Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the technical fields of organic synthesis and drug synthesis, specifically to α-fluoro-β-hydroxy ester compounds and their green and efficient preparation methods. Background Technology
[0002] β-hydroxy esters are widely found in natural products and pharmaceuticals and have become important chemical intermediates. The introduction of fluorine atoms gives fluorinated compounds unique physical and chemical properties that distinguish them from non-fluorinated compounds. In recent years, fluorinated compounds have found wide applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and functional materials. Among them, α-fluoro-β-hydroxy esters also play an important role in the pharmaceutical field. For example, these compounds possess important biological activities such as antitumor activity (WOPatent 2,000,069,846) and inhibition of aromatase (J. Pharm. Pharmacol. 2010, 62, 1717-1728).
[0003] The main methods for synthesizing α-fluoro-β-hydroxy esters include: (1) JT Welch et al. used aldehydes to react with lithium enol reagents to obtain α-fluoro-β-hydroxy esters, but the reaction requires the use of a stoichiometric amount of base, resulting in poor atom economy; (2) CF Barbas et al. used aldehydes to react with monofluorinated acetone to obtain α-fluoro-β-hydroxy esters, but the reaction time was long; (3) Professor Chen Qingyun et al. used TMS-OTf under reflux conditions or CuCl in toxic HMPA solvent to react aldehydes with fluorinated enol silyl ethers to obtain α-fluoro-β-hydroxy esters, but the reaction conditions were harsh. Therefore, there is an urgent need in this field for green, efficient, atom-economical, mild reaction conditions, and a wide range of applicable substrates for the preparation of α-fluoro-β-hydroxy esters.

[0041]
