Problems solved by technology

The amount of Raney nickel catalyst used in this reaction is relatively large, and there are safety problems in the scale-up, and a large amount of hydrogen gas needs to be consumed. At the same time, the reaction conditions are harsh, and the reaction needs to be carried out under high pressure, which makes it more difficult to realize industrialization.
On the other hand, there is a dimer of benzofuran under the catalysis of Pd and the benzyl position of benzofuran compound is easily oxidized under the catalysis of Pd, these by-products directly affect the purity of the target product, and eliminate Spiro-2-(1,6,7,8-tetrahydro-2H-indeno-[5,4-b]furan-8-yl)ethanamine hydrochloride, the final target product (S )-2-(1,6,7,8-tetrahydro-2H-indeno-[5,4-b]furan-8-yl)ethylamine hydrochloride, the resolution yield is low, and the chiral purity is in Between 90-95%, it is difficult to reach more than 99%, resulting in larger isomers in the final product and increasing the cost
