Description
SPECIFICATION
A process for the activation of carboxylic acids
The invention relates to a process for the activation of carboxylic acids which is useful for the subsequent conversion of said carboxylic acids into their corresponding amides or esters.
The process is based on the reaction of said acids with P-trichlorinated N,N' - bis - (3 - oxazolydinyl - 2 one) phosphoranes.
These new phosphorus compounds respond to the following general formula
in which R1 and Rz may be atoms of hydrogen or alkyl groups having from one to four carbon atoms and X1, X2 and X3 are preferably chlorine or any substituent introduced by nucleophilic substitution thereof, such as: bromine, cyano, iodine, do methyl formamide, dimethylacetamide, etc. When X1 = X2 =
X3 = Cl,thecompounds respond to the following general formula:
in which R, and R2 are as defined hereinabove.
In order to simplify the notation of the 2 oxazolidinone groups, they will be abbreviated with the letters OXA, the compounds of the general formula la, object of the invention, derived from the general formula I, being represented by the following expression to which reference may be made:
(OXA)2 - P - (Cl)3 The process of the invention is characterised fundamentally by comprising the following steps::
a) reacting one equivalent of a 2 - oxazolidinone of the general formula
in which R1 and R2 are a group selected from among hydrogen and alkyl groups having from one to four carbon atoms, in an inert solvent with at least one half equivalent of phosphorus pentacloride, at a temperature lying between -15"C and + 1 000C, to give P - trichlorinated N,N' - bis - 3(oxazolydinyl - 2 one) phosphoranes of the formula
in which R1 and R2 are likewise a group selected from among hydrogen and alkyl groups having from one to four carbon atoms;;
b) adding thereafter a salt of the carboxylic acid to be activated, and
c) treating the mixture resulting from the activation reaction with a compound of the group comprising compounds with an amine function and compounds with hydroxyl function, to produce an amide or an ester, respectively.
According to a further feature of the invention, R1 and R2 are hydrogen and the carboxylic acid salt is a tertiary organic base salt.
According to yet a further feature of the invention,
R1 and R2 are hydrogen; the salt of the carboxylic acid to be activated is a triethylamine salt; and the compound with amine function is selected from among the group including 6 - aminopenicillanic acid, 7 - aminocephalosporanic acid, 7 aminodesacetoxycephalosporanic acid, 3 - su bstituted 7 - amino - 83 - cephem - 4 - carboxylic acid and their corresponding esters.
Preferably, according to the invention, one of the compounds from the group comprising methylene chloride, chloroform, nitromethane and acetonitrile is used as inert solvent, either alone, or in combination.
The interest of these new formula I compounds is based on the fact that their surprising capacity to activate the carboxylic acid and amine functions has just been discovered and they are, therefore, valuable reactants reagents in synthesis applied to industrial processes, an example thereof being the fields of penicillins, cephalosporins, esters of therapeutical value in human and veterinary medicine, etc.
The said family of formula I compounds is prepared by the sequence shown in Scheme A via two alternative routes, differing from one another in the isolation of the N - trichlorophosphonium - 2 oxazolidinone or the direct use with two moles of
OXA for one of phosphorus pentachloride.
SCHEME A
where Nu is a nucieophilic substituent.
One practical way of preparing (OXA)2 - P - (Cl)3 comprises reacting a solution of two equivalents of 2 - oxazolidinone with one mole of phosphorus pentachloride in an inert solvent, conducting the reaction at room temperature (20-25"C) for 24 hours. A particularly appropriate solvent is methylene chloride. Thereafter, the solvent is driven off at reduced pressure to give (OXA)2 - P - (Cl)3 with a virtually quantitative yield. In all cases, it is advisable to operate under strictly an hydros conditions.
In view of the characteristics of the formula I compounds, their "in situ" preparation is recommended.
All these compounds are potential, highly effective reactants, the results of which are reflected in
Scheme B. To facilitate the understanding of the matter, this Scheme will be limited to the (OXA)2 - P (Cl)3 of formula la, although the results given here are extrapolatable to the remaining formula I compounds.
SCHEME B a) Reaction with carboxylic acids
the Figures in brackets ( ) indicate the number of reacting or resulting equivalents.
In certain cases, the formation of the 2 ester of oxazolidinone, also a reactive compound (Spanish patent no 444.470) is detected.
If one chlorine atom in the (OXA)3 - P - (Cl)3 is substituted by a dimethylformamide type nucleophilic substituent, the second stage is made impossible and constitutes a new process for the preparation of acid chlorides.
b) Reaction with amines:
Amides may also be prepared by previously activating the amine function and then adding the carboxylic acid. The reaction may possibly take place through the formation of a - P = N -. In this case, the yields are inferior to those obtained in a).
To sum up, it may be said that it is possible to activate 2 moles of carboxylic acid, one in the form of acid chloride and the other in the form of acyloxphosphoramide, with one mole of formula la compound.
One of the desirable ways of conducting the process in practice, consists of adding a solution of the triethylamine salt of the carboxylic acid over a suspension containing the compound to be acylated with triethylamine, which acts as acceptor of the protons released.
It has been confirmed thatfor the object of the invention no limitations or exceptions for the reaction between a carboxylic acid salt and (OXA)2 - P (Cl)3, the following compounds having shown themselves to be usable: 2 - thienylacetic acid, 3 thienylacetic acid, cyanacetic acid, 4 - pyridinmercaptoacetic acid, 1 - (H) - tetrazolylacetic acid, alpha formyloxyphenylacetic acid, alpha - methoxyimino 2 - furylacetic acid, trifluoromethyl - mercaptoacetic acid, mandilic acid, monophenyl phenyl - malonate, mono -5 - indamyl phenylmalonate, alpha azidophenyl acetic acid, 3(2 - chlorophenyl) - 5 methyl - isoxazolyl - 4 - carboxylic acid, 3(2,6 - dich lorophenyl) - 5 - methyl - isoxazolyl - 4 - carboxylic acid, 3(2,6 - chloro - fluorophenyl) - 5 - methyl - isoxazolyl - 4 - carboxylic acid, phenylisoxazolylcarboxylic acid, cyclohexadinylacetic acid, methoxyacetic acid, 4 - methyl - 1,2,5 - oxadiazolyl - 3 - acetic acid, methylmercaptoacetic acid, alpha - sulphophenylace tic acid, monophenyl 2 - thienylmalonate, cyanomethylmercaptoacetic acid, alpha - sulphoisobutoxyphenylacetic acid. In general, acids with an aromatic ring, such as phenyl, naphthyl, tolyl, xylyl, mesityl or heterocylic groups with one or various heteroatoms such as furane, thiophen, pyrrol, pyrazole, oxadiazole, thiatriazole, imidazole, triazole, thiazole, isodiazole, oxazole, isoxazole, thiadiazole, oxatriazole, tetrazole, pyridine, pyrazine, pyrimidine, pyridazine, benzothiophen, ben zofurane, indole, indazole, benzoimidazole, ben- zothiazole, benzothiadiazole, benzoxazole, quinoline, isoquinoline, quinoxaline, quinazoline, imidazolidine, among others, may be used.The aliphatic, aromatic, heterocyclic residue of these acids may support one or several substituents such as, for example, the halogens, hydroxy, mercapto, carboxyl, alkyl, alkoxy, alkylthio, nitro, sulfo, alkylamino, dialkylamino, cyano, arylcarbonyloxy, arylalkanoyloxy. When the substituents are hydroxy, carboxy and amino, they have a protector group which is eliminated by applying the usual methods.
The preferred organic bases are the tertiary bases which may also be used in the form of salts of weak acids, such a pivalic acid or 2 - ethylhexanoic acid, of triethylamine, tributylamine, tripropylamine, picolines, lutidines, cholidines, quinoleins, dimethylaniline and diethylaniline. Nevertheless, the low industrial cost ones are chosen which are easy to eliminate so as to facilitate the isolation of the pure amide or ester.
The amino function compounds which are useful for the invention have not shown any limitations, both with the sterically hindered ones and with those of lower basicity belonging to the aromatic series. As was to be expected, there have been no difficulties with the aliphatic ones and in particular the heterobicyclic ones such as the 6 - aminopenicillanic acids (6 - APA) and the 7 - aminocephalosporanic acids (7 - ACA) are of great interest. In these cases, the carboxyl function is found in the form of salt of triethylamine, diethylamine, morpholine and dicyclohexylamine, or as a silyl, benzyl, phenacyl, phthalidic, trichloroethylester or aldehyde gemhydroxyl semi - esters, namely, gem - diacycloxy derivative of aldehydes.
The C - 3' substituents of the 7 - aminocephalosporanic acids may be selected from among the group comprising, methyl, acyloxymethyl, alkoxymethyl, formyl, azidomethyl, chloromethyl, formylidene alkyl amino, 5 - tertbutoxycar bonylaminomethyl - 1,3,4 - thiadiazolyl - 2 - mercaptomethyl, 5 - aminomethyl - 1,3,4 - thiadiazolyl - 2 mercaptomethyl, 5(3- methylureidomethyl) -1,3,4thiadiazolyl - 2 - mercaptomethyl, carbamoyloxymethyl alpha - methoxy- p- sulphoxy- cinnamoyloxymethyl chlorine and 1 - sulphomethyltet
razolyl - 5 - mercaptomethyl, among other similar heterocyclic groups such as pyridiminomethyl and pyrimidiniummethyl.
The amino function may be linked with a nitrogen atom with or without substituents, in the case ofhydrazine, phenylhydrazine and the like, with the process following under identical conditions.
The combination with the (OXA)2 - P - (Cl)3 is conducted in an inert solvent which is not critical forthe performance of the process. Of particular interest are
methylene chloride or mixtures thereof with nitromethane. Another appropriate binary system is methylene chloride/acetonitrile. The reaction of the (OXA)2 - P - (Cl)3 with the organic acid salt is effected at a temperature lying between -20 and +20"C, with stirring over a period of time ranging from 30 to 150 minutes. A solution containing the amine, the alcohol and triethylamine or an acceptor of the released protons is added to the solution or suspension containing the activated acid.
It should also be observed that the (OXA)2 - P - (Cl)3 reacts with alcohols and water in accordance with
Scheme C.
