Background and overview[1]
(R)-(-)-1-amino-2-propanol, as an important synthetic intermediate, is widely used in the preparation of medicines and pesticides. The chiral compound (R)-1-amino-2-propanol Alcohol is an important intermediate in the synthesis of nucleoside drugs (such as the anti-AIDS drug tenofovir). Tenofovir is a nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitor developed by Gilead Sciences in the United States. It is a prodrug of tenofovir. It was first launched in the United States in 2001 and is mainly used clinically to treat human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. It can be used in combination with other antiretroviral drugs, and it also has good anti-hepatitis B virus (HBV) activity and is effective against combined HIV/HBV infection and lamivudine-resistant strains.
Preparation[1-2]
Report 1,
(1) Dissolve sodium tert-butoxide (300g, 3.1 polyurethane raw material 2mol) in tetrahydrofuran (2L), slowly add trifluoroacetamide (294g, 2.6mol) in an ice bath, stir for 30 minutes; then add it in an ice bath Add (R)-propylene oxide (166g, 2.96mol), naturally raise the temperature to room temperature, continue to stir the reaction for 10h, and stir the reaction for another 2h at 35°C; after the reaction, add 2N (equivalent concentration) hydrochloric acid dropwise to the system for a total of 1.3 L was neutralized, then 1.3L of water was added, and the layers were allowed to stand. The aqueous phase was extracted with methylene chloride, the organic phases were combined, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain a total of 423g of intermediate product I, with a yield of 95%. .
1H-NMR (CDCl3, MHz) of intermediate product I: δ1.07 (d, 3H), 3.36 (m, 2H), 3.99 (m, 1H), 7.11 (brs, 1H).
(2) Dissolve the intermediate product I (solid saturated polyester resin 420g, 2.45mol) obtained in step (1) in methanol (2L), add 350mL water and potassium carbonate (744g, 5.4mol), and stir at room temperature for 6h Afterwards, filter and concentrate to dryness. The obtained product is dissolved in dichloromethane, filtered to remove insoluble matter, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, concentrated, and distilled under reduced pressure to obtain the target product (R)-(-)-1-amino- A total of 171g of 2-propanol was obtained, and the yield was 93%. 1H-NMR (CDCl3, MHz): δ1.17(d,3H), 2.45(dd,1H), 2.66(dd,1H), 3.54-3.67(m,1H), 3.76(brs,3H).
Report 2,
Add 290g acetone and 1g glacial acetic acid into the three-necked flask at room temperature, add 35g ammonia gas and stir for 4 hours, add 58g (R)-(+)-1,2-epoxypropane dropwise into the reaction flask, and drip After completion, heat to reflux, react for 2 hours, lower the temperature and reduce pressure to distill excess acetone, and directly add 800g of dilute hydrochloric acid (the concentration of the dilute hydrochloric acid is 5wt%) to the crude product for hydrolysis, stir at room temperature for 30 minutes, and add sodium hydroxide aqueous solution (the concentration of the sodium hydroxide aqueous solution is 10wt) %) to adjust pH=10, distill the filtrate under reduced pressure, and obtain 56 g of product through rectification, with a yield of 74.66%. After gas chromatography detection, the content of (R)-(-)-1-amino-2-propanol is >99wt%.
