Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis, and particularly relates to a synthesis method of 2-aryl-5-alkyl-3-pyridyl thiophene. BACKGROUND

[0002] Thiophene compounds are widely used in the fields of drug chemistry, pesticide chemistry, material chemistry and functional molecule development due to their unique heterocyclic structure and excellent electronic properties. In particular, thiophene skeletons containing various functional groups are embodied in a plurality of marketed drug molecules, and have a key influence on pharmacodynamic regulation, target selectivity and metabolic stability. Therefore, constructing thiophene derivatives with diverse structures, high functional group density and controllable positions is an important research direction in current organic synthesis and drug molecule design.

[0003] In the prior art, functionalization methods for aromatic heterocyclic structures have been widely studied and reported, including transition metal-catalyzed C-H bond activation / functionalization reactions, cross-coupling reactions and nucleophilic aromatic substitution reactions (S N Ar) and the like. These methods have important advantages in constructing single-substituted heterocyclic compounds, and can efficiently obtain a series of single-functionalized products from readily available halogenated aromatic hydrocarbons or heteroaromatic rings. However, the above strategies are mostly dependent on pre-introduced halogen or directing groups, and their controllability is limited, and usually only one substituent can be introduced at a single position of the aromatic ring or heterocycle. For the construction of complex molecular structures, the continuous installation of multi-site and multi-functional groups still faces great challenges.

[0004] In particular, for thiophene skeletons, due to the different electronic density distribution at multiple sites, how to realize the continuous functionalization with regioselectivity without pre-installing a directing group and without relying on multi-step protection-deprotection operations is one of the key problems currently concerned by synthetic chemists. Although traditional cross-coupling and S N Ar reactions are reliable, they rely on the limited site of the substrate structure itself, making it more difficult to realize multi-site regulation in thiophene and other heterocycle fusion systems.

[0005] In recent years, transition-metal-catalyzed remote C-H activation technology has provided new tools. For example, in 2015, the Ackermann group developed a ruthenium-catalyzed system assisted by an amino acid ligand, which realized the 2-phenylpyridine meta C-H alkylation reaction; subsequently, the system was also expanded under photocatalytic conditions. This method shows the possibility of realizing the selective transformation of non-ortho C-H bonds in heterocyclic systems. However, for more complex 3-pyridyl thiophene, the site electronic effect is more diverse, and how to realize the alkylation of its meta position (i.e. the thiophene C-H site connected to the pyridine ring) is still rarely reported in the existing literature. In addition, the research on the one-pot strategy for introducing two different types of functional groups (such as alkyl and aryl) to construct a multi-heterocyclic fused system is still relatively limited. The one-pot method has the advantages of simple operation, reduced steps, resource saving, and improved atom economy. However, due to the large difference in the reactivity and site selectivity of the reactants in the system, it is difficult to achieve high regioselectivity and high compatibility.

[0006] In view of the limited progress in the current technology in the dual functionalization of thiophene systems, especially the 3-pyridyl thiophene framework, especially the lack of a one-pot method for using bromoalkane and chloroarene and other common functionalization reagents to realize regioselective C-H alkylation and arylation, therefore, developing an efficient, simple and substrate-adaptable 3-pyridyl thiophene dual functionalization strategy is of great significance for the construction of 2-aryl-5-alkyl-3-pyridyl thiophene and other multi-heterocyclic structures. SUMMARY

[0007] The technical problem to be solved by the present application is to provide a simple and easy-to-operate synthesis method of 2-aryl-5-alkyl-3-pyridyl thiophene, which has good compatibility with various functional groups and excellent chemical selectivity, regioselectivity and high atom economy.

[0008] To solve the above technical problems, the following technical solutions are adopted in the present application:

[0009] The synthesis method of 2-aryl-5-alkyl-3-pyridyl thiophene uses 3-pyridyl thiophene, bromoalkane and chlorobenzene as raw materials, uses a ruthenium catalyst for catalysis, and prepares 2-aryl-5-alkyl-3-pyridyl thiophene through a one-pot three-component reaction.

[0010] The above synthesis method adds compound 1, compound 2, compound 3, a ruthenium catalyst, a base and a solvent in a reactor, stirs under argon atmosphere at a certain temperature for a certain time, cools to room temperature after the reaction is completed, concentrates, and then purifies the crude mixture through silica gel column chromatography to obtain 2-aryl-5-alkyl-3-pyridyl thiophene; wherein compound 1 is a 3-pyridyl thiophene compound, compound 2 is a bromoalkane, and compound 3 is chlorobenzene.

[0011] The reaction conforms to the following reaction formula:

[0012] .

[0013] The ruthenium catalyst is one or more of a combination of dichloro (pentamethylcyclopentadienyl) ruthenium polymer, triphenylphosphine chloro ruthenium, tris (acetylacetate) ruthenium, dichloro dicarbonyl bis (triphenylphosphine) ruthenium, ruthenium trichloride hydrate, dichloro bis (4-methyl isopropyl phenyl) ruthenium; the base is one or more of a combination of sodium carbonate, potassium dihydrogen phosphate, potassium benzoate, lithium acetate, potassium tert-pentanoate, potassium phosphate, sodium bicarbonate, sodium trifluoroacetate, potassium acetate, disodium hydrogen phosphate, lithium carbonate, sodium p-toluenesulfonate, cesium carbonate, cesium acetate, potassium trifluoroacetate, sodium phosphate, sodium benzenesulfonate, sodium dihydrogen phosphate, sodium acetate, lithium trifluoroacetate; the solvent is one or more of a combination of hexafluoroisopropyl alcohol, tetrahydrofuran, toluene, ethanol, dimethyl sulfoxide, 1, 2-dichloroethane, trifluorotoluene, tert-butyl alcohol, chlorobenzene, 1, 4-dioxane, acetonitrile, isopropanol, methanol, dichloromethane.

[0014] The ruthenium catalyst is dichloro bis (4-methyl isopropyl phenyl) ruthenium, the base is sodium acetate, and the solvent is chlorobenzene.

[0015] The molar ratio of compound 1 to compound 2 is 1:1-6.

[0016] The reaction temperature is 0-150 °C, and the reaction time is 0-48 h.

[0017] The molar ratio of compound 1 to compound 2 is 1:1.2, the reaction temperature is 130 °C, and the reaction time is 16 h.

[0018] The reactor is a Schlenk tube.

[0019] In view of the technical bottleneck that the regioselectivity is difficult to control in the multi-site functionalization of 3-pyridyl thiophene, the inventors establish a synthesis method of 2-aryl-5-alkyl-3-pyridyl thiophene. The 2-aryl-5-alkyl-3-pyridyl thiophene is prepared by a one-pot three-component reaction using 3-pyridyl thiophene, bromoalkane and chlorobenzene as raw materials and using a ruthenium catalyst for catalysis. The method realizes selective carbon-hydrogen bond activation at the C2 and C5 sites of 3-pyridyl thiophene by using a ruthenium catalyst, so as to complete precise double functionalization modification in a single reaction system. The 2-aryl-5-alkyl-3-pyridyl thiophene with a clear structure is successfully constructed, which fills the technical gap in the one-pot double functionalization in terms of regioselectivity in the related field. Compared with the traditional step-by-step method, the method has the advantages of simplified reaction steps, convenient operation, good functional group compatibility, high chemical selectivity, regioselectivity and atomic economy, and is suitable for efficient construction of various heterocyclic compounds, and has good application prospect.
