Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of catalytic chemistry, specifically to a supported manganese catalyst, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Asymmetric epoxidation of olefins is an important class of organic synthesis reactions, and the resulting chiral epoxides are important pharmaceutical intermediates. Therefore, developing highly efficient catalysts for this type of epoxidation reaction is of great significance. Many researchers have developed biomimetic catalysts by mimicking the active sites of metallooxidases P450. Among these catalysts, Salen ligands have attracted considerable attention due to the ease of preparation of their metal-based complexes and their high catalytic activity. Subsequently, scientists discovered that the reaction catalyzed by the manganese complex formed by the non-heme N4 chiral ligand and metallic manganese exhibits higher reaction selectivity and enantioselectivity, proving it to be a highly efficient catalyst for asymmetric epoxidation reactions.
[0003] In 1990, Jacobsen et al. (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1990, 112, 2801-2803.) reported a reaction system using a chiral Schiff base complex as a catalyst, achieving an epoxide yield of up to 93% and an ee value of 93%. This yielded excellent results in the asymmetric epoxidation of nonfunctionalized olefins. However, this homogeneous catalyst suffered from drawbacks such as difficulty in separation, recovery, and reuse, and a tendency for dimerization and deactivation within the reaction system. To address these issues, in 2000, Kim's research group developed a heterogeneous JandaJel catalyst that could adhere to resins, yielding epoxides with an ee value of up to 97%. However, this complex could only be recycled three times (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2000, 122, 6929-6934.). In 2008, Bao Hebin's research group achieved the best catalytic effect using the asymmetric epoxidation of styrene as a probe reaction, with Salen-Mn(III) complex as a catalyst, m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid as an oxygen source, and NMO as an axial ligand. The product conversion rate was 85%, the selectivity was 90%, and the ee value reached 60%. They also found that the supported chiral Salen-Mn(III) catalyst was stable and could be recycled up to 6 times (Journal of Chemical Research in Chinese Universities, 2008, 29, 927-931). In 2021, Sun's research group reported the design and synthesis of a non-heme manganese N4 catalyst supported on an organic porous framework. This POP-based manganese catalyst exhibited high reactivity for the asymmetric epoxidation of olefins, with a product ee value as high as 96% and easy recycling. However, it had limited substrate versatility, could only be recycled up to 5 times, and showed a certain scale-up effect in gram-scale reactions (ACS Catal. 2021, 11, 10964-10973). Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the aforementioned problems in existing technologies, this invention provides a method for preparing a supported manganese catalyst, solving the problem of the inability to recycle and reuse homogeneous catalysts. Furthermore, it is applied to continuous flow catalysis, resolving the issue of decreased yield and enantioselectivity during scale-up reactions. This catalyst exhibits high catalytic activity and excellent enantioselectivity, enabling its application in the asymmetric epoxidation of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds.

The supported manganese catalyst is a heterogeneous chiral catalyst with high catalytic activity and excellent enantioselectivity (ee value up to 98.3%). Because it is insoluble in the reaction solvent, it is easily separated from the reaction system and recovered, exhibiting good stability. Furthermore, it can be combined with continuous flow catalysis to maintain high catalytic activity for a longer period, and can be applied to the asymmetric epoxidation reaction of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds.
