Description
Verfahren zur Herstellung von Methylumbelliferon. Es ist bekannt, 4-Methyl-cumarine, insbe sondere im Benzolkern Oxy gruppen enthal tende 4-Methyl-cumarine, durch Einwirkung von Acetessigester auf ein- oder mehrwertige Phenole in Gegenwart wasserentziehender Mit tel zu gewinnen.
Zum Beispiel entsteht Me- thylumbelliferon, das ist 7-Oxy -4-methyl-cu- marin, aus Resorcin und Acetessigester durch Einwirkung von konzentrierter Schwefelsäure. Um bei diesem Verfahren aber einigermassen zufriedenstellende Ausbeuten zu erzielen, darf die Temperatur während der Umsetzung 0 nicht überschreiten, und ausserdem muss ein grosser Überschuss an Schwefelsäure ange- @vandt werden.
Das dabei entstehende rohe Methylumbelliferon muss dann noch, beispiels weise durch Umkristallisieren, gereinigt wer den.
Es wurde nun gefunden, dass man Methy- lumbelliferon in sehr vorteilhafter Weise her stellen kann, wenn man erfindungsgemäss mo- lare Mengen von Resorcin und Diketen zu nächst in Gegenwart einer kleinen Menge eines Katalysators zu dem Monoacetoacetat des Re- sorcins umsetzt und dann mittels eines Kon densationsmittels unter Wasserabspaltung den Ringschluss bewirkt.
Die Bildung des Mono- acetoacetats des Resorcins erfolgt zweckmässig durch gemeinsames Erhitzen von Resorcin und Diketen in Gegenwart saurer oder basischer Katalysatoren. Als Kondensationsmittel für den Ringschluss eignen sich zum Beispiel Schwefelsäure, Zinkchlorid, Phosphorsäure oder andere ähnlich wirkende Kondensations mittel.
Das erfindungsgemässe Verfahren, wel ches statt des Acetessigesters das wohlfeilere Diketen verwendet, benötigt ausserdem gerin gere Mengen an Kondensationsmittel und lie fert bessere Ausbeuten an reinerem Methy- lumbelliferon als das bekannte Verfahren.
Für die Bildung des Resorcin-monoaceto- a.cetats verwendet man als basische Katalysato ren vorteilhaft Pyridin oder anderer Pyridin- basen, Triäthylamin, Natriumacetat, Dimethyl- anilin u. a. oder als saure Katalysatoren Ben- zolsulfonsäure, konzentrierter Schwefelsäure o. a.
Die Veresterung geschieht am besten derart, dass man zu geschmolzenem Resorcin, welches den Katalysator enthält, Diketen in langsamem Strahl zulaufen lässt und die Masse so lange bei der Schmelztemperatur des Resor- cins hält, bis alles Diketen umgesetzt ist. Der rohe, noch warme Monoacetessigester des Re- sorcins kann nun ohne weitere Reinigung un mittelbar weiter verarbeitet werden.
Für den Ringschluss verwendet man als wasserentzie hendes Mittel mit gutem Erfolg konzentrierte Schwefelsäure, Schwefelsäure von 60 B6, was serfreies Zinkchlorid oder konzentrierte Phos phorsäure. Es ist dabei nicht notwendig, bei dieser Stufe wie im Fall der Synthese mit Acetessigester.die Temperatur unter 0 zu hal ten; man kann den geschmolzenen rohen Ester bei Raumtemperatur oder etwas erhöhter Temperatur in die Kondensationsmittel ein laufen lassen.
Die Umsetzung lässt sich wie folgt darstellen
EMI0002.0001
Das so erhaltene 1Alethylumbelliferon liegt bereits nach zum Beispiel in üblicher Weise erfolgter Entfernung des Kondensationsmit tels in für viele Zwecke ausreichend reiner Form vor. Methylumbelliferon ist als Zwi schenprodukt zum Beispiel bei der Herstellung von Farbstoffen und Schädlingsbekämpfungs mitteln von Bedeutung.
Beispiel <I>1:</I> 110 Gewiehtsteile technisches Resorein und 0,5 Gewiehtsteile Pyridin werden bei etwa 105 bis 110 geschmolzen. In diese Mischung lässt man unter Aufrechterhalten einer Tempera tur von etwa<B>100</B> bis 110 81 Gewiehtsteile rei nes Diketen (bzw. die 81 Gewichtsteilen rei nem Diketen entsprechende Menge an teehni- sehem Diketen) langsam einlaufen.
Dann hält man das Gemisch noch so lange auf 100 bis 110 , bis kein Geruch nach Diketen mehr wahr- iiehmbar ist. Das rohe, auf etwa 40 bis 50 ab gekühlte dickflüssige Monoaeetoaeeta.t des Re- sorcins lässt man dann in 630 Gewichtsteile 78%iger Schwefelsäure (60 B6) einlaufen. Die Temperatur der Schwefelsäure soll etwa 20 bis 30 betragen.
Die Mischung wird dann noch mehrere Stunden bei dieser Temperatur gerührt und darauf auf die dreifache Menge Isis gegossen. Es wird noch kurze Zeit nach gerührt und das ausgefallene llethylumbelli- feron abgesaugt, säurefrei gewaschen und bei <B>1.10</B> bis 120 getrocknet. Eihalten 170 Ge- wielitsteile hellgraues Methylumbelliferon vom Fp. 180 bis 181 (unkorr.), entsprechend 96010 der Theorie.
Beispiel 110 g Resorcin und 0,5 g Triäthylamin wer den wie im Beispiel 1 mit Diketen verestert und dann bei 0 in eine Mischung von 300 em3 konzentrierter Phosphorsäure und 30 cm3 Wasser einlaufen lassen. Nach dem Stehen über Nacht wird auf Eis gegossen.
Man erhält etwa 150 g, entsprechend 85 % der Theorie, an Methylumbelliferon.
Process for the production of methylumbelliferone. It is known that 4-methyl-coumarins, in particular special 4-methyl-coumarins contained in the benzene nucleus oxy groups, can be obtained by the action of acetoacetic ester on mono- or polyhydric phenols in the presence of dehydrating agents.
For example, methylumbelliferone, which is 7-oxy -4-methyl-cu- marine, is produced from resorcinol and acetoacetic ester through the action of concentrated sulfuric acid. In order to achieve somewhat satisfactory yields in this process, however, the temperature must not exceed 0 during the reaction, and in addition a large excess of sulfuric acid must be used.
The resulting crude methylumbelliferone then has to be purified, for example by recrystallization.
It has now been found that methylumbelliferone can be produced in a very advantageous manner if, according to the invention, molar amounts of resorcinol and diketene are first converted to the monoacetoacetate of resorcinol in the presence of a small amount of a catalyst and then by means of a Condensation agent causes the ring closure with elimination of water.
The formation of the monoacetoacetate of resorcinol is expediently carried out by joint heating of resorcinol and diketene in the presence of acidic or basic catalysts. Suitable condensation agents for the ring closure are, for example, sulfuric acid, zinc chloride, phosphoric acid or other similarly acting condensation agents.
The process according to the invention, which uses the cheaper diketene instead of the acetoacetic ester, also requires smaller amounts of condensing agent and delivers better yields of purer methyl lumbelliferone than the known process.
For the formation of resorcinol monoaceto a.cetats is used as basic catalysts advantageously pyridine or other pyridine bases, triethylamine, sodium acetate, dimethyl aniline u. a. or as acidic catalysts benzene sulfonic acid, concentrated sulfuric acid or the like.
The esterification is best done in such a way that diketene is added to molten resorcinol, which contains the catalyst, in a slow stream and the mass is kept at the melting temperature of the resorcinol until all of the diketene has been converted. The raw, still warm monoacetoacetic ester of the resorbin can now be processed further without further purification.
For the ring closure, concentrated sulfuric acid, sulfuric acid of 60 B6, which is serfreies zinc chloride or concentrated phosphoric acid, is used as a dehydrating agent with good success. It is not necessary, as in the case of the synthesis with acetoacetic ester, to keep the temperature below 0 at this stage; you can run the molten crude ester at room temperature or slightly elevated temperature in the condensing agent.
The implementation can be illustrated as follows
EMI0002.0001
The 1-alethylumbelliferone obtained in this way is already in a sufficiently pure form for many purposes after, for example, the removal of the condensation agent in the usual manner. Methylumbelliferone is important as an intermediate product, for example in the manufacture of dyes and pest control agents.
Example <I> 1: </I> 110 parts by weight of technical resorein and 0.5 parts by weight of pyridine are melted at around 105 to 110. 81 parts by weight of pure diketene (or the amount of teehnic diketene corresponding to 81 parts by weight of pure diketene) is slowly run into this mixture while maintaining a temperature of about 100 to 110.
Then the mixture is kept at 100 to 110 until the diketene smell is no longer perceptible. The crude, viscous monoaeetoaeeta.t of the resorcinol, cooled to about 40 to 50, is then run into 630 parts by weight of 78% strength sulfuric acid (60 B6). The temperature of the sulfuric acid should be around 20 to 30.
The mixture is then stirred for several hours at this temperature and then poured onto three times the amount of Isis. Stirring is continued for a short time and the precipitated methyl umbelliferone is filtered off with suction, washed free of acid and dried at from 1.10 to 120. Contains 170 parts by weight of light gray methylumbelliferone with a melting point of 180 to 181 (uncorr.), Corresponding to 96010 of theory.
Example 110 g of resorcinol and 0.5 g of triethylamine who esterified with diketene as in Example 1 and then run at 0 into a mixture of 300 cm3 of concentrated phosphoric acid and 30 cm3 of water. After standing overnight, it is poured onto ice.
About 150 g, corresponding to 85% of theory, of methylumbelliferone are obtained.
