Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the fields of organic catalysis and asymmetric catalysis, and relates to a biphasic synergistic nitrogen heterocyclic carbene-oxynitrile adduct catalyst, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Acyl migration reactions are a class of highly practical organic reactions. Essentially, they involve the transfer of acyl groups within or between substrates to achieve skeletal rearrangement or functional group interconversion, making them an efficient method for synthesizing complex molecules. Acyl migration reactions exhibit diverse migration modes and broad substrate adaptability, and are widely used in the total synthesis of natural products, drug molecule modification, and molecular design (Burke HM, McSweeney L, Scanlan E M). Nat. Commun., 2017, 8 (15655.). In the development of asymmetric acyl transfer reactions, the activation of acyl donors using nucleophilic catalysts is an important and classic strategy. In 2003, Fu et al. reported planar chiral DMAP derivatives as chiral acyl transfer catalysts, achieving the construction of indolone structures with a chiral quaternary carbon center at the C3 position via acyl transfer reactions. (IDHills and GCFu, 15655.) Angew. Chem., Int. Ed., 2003, 42 (3921-3924). Between 2015 and 2019, Suga's group systematically studied the application of DMAP-type chiral catalysts in asymmetric acyl migration reactions. They constructed C3-functionalized DMAP catalysts via the Ugi multicomponent reaction and applied them to the acyl rearrangement reaction of indole carbonates, achieving a yield of 98% and an enantiomeric ratio of 99:1. Subsequently, they developed an axially chiral BINOL-DMAP catalyst, catalyzing the acyl migration of phenyl carbonate substrates at a catalyst dosage of 0.5 mol%, yielding hydroxyindole derivatives with an enantiomeric ratio greater than 98:2. This was further applied to the benzofuran carbonate system, achieving high regioselectivity (α:γ = 10:90) and an enantioselectivity of 95:5 (H. Suga and A. Kakehi, 3921-3924). Chem. Commune ,2015, 51 , 5932-5935;H. Suga and A. Kakehi, Org. Lett. ,2016, 18 , 3626–3629;H. Suga and A. Kakehi, J. Org. Chem. .,2019, 84(13540-13549). However, existing asymmetric catalytic systems for acyl migration reactions still have certain limitations, such as numerous catalyst synthesis steps, high raw material costs, and a limited range of applicable substrates. Furthermore, some reaction systems still require relatively harsh reaction conditions. Therefore, developing novel chiral catalysts with novel structures, easy preparation, and high efficiency in catalyzing acyl migration reactions to achieve efficient asymmetric synthesis of indolones and benzofuranones containing chiral quaternary carbon centers is of significant research importance and application value.
[0003] Nitrogen heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs), as important ligands and nucleophilic catalysts, have been widely studied and applied in fine organic synthesis. Nitriles, as typical 1,3-dipolar compounds, can combine with nitrogen heterocyclic carbenes to form nitrogen heterocyclic carbene-nitrile adducts (M. Temprado, S. Majumdar, CD Hoff, et al.). Structure Chem. 2013, 24 (2059). Although the potential applications of chiral nitrogen heterocyclic carbene oxidizing nitrile adducts in asymmetric organic synthesis have gradually attracted attention, research on synergistic stereoregulation through the introduction of multi-chiral elements remains relatively lacking. To address this deficiency, this invention discloses a nitrogen heterocyclic carbene-oxidizing nitrile adduct catalyst with bichiral synergistic effects, its preparation method, and its applications. Through the synergistic effect of intramolecular chiral nitrogen heterocyclic carbene and chiral oxidizing nitrile units, a highly efficient and novel catalytic system is provided for asymmetric synthesis. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This invention provides a method for preparing a chiral oxynitrile adduct catalyst based on bipolar synergy and its application in asymmetric acyl migration reactions. By introducing chiral oxynitrile structural units into the nitrogen heterocyclic carbene skeleton, a bipolar catalytic system is constructed, enabling the two chiral factors, nitrogen heterocyclic carbene and oxynitrile, to exert a synergistic stereoregulatory effect during the reaction, thereby effectively improving the stereoselectivity of the catalytic reaction. This catalytic system can be applied to the acyl migration reactions of substrates such as 2-indolyl carbonates and benzofuran carbonates, constructing indolones and benzofuranones containing chiral quaternary carbon centers with high yields and good enantioselectivity, demonstrating good catalytic efficiency and application potential.
[0005] The technical solution of the present invention: A bichiral nitrogen heterocyclic carbene-nitrile oxide adduct catalyst is proposed, consisting of two chiral structural units: a chiral nitrogen heterocyclic carbene unit and a chiral nitrile oxide unit. The general molecular formula of the nitrogen heterocyclic carbene-nitrile oxide adduct catalyst is shown below: Among them, R 1 It can be methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, tert-butyl, benzyl, methoxy, ethoxy, n-propoxy, isopropoxy, n-butoxy, or tert-butoxy; R 2 It is (R)-1-methylethoxy, (S)-1-methylethoxy, (R)-1-methylpropoxy, (S)-1-methylpropoxy, (R)-1-methylbutoxy, (S)-1-methylbutoxy, (R)-2-methylbutoxy, (S)-2-methylbutoxy, (R)-1-phenylethoxy or (S)-1-phenylethoxy; R 3 It can be hydrogen, Br, Cl, F, methyl or methoxy.
[0006] By systematically modulating the structure of the nitric oxide moiety, a new chiral control unit is introduced into the existing chiral nitrogen heterocyclic carbene framework, thereby constructing a nitrogen heterocyclic carbene-nitric oxide adduct catalyst system with multiple chiral sources. This multi-chiral synergistic structure can form a more refined stereocontrol environment during catalysis, thus effectively improving the reactivity and enantioselectivity of asymmetric acyl rearrangement reactions.
[0007] A method for preparing a chiral nitrogen heterocyclic carbene-nitrile oxidizing adduct catalyst based on bichiral synergistic reaction involves the following steps: In an inert atmosphere, a chiral nitrogen heterocyclic carbene precursor salt is deprotonated by potassium bis(trimethylsilyl)amino to generate an active carbene, which then undergoes a coupling reaction with a chiral oxidizing nitrile. The reaction solution is filtered, concentrated, recrystallized in a solvent, and vacuum dried to obtain the nitrogen heterocyclic carbene-nitrile oxidizing adduct catalyst.
[0008] Furthermore, the inert atmosphere is argon or nitrogen.
[0009] Further, the solvent is one or a mixture of two or more of the following: tetrahydrofuran, toluene, n-hexane, cyclohexane, dichloromethane, 1,2-dichloroethane, ethylene glycol dimethyl ether, 1,4-dioxane, diethyl ether, and acetonitrile.
[0010] Furthermore, the molar ratio of the chiral nitrogen heterocyclic carbene precursor salt to potassium bis(trimethylsilyl)amino is 1:(0.8~1.2).
[0011] Furthermore, the deprotonation reaction temperature is 0~30℃, and the reaction time is 0.2~24 h.
[0012] The molar ratio of the chiral nitrogen heterocyclic carbene precursor salt to the chiral oxynitrile is 1: (0.5~1.5).
[0013] Furthermore, the coupling reaction is carried out at a temperature of 0–30 °C for 24–72 h.
[0014] Furthermore, the chiral nitrogen heterocyclic carbene precursor salt is: .
[0015] In the application of the above-mentioned nitrogen heterocyclic carbene-oxidizing nitrile adduct catalyst in the asymmetric acyl migration reaction of indole or furan, a molecular sieve is added to the asymmetric acyl migration reaction, and the mass ratio of nitrogen heterocyclic carbene-oxidizing nitrile adduct catalyst to molecular sieve is controlled to be 1: (5~10).
[0016] Furthermore, the molecular sieve is a 3Å molecular sieve, a 4Å molecular sieve, or a 5Å molecular sieve.
[0017] Furthermore, the reaction temperature is 0~30℃, and the reaction time is 12~72 h.
[0018] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: It provides a nitrogen-heterocyclic carbene-nitrile adduct catalyst containing a chiral nitrile oxide structure. This catalyst, by simultaneously introducing chiral nitrogen-heterocyclic carbene units and chiral nitrile oxide units into its molecular structure, forms a synergistic regulatory system with multiple chiral sources. The two chiral elements interact, jointly influencing the stereoinductive ability of the catalyst, thereby effectively improving the asymmetric catalytic activity and selectivity of the reaction. The catalyst can be synthesized using a modular strategy, with relatively simple preparation steps and easily adjustable structure. It demonstrates practical value in catalyzing reactions of indole carbonate and benzofuran substrates, and has potential applications in the asymmetric synthesis of pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals.

[0025] The specific embodiments of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and technical solutions.
[0026] Example 1 In an argon-protected glove box, a chiral nitrogen-heterocyclic carbene precursor salt (1 mmol) was added to a reaction flask of appropriate size, followed by the addition of potassium bis(trimethylsilyl)amino (KHMDS, 1 mol·L⁻¹). -1 THF solution (1 mmol) and anhydrous and oxygen-free THF (8 mL) were stirred at room temperature for 4 h to generate the corresponding nitrogen heterocyclic carbene active species. Then, chiral oxynitrile (1.1 mmol) (R) was added. 1 It is a methoxy group, R 2 For (S)-1-methylpropoxy, R 3 (To be hydrogen), the reaction was continued with stirring at room temperature for 12 h. After the reaction was completed, the reaction system was filtered through a sintered glass funnel, and the solvent was removed from the filtrate under reduced pressure. The crude product was purified by recrystallization using a mixed solvent of THF and n-hexane. Because the polarity and solubility of this product are very similar to those of the impurities, it cannot be separated by conventional column chromatography and can only be purified by recrystallization, resulting in a low purification yield.
[0027] Finally, the target product—a solid nitrogen heterocyclic carbene-oxidizing nitrile chiral catalyst, Al—was obtained by vacuum drying.
