Description

Verfahren zur Herstellung von Dihydromethysticin oder Dihydrokawain Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Herstellung von 4-Methoxy-6-(3',4'-methylendioxyphenyläthyl)-5,6-dihydro-oI-pyron (Dihydromethysticin) und 4-Methoxy-6-(phenyläthyl)-5, 6-dihydro-oc-pyron (Dihydrokawain).Process for the production of dihydromethysticin or dihydrokawain The invention relates to a process for the preparation of 4-methoxy-6- (3 ', 4'-methylenedioxyphenylethyl) -5,6-dihydro-ol-pyrone (Dihydromethysticin) and 4-methoxy-6- (phenylethyl) -5, 6-dihydro-oc-pyrone (dihydrokawain).

Die partielle katalytische Hydrierung von Verbindungen vom Typ des Methysticins, also von Dihydro--pyron-Verbindungen, die eine ungesättigte aliphatische Brücke enthalten, stößt häufig insofern auf Schwierigkeiten, als bei der Hydrierung nicht nur die aliphatische Doppelbindung, sondern auch die 3,4-Doppelbindung des Pyronringes angegriffen wird. The partial catalytic hydrogenation of compounds of the type des Methysticins, i.e. from dihydro- pyrone compounds, which are an unsaturated aliphatic Containing bridge often encounters difficulties insofar as hydrogenation not only the aliphatic double bond, but also the 3,4 double bond des Pyronringes is attacked.

Es ist zwar bereits bekannt (Berichte der Deutschen Chemischen Gesellschaft, Bd. 62, 1929, S. 360 bis 367), die aliphatische Doppelbindung eines-Pyronderivats vom oben beschriebenen Typ bei Zimmertemperatur katalytisch zu hydrieren. Die nach diesem Verfahren erzielten Ausbeuten lassen jedoch noch zu wünschen übrig. It is already known (reports of the German Chemical Society, Vol. 62, 1929, pp. 360 to 367), the aliphatic double bond of a pyrone derivative of the type described above to catalytically hydrogenate at room temperature. The after However, the yields achieved in this process still leave something to be desired.

Ferner wird in der USA.-Patentschrift 2 870 164 die Hydrierung von Methysticin zum Dihydromethysticin bei Zimmertemperatur und unter Druck beschrieben. Auch die hier erzielten Ausbeuten befriedigen nicht. In addition, US Pat. No. 2,870,164 describes the hydrogenation of Methysticin to dihydromethysticin at room temperature and under pressure is described. The yields achieved here are also unsatisfactory.

Es wurde nun überraschenderweise gefunden, daß man 4 - Methoxy - 6 - (3',4' - methylendioxyphenyläthyl)-5,6-dihydro-a-pyron (Dihydromethysticin) oder 4-Methoxy-6- (phenyläthyl) - 5,6 - dihydro-ol-pyron (Dihydrokawain) durch Hydrierung von 4-Methoxy-6 - (3',4' - methylendioxystyryl) - 5,6 - dihydro-x-pyron oder 4-Methoxy-6-styryl-5,6-dihydro-a-pyron in Gegenwart von Methanol und kolloidalem Palladium als Katalysator in besseren Ausbeuten dadurch erhält, daß man eine methanolische Lösung verwendet, die einen Teil des zu hydrierenden o ;-Pyrons als Bodenkörper enthält, und die Hydrierung bis zum Verschwinden des Bodenkörpers bei einer Temperatur von -10 bis -5"C durchführt oder einleitet und die Temperatur nicht über +15°C ansteigen läßt. It has now been found, surprisingly, that 4 - methoxy - 6 - (3 ', 4' - methylenedioxyphenylethyl) -5,6-dihydro-a-pyrone (dihydromethysticin) or 4-methoxy-6- (phenylethyl) -5,6-dihydro-ol-pyrone (dihydrokawain) by hydrogenation of 4-methoxy-6 - (3 ', 4' - methylenedioxystyryl) - 5,6 - dihydro-x-pyrone or 4-methoxy-6-styryl-5,6-dihydro-a-pyrone in the presence of methanol and colloidal palladium as a catalyst in better Yields obtained by using a methanolic solution that has a Contains part of the o; -pyron to be hydrogenated as a soil body, and the hydrogenation until the body of the soil disappears at a temperature of -10 to -5 "C. or initiates and does not allow the temperature to rise above + 15 ° C.

Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren verläuft die partielle Hydrierung praktisch quantitativ. Die Ausbeuten betragen beispielsweise 95 bis 98 01o der Theorie. Die 3,4-Doppelbindung des o ;-Pyronringes wird somit bei der Hydrierung nicht angegriffen, und auch eine Spaltung des Pyronringes tritt nicht ein. Ein solcher Reaktionsverlauf des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens war nicht ohne weiteres voraussehbar. In the process according to the invention, the partial hydrogenation takes place practically quantitative. The yields are, for example, 95 to 98,010 of theory. The 3,4 double bond of the o; pyrone ring is therefore not attacked during the hydrogenation, and the pyrone ring does not split either. Such a course of reaction of the process according to the invention was not readily foreseeable.

Das Dihydrokawain wirkt als Antiphlogisticum und Endoanästheticum, das Dihydromethysticin als schlafinduzierendes Mittel und ebenfalls als Endoanästheticum. The Dihydrokawain acts as an anti-inflammatory and endo-anesthetic, the dihydromethysticin as sleep-inducing agent and also as an endo-anesthetic.

Die folgenden Beispiele erläutern das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren. The following examples explain the process according to the invention.

Beispiel 1 300 g 4- Methoxy-6- (3',4' - methylendioxystyryl)-5,6-dihydro-a-pyron (Methysticin) werden in 10 1 Methanol gegeben, und das Ganze wird im Kühlschrank auf -10 bis -5"C gebracht. Zu der abgekühlten Lösung, die 4-Methoxy-6-(3',4'-methylendioxystyryl)-5,6-dihydro-a-pyron (Methysticin) als Bodenkörper ungelöst enthält, werden 50 ccm Palladium-Lösung nach P a a 1 zugegeben, und dann wird mit Wasserstoff auf dem Schüttelapparat so lange hydriert, bis sich der Bodenkörper gerade gelöst hat. Example 1 300 g of 4-methoxy-6- (3 ', 4' - methylenedioxystyryl) -5,6-dihydro-a-pyrone (Methysticin) are put in 10 1 of methanol, and the whole thing is in the refrigerator brought to -10 to -5 "C. To the cooled solution, the 4-methoxy-6- (3 ', 4'-methylenedioxystyryl) -5,6-dihydro-a-pyrone (Methysticin) contains undissolved sediment, 50 ccm of palladium solution are added P a a 1 is added, and then hydrogen on the shaker for so long hydrates until the soil has just loosened.

Die Endtemperatur bei der Hydrierung darf nicht über 15"C ansteigen. Nach dem Abkühlen wird 20 g Kohlepulver zugesetzt, geschüttelt und das Gemisch filtriert. Das klare Filtrat wird bis zur Hälfte eingeengt; anschließend läßt man im Kühlschrank auskristallisieren. The final temperature during the hydrogenation must not exceed 15 ° C. After cooling, 20 g of powdered carbon are added, shaken and the mixture is filtered. The clear filtrate is concentrated by half; then leave in the refrigerator crystallize.

Die Ausbeute an 4-Methoxy-6-(3',4'-methylendioxyphenyläthyl) - 5,6 - dihydro- oc-pyron (Dihydromethysticin) beträgt 290 bis 295 g. Die Verbindung schmilzt bei 116 bis 117"C und ergibt eine weinrote Schwefelsäurereaktion. The yield of 4-methoxy-6- (3 ', 4'-methylenedioxyphenylethyl) - 5.6 - dihydro- oc-pyrone (dihydromethysticin) is 290 to 295 g. The connection is melting at 116 to 117 "C and gives a wine-red sulfuric acid reaction.

Beispiel 2 100 g 4-Methoxy-6-styryl- 5,6- dihydro-nc-pyron (Kawain) werden in 500ccm Methanol gegeben, und das Ganze wird im Kühlschrank auf -10 bis -5"C gebracht. Zu der abgekühlten Lösung, die 4-Methoxy- 6-styryl- 5,6 - dihydro - - pyron (Kawain) als Bodenkörper ungelöst enthält, werden 20 ccm Palladium-Lösung nach P a a 1 zugegeben, und dann wird mit Wasserstoff so lange bei der angegebenen Temperatur hydriert, bis sich der Bodenkörper gerade gelöst hat. Da zu Anfang die Hydrierung schnell einsetzt, ist es angebracht, den einzuleitenden Wasserstoff ebenfalls aus -10 bis 5OC zu kühlen. Nach dem Abkühlen wird 20 g Kohlepulver zugesetzt, geschüttelt und das Gemisch filtriert. Das klare Filtrat wird bis zur Hälfte eingeengt; anschließend läßt man im Kühlschrank auskristallisieren. Example 2 100 g of 4-methoxy-6-styryl-5,6-dihydro-nc-pyrone (Kawain) are placed in 500ccm of methanol, and the whole thing is in the refrigerator to -10 to -5 "C. To the cooled solution, the 4-methoxy-6-styryl-5,6 - dihydro - - If pyron (Kawain) contains undissolved soil, 20 ccm of palladium solution become after P a a 1 added, and then with hydrogen for so long hydrogenated at the specified temperature until the soil has just loosened. Since the hydrogenation starts quickly at the beginning, it is advisable to initiate the To cool hydrogen also from -10 to 5OC. After cooling, 20 g of carbon powder is added added, shaken and the mixture filtered. The clear filtrate is up to Half constricted; then allowed to crystallize in the refrigerator.

Die Ausbeute an 4-Methoxy-6-(phenyläthyl)-5,6-dihydro-ozpyron (Dihydrokawain) beträgt 98,5 g. Die Verbindung schmilzt nach dem Umkristallisieren aus Äther und Petroläther (7:3) bei 58 bis 60"C und ergibt eine negative Schwefelsäurereaktion. The yield of 4-methoxy-6- (phenylethyl) -5,6-dihydro-ozpyron (Dihydrokawain) is 98.5 g. The compound melts after recrystallization from ether and Petroleum ether (7: 3) at 58 to 60 "C and gives a negative sulfuric acid reaction.
