Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To study the synthesis of trandolapril. METHODS: Trandolapril was synthesized from 1,1,3,3-tetra-methoxypropane by fractional hydrolysation, condensation, dehydration, Diels-Alder reaction, high pressure hydrogenation, cyclizatiohydrolysation, esterification, chiral resolution on silica gel column and hydrogenation with catalyst. RESULTS: Structures of key intermediates were confirmed by MS and 1H-NMR data. The structure of trandolapril was identified by MS, IR, NMR and elemental analysis. CONCLUSION: Each step in this route was easily operated and the yield was higher than that reported. This method was successful without using expensive reagents and had the potential for industry.
