Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of pesticides, specifically relating to a 5-chloro-5-phenyl-4,5-dihydroisoxazole-3-carboxylic acid compound, its synthesis method, and its application in the synthesis of active compounds. Technical Background
[0002] Dihydroisoxazole compounds are a class of heterocyclic compounds with good biological activity and potential medicinal value. They have long been a focus of research as important intermediates in the pesticide and pharmaceutical fields. Examples include herbicides containing dihydroisoxazole structures such as benzoxazole, sulfopyrazol, insecticides such as flurranazine, and the herbicide safener ethyl bis(oxazolyl)ate.
[0003] Currently, in the synthesis of dihydroisoxazole compounds with disubstituted 5-position, the commonly used method is to use disubstituted ethylene as a raw material. For example, 1,3-dichloro-5-(1-trifluoromethyl-vinyl)benzene is used to synthesize freranal (CN114394946), and stilbene is used to synthesize ethyl bis(benzazole) acid (CN108440435). The olefins used in these methods are complex in structure and are not inexpensive or readily available chemical raw materials. Furthermore, the synthesis of some complex olefins is quite difficult. For instance, the raw materials for synthesizing 1,3-dichloro-5-(1-trifluoromethyl-vinyl)benzene are (3,5-dichlorophenyl)boric acid and 2-bromo-3,3,3-trifluoro-1-propene, with catalysts such as dichlorobis(triphenylphosphine)palladium, yielding a 64% yield.
[0004] (CN115246825) has high costs and low yields.
[0005]
[0006] This laboratory has designed and developed a novel dihydroisoxazole compound containing a chiral center and an active reaction site. This compound can be used as a precursor to construct potentially active dihydroisoxazole derivatives, especially facilitating the construction of dihydroisoxazole compounds with 5-position disubstituted derivatives. For example, in the construction of bisphenyloxazole acid analogs, this method overcomes the limitation of using stilbene as a starting material in existing technologies. Instead, it uses cheaper and more readily available raw materials to first synthesize the key intermediate 5-chloro-5-phenyl-4,5-dihydroisoxazole-3-carboxylic acid and its derivatives, which can better reduce the difficulty of synthesizing the final product. Summary of the Invention
[0007] This invention addresses the drawback of existing techniques for synthesizing dihydroisoxazole compounds with a 5-position disubstituted structure, which relies on the use of expensive disubstituted ethylene. It provides a novel key intermediate for synthesizing potentially active dihydroisoxazole compounds.
[0008] Specifically, the present invention first provides a 5-chloro-5-phenyl-4,5-dihydroisoxazole-3-carboxylic acid and its derivatives as shown in Formula I:

[0013]
[0014] Beneficial effects of the invention
[0015] The 5-chloro-5-phenyl-4,5-dihydroisoxazole-3-carboxylic acid compounds developed in this laboratory provide a new synthetic approach for constructing potentially active dihydroisoxazole derivatives. They also solve the problem of the difficulty in synthesizing dihydroisoxazole compounds with 5-position disubstituted forms, offering a simpler synthetic route and using cheaper and more readily available raw materials. For the synthesis of existing related active compounds, such as ethyl bis(benzoxazole)ate, this approach can reduce synthesis costs and simplify the process with milder conditions. Furthermore, the intermediates disclosed in this invention can also be used as key intermediates for high-throughput compound synthesis screening. Detailed Implementation
