Production method | There are many synthetic methods for the first chrysanthemum acid, but the current industrial production mainly includes diazoacetate method (also known as Harper and Campbell method) and Isopentenyl sulfone method (also known as Martel method). The reaction equations are described below. Diazoacetate method isopentenyl sulfone method (Martel method) The ethyl chrysanthemum acid (methyl ester) obtained by the above method is hydrolyzed in the alcohol solution in the presence of alkali, and then acidified to obtain chrysanthemum acid. Later, Jacqueline and others reported that the first chrysanthemum acid can also be synthesized by the orthoacetate method. The isobutylene and isobutyryl chloride are condensed under the catalysis of AlCl3 to obtain 2, 5-dimethylhexene-2-keto-3, which is then reduced by NaBH4 and reacted with orthoacetate to obtain 3,3, 6-trimethylhepten-4-acid ethyl ester, which is then added with chlorine gas, and then dehydrochlorinated and cyclized to obtain (±) cis-trans-first pyrethrate ethyl ester, and is mainly trans isomer. Add ethyl chrysanthemum acid (methyl ester) lye and ethanol (or methanol) to the reaction bottle respectively, refluxing under heating and stirring for 4~6h, and recover ethanol (methanol) under normal pressure. The recovered alcohol can be applied. The dealcohol reaction liquid is acidified with hydrochloric acid, then toluene or benzene is added for extraction, and the organic layer is separated. Chrysanthemum acid is obtained by washing, drying and desolution, which is a waxy or solid substance, the yield is 96% ~ 97%. |
