Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis, and particularly relates to a method for preparing (1-phenylethyl) cyanamide and derivatives thereof N (RSC Adv., 2020, 10, 17288-17292). BACKGROUND

[0002] N- (1-phenylethyl) cyanamide and its derivatives have a variety of applications in industry, mainly including the following aspects: 1. Pesticide raw materials: a variety of pesticides, herbicides and other pesticide raw materials can be derived by chemical synthesis. 2. Pharmaceutical intermediates: can be used as pharmaceutical intermediates for the production of various drugs, such as antibiotics, analgesics, tumor drugs, etc. 3. Important chemical intermediates. Can be used as a multipurpose chemical intermediate to produce important chemical raw materials such as carboxylic acid, amide, etc., and can also be converted to synthesize natural heterocyclic compounds such as pyridine, imidazole, pyridazine, etc. 4. Important metal ligands, which are ligands for some important transition metals, widely used in transition metal catalysts, photochemical catalyst ligands, etc. In summary, N- (1-phenylethyl) cyanamide has wide application value in industry and can meet the different needs of multiple industries.

[0003] Due to the multiple uses of such compounds, the synthesis of N- (1-phenylethyl) cyanamide and its derivatives has become a hot topic, especially the establishment of simple and efficient synthesis of aromatic compounds based on alkyl aromatic hydrocarbons. N- The reported methods for synthesizing aromatic aldehydes or aromatic ketones and their derivatives mainly include the following: Using cyanamide and phenylboronic acid as raw materials, under the catalysis of copper acetate, using bipyridine as ligand and cesium carbonate as base, (1-phenylethyl) cyanamide and its derivatives can be efficiently synthesized in dichloromethane solvent. N- This conversion uses inexpensive copper as a catalyst, has good selectivity and high conversion rate, and has strong applicability. (Org. Lett. 2023, 25, 6446-6451) Using relatively inexpensive benzaldehyde as raw material, hydroxylamine as nitrogen source, sulfonyl fluoride as nucleophile and triethylamine as base, various N- (1-phenylethyl) cyanamide derivatives can be efficiently synthesized under the atmosphere. This method has strong substrate applicability and can react with various substituted aromatic aldehydes. (RSC Adv., 2020, 10, 17288-17292). A variety of (1-phenylethyl) cyanamide derivatives can be synthesized by using cyanobenzene as raw material, dichloromethane as solvent, hydroxylamine as nitrogen source, sulfonyl fluoride as nucleophile and sodium hydroxide as base. N- The method uses strong base, strong nucleophile and toxic gas, which is not conducive to industrial production. (Org. Biomol. Chem., 2019, 17, 7684-7688 A variety of (1-phenylethyl) cyanamide derivatives can be synthesized by using cyanobenzene as raw material, dichloromethane as solvent, hydroxylamine as nitrogen source, sulfonyl fluoride as nucleophile and sodium hydroxide as base. N-(1-phenylethyl) cyanamide The method has the advantages of wide substrate range, good selectivity, good yield, good functional group tolerance and simple operation, thereby providing a simple method for synthesizing (1-phenylethyl) cyanamide and its derivatives. (Synthetic Communications, 48:5, 500-510); N- The reaction of p-tolylmethyl oxime with TsCl under different conditions produces side reactions. 1.05 equivalents of TsCl and 1.05 equivalents of DIPEA are used in dichloromethane from 0°C to room temperature for 3h. (1-phenylethyl) cyanamide is obtained. The reaction conditions are mild and the substrate range is extensive. (Org. Lett. 2014, 16, 3, 892-895) N- In addition, a nucleophilic substitution reaction occurs between bromoacetonitrile and benzylamine to produce (1-phenylethyl) cyanamide. This reaction system is simple, but it requires toxic bromoacetonitrile, which greatly limits the application of the reaction. (Org. Biomol. Chem., 2012, 10, 2528-2533, Journal of the American Chemical Society (1960), 82, 1609-1613) N- This reaction can simply and efficiently synthesize (1-phenylethyl) cyanamide and its derivatives. N-( (1-phenylethyl) cyanamide and its derivatives have a wide range of substrates, but there are still some shortcomings: the use of transition metal or noble metal catalysts to some extent causes the loss of noble metals and environmental pollution; the use of strong oxidizing agents increases the risk of the reaction to some extent; and some use toxic raw materials or catalysts, which limits the application of the reaction.
