在有机催化领域,(硫)脲有机催化指利用脲或硫脲来加快有机反应速率或控制立体化学。与经典的催化方法不同,这种催化方法的利用的是底物和(硫)脲之间形成的氢键作用(可以认为发生“部分质子化”)。(硫)脲有机催化的应用包括立体选择性应用与非立体选择性应用1
历史
Kelly、Etter、Jorgensen、Hine、Curran、Göbel和De Mendoza(参见下文引用的参考文献)在非金属小分子氢键催化领域作出了开创性贡献。Peter R. Schreiner及其同事确定并引入了缺电子的硫脲衍生物作为氢键有机催化剂。Schreiner的选择的硫脲为N,N’-二[3,5-二(三氟甲基)苯基]硫脲,这种催化剂结合了双氢键介导的有机催化剂的所有结构特征:
- 缺电子
- 具有刚性结构
- 苯环的3,4 和/或 5 位上具有非配位吸电子取代基
- 3,5-二(三氟甲基)苯基是优选的取代基
催化剂-底物相互作用
硫脲衍生物和羰基底物之间形成了两个氢键。(硫)脲中共面的两个氨基取代基是氢键的给体。2 3 4 5 方酰胺利用双氢键进行催化的性能通常优于硫脲。 6
Schreiner使用的N,N’-双[3,5-双(三氟甲基)苯基硫脲形成的酮络合物,具有明显的双氢键螯合的特征 4 7 |
硫脲有机催化剂的优点
(硫)脲是符合绿色化学理念要求的催化剂,在应用中具有以下优势:
- 由于氢键的结合焓相对较低,因此(硫)脲催化剂的活性通常不会被产物抑制,但是可以特异性识别底物
- 催化剂用量低(可以低至0.001 mol%)3
- 高TOF (周转频率)值(高达 5,700 h-1 ) 3
- 可以由(手性)伯胺与异硫氰酸酯反应合成,较为简单、廉价
- 性质较稳定,易于处理,不需要惰性气体氛围保护
- 可以固定在固相聚合物上,便于催化剂回收与重复使用3
- 可以在中性、温和条件下进行催化(pKa(硫脲) = 21.0, DMSO)8,可兼容对酸敏感的底物
- 不含金属,与传统含金属的路易斯酸催化剂相比毒性更小
- 耐水,甚至在水溶液体系中仍然具有催化能力9
底物
可接受氢键的底物包括羰基化合物、亚胺、硝基烯烃。 Diels-Alder反应也可以受(硫)脲催化。
