The following reaction scheme illustrates the synthesis
Figure img00020001

Les conditions de réaction dans lesquelles s'effectue l'hydroformylation - donc la réaction du propène substitué avec l'hydrogène et le monoxyde de carbone - peuvent varier entre de larges limites. La température de réaction est en général comprise entre BO et 1500 c, elle est de préférence de 100 - 120 C la pression entre 150 et 300 bars, de préférence à 250 - 290 bars. On utilise comme catalyseur d'hydroformylation le cobalt, mais en particulier le rhodium. On ajoute les catalyseurs au méiane de réaction sous forme des métaux ou de composés métalliques. Il est particulièrement avantageux de choisir des composés qui sont solubles dans les milieux de réaction, comme par exemple les sels d'acide carboxyliques supé- rieurs.Selon un mode de mise en oeuvre préféré de 1thydroformylation, on opère en présence de composés qui forment des complexes avec les métaux-carbonyles se formant dans les conditions de réaction. Des composés complexants de ce type sont, par exemple, les triaLkyl- ou triarylphosphines. On les utilise avantageusement en excès, c'est- & dire en quantité qui dépasse celle nécessaire pour la formation du complexe. Il s'est révélé avantageux d'utiliser unexcès de 20 à 30 fois molaire. The reaction conditions in which hydroformylation takes place - hence the reaction of substituted propene with hydrogen and carbon monoxide - can vary within wide limits. The reaction temperature is in general between BO and 1500 c, it is preferably 100 - 120 C the pressure between 150 and 300 bar, preferably 250 - 290 bar. As the hydroformylation catalyst, cobalt, but especially rhodium, is used. The catalysts are added to the reaction mixture in the form of metals or metal compounds. It is particularly advantageous to choose compounds which are soluble in the reaction media, for example the higher carboxylic acid salts. According to a preferred embodiment of the hydroformylation, the reaction is carried out in the presence of compounds which form complexes with the metal carbonyls forming under the reaction conditions. Complexing compounds of this type are, for example, trialkyl- or triarylphosphines. They are advantageously used in excess, that is to say in an amount which exceeds that necessary for the formation of the complex. It has proved advantageous to use 20 to 30 times molar excess.

Le produit d'hydroformylation est isolé ou mélange réactionnel de manière connue, par exemple par distillation après séparation du catalyseur. Sans effectuer d'opérations de purification particulières, on fait ensuite réagir le 3-benzylbutanal avec le formaldéhyde ou une substance produisant du formaldéhyde comme, par exemple le paraformaldéhyde, en présence de quantités catalytiques d'une amine secondaire. Il se forme le 2-methylene-3-benzyl-butanal (formule 1). Le rapport molaire du catalyseur au 3-ben2ylbutanal est de 0,025 - 0,050 pour 1, on utilise de préférence la di-n-butylamine comme catalyseur, la réaction est effectuée sous pression normale a 90 - l000c.  The hydroformylation product is isolated or reacted in known manner, for example by distillation after separation of the catalyst. Without performing particular purification operations, 3-benzylbutanal is then reacted with formaldehyde or a formaldehyde-producing substance such as, for example, paraformaldehyde, in the presence of catalytic amounts of a secondary amine. 2-Methylene-3-benzyl-butanal (Formula 1) is formed. The molar ratio of catalyst to 3-benzylbutanal is 0.025 to 0.050 to 1, di-n-butylamine is preferably used as a catalyst, the reaction is carried out under normal pressure at 90 to 1000 ° C.

L'hydrogénatlon du composé méthylé 1 s'effectue de manière connue par l'hydrogène en présence de catalyseurs appropriés. The hydrogenation of the methylated compound 1 is carried out in a known manner by hydrogen in the presence of suitable catalysts.

Selon les conditions d'hydrogénation, on obtient, soit l'aldéhyde saturé, le 2-méthyl-3-benzylbutanal (formule 2), soit l'alcool saturé, le 2-mdthyl-3-benzyl-l-butanol (formule 3).Depending on the hydrogenation conditions, either saturated aldehyde, 2-methyl-3-benzylbutanal (formula 2) or saturated alcohol, 2-methyl-3-benzyl-1-butanol (formula 3) are obtained. ).

Les catalyseurs aux métaux nobles, en particulier les catalyseurs au palladiuF sont appropries pour la préparation de l'aldéhyde saturé (formule 2). On les utilise sous forme de catalyseurs sur support, par exemple en quantités ds 0,1 a 2 % en poids, de prefé- rence d'environ 1 % en poids, par rapport 9 l'aldéhyde insaturé, avec le charbon actif ou l'oxyde d'aluminium comme support. La réaction se déroule des températures de 80 - 1300C, de préférence a 90 - 110 C et sous une pression d'hydrogène de 1 - 30 bars. The noble metal catalysts, in particular the palladiuF catalysts are suitable for the preparation of the saturated aldehyde (formula 2). They are used in the form of supported catalysts, for example in amounts of 0.1 to 2% by weight, preferably about 1% by weight, based on the unsaturated aldehyde, activated carbon or magnesium oxide. aluminum oxide as support. The reaction proceeds at temperatures of 80.degree. To 1300.degree. C., preferably at 90.degree.-110.degree. C. and at a hydrogen pressure of 1 to 30 bars.

Pour l'obtention de l'alcool saturé (formule 3), on hydrogène catalytiquement l'aldéhyde insaturé de manière également connue, l'hydrogène étant fixe selon une reaction å un ou deux stades. Dans l'hydrogénation en un stade, on fait réagir simultanément le groupe carbonyle et la double liaison avec l'hydrogène et on obtient directement l'alcool sature 9 partir de l'aldéhyde insaturé. Dans le cas de cette forme d'hydrogénation, on opère avantageusement en phase liquide en presence d'un agent diluant, par exemple le cyclohexane ou d'autres hydrocarbures ou en présence de monoalcools, par exemple 2-éthylhexanol, ou du produit final lui-meme. On utilise avantageusement comme catalyseurs des catalyseurs au nickel ayant une teneur en nickel de 20 à 100 % en poids, par rapport aux catalyseurs. On consi dere de préférence couve supports la terre d'infusoires ou l'oxyde d'aluminium. On opère habituellement dans un domaine de températures de 90 - 160 C et sous des pressions de 50 - 150 bars. Selon la teneur en nickel, on utilise 2 - 15 7. en poids de catalyseur, par rapport 9 l'aldéhyde insaturé
Dans le cas de l'hydrogénation en deux stades, après l'hydrogénation partielle en aldéhyde saturé decrite plus haut, on remplace le catalyseur au métal noble par un catalyseur au nickel.
In order to obtain the saturated alcohol (formula 3), the unsaturated aldehyde is also catalytically hydrogenated in a known manner, the hydrogen being fixed in one or two stages. In the one-stage hydrogenation, the carbonyl group and the hydrogen double bond are simultaneously reacted and the saturated alcohol is obtained directly from the unsaturated aldehyde. In the case of this form of hydrogenation, the reaction is advantageously carried out in the liquid phase in the presence of a diluent, for example cyclohexane or other hydrocarbons or in the presence of monoalcohols, for example 2-ethylhexanol, or of the final product. -even. Nickel catalysts having a nickel content of from 20 to 100% by weight, based on the catalysts, are advantageously used as catalysts. The diatomaceous earth or aluminum oxide is preferably coated. The operation is usually carried out in a temperature range of 90.degree. To 160.degree. C. and at pressures of 50.degree. To 150.degree. Depending on the nickel content, 2 - 15% by weight of catalyst is used, relative to the unsaturated aldehyde.
In the case of the two-stage hydrogenation, after partial hydrogenation to the saturated aldehyde described above, the noble metal catalyst is replaced with a nickel catalyst.

Dans l'hydrogénation de l'aldéhyde saturé en alcool, la présence d'un solvant n'est pas nécessaire pour l'obtention d 'un bon résultat d'hydrogénation. Selon la teneur en nickel, on utilise 2 - 15 X en poids de catalyseur, par rapport a l'aldéhyde saturé. L'hydrogénation est effectuée, selon I'activité du catalyseur, à des températures de 90 - 1600C et sous une pression d'hydrogène de 50 - 150 bars.In the hydrogenation of aldehyde saturated with alcohol, the presence of a solvent is not necessary for obtaining a good hydrogenation result. Depending on the nickel content, 2 - 15% by weight of catalyst is used, relative to the saturated aldehyde. The hydrogenation is carried out, according to the activity of the catalyst, at temperatures of 90.degree.-160.degree. C. and under a hydrogen pressure of 50-150 bar.

La purification des produits d'hydrogénation s'effectue par distillation fractionnée. The purification of the hydrogenation products is carried out by fractional distillation.

The compounds according to the invention find applications mainly as perfumes. They are characterized by particularly intense and persistent fragrant notes of high odor and high quality.

On a déja décrit dans la littérature quelques composés de structure semblable conne parfums. Ainsi, selon Arctander (Perfume and Flavor Chemicals, Nantclair 1969, Monographies 2172 et 2173), le 2-méthyl-4-phényl-butanal et le 3-méthyl-2-phényl-butanal possedent une odeur -fleurie, fruitée verte. Le 3-méthyl-4-phényl-valéralddhyde (Monographie 2204) a également une tendance parfumée dans la meme direction. Some compounds of similar structure with perfumes have already been described in the literature. Thus, according to Arctander (Perfume and Flavor Chemicals, Nantclair 1969, Monographs 2172 and 2173), 2-methyl-4-phenyl-butanal and 3-methyl-2-phenyl-butanal have a fruity, fruity-green odor. 3-methyl-4-phenyl-valeraldehyde (Monograph 2204) also has a scented tendency in the same direction.

Nais ces composés, en raison des procédés de prepa- ration coûteux, ne pouvaient pas trouver un domaine d'application important comme parfums. But these compounds, because of expensive preparation methods, could not find an important field of application as perfumes.

Les nouveaux composés ne présentent pas cette lacune. The new compounds do not present this gap.

Un autre avantage des nouveaux composés est leur bonne aptitudes se combiner en nouvelles nuances odorantes et leur particulière persistance. Another advantage of the new compounds is their good abilities to combine in new fragrant nuances and their particular persistence.

Les composés selon l'invention peuvent etre mélangés avec d'autres parfums dans les proportions les plus diverses pour donner des compositions odorantes. Mais, en général, la proportion des nouveaux parfums dans les compositions odorantes se situe entre 1 et 50 % en poids, par rapport b la composition totale. Ces compositions peuvent servir directement comme parfums, ou bien aussi parfumer des cosmétiques, tels que crèmes, lotions, eaux parfumées, aérosols, savons de toilette. The compounds according to the invention can be mixed with other fragrances in the most varied proportions to give fragrant compositions. In general, however, the proportion of new fragrances in the scented compositions is between 1 and 50% by weight, based on the total composition. These compositions can be used directly as perfumes, or also perfume cosmetics, such as creams, lotions, scented waters, aerosols, toilet soaps.

Les compositions peuvent aussi etre ajoutées à des produits techniques tels qu'agents de lavage et de nettoyage, agents désinfectants, agents de traitement des- textiles, etc., pour améliorer leur odeur. The compositions may also be added to technical products such as washing and cleaning agents, disinfectants, textile treatment agents, etc., to improve their odor.
