Abstract

Compounds of the Vitamin A series are obtained by condensing b -ionone with an e - halo - b - methylsorbic acid ester of the formula: <FORM:0811697/IV (b)/1> (wherein X is a halogen atom, e.g. a bromine atom, and COOR is a carboxylic acid ester group, R being e.g. an alkyl radical having 1 to 4 carbon atoms or a benzyl or hexyl group) in the presence of an active metal such as magnesium, zinc, cadmium or lithium (preferably zinc), splitting off water from the resulting hydroxy-ester of formula: <FORM:0811697/IV (b)/2> and, if desired, reducing the Vitamin A acid ester thus obtained to the Vitamin A alcohol. The esters are obtained as mixtures of stereoisomers (the ratio depending on the dehydration method used), which may be interconverted by the usual methods. In an example, b -ionone is condensed in tetrahydrofuran with e -bromo-b -methyl-sorbic acid ethyl ester in the presence of iodine-activated zinc, and the resulting hydroxy-ester is dehydrated by heating in benzene with p-toluenesulphonic acid. It is stated that the mainly trans-Vitamin A ester so formed may be saponified to all-trans-Vitamin A acid, or reduced, e.g. with calcium aluminium hydride to Vitamin A alcohol. e - Bromo - b - methylsorbic acid is obtained by the action of phosphorus tribromide on the corresponding hydroxy compound.
