Description

PROCESS FOR PREPARATION OF CYCLOHEXANOL DERIVATIVES
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Field of the Invention [01] The present invention relates to a process for preparation of cyclohexanol derivatives such as 1-[cyano (4-methoxyphenyl)methyl] cyclohexanol.
Bac k~round of the Related Art [02] Cyclohexanol derivatives such as 1-[cyano(4-methoxyphenyl)methyl]
cyclohexanol are useful intermediates for making compounds like venlafaxine which have anti-depressant effects by inhibiting re-uptake of neurotransmitters, norepinephrine and serotonin. As disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 4,535,186, cyclohexanol derivatives can be produced by reaction of a cycloalkanone or cycloallcenone with an appropriately substituted (ortho or para) phenylacetonitrile anion.
[03] The preparation method disclosed in the US '186 patent involves the use of an organometallic base such as n-butyl lithium in order to induce phenylacetonitrile anion in the reaction. The organometallic base is expensive, has to be used in an amount of at least one equivalent of the reactant at a low temperature below -50 C , is characteristically susceptible to water in air with the risk of fire or explosion, and provides a low production yield of less than 50 percent. Therefore, organometallic bases are considered impractical for industrial scale synthesis.
[04] U.S. Patent No. 5,043,466 discloses a process for preparation of cyclohexanol derivatives which use an organometallic base such as a lithium di-isopropylamide as illustrated in the following reaction mechanism. The US '466 patent varies the mixed ratio of hydrocarbon solvents in an attempt to improve reaction temperature and yield, but there still remains the problem of the base, lithium di-isopropylamide being impractical for industrial scale synthesis as it too is expensive, hard to handle, and can be a fire or explosion risk.

R~=H,~H~,Proteciive Geouia [05] Chinese Patent Publication No. 1225356 (CN01225356A) discloses the use of bases such as sodium methoxide, sodium ethoxide, sodium hydride and sodium amide in the preparation of cyclohexanol derivatives to enhance the reaction temperature in the range of 0 to 5 C . However, the disclosed bases were used in amounts of at Ieast one equivalent of the reactant, and are also dangerous as they too are prone to combustion or explosion.
[06] The known processes above involve two steps, i.e. reacting phenylacetonitrile with a base to produce an anion and coupling the anion with a ketone compound. In particular, the reaction in the anion-producing step involves some difficulties with regard to determination of the end point of the step and quantitative analysis of the anion produced. Such problems give rise to variations in yield in the coupling step and therefore they are also difficult for industrial application for this reason.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[07] Accordingly, the present invention is directed to a process for preparation .
of cyclohexanol derivatives that substantially overcomes problems and disadvantages of the conventional art.
[08] An object of the present invention is to provide a process for preparation of cyclohexanol derivatives by reaction of phenylacetonitrile with cyclohexanone to enable economical and reasonable mass quantity production.
[09] Another object of the present invention is to provide a process for preparation of cyclohexanol derivatives that is safe and environmentally friendly Without the risk of fire or explosion and simpler than conventional syntheses because the reactants are all mixed in one reaction.
[10] One aspect of the present invention is a process for preparation of cyclohexanol derivatives of formula I, ~f~g II

(n) (nI) in the presence of non-organometallic base catalysts represented by the formula IV or V, in the presence or absence of a reaction solvent, r (IV) (V) wherein A is -(CH2 ) n -where n is an integer from 2 to 4; B is - (CH2)m where m is an integer from 2 to 5 ; X is CHZ, O, NH or NR' where R' is a C1-C4 alkyl or acyl, or an alkyl supporting polymer ; each of and Rl to R~. is independently hydrogen, an alkyl, a cycloalkyl or an alkyl or cycloalkyl supporting polymer, and all of Rl to R4 are not hydrogen, and RS is an alkyl, a cycloalkyl or an alkyl or cyloalkyl supporting polymer, and where R9 is an alkyl, alkyl group is introduced by alkylation.
[11] The non-organometallic base used in the present invention comprises amidines or guanidines represented by formula IV or V More specifically, examples of non- organometallic bases of the present invention include amidines, e.g.
1,8-diazabicyclo [5,4,0]undec-7-ene (DBU) and 1,5-diazabicyclo[4,3,0]non-5-ene (DBN);
cyclic guanidines, e.g. 1,5,7-triazabicyclo[4,4,0]dec-5-ene (TBD) and 7-methyl-1,5,7-triazabicyclo[4,4,0]dec-5-ene (MTBD); alkyl guanidines, e.g. tetra methyl guanidine (TMG), tetra butyl guanidine, penta methyl guanidine, penta butyl guanidine and N'-butyl-N",N"-dicyclohexylguanidine. The base catalyst of the present invention may be a homogeneous catalyst or may be a catalyst containing an amidine- or guanidine-based organic amine base immobilized on a polymer support (e.g. polystyrene) or an inorganic support (e.g. silica). The non-organometallic base of the present invention is at least one selected from the group consisting of the above-mentioned bases.
[12] The amount of the non-organometallic base used is not specifically limited and may be in the range from about 0.0001 to about 2 equivalents, and more preferably, from about 0.005 to 0.5 equivalents relative to one equivalent of the compound of formula II. The reaction of the present invention can be successfully accomplished with the base catalysts used only in a catalytic amount, which is advantageous.
[13] The present invention may optionally not use an organic solvent comprising hydrocarbons or ethers that are required in conventional synthesis.
Whether to use an organic solvent or not is optimally decided by those skilled in the art, but it is generally preferred not to use an organic solvent.
[14] In preparation of the cyclohexanol derivatives such as 1-[cyano(4-methoxyphenyl)methyl]cyclohexanol represented by formula I according to the present invention, the reaction temperature is preferably in the range of about -20 to 80 C , more preferably about 10 to 30 C . The process of the present invention can be' conducted even at room temperature, which is advantageous.
[15] The present invention presents a process for preparation of cyclohexanol derivatives by reaction of an appropriately substituted, para-phenylacetonitrile with a cyclohexanone in the presence of a non-organometallic amine base (e.g. DBU, DBN, TBN, MTBD, TMG or N'-butyl-N",N"-dicyclohexylguanidine) in accordance with reaction mechanism T.

Catalyst J
c~~~a (I) [16] In the above reaction, R6 to R9, and p are the same as defined above, and where R9 is an alkyl, it is introduced by alkylation.
[I7] In the preparation of the cyclohexanol derivatives such as 1-[cyano(4-methoxyphenyl)methyl]cyclohexanol represented formula I, a non-organo metallic base such as DBU, DBN, TBD, MTBD, TMG or N'-butyl-N",N"-dicyclohexylguanidine that is an amine base is used instead of an organometallic base such as n-butyl lithium or lithium diisopropyl amide used in conventional processes to induce a phenylacetontirile anion. The use of a non-organometallic base, in a relatively small amount that is relatively inexpensive, less susceptible to hydration, operable at room temperature, with no risk of fire or explosion, enables mass quantity production through a safe and relatively simple industrial process. Only catalytic amounts of non-organometallic base are needed in the present invention, which produces highly pure, high yield cyclohexanol derivatives.
[18] The present process is also more simplified and environment-friendly without production of organometallic byproducts as use of organic solvents is avoided.
