Paragraph 0041-0044, (2021/10/13)
A novel highly selective asymmetric synthesis process of 2 -fluorocyclopropylamine (Structural I). The method provided by the invention uses 1 - fluorine -1 - benzene (propylene) sulfonyl methane and chiral epichlorohydrin to construct chiral cyclopropane under basic conditions, and a new synthetic route not only achieves a special cis-trans selectivity, but also has a highly specific stereoselectivity. The synthesis route is efficient, the reaction condition is mild, the method is suitable for large industrial production in a green environment, 2 -fluorocyclopropylamine production cost is greatly reduced.

The first reduction of sulfoxides catalysed by a well-defined manganese complex is described. A variety of sulfoxides are reduced to the corresponding sulfides in high yields using phenylsilane, diphenylsilane, and the economically feasible 1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane (TMDS) as reducing agents in the presence of a Mn-NHC complex. The reaction is performed under air and without the need of any additive. The involvement of radicals in the catalytic reaction is probed by spin-trap experiments.

Herein, a method for the nucleophilic substitution (SN) of benzyl alcohols yielding chloro alkanes is introduced that relies on aromatic sulfoxides as Lewis base catalysts (down to 1.5 mol-%) and benzoyl chloride (BzCl) as reagent. A systematic screening of various sulfoxides and other sulfinyl containing Lewis bases afforded (2-methoxyphenyl)methyl sulfoxide as optimal catalyst. In contrast to reported formamide catalysts, sulfoxides also enable the application of plain acetyl chloride (AcCl) as reagent. In addition, it was demonstrated that weakly electrophilic carboxylic acid chlorides like BzCl promote Pummerer rearrangement of sulfoxides already at room temperature. This side-reaction also provided the explanation, why sulfoxide catalyzed SN-reactions of alcohols do not allow the effective production of aliphatic and electron deficient chloro alkanes. Comparison experiments provided further insight into the reaction mechanism.
