Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of organic synthesis methods, and in particular to a method for synthesizing a chiral trifluoromethyl allyl tertiary alcohol compound. Background Technology

[0002] Organofluorine chemistry is a rapidly developing field with a wide range of applications, potentially impacting all sectors of society. In fact, fluorine plays a crucial role in pharmaceuticals, veterinary medicine, agricultural chemistry, and materials science. Particularly relevant is the emergence of drug candidates characterized by fluorine atoms, which often exhibit promising therapeutic effects. Therefore, the introduction of one or more fluorine atoms is a routine strategy in every new drug discovery and development program (Thayer, AMChem. Eng. News 2006, 84, 15; O'Hagan, D.; Harper, DBJ Fluorine Chem. 1999, 100, 127; Ma, J.-A.; Cahard, DJ Fluorine Chem. 2007, 128, 975). It is well known that the presence of fluorine functional groups in bioactive molecules profoundly alters their physicochemical and biological properties through changes in their spatial, electronic, lipophilic, and metabolic characteristics. The promising therapeutic effects of drugs characterized by fluorine atoms in humans and animals have spurred research into new discoveries in medicinal chemistry; however, constructing fluorine-containing compounds remains highly challenging. In particular, stereocontrol of the carbon center characterized by trifluoromethyl groups is an extremely challenging task (Ma, J.-A.; Cahard, D. Chem. Rev. 2008, 108, PR1.; Dale, JA; Dull, DL; Mosher, H.S. J. J. G. Chem. 1969, 34, 2543.).

[0003] Currently, the construction of chiral trifluoromethyl allyl tertiary alcohol compounds is mainly achieved through one-step addition of nucleophiles to trifluoromethyl ketones or by allylation catalyzed with rhodium (which cannot achieve optical activity), or by inducing the synthesis of chiral trifluoromethyl allyl tertiary alcohol compounds using chiral substrates (Zhang, F., Liu, Z., Liu, J., 1,8-Diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene(DBU)Catalyzed Regiospecific and Diastereoselective Reaction of Chiral N-(tert-Butanesulfinyl)ketimines and α,β-Unsaturated Trifluoromethyl Ketones.

Angew. Chem. Int.

[0072] Under nitrogen protection, cobalt chloride (0.02 mmol), chiral ligand (2S,4S)-(-)-2,4-bis(diphenylphosphine)pentane ((S,S)-BDPP) 0.02 mmol, 2,4,5,6-tetra(9H-carbazole-9-yl)isophthalonitrile (4CzIPN, 0.004 mmol), dicyclohexylmethylamine (0.024 mmol), diethyl-1,4-dihydro-2,6-dimethyl-3,5-pyridine dicarboxylate (Hans ester, HE, 0.4 mmol), tetrahydrofuran (2 mL), alkyl alkyne (0.2 mmol), and trifluoromethyl ketone (0.4 mmol) were added to a 25 mL reaction tube. The tube was sealed and the reaction was stirred at room temperature for 20 hours under a 5-watt blue LED lamp. After removing the solvent under reduced pressure, the residue was directly separated by column chromatography to obtain the product. The obtained product can be separated by thin-layer chromatography or column chromatography. The developing solvent used in this thin-layer chromatography and column chromatography method is a mixture of polar and nonpolar solvents. Preferably, the solvent can be a mixture of ethyl acetate-petroleum ether, dichloromethane-petroleum ether, etc., with a volume ratio (ml / ml) of polar solvent: nonpolar solvent = 1:2-10. For example: ethyl acetate: petroleum ether = 1:2-10, dichloromethane-petroleum ether = 1:2-10.

[0073] The regioselectivity and stereoselectivity of the reaction were determined by NMR, and the enantioselectivity was determined by HPLC. The results are shown in Table 5.

[0074] Table 5. Yields and selectivity of different trifluoromethyl ketones

[0075]

[0076] As can be seen from Table 5, various alkyl alkynes and aryl trifluoromethyl ketones are compatible with this reaction and have excellent enantioselectivity, stereoselectivity and regioselectivity. However, the enantioselectivity of the reaction with alkyl trifluoromethyl ketones will decrease significantly.
