Description

SPECIFICATION The production of carboxylic acids containing o; (w-l) dihydroxy carboxylic acid as a chief ingredient.
This invention relates to a method for the production of carboxylic acids containing o, (0)-1 )-dihydroxy acid as a chief ingredient from alpha-olefins of C12 to C18 using a microorganism.
The (o, (w-1)-dihydroxy carboxylic acids referred to herein and in the claims means carboxylic acids having the formula 1 in which n is an integer of from 12 to 18.
HOOC(CH2)n.3CH(OH)CH2OH (1) The method of the invention, however, produces a mixture of acids containing more or less of the formulae 2 to 5, HOCC(CH2)n.2COOH (2) HOOC(CH2)n 3CH(OH)COOH (3) HOOC(CH2)n 2CH2OH (4) HOOC(CH2)n 3CH(OH)CH2OCH3 (5) in which n is an integer of from 12 to 18.
Of the carboxylic acids expressed in the equations from (1) to (5) shown above, this invention produces carboxylic acid of (1) having o,o-l -dihydroxy carboxylic acid as a chief ingredient of the mixture, but the production of at least one or more from (2) to (5) is/are also included.
Heretofore there have been some reports published on the productions of various compounds from alpha-olefins as substrate; for example, Japanese patent publication 38-15608 discloses the production of dicarboxylic acid from corresponding alpha-olefin and Japanese patent Kokal 51-51390, the production of alpha-hydroxy carboxylic acid respectively. Also J. Bruyn etc. report on the on the production of 1,2-hexadecenediol from 1-hexadecene (J. Bruyn Koninkl. Ned. Akad. Watenschap Proc. Ser., 57c41 (1954); J.E. Stewart. W.R. Finnerty, R.E. Kallia and D.P. Stevenson, Science, 132 1251 (1960); T. Ishikawa and J.W.
Foster, Nature, 192 892 (1961)).
However, the production of any substance, except dicarboxylic acid, which possesses a functional group such as carboxylic group or hydroxyl group at the terminal and adjacent carbon of the chain is not mentioned in these reports.
Generally, intra-molecular condensation and inter-molecular condensation tend to occur in long-chain hydrocarbons possessing a carboxylic group/groups at a terminal or terminals of the chains and a hydroxy group/groups at a terminal, terminals or near the terminals. Specifically, long-chain hydrocarbons which possess methylene groups in their carbon chains are promising raw materials of polymers, medicine, anti-corrosive agents and perfumery, and especially, 15-hydroxypentadecanoic acid is useful as a raw material of synthesis of large cyclic lactone which is an expensive perfume.
It is, therefore, an object of this invention to provide a process for producing carboxylic acids having o, (o-l )-dihydroxy carboxylic acid as a chief ingredient.
According to the present ivention there is provided a method of producing a carboxylic acid mixture containing o, ((0-1 )-dihydroxy carboxylic acid as the main component, comprising cultivating a microorganism of the genus Candida or cells thereof with an a-olefin of from 12 to 18 carbon atoms.
The alpha-olefin used in this invention is, preferably a straight chain hydrocarbon having 12 to 18 carbon atoms. Selection of carbon number depends on the desired carboxylic acid but it is possible to use simultaneously alpha-olefins having two or more different carbon numbers.
The microorganism utilized in this invention belongs to the Candida genus and is able to assimilate or react on alpha-olefins to produce carboxylic acids have o, ((0-1 )-dihydroxy carboxylic acid as a chief ingredient as shown in the above formula (1) or to produce along with said (1) at least one from the compounds expressed in the above mentioned formulae (2) to (5).
Candida tropicalis BR-254 used in the examples of this invention which will be described below has been deposited with Fermentation Research Institute, Agency of Industrial Science and Technology with a deposit number FERM P-4604.
Following are the microbiological properties of this strain: (1) Size and shape: Short oval (4x8)"x(5-11), Forming of spores Negative (2) Cultural characteristics: Streak culture on an agar medium containing glucose, yeast extract and peptone: The colony is light yellowish white, dull and smooth on the surface.
(3) Fermentation of sugars: Glucose + Trehalose + Galactose + Lactose Sucrose + Melibiose Maltose + Raffinose Cellobiose - Melezitose Inulin (4) Assimilation of carbon compounds: Glucose + Ethanol + Galactose + Glycerol + D-Ribose - Erythrytol + L-Rhamnose - Ribotol + L-Sorbose + Galactitol Sucrose + D-Mannitol + Maltose + D-Glunitol + Cellobiose - a-Methyl-D-Glucoside + Melibiose - Salicin + Raffinose - DL-Lactic acid 42 Inulin - Succinic acid + Soluble starch + Citric acid + D-Xylose + Inositol L-Arabinose + D-Arabinose (5) Assimilation of KNO3: Negative (6) Vitamin requirement: Biotin (7) Growth in a medium lacking vitamin:Weak (8) NaCltolerance: 11-13% (9) Maximum temp. for growth: 41 - 43"C (10) Guanosine-cytosine content: 35.3% Pre-cultivation of said microorganism may be carried out with assimilable carbon source, for example, a-olefins, sugars and other carbon compounds to grow a cell mass and then the grown cells may be cultured in a medium with alpha-olefin as a substrate, or so called resting cell reaction may be carried out with the alpha-olefin as a substrate in a medium aerobically.
Carbon sources appropriate to a growth medium can include, besides alpha-olefin, glucose, sucrose, maltose, trehalose or substances containing these ingredients.
Nitrogen sources can include ammonium chloride, ammonium sulfate, ammonia in solution, urea, amino acids or substances containing these ingredients.
Trace growth stiumlants and minerals needed for growth can include zinc sulfate, ferrous sulfate, magnesium sulfate, manganese sulfate, potassium phosphate and sodium phosphate as minerals and vitamins and nucleic acids as trace growth stimulants. In addition, compounds such as peptone and corn steep liquor may be included. In short, the media should contain assimilable and nutrient substances selected in a wide range for the production of the desired product. Amounts of these additives can be appropriately determined according to the well known method employed for fermentation.
In this invention, said microorganism is cultured in the medium described above at a pH about 7 and temperature of about 30"C for 72 to 96 hours aerobically by shaking so that said microorganism can contact the substrate and other components of the medium sufficiently. When foaming is observed during the cultivation, an appropriate amount of defoaming agent is added to control foaming and prevent cells from mixing in foams. The thus produced products contain (o,(u)-1)-dihydroxy carboxylic acid as shown in formula 1 above and in addition, one or more components shown in formulae 2 to 5 above.
In order to separate and recover each compound from the mixture of products the following procedure may be used: cells are removed from the mixture of the cultivation or reaction products and resultant liquid is adjusted to pH 2, the obtained white crystalline precipitate is methylated and separated into individual compounds through a silica gel column or by fractional distillation.
The present invention will now be described by way of example.
