Aminocarbonylation of propylene (ethylene) epoxide over Co2(CO)8 catalyst modified by bidental O-containing ligand for synthesis of β-hydroxy amides

doi:10.3969/j.issn.1000-5641.2023.01.002

Abstract

Abstract:

This work reports a one-step protocol for the synthesis of β-hydroxyamides via amino-carbonylation of epoxides using aromatic amines as the ammonia source instead of silylamine. The reaction was catalyzed by Co₂(CO)₈ modified with bidentate O-containing ligand L2, which was prepared by the oxidation of Xantphos [9,9-dimethyl-4,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)xanthene] by H₂O₂ as a diphosphine-dioxide. Under mild conditions (60 °C, CO 3.0 MPa, 6 h), L2-modified Co₂(CO)₈ efficiently catalyzed the amino-carbonylation of propylene oxide with aniline to generate 3-hydroxy-N-phenylbutanamide with the yield of 64%. The developed catalytic system exhibited fair stability and general substrate scope.

Key words: propylene oxide, ethylene oxide, aminocarbonylation, Co₂(CO)₈, β-hydroxy amides
