- - Description Explosion-proof 1-dimethylamino-3-dimethylimino-2-aryl-l-propene salts, proces3es for their preparation and their use As is known, 1-dimethylamino-3-dimethylimino-2-aryl-1-propene perchlorates are important intermediates for the synthesis of heterocycles, such as, for example, pyrimi-dines (cf. Zaschke, Z. Chem. 17 (1977) p. 63 and 293;
Arnold, Collect. Czech. Chem. Commun. 38 (1978) 1371;
Zaschke, J. prakt. Chemie 321 (1979) 619) and pyridines (cf. C.A. 109:64513w, (1988)). Preparative methods for this class of compounds, which is also known by the short name trimethine perchlorates, are also known. It is furthermore known that these perchlorates, which are - slightly soluble in water, are explosive to highly explosive products when dry (cf. Chem. Eng. News 52 (1974) No. 31, p. 3), the handling of which in their possible use as intermediates is extremely dangerous.
~heir industrial use is therefore virtually precluded.

Accordingly, the ob~ect of the present invention was to provide trimethine salts which can be handled in an explosion-proof manner, can be prepared without difficul-ties in the purity required, and can otherwise be usedlike the perchlorates, but without risk of explosion, as intermediates, inter alia, for the syntheses of the abovementioned heterocycles.

Surprisingly, it has now been found that, while avoiding the use of perchlorate as anion, explosion-proof trimeth-ine salts of low to slight solubility in water can be obtained by reacting water-soluble trimethine salts in aqueous medium with non-oxidizing acids which can form trimethine salts of low to slight solubility in water and are inert towards the trimethine cation, or with water-soluble salts of these non-oxidizing acids and isolating , : , . . . .

Preferred acids of the formula III or water-soluble salts thereof are p-toluenesulfonic acid, sodium p-toluene-sulfonate, sodium tetrafluoroborate, sodium hexafluoro-antimonate, sodium hexafluorophosphate, sodium hexa-fluoroaluminate, naphthalene-2-sulfonic acid, sodium naphthalene-2-sulfonate, sodium naphthalene-l-sulfonate, disodium naphthalene-1,5-disulfonate, or mixtures of these salts or scids, in particular with the acids or salts based on them. Hexafluorophosphate and naphthalene-2-sulfonate are particularly preferred.

The trimethine salts of the formula I prepared according to the invention are preferably formed in a fine-crystal-line form and can be easily separated off from the motherliquor, washed with water and, if desired, subsequently dried, after which they are typically obtained in a purity of over 99%.

~005330 desired, additionally be recrystallized from suitable solvents, which is however, in general not necessary for their further use as intermediates for the synthesis of heterocycles, since they are already excellent synthetic components even without additional purification. Guiding tests in this direction have also shown that, when the compounds according to the invention of the formula I are used as starting materials for pyrimidine syntheses, the anion of the compounds of the formula I apparently only plays a minor role in the outcome of the syntheses, even if compared with the corresponding known perchlorates, which is highly surprising and advantageous. The com-pounds of the formula I are characterized, inter alia, for example, by determining their melting point and recording their IR absorption spectrum.

Thé invention is illustrated in more detail by the examples which follow.

Example 1 In a stirred apparatus, 54 ml (0.6 mol) of phosphorus oxychloride are slowly added dropwise to 73.9 g (1.0 mol) of dimethylformamide (DMF) with stirring and cooling at such a rate that the temperature of the reaction mixture does not exceed 20C. The resulting ~olution is cooled to -10C, and 30 g (0.2 mol) of p-hydroxyphenylacetic acid are added in portions with stirring. The resulting syrup-like mixture is first maintained at room temperature for 1 hour, then stirred at 60C for 2 hours and at 80C for 3 hours and then poured onto 500 g of ice. After the exothermic hydrolysis reaction resulting from the contact with the ice is complete, the resulting aqueous solution is stirred with activated carbon, filtered, and 38 g (0.22 mol) of sodium hexafluorophosphate, dissolved in 60 ml of water, are added to the clear solution obtained.
