As a common heterocyclic compound, it belongs to chiral-nitrogen-ligands compound, name is (R)-(+)-N,N-Dimethyl-1-ferrocenylethylamine, and cas is 31886-58-5, its synthesis route is as follows.
b) Preparation of A1 (Mixture of Diastereomers); 15.5 ml (23.2 mmol) of t-butyllithium (t-BuLi) (1.5 M in pentane) are added dropwise to a solution of 5.98 g (23.2 mmol) of (R)-1-dimethylamino-1-ferrocenylethane in 40 ml of DE at <-10 C. After stirring for 10 minutes at the same temperature, the temperature is allowed to rise to room temperature and the mixture is stirred for another 1.5 hours. This gives a solution of the compound X2 which is added via a cannula to the cooled suspension of the monochlorophosphine X1 at such a rate that the temperature does not exceed -30 C. After stirring at -30 C. for a further 10 minutes, the temperature is allowed to rise to 0 C. and the mixture is stirred at this temperature for another 2 hours. The reaction mixture is admixed with 20 ml of water. The organic phase is separated off, dried over sodium sulphate and the solvent is distilled off under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator. Purification by chromatography (silica gel 60; eluent=heptane/EtOAc/Et3N 85:10:5) gives 11.39 g of the desired product as a mixture of 2 diastereomers.
This compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route,31886-58-5,(R)-(+)-N,N-Dimethyl-1-ferrocenylethylamine,its application will become more common.
