Description

  

  Verfahren zur Herstellung von     7.Dehydro.cholesterin       Es ist bekannt, dass man     7-Dehydro-chole-          sterin    aus     7-Brom-cholesterylestern    herstellen  kann, indem man auf die siedende Lösung  eines     7-Brom-eholesterylesters    in einem     iner-          ten    Lösungsmittel konzentrierte wässerige Lö  sungen von     Alkalihydroxyden    oder     Alkali-          carbonaten    einwirken lässt.  



  Gegenstand des vorliegenden Patentes ist  ein Verfahren zur Herstellung von     7-Dehydro-          eholesterin    durch     Bromwasserstoffabspaltung     aus einem     7-Brom-cholesterylester    und an  schliessende     Verseifung    des gebildeten     7-De-          hy        dro-cholesterylesters,    das dadurch gekenn  zeichnet ist, dass man auf eine Lösung des       7-Brom-cholesterylesters    in einem     inerten    was  serfreien Lösungsmittel zur     Bromwasserstoff-          abspaltung    gasförmiges Ammoniak einwirken  lässt.  



  Wie sich gezeigt hat, kann man das     7-De-          hydro-cholesterin    erfindungsgemäss vorteilhaft  dadurch erhalten, dass man auf die siedende  Lösung eines     7-Brom-cholesterylesters    in einem       inerten    wasserfreien Lösungsmittel gasförmi  ges Ammoniak so lange einwirken lässt, bis       allegBrom    als Bromwasserstoff abgespalten ist  und die fast farblose Lösung des gebilde  ten     7-Dehydro-cholesterinesters    anschliessend  durch     Verseifung    in das freie     7-Dehydro-cho-          lesterin    überführt. Man erhält auf diese Weise  Produkte, welche fast frei von farbigen Bei  mengungen sind.

   Diese Arbeitsweise zeichnet  sich durch grosse Einfachheit ans, indem  durch einfaches Durchleiten von Ammoniak    durch die Reaktionslösung sich augenblick  lich das     HBr    als     Ammoniumbromid    fest abzu  scheiden beginnt -und die     darüberstehende    Lö  sung des sich bildenden     7-Dehydro-cholesteryl-          esters    ohne     Beimengungen    als solche erhalten  bleibt.  



  <I>Beispiel</I>  20 g     7-Brom-cholesterylbenzoat    (oder Ace  tat oder ein anderer Ester) werden     in    einem  Rundkolben, versehen mit     Gaseinleitungsrohr,          Rückflusskühler        und        Rührer,    in 150     cm3          Yylol    gelöst und schon in der Kälte ein kräf  tiger     Ammoniakstrom    eingeblasen. Während  des     Einleitens    setzt man den Kolben in ein  auf 150  C vorgeheiztes     ölbad.    Nach 3 bis 4  Minuten beginnt sich das     unlösliche    Am  moniumbromid flockig auszuscheiden.

   Nach  3 Stunden ist die     Bromwasserstoffabspaltung     beendet. Man filtriert von     Ammoniumbromid     ab und erhält nach der Aufarbeitung     und          Verseifung    13,0 g eines beinahe weissen     Ste-          ringemisches,    welches 40,50/0.     7-Dehydro-cho-          lesterin        (spektroskopisch    gemessen) enthält.

    Die Gesamtausbeute an     7-Dehydro-cholesterin          beträgt        46,2%,        bezogen        auf        100%iges        7-De-          hydr        o-cholesterylbenzoat.  



  Process for the preparation of 7.Dehydro.cholesterol It is known that 7-dehydrocholesterol can be prepared from 7-bromo-cholesteryl esters by concentrating on the boiling solution of a 7-bromo-eholesteryl ester in an inert solvent allows aqueous solutions of alkali hydroxides or alkali carbonates to act.



  The present patent relates to a process for the production of 7-dehydro-eholesterol by splitting off hydrogen bromide from a 7-bromo-cholesteryl ester and then saponifying the 7-dehydro-cholesteryl ester formed, which is characterized in that it is applied to a solution of the 7-bromo-cholesteryl ester in an inert water-free solvent to split off hydrogen bromide allows gaseous ammonia to act.



  As has been shown, the 7-dehydro-cholesterol can advantageously be obtained according to the invention by allowing gaseous ammonia to act on the boiling solution of a 7-bromo-cholesteryl ester in an inert anhydrous solvent until all the bromine is split off as hydrogen bromide and the almost colorless solution of the 7-dehydro-cholesterol ester formed is then converted into the free 7-dehydro-cholesterol by saponification. In this way, products are obtained which are almost free of colored additions.

   This procedure is characterized by great simplicity, in that by simply passing ammonia through the reaction solution, the HBr begins to solidly separate out as ammonium bromide - and the overlying solution of the 7-dehydrocholesteryl ester that forms is obtained as such without admixtures remains.



  <I> Example </I> 20 g of 7-bromo-cholesteryl benzoate (or acetate or another ester) are dissolved in 150 cm3 of yylene in a round-bottomed flask equipped with a gas inlet tube, reflux condenser and stirrer and a strong drink even in the cold Stream of ammonia blown in. During the introduction, the flask is placed in an oil bath preheated to 150.degree. After 3 to 4 minutes, the insoluble ammonium bromide begins to separate out flaky.

   The elimination of hydrogen bromide is complete after 3 hours. Ammonium bromide is filtered off and, after work-up and saponification, 13.0 g of an almost white stone mixture, which is 40.50 / 0. Contains 7-dehydro-cholesterol (measured spectroscopically).

    The overall yield of 7-dehydro-cholesterol is 46.2%, based on 100% 7-dehydro-cholesteryl benzoate.
