Definitions
- the present invention concerns a process for the preparation of 3-((3,3,3-trifluoro- propyl)thio)propionic acid and esters thereof. More particularly, the present invention concerns a process for the preparation of 3-((3,3,3-trifluoropropyl)thio)-propionic acid and esters thereof by the free radical coupling of 3-mercaptopropionic acid and esters thereof with 3,3,3- trifluoropropene .
- 3-((3,3,3-Trifluoropropyl)thio)propionic acid and methyl 3-((3,3,3-trifluoropropyl)- thio)propionate are useful to produce pesticidal thioether and pesticidal sulfoxides such as N-(3- chloro- l-(pyridin-3-yl)- lH- razol-4-yl)-N-ethyl-3-((3,3,3-trifluoro ropyl)thio)-propanamide.
- Methyl 3-((3,3,3-trifluoropropyl)thio)propionate has typically been produced by the free radical addition of methyl 3-mercaptopropionate to 3,3,3-trifluoropropene in the presence of a free radical initiator such as a-azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) at high temperatures.
- a free radical initiator such as a-azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) at high temperatures.
- AIBN a-azobisisobutyronitrile
- the present invention concerns a process for the preparation of 3-((3,3,3-trifluoro- propyl)thio)propionic acid or esters thereof by the low temperature free radical initiated coupling of 3-mercaptopropionic acid or esters thereof with 3,3,3-trifluoropropene. More particularly, the present invention concerns a process for the preparation of 3-((3,3,3- trifluoropropyl)thio)propionic acid or esters thereof (Formula I)
- R represents H or (C C 4 ) alkyl
- V-70 2,2'-azobis(4-methoxy-2,4-dimethyl) valeronitrile
- alkyl denotes branched or unbranched hydrocarbon chains.
- the low temperature free radical initiated coupling of the present invention more selectively prepares 3-((3,3,3-trifluoropropyl)thio)propionic acid or esters thereof.
- the ratio of linear to branched isomer is enhanced from about 10: 1 to about 40: 1 or greater for the acid and is enhanced from about 10: 1 to about 20: 1 or greater for the esters.
- V-70 From about 1 to about 10 mole percent initiator, V-70, is typically used, with about 5 mole percent being preferred.
- the low temperature free radical initiated coupling is conducted in an inert organic solvent.
- Typical inert organic solvents must remain liquid to -50 °C, must remain relatively inert to the free radical conditions and must dissolve the reactants at reaction temperatures.
- Preferred inert organic solvents are solvents such as toluene, ethyl acetate, and methanol.
- the temperature at which the reaction is conducted is from about 0 °C to about 40 °C.
- the 3-mercaptopropionic acid or esters thereof and V-70 are added to an inert organic solvent.
- the solution is cooled to less than about -50 °C and the 3,3,3- trifluoropropene is transferred into the reaction mixture.
- the reaction mixture is heated to about 50 °C for about 1 hour to decompose any remaining V-70 initiator followed by cooling and solvent removal.
- octanophenone 526.2 mg as an internal standard and was purged and pressure checked with nitrogen.
- the reactor was cooled with dry ice and the 3,3,3-trifluoropropene (3.10 g, 32.3 mmol) was condensed into the reactor.
- the ice bath was removed and the reactor heated to 60 °C and stirred for 27 hours.
- the internal yield of the reaction was determined to be 80% by use of the octanophenone internal standard (12.2: 1 lineanbranched isomer by GC).
- the pressure was released and the crude mixture removed from the reactor.
- the mixture was concentrated by rotary evaporation and sodium hydroxide (10 wt%, 50 mL) was added.
- a 2 L autoclave reactor was charged with toluene (716.45 g), methyl 3-mercapto- propionate (187.78 g, 1562.6 mmol), and a-azobisisobutyronitrile (12.890 g, 78.500 mmol).
- the reactor was sealed and pressurized with nitrogen (-100 psig) three times to purge the system of air.
- 3,3,3-Trifluoropropene (153.20 g, 1595.0 mmol) was added via transfer cylinder at 12 °C (cold water bath). The reaction was heated to 80 °C and stirred for 21 hours. The reaction was allowed to cool to room temperature and vacuum transferred out of the reactor.
