-
Paragraph 0098-0100, (2020/03/06)
The invention relates to a new preparation method of a febuxostat intermediate. The method includes: taking cheap 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde as an initial raw material, firstly preparing aldoxime from 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde and hydroxylamine hydrochloride, then adding a corresponding thio reagent, and preparing a compound 4-hydroxythiobenzamide (152A1-00) by Beckmann rearrangement reaction; utilizing one-pot process, adopting cheap 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde as an initial raw material, carrying out a series of reactions, and then performing cyclization with 2-halogenated ethyl acetoacetate to obtain ethyl 2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-4-methyl-5-thiazolecarboxylate or different salt forms (152A2x) thereof; and using isobutyl sulfonate (152H1x) with more easily controllable quality to replace bromo-isobutane soas to prepare ethyl 2-(3-formyl-4-isobutoxyphenyl)-4-methyl-5-thiazolecarboxylate (152A4-00). In conclusion, the method provided by the invention is more beneficial to safe, simple and cost-efficientindustrial scale preparation of the febuxostat intermediate with higher purity.

Page/Page column 8, (2010/09/18)
The invention is directed to processes for producing an alkyl halide, preferably isobutyl bromide. In one embodiment, the process comprises the steps of: (a) contacting an alcohol with a hydrogen halide in a reactor at elevated temperature under conditions effective to form an initial product mixture comprising the alkyl halide, the alcohol, the hydrogen halide and water; (b) cooling the initial product mixture to form a cooled organic phase positioned above a cooled aqueous phase; (c) separating the cooled organic phase from the cooled aqueous phase. The process preferably further comprises a step of: (d) heating at least a portion of the cooled aqueous phase under conditions effective to form additional alkyl halide.

The kinetics of the reactions of n-C3H7, isoC3H7, n-C4H9, isoC4H9, sec-C4H9 and tert-C4H9 radicals, R, with HBr have been investigated in a beatable tubular reactor coupled to a photoionization mass spectrometer. The reactions were studied by a time-resolved technique under pseudo-first-order conditions, where the rate constants of R + HBr reactions were obtained by monitoring the decay of the radical as a function of time. The radical was photogenerated in situ in the flow reactor by pulsed 248 nm exciplex laser radiation. All six reactions were studied separately over a wide range of temperatures and, in these temperature ranges, the rate constants determined were fitted to an Arrhenius expression (error limits stated are 1σ + Students t values, units cm3 molecule-1 s-1): k(n-C3H7) = (1.6 ± 0.2) × 10-12 exp[+(5.4 ± 0.2) kJ mol-1/RT], k(isoC3H7) = (1.4 ± 0.2) × 10-12 exp[+(6.9 ± 0.2) kJ mol-1/RT], k(n-C4H9) = (1.3 ± 0.2) × 10-12 exp[+(6.4 ± 0.4) kJ mol-1/RT], k(isoC4H9) = (1.4 ± 0.2) × 10-12 exp[+(6.1 ± 0.2) kJ mol-1/RT], k(sec-C4H9) = (1.4 ± 0.3) × 10-12 exp[+(7.5 ± 0.3) kJ mol-1/RT] and k(tert-C4H9) = (1.2 ± 0.3) × 10-12 exp[+(8.3 ± 0.3) kJ mol-1/RT]. The kinetic information was combined with the kinetics of the Br + RH reactions to calculate the entropy and the heat of formation values for the radicals studied. The thermodynamic values were obtained at 298 K using a second-law procedure. The entropy values and enthalpies of formation are (entropy in J K-1 mol-1 and enthalpy in kJ mol-1): 284 ± 5, 100.8 ± 2.1 (n-C3H7); 281 ± 5, 86.6 ± 2.0 (isoC3H7); 329 ± 5, 80.9 ± 2.2 (n-C4H9); 316 ± 5, 72.7 ± 2.2 (isoC4H9); 330 ± 5, 66.7 ± 2.1 (sec-C4H9) and 315 ± 4, 51.8 ± 1.3 (tert-C4H9). The C-H bond strength of analogous saturated hydrocarbons derived from the enthalpy of reaction values are (in kJ mol-1): 423.3 ± 2.1 (primary C-H bond in propane), 409.1 ± 2.0 (secondary C-H bond in propane), 425.4 ± 2.1 (primary C-H bond in n-butane), 425.2 ± 2.1 (primary C-H bond in isobutane), 411.2 ± 2.0 (secondary C-H bond in n-butane) and 404.3 ± 1.3 (tertiary C-H bond in isobutane). The enthalpy of formation values are used in group additivity calculations to estimate Δf H298○ values of six pentyl and four hexyl free radical isomers.

Aprotic organic superacids CBr4 · 2AlBr3, CBr4 · AlBr3, · CCl4 · 2AlBr3, CCl4 · 2AlBr3, and C6F5CF3 · 2AlBr3 efficiently catalyze the bromination of alkanes and cycloalkanes with Br2. Ethane is selectively brominated at 55-65 °C to give mostly 1,2-dibromoethane (stoichiometric reaction). Propane, butane, cyclopentane, cyclohexane, and methyl-cyclopentane react with Br2 at -40 to -20 °C with good selectivity affording monobromides in high yields (catalytic reactions).

, p. 8315 - 8318 (2007/10/02)
A versatile approach is described for the enantioselective synthesis of isotopically labelled L-leucine involving the preparation of 4-methylpentanoic acid labelled selectively with carbon-13 or deuterium in either the pro-R or pro-S methyl group followed by a reductive amination of the ketone catalysed by leucine dehydrogenase. This strategy is applied to the total synthesis of (2S,4R)-[5,5,5-D3]-leucine using CD3I as the source of deuterium.

To study the effect of β-substitution in 2'-alkyl derivatives of 9-(2-phosphonomethoxyethyl)adenine (Ia) on the antiviral activity or group specificity, these derivatives were synthesized. 9-(2-Hydroxyalkyl)adenines VIII were prepared by alkylation of adenine with suitably substituted oxiranes XIII or 2-hydroxyalkyl p-toluenesulfonates IV and VI.After protection of the adenine amino group by benzylation (compounds IX) or amidine formation (compounds X), the intermediates were alkylated with bis(2-propyl) p-toluenesulfonyloxymethanephosphonate (XI) in the presence of sodium hydride.After deprotection, the obtained phosphonate diesters XII were converted into phosphoniuc acids I by transsilylation and hydrolysis.This synthetic scheme was used for the preparation of ethyl (Ie), propyl (If), 2-propyl (Ig), 2-methylpropyl (Ih), cyclopropyl (Ii), cyclohexyl (Ij), benzyl (Ik) and phenyl (Il) derivatives.The 2'-trifluoromethyl derivative XXIIa was prepared analogously from 9-(2-hydroxy-3,3,3-trifluoropropyl)adenine (XXa), obtained by alkylation of adenine sodium salt with 2-hydroxy-3,3,3-trifluoropropyl bromide. 2,6-Diaminopurine derivative XXIIb was obtained analogously. 2'-Trimethylsilyl derivative XIXa was obtained by alkylation of adenine with 2-phosphonylmethoxy-3-(4-toluenesulfonyloxy)propyltrimethylsilane (XVII) followed by transsilylation and hydrolysis of diester XVIIIa. 9-(3-Phosphonomethoxybutyl)adenine (XXVIII) and 9-(2-methyl-2-phosphonomethoxypropyl)adenine (XXXV) were prepared from the corresponding hydroxy derivatives XXVIb and XXXII, respectively, by the same reaction pathway as derivatives I.
