process of manufacturing sulfoxides Abstract of the Disclosure This invention relates to a process for manu-facturing sulfoxide compounds using thiocarbmate compounds as intermediates. More specifically, this invention relates to a process for manufacturing sulfoxide compounds by the reaction of a thio-carbamate and performic acid at reduced temperatures The performic acid is formed in situ by reacting hydrogen peroxide with formic acid. The end product is useful as herbicides,

Description

llS514S
Detailed Description of the Invention In the practice of the present invention, sulfoxide com-pounds are manufactured having the following generic formula:

R-l-R-N ~ 1 R~

wherein R can be selected from lower alkyl having 1-6 carbon atoms, phenyl, benzyl, substituted phenyl, substituted benzyl wherein the S substituents can be selected from lower alkyl having 1-4 carbon atoms, thioalkyl, alkoxy, halogen, haloalkyl, nitro and cyano; Rl and R2 can be the same or different and can be selected from lower alkyl, cycloalkyl, the alkyl radicals having 1-10 carbon atoms, phenyl, benzyl, substituted phenyl and benzyl wherein said sub-stituents can be selected from lower alkyl having 1-4 carbon atoms, thioalkyl, alkoxy, halogen, haloalkyl, nitro and cyano;
Rl and ~ taken together can form an alkyl ring structure having
2-10 carbon atoms, the alkyl ring structure can be optionally sub-stituted with alkyl or haloalkyl having 1-4 carbon atoms or halo-gen, a heterocyclic ring that can optionally be substituted with lower alkyl radicals.

The compounds are manufactured by reacting a conventional thiocarbamate compound with performic acid. The thiocarbamate compound has the following formula:

R_S_R_N~

wherein R, Rl and R2 have been defined above.

It is preferred to form the performic acid in situ by reacting hydrogen peroxide with formic acid. Thus, the thio-carbamate is dissolved in sufficient fonmic acid so that after the - 2 - ~

`- llS5145 addition of the peroxide only one phase exists. Then, hydrogen peroxide is added slowly. Performic acid is formed and immediately reacts with the thiocarbamate to form the end pro-duct.

The reaction scheme is as follows:

(1) H22 + H-C-OH >H-C-O-OH + H20 + /~

(2) H-C-O-OH + R-S-~C-N ~ Rl~ R-~-C-N 1 + H-9C-oH

Since the reaction is exothermic, it is necessary to remove heat so that the temperature is maintained at between 0C.
and 60C., preferably between 15C. and 40C. In the event that the temperature exceeds 60C., undesirable by-products, such as the sulfone derivative, are formed. If desired, an ion exchange resin can be used as a catalyst.

In order to illustrate the merits of the present inven-tion, the following examples are provided:

Example 1 C2H5~ N~'n 3 7 ~n-C3H7 A mixture was formed in a reaction vessel containing 50 ml. of formic acid, 34 ml. of S-ethyl,N-di-n-propylthiocar-bamate and 2 gr. of treated amberlite ion exchange resin catalyst.
This solution was cooled to 15C. Then, 38-1/2 mls. of 17~rto hydrogen peroxide were added. The temperature was allowed to go to 55C. The reaction mass was stripped to yield 40 g. of pro-duct of 94% purity.

Example 2 ~ ~ -C3H7 n-C3H7-S-C-N~

A solution was formed containing 203 g. (215 ml.) of S-n-propyl-N,N-di-n-propylthiocarbamate and 175 ml. of formic acid. The reaction mass was cooled to 15C. and then 105 ml. of a 35% solution of hydrogen peroxide was added over a period of 10 minutes. Then, the reaction mass was allowed to warm to 25C.
and held there for one hour. Thereafter, the reaction mass was cooled to 15C., then neutralized with sodium hydroxide. The reaction mass was transferred to a separation funnel, extracted with methylene chloride and stripped to provide 197 g. of pro-duct.

Example 3 C H Y ~ ~

A solution was formed containing 175 ml. of formic acid and 192 g. (technical grade) of S-ethyl hexahydro~lH-azepine-l-carbothioate. Thereafter, 100 ml. of a 35% solution of hydrogen peroxide was added over a period of ten minutes. The temperature r~se to 45C. and held there for the rest of the run (2 hours) and then was stripped under vacuum. The remaining solution was dis-solved in 100 ml. of methylene chloride and then neutralized with 33% sodium hydroxide. The methylene chloride was stripped to yield 188 g. of product assaying 937O.

A solution was formed containing 217 g. of g-ethyl-N,N-di~sobutylthiocarbamate in 175 ml. of formic acid. Thereafter, 103 ml. of a 35% solution of hydrogen peroxide was added. The temperature was allowed to raise to 45C. and held there for 3 hours. m e end product was worked up in the same manner as set forth in Example 3 except that the product was dissolved in benzene before neutralization instead of methylene chloride.
~-~ After seripping the product weighed 219 grams and assayed at 92.370.

~- Example 5 n-C3H7-~-8-N ~ 2)3 3 A solution was formed containing 125 ml. of formic acid ~`;10 and 101-1/2 g. of S-propyl-N-n-butyl-N-ethylthiocarbamate and was cooled to i5C. Thereafter, 80 ml. of 21% solution of hydrogen peroxide was added over a period of 30 minutes. The reaction product was worked up in a manner as set forth in Example 4 to yield 105 g. of product.

ExamPle 6 ~ CH2-~-C-N~i 3 7 A solution was fonmed containing 15 ml. of formic acid and 25.1 g. of S-benzyl-N,N-diisopropylthiocarbamate. This solu-tion was cooled to 20C. Thereafter, 10 ml. of 35% solution of , 1155~45 hydrogen peroxide were added over a period of 30 minutes. The reaction mass was worked up in a similar manner as set forth in Example 5 to yield 19.8 g. of product.
