Description

2~2~3 Sulfonated propylphenylphosphines, their preparation and use The invention relates to novel sulfonated propylphenyl-phosphines, the preparation of these compounds and their use as a constituent of catalyst systems.

The preparation of sulfonated phenylphosphines is known.
The sodium salt of m-sulfophenyldiphenylphosphine is thus obtained by reacting triphenylphosphine with oleum, heating the reaction mixture on a water bath, diluting the reaction product with water and neutralizing the mixture with sodium hydroxide. The desired compound then crystallizes out of the mixture ~J. Chem. Soc. 1958, page 281/282).

The sodium salts of di~m-sulfophenyl)phenylphosphine and tri(m-sulfophenyl)phosphine are also obtained by sLmilar processes. The starting substance in both cases is again triphenylphosphine, which is reacted with oleum at temperatures between 18 and 40C over a period of 15 to ; 20 63 hours. The reaction product is likewise diluted with water and neutralized with sodium hydroxide, and it should be ensured that temperatures b010w 20C are maintained in the mixture during the addition of the sodium hydroxide (German Patent 2,627,354).

Treatment of the sodium salts with a cation exchanger resin gives the free acids, which can be reacted with various bases to give other salts. The barium and the tetraethylammonium salt of tri(m-sulfophenyl)phosphine, for example, can be prepared by this route (German Patent 2,627,354).

Sulfonated arylphosphines are employed, inter alia, as components of catalyst systems~ Org nic phosphines which also additionally contain alkyl radicals bonded directly to phosphorus, as well aq sulfonated phenyl radicals, have not been described to date.

2~3~

The invention relates to representatives o~ this novel class of substance, namely the compounds n-propyl(phenyl)-(m-sulfophenyl)phosphinel (n~C~H7)(C6H5)(C6H4-m-SO~H)P, n-propyldi(m-sulfophenyl)phosphine~ (n-C3H7)(C6H4-m-SO3H)2P, the sodium salts o~ n-propyl(phenyl)(m-sulfophenyl)-phosphine, (n-C3H7)(C6H5)(C6H4-m-SO3Na)P and of n-propyl-di(m-sulfophenyl)phosphine, (n-C3H~)(C6H4-m-SO3Na)2P, and the sodium salts of n-propyl(phenyl)(m-sulfophenyl)-phosphine oxide, (n-C3H7)(C6H~)C6H4-m-SO3Na)PO and of n-propyldi(m-sulfophenyl)phosphine oxide, (n-C3H7~(C6H4-m-SO3-Na)2PO-The invention further~[lore relates to a process for the preparation of the novel compounds. It comprises sulfonating propyldiphenylphosphine with oleum at tem-peratures below 10C, hydrolyzing the sulfonation pro-duct, neutralizing the hydrolyzed product with an alkali metal carbonate or alkali metal hydroxide, separating off the alkali metal sulfate, concentrating the aqueous solution, extracting the sulfonated propylphenylphos-phines from the dry residue, separating the mono- and disulfonated product by gel chromatography and if approp-riate converting the salts of the mono- and disulfo-phenylphosphine into the free sulfonic acids by ic n exchange or into the corresponding phosphine oxides by oxidation.
.
The propyldiphenylphosphine required for the preparation of the novel compounds is obtained from diphenylphosphine and propyl bromide in the presence of a suitable base, for example gOH (cf. Tsvetkov et al., Synthesis 1986, page 198 et seq.). Diphenylphosphine is accessible from chlorodiphenylphosphine by reaction with lithium aluminum hydride at 0C and subsequent hydrolytic working up (Ruchen et al., Chem. Ber. 91, 2871 (1958)~.

To introduce the sulfonic acid groups into the phenyl radicals, the alkyldiarylphosphine is treated with excess sulfur trioxide in the form of oleum as the sulfonating ~23~

agent. It has proved appropriate to employ oleum which contains 10 to 65 and in particular 20 to 30~ by weight of ~free~ sulfur trioxide. The sulfonating agent is to be used in excess, relative to the phenyl radicals. 1 to 200, preferably 3 to 30, mol o~ S03 are advantageously employed per mol of phenyl radical. In practice, the oleum is initially introduced and the phosphine is added in portions, in order to ensure a constant SO3 excess.

The sulfonation is carried out at low temperatures, i.e.
at temperatures <15C, preferably at 0 to 8C. It has proved appropriate to cool the reactor well and to introduce the phosphine slowly and in small portions into the oleum, so that the heat of reaction can be removed without effort. This means that the sulfonation does not proceed in an uncontrolled manner, but in each case only one -SO3H group enters into one or into both phenyl radicals, and in paxticular mainly in the meta-position.
After addition of all the phosphinet the after-reaction can be carried out at room temperature and essentially without external cooling. However, it is advantageous to stir the reaction mixture so that any heat of reaction possibly still arising can be uniformly distribut~d and removed without delay. Longer reaction times are neces-sary, corresponding to the low temperature. In general, the reaction has ended after 20 to 100 hours, usually after 40 to 60 hours, in the temperature ranges mentioned.

After the sulfonation~ the reaction solution is diluted (hydrolyz~d) with ice-water. During this process step it should ~e ensured that a temperature of about 30C is not exceeded, and it i advantageous to maintain temperatures in the range from 0 to 10C. The dilute solution, essen-tially containing the sulfonation product and sulfuric - acid, is then neutralized. Sui~able alkaline reagen~s are the alkali metal hydroxides and the alkali metal carbon-ates, and it is advantageous to employ sodium hydroxide.
To avoid a further increase in the volume of the reaction ~3~3 mixture and to achieve a substantial deposition of the alkali metal sulfate which forms, the neutralizing agent is used as a highly concentrated solution or in undis-solved solid form, for example caustic soda flakes or granules.

Most of the alkali metal sulfate is removed from the solution by cooling, on the basis of it~ lower solubility at low temperatures. The suitable temperatures depend on the concentration of the sulfate in the solution and its solubility as a function of the temperature. The most favorable conditions are therefore to be determined rom case ~o case by experiments. The sulfate can be removed in one or more stages, and it has proved advantageous to carry out the crystallization in two stages.

After khe deposition of the alkali metal sulfate, the solution i concentrated to dryness, preferably in the vacuum of an oil pump. The sulfonated propylphenylphos-phines are extracted from the crystal magma. Suitable extraction agents are mixture of lower alcohols, such as methanol, ethanol and propanol, with water. A mixture of 7 parts by volume of methanol and 5 parts by volume of water, for example, has proved to be a suitable extxac-tion agent. The extraction is carried out by conventional processes in one or more stages, preferably two to our - 25 stages. The extracts are combined and concentrated to dryness. The residue essentially consists of the mono-sulfonated compound (n-C3H7)P(C6H5~(C6H4-m-S03Na) and the disulfonated compound (n-C3H7)P(C6H4-m-S03Na~2 The mixture of sulfonat~d alkylarylphosphines is separa-ted by gel chromatoyraphy, a process which is described in German Patent Application P 3,822,036.9. Modified organic polymers are employed as stationary solid phases, and dextran~ crosslinked with epichlorohydrin (commerci-ally available under the name Sephadex) and oligoethylene glycol/glycidyl dLmethacrylate/pentaerythritol dimetha-crylake copclymer~ (commercially availablè under the name ~32~

Fractogel) have proved to be particularly appropriate.
Water or water/solvent mixtures are used as the liquid phase, "solvent" being a water-miscible organic solvent, preferably methanol and other lower alcohols.

The free acids can be prepared from the salt3 by treat-ment of the solutions of the sodium salts of the sulfonated alkylarylphosphines with a cation exchanger in the H+ form, and they can be isolated in bulk by concen-trating the aqueous solutions. Other salts of the novel sulfonated alkylarylphosphines can be prepared from the acids by reaction with hydroxides, carbonates, ammonia or amines.

The novel compounds are colorless, crystalline sub-stances. The sodium salts contain up to one molecule of water per sodium ion, depending on the degree of drying.
Complete deh~dration is possible by heating of the hydrate forms at 60 to 100C, preferably 65 to 80C, in a high vacuum for several hours (3 to 15 hours). The protection claimed therefore extends both to the hydrated and to the anhydrous compounds.

The novel compounds ha~e proved suitable as components of catalyst systems, in particular those which contain metals of group VIII ~ of the Periodic Table and wat~r-so~uble phosphines. They contribute towards increasing the thermal sta~ility of such systems.

The pr~paration of the novel compounds is described in the following e~ample.

Example Sulfonation of (n-propyl)diphenylphosphine - 30 29.1 g (128 mmol) of propyldiphenylphosphine are added dropwise to 290 ml of oleum (S03 content: 20% by weight~
in a 500 ml three-necked flask fitted with an internal thermometer and dropping funnel at 5~C under temperature 20323~3 control in the course of one hour. The mixture is cooled in an ice-bath so that the internal temperature does not exceed 8C during the phosphine addition. The reaction mixture is stirred at room temperature for two days and then poured onto 3 kg of crushed ice for hydrolysis of the excess oleum. It is then ne11tralized with 0.45 kg of sodium hydroxide in 1 1 of water and the solution is brought to a pH of about 7 by addition of sulfuric acid and stored at 6C for three days. The crystallization of sodium sulfate is then started by stirring and the salt is filtered off and washed with ice-water. The filtrate and wash water are concentrated in the vacuum of a rotary oil pump over a cold trap. The mono- and disulfonated product are separated from one another by gel chromato-lS graphy. Sodium sulfate run the fastest. This is followedby the disulfonated product, which thus forms the second zone. The monosulfonation product finally runs as the 3rd zone. Detection of the product is by W/VIS spectroscopy or by refractometry. The products are dried in the vacuum of an oil pump in a water bath (28C) for 10 hours.
