Definitions
- the present invention relates to a ner process for the preparation of 3,6-dimethyl-5,6,7,7a-tetiahydro-4H-benzofuran-2-one ("mint lactone") from hydroxymenthofurolactone.
- Mint lactone is an important ingredient of the peppermint plant and therefore essential for the production of nature-identical mint flavors.
- Mintlactone (II) is usually synthesized from hydroxymenthofurolactone (I) by reaction with the reducing agent sodium borohydride.
- the ner driving in the reduction stage is due to the high price of the
- Reducing agent sodium boranate is uneconomical and due to the hydrogen generated in the process, appropriate safety measures must be taken. For this reason, the dosage of the reducing agent is extended over a wide period of 7 hours in order to keep the elemental hydrogen content in the exhaust air as low as possible. This inevitably takes a long time
- ner driving is the hydrogenation of dehydromenthofurolactone (ILI), which is carried out on a laboratory scale in the presence of Platinum dioxide as a catalyst in the Journal of. Agric. Biol. Chem. 44 (7), 1535 (1980).
- the dehydromenthofurolactone (HI) is produced by acid-catalyzed elimination of water from the hydroxymenthofurolactone (I).
- the alkali-aqueous solution obtained from the hydrogenation is acidified using mineral acids and with a water-immiscible organic solvent, e.g. Toluene extracted.
- a water-immiscible organic solvent e.g. Toluene extracted.
- the added water is removed azeotropically by adding catalytic amounts of a mineral acid to this organic phase. For this reason, those water-immiscible organic solvents are preferred which simultaneously form an azeotrope with water.
- the hydroxymenthofurolactone is dissolved in an aqueous alkali.
- aqueous bases aqueous alkali hydroxide solutions such as lithium, sodium or potassium hydroxide.
- the concentration of the aqueous alkali is generally in the concentration range from 1 to 80% by weight, preferably in the range from 2 to 20% by weight.
- concentration of the hydroxymenthofurolactone in the aqueous alkali can vary within wide limits. Concentrations of 10 to 60, preferably 20 to 50
- Catalysts suitable for the hydrogenation of hydroxymenthofurolactone (I) include the customary hydrogenation catalysts - that is, noble metals such as platinum, palladium, rhodium, other transition metals such as molybdenum, tungsten, chromium, iron, cobalt, nickel, in each case individually or in a mixture.
- the hydrogenation catalyst is preferably selected from platinum, palladium and their compounds. It can be used in the form of the metals, for example finely divided as platinum black or palladium black, or in the form of compounds of these metals, for example as a metal salt or metal complex. All forms of use of the catalyst can also be applied to supports.
- Preferred catalysts include, for example, platinum compounds PtO 2 , H 2 PtCl 6 , PtCl 2 , PtCl 4 , PtBr 2 , PtJ 2 , Pt (NH 3 ) NO 2 ) 2 , Pt (NH 3 ) 4 Cl 2 , Pt (H 2 NCH 2 CH 2 CH 2 ) 2 Cl 2 , and the palladium compounds PdO, PdSO 4 , PdBr 2 , PdCl 2 , Pd (CH 3 CO 2 ) 2 Pd (NH 3 ) 4 (NO 3 ) 2 , Pd- ( II) acetylacetonate and Pd- ( ⁇ ) trifluoroacetate.
- All industrially customary catalyst supports are suitable as catalyst supports, e.g. those based on coal, element oxides, element carbides or element salts in various application forms.
- element oxide catalyst supports are silicon dioxide (natural or synthetic silicas, quartz), aluminum oxide, clays, natural and synthetic aluminosilicates (zeolites), titanium dioxide (rutile, anatase), zirconium oxide or zinc oxide.
- Preferred element carbides and salts include silicon carbide, aluminum phosphate, barium sulfate, calcium carbonate and others. They can be used both in the sense of chemically uniform pure substances and in a mixture. According to the invention, both lumpy and powdery materials are suitable as catalyst supports.
- supported catalysts is preferred, particularly preferred is the use of supported platinum and palladium, e.g. Coal.
- the loading of the support with catalyst is preferably 0.1 to 15, in particular 5 to 10% by weight, based on the total of support and catalyst, calculated as metal.
- the catalyst is used in amounts of 0.001 to 5, preferably 0.01 to 1,% by weight, calculated as the metal and based on hydroxymenthofurolactone (I).
- the hydrogenation of Hydroxymenmofurolacton (I) can be carried out with hydrogen under a pressure of 1 to 100, preferably 10 to 20 bar and at temperatures of 5 to 200, preferably 20-40 ° C.
- the acid-catalyzed elimination of water by the process according to the invention is generally carried out in the presence of mineral acids.
- an extraction from the aqueous hydrogenation solution is carried out with a water-immiscible solvent which simultaneously forms an azeotrope with water, e.g. Toluene or xylene.
- a pH of about 1 is preferably set in this extraction.
- This includes mineral acids such as Hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid or phosphoric acid are suitable.
- Mint lactone is obtained in high purity by this process.
- the pH of the filtrate is increased by adding 570 g of 30% sulfuric acid. changed from 13 to 1.
- the resulting oil phase is extracted with 600 g of toluene. After phase separation with 5g sulfuric acid, conc. added and boiled to reflux for 3 hours on a water separator, separating about 60 g of water. After cooling to RT, the org. Phase washed again with 200 g of water and then distilled on a 15 cm Vigreux column. 334 g of mint lactone with a purity of 99% are obtained. The yield over both stages is 91% of theory.
