Abstract

The invention relates to a preparation method of 3-(4-chlorobutyl)indole-5-formonitrile. 3-(4-chlorobutyl)indole-5-formonitrile is an important intermediate for synthesis of vilazodone hydrochloride. 5-cyanoindole and 4-chlorobutyryl chloride as raw materials undergo a Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction and then the product is reduced by sodium borohydride / trifluoroacetic acid into 3-(4-chlorobutyl)indole-5-formonitrile. The preparation method utilizes the cheap and easily acquired reagents, has a high yield and high product purity, is simple and reliable, and has a low production cost, a large implement value and social and economic benefits.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a preparation method of 3-(4-chlorobutyl)indole-5-carbonitrile, which is an important intermediate for synthesizing vilazodone hydrochloride. Background technique [0002] Vilazodone hydrochloride was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration in January 2011 for the treatment of moderate to severe depression in adults. Clinical trial data show that its curative effect is significantly better than that of placebo, with good tolerance and less adverse reactions. [0003] 3-(4-chlorobutyl) indole-5-carbonitrile is a key intermediate for the synthesis of vilazodone hydrochloride, as reported in the Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 2004, Vol.47, No.19, 4684-4692 A kind of preparation method of compound, synthetic route is as follows: [0004] [0005] The method uses 5-cyanoindole as a raw material, under the catalysis of isobutyl aluminum dichloride and 4-chlorobutyryl chloride to carry out acrylation reaction to obtain 3...
