METHOD FOR THE PRODUCTION OF AQUEOUS SOLUTIONS Richard Hueter, Dessau-Rosslau, Anhalt, Germany, assignor, by mesne assignments, to Patchem A.-G. zur Beteiligung an Patenten und sonstigen Erflndungsrechten an! Chemlsche Veri'ahrcn, Zurich, Switzerland, a corporation 01' Switzerland No Drawing.
Application June 22, 1939, Serial No. 280,519. In Germany June 23, 1938 10 Claims.
This invention relates to therapeutic and antiseptic compositions, and more particularly to their aqueous solutions.
Various substances have been suggested as agents for the preparation of aqueous dispersions of medicinal, pharmaceutical, therapeutic, and antiseptic preparations which are either difficulty soluble or insoluble in water. Soap and soap-like substances are usually used as dispersing or emulsifying agents for these preparations, but the resulting compositions are usually unstable, especially in hard water. Some dispersions are stable in certain concentrations but become unstable when these concentrations are varied. These aqueous dispersions are turbid and lose their emciency on standing. Some of these agents have disinfectant properties of their own while others have no disinfectant properties of their own and may even impair the disinfectant properties of the compositions being dispersed. Where the dispersing agent has disinfectant properties per se, it frequently happens that the combined efl'ect is less than that to be expected theoretically.
In accordance with application Serial No. 188,- 696, which has matured into Patent Number 2,264,150 dated November 25, 1941, comprising the invention of the instant applicant and another, cation-active quaternary ammonium compounds having higher molecular alkyl groups and being derived from non-saturated weak cyclic bases are excellent water solubilizing agents for medicinal, antiseptic and pharmacological compositions and particularly for phenols, phenol derivatives, camphor, rotenone, menthol, pyrethrines, vegetable extracts, and the like. such quaternary ammonium compounds are, the alkyl-pyridinium hydroxides, and similar compounds, derived from quinoline, isoquinoline, pyrrole, anidine and the like, as well as their salts, halogenides, sulfates, nitrates, acetates, and the like. These quaternary ammonium compounds not only solubilize the foregoing insoluble or difflcultly soluble compounds, but provide additional disinfectant properties to the resulting solutions. When combined with disinfecting agents, particularly those of the phenolic type, these water solubilizing agents retain all of their disinfectant properties without in any way impairing the efliciency of the phenols and the combined effect equals or exceeds the sum of the separat effects.
In accordance with the present invention, quaternary ammonium compounds having a higher molecular substituted or an unsubstituted aliphatic radical which may be interrupted by hetero atoms or hetero atomic groups, and which also have an unsaturated organic radical aliphatically, bound to the nitrogen atom, are excellent water solubilizing agents for the aforesaid vermicides and germicides. The unsaturated organic radical may be either aliphatic or cyclic and in either instance the resulting compounds have the desirable characteristics of the quaternary ammonium compounds derived from weak bases. The solubilizing agents of the present invention are particularly suitable for use with difiicultly soluble or insoluble antiseptic or therapeutic compounds and compositions, such as, phenols, phenol derivatives, camphor, and the like. The solubllizing characteristic of compounds having an unsaturated radical is surprising and unexpected because other quaternary ammonium compounds having higher alkyl groups but no unsaturated radicals, such as, for instance, trimethyl lauryl ammonium chloride, are incapable of producing clear, homogeneous mother solutions or dilute solutions with difficultly soluble or water insoluble antiseptic or germicidal solutions incorporating such compounds as chlorphenols, chlorcresols, chlorxylenols, O-butylatecl or o-benzylated p-chlorphenols. bis (halogen-hydroxy-aryl)-sulfides or oxides, and the like. Yet these compounds are soluble in the presence of the quaternary ammonium compounds of the present invention.
Various aliphatic and cyclic compounds are suitable as solvents in accordance with this invention, but quaternary ammonium compounds which contain at least one benzyl-, menaphthyl-, phenacyl, acetonyl, iurfuryl, allyl, crotonyl or geranyl radical represent a preferred class. For instance, such compounds include methyl diallyl dodecyl ammonium iodide having the formula dibenzyl hydroxy-ethyl dodecoxy-methyl ammonium chloride having the formula cmtcm CIIaCoUs l 110.0;601 CHz.0.CrrIl2s oleyl menaphthyl dimethyl ammonium chloride having the formula CH: CH:
Cl CH:
CIHI H2 and others.
The following examples are included to illustrate the invention and are not to be interpreted as limitations thereon.
Example 1 Six and two-tenths grams of p-chlor-mcresol, 28 grams of piperldino acetic acid dodecyl benzyl amide hydrochloride, 8.0 grams of alcohol and 71.8 grams of water form a clear solution. This solution may be diluted to any desired degree even with hard water, and will remain clear continuing to yield a true solution.
Example 2 Five grams of technical phenol (containing cresol) and grams of dibenzyl hydroxy-ethyl dodecoxy-methyl ammonium chloride are dissolved in 70 grams of water. A clear solution is obtained which may be diluted to any desired degree.
Other clearing agents known to the soap industry, such as cyclohexanol and its homologues, glycerine and glycol ether, tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol, and the like, may be used as an additional solvent instead of alcohol as shown in Example 1.
It should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the specific processes and compositions herein disclosed, but that it extends to all equivalent processes and compositions which one skilled in the art, upon adequate consideration of the state of the art and the tenor of the specification, would consider within the scope of the claims.
