The present invention relates to a 2-fluorinated acyl-3-aminoacrylonitrile derivative and a method for producing the same.
Heterocyclic compounds into which a fluorine atom has been introduced are used in medicines or agricultural chemicals because these compounds may remarkably improve bioactivity or the like. A 2-fluorinated acyl-3-amino acrylic acid derivative can be converted to a fluorinated heterocyclic compound, such as a pyrazole or a pyridine, as mentioned in Patent Documents 1 and 2, for example. Therefore, it is known that the acrylic acid derivative may serve as an effective intermediate product in the fields of medicine and agricultural chemicals.
Fluorinated heterocyclic compounds that are derived from the above acrylic acid derivative have an ester group, and a desired bioactive substance may be formed by converting the ester group.

If a 2-fluorinated acyl-3-aminoacrylonitrile derivative can be utilized in place of a 2-fluorinated acyl-3-amino acrylic acid derivative, it is possible to obtain a fluorinated heterocyclic compound having a cyano group. Since a cyano group can be easily converted to nitrogen-containing functional groups, which are important for forming bioactive substances, such as an aminomethyl group, an aminocarbonyl group, or an alkoxyimidoyl group, the cyano group can provide different benefits from an ester group. Therefore, provision of fluorinated acrylonitrile derivatives is an important task.
Against this background, the present inventors have conducted research with the aim of obtaining a 2-fluorinated acyl-3-aminoacrylonitrile derivative. As a result, the present inventors have found that a registry number (339011-85-7) has been assigned to 3-(N,N-dimethylamino)-2-trifluoroacetylacrylonitrile. However, it was discovered that no documents concerning synthesizing methods, physical values, applications or the like of the above compound were available and, therefore, there is a need to develop novel production methods or applications in order to utilize fluorinated acrylonitrile derivatives.
The present invention provides a 2-fluorinated acyl-3-aminoacrylonitrile derivative and a method for producing the same.
As a result of extensive research in order to solve the above-described problems, the present inventors have found that a desired 2-fluorinated acyl-3-aminoacrylonitrile derivative can be produced at high yield by a simple operation, by reacting a fluorinated acyl derivative with an aminoacrylonitrile derivative. The acrylonitrile derivative thus obtained is a highly effective intermediate product since it may serve as a precursor of a fluorinated heterocyclic compound having a cyano group. Thus, the present invention has been accomplished.
