Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of catalytic synthesis, and in particular relates to a method for synthesizing a spiro compound by utilizing oxidative dearomatization. Background Art

[0002] Natural products have novel structures and important physiological functions. How to efficiently complete the total synthesis of complex natural products is a problem that needs to be solved. Natural products come from nature, where they can be efficiently and mildly synthesized. Therefore, this study can draw on and simulate the pathways of biogenic synthesis of natural products in nature, such as enzyme catalysis, substrate structure, and bonding mode, to perform biomimetic synthesis and improve the synthesis efficiency of natural products. The existing biomimetic synthesis route of Cephalotaxine is to construct a ten-membered macrocyclic compound and perform an intramolecular cyclization reaction to obtain the Cephalotaxine skeleton structure or to construct a nitrogen-containing six-membered ring and obtain the Cephalotaxine skeleton structure through a trans-ring rearrangement reaction.

[0003] In 1980, Parry used 14 Phenylalanine and tyrosine were labeled with C isotopes, radioactive cephalosporin was collected, and it was chemically degraded to verify the hypothesis of the biogenic synthesis pathway of cephalosporin and propose a possible biogenic synthesis pathway. Starting from phenylalanine and tyrosine, a dibenzazepine ten-membered macrocyclic compound was synthesized through an intermediate: 1-phenethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline derivative, and the compound was obtained through pathway a or pathway b to obtain a diketone compound. Pathway a: a nitrogen-containing five-membered heterocyclic ring is formed in the compound molecule, and pathway b: after a nitrogen-containing six-membered heterocyclic ring is formed in the molecule, electron transfer occurs to form a compound. The compound is then decarboxylated to obtain cephalosporin through an azacyclopentane rearrangement reaction. The strategy for designing a reverse synthetic route for the compound obtained by pathway b and synthesizing cephalosporin is as follows:

[0084] VII. Compound 6 (0.60 g, 1.2 mmol) was added to a 25 mL Schlenk reaction tube with a piston. After the anhydrous and oxygen-free treatment was completed, nitrogen was filled into the system. Dry CH2Cl2 (7.0 mL) was added thereto. The compound was stirred and dissolved at room temperature, and then placed in an ethanol solution at -78°C and stirred for five minutes. After the temperature stabilized, DIBAL (1.24 mL, 1.86 mmol) was drawn with a syringe and slowly dripped into the reaction tube using a syringe pump. The time for dripping DIBAL was about 30 min. After the addition of DIBAL, the reaction progress was monitored by TLC. After about 2 h, the reaction was treated. Add excess sodium potassium tartrate aqueous solution and a small amount of ethyl acetate to the reaction tube to neutralize excess DIBAL reagent. Stir for about 3 hours until the solution becomes clear. Add CH2Cl2 and extract three times. The organic phase is rotary evaporated to remove the organic solvent to obtain a crude product. Since the reaction raw materials cannot react completely, only the crude product is filtered. Silica gel is added to a suction funnel and filtered using a solvent with a polarity of PE / EtOAc = 4:1 to obtain a mixture of compound 6 and compound 7.

TLC was used to monitor the reaction process. After about 5 hours, the solution became turbid, and the raw material 7 had reacted completely. Then, sodium borohydride (55 mg, 1.4 mmol) was added. The reaction process was continued to be monitored by TLC. After about 2 hours, all the generated imine compounds were reacted. H2O was added to the reaction tube, and the mixture was stirred for about 2 hours. The reaction tube turned white. Ethyl acetate was added for extraction three times, and the organic solvent was removed by rotary evaporation to obtain a crude product. The crude product was then purified and separated by column chromatography using a silica gel column to obtain compound 8 (0.4 g, 0.7 mmol) and compound 6 (0.16 g, 0.3 mmol).
