Description

Preparation method of 4,5-dihalogen-1- (difluoromethyl) -1H-imidazole
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of organic synthesis, in particular to a preparation method of 4,5-dihalogen-1- (difluoromethyl) -1H-imidazole.
Background
Researches show that the 1-position N atom of the imidazole derivative has substituent groups and the 4,5-dialkyl substituted imidazole derivative has good stability, and further, the hydrolysis stability and the thermal stability of the derivative are good when the 1-position N atom of the imidazole derivative is substituted by polyfluoromethyl. The difluoromethyl group has good metabolic stability and lipophilic property, so that the solubility or permeability of the compound can be improved, and the bioavailability and metabolic stability of the compound can be improved. Hydrogen in the difluoromethyl group has weak acidity, can form a hydrogen bond, and is beneficial to the combination of a medicament and a receptor so as to improve the activity of the medicament. The 1-N-difluoromethyl-4,5 disubstituted imidazole derivative is used as an important molecular building block for synthesizing a KRAS mutation inhibitor, and has important application value in developing therapeutic drugs for malignant tumors such as pancreatic cancer, colorectal cancer, lung cancer and the like; meanwhile, the fluorine-containing imidazole carbene can be used as a key material for preparing fluorine-containing imidazole carbene with high stability, and the fluorine-containing imidazole carbene is widely used as a complexing agent and a catalyst.
In the prior disclosed preparation method of 4,5-disubstituted-1- (difluoromethyl) -1H-imidazole, the difluoromethylation reaction of imidazole has poor selectivity and low yield. In addition, the large-scale production of 4,5-disubstituted-1- (difluoromethyl) -1H-imidazoles, which typically uses freon as the difluoromethylating agent, is environmentally hazardous.
For example, the difluoromethylation of 4,5-diphenyl-1H imidazole is disclosed in the foreign Journal of Russian Journal of Organic Chemistry, vol.46, no. 6, p.903-910, 2010, using chlorodifluoromethane as the fluoroalkylating agent, in an alkaline medium in the presence of a phase transfer catalyst at 30-40 ℃ with a product yield of only 37%.
For another example, WO2020085493A1 discloses a difluoromethylation reaction of 4,5-disubstituted-1H imidazole, which uses sodium difluorochloroacetate as a fluoroalkylation reagent, and the reaction is carried out in a microwave reactor at 150 ℃ for 16 hours with a product yield of only 11%.
