Description

The procesa for the preparation of l-alkyl-3 hydroxy-5-chloro-1 ,2 , 4-triazoleB C:- 42621 The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of 1,2,4-triazole derivatives which are of particular importance as intermediates for, e.g. the producing of active substances for pest-control agents.
It is known to produce 1,2,4-triazole derivatives by a process described in German patent specification No. 1.940.367. In this process an N-chlorocarbonyliminocarbonic acid ester chloride of the formula R- c wherein R is an alkyl group or an optionally substituted phenyl group is reacted with a substituted hydrazine, for example an alkylhydrazine in the presence of a base, for example excess hydrazine, to obtain the desired 1,2 ,4-triazoles .
If according to this process a N-chlorocarbonyliminocarbonic acid phenyl ester is reacted with excess alkylhydrazine, for example methylhydrazine , there is obtained a l-alkyl-3-phenoxy-1,2 ,4-triazole-5-one which can also be considered as the tautomeric l-alkyl-3-phenoxy-5-hydroxy-l, 2 ,4-triazole „ According to. this known reaction it was to be expected that the reaction of an alkyl hydrazine with N-chlorocarbonylisocyanidedichloride which contains an additional chlorine instead of the alkoxy or phenoxy group present in the N-chlorocarbonyliminocarbonic acid esters of the above formula would result in the formation of a l-alkyl-3-chloro-5- hydroxy-1,2 ,4-triazole.
Surprisingly, it has now been found that lralkyl-3-hydroxy-5-chloro-l,2,4-triazoles can be prepared by reacting an alkylhydrazine hydrochloride with N-chlorocarbonylisocyanidedichloride.
The 1 , 2, -triazoles prepared according to the / invention have the formula wherein represents a straight chain or branched alkyl radical having 1 to 6 carbon atoms.
Applicable alkyl radicals are, in particular, methyl, ethyl and n-propyl, isopropyl, n-, i- , sec.-, tert. -butyl, n-pentyl, n-hexyl.
Of particular importance is the preparation by the process according to the invention of the compound of formula I wherein represents isopropyl.
The compounds of formula I are prepared according to the invention by reaction of an alkylhydrazine hydrochloride of the formula R1-NH-NH2 · H CI (II) with N-chlorocarbonylisocyanidedichloride of the formula in formula II has the meaning given under formula I.
The reaction according to the invention can be performed in the presence or absence of solvents or diluents. For the obtainment of economic yields, it has proved advantageous for the reaction to be performed in the presence of a solvent or diluent.
Suitable solvents and/or diluents are, e.g. aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons or halogenated hydrocarbons, such as hexane, petroleum ether, chloroform, methylene chloride, halogenated ethanes, benzene, toluene, xylenes, ethers and ethereal compounds such as dialkyl ether, 1, 2-dimethoxyethane, .dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, N,N-dialkylated amides such as dimethylformamide, sulphoxides such as dimethylsulphoxide, nitriles such as acetonitrile, etc., or mixtures of such solvents .with each other; for the cyclisation reaction, it is also possible to use water or hydrous solvents. Particularly suitable are also two- phase reaction media consisting of water and an organic solvent not miscible with water, such as chloroform, methylene chloride and toluene.
The process according to the invention is performed under normal pressure and in a temperature range of -30 to 150° C, preferably between 0 and 80°C.
The reactants are used in the process in equimolecular amounts, whereby an excess of the one or of the other reaction partner can contribute towards- the completion of the reaction.
The compounds of formula I prepared according to the invention are* of importance as intermediates in the preparation of pesticides. They can be converted, in particular, by reaction with phosphoric acid ester haiides and thiophosphoric acid ester haiides into phosphoric acid esters and thiophosphoric acid esters, respectively, of the formula wherein Z represents oxygen or sulphur, 1*2 represents alkoxy, alkylthio,. amino, or mono- or dial amino, and represents alkyl, alkoxy, alkylthio, phenyl, phenoxy, aminOj^mono- or dialkylamino , and has "the meaning given under formula I.
These compounds have an excellent insecticidal action.
Preparation of l-isopropyl-5-chloro-3-hydroxy-l , 2 ,4- triazole 16.0 g of N-chlorocarbonylisocyanidedichloride is added dropwise at 20°C, with stirring, to 11.0 g of isopropylhydrazine-hydrochloride suspended in 100 ml of acetonitrile . The reaction proceeds exothermically and is controlled with an ice bath. The mixture is subsequently refluxed for 2 hours, with hydrochloric acid gas being released. On cooling to room temperature, there is precipitated a crystalline product; this is then filtered off, and dried in vacuo to yield an amount of 5.2 g. The mother liquor is concentrated in vacuo, and the residue boiled with 50 ml of water for 5 minutes . The precipitated product is again filtered off, and dried in vacuo to obtain an additional yield of 4 g of the compound of the formula having a melting point of 101 - 103°C.
Example 2 A solution of 5.5 g (0.05 mole) of isopropylhydrazine-hydrochloride in 80 ml of water is added dropwise, in the course of 2 hours, to a solution cooled to -5°C of 8.0 g (0.05 mole) of N-chlorocarbonylisocyanide-dichloride in 20 ml of toluene, with the temperature being maintained between -5°C and -10°C. The whole is subsequently concentrated to dryness by evaporation, and the residue extracted with 50 ml of ethanol. The resulting ethanolic solution is again concentrated to dryness by evaporation, and the residue recrystallised from 20 ml of water to obtain 2.39 g of l-isopropyl-3-hydroxy-5-chloro-l,2,4-triazole, M.P. 101 - 102°C. - 2A - Example 3 ^ 240 g (1.5 moles) of gaseous N-chlorocarbonylisocyanide-dichloride is introduced, in the course of 10 hours, into a solution cooled to -10°C of 110.5 g (1 mole) of isopropylhydrazine-hydrochloride in 250 ml of water.
After completion of the addition, the cooling bath is removed, and stirring maintained for a further 15 hours at room temperature. The residue obtained after concentration of the acid solution by evaporation to dryness is suspended in 150 ml of water; the pH-value of the suspension is adjusted to 4 by addition of sodium hydroxide solution, and the suspension then filtered: the resulting yield is 87.5 g of crude l-isopropyl-3-hydroxy-5-chloro-l, 2,4-triazole, M.P. 92-98°C, which melts at 101-103°C after recrystallisation from water. 7 - Jri - The following additional compounds are prepared in an analogous manner: Furthe substituted hydrazines suitable as starting materials for the process according to the invention are, for example: methylhydrazine, (3-cyano-ethyl) -hydrazine .
