  • Publication number: 20220056489
    Abstract: A method for the continuous flow synthesis of (R)-4-halo-3-hydroxy-butyrate using a micro-reaction system. The micro-reaction system includes a micro-mixer, a certain number of micro-reaction units that are successively connected in series, a pH regulating system and a back pressure valve. The micro-reaction unit is composed of a micro-channel reactor and a pH regulator that are sequentially connected with each other. A substrate solution containing halogenated acetoacetate and a biocatalyst solution are simultaneously pumped into the micro-reaction system to enable continuous flow biocatalytic asymmetric reduction reaction of the halogenated acetoacetate to obtain the target product (R)-4-halo-3-hydroxy-butyrate.

  • Publication number: 20220033863
    Abstract: Disclosed herein relates to biopharmaceuticals, and more particularly to a continuous flow method for preparing (R)-3-hydroxy-5-hexenoate. Carbonyl reductase and isopropanol dehydrogenase are co-immobilized onto an inert solid medium simultaneously to prepare a carbonyl reductase/isopropanol dehydrogenase co-immobilized catalyst, which is then filled into a microchannel reactor of the micro reaction system. A solution containing substrate 3-carbonyl-5-hexenoate is subsequently pumped into the microchannel reactor to perform an asymmetric carbonyl reduction reaction to obtain (R)-3-hydroxy-5-hexenoate.

  • Publication number: 20220017508
    Abstract: Disclosed herein relates to organic synthesis, and more particularly to a method for preparing a key intermediate for the synthesis of statins. The key intermediate is 2-[(4R, 6S)-6-[(benzo[d]thiazol-2-ylthio)methyl]-2,2-di substituted-1,3-dioxan-4-yl] acetate of formula (I): where R1 is a C1-C8 alkyl group, a C3-C8 cycloalkyl group, a monosubstituted or polysubstituted aryl group, or monosubstituted or polysubstituted aralkyl group; R2 is hydrogen, or monosubstituted or polysubstituted C1-C3 alkyl group, or halogen; and R3 and R4 are each independently a C1-C5 alkyl group, a C3-C7 cycloalkyl group, a C3-C7 cycloalkenyl group, a C1-C3 alkoxy group, a C6-C10 aryl group, or C7-C12 aralkyl group. In the method, a halomethyl compound and a thiol reagent are subjected to nucleophilic substitution in an organic solvent to synthesize a thioether, which then undergoes ketal exchange reaction with a carbonyl compound (V) in the presence of an organic acid to obtain a target product.

Two inlet fluid reservoirs, two inlet channels, two groups of fluid distribution channel networks, two groups of process fluid channels, an impinging stream mixing chamber, a fluid mixing intensification channel and an outlet buffer reservoir are provided on the base plate. Two fluids are fed into the two inlet fluid reservoirs, respectively. The fluids then flow into the process fluid channels via the inlet channels and the multi-stage fluid distribution channel networks, respectively. Then the two fluid streams ejected from the opposing process fluid channels impinges upon each other in the impinging stream mixing chamber. The mixed fluid is subjected to vortex or secondary flow generated by the baffles or the internals in the impinging stream mixing chamber and fluid mixing intensification channel, and finally the mixed fluid is discharged through the outlet buffer reservoir.

    Abstract: A full continuous flow preparation method of 2-methyl-4-amino-5-aminomethylpyrimidine. A mixed solution of cyanoacetamide, N,N-dimethylformamide and a catalyst is mixed with phosphorus oxychloride in a first micro-mixer, and then the reaction mixture undergoes continuous flow reaction in a microchannel reactor to obtain (dimethylaminomethylene) malononitrile. The reaction mixture is subjected to continuous quenching, extraction and separation, and the organic phase is concentrated, mixed with a methanol solution, and then reacted with an organic base to obtain 2-methyl-4-amino-5-cyanopyrimidine. After the mixed liquid is continuously filtered, the filter cake is dissolved in methanol, mixed with hydrogen in a second micro-mixer, and then transported to a fixed-bed reactor for hydrogenation reaction.
