AI Technical Summary
In the prior art, the development of chiral ferrocene bisphosphine ligands containing thiourea structure is lagging behind. Traditional bisphosphine ligands are insufficient in regulating the differences and electrical properties of phosphine substituents, resulting in poor catalyst recognition ability and reaction activity on substrates, making it difficult to meet the needs of efficient asymmetric catalytic reactions.
Chiral ferrocene bisphosphine ligand with dithiourea structure were developed. By introducing different phosphine substituents on the ring of the cerus and combining specific synthesis steps, ligands of the structure of Formula I or Formula II were prepared and complexed with transition metal salts to form a catalyst, which was applied to asymmetric catalytic reactions.
The activity and enantioselectivity of the catalyst are enhanced, and the efficient asymmetric hydrogenation reaction is achieved, especially the catalytic efficiency in cyclic imine, mesmin and phosphindole oxides are catalyzed, providing a low-cost way to prepare nicotine.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of organic synthesis, and in particular to a chiral ferrocenyldiphosphine ligand containing a thiourea structure, a chiral catalyst, and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Chiral ligands can regulate the reaction activity and stereoselectivity of asymmetric catalytic reactions and play a vital role in asymmetric catalytic reactions. Therefore, the development of chiral ligands with novel structures and excellent performance has always been an important part of asymmetric catalytic reaction research.
[0003] The ferrocene skeleton is a highly effective ligand framework. Chemists have developed a series of high-performance chiral ligands based on it, including the bisphosphine ligands Josiphos, Taniaphos, Walphos, BoPhoz, and Mandyphos. In recent years, the design and synthesis of chiral ferrocenephosphine ligands with secondary interactions has attracted considerable attention and interest. Against this backdrop, Professor Zhang Xumu developed ZhaoPhos, a chiral ferrocenephosphine ligand containing a thiourea structural unit, and successfully applied this ligand to various asymmetric catalytic reactions, achieving excellent results. Although ZhaoPhos has become a leading ligand for asymmetric catalysis, the development of ferrocenephosphine ligands containing thiourea structural units remains significantly underdeveloped. Furthermore, conventional chiral ferrocenephosphine ligands either contain identical phosphine substituents on both ferrocene rings or one phosphine substituent on the ferrocene ring and the other on the ferrocene side chain. Hybrid chiral bisphosphine ligands with different phosphine substituents on the two ferrocene rings are rare. However, the different phosphine substituents in bisphosphine ligands can enhance the difference between the two phosphine substituents through steric hindrance and electronic regulation, improving the catalyst's recognition of the substrate's Re and Si faces, thereby improving the reaction activity and enantioselectivity. Therefore, the development of bisphosphine ligands containing a thiourea structural unit and different phosphine substituents attached to the cyclopentadienyl ring is of great research value. Furthermore, the ZhaoPhos ligand contains only a single thiourea structural unit. Incorporating thiourea structural units into both cyclopentadienyl ring side chains could further enhance the interaction between the catalyst and substrate, thereby improving the catalyst's activity and chiral control capabilities. More importantly, the addition of a thiourea structural unit changes the ligand's skeleton, providing a ligand with a different coordination system.
[0004] Therefore, the development of chiral ferrocenyldiphosphine ligands with dithiourea structure and their catalytic systems has important research value. Summary of the Invention

[0125]
[0126] Under nitrogen atmosphere and room temperature, compound 6 (1.9 g, 5.8 mmol) was dissolved in 20 mL of ether.

[0133] Comparative Example 1 This comparative example provides compound 3a (R 1 =phenyl, R 2 =cyclohexyl) were used as control experiments
[0134] Synthesis Route 1
[0135]
[0136] Under nitrogen atmosphere and room temperature, 9.2 mL of n-BuLi (2.5 mol / L, 23 mmol) in n-hexane was added dropwise to a solution of 5.1 g (R)-Ugi's amine (20 mmol, 1.0 equiv.) in diethyl ether (70 mL). After 1.5 h, 10.0 mL of n-BuLi (2.5 mol / L, 25 mmol) in n-hexane and TMEDA (3.8 mL, 25 mmol) were added dropwise to the reaction solution, and the reaction mixture was stirred overnight. Ph2PCl (3.6 mL, 20 mmol) was slowly added dropwise at -78°C, stirred for 1.0 h, then transferred to room temperature and stirred for 2.0 h. Cy2PCl (5.2 mL, 24 mmol) was slowly added dropwise at -78°C, stirred for 1.0 h, then transferred to room temperature and stirred overnight. After completion of the reaction, ice water was added to quench the reaction, and the mixture was extracted with EA. The combined organic phases were dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered, and spin-dried to obtain a red oily liquid. TLC analysis showed that the reaction system was very complex. Column chromatography was attempted to separate the products. However, due to the large number of product types and the very small polarity differences between different products (some products may have the same Rf value), pure products could not be obtained after multiple separation and purification attempts.
[0137] Synthesis Route 2
[0138]
[0139] Under a nitrogen atmosphere and at room temperature, 4.6 mL of a 2.5 mol / L, 11.5 mmol solution of n-BuLi in n-hexane was added dropwise to a solution of 2.5 g of (R)-Ugi's amine (10 mmol, 1.0 equiv.) in diethyl ether (30 mL). Ph2PCl (2.2 mL, 12 mmol) was slowly added dropwise at -78°C, stirred for 1.0 h, then transferred to room temperature and stirred for 2.0 h. After completion of the reaction, ice water was added to quench the reaction, followed by extraction with EA. The combined organic phases were dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered, and spin-dried to obtain a red oil. This was then purified by column chromatography (n-hexane / ethyl acetate = 4:1) to afford product 1b (3.4 g, 78% yield).
[0140] Under nitrogen atmosphere and room temperature, 4.0 mL of n-BuLi in n-hexane (2.5 mol / L, 10 mmol) was added dropwise to a solution of compound 1b (3.4 g, 7.8 mmol, 1.0 equiv.) in diethyl ether (30 mL). Cy2PCl (2.6 mL, 12 mmol) was slowly added dropwise at -78°C, stirred for 1.0 h, and then transferred to room temperature and stirred for 12 h. TLC monitoring observed only trace conversion. The reaction was quenched by adding ice water and extracted with EA. The combined organic phases were dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered, and spin-dried to obtain a red oil. This was then purified by column chromatography (n-hexane / ethyl acetate = 4:1). Product 3a was not isolated and the starting material was recovered.
[0141] From the above two routes, it can be seen that the traditional double lithiation-substitution route and the step-by-step lithiation-substitution synthesis method are not applicable to the synthesis of hybrid key intermediate 3.
[0142] Example 8 Asymmetric Hydrogenation of Pyridyl Cycloimine to Prepare Nicotine Derivatives
[0143]
[0144] Under argon atmosphere, [Ir(COD)Cl]2 (3.4 mg, 5.0×10 -3 mmol) and ligand L (1.0×10 -2 mmol) and DCE (1 mL) were added to a 2.5 mL reaction bottle and stirred at 25°C for 1 hour to prepare the catalyst in situ. The substrate 2-pyridyl cycloimine (0.1 mmol) was added to a 5.0 mL hydrogenation bottle, followed by 1.0 mL of dry DCE. Then, 100 μL (1×10 -3 mmol) was added dropwise to the reaction system. The hydrogenation reaction flask was placed in an autoclave, and the autoclave was replaced with H2 three times. The autoclave was then filled with 40 bar H2 and allowed to react at room temperature for 24 hours. After the reaction was completed, the hydrogen in the autoclave was slowly vented. The reaction liquid in the hydrogenation flask was directly subjected to rapid silica gel column chromatography using ethyl acetate as the eluent to remove the metal complex and obtain the target product. The ligand results are shown in Table 1.

[0149] As can be seen from the data in Table 1, it is difficult to achieve excellent catalytic performance by regulating the electronic properties and steric hindrance of the phosphine substituents for ZhaoPhos-type ligands containing the same phosphine substituents. The catalytic performance of hybrid bisphosphine ligands is related to the electronic properties of the substituents and their position on the cyclopentadienyl ring. For example, by comparing the results of L5 and L11, it can be seen that the yield and ee value of the target product change significantly when the positions of the phenyl and cyclohexyl groups are swapped. This shows that hybrid bisphosphine ligands can achieve excellent catalytic performance through modification and transformation of the substituents, and are a different type of ligand from ZhaoPhos.

Then, 40 bar H2 was introduced into the autoclave and the reaction was allowed to proceed at room temperature for 24 hours. After the reaction was completed, the hydrogen in the autoclave was slowly discharged. The reaction liquid in the hydrogenation flask was directly subjected to rapid silica gel column chromatography using ethyl acetate as eluent to remove the metal complex, obtaining the product as an oil with a yield of 93%. HPLC analysis of the product revealed an ee value of 88%.

[0158] As can be seen from the data in Table 2, the hybrid bisphosphine ligand L5 containing different phosphine substituents is significantly superior to the ligand ZhaoPhos containing the same phosphine substituent in catalytic activity and enantioselectivity control. It also shows that the hybrid bisphosphine ligand of the present invention is essentially different from the ZhaoPhos type ligand containing the same phosphine substituent in catalytic performance.

The freshly prepared catalyst (1 mL) was then added dropwise to the reaction system. The hydrogenation flask was placed in an autoclave, and the autoclave was flushed with H2 three times. The autoclave was then filled with 80 bar of H2 and allowed to react at room temperature for 24 hours. After the reaction, the hydrogen in the autoclave was slowly vented, and the reaction solution was concentrated and separated by column chromatography (silica gel, eluent: ethyl acetate) to obtain the target products, (1R,2S)-1-(tert-butyl)-2-phenyl-2,3-dihydrophosphanin 1-oxide and (S)-1-(tert-butyl)-2-phenylphosphanin 1-oxide.

[0180] From the data in the table, it can be seen that the catalytic activity of ZhaoPhos decreases significantly with the decrease of catalyst dosage, but L9 can maintain excellent catalytic performance when the catalyst dosage is reduced, which further illustrates that the catalytic performance of the hybrid bisphosphine ligand L9 is significantly different from that of ZhaoPhos, and they are different types of ligands.
