Technical Field

The invention relates to the technical field of synthesis of medical intermediates and fine chemicals, in particular to a novel preparation method of 2-thiopheneacetic acid.

Background

2-thiopheneacetic acid is a very important fine chemical and has very wide application in the fields of medicine, pesticide and other industries.

In the aspect of medicine, 2-thiopheneacetic acid is an intermediate of various cephalosporin antibiotics, and can also be used for preparing medicaments such as cardiovascular medicaments, lipid lowering medicaments, platelet coagulation inhibitors and the like; in the aspect of pesticides, 2-thiopheneacetic acid can be used for preparing various insecticides and herbicides and can also be used as a dye intermediate; in addition, the downstream derivative of 2-thiopheneacetic acid has wide application in the aspects of plastic additives and the like.

Currently, there are three main routes for the preparation of 2-thiopheneacetic acid:

route 1:

route 2:

route 3:

in the route 1, after acetylation, a rephotography reaction is required to be carried out with strong ammonia water under the participation of sulfur and under high pressure, which relates to a high-pressure and high-risk process, and in addition, a large amount of high-sulfur and high-ammonia nitrogen wastewater can be generated, thereby bringing great environmental protection hidden trouble to production;

the first step of the route 2 is a chloromethylation reaction, the process can generate a large amount of mixed acid wastewater, the treatment difficulty is high, and the second step of the reaction uses virulent sodium cyanide, so that the potential safety hazard is great;

the second step of the route 3 needs to be oxidized by high lead acetate in the presence of boron trifluoride, and is a highly toxic and dangerous process, and the post-treatment of the lead-containing wastewater and waste materials has high treatment difficulty and high approval difficulty.

The three routes are combined to see that the existing production process of 2-thiopheneacetic acid has difficulties in environmental protection or safety, and the difficulties are difficult to overcome on the basis of no change of the original process route. Obviously, 2-thiopheneacetic acid is an extremely important medicine, pesticide and fine chemical, and an efficient, green and safe production process is urgently needed to be developed.

An effective solution to the problems in the related art has not been proposed yet.
