Description

The present invention relates to a novel process for the preparation of 4-amino-3-oxo-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-l,2,4triazines.
The invention relates to a process for the preparation of a 5 compound of formula I H wherein R is hydrogen, C!-C6alkyl, C3-C6cycloalkyl, Cj-C,alkyl substituted by one or more halogen atoms or by from 1 to 3 radicals from the group C1-C3alkoxy, Cj-C3alkylthio and phenyl, phenyl or phenyl substituted by from 1 to 3 radicals from the group halogen, methyl, ethyl, methoxy, methylthio and nitro, which process comprises reacting with hydrazine hydrate a compound of formula II o wherein Rj is hydrogen, Cj-C^alkyl, C3-C6cycloalkyl, Cj-C,,alkyl substituted by from 1 to 9 chlorine atoms, Cj-C3alkoxy, Ci-C3alkylthio, Cj-C3alkylsulfinyl, Cx-C3alkylsulfonyl, phenyl, phenyl substituted by from 1 to 3 radicals from the group halogen, methyl, ethyl, methoxy, methylthio and nitro, or pyridyl, and R is as defined above; and subjecting the resulting compound of formula III Η to hydrolysis, preferably acid hydrolysis.
The present process is preferably used for the preparation of compounds of formula I wherein R is methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, tert-butyl or cyclopropyl. The process is preferably carried out using compounds of formula II wherein Rj is Ci-C^alkyl as starting materials.
The aminotriazine derivatives of formula I prepared according to the invention can be used as intermediates for the preparation of 4—[(pyrid-3-yl)-methyleneamino]- or 4-[(pyrid-3yl)-methylamino]-3-oxo-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-l,2,4-triazines, which are distinguished by pronounced insecticidal and acaricidal activity. Such pesticidal compounds are, for example, 4-[(pyrid-3-yl)-methyleneamino]-3-oxo-6-methyl-2,3,4,5tetrahydro-1,2,4-triazine, 4-[(pyrid-3-y1)-methyleneamino]3- oxo-6-cyclopropyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-l,2,4-triazine, 4— [(pyrid-3-yl)-methylamino]-3-oxo-6-isopropyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-l , 2 , 4-triazine and 4-[(pyrid-3-yl)-methylamino]-3-oxo6-tert-butyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-l,2,4-triazine. Such pesticidal compounds, their preparation and use are described in EP Patent Application 314 615.
The process according to the invention can be illustrated by the following reaction scheme, the radicals R and Rj being as defined above: ' 20 The first step (ring expansion) of the process according to the invention for the preparation of the compounds of formula I is usually carried out under normal pressure and preferably in a solvent. The temperature is from +15 to 120°C, preferably from +20 to 100°C. Suitable solvents are, for example, water, nitriles, such as acetonitrile, alcohols, dioxane or tetrahydrofuran. The subsequent hydrolysis of the acylamino compounds of formula III to the free amino compounds of formula I is preferably carried out with inor10 ganic acids, such as IN hydrochloric acid to cone, hydrochloric acid or IN to ION sulfuric acid, at temperatures of from 0 to 120°C, especially from +20 to 100'C, in an aqueous medium or in organic solvents, such as alcohols, dioxane, tetrahydrofuran or nitriles.
The 1,3,4-oxadiazolin-2-on-3-yl-ketones of formula II used as starting materials according to the invention are novel.
They can be prepared analogously to known procedures, for example as follows (see, for example, EP Patent Application No. 314 615): u II X -CH2-C -R -II (V) In the above formulae IV and V, R and R, are as defined above and X is a halogen atom, preferably chlorine or bromine. The above process for the preparation of the oxadiazolinone ketones of formula II is generally carried out under normal pressure in the presence of a base and in a solvent. The temperature is from 0 to +150 °C, preferably from +20 to 100°C. Suitable bases are organic and inorganic bases, for example trimethylamine, alcoholates, sodium hydroxide or sodium hydride. Suitable solvents are, inter alia. alcohols, halogenated hydrocarbons, for example chloroform, nitriles, for example acetonitrile, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, dimethyl sulfoxide, dimethylformamide or water.
The oxadiazolinones of formula IV [see EP Patent Application No. 321 833; J. Pharm. Soc. Japan 76 . 1300-1303 (1956); Vol. 82., 121-123 (1949)] and their preparation, - and also the haloketones of formula V, are for the most part known.
It is known from Liebigs Ann. Chem. 749. 125 ff. (1971) that 4-amino-6-phenyl-3-oxo-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-l,2,4-triazines can be obtained starting from 2-amino-5-methyl-3-phenacyl-l,3,4oxadiazolium bromide by reaction with hydrazine hydrate. The main disadvantage of this process is that it is limited to the preparation of 1,2,4-triazine rings that are phenylsubstituted in the 6-position; in addition, this process comprises several steps and its yield is poor. Furthermore, it is known from EP Patent Application No. 314 615 to prepare 4- amino-3-oxo-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-l,2,4-triazines that are substituted in the 6-position, by reacting corresponding - trifluoromethyl-1,3,4-oxadiazolin-2-on-3-yl-ketones with excess hydrazine in a one-step reaction: wherein A may be an unsubstituted or substituted alkyl or aryl substituent. The disadvantages of this process are primarily the high cost of the trifluoroacetic acid ethyl ester required for preparing the trifluoroacethydrazide, the instability of that trifluoroacethydrazide at room temperature, and the not very high yield in the reaction of the trifluoroacethydrazide with phosgene in water (see Helv.
Chim. Acta 1986. 333) to prepare the 5-trifluoromethyl1.3.4- oxadiazol-2(3H)-one from which the 5-trifluoromethyl1.3.4- oxadiazolin-2-on-3-yl-ketones of formula Ila above (starting compound) are obtained. Moreover, the reaction according to EP Patent Application No. 314 615 inevitably produces toxic trifluoroacetic acid derivatives as a byproduct, which present ecological problems and require a considerable outlay for their disposal.
In contrast, within the scope of the present invention it has now surprisingly been found that the presence of a 5-CF3 group in the starting compounds of formula II is not necessary for the preparation of the 4-amino-3-oxo-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-l,2,4-triazines of formula I by ring expansion. The present starting compounds of formula II, which contain one of the mentioned radicals Rx in the 5-position instead of the mentioned CF3 group, react readily with hydrazine hydrate to form the acylamino compounds of formula III, from which, however, the radical -CO-Rj must subsequently be removed by acid hydrolysis to obtain the compounds of formula I. With r>'·' the process according to the invention, the disadvantages of < the procedures hitherto available are eliminated since, in the process according to the invention, inexpensive and j readily available starting compounds can be used, high yields are obtained and, instead of toxic trifluoroacetic acid derivatives, ecologically harmless carboxylic acid derivatives, for example acetic acid, are formed as a by-product.
The compounds of the formula H wherein R and Rj are as defined in claim 1, with the proviso that in compounds of formula III wherein R is phenyl, Rj is other than methyl, n-butyl and phenyl, are novel, and the present invention relates also to them.
Example 1: Preparation of the starting compound 2,3-Dihydro-5-methyl-2-oxo-l.3.4-oxadiazole-3-acetone g of 2,3-dihydro-5-methyl-2-oxo-l,3,4-oxadiazole (prepared in customary manner from acethydrazide and phosgene) are added to a solution of 2.3 g of sodium in 100 ml of methanol, the mixture is stirred for a short time and then the solvent is removed in vacuo at a bath temperature of 60°C. The sodium salt so formed is introduced in portions into a solution of 9.2 g of chloroacetone and 0.2 g of tetrabutylammonium bromide in 50 ml of chloroform, and the reaction mixture is stirred for 4 hours at 65°C. After the salts have been filtered off, the solvent is removed in vacuo at a bath temperature of 50°C. The residue that remains is recrystallised from tert-butyl methyl ether, yielding the title ► compound having a melting point of 55-57°C. f The following compounds of formula II are also prepared in a 5 manner corresponding to that described above: phys. b.p.
