초록/요약
Diorganozinc compounds (R₂Zn) are versatile reagents that are widely used in organic synthesis and as chain-transfer agents in Coordinative Chain Transfer Polymerization (CCTP). However, conventional synthesis using ZnCl₂ and Grignard reagents (RMgX) often produces R₂Zn containing Cl⁻ and Mg2+ impurities, which deactivate CCTP catalysts. Purification using vacuum distillation or treatment with n-BuLi-modified silica removes these impurities, but involve hazardous conditions and are unsuitable for large-scale production. In this study, a facile one- filtration process was developed to safely and efficiently synthesize high-purity R₂Zn compounds. Rapid injection of ZnCl₂ solution into RMgX induces instantaneous reflux, and residual MgCl₂ functions as an active scavenger to eliminate salt-type impurities. The use of diethyl ether or dimethoxymethane (methylal) as the solvent, provided 96–98% yield of R₂Zn with Cl < 5 ppm, Mg = 3–4 ppm, and reproducibly on a 1–100 g scale. This method was successfully applied to various R₂Zn derivatives showing high activity in CCTP. This study provides a scalable and practical route for producing high-purity R₂Zn, which would contribute to the implementation of CCTP technology.
