## Background
CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
The present application is a U.S. National Phase of International Patent Application Serial No. PCT/KR2015/000994, entitled “METHOD OF PREPARING SILYLATIVE-REDUCED N-HETEROCYCLIC COMPOUND USING ORGANOBORON CATALYST,” filed on Jan. 29, 2015, which claims priority to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2014-0156194, entitled “METHOD OF PREPARING SILYLATIVE-REDUCED N-HETEROCYCLIC COMPOUND USING ORGANOBORON CATALYST,” filed on Nov. 11, 2014, the entire contents of each of which are hereby incorporated by reference for all purposes.
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to a method of preparing a silylative-reduced N-heterocyclic compound by reducing an N-heteroaromatic compound including a sp2 hybridized nitrogen atom while simultaneously introducing a silyl group into a beta-position with respect to a nitrogen atom of the N-heteroaromatic compound, using a silane compound, in the presence of an organoboron catalyst.
BACKGROUND ART
A heterocyclic compound has a basic framework of a natural product, and in particular, a piperidine-based derivative and a tetrahydroquinoline-based derivative, having a substituent, are widely used as an important intermediate and an important synthetic unit in pharmaceutical industries such as alkaloids, pharmaceutical products and agrichemical products, and material industries, such that methods of preparing these derivatives have been variously researched.
As a method of synthesizing the piperidine-based derivative and the tetrahydroquinoline-based derivative, having the substituent, a reduction method of N-heteroaromatic cyclic compounds such as a pyridine-based derivative and a quinoline-based derivative has been known.
In the reduction of the N-heteroaromatic cyclic compound has a significantly high reaction barrier, unlike a reduction of a hydrocarbon-aromatic cyclic compound, there is deactivation or poisoning pathway with respect to a reducing agent or a catalyst due to high basicity of a sp3-nitrogen atom newly produced from a reaction product, and there are no chemical- and regio-selectivity, which is partially reduced.
One of the known reduction methods of the N-heteroaromatic cyclic compound is to use a stoichiometric metal hydride including NaBH4, LiAlH4 or reactive metals (for example: Na), which may have problems such as limited ranges of starting materials, a large amount of waste, and the like, in addition to the above-described problems.
In addition, a reduction reaction of the N-heteroaromatic cyclic compound using hydrogen gas (H2) under a metal-mediated condition or a metal-free condition is also performed under high pressure (H2) and increased temperature, which causes formation of excessively reduced products, such that there is a limitation in introducing functional groups.
Further, in the case of a reduction method of the N-heteroaromatic cyclic compound using hydrosilane under a metal-mediated condition, partially reduced products may be formed, which do not have regioselectivity.
That is, as described above, the existing reduction of the N-heteroaromatic cyclic compound requires severe reaction conditions or shows low regioselectivity through multi-steps, and sometimes requires the use of high-priced metal catalyst.
Therefore, there is a need for a simpler and economical process under a mild condition, completely excluding the severe reaction conditions, the multi-step synthesis, and the use of high-priced metal catalyst required in the existing known methods.

The silylative-reduction may be performed at a reaction temperature of 23 to 100° C. in order to prevent deterioration of the reaction yield caused by an excessively increased reaction time or occurrence of side products.
The reaction time of the silylative-reduction according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention may vary according to reaction materials, amounts of the reaction materials, kinds of solvents, and amounts of the solvents. The reaction time may be 10 mins to 24 hours. When the reaction time is over the above-described range, the side products may occur due to an excessively increased reaction time, such that reaction yield may be deteriorated.
When the reaction is completed, the solvent is distilled under reduced pressure, and a target material may be separated and purified by general methods such as column chromatography, recrystallization, and the like.

R11 to R15 are each independently hydrogen, (C1-C10)alkyl, (C1-C10)alkoxy, (C6-C12)aryl, halogen or (C6-C12)aryloxy, and the alkyl, aryl and aryloxy of R11 to R15 may be further substituted with (C1-C10)alkyl;
R8 and R9 are each independently (C1-C10)alkyl or (C6-C12)aryl; and
R10 is hydrogen or (C6-C12)aryl;
provided that R8, R9 and R10 are not (C6-C12)aryl at the same time.
