Synthesis method of netupitant intermediates

The invention discloses a synthesis method of netupitant intermediates. The method includes the steps of dissolving cyano-acetate and 3,5-bis(trifluoromethylphenyl halide) in solvent, conducting decarboxylation and cyanomethylation reaction under the effect of a palladium catalyst and organophosphorus ligand to obtain 2-(3,5-bistrifluoromethylphenyl)acetonitrile, converting a cyano group into a carboxy group through alkali to obtain 2-(3,5-bistrifluoromethylphenyl)acetic acid, and making 2-(3,5-bistrifluoromethylphenyl)acetic acid react with a methylating agent to obtain a target product. The method is easy to operate, free of side reaction and high in yield, and raw materials are low in price, easy to obtain and easy to synthesize.

Carboanion Reactivity: Kinetics of the Reactions of Benzyl Cyanide Anions with Aromatic Nitro-compounds

Rate and equilibrium measurements are reported for the reactions in methanol of carbanions derived from 12 ring-substituted benzyl cyanides with 1,3,5-trinitrobenzene to give ?-adducts.Some data for reaction of the carbanions with 4-nitrobenzofuroxan were also measured.With increasing carbanion reactivity, rate constants approach a limit of just below 109 dm3 mol-1 s-1.Intrinsic reactivities of carbanions in ?-adduct forming reactions and in proton transfer reactions are compared.
