Paragraph 0044-0050; 0054-0057, (2022/03/17)
The invention belongs to the field of organic synthesis, and particularly relates to a synthesis method of 13-methyl berberine alkaloid. The method comprises the following steps: reaction a: taking arylethylamine and aryl formaldehyde as main starting raw materials, and reacting in the presence of other auxiliary materials to obtain secondary amine hydrochloride; and reaction b: taking secondary amine hydrochloride and pyruvic aldehyde as main raw materials, and reacting in the presence of other auxiliary materials to obtain the 13-methyl berberine alkaloid. According to the invention, aryl ethylamine and aryl formaldehyde are used as raw materials to synthesize secondary amine hydrochloride, and then the secondary amine hydrochloride and pyruvic aldehyde are subjected to Pickering-Schengger reaction/Friedel-Crafts hydroxyalkylation reaction/dehydration reaction/oxidation reaction in an anhydrous formic acid solution under the assistance of a dewatering agent and an oxidizing agent, so that the 13-methylberberine alkaloid is prepared at the yield of more than 80%, and the synthesis steps are simplified and easy to operate; and various expensive metal catalysts and excessive acid catalysis are not needed, the productivity is high, and the cost is low.
