Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis, and particularly relates to a method for preparing α-hydroxy-β-dicarbonyl derivatives. Background Art

[0002] α-Hydroxy-β-dicarbonyl building blocks are the core structures of many natural drugs. For example, they can be used to synthesize biologically important compounds such as cyclopentenone jellyfishin-like (1), biosynthetic precursors of valine and isoleucine (2) [α-acetolactate (2a) and α-acetylhydroxybutyrate (2b)], and tetracycline antibiotics such as doxycycline (3).

[0003]

[0004] Currently reported synthetic methods for quinazolinone compounds mainly include the following several:

[0005] In 2003, the Jens research group reported the metal-catalyzed α-hydroxylation of various cyclic and acyclic β-dicarbonyl compounds by molecular oxygen. In the reaction, cerium metal salt CeCl3·7H2O was used as the catalyst, which was not green enough. Moreover, the oxidation of acyclic dicarbonyl compounds was accompanied by side reactions and decomposition, and the substrate scope was relatively small.

[0006]

[0007] In 2004, the Togni research group reported the direct hydroxylation catalyzed by asymmetric transition metals titanium and ruthenium. This reaction used relatively expensive chiral transition metal catalysts to directly hydroxylate α-Hydroxy-β-oxoesters, but it had no reaction with weakly enolizable β-ketoesters.

[0008]

[0009] In 2010, the Hii research group reported the use of dimethyldioxirane (DMD) as an effective oxidant for the hydroxylation of 1,3-ketoesters. Under the conditions of chiral phosphine ligands and palladium catalysts, a series of chiral α-Hydroxy-β-oxoesters compounds were synthesized.

[0010]

[0011] In 2016, the Mario research group reported the asymmetric hydroxylation reaction of β-ketoesters with aziridine using chiral bifunctional urea ammonium salts as catalysts.

[0012]

[0013] Although the research on the metal-catalyzed reaction of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds has gradually shifted to metal-free catalysis, the oxidant remains a major obstacle to making this reaction more environmentally friendly. Summary of the Invention
