[0002] Amidines are an important class of nitrogen-containing compounds with widespread applications in various fields. The methods for synthesizing amidines have been well developed over time, using a wide variety of starting materials and diverse methods. Since 2005, the copper-catalyzed cycloaddition of alkynes and azides has become a key method for preparing amidines, enabling the mild and efficient synthesis of various substituted amidines (I. Bae, H. Han, and S. Chang. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2005, 127 , 2038-2039). Currently, most amidine compounds are racemic (Ref. (a) KD Veeranna, KK Das, and S.Baskaran. (b) HD Xu, ZH Jia, K. Xu, M. Han, SN Jiang, J. Cao, JCWang, and MH Shen. Angew. Chem. Int. Ed.2014, 53, 9284–9288. (c) C.G. Wang, R. Wu, T.P. Li, T. Jia, Y. Li, D.M. Fang, X.Z. Chen, Y.J. Gao, Hai-LiangNi, P. Hu, B.Q.

Although α-chiral amidine compounds can be achieved through asymmetric substitution reactions (T. Kochi and JA Ellman. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2004, 126, 15652-15653), but this requires the step-by-step construction of functional groups and chiral centers, and because an equivalent amount of strong base is used, it is neither environmentally friendly nor efficient. The present invention provides a relatively simple and efficient method for synthesizing α-chiral amidines. By preparing chiral allylamines and alkenyl imines on site, using asymmetric N- One-step construction of heterogeneous Claisen rearrangement method α- The chiral center and amidine functional group have better step economy.
