The invention discloses a preparation method and intermediate of an
isoquinoline compound. The
isoquinoline compound is
roxadustat, the intermediate of the
roxadustat is a compound formula 2, and twonovel preparation methods of a
roxadustat key intermediate 9 are developed by taking the compound formula 2 as a
raw material. According to the first method, a compound 2 reacts with
hydroxylamine hydrochloride to obtain an intermediate compound formula 3, and then the intermediate compound formula 3 reacts with a
phosphine reagent compound formula 4 to obtain the roxadustat key intermediate compound formula 9. According to the second method,
acyl chloride is prepared from the compound formula 2, then the
acyl chloride and an aminomalonate ester derivative 7 are subjected to condensation and
decarboxylation reaction, then a compound formula 8 is obtained, and finally, the key intermediate compound formula 9 is obtained. The two methods are high in yield, using of
precious metal for
catalysis is avoided, the
route efficiency is greatly improved, the technological cost is lowered, generation of by products is reduced, and the purity of final finished products is improved advantageously;and a
route is easy to operate, the total yield is high, the purity of obtained products is also high, the
route is suitable for amplifying production, and the route is shows as the formula (please see the specifications for the formula).
