Description

  

  Verfahren zur Herstellung von     3,5-Dimethyl-oxazolidin-2,4-dion.       Das Hauptpatent betrifft ein Verfahren  zur Herstellung von     3,5,5-Trimethyl-oxazoli-          din-2,4-dion,    einer Substanz mit     zuckungs-    und  krampfhindernder Wirkung. Es wurde gefun  den, dass durch Einführung einer     Methyl-          gruppe    in der     3-Stellung    von     5-Methyl-oxazoli-          din-2,4-dion    ebenfalls eine Substanz mit dieser  Wirkung erhalten wird.  



  Gegenstand des vorliegenden Patentes ist  somit ein Verfahren zur Herstellung von     3,5-          Dimethyl-oxazolidin-2,4-dion,    welches dadurch  gekennzeichnet ist, dass man eine Substanz  der Formel  
EMI0001.0012     
    worin X einen bei der Reaktion sich abspal  tenden Rest bedeutet, mit einem     Methylie-          rungsmittel    behandelt.  



  <I>Beispiel:</I>  22 g     5-Methyl-oxazolidin-2,4-dion    werden  mit ungefähr 26,5 g     Dimethylsulfat    in einer  wässerigen Reaktionsmischung, enthaltend un  gefähr 9,2 g     Natriumhydroxyd,    behandelt.  Durch Abkühlung des Reaktionsgefässes und  tropfenweise Zugabe des     Dimethylsulfats    wird  dafür gesorgt, dass die Temperatur des Reak  tionsgutes nicht über 500 C ansteigt. Es wird    mit Äther extrahiert, der Äther in üblicher  Weise entfernt und der gewonnene Extrakt  destilliert.

   Das Endprodukt,     3,5-Dimethyl-oxa-          zolidin-2,4-dion,    wird in Form eines farblosen       Üls    mit einem Siedepunkt zwischen 75 und  830 C bei 4 mm Druck und 1380 C bei 50 mm  Druck erhalten.  



  Das     3,5-Dimethyl-oxazolidin-2,4-dion    kann  auch durch Umsetzung eines     Alkalimetallsal-          zes    des     5-lvlethyl-oxazolidin-2,4-dions    mit     Di-          methyIsulfat    oder einem     Methylhalogenid     oder durch Umsetzung des Silbersalzes des     5-          Methyl-oxazolidin-2,4-dions    mit einem     Methyl-          halogenid    erhalten werden.

   Als     Alkalimetall-          salz    wird vorzugsweise das     Natriumsalz    und  als     Methylhalogenid    das     Methyljodid    ver  wendet.



  Process for the preparation of 3,5-dimethyl-oxazolidine-2,4-dione. The main patent relates to a process for the production of 3,5,5-trimethyl-oxazolidine-2,4-dione, a substance with anti-twitch and cramp-preventing effects. It was found that the introduction of a methyl group in the 3-position of 5-methyl-oxazolin-2,4-dione also gives a substance with this effect.



  The present patent thus relates to a process for the preparation of 3,5-dimethyl-oxazolidine-2,4-dione, which is characterized in that a substance of the formula
EMI0001.0012
    where X is a radical which splits off during the reaction, treated with a methylation agent.



  <I> Example: </I> 22 g of 5-methyl-oxazolidine-2,4-dione are treated with approximately 26.5 g of dimethyl sulfate in an aqueous reaction mixture containing approximately 9.2 g of sodium hydroxide. By cooling the reaction vessel and adding the dimethyl sulfate drop by drop, it is ensured that the temperature of the reac tion material does not rise above 500 C. It is extracted with ether, the ether is removed in the usual way and the extract obtained is distilled.

   The end product, 3,5-dimethyl-oxazolidine-2,4-dione, is obtained in the form of a colorless oil with a boiling point between 75 and 830 ° C. at 4 mm pressure and 1380 ° C. at 50 mm pressure.



  The 3,5-dimethyl-oxazolidine-2,4-dione can also be obtained by reacting an alkali metal salt of 5-methyl-oxazolidine-2,4-dione with dimethyl sulfate or a methyl halide or by reacting the silver salt of 5-methyl -oxazolidine-2,4-dione can be obtained with a methyl halide.

   The sodium salt is preferably used as the alkali metal salt and the methyl iodide is used as the methyl halide.
