Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the fields of catalytic synthesis technology and fine chemical synthesis, and relates to a method for iron-catalyzed oxidation of cyclic tertiary alcohols into ring-opening acrylates. Background Art
[0002] Carbon-carbon (CC) σ bonds form the basic framework of organic molecules. Direct functionalization of carbon-carbon bonds is one of the most efficient and economical transformations in synthetic chemistry. Cleavage and recombination of carbon-carbon (CC) bonds are an important technology in industrial crude oil refining, and controlled selective CC bond cleavage under mild reaction conditions has special applications in fine chemical production and laboratory reaction innovation. In the past few decades, transition metal-mediated carbon-carbon bond activation has developed rapidly. In contrast, radical-promoted CC bond cleavage has received relatively less attention. As a complement to transition metal catalysis, controlled radical reactions have become a powerful tool for activating CC bonds. Cyclic tertiary alcohols are favorable precursors for the synthesis of distally substituted alkyl ketones and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Using a ring-opening strategy, direct functionalization of cyclic tertiary alcohols can form CC bonds. Since ring strain significantly promotes the cleavage of cyclic CC bonds, strain energy-driven CC bond activation mainly depends on three- and four-membered rings. Functionalization of CC bonds in unstrained molecules (such as 5- and 6-membered rings) remains challenging. Therefore, the activation of C-C bonds in unstressed rings is of great significance.
[0003] Several challenges remain in current ring-opening reactions of cyclic tertiary alcohols, such as harsh reaction conditions, poor functional group tolerance leading to substrate limitations (X.Wu, C.Zhu*, Chin.J.Chem., 2019, 37, 171-182.), the use of noble metal catalysis, high solvent toxicity, poor atom economy (X.Wu, C.Zhu*, Chin.J.Chem., 2019, 37, 171-182.), applicability only to the oxidative ring-opening of strained cyclic tertiary alcohols, and the difficulty and high cost of preparing the oxidant DMP (Dies Martin periodoyl alkyl ether) (X.Wu, C.Zhu*Chem.Rec., 2018, 18, 587-598.). These factors severely limit the large-scale application of this method. Summary of the Invention
[0004] Objective of the Invention: To address the problems existing in the prior art, this invention provides a method for iron-catalyzed oxidation of cyclic tertiary alcohols to achieve ring-opening acrylate synthesis. This method utilizes a suitable oxidant catalyzed by iron to oxidize cyclic tertiary alcohols, thereby synthesizing distal acrylate compounds. This invention not only provides an economical and applicable new method for the synthesis of acrylate compounds but also solves a series of problems associated with existing non-strained cyclic tertiary alcohol ring-opening reactions, such as demanding reaction conditions, low reaction yields, and the need for noble metal catalysts.
[0005] The method of this invention requires only one reaction step, does not require the participation of acids or bases, and has the advantages of having a wide range of catalyst sources, being inexpensive and environmentally friendly; having inexpensive and low-toxicity oxidants; having a wide range of and stable substrate sources; having mild reaction conditions and good selectivity; having good compatibility of substrate functional groups and a wide range of substrate applicability; being compatible with both strained and non-strained tertiary alcohols, and being able to effectively achieve the ring-opening synthesis of acrylate compounds with distal functionalization from non-strained tertiary alcohols.
[0006] Technical solution: In order to achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a method for iron-catalyzed oxidation of cyclic tertiary alcohols to open ring-opening acrylates, comprising the following steps: in a solvent, using (E)-3-benzenesulfonyl acrylate as a reagent, 1-aryl cyclic tertiary alcohol as a ring-opening substrate, peroxide as an oxidant, iron as a catalyst, and amino acid or its derivative as a ligand, the method catalyzes the oxidation of cyclic tertiary alcohols to open ring-opening acrylates by C / C bond cleavage, thereby generating acrylate compounds with distally functionalized groups;

[0016] Wherein, the solvent is an organic solvent, water, or an aqueous solution of an organic solvent, wherein the organic solvent is selected from methanol, ethanol, ethylene glycol, n-propanol, isopropanol, 1,3-propanediol, glycerol, n-butanol, isobutanol, tert-butanol, trifluoroethanol, 2-methyl-2-butanol, 3-methoxybutanol, sec-butanol, tert-amyl alcohol, 4-methyl-2-pentanol, isoamyl alcohol, 2-pentanol, 3-pentanol, cyclopentanol, n-pentanol, polyethylene glycol 200-10000, acetonitrile, benzonitrile, toluene, acetone, dichloromethane, 1,2-dichloroethane, dimethyl sulfoxide, N,N-dicarboxamide, N,N-diacetamide, ethyl acetate, 1,4-dioxane, or tetrahydrofuran; when the solvent is an aqueous solution of an organic solvent, the volume ratio of the organic solvent to water is 1:(0.1-5).
[0017] The molar ratio of the (E)-3-benzenesulfonyl acrylate reagent, 1-arylcyclotertiary alcohol, peroxide, amino acid or its derivative, and iron catalyst is 1:(2-50):(2-50):(0.002-20):(0.001-10).
[0018] The reaction is carried out at a temperature of 25–150°C for a duration of 0.25–48 hours.
[0019] The method of this invention utilizes iron as a catalyst, which is characterized by its high natural abundance, low cost, and low toxicity. Specific amino acid ligands are used to coordinate with the iron catalyst, forming a highly active catalytic species. This catalytic species, in conjunction with the oxidant and solvent, enables the formation of alkyl radicals from cyclic tertiary alcohols to attack (E)-3-benzenesulfonyl acrylate reagents, exhibiting high activity and selectivity. Furthermore, the method of this invention uses mild reagents and a mild environment, overcoming the problem of harsh reaction conditions; it also solves the difficulty of opening unstrained rings; the reaction directly attacks (E)-3-benzenesulfonyl acrylate reagents without pre-functionalization; iron is used as the catalyst, eliminating the need for precious metals, and the effect is significant. The method of this invention has the advantages of widely available, inexpensive, and environmentally friendly catalysts; widely available and inexpensive oxidants; mild reaction conditions and high selectivity; good reaction of unstrained cyclic tertiary alcohols; good substrate functional group compatibility and a wide range of substrate applications; and it achieves an efficient distal functionalization strategy for the synthesis of acrylate compounds. Under optimized reaction conditions, the yield of the target product after separation can reach 82%.
[0020] This invention first oxidizes low-valent iron to high-valent iron using an oxidant, generating a corresponding anionic radical. This anionic radical then abstracts a hydrogen ion from a 1-arylcyclotertiary alcohol, providing an alkoxy radical. This alkoxy radical is generated through C / C bond cleavage. The alkyl radical interacts with (E)-3-benzenesulfonyl methyl acrylate to form a distally functionalized acrylate compound. Finally, the benzenesulfonyl radical loses electrons to gain a benzenesulfonyl cation, while the high-valent iron gains electrons and reverts to low-valent iron, thus completing the catalytic cycle. This invention introduces amino acids or their derivatives to coordinate with the iron catalyst. Practical application has demonstrated excellent results. By introducing amino acids or their derivatives to coordinate with the iron catalyst, a highly active catalytic species is formed, thus overcoming the limitations of existing methods that are only applicable to the oxidative ring-opening of strained cyclotertiary alcohols and suffer from poor functional group tolerance leading to substrate limitations.
[0021] Beneficial effects: Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

This method requires only one step, does not require the participation of acid or base, and has the unique advantages of inexpensive, widely available and environmentally friendly catalysts, ligands and oxidants. The reaction conditions are mild and highly selective. The substrates are widely available, stable and easy to handle. The substrate functional groups are compatible and the substrates have a wide range of applications. Experimental results show that the reaction is applicable to non-strained cyclic tertiary alcohols, while there is no good method in the prior art to form highly active catalyst species.
[0023] (2) The method for ring-opening acrylate of cyclotertiary alcohols provided by the present invention is simple, easy and safe. It can directly obtain acrylate compounds with distal functional groups in one step. Under optimized reaction conditions, the yield of the target product after separation can reach 82%. It is a general, efficient, economical and environmentally friendly method for ring-opening acrylate of cyclotertiary alcohols.
[0024] (3) The reason why the method of the present invention can use ideal iron as a catalyst is that it uses amino acid ligands to coordinate with iron catalysts to form highly active catalytic species, so that the reaction can carry out the ring-opening esterification reaction of cyclic tertiary alcohols under very mild conditions, and can achieve ideal catalytic effect, especially for substrates with non-strained rings (especially 5-7 membered rings).

[0138] In a 25 mL reaction flask, 1,1'-bis(diphenylphosphine)ferrocene (0.02 mmol), L-cysteine (0.1 mmol), substrate 1a (0.5 mmol), N,N-dicarboxamide (1.5 mL), and water (0.5 mL), substrate 2bd (1 mmol), and sodium persulfate (1.5 mmol) were added sequentially. After thorough mixing at room temperature, the reaction mixture was reacted at 25 °C for 48 h. At the end of the reaction, ammonia (0.5 mL, 25%) was added, and the mixture was stirred for 1 h. Immediately afterwards, 5 mL of water was added, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (5 mL × 3). The organic phases were combined, and after solvent removal under reduced pressure, column chromatography (petroleum ether:ethyl acetate V / V = 20:3) was performed to obtain product 29, with a yield of 46%. The low yield in this example may be due to the presence of an additional benzylic site, indicating competition between benzylic oxidation and ring-opening processes.

[0164] Comparative Example 4
[0165] Comparative Example 4 followed the same method as Example 12, except that it used a non-amino acid ligand, 1,10-phenanthroline, resulting in a yield of only 6%. Furthermore, other phosphorus-containing ligands, such as ethyldiphenylphosphine or diethylphenylphosphine, or nitrogen-containing ligands, such as neocopper reagent, also yielded poor results and very low yields.
[0166] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the invention in any way. Although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the invention. Theoretically, various iron catalysts in this invention can coordinate with amino acid ligands to form highly active iron catalyst species, thereby facilitating the smooth progress of the reaction. Amino acid ligands are promoters for the ring-opening acrylate reaction of cyclic tertiary alcohols, utilizing their ability to coordinate with iron. Theoretically, various amino acids and their derivatives all possess coordination functions and should achieve similar effects. Various peroxides are oxidizing agents. The reaction on cyclic tertiary alcohols involves the activation of carbon-carbon bonds, while the various substituents on the aromatic ring affect the electron cloud density within the ring and the steric hindrance during the reaction. That is, the modification of substituents only affects the reaction to a certain extent and does not play a decisive role in the occurrence of the reaction. Anyone skilled in the art will readily understand that, without departing from the scope of the technical solution of this invention, variations or modifications can be made to obtain corresponding embodiments. For example, the substituents can be replaced, changed, or modified within the scope of this invention to achieve the method of this invention. Any modifications, alterations, or equivalent changes made to the above embodiments based on the present invention without departing from the spirit of the present invention shall still fall within the scope of the present invention.
