Preparation method of ethinylestradiol
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of preparation of medicines, and particularly relates to a preparation method of ethinylestradiol.
Background
Ethinylestradiol, which is known as Ethinylestradiol in English and 3-hydroxy-19-nor-17 alpha-pregna-1, 3,5(10) -triene-20-alkyne-17-ol in chemical name, is an oral effective potent estrogen, supplements the insufficiency of estrogen, treats female gonad dysfunction, amenorrhea, climacteric syndrome and the like, can inhibit ovulation by being used together with progestational hormones, can be used as a contraceptive, and can also treat amenorrhea and infertility of gonad dysfunction and infertility of multi-follicular ovary caused by the insufficiency of gonadotropin secretion.
The preparation method of ethinyl estradiol in national raw material medicine process compilation comprises the steps of performing azeotropic dehydration on potassium hydroxide, isobutanol and toluene, reacting with acetylene to prepare potassium ethinyl, and finally reacting with estrone to obtain the ethinyl estradiol, wherein the reaction route is as follows:
Figure BDA0002526535380000011
the method for preparing potassium acetylene by utilizing toluene azeotropic dehydration has low production efficiency and high energy consumption, and is not beneficial to industrial production.
The traditional preparation method of the ethinyl estradiol also introduces an ethynyl group by using a Grignard reagent or a lithium reagent, firstly uses the acetylene to prepare the Grignard reagent or the lithium reagent, and then reacts with the estrone to obtain the ethinyl estradiol. The reaction route is as follows:
