The invention belongs to the technical field of
chiral resolution of organic compounds, and particularly discloses a method for obtaining 1S, 5R-pinanol by chiral
carboxylic acid-mediated dynamic
kinetic resolution of trans-pinanol, which comprises the following steps: dissolving trans-pinanol, chiral
carboxylic acid and a
solid acid catalyst in a
solvent, stirring at a proper temperature, and reacting to obtain the 1S, 5R-pinanol. The method comprises the following steps: carrying out selective
esterification reaction on trans-pinyl
hydrate to generate a chiral ester intermediate, carrying out rapid
racemization on unreacted trans-pinyl
hydrate, after the reaction is finished, filtering and recovering a
solid acid catalyst, carrying out reduced pressure rectification on filtrate, separating a product chiral ester and recovering a
solvent, and further hydrolyzing the chiral ester in an alkaline
system to obtain optically pure 1S, 5R-pinyl
hydrate, and recovering the chiral
carboxylic acid. The optically pure 1S, 5R-pinyl hydrate is prepared in a green and efficient manner by utilizing the catalytic synergistic effect of chiral carboxylic acid and
solid acid, and the method has the advantages of high enantioselectivity, high
raw material utilization rate, good process adaptability and good industrial application prospect.
