Abstract

The invention provides a preparation method of 3-cyclopropylmethoxy-4-difluoromethoxy-benzoic acid shown in the formula I. The preparation method comprises the following step that 3-halogeno-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde shown in the formula II and cyclopropylmethanol undergo a reaction in the presence of one or more alkalis to produce a compound shown in the formula III; the compound shown in the formula III and chlorodifluoroacetic acid or its derivative shown in the formula IV undergo a reaction in the presence of one or more alkalis to produce 3-cyclopropylmethoxy-4-difluoromethoxy-benzaldehyde; and the 3-cyclopropylmethoxy-4-difluoromethoxy-benzaldehyde further undergoes an oxidation reaction to produce 3-cyclopropylmethoxy-4-difluoromethoxy-benzoic acid shown in the formula I. The preparation method has good reaction selectivity and a high reaction yield, adopts reagents having low costs, allows mild reaction conditions, and has safe and controllable processes. In the whole reaction process, highly toxic reagents and solvents are not used and thus the preparation method satisfies environmental protection requirements and is very suitable for industrial production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of medicinal chemistry, in particular to the synthesis of pharmaceutical intermediates, more specifically to the preparation of 3-cyclopropylmethoxy-4-difluoromethoxybenzoic acid. Background technique [0002] Phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) is a major enzyme involved in cAMP metabolism in immune, inflammatory, and airway smooth muscle cells. Since cAMP can lead to bronchial smooth muscle relaxation and lung inflammation, inhibition of PDE4 can reduce the release of inflammatory mediators, thereby inhibiting the damage to lung tissue caused by respiratory diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma. There are two isoenzymes of PDE4, namely H-PDE4 and L-PDE4, the inhibition of the former can lead to gastrointestinal adverse reactions, while the inhibition of the latter can produce the expected therapeutic effect. [0003] Recently, the inhibition of PDE4 has been identified as a new target for ...
