Description

Polyacetylenes are widely known for their usefulness as functional organic materials such as conductive polymers. In particular, polyacetylene having a sterically bulky substituent is particularly expected to exhibit significant function due to its unique structure. 4-Ethynylphenanthrene derivatives are highly useful as monomer materials for these useful polyacetylenes.
This time, we have developed a new compound 1,1-dialkyl-3- (4-phenanthrenyl) -2-propyn-1-ol that makes it possible to industrially mass-produce 4-ethynylphenanthrene derivatives, which are monomers of polyacetylenes. Derivatives were found. The present invention relates to the novel compound 1,1-dialkyl-3- (4-phenanthrenyl) -2-propyn-1-ol derivative and a production method thereof.

Conventionally, the synthesis of 4-ethynylphenanthrene derivatives has been extremely complicated and cumbersome and has never been practically mass-produced. For example, as for 4-ethynylphenanthrene, only a method by strong base treatment of 4- (bromoethenyl) phenanthrene obtained by conversion of 10 or more steps using naphthalene as a starting material has been reported. In order to obtain useful functional organic material polyacetylenes, a method for mass-producing the 4-ethynylphenanthrene derivative as a monomer is awaited.

In order to realize industrial production of 4-ethynylphenanthrene derivatives, a synthesis method that is easy to operate in a short process and satisfies the condition of high yield, which is different from conventional synthesis methods, is desired.
The present invention provides a novel compound 1,1-dialkyl-3- (4-phenanthrenyl)-as a useful precursor for easily synthesizing a 4-ethynylphenanthrene derivative, which has heretofore been extremely difficult to obtain industrially. It is to provide a 2-propyn-1-ol derivative and to provide a novel industrial synthesis method of the 1,1-dialkyl-3- (4-phenanthrenyl) -2-propyn-1-ol derivative.

    We easily synthesize 1,1-dialkyl-3- (4-phenanthrenyl) -2-propyn-1-ol derivatives by cross-coupling reaction of 4-bromophenanthrenes with acetylene compounds using palladium complexes as catalysts. I found it possible. This synthesis method is a novel production method that has never been reported so far.

A 4-ethynylphenanthrene derivative represented by the following formula is obtained.

    According to the present invention, a 4-ethynylphenanthrene derivative, which is a monomer of polyacetylene, which is a functional organic material, is produced via a novel compound 1,1-dialkyl-3- (4-phenanthrenyl) -2-propyn-1-ol derivative. Can be obtained.

That is, a novel compound 1,1-dialkyl-3- (4-phenanthrenyl) -2-propyn-1-ol derivative is obtained by converting palladium of 4-bromophenanthrene and 1,1-dialkyl-2-propyn-1-ol into palladium. The novel compound 1,1-dialkyl-3- (4-phenanthrenyl) -2-propyn-1-ol derivative thus obtained can be easily synthesized by a cross-coupling reaction using a catalyst. The 4-ethynylphenanthrene derivative can be easily produced by the separation reaction.

  According to the process of the present invention, compound formula II and 0.9 to 1.5 equivalents of compound formula III are dissolved in a secondary or tertiary amine, preferably triethylamine, and 0.005 to 0.1 equivalents of zero valence. Alternatively, the reaction is carried out in the presence of a divalent palladium complex and 0.005 to 0.1 equivalents of copper (I) iodide at an appropriate temperature of room temperature to 150 ° C. in an inert gas atmosphere for 0.5 to 10 hours. As a result, the 1,1-dialkyl-3- (4-phenanthrenyl) -2-propyn-1-ol derivative represented by the formula I is obtained in an almost quantitative yield.

  Good results can be obtained using generally available, for example, tetrakis (triphenylphosphine) palladium or bis (triphenylphosphine) palladium dichloride as a zero-valent or divalent palladium complex. Even when another isolated palladium complex or a palladium complex generated in the system by adding tertiary phosphine to palladium acetate or palladium carbon is used, the cross-coupling reaction easily proceeds.

In the elimination reaction, generally known reaction conditions may be used. For example, there are a method of treating with sodium hydroxide or potassium carbonate in methanol, a method of treating with tetrabutylammonium fluoride in tetrahydrofuran, and a method of treating with sodium hydride in a BTX solvent such as toluene.

Synthesis of 1,1-dimethyl-3- (4-phenanthrenyl) -2-propyn-1-ol (Compound 1) 1.2 equivalents of 4-bromophenanthrene and 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol were added to triethylamine 10 Then, 0.02 equivalents of bis (triphenylphosphine) palladium dichloride and 0.02 equivalents of copper (I) iodide were added at room temperature under a nitrogen atmosphere. The reaction mixture was kept at the boiling point and stirred for 4.5 hours. The reaction solution was concentrated under reduced pressure to distill off triethylamine, 20 parts of ethyl acetate was added to the residue, and the precipitate was removed by Celite filtration. The precipitate was washed 3 times with 10 parts of ethyl acetate and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. When the obtained residue was separated and purified on a silica gel column (hexane / ethyl acetate (95: 5)), crude crystals of compound 1 were quantitatively obtained.
