AUSTRALIA Patents Act 1990 COMPLETE SPECIFICATION INNOVATION PATENT A PROCESS FOR THE SYNTHESIS OF POLYHALOGENATED PERHALOALKYLANILINE COMPOUNDS The following statement is a full description of this invention, including the best method of performing it known to me.
TITLE A PROCESS FOR THE SYNTHESIS OF POLYHALOGENATED PERHALOALKYLANILINE COMPOUNDS FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a process for the synthesis of polyhalogenated perhaloalkylaniline compounds, particularly useful as intermediates for the synthesis of agrochemicals. Particularly, the present invention envisages a process for the manufacture of 2,6-dichloro-4-trifluoromethyl aniline. BACKGROUND AND THE PRIOR ART Trifluoromethylaniline derivatives and more particularly 4-trifluoromethyl aniline derivatives are valuable intermediates used for the synthesis of agrochemicals. Halogenation, and in particular chlorination of benzotrifluoride needs to be very selective in order to obtain desired polyhalogenated derivatives like p chlorobenzotrifluoride or 3,4-dichlorobenzotrifluoride. It is not only difficult but also time consuming. The synthesis of aniline derivatives are generally performed by the hydrogenation of aromatic nitro compounds. This technique has some 1 limitations restricting its usefulness. For example, hydrogenation is not appropriate in the presence of other substituents on the benzene ring, which are sensitive to hydrogenolysis, thus leading to side reactions and byproducts. Moreover, p-nitrobenzotrifluoride is very difficult to prepare since nitration of benzotrifluoride yields significant quantities of meta isomer. J.Org.Chem.44,4731(1970) discloses the preparation of p-amino bezotrifluoride by ammonolysis of 4-chlorobenzotrifluoride in the presence of copper (I) chloride and potassium fluoride. However, the reaction conditions are drastic, the conversions are low and the yields are very less for an industrial process. U. S. Patent No.3,484,487 granted to James S. Dix discloses the use of copper chloride and polar organic solvents such as N-methylpyrrolidone, dimethylacetamide and hexamethylphosphoramide for the amination of aryl halides. These solvents are not suitable for the amination of p chlorobenzotrifluoride since transamination occurs to a significant extent to form unwanted N,N'-dimethylaminobenzotrifluoride. Tetrahedron Letters, 1975,143 (T.Cohen and J.G.Tirpak) describes Ullman coupling and ammonolysis of activated aryl halides catalyzed by copper compounds. However no alkali metal or ammonium halide is used for ammonolysis. Ammonolysis of aryl iodides and bromides is described which are known to aminate more readily than aryl chlorides. 2 U.S.Patent no 2,194,925 and 2,194,926 discloses reaction of nitro-halo benzotrifluoride with gaseous ammonia in a solvent medium and in the presence of a copper salt to produce nitro-amino-benzotrifluorides. p-Aminobenzotrifluoride is also made by reacting trichloromethylphenyl isocyanate first with anhydrous hydrofluoric acid and then with water to obtain trifluoromethylaniline hydrochloride from which the free aniline is released by a base. Polyhalogenated trifluoromethylaniline derivatives are also made by ammonolysis of polyhalogenated benzotrifluoride in the presence of alkaline halides at a temperature ranging between 150'C to 350'C. WO 2000/35851 discloses the synthesis of 2,6-dichloro-4-trifluromethyl aniline, starting from 3,4,5-trichlorobenzotrifluoride in the presence of alkaline fluorides like lithium fluoride and anhydrous ammonia under pressure in N methylpyrrolidone at 250'C to give 97% conversion and 87% selectivity. The main drawback of the process is the synthesis of 3,4,5 trichlorobenzotrifluoride in high yield and purity. Chlorination of p chlorobenzotrifluoride gives mixture of 3,4,5-trichlorobenzotrifluoride in 72% GLC conversions, 3,4-dichlorobenzotrifluoride and tetrachloro benzotrifluoride. The process to get pure 3,4,5-trichlorobenzotrifluoride from this mixture by fractionation followed by crystallization is very tedious and industrially unviable. Moreover, in-spite of using very pure intermediates, substantial amount of an undesired isomer (3-amino-4,5 dichlorobenzotrifluoride) is obtained. 3 Another approach to generate 3,4,5-trichlrorobenzotrifluoride with high purity is to perform dinitration of p-chlorobenzotrifluoride with mixed acids containing oleum, which is very selective & then subjecting 3,5-dinitro-4 chlorobenzotrifluoride to denitrochlorination at 200-220'C in the presence of a catalyst. Even though the process produces 3,4,5 trichlorobenzotrifluoride in high yield & high purity, the process has various drawbacks, it generates large quantity of spent acid as a waste. Also dinitration reactions are very exothermic in nature & hence hazardous from an industrial point of view. Further denitrochlorination is done at a temperature greater than 200'C and nitrosyl chloride is obtained as a byproduct. U.S. Patent no.5,401,882 discloses synthesis of deactivated anilines by reacting 3,4-dichloro-benzotrifluoride with dimethylformamide in the presence of an alkali metal hydroxide at a temperature ranging between 150 and 250'C. Reaction of 3,4-dichlorobenzotrifluoride with dimethyl formamide in the presence of an alkali metal hydroxide at 180 to 210'C gave 4-trifluoromethyl-2-chloro-N,N'-dimethylaniline in 93% conversion with 93% selectivity. This is reacted with sulfuryl chloride under UV light to yield an isomer mixture of 2,6-dichloro-4-trifluoromethyl-N.N'-dimethyl aniline and 2,3-dichloro-5-trifluoromethyl-N,N'-dimethyl aniline. The isomer mixture is then treated with an excess of 50% aqueous alkali to yield of 2,6-dichloro-4-trifluoromethylaniline. The patent also discloses dealkylation of the above isomer mixture by passing chlorine at 10'C and illuminating by means of a UV light to give 92% conversion and 64% yield of 2,6-dichloro-4-trifluoromethylaniline. Dealkylation is also accomplished by illumination with UV light in carbon tetrachloride and then treating with 4 50% sodium hydroxide in water. The patent also discloses dealkylation of 2,6-dichloro-4-trifluoromethyl-N,N'-dimethylaniline by heating the content with 4-6 m/m of pyridine hydrochloride at 180-190'C with 76 m% yield of 2,6-dichloro-4-trifluoromethylaniline. A solution of 2,6-dichloro-4 trifluoromethyl-N,N'-dimethylaniline when treated with 47% aqueous hydrobromic acid as dealkylating agent gave 89% conversion and 55% yield of 2,6-dichloro-4-trifluoromethylaniline as disclosed. There is therefore felt a need for preparing polychlorinated perhaloalkyl aniline compounds, typically 2,6-dichloro-4-trifluoromethylaniline from easily available raw materials in a simple and economical manner at an industrial level, with high yield and purity. OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention is to develop a process for the manufacture of 2,6-dihalo-4-trifluoromethylaniline using commercially available raw materials.
