Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of organic synthetic chemistry, specifically relating to a method for catalytic synthesis of secondary amine acetate derivatives using lignite residue. Background Technology
[0002] Lignite residue is the main residual material after lignite refining, rich in various metal ions and present in large quantities. Hydrometallurgy , 2017, 168 : 141; Fuel , 2017, 203 : 214), but its post-treatment has always been a difficult problem for environmental organizations both at home and abroad. J. Anal. Appl. Pyrol ., 2019, 139 : 40; Energy , 2022, 240 : 122796). Currently, the most common treatment method is to use it as fertilizer. Sci. Total Environ ., 2021, 773 :145631; Coke. Chem ., 2021, 64 : 31; J. Air. Waste Manage ., 2021, 71 : 1175), animal bedding ( Waste Manage ., 2021, 136 : 113), Adsorbent (Mine Water Environ., 2019, 38 : 24) or degradation agent ( J. Environ. Chem. Eng ., 2021, 9 : 104784; Chem. Eng. J ., 2025, 521 (e.g., 166275). If it can be used as an organic synthesis catalyst, it can not only alleviate the problem of difficult treatment of lignite residue, but also provide a new idea for the selection of catalysts in organic synthesis reactions, realize the reuse of waste resources, and conform to the tenets of green chemistry and green environmental protection.
[0003] Secondary amine acetate derivatives are a class of widely used organic substances found in various drugs, natural products, or bioactive preparations and their skeletal structures. ACC. Chem. Res ., 2013, 46 : 236; J. Am. Chem. Soc ,2013, 135 : 18798; Ind. Eng. Chem. Res ., 2020, 59 The construction of the CN bond, a key step in its preparation, has always been a research hotspot in the field of organic synthesis both domestically and internationally. Angew. Chem., Int. Ed ., 2017,56 :4156; Adv. Synth. Catal ., 2019, 362 : 1106). Currently reported CN-bond construction methods often require expensive transition metal catalysts, complex ligands or other toxic reagents, and harsh reaction conditions ( Science , 2019, 366 :990; Nat. Commun ., 2022, 13 (7649); Therefore, the inventors attempted to develop a new, simple, and efficient method for constructing CN bonds. Diazo compounds (R 1 R 2 C=N2) is a class of highly reactive reaction intermediates that can participate in various reactions and construct CX (X=N, O, C, S, P, Si, B, etc.) bonds. Chem. Soc. Rev ., 2016, 45 506, Nature Rev. Chem ., 2019, 3 : 347); Among them, amine (primary amine) compounds can achieve CN bond construction through NH insertion reaction ( Angew. Chem., Int. Ed ., 2017, 56 : 4156; Science , 2019, 366 Based on this, the inventors intend to use only the metal ions in lignite residue to attempt to induce primary amines and aryl diazonium esters to construct CN bonds through metal carbene NH insertion reaction, thereby obtaining secondary amine acetate derivatives and their drug skeletons in one step, thus completing the present invention. Summary of the Invention

[0011] Furthermore, in the method of the present invention described above, the molar mass to weight (g) ratio of the aryl diazonium ester compound to the catalyst lignite residue is 1:300-4000.
[0012] Preferably, in the method of the present invention described above, the solvent in step S1 is acetonitrile.
[0013] Furthermore, in the method of the present invention described above, in step S2, after adding the catalyst lignite residue, the reaction is first carried out at room temperature for 1 hour, and then the reaction is continued at 80°C for 10-12 hours.
[0014] In another embodiment, the present invention also provides the use of lignite residue as a catalyst in the preparation of secondary amine acetate derivatives, using primary amine compounds and aryl diazonium ester compounds as raw materials and lignite residue as a catalyst.
[0015] In yet another embodiment, a secondary amine acetate derivative is selected from the following compounds: , , , and .
[0016] In one specific embodiment, a method for catalytic synthesis of secondary amine acetate derivatives using lignite residue according to the present invention includes the following steps: S1. Using aniline and ethyl phenyldiazoate as raw materials, acetonitrile is added and stirred; S2.

Compared with the currently reported methods for synthesizing secondary amine acetate derivatives, this invention avoids the use of additional transition metal catalysts and complex ligands, and selects lignite residue, which is widely available, as a catalyst. This not only makes it low-cost and environmentally friendly, but also has high catalytic activity and can be repeatedly recycled. The yield is good (the highest separation yield can reach 88%, and the product separation yield can still reach 60% after the catalyst is reused three times). Detailed Implementation

[0086] The successful execution of Example 13 (gram-scale scale-up reaction) demonstrates that the method of the present invention is easy to scale up and has industrialization potential.
[0087] In summary, compared with Comparative Examples 1-4 which used other acid or base catalysts, metal catalysts, or sludge catalysts, Examples 1-14, using lignite residue as a catalyst, showed a significant advantage in product yield under the same reaction conditions. This invention uses lignite residue as a catalyst, which is widely available, inexpensive, and readily accessible; the reaction conditions are mild, the yield is good (the highest separation yield can reach 88%), and it is easy to achieve gram-scale scale-up, possessing industrialization potential. It provides an effective strategy for the synthesis of secondary amine acetate derivatives and their drug skeletons. Simultaneously, it achieves the recycling of waste resources (the product separation yield can still reach over 60% after the lignite residue catalyst is reused three times), and to some extent alleviates the problem of lignite residue disposal difficulties, aligning with the principles of green environmental protection and green chemistry.
