Uses | 2-phenylethylbenzoic acid can be used as an intermediate in pharmaceutical synthesis, such as as a neurodrug amitriptyline intermediate compound, amitriptyline (also known as amitriptyline, ilaval, amicycloheptane, etc.), is an important clinical drug, it can be used to treat anxiety or mobility depression, panic disorder, emotional tension, mental disorders or gastrointestinal neurosis and other mental diseases. The intermediate of amitriptyline in medicine. |
preparation | the preparation of 2-phenylethylbenzoic acid is as follows: to an appropriate amount of two-component organic solvent at room temperature (volume ratio of 1:3 1, A mixture of 4-dioxane and acetonitrile) is added with 100mmol of the compound of the above formula (I), 100mmol of the compound of the above formula (II), 8mmol of catalyst bis (cyanomethyl) palladium dichloride, 10mmol of nitrogen polydentate ligand, 180mmol of oxidant bis (trifluoroacetic acid) iodobenzene and 200mmol of organic base dimethylaminopyridine, the temperature is increased to 70°C, and the reaction is stirred at this temperature for 24 hours. After the reaction is over, filter while hot, cool the filtrate naturally to room temperature, adjust the pH value to neutral, and then wash it with sufficient saturated sodium carbonate aqueous solution for 2-4 times, combine the organic phases, and cool down to 2-6°C. The solid is precipitated, filtered and fully washed with anhydrous ethanol, and dried in vacuum to obtain a white crystalline compound of the above formula (III) 2-phenylethylbenzoic acid with a yield of 97.2%,HPLC analysis showed that its purity was 98.7%. |
production method | is obtained from phthalic anhydride through condensation, hydrolysis, hydrogenation, and acid neutralization. (1) Condensation of phthalic anhydride and phenylacetic acid to obtain benzylidene phthalide anhydride. (2) Hydrolysis, hydrogenation, acid neutralization benzylidene phthalide anhydride is hydrolyzed into sodium o-benzoacetyl benzoate, and then hydrogenated to obtain o-β-phenylethyl benzoate sodium, neutralized with hydrochloric acid, and refined with ethanol to obtain o-β-phenylethyl benzoic acid. |
