  When carried out in accordance with the above-described method for synthesizing optically active dialkylborane, dialkylborane is generated in the system via monoalkylborane. At this time, since an equilibrium exists between the monoalkylborane and the dialkylborane, the reaction solution is a mixture of the monoalkylborane and the dialkylborane. It is dialkylborane that exhibits high stereoselectivity, and monoalkylborane has low stereoselectivity.

  The addition amount of the activator is preferably 2.0 to 2.4 mol times, more preferably 2.0 to 2.2 mol times with respect to the pyrroline derivative. The upper limit is preferably 2.4 mol times or less because the reaction rate decreases when the amount of the activator is too large.

  In the first step of the present invention, the optically active dialkylborane and the nitrogen-containing cyclic olefin are reacted in a solvent. Specific examples of the solvent used in the first step include tetrahydrofuran, diglyme, dimethoxyethane, triglyme, tetrahydropyran. And aliphatic ethers such as anisole and ethoxybenzene, hydrocarbons such as benzene and xylene, and halogenated hydrocarbons such as chloroform, dichloromethane and carbon tetrachloride. Preferred are aliphatic ethers and aromatic ethers, and more preferred are aliphatic ethers.

  In addition, you may use the reaction system containing the solvent used for the synthesis | combination of optically active dialkyl borane as it is for the 1st process.

  The addition temperature of the nitrogen-containing cyclic olefin in the first step is preferably −10 ° C. to 20 ° C., more preferably −5 ° C. to 10 ° C. The stirring time after adding the nitrogen-containing cyclic olefin is preferably 30 minutes to 3 hours, more preferably 1 hour to 2 hours.

  Next, the second step of the present invention will be described.

  In the second step, the boric acid triester is produced by oxidizing the reaction solution obtained in the first step with an oxidizing agent (oxidation step). As a specific example of the oxidizing agent used in this oxidation step, Examples thereof include hydrogen oxide, perbenzoic acid, oxygen, oxone and the like, preferably hydrogen peroxide, perbenzoic acid and peracetic acid, more preferably hydrogen peroxide.

  Thus, trialkyl borane oxidation reaction using a peroxide produces a trialkyl borate ester. In general, water present in the system causes hydrolysis of boric acid trialkyl ester to give boric acid and an optically active cyclic amino alcohol.

  However, the present inventors have found that in the case of the nitrogen-containing cyclic olefin represented by the above formula (1), the corresponding optically active nitrogen-containing cyclic amino alcohol can be obtained only in a low yield. Therefore, in this invention, the process which decomposes | disassembles boric acid triester by adding alcohol to the reaction liquid (oxidation reaction liquid) obtained by the oxidation reaction which is the said 2nd process as a 3rd process is performed. Thereby, an optically active cyclic amino alcohol can be obtained with a very high yield. The reason why the yield of the optically active cyclic amino alcohol is remarkably improved by performing the third step in this way is not clear, but if the third step is not performed, the corresponding trialkyl borate and water are sufficiently mixed. However, it was considered that the use of alcohol, which is an organic compound having a hydroxyl group, facilitates miscibility with the boric acid trialkyl ester and causes sufficient solvolysis.

  Therefore, in the present invention, the yield of optically active amino alcohol is improved by adding an alcohol to the solution oxidized in the second step to decompose the boric acid triester. This solvolysis proceeds more efficiently when carried out under heating conditions, and the effect of improving the yield becomes remarkable.

Furthermore, the effect that optical purity improves by performing this process is also show | played.
Specifically, it can be performed as follows. That is, after performing the second step by oxidizing with peroxide, alcohol is further added to the oxidation reaction solution and heated. The alcohol used may be an aliphatic alcohol or an aromatic alcohol. Specific examples thereof include aliphatic alcohols such as methanol, ethanol and isopropanol, and aromatic alcohols such as phenol and benzyl alcohol. Preferably, methanol, ethanol and isopropanol are used.

  Further, the amount of alcohol used after reacting with the oxidizing agent is usually preferably 3 mol times or more, more preferably 4 mol times or more with respect to the nitrogen-containing cyclic olefin. The upper limit is preferably 5 mol times or less from the viewpoint of productivity.

  Moreover, the temperature at the time of alcohol addition is not particularly limited, but is preferably 20 ° C. or higher, more preferably 40 ° C. or higher, further preferably 50 ° C. or higher in terms of hydrolyzing the boric acid triester. is there. The upper limit is preferably 60 ° C. or less from the viewpoint of suppressing the rapid temperature increase of the reaction accompanying the addition of alcohol.

  The resulting nitrogen-containing optically active amino alcohol is represented by the general formula (2)
