| 摘要 |
A method for preparing an imatinib base includes reacting 4-(4-methyl-piperazinomethyl)-benzoic acid with a 2,2'-dibenzothiazolyl disulfide derivative in the presence of a phosphine derivative to prepare a novel thioester compound and preparing an imatinib base using the thioester compound as a reaction intermediate. With the method, imatinib base in higher yield and/or purity can be prepared cost-effectively. |
