Abstract

A method for synthesizing first-generation Grubbs catalyst relates to catalyst, and a method for synthesizing compound RuCl2 (=CHPh) (Cy3) 2, namely the first-generation Grubbs catalyst in China is provided. The method takes cheap and easily-obtained trivalent halide of ruthenium RuX3 nH2O as the raw material, the operation steps are simple and safe, and the yield rate is high. Firstly, the raw material of the trivalent halide of ruthenium RuX3 nH2O reacts with substituted cyclohexadiene in alcohol, bivalent compound of ruthenium [RuX2 (p-cymene)] 2 is produced, then the product reacts with COD (1, 5-cyclooctadiene) and weak base in alcohol, zero-valent compound of ruthenium Ru (p-cymene)(COD) is produced, then the product reacts with PCy3 and PhCHCl2 in varsol, and the first-generation Grubbs catalyst RuCl2 (=CHPh) (Cy3) 2 can be produced.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a kind of catalyst, relate in particular to a kind of carbene compound RuCl of ruthenium with good olefin metathesis catalytic activity 2 (=CHPh)(PCy 3 ) 2 (Cy 3 is tricyclohexyl), that is, the synthetic method of the first generation Grubbs catalyst (Ma Yuguo, University Chemistry, 2006, 21, 1) described in China. Background technique [0002] Metal carbene compounds are a class of metal alkylene compounds containing metal-carbon double bonds (M=C). The reason why metal carbene compounds have attracted much attention is that they can effectively catalyze various types of olefin metathesis reactions. Synthesis of complex molecules that chemists struggled to do became a breeze. Among these metal carbene metathesis catalysts, the ruthenium carbene compound RuCl 2 (=CHPh)(PCy 3 ) 2 (i.e. the first generation of Grubbs catalyst) has attracted people's attention in particular, it not only has good functional group tol...
