Abstract
New (triorganosilyl)alkynes and their derivatives having general formula R1—C≡C—Z are provided along with methods for the preparation of (triorganosilyl)alkynes and their derivatives having the general formula R1—C≡C—Z. The methods may include silylative coupling of terminal alkynes with halogenotriorganosilanes in the presence of an iridium catalyst and a tertiary amine.
Description

The present invention relates to new selective method for obtaining (triorganosilyl)alkynes and their derivatives by the silylative coupling of terminal alkynes with halogenotriorganosilanes.


Known methods for the synthesis of substituted triorganosilylalkynes may be divided in two groups: non-catalytic reactions, and processes catalyzed with transition metal complexes.


The former comprises mainly stoichiometric reactions between halogenotriorganosilanes and organolithium or organomagnesium compounds. The obtaining of functionalized, substituted triorganosilylalkynes based on stoichiometric reactions of halogenosilanes with alkinyloorganic compounds of lithium or magnesium enables the synthesis of a wide range of this type of compounds (1).


An organosilyl substituent may be introduced also with the use of lithium triorganosilylacetylide (Li+−C≡CSiR3) in a reaction with suitable alkyl-aryl ketones, leading to functionalized substituted triorganosilylalkynes (2).


Alternatively, Arcadi (3) disclosed a method for the synthesis of 1-N,N-bis(trimethylsilyl)amino-3-trimethylsilyloprop-2-yne by reacting lithium N,N-bis(trimethylsilylamino)-propynyl with chlorotrimethylsilane.


Corriu (4) described a method to obtain 1-N,N-bis(trimethylsilyl)amino-3-trimethylsilylprop-2-yne by reacting (3-bromoprop-1-yne-1-yl)trimethylsilane with lithium N,N-bis(trimethylsilyl)amide.


Both methods require the use of strongly reactive organometallic reagents (Li, Mg), which are very expensive or are unstable and must be synthesized just before carrying out the reaction concerned, which makes it difficult to obtain the intended substituted triorganosilylalkynes, especially in a larger scale. The high reactivity of the organometallic derivatives of these metals results in the formation of a large quantity of undesirable reaction products, lowering the yield of the main product (silylalkyne), and making it difficult to isolate such product from the resulting reaction mixture.


Another known method to obtain aminofunctional ethynylsilanes, as disclosed by MacInnnes (5), is a reaction between chlorotrimethylsilane, propargyl bromide, and hexamethyldisilazane, initiated by organic peroxides (5). The use of explosive organic peroxides as initiators of radical reactions is very troublesome: special precautions in carrying out the process and monitoring the course of the process are required.


Another group of methods enabling the synthesis of substituted triorganosilylalkynes are reactions of direct silylation of terminal alkynes in the presence of stoichiometric amounts of zinc salts (ZnCl2, Zn(OSO2CF3)2). This group comprises the silylation of terminal alkynes with the use of silylamines (6), chlorosilanes (7), as well as trimethylsilyl trifluoromethylsulfonate (F3CS(O)2OSiMe3) (8). Although such methods are characterized by good yields and selectivities, they require the use of zinc salts as intermediate reacting substances in at least equimolar amounts relative to the terminal alkyne, as well as very high, even 10-fold, stoichiometric excess of silylating reagents. In the case of chlorosilanes or F3CS(O)2OSiMe3 it is also necessary to use tertiary amines which bind the trifluoromethylsulfonic acid or hydrogen halide being formed during the reaction.


A method is known to synthesize bissilyl-functionalized dialkynes by way of a photochemical reaction of a suitable silylene precursor (such as 1,1-ditertbutylsila-2,3-dimethylcyclopropane) with 1,4-substituted-1,3-butadiyne (9). However, the method is characterized by a very low yield, not exceeding 52%. Ditertbutylsilylene, which is formed during the reaction is an explosive compound, which limits any chances of the commercial use of the method.


Substituted triorganosilylalkynes are obtained in reactions, which are catalyzed by transition metal complexes or salts. An example of a reaction, catalyzed by transition metal complexes, to obtain substituted triorganosilylalkynes, is a coupling reaction between triorganosilylethynyl lithium or magnesium with alkyl halides (10) or ethynyltriorganosilane with alkenyl or aryl halides in the presence of palladium complexes (11). The methods are characterized by highly variable selectivity, which is up to 80%, depending on the type of reacting substances and catalysts used. Proper reaction products are also accompanied by numerous by-products, including dimers of the starting alkynes, which makes it difficult to isolate and purify silylalkynes from the post-reaction mixture.


Those skilled in the art are familiar with methods to obtain triorganosilylalkynes in reactions between terminal alkynes and triorganosubstituted silanes, catalyzed by iridium complexes (12). Such methods are based on dehydrogenative silylation reaction, which produces a triorganosilyl-functionalized alkyne and a number of by-products. If known iridium catalysts are used, the desirable product is obtained with a yield of not more than 40% because other, competing reactions are taking place at the same time. However, the compositions of the resulting post-reaction mixtures are so complex that the method is hardly of any practical use.


Disclosed in the Patent Application WO 2008020774 is a method for the synthesis of substituted triorganosilylalkynes by the silylating coupling of vinyl-substituted compounds of silicon and terminal alkynes in the presence of ruthenium(II) complexes. The process proceeds with good and high yields, although the desirable products may be accompanied by products of homocoupling of vinyl-substituted organosilicon compounds, affecting the process selectivity.


Also known in the art is a method to synthesize triorganosilylsubstituted alkynes in the process of cross-metathesis of 1,2-bis(trimethylsilyl)ethyne with terminal alkynes in the presence of a uranium complex (13). In this case as well, the principal process is accompanied by a number of side reactions, which reduce the yield of triorganosilylsubstituted alkynes, and hinder the operations involved in their isolation and purification; this reduces the final process efficiency.


Functionalized triorganosilylalkynes are also obtained by alkynylation of silylenolates by means of chloroethynyl silane in the presence of gallium(III) chloride (14) or by reacting aldimines with ethynyltrimethylsilane, catalyzed by iridium(I) complexes (15). Although such processes are characterized by high yields and product selectivities, they require the use of specific substrates in the form of aldimines, or unstable substituted chloroethynyl silanes, which limits the applicability of the method to the synthesis of only selected triorganosilyl-functionalized alkynes.


Those skilled in the art are also familiar with the method, as described by Arcadi (3), for the catalytic synthesis of substituted 1-(aminoacyl)-2-(triorganosilypalkynes in a reaction between ethynyltriorganosilanes and haloarylamines in the presence of the complex [Pd(O(O)CCH3)2(PPh3)2] and triethylamine, which produces respective 1-(H2N-arylo)-2-(triorganosilyl)ethynes. Such compounds are an intermediate product in the synthesis of 1-(N,N-bis(triorganosilylamino)aryl)-2-(triorganosilyl)ethynes, because only in the second step it is necessary to carry out the reaction substituting the hydrogen atoms in the amine group NH2 with triorganosilyl substitutes. The method has the important drawback of the necessity to use very specific haloarylamines.


Tomioka (16) described the method of coupling ethynyltriorganosilanes with respective halo-nitroaryl derivatives in the presence of the complex [PdCl2(PPh3)2] and triethylamines whereby respective 1-(O2N-arylo)-2-(triorganosilyl)ethynes are obtained.


Such compounds are an intermediate in the synthesis of 1-(N,N-bis(triorganosilylamino)aryl)-2-(triorganosilyl)ethynes, because only the following steps comprise the reduction of the nitro group (—NO2) to the amine group (NH2), followed by the substitution of hydrogen atoms in the amine group —NH2 with triorganosilyl substitutes.


It was the purpose of this invention to provide a new method for obtaining (triorganosilyl)alkynes and their derivatives.


The invention relates to a method to obtain new and conventional (triorganosilyl)alkynes and their derivatives having the general formula 1,

R1—C≡C—Z  (1)

        • if n denotes 0, then R5 and R6 are equal to each other or different,
        • if n=1 then R5, R6, R7 and R8 are equal to one another.





Unexpectedly, it was discovered that some iridium(I) complexes having the general formula 4 form, in the presence of a tertiary amine having the general formula 5, an amine complex having the general formula 6 which catalyzes the selective reaction of silylative coupling of terminal alkynes with halogenosilanes, which produces (triorganosilyl)alkynes or their derivatives.


The catalyst used is an iridium complex having the general formula 4,

The iridium complex forms, with the amine which functions as co-catalyst, a complex having the general formula 6

[IrCl(L)(NA1A2A3)]  (6)

in which L, A1A2A3 denote the same as stated above and this complex only shows catalytic properties in the method of the invention.


The catalyst, of which the structure has changed as the result of combination with the amine, catalyzes the selective reaction of silylative coupling of terminal alkynes with halogenosilanes, producing (triorganosilyl)alkynes and their derivatives.


Preferably, the catalyst used is the complex [{Ir(μ-Cl)(CO)2}2].


The amine complex may be formed both in the reaction between a terminal alkyne and a halogenosilane, or may be introduced thereto as a final amine complex. In the former case, the amine and the iridium complex are added to the reaction medium and the amine complex is obtained in the course of mixing; in the latter, the amine and the iridium complex are dissolved in a solvent and mixed until the dissolution of the starting iridium complex, which functions as a pre-catalyst, and the formation with the tertiary amine of the proper catalyst which is introduced in a suitable ratio to the proper reaction medium.


In the method of the invention, the iridium complex is used in an amount in the range from 0.01 to 4 mol % relative to the functional terminal ethynyl group.


The amine having the formula 5 is used with an at least 2.2-fold excess relative to the iridium ion in the complex used plus an at least stoichiometric amount relative to the hydrogen halide formed in the reaction between the terminal alkyne and halogenosilanes.


The tertiary amine used in the method of the invention has a double role: on the one hand, it functions as a co-catalyst which, after being combined with the complex having the general formula 4, will change its structure and lead to the formation of a complex having the general formula 6; on the other, its excess binds the hydrogen halide which is formed in the reaction.

The iridium catalyst used is an iridium complex having the general formula 4, preferably [{Ir(μ-Cl)(CO)2}2].


The catalyst is used in an amount in the range from 0.01 to 4 mole % relative to the functional terminal alkyne group, preferably in an amount in the range 0.5-1 mole %. In the synthesis of the compounds containing amine substitutes, the catalyst, preferably, is used in an amount in the range from 0.5 to 2 mole %.


In all the embodiments of the invention, a tertiary amine having the general formula 5 is introduced, in a solvent at ambient temperature and with vigorous mixing, to an iridium complex, having the general formula 4, in the form of suspension, and mixing is continued until the iridium complex is dissolved.


A suitable terminal alkyne and a triorganohalogenosilane are introduced one after another to the resulting system at a room temperature and the resulting reaction mixture is heated to a temperature above 60° C. but not higher than 140° C. until the reaction is completed, i.e., until the complete conversion of the starting terminal alkyne, whereupon raw product is isolated and purified.


The reaction is carried out under inert gas in a solvent selected from the group comprising aromatic organic compounds, most preferably in toluene.


The reaction runs at any selected ratio of the reacting substances, however, unfavourable ratios lead to the formation of a number of by-products. If the halogenotriorganosilane is used at equimolar amounts relative to a single alkyne group in the terminal alkyne, the process selectivity will not reach its achievable maximum value because the products of a number of competitive reactions, i.e., trimerization and oligomerization of the starting terminal alkyne, are formed in addition to the desirable product. If the system comprises an at least 0.1-fold stoichiometric excess of the halogenotriorganosilane and the tertiary amine relative to a single alkyne group, then selectivity is shifted towards the proper product having the general formula 1 by a more efficient binding of hydrogen halide in the form of a suitable hydrogen ammonium salt [HNA1A2A3]X, which results in effect in increased process selectivity. According to the invention, the reaction is preferably carried out at a 0.4-0.7-fold molar excess of the halogenotriorganosilane and 0.5-0.8-fold molar excess of the tertiary amine relative to a single functional alkyne group. According to the invention, the reaction is carried out at a temperature in the range from 60-140° C., most preferably at 80° C. Generally, the reaction time is 24 hrs.


According to the method of the invention, the synthesis is carried out under inert gas, most preferably argon, in a reactor, which is protected from moisture. All liquid reacting substances and the solvent ought to be dehydrated and deoxidized because of the sensitivity and possible decomposition of the catalyst and the starting halogenosilane in the presence of trace amounts of water and oxygen. The reaction mixture is then heated and mixed until the reaction is complete.


Reversing the sequence in which the reacting substances are added, i.e., first the halogenotriorganosilane, second the alkyne, and third the tertiary amine, is also possible although this may lead to reduced process selectivity or a completely blocked activity of the iridium catalytic system.


Raw product is isolated and purified by known methods. Generally, isolation consists in evaporation of the solvent from the post-reaction mixture, followed by separation of the raw product from the catalyst and hydrogen triorganoammonium halide, which is formed as a by-product, on a silica gel-packed chromatographic column, using aliphatic hydrocarbons, preferably hexane or pentane, as eluent.


In contrast to previously known, prior-art methods, synthesis according to the method of the invention is a method of which the selectivity reaches 98%, in which the catalyst is used in small amounts and a much smaller stoichiometric excess of the halogenotriorganosilane and the tertiary amine, compared to the known method, described by Jiang.


The compounds obtained by the method of the invention are useful as substrates, enabling the synthesis of molecular and macromolecular compounds with a high π-conjugated multiple-bond systems with precisely dedicated chemical, electronic, and optoelectronic properties for use in the manufacturing of electronic luminescent, photoluminescent elements, or photosensors.


The subject of the present invention is illustrated by means of examples, which are intended to illustrate rather than limit the scope of the invention.


Products are identified based on the results of:

    • spectral analysis of 1H, 13C and 29Si NMR, which have been recorded using the spectrometers Brucker Ultra Shield 600 MHz and Varian Mercury VT 400 MHz.
    • elemental analysis, performed using Vario EL Elemental apparatus.
