The present invention relates to kinetic resolution of racemic δ-hydroxyl ester via asymmetric catalytic hydrogenation and an application thereof. In the presence of chiral spiro pyridyl phosphine ligand Iridium catalyst and base, racemic δ-hydroxyl esters were subjected to asymmetric catalytic hydrogenation to obtain extent optical purity chiral δ-hydroxyl esters and corresponding 1,5-diols. The method is a new, efficient, highly selective, economical, desirably operable and environmentally friendly method suitable for industrial production. An optically active chiral δ-hydroxyl ester and 1,5-diols can be obtained at very high enantioselectivity and yield with relatively low usage of catalyst. The chiral δ-hydroxyl ester and 1,5-diols obtained by using the method can be used as a critical raw material for asymmetric synthesis of chiral drugs (R)-lisofylline and natural drugs (+)-civet, (−)-indolizidine 167B and (−)-coniine.

The present invention provides one method for the preparation of pharmaceutically acceptable chlorogenic acid, which comprises the following steps: a. Treating the sample aqueous solution; b. Freezing; c. Thawing and filtering; d. Treating the residue organic phase; e. Concentrating and crystallizing; f. Choosing the number of times to repeat steps a-e according to the variability of chlorogenic acid content in samples; g. Drying. If the chlorogenic acid extract is isolated and purified using this method, water-soluble impurities and liposoluble impurities can be well removed, that allows the impurity content of final products has fulfilled the requirements for medicine; meanwhile, the procedures of this method are simple, and organic solvents can be recycled for further use, with low cost. This method can be applied for the further isolation and purification of chlorogenic acid extract obtained by various ways, especially for the preparation of pharmaceutically acceptable chlorogenic acid.
