Problems solved by technology

In addition to the extremely harmful concentrated sulfuric acid, this process also uses extremely toxic acetonitrile. Acetonitrile is easily poisoned due to inhalation, ingestion, and skin absorption, which is not conducive to the health of workers and is not suitable for industrial production.
2. China Journal of Pharmaceutical Industry, 2005, 32(2), 730-731, using 7-ethyltryptol and methyl 3-oxopentanoate as raw materials, using concentrated sulfuric acid as a catalyst and dehydrating agent, in a mixed solvent of methanol and toluene Preparation of etodolac methyl ester in the middle, the yield is 82.7%, the yield of this process is not high, and also adopted the highly harmful concentrated sulfuric acid
[0007] Above-mentioned with 7-ethyltryptol and methyl 3-oxopentanoate as raw material, concentrated sulfuric acid is dehydrating agent, is the main method of industrially preparing methyl etodolac, but there is the big problem of waste acid pollution in this method, and concentrated Sulfuric acid is easy to cause the oxidation of nitrogen-containing products such as methyl etodolac to produce impurities and affect the appearance of the product

Abstract

The invention provides a method for preparing etodolac methyl ester, which relates to the technical field of organic synthesis. The method provided by the invention comprises the following steps: (1) after the reaction raw materials are mixed, a ring closure reaction is carried out at 20-25° C. to obtain a reaction liquid; the reaction raw materials include 7-ethyltryptol, 3-oxopentanoic acid Methyl ester, trimethylhalosilane and methanol, excluding concentrated sulfuric acid; the trimethylhalosilane is trimethylchlorosilane or trimethylbromosilane; (2) cooling the reaction solution to 10-15°C , and filtered to obtain etodolac methyl ester and mother liquor. The method provided by the invention has high yield and does not use concentrated sulfuric acid which is extremely harmful and easily causes product oxidation. Further, the present invention further improves the product yield through the continuous application of the mother liquor, can obtain almost quantitative products, reduces the workload of solvent treatment, and is easy to operate; and the trimethylhalosilane is easy to recover and recycle.
