一种新的电解方式对苯乙酮不对称电还原的影响

近十几年来,不对称电合成越来越受到重视。有关苯乙酮不对称电还原已有过不少报道。其中Kariv用奎尼丁作手性吸附诱导剂时,光学收率最高为14.5％。1984年,我们实验室曾以盐酸士的宁为手性吸附诱导剂对苯乙酮进行不对称电还原,光学收率为9.7％,又以四环素类抗菌素为手性吸附诱导剂,得到α-苯乙醇的光学收率为4.8～18.5％。本文研究了不同电解方式和通电量对α-苯乙醇光学收率与化学收率的影响。实验证明静态薄液层电解法优于Kariv的滴加搅拌法,前者可使α-苯乙醇的光学收率达21.8％。

The Effect of a New Electrolysis Mode on Asymmetric Reduction of Acetophenone

This paper reports that acetophenone was reduced by asymmetric electrolysis with strychnine as a chiral inductor. The effect of the mode of electrolysis and the quantity of electricity on the reaction was investigated. It was found that the static-thin-layer mode was better than Kariv's method, the optical yield of a-carbinol was increased from 14.7% to 21.8%.
