Problems solved by technology

[0004] Although some of the above-mentioned catalysts have shown good catalytic ability in the carbonylation reaction of epoxy compounds, there are still some problems, such as: (1) There are few types of catalysts, and Lewis acid metal anions are mainly limited to chromium and aluminum, while Aluminum-based catalysts need to use more dangerous alkylaluminum reagents, and chromium-based catalysts need to use highly toxic metal chromium, which does not meet the purpose of green chemistry; (2) [Lewis acid] + [Co(CO) 4 ] - Form catalysts are difficult to prepare and are highly sensitive to water and oxygen. Synthesis, purification, storage and use require strict anhydrous and oxygen-free conditions, which are not conducive to l

[0078] Preparation Example: Preparation of Porphyrin Gallium Complex IIIa-IIIe

[0079]

[0080] Porphyrin gallium complexes IIIa-IIIe were synthesized according to the method reported in the literature (Angew.Chem.Int.Ed.2019,58,494).

[0081] Taking compound IIIa as an example, under nitrogen atmosphere, the GaCl 3 (528 mg) was added to a solution of tetraphenylporphyrin IVa (615 mg) in benzonitrile (PhCN). The reaction solution was heated to 150°C and reacted for 20 hours. During the reaction, the solution gradually changed from green to dark purple. The reaction was cooled to room temperature and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by neutral alumina column chromatography (CH 2 Cl 2 / MeOH). The eluate was washed with 1M HCl, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure to obtain the porphyrin gallium complex IIIa. Yield 82%, purple solid.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of β-lactone preparation, in particular to a method for preparing β-lactone by carbonylation of epoxy compounds catalyzed by porphyrin gallium-cobalt carbonyl. Background technique [0002] For a long time, the synthesis of β-lactone compounds has been a research hotspot. Such compounds can undergo ring-opening polymerization to obtain biodegradable poly-β-hydroxycarboxylates, thereby solving the increasingly serious problem of environmental pollution. In addition, β-lactone can be used to synthesize other compounds including acrylic acid and acrylate, and is also widely used in the synthesis of natural products. The carbonylation ring expansion reaction of epoxy compounds provides a simple and atom-economical route for the synthesis of such important organic compounds. Therefore, the reaction of epoxide carbonylation and ring expansion to obtain the corresponding β-lactone has become a hotspot in related research f...
