Description

  

  Procédé de préparation<B>du</B> chlorhydrate de     2-méthyl-6-chlorométhyl-6-aminopyrimidine.       La présente     invention    a pour objet la pré  paration avec un bon rendement et sous une  pression pratiquement non supérieure à la  pression atmosphérique du     chlorhydrate    de       2-méthyl-5=chlorométhyl-6    -     aminopyrimidine.     



  Il est connu qu'on ne peut préparer     ce     chlorhydrate par réaction entre une     2-méthyl-          5-alcoxyméthyl-6-aminopyrimidine    et l'acide  chlorhydrique en     présence    d'acide acétique  glacial qu'à des pressions supérieures à la  pression atmosphérique et à des     températures     au-dessus de 100  C.

      On a trouvé qu'il est possible de préparer  le chlorhydrate de     2-méthyl-5-chlorométhyl-          6-aminopyrimidine,    ayant un point de fusion  de<B>213</B> à 214 " C, en faisant réagir une     2-          méthyl    - 5 -     alcoxyméthyl    - 6     -aminopyrimidine     avec l'acide chlorhydrique en présence d'un  alcool aliphatique, de préférence d'un alcool  n'ayant pas plus de 10 atomes de carbone. La  réaction s'effectue à la pression atmosphé  rique.

   Cette réaction peut s'exprimer par la  formule suivante:  
EMI0001.0017     
    dans laquelle R représente un groupe     alcoxy.     Le produit obtenu par le procédé selon       l'invention    sert à différents usages, par  exemple comme produit     intermédiaire    pour  la fabrication de la vitamine     Bi.    Cette der-         nière    peut être obtenue en chauffant le       chlorhydrate    de     2-méthyl-5-chlorométhyl-6-          aminopyrimidin    e avec du 4 -     méthyl    - 5     -          hydroxyéthylthiazol    pendant environ 5 mi  nutes .à 115  <RTI  

   ID="0001.0029">        C.      Les exemples suivants. donnés à titre nul  lement limitatifs, illustrent le procédé de fa  brication selon l'invention.  



  <I>Exemple 1:</I>  7.0 gr de     2-méthyl-5-éthoxyniéthyl-6-          aminopyrimidine    sont dissous dans 100 cm'  de     butanol    et la solution est chauffée au     bain-          marie    pendant. environ 6 heures tout en fai  sant passer au travers un     courant    d'acide  chlorhydrique sec. Le chlorhydrate de     ?-          méthyl    - 5 -     chlorométhyl    - 6 -     aminopyrimidine     cristallise peu à. peu. On refroidit. alors la,       masse,    on ajoute un à deux volumes d'éther  et filtre.

   On lave les cristaux à l'éther et les       sèche    à     .10-50      C environ. Rendement brut:  environ 10     -r,    soit 86     %    de la théorie.  



       Exemple   <I>2:</I>  On dissout 10 gr de     2-méthyl-5-éthoxy-          méthyl-6-aminopyrimidine    dans 50 cm'' de       butanol    et chauffe la solution au bain-marie  pendant environ 6 heures en faisant passer  dans la solution un courant d'acide chlorhy  drique sec. On filtre la masse et sèche le  chlorhydrate de     2-méthyl-5-chlorométhyl-6-          aminopy        rimidine    à 40-50' C environ. Le  rendement brut est de 11 gr, soit 95 % de la  théorie.  



  <I>Exemple 3:</I>  On procède comme pour l'exemple 1 en  remplaçant le     butanol    par du méthanol. Le  rendement est légèrement inférieur à celui de  l'exemple 1.  



  La réaction peut être conduite à tempé  rature ordinaire ou à température élevée. Une  température élevée, mais inférieure à 100 " C,  est préférable à cause du meilleur rendement  en produit et de la     moindre        durée    de la       réaction.     



  Le groupe     éthoxy    de la matière première  peut être remplacé par d'autres groupes     alcoxy       et on peut remplacer l'acide chlorhydrique  gazeux par de l'acide chlorhydrique en solu  tion concentrée. Lorsqu'on emploie de l'acide  chlorhydrique concentré, il faut éviter que le  groupe     amino    ne soit remplacé par un groupe       hydroxy.    On peut prévenir cette substitution  de différentes façons, par exemple en limitant  la durée du chauffage du mélange de réaction  a Mie demi-heure.



  A process for the preparation of <B> </B> 2-methyl-6-chloromethyl-6-aminopyrimidine hydrochloride. The object of the present invention is the preparation with a good yield and at a pressure substantially not higher than atmospheric pressure of 2-methyl-5 = chloromethyl-6-aminopyrimidine hydrochloride.



  It is known that this hydrochloride can be prepared by reaction between a 2-methyl-5-alkoxymethyl-6-aminopyrimidine and hydrochloric acid in the presence of glacial acetic acid only at pressures above atmospheric pressure and at temperatures above 100 C.

      It has been found that it is possible to prepare 2-methyl-5-chloromethyl-6-aminopyrimidine hydrochloride, having a melting point of <B> 213 </B> at 214 ° C, by reacting a 2- methyl - 5 - alkoxymethyl - 6 -aminopyrimidine with hydrochloric acid in the presence of an aliphatic alcohol, preferably an alcohol having not more than 10 carbon atoms The reaction is carried out at atmospheric pressure.

   This reaction can be expressed by the following formula:
EMI0001.0017
    in which R represents an alkoxy group. The product obtained by the process according to the invention is used for various uses, for example as an intermediate product for the manufacture of vitamin Bi. The latter can be obtained by heating 2-methyl-5-chloromethyl-6-aminopyrimidin hydrochloride with 4 - methyl - 5 - hydroxyethylthiazol for about 5 minutes to 115 <RTI.

   ID = "0001.0029"> C. The following examples. given in no way limiting, illustrate the manufacturing process according to the invention.



  <I> Example 1: </I> 7.0 g of 2-methyl-5-ethoxyniethyl-6-aminopyrimidine are dissolved in 100 cm 3 of butanol and the solution is heated in a water bath for. approximately 6 hours while passing through a stream of dry hydrochloric acid. The hydrochloride of? - methyl - 5 - chloromethyl - 6 - aminopyrimidine crystallizes little by little. little. We cool down. then the mass, one to two volumes of ether is added and filtered.

   The crystals are washed with ether and dried at approximately 10-50 C. Gross yield: about 10 -r, or 86% of theory.



       Example <I> 2: </I> 10 g of 2-methyl-5-ethoxy-methyl-6-aminopyrimidine are dissolved in 50 cm '' of butanol and the solution is heated in a water bath for about 6 hours while passing a stream of dry hydrochloric acid in the solution. The mass is filtered and 2-methyl-5-chloromethyl-6-aminopy rimidine hydrochloride is dried at about 40-50 ° C. The gross yield is 11 gr, or 95% of theory.



  <I> Example 3: </I> The procedure is as for Example 1, replacing the butanol with methanol. The yield is slightly lower than that of Example 1.



  The reaction can be carried out at room temperature or at elevated temperature. A high temperature, but less than 100 ° C, is preferable because of the better product yield and shorter reaction time.



  The ethoxy group of the raw material can be replaced by other alkoxy groups, and the gaseous hydrochloric acid can be replaced by hydrochloric acid in concentrated solution. When using concentrated hydrochloric acid, care must be taken to prevent the amino group from being replaced by a hydroxy group. This substitution can be prevented in various ways, for example by limiting the heating time of the reaction mixture to half an hour.
