The invention provides a chiral
delta-
lactam compound as well as a preparation method and application thereof. The preparation method of the chiral
delta-
lactam compound comprises the following steps: taking a 1, 4, 2-dioxazole-5-
ketone derivative and a nucleophilic
reagent as raw materials, and reacting under the action of a chiral
metal catalyst and an additive to generate the chiral
delta-
lactam compound. According to the synthesis strategy, under the
catalysis of a chiral Ir (III) catalyst, an olefin part in a
substrate molecule and electrophilic
metal nitrogen are subjected to an
electrophilic addition reaction to generate a
carbocation intermediate, then 1, 2-negative
hydrogen migration is carried out under the promotion of a
chiral ligand, more stable aza carbocations are formed, and the chiral Ir (III) compound is synthesized. And a nucleophilic
reagent captures the compound to form a delta-lactam compound containing a continuous gamma, delta-chiral center. The method has excellent yield,
diastereomer selectivity and
enantiomer selectivity, and is compatible with various carbon,
nitrogen and
oxygen nucleophilic reagents and biological related molecules. The invention provides a brand-new efficient
route for synthesis of the chiral delta-lactam compound.
