Problems solved by technology

[0003] Transition metal palladium or nickel-catalyzed coupling reaction of halo(hetero)arene with nucleophilic methylating reagent is one of the most effective methods for preparing methyl(hetero)arene, but it has the following disadvantages: (1) halo(hetero)arene Hetero)aromatics need to be prepared under harsh reaction conditions, which are expensive and easy to produce a large amount of halogen-containing waste; (2) nucleophilic methylating reagents are usually highly active reagents such as methyl Grignard reagents and methyl boronic acid. Poor functional group tolerance; (3) The polarity of halogenated raw materials and methylated products is similar, so it is difficult to separate them by column chromatography

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing methyl (hetero) arene through decarbonylation coupling of (hetero) aryl formic acid and trimethylcyclotrioxane under catalysis of transition metal. According to the method, (hetero) aryl formic acid, trimethylcycloborane, a palladium-containing catalyst, a phosphine ligand, an anhydride additive and a solvent are mixed and react in an inert gas atmosphere to obtain a methyl (hetero) aromatic hydrocarbon product. The method uses stable, cheap and easily available (hetero) aryl formic acid as a raw material to synthesize methyl (hetero) aromatic hydrocarbon, can make up for the defects existing in the traditional coupling reaction of transition metal catalyzed halogenated (hetero) aromatic hydrocarbon and a nucleophilic methylation reagent, and has the following advantages: (1) use of expensive and difficult-to-prepare halogenated (hetero) aromatic hydrocarbon is avoided, and generation of halogen-containing waste is avoided; (2) the use of unstable raw materials such as a methyl Grignard reagent and methylboronic acid is avoided, and the reaction has better functional group tolerance; and (3) the (hetero) aryl formic acid raw material and the product have large polarity difference, and are easy to separate through column chromatography.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for synthesizing methyl (hetero) aromatics, which is characterized in that (hetero) aryl formic acid is used as an electrophile, and is decarbonylated with trimethylcyclotrioxaborane under the catalysis of a transition metal to synthesize Methyl(hetero)arenes, belonging to the field of organic synthesis. Background technique [0002] Methyl group is the most basic and widely existing non-polar functional group in organic compounds, and it is generally inert in chemical reactions. For medicinal chemistry, especially for many bioactive molecules, the introduction of a simple methyl group will greatly change its solubility, hydrophilicity and drug conformation, which is also known as the "methylation effect". ". Among the 200 best-selling small molecule drugs, more than 70% have more than one methyl group in the molecule. At the same time, the methyl group on the (hetero)aryl group can also be derivatized into other fu...
