The invention concerns process for preparing compounds of formula (IX) :-
where R1 is attached to a carbon atom in the imidazole moiety and is hydrogen, halogen or alkyl; R2 is hydrogen or a group convertible into hydrogen under acid conditions; R3 is an optionally substituted alkyl group and n is 2, 3 or 4; which comprises reacting a compound of formula (X) :-
where n and R1 are as defined with reference to formula (IX), and R2 is a group convertible into hydrogen under acid conditions with a compound of formula (XI) :-
where R3 is as defined with reference to formula (IX) and thereafter where desired converting the group R2 into hydrogen.
The intermediates of formula (X) novel and are a further aspect of the invention. The process is particularly useful for preparing N-[3-(4-imidazolyl)propyl]- N'-[2-(5-methyl-4-imidazolylmethylthio)ethyl]-guanidine (impromidine).
本发明涉及式(IX)化合物的制备工艺
其中 R1 连接到咪唑基团中的一个碳原子,是氢、卤素或烷基;R2 是氢或在酸性条件下可转化为氢的基团;R3 是任选取代的烷基,n 是 2、3 或 4;该工艺包括使式 (X) :- 的化合物与式 (IX) :- 的化合物反应,其中 n 和 R1 如参照式 (IX) 所定义,R2 是在酸性条件下可转化为氢的基团。
其中 n 和 R1 如参照式(IX)所定义,R2 是在酸性条件下可转化为氢的基团 与式(XI)化合物反应: - 其中 R3 如参照式(IX)所定义,R2 是在酸性条件下可转化为氢的基团
其中 R3 如式(IX)中所定义,然后根据需要将基团 R2 转化为氢。
式 (X) 的中间体新颖,是本发明的另一个方面。该工艺特别适用于制备 N-[3-(4-咪唑基)丙基]-N'-[2-(5-甲基-4-咪唑基甲硫基)乙基]-胍(impromidine)。
