, cooling to 20-25 ℃, adding 4.8 g (0.12 mol) of sodium hydroxide, stirring and reacting at 35-40 ℃ for 2 hours, cooling to 0-5 ℃, adjusting the pH value of the reaction liquid to 3.0-3.5 by using 30 wt% hydrochloric acid, filtering, washing by 10 g, drying to obtain 12.3 g of viscous white solid, the resulting mixture was dissolved in 100 g of acetonitrile under heating for 1 hour, and the insoluble matter was removed by hot filtration, and acetonitrile was recovered to obtain 7.6 g of 2-methylpyridine-4-carboxylic acid (I), yield 55.5%, and liquid-phase purity 98.6%.
As can be seen from the comparative example, the one-time material addition mode results in more side reactions between molecules and ammonia, and a large amount of polymer is generated; 6, 6-dimethoxy-4-methoxycarbonyl n-hexyl-2-ketone (III 2) is dropwise added, so that the intermolecular side reaction is reduced by controlling the system concentration, and the yield and the purity of the final product are improved.
