Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of organic synthetic chemistry, and in particular to a method for synthesizing a selenoester compound promoted by visible light. Background Art

[0002] Selenium is an essential biological trace element for the human body and is widely found in natural products, amino acids and proteins. Organic selenium compounds have unique biological activities and pharmacological effects, such as anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antihypertensive, antioxidant, antiviral, antiparasitic and anti-radiation properties. Among various selenium-containing compounds, selenium esters are widely used in medicine, pesticides, etc., and their special structure can make some compounds have good physiological and pharmaceutical activities. Therefore, chemists have invested a lot of energy in developing methods for the synthesis of selenium esters (Chem. Eur. J. 2021, 27, 8656–8667). In the reported methods for synthesizing selenium ester compounds, selenium anion compounds are usually used to add acid anhydrides, acyl chlorides, carboxylic acids, aldehydes, etc. These methods reported in the literature have some disadvantages, such as the use of metal reagents to produce selenium nucleophiles, the difficulty of handling the metal reagents used, and the greater pollution to the environment. The reaction conditions are harsh and the substrate compatibility is poor.

[0003] In recent years, visible light-induced chemical reactions have gradually become a powerful synthetic strategy. Such reactions can usually produce active free radical intermediates under mild conditions, and then other chemical bonds are constructed. Aryl keto acids are a class of cheap, readily available and relatively stable compounds, which are usually used as acylating agents in chemical reactions. However, literature research shows that there are few reports on the method of synthesizing selenoester compounds from aryl keto acids and diselenides promoted by visible light. In the study of the mechanism of chromium-catalyzed olefin double acylation reaction under photoredox catalysis, Xiao Wenjing et al. added diphenyl diselenide to the reaction system to obtain a small amount of selenoester (ACS Catal. 2022, 12, 1879-1885). The reaction yield is low, the amount of diselenide is large, and a photocatalyst is required. Therefore, it is still necessary to develop a new reaction system that is simple to operate, has a high yield, is widely applicable, and is relatively green to construct selenoester compounds. Here, the present application utilizes the unique advantages of photochemistry in the field of synthesis to construct a green and efficient photocatalytic reaction to achieve the preparation of selenoester compounds. Summary of the invention
