Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis, and particularly relates to a method for synthesizing 2-(benzenesulfonamide)-3-oxo-3-phenylpropionate ester compounds. Background Technology

[0002] Nitrogen-containing compounds are of paramount importance due to their application in functionalizing various heteroaromatic rings, serving as the main structures for a wide range of biologically and pharmacologically active ingredients. Correspondingly, nitrogen-containing structures are a special type of subunit, widely used in natural products, agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, and functional materials due to their fascinating physicochemical properties and bioactivity. Against this research background, the synthetic strategies for CN-C bonds have been a hot topic for chemists worldwide. With the continuous development of new reagents and methods, as well as new synthetic strategies and instrumental analysis, our understanding of these structures has deepened. Therefore, various strategies have been developed to obtain different nitrogen-containing scaffolds for practically efficient CN-C formation. Traditionally, CN-C bond formation reactions are established using common nitrogen-containing nucleophiles and electrophiles, such as amines, amides, and imines. However, sometimes the functional group compatibility of these related platforms is poor, requiring harsh reaction conditions. Given the importance of these compounds in scientific research, significant efforts have been made to develop alternative synthetic strategies for efficiently constructing CN-C bonds. Indeed, in accordance with the principles of sustainable and green chemistry, developing methods that can introduce nitrogen sources under mild and green conditions remains highly desirable.

[0003] Traditional carbon-nitrogen bond construction often requires transition metal catalysis or prefunctionalization of reactants. This not only leads to heavy metal contamination of the product but also generates a series of acidic byproducts, which is detrimental to environmental friendliness. For example, Barluenga et al. (J. Barluenga, MA. Fernandez, F. Aznar, C. Valdes, Chem. Commun. 2004, 1400.) used binap with prefunctionalized ethylene bromide to generate an amination product, producing byproducts such as hydrogen bromide. In alternative routes to the indole core, Willis et al. (MC. Willis, G. G. Brace, T. J. K. Findlay, I. P. Holmes, Adv. Synth. Catal. 2006, 348, 851.) used 2-(2-haloalkenyl)aryl halides as coupling moieties to primary amines to synthesize a series of indole derivatives, quantitatively generating two molecules of hydrogen chloride as a byproduct.
