Description

A kind of novel method for preparing optically active alpha-aminonitriles
Invention field
The present invention relates to a kind ofly prepare the novel method of optically active alpha-aminonitriles, and the optically active alpha-aminonitriles that is made by this method is as the application of intermediate in synthetic opticity organic compound by the enantio-selectivity hydrocyanation of imines.
Prior art
As everyone knows, in the organic synthesis field, the imines hydrocyanation can make alpha-aminonitriles.And can obtaining a-amino acid, the alpha-aminonitriles hydrolysis also knows.
At present, most a-amino acids comprise asymmetric center.No matter be direct use, still as the synthetic more intermediate of complex organic compound, the non-racemic form that obtains these a-amino acids (and corresponding alpha-aminonitriles precursor) is normally very important.
A lot of methods that prepare optically-active a-amino acid or alpha-aminonitriles are arranged in the literature, these methods mainly are based on following method: carry out the fractionation of racemic mixture with liquid phase chromatography, or split for example also undocumented french patent application 98/06339 with alkaloid or enzymatic method.
These method for splitting have those shortcomings of existing method, are difficult to industrialization and quite expensive.Its reason is that the method for using is very expensive, and splits principle itself and be actually and separate, and obtains two enantiomorphs, and conceivable usually just one of enantiomorph.
Industrial method-the term " industrial method " of preparation optically-active a-amino acid or alpha-aminonitriles is meant any preparation method-needs enantio-selectivity synthesis method except that prepared in laboratory, promptly only produce required enantiomorph, and the very high synthetic method of this enantiomeric purity.
The method that the imines hydrocyanation prepares alpha-aminonitriles is known.And up to now, the stereoselectivity hydrocyanation method of imines reacts particularly including stoichiometric non-enantiomer selectivity, and this reaction realizes by introduce the chiral induction agent on nitrogen.The example that produces chirality with catalyzer seldom.In this case, catalyzer is alkaline, and itself is the derivative of a-amino acid.The example of making catalyzer with Salen-aluminium mixture is disclosed in J.Am.Chem.Soc. (1998), 120,4901-4902.
People's such as H.Ishitani research (Angew.Chem.Int.Ed., 37 (22), (1998) 3186-8), have introduced the use zirconium-containing catalyst, the enantio-selectivity synthetic method of the alpha-aminonitriles that is begun by aldimine.Yet these researchs only limit to the hydrocyanation of aldimine, this method can not obtain with amino and carbon that carboxyl links to each other on be with two substituent a-amino acids.
One object of the present invention is to propose a kind ofly to prepare the method for optically active alpha-aminonitriles by the enantio-selectivity hydrocyanation of imines, can obtain the optically-active a-amino acid thus, and not have above-mentioned shortcoming.
One object of the present invention be to propose a kind of imines that passes through, or the enantio-selectivity hydrocyanation of preferred ketoimine prepares the method for optically active alpha-aminonitriles.
Another object of the present invention is to propose a kind of method for preparing optically active alpha-aminonitriles by imines, particularly ketoimine.
Another object of the present invention is to propose a kind of method that imines, particularly ketoimine prepare optically active alpha-aminonitriles of passing through, and is all very high by the enantiomeric purity and the productive rate of this method gained.
It is existing that oneself finds that according to method of the present invention, all these purposes can realize partly or entirely that this method is described below.
The invention summary
The present invention includes and a kind ofly prepare the novel method of optically active alpha-aminonitriles, it is characterized in that, ketoimine is contacted with hydrocyanation reagent in the presence of as the metal composite of catalyzer by the enantio-selectivity hydrocyanation of ketoimine.This catalyzer can be the monometallic type, and promptly every mol catalyst only contains a metal ion, or bimetal type, and promptly every mol catalyst contains two metal ions.
This method can make optically active alpha-aminonitriles, and its hydrolysis can obtain the optically-active a-amino acid, alpha-amino group ester and alpha-amino group acid amides.In other place of this specification sheets, except particularly pointing out, term " a-amino acid " not only comprises acid, also comprises ester and amide derivatives that these are sour.
Thus obtained optically-active a-amino acid can be used as the preparation chiral material synthetic intermediate, these chiral materials the treatment or agriculture aspect particularly useful.For example, disclosed in patent EP-A-0 629 616, these optically-active a-amino acids can be used as the intermediate of some mycocides of preparation such as 2-tetrahydroglyoxaline-5 ketone and 2-tetrahydroglyoxaline-5-thioketones.
