Abstract

The invention relates to a process for the preparation of a quaternary ammonium hydroxide, in particular denatonium hydroxide, and the use thereof for the preparation of a quaternary ammo nium salt, in particular of denatonium benzoate or a denatonium fatty acid derivative. Due to its extremely bitter taste, this latter compound is applied in the art as an aversive agent, biocide, antifoulant and flavorant. It is usually prepared from a quaternary ammonium halide in an organic environment, which after isolation and purification is converted to a hygroscopic and unstable hydroxide intermediate, which in turn is immediately converted to the salt of interest in the solvent in which it is prepared. It is now found that these isolation steps can be avoided by performing the reaction at aqueous conditions. This is more straightforwardly and does not require costly precaut ions to avoid contact while handling. Moreover, the process of the invention allows to produce the quaternary ammonium salt from a lignocaine compound in a one-pot synthesis involving mostly water.

Description

Preparation of a quaternary ammonium hydroxide and use thereof for the preparation of a quaternary ammonium salt TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The invention relates to a process for the preparation of a quaternary ammonium hydroxide, in particular N-{2-[(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-amino]-2-oxoethyl}-N,N-diethyl-benzenemethanaminium hydroxide (i.e. denatonium hydroxide), and the use thereof for the preparation of a quaternary ammonium salt, in particular of denatonium benzoate or a denatonium fatty acid derivative.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Quaternary ammonium compounds, in particular denatonium benzoate or denatonium capsaicinate, provide an enhanced bitter and/or spicy, pungent flavor, and for that reason may be applied as an aversive agent, biocide, antifoulant or flavorant.
These compounds are often incorporated into compositions or coatings in order to deter either ingestion by humans or to repel mammals, reptiles, fish and birds from an article coated therewith, but also the use as a denaturant for alcohol and tallow or as a bitter flavoring agent in food.
It is known in the art to produce denatonium benzoate, or related quaternary salts, starting from a denatonium halide. For example, GB 955,309 teaches a synthesis route for a quaternary ammonium benzoate involving denatonium chloride, wherein the denatonium chloride is first prepared by reacting lignocaine with benzyl chloride in an organic solvent, and then contacted with alcoholic caustic alkali or an ion-exchange resin in the hydroxide form to give denatonium hydroxide. This intermediate product is converted to denatonium benzoate, or related salts, using benzoic acid and methanol.
From GB 955,309 it is generally understood that the quality of a quaternary denatonium salt such as denatonium benzoate or denatonium capsaicinate is largely determined by the purity of the starting material, i.e. the denatonium halide.
In order to arrive at a quaternary ammonium salt that meets USP specifications, denatonium halide is first subjected to isolation and purification steps involving vacuum distillation in an oraanic environment and centrifuaation or crvstallization, before it is converted to a hygroscopic and unstable denatonium hydroxide intermediate. It is mentioned in GB
955,309 that the quaternary hydroxide is best used in the organic solvent in which it is prepared to produce the final quaternary ammonium compound of interest.
Because denatonium halides are known to be extremely bitter and highly contaminating compounds, every working step involving these compounds requires costly precautions to avoid contact while handling. This is especially the case where such a compound is isolated from its solvent environment.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a process for the preparation of a quaternary ammonium salt, in particular denatonium benzoate or related salt, particularly a denatonium benzoate, wherein the pure quaternary ammonium salt thus prepared meets the international standards set thereto, wherein the process lacks any superfluous isolation steps, wherein the solvent conditions throughout the process do not change significantly and where possible contact with the bitter compounds used in the process is minimized.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Accordingly the present invention relates to a process for the preparation of a quaternary ammonium hydroxide R+OH-, in which R+ has the formula:

,,..... ~r ;, ,........~ ...
~,: ..

in which Rl and R2 each independently represent an alkyl group containing from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, for example methyl, ethyl, n-propyl or n-butyl groups, and R3 represents a benzyl group or a substituted benzyl group, such as o- or p-chlorobenzyl, said process comprising forming an aqueous solution containing a quaternary ammonium halide having said cation R+, and said halide preferably being a Cl-ion, contacting said aqueous solution with hydroxide ions, to obtain a quaternary ammonium hydroxide, and isolating said quaternary ammonium hydroxide.
In the process of the invention the quaternary ammonium hydroxide rather than the corresponding ammonium halide starting material is isolated. It is found that the purity of the hydroxide form has a direct effect on the quality of the final product to be prepared from this compound, but that the quaternary ammonium hydroxide is isolated much more straightforwardly than the halide form, despite the warnings for instability of the hydroxide given in GB 955,309. The invention takes advantage of the water-insolubility of the quaternary ammonium hydroxide by exchanging the halide ions with hydroxide ions in an aqueous environment rather than in the organic, mostly alcoholic environment applied in the prior art.
It is considered unnecessary and even unwanted to subject the quaternary ammonium halide after formation to any purification and isolation steps other than extraction. The extraction step allows for the removal of any starting materials or other impurities originating from the formation of the halide salt. It is considered economically favorable to provide the quaternary ammonium halide in the solvent in which it is prepared over a complete isolation of this compound using vacuum distillation and crystallization as taught in GB 955,309. Conveniently the quaternary ammonium halide is provided in an aqueous environment which is preferably washed at least once with an organic solvent, preferably toluene. Preferably the aqueous solution provided to the reaction comprises quaternary ammonium halide in an amount between 30 wt% and 90 wt%, more preferably between 50 wt% and 75 wt%, based on the weight of the aqueous solution.
The source of hydroxide ions in the above-mentioned reaction can be caustic alkali or an ion-exchange resin in the hydroxide form. It is preferred that the hydroxide ions are provided by an aqueous caustic alkali solution, preferably a sodium hydroxide solution having a concentration of at least 40 wt% and up to 60 wt%, more preferably 45 - 55 wt%, most preferably 48 - 52 wt%, based on the weight of the solution.
The reaction is preferably performed at atmospheric conditions and at temperatures between - 50 C, more preferably between 20 and 40 C, most preferably between 25 and C.
The quaternary ammonium halide and the hydroxide ions are provided in such relative amounts that there is an excess hvdroxide ions over auaternarv ammonium halide, "excess" meaning a molar ratio of hydroxide ions to quaternary ammonium halide higher than 1:1, preferably between 1.1:1 and 2:1, more preferably between 1:1:1 and 1.3:1.
Where it is mentioned that the reaction is performed in an aqueous environment, it is preferred that the solvent comprises at least 80 wt% of water, preferably at least 90 wt%, more preferably at least 95 wt% of water, based on the total weight of the solvent, and most preferably the solvent does not contain a detectable amount of organic solvent at all. With the "solvent" it is meant both the water provided by the aqueous solution containing the quaternary ammonium halide and the solvent containing the hydroxide ions.
Purification of the quaternary ammonium hydroxide involves washing with excess water to remove salts such as sodium or potassium hydroxide present in solution. Due to its aforementioned water-insolubility, the quaternary ammonium hydroxide precipitates as it forms, and the solid can be isolated in crystalline form by centrifugation and/or filtering techniques known to those skilled in the art.
The invention also relates to a denatonium hydroxide in its crystalline form, having a melting point between 150 and 160 C, more preferably 150 - 157 C, preferably having an off-white appearance, which can be obtained by the above-described process.
The quaternary ammonium halide is preferably formed from the reaction of a tertiary amine of the formula:

';--------- ;~y , _ ~ .. \
......_ .......,... '~

(u)~
with a halide having the general formula R3halide, wherein Rl, R2 and R3 each have the aforementioned meaning, and the halide being a F, Cl, Br, I group, preferably a Cl group, wherein the reaction is performed in aqueous conditions. It is preferred that the tertiary amine according to formula (II) is a lignocaine (c)--diethylamino-2,6-dimethylacetanilide or lidocaine) compound, or a derivative thereof. The lignocaine is understood to comprise both its acidic and its free base form. When the R3-halide is highly reactive, the quaternising reaction may take place at room temperature.
In most cases, however, it is necessary to employ heating, preferably involving a temperature between 50 and 100 C, more preferably 70 - 90 C. These conditions can readily be determined by those skilled in the art. As mentioned above, recovery of the contaminating quaternary ammonium halide is to be avoided. The halide salt thus obtained is washed at least once with an organic solvent, preferably toluene, to remove excess R3_halide and organic impurities.
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention the lignocaine compound or derivate thereof is brought into contact with a benzyl halide, preferably a benzyl chloride, which upon reacting yields denatonium chloride (Ri, R2 = ethyl; R3 =
benzyl in formula (I)). Lignocaine, having the formula (II) in which Rl and R2 are ethyl groups, can for instance be prepared by reacting N-chloroacetyl-2,6-dimethylaniline with diethylamine in the presence of aqueous sodium carbonate. The preferred quaternary ammonium hydroxide of the present invention is a N-{2-[(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-amino] -2-oxoethyl } -N,N-diethyl-benzenemethanaminium hydroxide or denatonium hydroxide, meaning that Rl and R2 are ethyl groups and R3 is a benzyl group in formula (I).
The process of the present invention allows for the production of an extremely bitter quaternary ammonium salt from a lignocaine compound in a one-pot synthesis involving mostly water, without the necessity to intervene in between through isolation of an intermediate compound, up to the point where quaternary ammonium hydroxide is obtained as a stable solid. Extensive contact with contaminating intermediate states and distillations at reduced pressure and high temperatures can thus be avoided.
The invention also relates to a process for the preparation of a quaternary ammonium salt having a benzoate, a hydrogen phthalate, a hydrogen tartrate, a hydrogen oxalate or a capsaicinate anion, or their substituted analogues, or a fatty acid derivative, by reacting the corresponding isolated quaternary ammonium hydroxide of the invention with the conjugated acid of the anion, i.e. benzoic acid, phtalic acid, tartaric acid, oxalic acid, capsaicin, or with the fatty acid, respectively, in the presence of an organic solvent such as methanol or acetone, preferably acetone. With a fatty acid derivative it is meant the coniuaated base of a fattv acid, such as palmitate, linolate.

linolenate or eruciate. Fatty acids in the context of the invention are aliphatic monocarboxylic acids containing a long hydrocarbon chain, either saturated or unsaturated, preferably having a carbon chain length from C12 to C22. With the process of the present invention it is now possible to produce such quaternary ammonium salts with up to 50 % production time reduction.
The quaternary ammonium salt is preferably a denatonium benzoate, prepared from the reaction of a denatonium hydroxide according to the invention with benzoic acid, preferably using acetone as the solvent.
In another embodiment the quaternary ammonium salt is preferably a denatonium fatty acid derivative, prepared from the reaction of a denatonium hydroxide with a fatty acid. The denatonium fatty acid derivative is preferably denatonium palmitate, linolate, linoleate or ericuiate.
