The invention discloses a preparation method of an alkynyl bicyclo [3.1. 1]
heptane difluoroacetate compound in the technical field of
organic synthesis, which comprises the following steps: by taking terminal
alkyne, [3.1. 1]
propeller alkane and gem-difluorobromoacetate as initial raw materials, under the condition that the stoichiometric
copper acetylacetonate and 1, 8-diazabicyclo [5.4. 0] undec-7-ene (DBU) are taken as alkalis and
acetonitrile is taken as a
solvent, carrying out a reaction on the initial raw materials to prepare the alkynyl bicyclo [3.1. 1]
heptane difluoroacetate compound. The reaction is carried out through a one-pot method. The process comprises the following key steps: firstly, generating high-activity gem-difluoroacetate free radicals from gem-difluorobromoacetate; the free radical and high-tension [3.1. 1]
propeller alkane are subjected to ring-opening addition, ring tension is released, and a new carbon center free radical intermediate is generated; the intermediate is then captured by alkynyl
copper species generated in situ, and finally a target product is obtained through reduction
elimination. The method is mild in reaction condition and wide in substrate universality, the problems of tedious synthesis steps and low efficiency in the prior art are solved, and a novel and efficient way is provided for preparation of the important molecules.
