Description

, In this way the subsequent esterification is 1 Patented Dec. 15, 1931 UNITED STATES LUDWIG SCHMIDT, or HAMBURG-BERGEDORF, GERMANY, ASSIGNOR TO SOGIETE ALSAOIENNE DE rnonorrs GHIMIQUES, or PARIS, FRANCE, A rnnncn COMPANY PROCESS FOR OBTAINING BORNYL AND ISOBORNYL ESTERS No Drawing. Application filed August 20, 1928, Serial No. 300,949, and in France February 18, 1928.
It is known that bornyl and isobornyl esters are obtained with satisfactory technical outputs by heating at an ordinary pressure pinene or oils containing pinene with organic acids with the addition of mixed acig anhydride of boric acid and another aci According to the present application it has been found that in this operation the ester content can be substantially increased by carrying out the condensation in two separate processes side by side, as follows:
(1) First of all, pinene or oils containing pinene are treated with mixed acid anhydride of boric acid and another acid, for instance acetoboric anhydride, the latter either in the finished state or so to be formed in situ, alone, i. e. without addition of the organic acid to be esterified, for instance acetic acid. The quantity of the mixed acid anhydride of boric and other acid can vary within relatively wide. limits and this preesterification serves chiefly for the purpose of obtaining as high a temperature as possible, for the purpose of converting the condensation agent i. e. the mixed anhydride of boric and other acid, into the condition which is most effective for the subsequent esterification.
(2) When the desired maximum temperature is obtained, there then takes place in the second operation the addition of the free organic acid, preferably in a measured excess, to the reaction mixture, which addition takes place slowly while continuously heating.
cifected with the continuous action of the condensing agent, until a maximum ester content is reached. When this is reached,
the process is interrupted and it is found that the yield of ester, owing to the separate method of procedure is on an average 1 520% higher than if the free organic acid were introduced into the process from the outset.
This fact was not to be foreseen. In this case too boronyl and isoboronyl esters are obtained exclusively, without any formation of resin.
The technical effect of the present process as compared with the known process consists broadly in obtaining higher yields of ester. For instance the final outputs from 136 kgs. pinene plus 30 kgs. acetoboric anhydride and 100 kgs. glacial acetic, acid according to the known process, that is to say in one single operation amount on an average to 60% P T OFFICE.
at the end to 60-65%. The reactionproduct is treated with water, in which case the acetoboric anhydride decomposes into boric acid and acetic acid, while the bornyl and isobornyl acetate formed separates at the top as an oily layer. Purification is then carried out in a known manner either by steam distillation or vacuum distillation, and then saponification with alcoholic alkali, a mixture of pure bornyl and isobornyl acetate of melting point 196199 0. being formed.
Having now described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is 1. In the process of obtaining bornyl and isobornyl esters by heating at an ordinary pressure pinene with an aliphatic monocarboxylic acid with the addition of mixed acid anhydride .of boric acid and an aliphatic monocarboxylic acid, the feature that the esterification is effected in two stages the first stage being efi'ected with the mixed acid anhydride of boric acid and an aliphatic monocarboxylic acid, the esterifi-cation being thereupon completed by the addition of free aliphatic monocarboxylic acid.
2. In the process of obtaining bornyl and isobornyl' esters by heating at an ordinary pressure oils containing pinene with an aliphatic monocarboxylic acid with the addition of mixed acid anhydride of boric acid and an aliphatic monocarboxylic acid, the
feature that the esterification is effected in two stages the first stage being effected With the mixed acid anhydride of boric acid and an aliphatic monocarboxylic acid, the esteri- .fication being thereupon completed by the addition of free aliphatic monocarboxylic acid.
3. The process as claimed in claim 1 in which the mixed acid anhydride of boric acid and an aliphatic monocarboxylic acid is formed in situ.
4. The process as claimed in claim 2 in which the mixed acid anhydride of boric acid and an aliphatic monocarboxylic acid is formed in situ.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
