Abstract

The invention discloses a method for synthesizing chiral nicotine from butyrolactone, which comprises the following steps: condensing nicotinate and gamma-butyrolactone under the action of a basic catalyst, carrying out reflux reaction with hydrochloric acid to obtain 4-chloro-1-(3-pyridine)-1-butanone, inducing the 4-chloro-1-(3-pyridine)-1-butanone by (+)-B-diisopinocampheyl borane to generate chiral hydroxyl so as to obtain (S)-4-chloro-1-(pyridine-3-yl) butyl-1-ol, reacting the material with a chlorination reagent to generate (S)-3-(1, 4-dichlorobutyl) pyridine, carrying out a ring closing reaction on (S)-3-(1, 4-dichlorobutyl) pyridine and an amination reagent under alkaline conditions to obtain (S)-demethylated nicotine or (S)-nicotine, wherein methylation is carried out on (S)-demethylated nicotine to obtain (S)-nicotine. Whether methylation reaction is needed or not can be determined according to the type of the amination reagent, and the yield of the prepared (S)-nicotine is high.
