Introduction | β-bromostyrene is an important intermediate for the synthesis of high efficient brominated flame retardant polybrominated styrene, it is also commonly used in the preparation of intermediates in organic synthesis. For example, β-bromophenylethane can be used to prepare the intermediate 4-(4-phenylbutoxy) benzoic acid in the preparation of pranlukast. as an anti-asthma drug, pranlukast was first developed by the Japanese Little Wild Company and was marketed in Japan in 1995. In 1999, it was found to treat allergic rhinitis. Pranlukast is a leukotriene C4/D4 receptor antagonist (lTRAs) with extremely low toxicity. It can selectively inhibit the activity of airway smooth muscle leukotriene polypeptides and has little effect on arachidonic acid metabolism enzymes, at the same time, it has no antagonistic effect on acetylcholine and serotonin, and has significant inhibition on lTC4, lTD4, lTE4 and so on. |
Use | organic synthesis, pesticide intermediates. used as pharmaceutical and pesticide intermediates |
production method | is derived from the reaction of phenylethyl alcohol with hydrogen bromide. Phenyl ethanol was heated to 110 ° C., hydrogen bromide was slowly introduced, and the reaction was refluxed. After completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was cooled and washed with water, 10% sodium carbonate solution and water in this order. After drying with anhydrous potassium carbonate and fractional distillation under reduced pressure, the 97-99 ° C. (2.0kPa) fraction was collected, and the yield was more than 90%. |
