Embodiment 3

[0033] This example is used to illustrate the racemization method of α-chiral carboxylic acid provided by the present invention.

[0034] 100.0 g of S-2-methylbutyric acid was put into an autoclave, 400 ml of water was added, and 144 g of a 30% by weight NaOH aqueous solution was added with stirring. Cover the lid of the kettle, stir and raise the temperature to 135°C, raise the pressure to 0.4MPa, and keep the temperature for 5 hours. At the end of the heat preservation, transfer the material to a three-necked flask, adjust the pH to 1-2 with hydrochloric acid, let it stand, separate the liquid to remove the water layer, and purify the oil layer by vacuum distillation to obtain (±)-2-methylbutyric acid 95.2 g.

Abstract

The invention discloses a racemization method for alpha-chiral carboxylic acid; the method comprises the following steps: enabling alpha-chiral carboxylic acid with an optical activity, water and alkali to contact at 108-140 DEG C and under 0.11-0.5MPa, and reacting for 1-5hr to obtain a racemic product with racemization yield higher than 95%. The racemization method adopted by the invention is carried out under high pressure, and is fast in temperature rising and low in alkali consumption; the racemization method not only avoids shortcomings of a conventional process which is long in duration and high in energy consumption caused by temperature rising by virtue of water evaporating and concentrating, but also reduces alkali consumption for racemization; and corrosion of a high-alkalinity material mixing solution on racemization reaction equipment is avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a racemization method of α-chiral carboxylic acid. Background technique [0002] α-Chiral carboxylic acid refers to an alkyl or aryl carboxylic acid whose α-position carbon atom is a chiral carbon atom. Due to its special physical, chemical and physiological properties, it is widely used in the field of biomedicine. During use, the two enantiomers of α-chiral carboxylic acids often exhibit different physiological functions. For example, the commonly used non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug 6-methoxy-α-methyl-2-naphthaleneacetic acid. Pharmacological experiments show that the physiological activity of the S-enantiomer is 27.5 times that of the R-enantiomer, so it is the S-isomer of the drug that is used clinically. In addition to the difference in physiological activity, the toxic and side effects of the two enantiomers are often also different. For example, there is a potential acylation reaction between the acyl glucuronic...
