Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of chiral resolution technology of organic compounds, and relates to the chiral resolution of trans-hydrated pinol, specifically to a method for obtaining 1S,5R-hydrated pinol by chiral carboxylic acid-mediated dynamic kinetic resolution of trans-hydrated pinol. Background Technology
[0002] 1S,5R-hydrated pinol (English name: trans-Sobrerol, chemical name: trans-p-menthol-6-ene-2,8-diol), molecular formula is C 10 H 18 O2 is a bichiral diol compound with two chiral centers and two hydroxyl groups, belonging to the p-menthene class of terpene derivatives. Its unique molecular configuration endows it with good pharmacological activity and broad industrial application value.
[0003] In the pharmaceutical field, studies have shown that 1S,5R-hydrated pinol exhibits good expectorant and anti-inflammatory activities in the treatment of respiratory diseases and has been used as an intermediate or active ingredient in antitussive and expectorant drugs [Children 2023,10, 1210]. Furthermore, this compound can enhance hippocampal cholinergic signaling function and possesses anti-tau protein and Aβ synthesis activity, and is considered promising for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease [Int. J. Mol. Sci.2025, 26, 4613]. Simultaneously, related studies have also found that its binding with pharmaceutically acceptable salts can promote myoblast differentiation, potentially for the treatment of muscle degeneration diseases related to myasthenia gravis [CN108601755A]. In the fine chemical industry, 1S,5R-hydrated pinol is widely used in the synthesis of natural products, chiral drugs, and high-value-added fragrances (such as L-carvone and chiral terpenoids). With the increasing demand for its applications, developing efficient, green, and industrially scalable synthesis methods has become a research hotspot.
[0004] Currently, methods for preparing optically pure 1S,5R-hydrated pinol mainly fall into the following categories: First, enzyme-catalyzed kinetic resolution, such as the selective esterification of racemic trans-hydrated pinol catalyzed by lipase PS. However, this method requires a large amount of catalyst and the yield is limited to the theoretical upper limit of 50%, making it unsuitable for industrial scale-up [Tetrahedron: Asymmetry 1991, 2, 931]; Second, asymmetric synthesis strategies, such as using methyl 3,5-dihydroxy-4-methylbenzoate as a starting material to synthesize the enantiomer of the target chiral product through 8 steps [Synth. Commun. 2003, 33, 2125]. However, this method is cumbersome, uses precious metal catalysts, and produces complex byproducts, resulting in high overall process costs and a heavy environmental burden, limiting its practical application; Third, metal-catalyzed kinetic resolution, such as palladium-catalyzed selective oxidation of racemic trans-hydrated pinol to achieve resolution [J. Org. Chem. 2003, [68,7535] Although these methods exhibit good enantioselectivity, the raw material utilization rate is still limited to 50%, leading to resource waste. In summary, these methods suffer from problems such as complex steps, harsh reaction conditions, and limited yield and purity. In particular, obtaining high optical purity 1S,5R-hydrated pinol under industrial scale-up conditions still faces significant challenges.
[0005] Dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) is a strategy that combines in-situ dynamic racemization of racemic substrates with selective conversion by chiral catalysts, selectively converting two enantiomers into a single configuration product. Theoretically, it can achieve 100% yield and 100% ee, demonstrating significant advantages in chiral synthesis. However, for diol substrates with bichiral centers and complex spatial configurations (such as trans-hydrated pinol), there is still a lack of efficient and universal resolution systems, necessitating the development of novel, green, and efficient dynamic kinetic resolution methods. Summary of the Invention
[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the present invention aims to provide a method for the dynamic kinetic resolution of trans-hydrated pinol mediated by chiral carboxylic acids to obtain 1S,5R-hydrated pinol. This invention utilizes the synergistic effect of chiral carboxylic acids and solid acid catalysis to efficiently prepare optically pure 1S,5R-hydrated pinol from racemic or low enantioselective trans-hydrated pinol. The method of this invention exhibits high enantioselectivity, high feed utilization, and good process adaptability, making it suitable for the green and efficient preparation of 1S,5R-hydrated pinol, and possessing promising prospects for industrial application.
[0007] This invention is achieved through the following technical solution: A method for the dynamic kinetic resolution of trans-hydrated pinol mediated by chiral carboxylic acid to obtain 1S,5R-hydrated pinol includes the following steps: dissolving trans-hydrated pinol, chiral carboxylic acid, and a solid acid catalyst in a solvent, and stirring at a suitable temperature to allow trans-hydrated pinol to undergo selective esterification to generate a chiral ester intermediate; unreacted trans-hydrated pinol undergoes rapid racemization; the reaction process is monitored by chiral gas chromatography; after the reaction is completed, the solid acid catalyst is recovered by filtration; the filtrate is subjected to vacuum distillation to separate the product chiral ester and recover the solvent; the chiral ester is further hydrolyzed in an alkaline system to obtain optically pure 1S,5R-hydrated pinol, and the chiral carboxylic acid is recovered.
[0008] The reaction equation is as follows:
[0009] In this invention, chiral carboxylic acids serve simultaneously as enantiomeric resolving agents and esterification substrates, achieving the enrichment of target enantiomeric compounds by constructing chiral esters. Simultaneously, under acidic conditions, the racemization of unreacted 1R,5S-hydrated pinol is promoted to generate 1S,5R-hydrated pinol, which then participates in the selective esterification reaction, thereby achieving highly efficient dynamic kinetic resolving.
[0010] A further improvement to the present invention is as follows: The trans-hydrated pinol is a racemic or low-enantioselective trans-hydrated pinol with an ee value of 0-60%.
[0011] Furthermore, the chiral carboxylic acid is an organic carboxylic acid with central chirality, including (S)-2-phenylpropionic acid, (S)-2-phenylbutyric acid, (S)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-naphthoic acid, (S)-ibuprofen, (S)-naproxen, (S)-ketoprofen, (S)-2-methylbutyric acid, (S)-3-cyclohexene-1-carboxylic acid, (1R,2S,5R)-2-isopropyl-5-methylcyclohexanecarboxylic acid, pinone acid, etc.
[0012] Furthermore, the solid acid catalyst is used to activate carboxylic acids to promote esterification, including Amberlyst-15 (sulfonated resin) and H3PW. 12 O 40 / SiO2 (phosphotungstic acid-supported), sulfonated graphene, H-ZSM-5 (proton zeolite), ZrO2-SO4 2- Zirconium oxide sulfate, WO3 / ZrO2 solid acid, Fe3O4@SiO2-SO3H (magnetic solid acid), sulfonated biochar, etc.
[0013] Furthermore, the solvent is an organic solvent that can form an azeotropic reaction with water, which facilitates the removal of the generated water through a water separator during the reaction process. Examples include cyclopentyl methyl ether, isopropyl ether, methyl tert-butyl ether, benzene, toluene, xylene, cyclohexane, n-hexane, ethyl acetate, etc.
[0014] Furthermore, the mass ratio of the solid acid catalyst to trans-hydrated pinol is 1:50-100; the molar ratio of the chiral carboxylic acid to trans-hydrated pinol is 1-2:1.
[0015] Furthermore, the reaction temperature is 40-120 °C.
[0016] Furthermore, the alkaline system is an aqueous solution of potassium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, or lithium hydroxide.
[0017] Furthermore, the recovered solid acid catalyst and chiral carboxylic acid can be reused. The solid acid catalyst can be recycled at least ten times after filtration and the chiral carboxylic acid can be recycled an unlimited number of times after hydrolysis.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: This invention utilizes the synergistic effect of chiral carboxylic acids and solid acid catalysis to efficiently prepare 1S,5R-hydrated pinol with an optical purity greater than 99% from racemic or low enantioselective trans-hydrated pinol. The chiral carboxylic acid also serves as an enantiomeric resolving agent and an esterification substrate to form chiral esters and enrich the target enantiomeric compounds.
[0019] This invention features a mild reaction, simple operation, and excellent enantioselectivity. The chiral carboxylic acid and solid acid catalytic system can be reused, making it suitable for the green and efficient synthesis of chiral flavor intermediates such as L-carvone, and it has good prospects for industrial application.
[0020] This invention not only provides a novel dynamic kinetic separation strategy for the efficient preparation of optically pure 1S,5R-hydrated pinol, but also allows for the recycling of both the solid acid catalyst and the chiral carboxylic acid used, aligning with green chemistry principles and significantly reducing the production cost of trans-hydrated pinol, thus laying a solid foundation for its industrial application.
