The invention belongs to the technical field of
organic chemistry, and particularly relates to a synthesis method of an alpha, alpha-difluoro-beta-carbonyl
sulfone compound. The method comprises the following steps: with
acetonitrile as a
solvent, carrying out a reaction on
aryl diazonium salt,
sodium metabisulfite and 2,2-difluoroenol
silyl ether with Ru(bpy)3Cl2.6H2O being a
photosensitizer under
blue light irradiation to obtain the 2, 2-difluoroenol
silyl ether photosensitizer, thereby generating
aryl sulfonyl free radicals from
aryl diazonium salt and
sodium pyrosulfite under the action of
blue light and a
photosensitizer, performing
addition reaction on 2,2-difluoroenol
silyl ether to obtain a free radical intermediate, and performing single-
electron oxidation on the free radical intermediate and an excited photosensitizer to obtain the alpha, alpha-difluoro-beta-carbonyl
sulfone compound. The synthesis method of the compound has the advantages that with the aryl diazonium salt,
sodium metabisulfite and 2,2-difluoroenol silyl
ether, which are easy to obtain, being raw materials, strict
reaction conditions such as strong base and ultralow temperature are not needed, so that the method has the advantages of strong functional group compatibility, wide substrate application range and the like, a series of alpha, alpha-difluoro-beta-carbonyl
sulfone compounds can be efficiently synthesized, and the method has good academic guidance significance and industrial application value.
