Description

Industrial production method of 3-trifluoromethyl-2-cyclohexene-1-ketone

Technical Field

The invention relates to the field of synthesis of medical intermediates, in particular to an industrial production method of 3-trifluoromethyl-2-cyclohexene-1-ketone.

Background

Fluorine atoms are often applied to the structural optimization of compounds due to strong electronegativity and small atomic radius, so that the physicochemical properties of the compounds, the drug effects, toxicity, metabolic processes and the like of drug molecules are improved, trifluoromethylated products occupy a large proportion in the fluorine atoms, and the introduction of trifluoromethyl can possibly improve the polarity, dipole moment, stability and lipophilicity of target products. 3-trifluoromethyl-2-cyclohexene-1-ketone as a medical intermediate can be used for preparing 3- (trifluoromethyl) cyclohexyl-1-alcohol, 3- (trifluoromethyl) phenol and the like so as to further synthesize various clinical candidate compounds or drug molecules.

There are two main methods for preparing 3-trifluoromethyl-2-cyclohexene-1-one reported in the prior literature.

Route 1(Journal of Fluorine Chemistry,101 (2); 199. sup. -; 202; 2000)

In the route 1, 2-cyclohexene-1-ketone is used as an initial raw material, and a target compound is obtained through trifluoromethylation and rearrangement. In the third step, the reaction conversion is incomplete, and the yield is only 28%; and pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC, containing heavy metal chromium) is used, chromium is a heavy metal with high toxicity, easily enters human cells, damages internal organs and DNA such as liver and kidney, accumulates in human body, has carcinogenicity, possibly induces gene mutation, and also causes serious pollution to the environment, so that the amplification use of the chromium is limited, and the chromium can only be used for synthesis at laboratory level.

Route 2(Tetrahedron Letters, (42), 4071-2; 1979)

Route 2 uses 3-bromo-2-cyclohexene-1-one as raw material, copper powder, hexamethylphosphoramide and trifluoroiodomethane are synthesized into CuCF₃Then synthesizing a target compound with 3-bromo-2-cyclohexene-1-ketone; CuCF₃The method is unstable, needs to be prepared at present, is gas trifluoroiodomethane, needs to be carried out under the conditions of sealing and high temperature of 120 ℃, has high requirements on reaction equipment, has certain safety risk, is not suitable for amplification operation, and has the yield of 40%.

Therefore, the development of an industrial production method of 3-trifluoromethyl-2-cyclohexene-1-ketone with safety, environmental protection, low equipment requirement and good yield is still needed.
