Abstract

The invention comprises Vitamin A2 acetate and a process for the production of Vitamin A2 esters by condensing 4-[21,61,61-trimethyl -cyclohexadiene - (11,31) - yl - (11)] - 2 - methyl - buten - (2) - al - (1) with 1 - hydroxy - 3 - methylpenten - (2) - ine - (4) in a metallo - organic reaction, partially hydrogenating the triple bond of the 1,6-dihydroxy-3,7-dimethyl-9-[21,61,61 -trimethyl - cyclohexadiene - (11,31) - yl - (11)]-nonadien-(2,7)-ine-(4) so obtained, esterifying the resulting nonatriene by treatment with an acylating agent and dehydrating or splitting off acid from (while simultaneously effecting allyl rearrangement) the ester so obtained. The reduction and esterification stages may be effected in reverse order. In the metalloorganic reaction there may be used an alkali compound, e.g. lithium or phenyl lithium, or alkali magnesium halide, e.g. ethyl magnesium bromide. The reduction may be effected by catalytic hydrogenation, e.g. in the presence of palladium, or by means of lithium aluminium hydride. Esterification may be effected with an acid chloride or anhydride. The final dehydration or splitting off of acid may be effected with phosphorus oxychloride, pyridine hydrochloride or by boiling with a strong organic acid, e.g. phthalic acid. Alternatively, splitting off of acid may be effected by treatment with aqueous hydrohalic acid and treating the reaction product with water or a basic compound. The Vitamin A2 esters thus obtained may be saponified to free Vitamin A2 and reesterified. In examples 4-[21,61,61-trimethyl -cyclohexadiene - (11,31) - yl - (11)] - 2 - methyl - buten - (2) - al - (1) is condensed with 1-hydroxy - 3 - methyl - penten - (2) - ine - (4) to produce 1,6 - dihydroxy - 3,7 - dimethyl - 9 - [21,61, 61 - trimethyl - cyclohexadiene - (11,31) - yl-(1)1]-nonadiene-2,7-ine-4, which compound is hydrogenated to produce the corresponding (2,4,7)-nonatriene, which compound is esterified to produce 1-acetoxy-6-hydroxy- and 1,6-diacetoxy - 3,7 - dimethyl - 9 - [21,61,61 - trimethyl-cyclohexadiene (11,31) - yl - (11)] - nonatriene - (2,4,7) which compounds are dehydrated and deacetylated respectively. Starting compound. 4 - [21,61,61 - Trimethyl -cyclohexadiene - (11,31) - yl - (11)] - 2 - methyl - buten - (2) - al - (1) is obtained by brominating 4 - [21,61,61 - trimethyl - cyclohexen - (11) - yl - (11)] 2 - methyl - buten - (2) - al - (1), splitting HBr from the product to form 4-[21,61,61-trimethyl - cyclohex - 21 - ylidene - (11)] 2 - methylbuten - (2) - al - (1), which compound is treated with isopropenyl acetate to produce 4-[21,61,61-trimethyl - cyclohexadiene - (11,31) - yl - (11)] - 2 - methyl - 1 - acetoxy - butadiene - (1,3) which is hydrolysed.
