Abstract
Objective:To improve the synthetic route of Janus kinase inhibitor baricinib(1).Methods:3-(cyanomethylene)azocyclobutane-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester(2)was deprotected to obtain the intermediate 2-(3-azocyclobutanylidene)acetonitrile hydrochloride(3),which was then subjected to sulfonation reaction to obtain 2-[1-(ethylsulfonyl)-3-azocyclobutanylidene]acetonitrile(4),followed by Michael addition reaction to obtain 1-(ethylsulfonyl)-3-[4-(4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxocyclopentane-2-yl)-1H-pyrazole-1-yl]-3-azocyclobutane acetonitrile(5).Finally,a coupling reaction was carried out with 4-chloro-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine to obtain 1.Results&Conclusion:The total yield was 63.6%with the purity 99.9%(HPLC area normalization method).The structures of the target end product and key intermediates were confirmed to be correct by MS and 1H-NMR.The starting materials used in this method are inexpensive and readily available and the post-treatment of the reaction is simple.The new route has a high overall yield and is suitable for large-scale preparation,and can provide reference for the production of baricitinib and the synthesis research of its derivatives.
