Disclosed is a method for producing (−)cis-3-hydroxy-1-methyl-4-(2,4,6-trimethoxyphenyl)-piperidine characterized in that 1-methyl-piperidine-4-one is converted into hydrobromide, subsequently transformed with bromine into 3(R,S)-bromine-1-methyl-4-oxo-piperidine-hydrobromide and reacted with 1,3,5-trimethoxybenzol to form 3(R,S)-bromine-1-methyl-4-(2,4,6-trimethoxyphenyl)-1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-pyridine-hydrobromide. By stirring the reaction solution into an organic solvent, 3(R,S)-bromine-1-methyl-4-(2,4,6-trimethoxyphenyl)-1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-pyridine-hydrobomide is initially isolated as a solid and subsequently the product is mixed with water and converted into 3(R,S)-hydroxy-1-methyl-4-(2,4,6-trimethoxyphenyl)-1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-pyridine by means of stirring. The product thus prepared is catalytically hydrogenated into a racemic 3,4-cis-alcohol and subsequently, enantiomerically pure (−)cis-3-hydroxy-1-methyl-4-(2,4,6-trimethoxyphenyl)-piperidine is obtained by separation of racemic mixtures with chiral auxiliary reagents from racemic 3,4-cis alcohol.
本发明公开了一种制备(−)顺式-3-羟基-1-甲基-4-(2,4,6-三甲氧基苯基)-哌啶的方法,其特征在于将1-甲基哌啶-4-酮转化为氢溴酸盐,随后与溴反应形成3(R,S)-溴-1-甲基-4-氧代哌啶-氢溴酸盐,然后与1,3,5-三甲氧基苯基反应形成3(R,S)-溴-1-甲基-4-(2,4,6-三甲氧基苯基)-1,2,3,6-四氢-吡啶-氢溴酸盐。通过将反应溶液搅拌到有机溶剂中,最初以固体形式分离出3(R,S)-溴-1-甲基-4-(2,4,6-三甲氧基苯基)-1,2,3,6-四氢-吡啶-氢溴酸盐,随后通过搅拌将产物与水混合转化为3(R,S)-羟基-1-甲基-4-(2,4,6-三甲氧基苯基)-1,2,3,6-四氢-吡啶。因此制备的产物经过催化氢化后形成一个外消旋的3,4-顺式醇,随后通过手性助剂试剂从外消旋的3,4-顺式醇中分离出对映纯的(−)顺式-3-羟基-1-甲基-4-(2,4,6-三甲氧基苯基)-哌啶。
