【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、医薬や農薬の原料として重要な光学活性アルコール類の製造方法に関するものであり、更に詳しくはラセミアルコール類と光学活性アミノ酸類から得られるアミノ酸エステル類をジアステレオマー分割した後に加水分解する事による光学活性アルコール類の製造法である。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来から光学活性アルコール類の製造法は種々知られている。例えば(1)ラセミアルコールのカルボン酸エステルを酵素で不斉加水分解する方法 (Agric.Biol.Chem., 46,757(1982))、(2)前駆体のケトン類を酵素で不斉水素化する方法(日化誌、1315(1983))、(3)前駆体のケトン類を不斉触媒と水素を用いて不斉還元する方法(J.Am.Chem.Soc.,101,3129(1979))、(4)ラセミアルコールとフタル酸無水物を反応させ、得られたラセミカルボン酸を光学活性α−フェニルエチルアミンで光学分割した後、加水分解して光学活性アルコールを得る方法(EP656344)等が知られている。これらの方法は光学活性アルコール類を製造する優れた方法であるが、それぞれ欠点もある。(1)の方法は高価な酵素を使用すること、また酵素の光学選択性が目的化合物によって大きく異なり、高い光学純度のアルコール類を得る事が難しい場合が多い。(2)では高価な酵素を使用すること、また酵素活性が一般に高くない。(3)では高価な不斉触媒を使用すること、また高い光学純度のアルコール類を得ることが難しい。(4)ではフタル酸誘導体にしてから改めてジアステレオマー塩分割をしなければならず煩雑である、等の欠点がある。
【0003】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明は高い光学純度の光学活性の2−メトキシシクロヘキサノールを生産するに当たり、安価で、簡便な工業的製造法を提供することを目的とする。
【0004】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明者らは光学活性アルコール類の製造法を鋭意検討した結果、光学活性アミノ酸類とラセミの2−メトキシシクロヘキサノールから合成されるアミノ酸エステル類をジアステレオマー分割し、次いで加水分解することにより、高い光学純度の光学活性2−メトキシシクロヘキサノールを効率よく製造出来ることを見いだし、本発明を完成させた。即ち、本発明はラセミの2−メトキシシクロヘキサノールと下記一般式(I)または(II)で表される光学活性アミノ酸類と反応させて得られるアミノ酸エステル類をジアステレオマー分割することによる光学活性アミノ酸エステルの製造法、およびその光学活性アミノ酸エステル、更に得られた光学活性アミノ酸エステルを加水分解する事による光学活性2−メトキシシクロヘキサノールの製造方法である。
【化7】
(式中、R 1 が無置換のアラルキル基であるとき、R 2 は無置換のアリール基を示す。R 1 が無置換の炭素数1のアルキル基であるとき、R 2 はニトロ基で置換されたアリール基を示す。)
【化8】
(式中、R 3 は芳香環が無置換のアラルキル基を示し、R 4 は炭素数1のアルキル基で置換されたアリール基を示す。)
【0005】
【発明の実施の形態】
原料のラセミアルコール類は2−メトキシシクロヘキサノールである(以下これをラセミアルコール類と称する場合もある)。また、ラセミアルコール類とはR体とS体が等量含まれる混合物だけでなく、S体、或いはR体が50%以上、99%以下の混合物も含む。
【0006】
光学活性アミノ酸類の立体構造は目的に応じてS−構造、R−構造の化合物が使用できる。工業的に大量に、且つ安価に入手できる点から天然型のL−α−アミノ酸類が好ましいが、これらに限定されず、非天然型のアミノ酸類でも使用できる。例えば、L−アラニン、L−フェニルアラニン、L−バリン、L−イソロイシン、L−ロイシン等の天然型アミノ酸類、D−アラニン、D−フェニルアラニン、D−バリン、D−イソロイシン、D−ロイシン等の非天然型アミノ酸等が挙げられる。
【0007】
本発明においてアミノ酸類は反応性や分割効率を考慮してアミノ基をN−置換したアシル誘導体やスルホニル誘導体に変換してから使用する。例えばベンゾイル、トルオイル、クロロベンゾイル等のアリールカルボニル基で修飾したアミノ酸のアシル誘導体が挙げられる。また、ベンゼンスルホニル、トルエンスルホニル、クロロベンゼンスルホニル等のアリールスルホニル基で修飾したアミノ酸のスルホニル誘導体が挙げられる。
【0008】
光学活性アミノ酸類とラセミアルコール類のエステルは通常の方法で製造できる。例えば光学活性アミノ酸類の酸ハロゲン化物とラセミアルコール類を反応させる方法、光学活性アミノ酸類とラセミアルコール類をエステル化触媒共存下で加熱脱水する方法、光学活性アミノ酸類の酸無水物とラセミアルコール類を反応させる方法等が挙げられる。
【0009】
かくして製造された光学活性アミノ酸類とラセミアルコール類のエステルをジアステレオマー分割する。光学分割の方法には、それぞれの光学異性体の溶解度差を利用して晶析分離する方法、それぞれの光学異性体をカラム分離する方法、それぞれの光学異性体を擬似移動床を使用して分離する方法等が挙げられ、目的に応じて分割法を選択する事ができる。晶析分離する場合には、晶析溶媒はそれぞれのエステルにより異なるが、一般には水、アルコール類、脂肪族炭化水素類、芳香族炭化水素類、ケトン類、エーテル類、或いはそれらの混合溶媒が使用できる。カラム分割する場合には、カラム充填剤としてシリカゲル、修飾シリカゲル等が使用できる。特に、工業生産をする場合には、カラム分離を擬似移動床で実施するとより効果的である。
【0010】
ジアステレオマー分割された光学活性アミノ酸エステル類を加水分解することで、目的の光学活性アルコール類を製造できる。エステル類の加水分解は酸、アルカリの何れでも可能であるが、目的化合物のアルコール類がラセミ化を併発しない条件が必須である。例えば硫酸、塩酸等の鉱酸水溶液、或いは水酸化ナトリウム、水酸化カリウム、炭酸ナトリウム、炭酸水素ナトリウム等のアルカリ水溶液と反応させればよい。その際に、溶媒として水以外にも、メタノール、イソプロパノール、アセトン、トルエン、クロロホルム等の有機溶媒を共存させて加水分解させる事もできる。反応温度はそれぞれの化合物によって加水分解速度が異なる為に一概に云えないが、ラセミ化を併発しない範囲内で加熱してもよく、室温から100℃が好ましい。かくして得られた光学活性アルコール類を反応液から回収するには、例えば溶媒抽出で光学活性アミノ酸類と分離した後、蒸留する事で光学活性2−メトキシシクロヘキサノールを得ることができる。
【0011】

以下、実施例及び比較例を挙げて本発明を詳細に説明するが、本発明はこれらに限定されるものではない。尚、HPLCでの光学純度分析は、対象化合物により溶離液組成は異なるが、基本的分析条件は以下の通りである。

Chem., 46,757 (1982)), (2) Asymmetric hydrogenation of precursor ketones (Nikka Journal, 1315 (1983)), (3) Asymmetric reduction of precursor ketones using an asymmetric catalyst and hydrogen (J. Am. Chem. Soc., 101, 3129 (1979)) (4) A method in which racemic alcohol and phthalic anhydride are reacted and the obtained racemic carboxylic acid is optically resolved with optically active α-phenylethylamine and then hydrolyzed to obtain an optically active alcohol (EP656344) is known. It has been. These methods are excellent methods for producing optically active alcohols, but each has drawbacks. In the method (1), an expensive enzyme is used, and the optical selectivity of the enzyme varies greatly depending on the target compound, and it is often difficult to obtain alcohols with high optical purity. In (2), an expensive enzyme is used, and the enzyme activity is generally not high. In (3), it is difficult to use an expensive asymmetric catalyst and to obtain alcohols with high optical purity. In (4), the diastereomeric salt has to be divided again after making the phthalic acid derivative, which is troublesome.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
An object of the present invention is to provide an inexpensive and simple industrial production method for producing optically active 2-methoxycyclohexanol having high optical purity.
[0004]

[0005]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The starting racemic alcohol is 2-methoxycyclohexanol (hereinafter sometimes referred to as racemic alcohol) . The racemic alcohols include not only a mixture containing an equal amount of R and S isomers but also a mixture containing 50% or more and 99% or less of S or R isomers.
[0006]
Conformation of optically active amino acids are S- structure according to the purpose, the compound of R- structure can be used. Natural L-α-amino acids are preferred from the viewpoint of being commercially available in large quantities and at a low price, but are not limited to these, and non-natural amino acids can also be used. For example, L- alanine, L- phenylalanine, L- valine, L- isoleucine, natural amino acids L- leucine or the like, D- alanine, D- phenylalanine, D- valine, D- isoleucine, D- leucine, etc. Examples include non-natural amino acids .
[0007]
Amino acids in the present invention is to use after converting the acyl derivatives or sulfonyl derivatives N- substituted amino group in consideration of reactivity and splitting efficiency. Example Ebabe Nzoiru, toluoyl, acyl derivatives of modified amino acids in the arylcarbonyl group such as chloro benzoyl and the like. Further, base Nzensuruhoniru, toluenesulfonyl, a sulfonyl derivative of modified amino acids in the arylsulfonyl group such as chlorobenzene sulfonyl.
[0008]
Esters of optically active amino acids and racemic alcohols can be produced by conventional methods. For example, a method of reacting an acid halide of an optically active amino acid with a racemic alcohol, a method of heating and dehydrating an optically active amino acid and a racemic alcohol in the presence of an esterification catalyst, an acid anhydride of an optically active amino acid and a racemic alcohol And the like.
[0009]
The optically active amino acids and racemic alcohol esters thus prepared are diastereomerically resolved. The optical resolution method includes crystallization separation using the difference in solubility of each optical isomer, column separation of each optical isomer, and separation of each optical isomer using a simulated moving bed. And a division method can be selected according to the purpose. In the case of crystallization separation, the crystallization solvent varies depending on each ester, but generally water, alcohols, aliphatic hydrocarbons, aromatic hydrocarbons, ketones, ethers, or a mixed solvent thereof is used. Can be used. When the column is divided, silica gel, modified silica gel or the like can be used as a column filler. In particular, in industrial production, it is more effective to perform column separation in a simulated moving bed.
[0010]
The target optically active alcohol can be produced by hydrolyzing diastereomeric resolved optically active amino acid esters. The ester can be hydrolyzed by either acid or alkali, but it is essential that the alcohol of the target compound does not cause racemization. For example, the reaction may be performed with an aqueous mineral acid solution such as sulfuric acid or hydrochloric acid, or an alkaline aqueous solution such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, or sodium bicarbonate. In that case, it can also hydrolyze by coexisting organic solvents, such as methanol, isopropanol, acetone, toluene, chloroform, other than water as a solvent. The reaction temperature cannot be generally specified because the hydrolysis rate varies depending on each compound. However, the reaction temperature may be heated within a range not causing racemization, and is preferably from room temperature to 100 ° C. In order to recover the optically active alcohol thus obtained from the reaction solution, for example, optically active 2-methoxycyclohexanol can be obtained by distillation after separation from the optically active amino acid by solvent extraction.
