Abstract

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE
The present invention provides N-chloro-carbonyl-amino carboxylic esters having the general formula

Description

The present invention relates to N-chloro-carbonyl-amino carboxylic esters which are useful for producing active substances of the hydantoin type or of the urea type,.
particularly for plant protective agents.
The esters of the present invention have the general formula (R / C - R )1 5 1 4 CH - COOR lI) (R - C \ R ~ ~ CH2)m N

O ~ \Cl whe.rein X = -CH2- or -S-, Rl represents a straight-chain or branched alkyl radical containing up to 4 carbon atoms, R , R
and R4, independently of each other, each represents hydrogen or a methyl radical, R5 represents hydrogen, an alkyl radical, which is either unsubstituted or substituted by substituents stable against phosgene, or an aromatic or heteroaromatic radi-cal, which is either unsu~stituted or substituted by substi-tuents stable against phosgene, or R4 and R5 together repre-sent an alkylene radical containing 4 to 5 carbon atoms and 1, m and n, independently of each other, each represents 0, 1 or 2 with the stipulation that the sum of 1, m and n is mini-mally 1 and maxirnally 3 and for the case that 1 = 2, R2 and R can only represent hydrogen.
The esters of formula I may be produced in accordance with the present invention by a process in which an amino-carboxylic ester having the general formula (R3 - C R2) X CH - COOR

(R5 - C ~ R ) ~ CH2~m (II) N

wherein X, R , R , R , R , R , 1, m and n have the meanings defined he.reinbeforej or its hydrohalide is reacted in a solvent, which is inert with respect to phosgene, at a tempera-ture between -30 to +100C with 1 to 10 times the molar amount of phosgene.
The N-chloro-carbonyl-amino carboxylic esters having the general formula (I) can be further processed in a simple manner to conventional active substances. Thus, for example, with primary amines they form active substances of the hydan-1~ toin type and with secondary amines they form active substancesof the urea type~
Therefore, the present invention also provides for the use of the N-chloro-carbo~yl-amino carboxylic esters hav-iny the genPral formula (I~ for producing active substances, particularly plant protective agents.
Amongst the N-chloro-carbonyl-amino carboxylic esters having the formula (I) those for which n=1 and the radical R
has one of the following meanings are particularly important:
hydrogen; unsubstituted, straight-chain or branched alkyl radi-cal, particularly containiny 1 to 16 carbon atoms, such asmethyi, ethyl, n-propyl, i-propyl, n~butyl, n-pentyl, n-hexyl, n-heptyl, n-octyl, n-nonyl, n-decyl, n-hendecyl, n-tridecyl, n-pentadecyl or n-hexadecyl; alkyl radical substituted with substituents stable a~ainst pnosgene, such as phenyl methyl, (l'-phenyl)ethyl, (2'-methyl-mercapto)-ethyl or (2'-ethyl-mercapto~-ethyl; unsubstituted aromatic or heteroaromatic radical, such as phenyl, naphthyl, 2'--furyl, 2'-thienyl or 3'-thien~l; aromatic or heteroaromatic radical substituted with substituents stable against phosyene such as 2'-fluoro phenyl, 3'-fluoro phenyl, 4'~fluoro phenyl~ 2'-chloro phenyl, 3'-chloro phenyl, 4'--chloro phenyl, 3',4'-dichloro pheny.l, 3',5'-dichloro phenyl, 2',4'-dichloro phenyl, 2',6'-dichloro phenyl, 2',5'-dichloro phenyl, 2'-nitro-phenyl, 3'-nitro phenyl, ~'-nitro-phenyl, 2'-methoxy phenyl, 3'-methoxy phenyl, 4'-methoxy phenyl, 4'-ethoxy phenyl, 4'-propoxy phenyl, 4'-bu~oxy phenyl, 3',9'-dimethoxy phenyl, piperonyl-(31,~'-methylene-dioxo-phenyl), 3'-phenoxy phenyl, 4'-phenoxy phenyl, 2'-methyl phenyl, 3'-methyl phenyl, 4'-methyl phenyl, 4'-tert.-butyl phenyl, 4'-n-pentyl phenyl, 2'-trifluoro-methyl phenyl, 3'-triCluoro-methyl phenyl, 4'-trifluoro-methyl phenyl, 5'-chloro-2'-thienyl, 57-bromo-2'-thienyl, 4'-bromo-2'-thienyl, 5'-ni-tro-2'-thienyl or 5'-nitro-2'-furyl.
The reaction of the amino carboxylic es~er having the general formula (II) with phosgene is preferably carried out at a temperature between -20 and ~80C.
Examples of solvents which are inert with respect to phosgene are hydrocarbons such as hexane or toluene; chloro hydrocarbons such as methylene chloride, chloroform or 1,2-dichloro ethane; ethers such as methyl-tert.-butyl ether or dioxane; or carboxylic esters such as acetic ethyl ester, acetic propyl ester or propionic methyl ester.
0 If the amino carboxylic esters having the general formula (II) have an asymmetry centre, they can be applied as pure enantiomers or as racemaies.
Under the reaction conditions defined the optical configuration is maintained in the reaction with ~he phosgene.
The amino carboxylic esters having the general for-mula (II) can be produced by means of conventional esterifica-tion methods from the free amino carboxylic acids on which they are based. Some of the free amino carboxylic acids are naturally occurring amino carboxylic acids, such as azetidine carboxylic acid or prolinej and some are produced cornmercially, such as pipecolinic acid or isonipecotine acid~ Insofar as synthetic amino carboxylic acids are concerned -they can be ~- 3 produced from naturally occurring or commercial amino carbox-ylic acids, amino carboxylic acid derivatives or first stages of amino carboxylic acid by simple reactions, for example, by condensation o~ suitable non-cyclic amino carboxylic acids with suitable aldehydes or ketones.
The reaction of the amino carboxylic esters having the general formula (II~ with phosgene is suitably so carried out that the phosgene is dissolved in the solvent selected and the amino carboxylic ester is then added. The amino car-boxylic esters can be used in the pure form or in the form of the crude reaction products from the dehydrohalogenation of the corresponding hydrohalides with ammonia.
As an alternative, the hydrohalides of the amino carboxylic esters having the general formula (II) can also be used directl~. In this case it is expedient to dissolve or suspend the hydrohalide in the solvent selected and to add the phosgene to the $olution or suspension.
Depending on the amino carboxylic ester having the general formula (II) the reaction requires a reaction time between 1 and 50 hours. In any case the reaction must be con-tinued until initially present suspensions or material precip itated thereafter have gone completely in solution.
The further treatment is so carried out that the solvent and the excess phosgene are first drawn off, when re-quired under reduced pressure. The recovered materials can be used again directly. I~ the N-chloro-carbonyl-amino carbox-ylic acid is volatile, then the remaining residue can be dis-tilled for further purification, when required under reduced pressure.
When the N-chloro-carbonyl amino carbox~lic ester Eormed has a higher molecular weight (this is generally the case when the ring carrying the chloro-carbonyl group has 6 ring members and/or carries aromatic or heteroaromatic substi-tuents) it frequently can no longer be distilled without de-composition. In these cases a further purification can be carried out in that the residue remaining after the removal of both the solvent and the excess phosgene is taken up in new solvent and subjected to clarification with active carbon.
After fil~ration the filtrate is freed from solven~ at reduced pressure and an oil which crystallizes under certain conditions is obtained.
When the N-chloro-carbonyl-amino carboxylic ester is optically active, its optical purity can be tested, for example, in that a sample is subjected to hydrolysis, the liberated amino acid is isolated and its rotational value is determined.
It is found that the original optical con~iguration has remain-ed unchanged.
The N-chloro-carbonyl-amino carboxylic esters having the general formula (I) can be reacted with the most varied primary and secondary amines to form active substances of the hydantoin or urea t~pe, which are known per se, for example, from the British Patent 1,S03,244~ This reaction is carried out in the presence of an acid acceptor, for example~ pyridine or triethyl amine, in at least equimolar amounts. It can b~
carried out in the absence of additional solvents or in a suit~
able solvent, for example, in dioxane or toluene. The reaction temperature can be between approximately 20C and the reflux temperature of the reaction mixture~ The desired hydantoin or urea derivatives are obtained in high yields within relative-ly short reaction times of e~g., ~ to 5 hours.
The invention will be explained in greater detail by means of the Examples hereafter.
Example 1 _ 1.2 moles (181.9 g~ of L-azetidine-carboxylic (2)-methyl ester ~HCl are suspended in 800 ml of chloroform and saturated with ammonia gas while stirring and cooling.

The residue is added dropwise to a solution of 200 ml of phosgene in 400 ml of chloroform at 0C within 2 hours while stirring. The reac-tion mixture is then stirred for 12 hours at roo~ temperature.
