Abstract (en)

[origin: FR2789992A1] Preparation of dicyano-2,2'-bis-(disubstituted phosphino)-1,1'-binaphthyl or biphenyl derivatives (I) comprises: (1) brominating a 2,2'-diol; (2) esterifying the obtained dibromo compound (III) using a sulfonic acid; (3) replacing the Br atoms with cyano by reacting with a nucleophile and (4) coupling with a disubstituted phosphine in presence of transition metal catalyst. Preparation of dicyano-2,2'-bis-(disubstituted phosphino)-1,1'-binaphthyl or biphenyl of formula (I) comprises: (1) brominating a 2,2'-diol of formula (II); (2) esterifying the obtained dibromo compound of formula (III) using a sulfonic acid or its activated derivative; (3) replacing the Br atoms of (III) with cyano groups by reacting the obtained disulfonate with a suitable nucleophile and (4) coupling with a phosphine of formula X-P(Ar<1>)Ar<2> (VI) in the presence of a transition metal-based catalyst. A = naphthyl or phenyl; Ar<1>, Ar<2> = saturated or aromatic carbocyclic group and X = H or halo. Independent claims are included for the following: (i) the preparation of diamine compounds of formula (VII) by reducing (I); (ii) a process as above but including the additional step of converting (I), in basic or acid medium, into the corresponding dicarboxylic acid of formula (A); (iii) new compounds (VII) and (iv) new disulfonate intermediates of formula (IV). P' = aliphatic hydrocarbyl (optionally substituted by carbocyclic aryl) or carbocyclic aryl; provided that P' is other than CF3 or p-tolyl.
