4-nitroimidazole and preparation method thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to organic compound field, particularly, relate to a kind of 4-nitroimidazole and preparation method thereof.
Background technology
As everyone knows, imidazole structure unit is extensively present in the chemical structure of medicine, such as: disclose the primary structure fragment that 4-nitroimidazole is Hepatoma therapy and breast cancer medicines in WO2012166778; The primary structure fragment that 4-amido imidazoles is enhancing development medicine is disclosed in US6828331.Therefore, synthesize imidazole derivative is a focus in pharmaceutical chemistry and organic chemistry always.
In one section of document (Khim.Geterotski.Soedin., 1970, No.4,503-507), report the synthetic method of 4-nitroimidazole, at 30-40 DEG C, concentrated nitric acid is added in imidazoles, then, under the condition of ice bath, drips the vitriol oil in this solution.Gained reaction system is heated to 75 DEG C, and insulation reaction 1 hour.Again reaction system is cooled, and add the mixing solutions of concentrated nitric acid and the vitriol oil.Gained reaction system reheats to 75 DEG C, and insulation reaction 1 hour, reaction solution is poured in frozen water, and solid is separated out, and filters, and washing, drying obtains 4-nitroimidazole, productive rate 73%.
In another section of document (J.Phys.Chem.1995,99,5009-5015), report, is dissolved in imidazoles in concentrated nitric acid, and is cooled to 0-5 DEG C, drips the vitriol oil.Dropwise, gained reaction system refluxes 2 hours, is cooled to room temperature and pours in frozen water, filters, and washing, drying obtains 4-nitroimidazole, productive rate 60%.
These two kinds of methods above, concentrated nitric acid amount used is comparatively large, is generally the 3-4 equivalent of imidazoles.When reaction is heated to more than 75 DEG C, reaction can acutely be caused, and releases a large amount of heat, the spontaneous rising of temperature of reaction system, after temperature of reaction system is more than 100 DEG C, start to produce brown gas (nitrogen protoxide, nitrogen peroxide), and usually have the phenomenon of punching material to occur.Therefore, reaction is difficult to be controlled, and easily causes security incident.
One section of world patent report (WO2010021409), be dissolved in by imidazoles in the vitriol oil, gained reaction heat is heated to 70 DEG C, and then instills concentrated nitric acid.After dripping off, reaction solution is warming up to 100 DEG C again, insulation reaction 5 hours.Pour in frozen water after reaction solution cooling, and use ammonia neutralization.Solid precipitation, filtration, washing, drying obtain 4-nitroimidazole, productive rate 78%.
This section of world patent above, concentrated nitric acid amount used is comparatively large, is generally the 3-4 equivalent of imidazoles, and long reaction time.When we repeat this operation in pilot plant test, find that reaction is at 70 DEG C, reaction is comparatively slow, and when temperature rises to 100 DEG C, reaction is accelerated, the rising that temperature is spontaneous, and has brown gas (nitrogen protoxide, nitrogen peroxide) to release.Although, the method drips concentrated nitric acid after reaction system heats up, control temperature of reaction preferably, avoid punching material phenomenon, but it is long to drip the concentrated nitric acid time, and in reaction process, still have part concentrated nitric acid to decompose generation toxic gas, therefore, the method is not suitable for scale operation 4-nitroimidazole.
