Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis, and particularly relates to an allyl amine compound and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Allylamine skeleton widely exists in natural products, drug molecules and fine chemicals, for example: the classic antifungal drugs nafitifine and terbinafine, the drug for treating nervous system diseases flunarizine and guanabenz. In addition, as an intermediate in organic synthesis, allylamine compounds are also widely used in the preparation of nitrogen heterocyclic compounds and allyl primary amines. Therefore, the research on the synthesis method of allylamine has attracted widespread attention.

[0003] The traditional construction method of allylamine is generally to use functionalized allyl compounds and amine compounds to prepare under the catalysis of transition metals, but these reactions will produce different stoichiometric amounts of harmful by-products, and the atom economy is low. With the development of research, it is found that alcohol is a relatively abundant resource, which exists widely in nature, and is cheap, easy to obtain and environmentally friendly. The most ideal way to construct the allyl skeleton is to directly use allyl alcohol and amine compounds for dehydration coupling reaction. However, it is well known that the C-OH bond energy is too large and difficult to break, so it is difficult for the hydroxyl group to leave in many organic reactions. Therefore, finding a suitable method to cut off the carbon-oxygen bond of the hydroxyl group is a problem that people always hope to solve.

[0004] The application develops a method, which directly uses Morita-Baylis-Hillman alcohol and tetra(dimethylamino)diboron as starting raw materials, does not need a catalyst, and realizes the breaking of the C-OH bond by using the Lewis acidity of the reactants themselves to couple with dimethylamine to form a C-N bond. The method does not need the participation of a catalyst, the raw materials are cheap and easy to obtain, the operation is simple, the yield is high, the by-product of the reaction is water, it is green and environmentally friendly, and has good application prospect in medicinal chemistry.
