  • Patent number: 11299507
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the technical field of chiral synthesis, and specifically provides a new type of oxa-spirodiphosphine ligands. The bisphosphine ligand is prepared with oxa-spirobisphenol as a starting material after triflation, palladium catalyzed coupling with diaryl phosphine oxide, reduction of trichlorosilane, further palladium catalyzed coupling with diaryl phosphine oxide, and further reduction of trichlorosilane. The oxa-spiro compound has central chirality, and thus includes L-oxa-spirodiphosphine ligand and R-oxa-spirodiphosphine ligand. The racemic spirodiphosphine ligand is capable of being synthesized from racemic oxa-spirobisphenol as a raw material. The present invention can be used as a chiral ligand in the asymmetric hydrogenation of unsaturated carboxylic acids. The complex of the ligand with ruthenium can achieve an enantioselectivity of greater than 99% in the asymmetric hydrogenation of methyl-cinnamic acid.
