Problems solved by technology

The existing reaction realizes direct esterification by decarboxylation of α-cyanoacetic acid, but this method is not atom-economical enough, and the amount of catalyst is also relatively large
So far, there are no literature reports involving the esterification of acetonitrile carbon-hydrogen bonds catalyzed by iron-based catalysts

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for synthesizing cyanomethyl carboxylate. According to the invention, the method employs an ionic iron (III) complex containing 1,3-di-tert-butylimidazoline cations and having a molecular formula of [(tBuNCH2CH2NtBu)CH][FeBr4] as a catalyst and di-tert-butyl peroxide as an oxidant, and synthesizes cyanomethyl carboxylate through an oxidative coupling reaction of carboxylic acid with acetonitrile. Applicative carboxylic acid substrates in the invention include aliphatic carboxylic acids, aromatic carboxylic acids and heterocyclic carboxylic acids. The method realizes synthesis of cyanomethyl carboxylate through the oxidative coupling reaction of carboxylic acid with acetonitrile under the action of an iron-based catalyst for the first time.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of preparation of organic compounds, and in particular relates to a preparation method of cyanomethyl carboxylate. Background technique [0002] Cyanomethyl carboxylate exists in many natural products and drug molecules, and is also widely used in organic synthesis. Traditional methods for synthesizing such compounds require the use of pre-functionalized halides, such as chloroacetonitrile, etc. This method It is not atom-economical enough, and often needs to emit chemically polluted halides, so the development of a new method for the synthesis of cyanomethyl carboxylate has strong practical application value. [0003] In recent years, direct esterification of carbon-hydrogen bonds has gradually become a new method for the synthesis of carboxylic acid esters. Among them, it has been reported that the direct esterification reaction of the carbon-hydrogen bond at the ortho position of the oxygen atom, the ben...
