Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of organic synthesis technology, specifically relating to a selective synthesis method for N-alkylation products. Background Technology

[0002] Nitrogen-containing organic compounds are a class of crucial monomers in pharmaceuticals and natural products, widely distributed in nature and widely used in medicine, pesticides, dyes, and polymer synthesis. N-alkylation is an important method for synthesizing nitrogen-containing organic compounds. Traditional N-alkylation reactions use amines as the nitrogen source and haloalkanes or dimethyl sulfate as coupling agents. However, haloalkanes are relatively expensive and toxic, and their byproducts cause environmental pollution, limiting the application of amines as the nitrogen source in N-alkylation reactions. The transition metal-catalyzed hydrogen transfer strategy between alcohols and amines is a novel approach to N-alkylation reactions; however, no literature has yet disclosed how to selectively synthesize secondary and tertiary amines using amines and alcohols as starting materials by controlling reaction conditions. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a selective synthesis method for N-alkylation products. In this invention, a transition metal catalysis strategy is employed, using alcohols and aromatic amines as raw materials, and secondary and tertiary amines are synthesized by controlling the reaction conditions. This selective synthesis method for N-alkylation products provides a novel approach for the synthesis of secondary and tertiary amines. The selective synthesis is simple, efficient, non-toxic, pollution-free, and economical, possessing significant practical value.

[0004] The present invention achieves the above-mentioned technical objectives through the following technical means.

[0006] A reaction solution was prepared by dissolving a transition metal catalyst, a phosphine ligand, potassium tert-butoxide, an aromatic amine, and an alcohol in toluene. The reaction solution was heated in an oil bath under stirring. After the reaction was completed, the solution was cooled to room temperature and then diluted with ethyl acetate. After dilution, the organic phase was extracted with a mixture of ethyl acetate and water. The organic phase was washed, dried, allowed to stand, and concentrated to obtain the N-alkylated product.

[0007] Preferably, the transition metal catalyst includes Cu(BTC)-MOF, Cu(BDC)-MOF, Ni(BTC)-MOF, and Fe(BTC)-MOF, with Cu(BTC)-MOF being the preferred catalyst.

[0010] Preferably, the oil bath heating reaction is carried out at 110°C for 8–24 hours.

[0011] Preferably, during the dilution, the ratio of ethyl acetate to alcohol is 5 mL: 0.5 mmol.

[0012] Preferably, in the mixed solution of ethyl acetate and water, the volume ratio of ethyl acetate to water is 1:2.

[0013] Preferably, the aromatic amine comprises:

[0014]

[0015] Preferably, the alcohol comprises:

[0016]

[0017] Preferably, the N-alkylation product includes secondary amines and tertiary amines.

Selective synthesis is achieved by controlling the reaction time and the ratio of the reactant amine to the alcohol. Compared with previously reported methods, this invention allows for the selective synthesis of secondary or tertiary amine compounds by controlling the reaction time and reactant ratio, offering significant advantages over traditional methods. The selective synthesis method for N-alkylation products described in this invention provides a novel approach for the synthesis of secondary and tertiary amines; furthermore, the alkylating agent used is an inexpensive and readily available alcohol, and the byproduct is water, offering advantages such as being environmentally friendly, having low toxicity, and causing minimal pollution.
