Problems solved by technology

[0010] The above three routes have the following disadvantages: the highly toxic compound methyl vinyl ketone is used as the starting material, and methyl vinyl ketone is strongly irritating to the eyes, skin, mucous membranes and upper respiratory tract, and is not easy to handle during use; the route one is in In the preparation process, chiral resolution is required, which is not suitable for industrialized large-scale production, and the overall yield of the route is low; route 2 requires the use of chiral resolution reagents, and the yield of this process is low, resulting in a large waste of materials and increased costs; Route 3 uses heavy metal ruthenium to catalyze asymmetric reductive amination, which is costly and environmentally unfriendly
[0013] This route constructs a diazepane skeleton through chiral starting materials, and is further applied to the synthesis of chiral compound Suvorexan, avoiding chiral separation and the use of chiral catalysts, with mild reaction conditions and high ee value, but There are shortcomings such as cumbersome steps in the route

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for preparing an intermediate of Suvorexan. technical background [0002] Orexins (orexins) are neuropeptides that are related to the regulation of the sleep-wake cycle and play an important role in keeping people awake. Suvorexant (Suvorexant) is an Orexins (orexin) receptor antagonist, the drug by blocking Orexins (orexin) to transmit the message, and achieve the effect of improving patients' sleep. 2014.08.13, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Merck's new insomnia drug suvorexant (trade name Belsomra) for the market. [0003] The following literature reports the synthetic route of this compound: [0004] (1) the synthetic route of US2008 / 132490 report is as follows: [0005] [0006] (2) The synthetic route reported by Org.Process Res.Dev.2011, 15, 367-375 is as follows: [0007] [0008] (3) The synthetic routes reported in WO2012148553 and J.Am.Chem.Soc.2011, 133, 8362-8371 are a...
