Description
United States Patent 3,171,857 HYDRAZODICARBOXYLIC ACIDDIHYDRAZIDES Erhard P. Benzing, St. Louis, Mo., assignor to Monsanto Company, a corporation of Delaware No Drawing. Filed Sept. 25, 1961, Ser. No. 140,265 Claims priority, application Switzerland, Sept. 27, 1960, 10,918/ 60 5 Claims. (Cl. 260554) It has been found that hydrazodicarboxylic aciddihydrazides which have been unknown until now are obtained by reaction of a hydrazodicarboxylic acid diester with hydrazine or a substituted hydrazine.
The hydrazidation proceeds according to the following equation:
In this formula R has the significance usual in such esters and R, R and R are hydrogen atoms or hydrocarbon radicals.
When substituted hydrazines of the formula HNRINRIIRIII are used as reactants in the process of the invention, the R, R" and R radicals are hydrogen or hydrocarbon radicals, except of course one must be a hydrocarbon radical to fit the definition of substituted hydrazine. Usually it is preferred that R, R and R be hydrocarbon radicals of not more than 18 carbon atoms, more preferably not more than 8 carbon atoms. Illustrative of substituted hydrazines usable in the process of the invention are the following: Methyl hydrazine, t-butyl hydrazine, n-dodecyl hydrazine, cyclohexyl hydrazine, benzyl hydrazine, phenyl hydrazine, p-tolyl hydrazine, [3- naphthyl hydrazine, N,N'-diinethyl hydrazine, N,N-diphenyl hydrazine, N,N,N'-trimethyl hydrazine, N-phenyl- N-methyl hydrazine, etc.
The hydrazodicarboxylic acid esters serving as starting material can be prepared in known manner from hydrazine and chloroformic acid esters. In principle, all esters available can be used in this reaction. However, the hydrazidation does not occur equally easily with all esters, as is shown in the following table:
But, these yields which for comparison purposes were obtained with hydrazine by using the working method described in Example 1 do not represent the maximum that can be obtained. Esters wherein R is an araliphatic or cycloaliphatic radical, e.g. the benzyl radical or the cyclohexyl radical, can also be used. Usually it is preferred that R contain not more than 18 carbon atoms, and more preferably not more than 8 carbon atoms. In general, the methyl ester owing to its price and technical availability is preferred in carrying out the invention.
The reaction of an optional hydrazodicarboxylic acid diester is best eilected by heating a mixture of hydrazine and ester for some time at higher temperature. Using hydrazine or aliphatically substituted hydrazines, the reaction is complete at about 100 C. in most cases after 3040 minutes. However, the hydrazidation also occurs at room temperature when the reaction mixture is left standing for a prolonged time. The less basic aromatical- 1y substituted hydrazines need more prolonged reaction time and possibly a higher reaction temperature. The
3,171,857 Patented Mar. 2, 1965 process of invention can be carried out with or without a solvent. The lower aliphatic alcohols are especially suitable as solvents. A lower aliphatic alcohol is one having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms. In general, the same or similar working methods are applicable as with the amidation of carboxylic acids by using esters thereof.
To supplement the compound of the invention of the examples the following compounds are named as illustrative of compounds of the invention: hydrazodicarboxylic acid bis-(trimethyl-hydrazide), hydrazodicarboxylic acid bis-(tribenzylhydrazide), hydrazodicarboxylic acid bis (tricyclohexylhydrazide), hydrazodicarboxylic acid bis-(tri-n-dodecylhydrazide), hydrazodicarboxylic acid bis-(N-phenyl-N-methyl-N-ethyl-hydrazide), etc.
The hydrazodicarboxylic acid-dihydrazides of the invention are useful as reducing agents. They also have similar uses to hydrazine. Unlike hydrazine the compounds of the invention are solid and more stable. They are useful as solid rocket propellants, since on oxidation large volumes of nitrogen as well as water are formed.
Hydrazodicarboxylic acid-dihydrazides are valuable intermediates. The compound obtained with hydrazine reacts with ketones and aldehydes in the same way as semicarbazide, thereby two molecules of the carbonyl compound can be condensed with one molecule of hydrazodicarboxylic acid-dihydrazide. Derivatives of acetone, ben zaldehyde, isobutyraldehyde, etc., are formed very easily and practically quantitatively on mixing the reactants in warm water. The novel compounds, as long as they contain a replaceable hydrogen atom, can be reacted with carboxylic acid chlorides or anhydrides in the normal manner, thus obtaining, the corresponding mono, di or even polyacylderivative. With for example two equivalents of benzenesulfonyl chloride, one obtains the symmetrical dibenzenesulfonylderivative.
Example 1 7.5 g. of hydrazodicarboxylic acid-dimethylester (0.05 mole) and 10 g. of hydrazine hydrate (0.2 mole) are heated at C. for /2 hour. Crystals separate on cooling and standing for some time.
