The application belongs to the technical field of
organic chemistry, and particularly relates to a synthesis method of tri-substituted
ethylene based on an alkyliden transfer strategy. The synthesis method comprises that, in the presence of an alkali or
rare earth complex catalyst, a double (hetero)
aryl methane or
aryl heteroaryl
methane and an alpha, beta-
unsaturated ketone are subjected to an alkyliden transfer reaction in an
organic solvent to form a corresponding tri-substituted
ethylene product. The method has the advantages of small catalyst consumption, mild conditions, no additional additives, easy-to-obtain raw materials, strong reaction universality, simple operation, no salt-type waste, and only one organic by-product, i.e., a
ketone, which is a widely used chemical
raw material and meets the development requirements of
green chemistry. In addition, the alpha, beta-
unsaturated ketone is a new alkylidenating agent for diaryl
methane compounds, is stable, has flexible and changeable structure, has excellent utility in the construction of a multi-substituted olefin compound
library, and greatly improves the yield of the tri-substituted
ethylene product.
