Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of chiral chemical synthesis, and particularly relates to an asymmetric preparation process of (S) or (R)-Ugi amine and a tartrate thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Optically active Ugi amine is a key intermediate for preparing chiral organocatalysts with ferrocene skeleton and chiral bidentate or tridentate ligands. For example, chiral phosphine organocatalysts derived from (S)-Ugi amine exhibit excellent catalytic activity and enantioselectivity in promoting asymmetric Morita-Baylis-Hillman reaction, stereoselective S N 2 substitution reaction and [3+2] cycloaddition reaction involving Morita-Baylis-Hillman adduct. Meanwhile, chiral bidentate or tridentate ligands with ferrocene skeleton derived from optically active Ugi amine can efficiently catalyze asymmetric hydrogenation reduction of unsaturated bonds (C=O, C=C and C=N) after being coordinated with noble metals. The bidentate (Wudaphos) and tridentate ligands (f-amphol, f-ampha and f-amphox-t-Bu) with ferrocene skeleton invented by Zhang Xumu group have extremely important applications in asymmetric catalytic hydrogenation, such as preparation of sitagliptin and (S)-naproxen. In addition, Josiphos is one of the representative ligands, which has excellent catalytic performance and is suitable for various reactions. Syngenta successfully realized the asymmetric industrial production of herbicide metolachlor by using Ir-Josiphos complex to perform asymmetric hydrogenation on imine. Therefore, the preparation of optically active Ugi amine has attracted much attention.

[0003] The preparation methods reported in the literature mainly include three types:

[0004] I. Chiral resolution method: racemic Ugi amine is resolved by using chiral tartaric acid, as described in the literature Catal Sci Technol, 2016, 6(1): 118-124. and Fine Chemical Intermediates, 2015, 45(6): 48-51. However, this method usually needs multiple resolutions, has low efficiency and does not meet the requirements of green chemistry.

[0005] II. Chiral substrate induction method: in the patent CN107286202A, acetylferrocene is used as raw material, and in the presence of titanium tetraisopropylate [Ti(O- i Pri)4] and NaBH4, it is condensed and reduced with optically active α-phenethylamine, and then subjected to aminomethylation, esterification and diethylamine substitution to obtain the target compound. The operation is complicated, and the overall yield is not high.

[0006] III. Asymmetric carbonyl reduction method: In recent years, many methods for asymmetric synthesis of chiral Ugi amine have been developed, that is, chiral ferrocenyl ethanol is obtained by asymmetric hydrogenation of acetylated ferrocene, and then the target compound can be obtained by simple esterification and dimethylamine substitution. The CBS reduction method in the literature Tetrahedron Lett, 2003, 44(4): 801-804 has the disadvantages of expensive chiral catalyst and low conversion rate in Ru(II)-(R,R)-TsDPEN catalytic asymmetric hydrogen transfer method in the master's thesis (Nie Hufang. Synthesis of chiral ferrocene bisphosphine ligand and its asymmetric hydrogenation reaction research[D]. Xi'an: Fourth Military University Master's Thesis, 2011.). Some methods can only synthesize one type of Ugi amine, and can only be prepared on a gram scale, such as Org Lett., 2016, 18, 2938-2941. and Chem Cat Chem, 2017, 9, 1744-1748. In 2018, the group of Zhong Weihui of Zhejiang University of Technology reported a preparation process of (S)-Ugi amine, which achieved good results, and the reaction scale could reach kilogram level (CN 108409802).

[0007] For the industrial scale preparation of (S) or (R)-Ugi amine, the existing catalytic system often has the problems of large amount of catalyst and low enantioselectivity. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop a simple and large-scale method for preparing optically active Ugi amine. SUMMARY
