Synthesis of a TNF inhibitor, flurbiprofen and an: I -Pr analogue in enantioenriched forms by copper-catalyzed propargylic substitution with Grignard reagents

The copper-catalyzed substitution reaction of diethyl phosphate derived from TMSCCCH(OH)CH2CH2OTBDPS with 3-c-C5H9-4-MeOC6H3MgBr, followed by several transformations, afforded a tumor necrosis factor inhibitor possessing a Ph-acetylene moiety. The inhibitor was also synthesized from phenylacetylene phosphate PhCCCH(OP(O)(OEt)2)CH2CH2OTBDPS. Furthermore, the substitution of phosphates derived from TMSCCCH(OH)CH3 and TMSCCCH(OH)-i-Pr with 3-F-4-PhC6H3MgBr gave the corresponding substitution products, which were transformed to flurbiprofen and its i-Pr analogue, respectively. The copper-catalyzed substitutions in these syntheses proceeded in a regio- and stereoselective manner. This journal is

Method for promoting acylation of amine or alcohol by carbon dioxide

The invention relates to a method for promoting acylation of amine or alcohol by carbon dioxide, which comprises the following steps of: mixing an amine compound, carboxylate or thiocarboxylate compound and a reaction solvent under the action of carbon dioxide, and reacting to obtain an amide compound, or under the action of carbon dioxide, mixing the alcohol compound, the thiocarboxylate compound and the reaction solvent [gamma]-valerolactone, and reacting to obtain the ester compound. According to the invention, under the promotion action of carbon dioxide, carboxylate or thiocarboxylate is used as an acylation reagent, and amine and alcohol are converted into amide and ester compounds in the absence of a transition metal catalyst, so that acylation reagents such as acyl chloride or anhydride with irritation and corrosivity are avoided; and the method has the advantages of simple operation, mild reaction conditions, high tolerance of substrate functional groups, strong applicability and high yield, and provides an efficient, reliable and economical preparation method for synthesis of amide and ester compounds.
