乙醇 2- 的催化不对称的加氢的申请(benzo [b ] thiophen-5-yl ) 为认知 enhancer T-588 的正式合成的 -2-oxoacetate 被描述。加氢作为添加剂与 HCl 在 Ru-SunPhos 系统的催化作用下面被进行。乙醇 2-(benzo [b ] thiophen-5-yl )-2-hydroxy-acetate 与 98.6% ee 被获得,它能容易在简单再结晶以后被升级到 99.5% ee 并且在 T-588 的合成用作关键中介。
Application of catalytic asymmetric hydrogenation of ethyl 2-(benzo[b]thiophen-5-yl)-2-oxoacetate for the formal synthesis of cognitive enhancer T-588 is described. The hydrogenation was conducted under the catalysis of Ru-SunPhos system with HC1 as additive. Ethyl 2-(benzo[b]thiophen-5-yl)-2-hydroxy-acetate was obtained with 98.6% ee, which could be easily upgraded to 99.5% ee after a simple recrystallization and served as the key intermediate in the synthesis of T-588.
