Description

  

      Verfahren    zur Darstellung von als     Süssstoff    bedeutungsvollem       as-N-Methyl-p-phenetolear        bamid.       Unter den Derivaten des Harnstoffes  zeichnen sich mehrere durch ihren süssen Ge  schmack aus:

   es sind dies das     p-Phenetol-,          p-Anisol-    und das     p-Tolylkarb@amid,    von  denen .das erstere     (Handelsname        Dulcin)    eine  intensiv süss     schmeckende    Substanz ist, wäh  rend das     p-Anisolkarbamid    weniger und das       p-Tolylkarbami,d    nur noch     merklich    süss  schmeckt. Das     Dulcin    hat sich als Süssstoff  eingebürgert; einer allgemeinen Verwendung       steht    jedoch seine Schwerlöslichkeit in Was  ser entgegen.

   Es sind deshalb schon mehr  fach Versuche unternommen worden, durch  Veränderungen     seines        Moleküls    die Löslich  keit und wenn möglich auch die Süsskraft zu  erhöhen. So     wurden    Verbindungen herge  stellt, bei welchem in dem     Harnstoffrest    je  ein Wasserstoffatom der beiden     Amidogrup-          pen        durch,den        Phenetol-        bezw.        Anisolrest    er  setzt ist.     (Ber.    25, 1892, 1090;     Ber.        d.    d.

         pharm.    Ges. 3, 1893,     13ä.)        Ferner    wurde das  p.-     Phenoxyessigsäurekarb@amid,    sowie sein       Äthylester    hergestellt     (Ber:   <B>3</B>0, 1817, 547).  Auch höhere Homologe des     Dulcins    wurden    untersucht     (Ber.    34, 1901, 1935). .Sämtliche       Substanzen        zeigten    aber nicht mehr .den süssen       Geschmack.    Neuere Versuche     (Ber.    der d.

         pharm.    Ges. 30, 1920, 227 und 251) berich  ten     über,die    Einführung von     Substituenten    in  den     Benzolkern        bezw.    in     die        Alkogygruppe     des     Dulcins;    auch durch diese     Abänderungen     wurde ,die Süsskraft ,des     Dulcins    aufgehoben.  



  Demgegenüber wurde .die     überraschende     Beobachtung gemacht,     da.ss    indem     p-Phene-          tolkarbamid    die     Substitution    des Wasser  stoffes der     Imidogruppedurch    einen     Methyl-          rest    einer Erhöhung der Süsskraft als auch  ,der     Löslichkeit    bewirkt,     wie    ,aus den nach  stehenden Zahlenangaben hervorgeht.

   Wäh  rend die Löslichkeit des     Dulüins    1 : 775 bei  45' und 1 :825 bei 21' ist, beträgt sie bei  ,dem     .as-N-Methyl-p-Phenetalharnstof    f 1<B>:96</B>       bezw.    1 :216. Das     Dulcin    ist etwa 200 mal  süsser als Zucker, der nun am     Imidostickstoff          methylierte    Körper dagegen 275 mal.  



  Zur Darstellung des neuen Süssstoffes, des       as-N-Methyl-p-phenetolkarbamids,    verfährt  man so,     @dass    man auf     N-Methyl-p-phenetidin              Cya.nate    in saurer Lösung zur Einwirkung  bringt. Der neue Süssstoff     ist    leicht löslich  in warmem Wasser, in Alkohol, Äther und  Benzol; sehr leicht löst er sich in Chloroform.  Aus Alkohol oder     Wasser    kristallisiert bildet  er     prismatische        Kriställchen,    die den F. P.  137   zeigen.  



       Beispiel:     151 g     N-Methyl-p-Phenetidin    werden in  200     ein'        6-fach        n-Salzsäure    gelöst und all  mählich mit einer wässerigen Lösung von  90g     Kaliumeyanat    versetzt. Der Harnstoff  scheidet sich ölig .ab und wird bald, beson  ders durch Reiben, fest. Er wird abgesaugt,  mit wenig eiskaltem Wasser gewaschen und  aus Wasser oder Alkohol gegebenenfalls un  ter Zusatz von Tierkohle     umkristallisiert.  



      Process for the preparation of as-N-methyl-p-phenetolearbamide, which is important as a sweetener. Among the derivatives of urea, several are distinguished by their sweet taste:

   These are p-phenetole, p-anisole and p-tolylcarb @ amide, of which the former (trade name Dulcin) is an intensely sweet tasting substance, while p-anisole carbamide less and p-tolyl carbami, d only tastes noticeably sweet. Dulcin has established itself as a sweetener; however, its poor solubility in water stands in the way of general use.

   Therefore, several attempts have been made to increase the solubility and, if possible, the sweetness by changing its molecule. Thus, compounds were produced in which one hydrogen atom from each of the two amido groups in the urea residue, the phenetol or Anisole residue he is. (Ber. 25, 1892, 1090; Ber. D. D.

         pharm. Ges. 3, 1893, 13ä.) Furthermore, the p.-Phenoxyacetic acid carbide, as well as its ethyl ester were produced (Ber: <B> 3 </B> 0, 1817, 547). Higher homologues of dulcin were also investigated (Ber. 34, 1901, 1935). .All substances no longer showed .the sweet taste. Recent attempts (Ber. Of the d.

         pharm. Ges. 30, 1920, 227 and 251) report th on the introduction of substituents in the benzene nucleus respectively. into the alkogy group of dulcin; also by these changes the sweetness of the dulcin was abolished.



  In contrast, the surprising observation was made that the substitution of the hydrogen of the imido group by a methyl radical with p-phenol carbamide causes an increase in both sweetness and solubility, as can be seen from the figures below.

   While the solubility of the Duluins is 1: 775 at 45 'and 1: 825 at 21', it is 1: 96 or 1: 96 or .s-N-methyl-p-phenetalurea. 1: 216. Dulcin is about 200 times sweeter than sugar, whereas the body methylated on the imido nitrogen is 275 times sweeter.



  To prepare the new sweetener, the as-N-methyl-p-phenetol carbamide, the procedure is to act on N-methyl-p-phenetidine cyanate in acidic solution. The new sweetener is easily soluble in warm water, in alcohol, ether and benzene; it dissolves very easily in chloroform. Crystallized from alcohol or water, it forms prismatic crystals showing the F. P. 137.



       Example: 151 g of N-methyl-p-phenetidine are dissolved in 6-fold n-hydrochloric acid and gradually an aqueous solution of 90 g of potassium yanate is added. The urea separates in an oily form and soon becomes solid, especially through rubbing. It is filtered off with suction, washed with a little ice-cold water and recrystallized from water or alcohol, if necessary with the addition of animal charcoal.
