Description

United States Patent 3,452,080 VINYLPHOSPHINIMINES AND A METHOD OF PREPARATION George R. Harvey, Kirkwood, and Kenneth Wayne Ratts, Creve Coeur, Mo., assignors to Monsanto Company,
St. Louis, Mo., a corporation of Delaware No Drawing. Filed Dec. 29, 1965, Ser. No. 517,474 Int. Cl. C07f 9/02 U.S. Cl. 260-471 9 Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Vinylphosphinimines of the formula RI C lHz R O R,P=N t'-l 1t wherein R is selected from the group consisting of alkyl having up to 12 carbon atoms and phenyl; R is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl having up to 4 carbon atoms and phenyl; R" is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl having up to 4 carbon atoms, phenyl and benzyl; and R is selected from the group Consisting of alkyl having up to 12 carbon atoms, alkoxy having up to 12 carbon atoms, amino, monoand dialkylamino having up to four carbon atoms in each alkyl moiety, aromatic radicals selected from the group consisting of phenyl, phenoxy, benzyl, benzoxy and said aromatic radicals containing substituents selected from the class consisting of alkyl having up to four carbon atoms, chlorine, bromine and nitro; prepared by the reaction in a chlorinated hydrocarbon of the appropriate fl-azido compound with the appropriate phosphine.
These compounds have phytotoxic properties.
This invention relates to a novel process by which new and useful compounds can be formed. By the reaction of a class of vinyl azides with phosphines, compounds with useful ph-ytotoxic properties can be produced. These compounds are useful in inhibiting the growth of noxious vegetation.
The vinyl azides useful in practicing this invention are described and claimed in copending application Ser. No. 517,488, filed Dec. 29, 1965, by George R. Harvey.
The novel reaction takes place in accordance with the equation:
wherein R is selected from the class consisting of alkyl of up to twelve carbon atoms and phenyl; wherein R is selected from the class consisting of hydrogen, alkyl of up to four carbon atoms, and phenyl; wherein R" is selected from the class consisting of hydrogen, alkyl of up to four carbon atoms, phenyl and benzyl; and wherein R is selected from the class consisting of alkyl of up to twelve carbon atoms, alkoxy of up to twelve carbon atoms, amino, monoalkylamino having up to four carbon atoms in the alkyl moiety, dialkylamino having up to four carbon atoms in each alkyl moiety, the aromatic radicals of the class consisting of phenyl, phenoxy, benzyl, benzoxy and the said aromatic radicals containing substituents selected from the class consisting of alkyl of up to four carbon atoms, chlorine, bromine and nitro.
This novel reaction is conducted in a chlorinated hydrocarbon solution and preferably in a solvent of lowboiling point, such as chloroform, methylene chloride, carbon tetrachloride or ethylene dichloride. Low to moderate temperatures (about 20 C. to 40 C.) may be used so as to avoid a too vigorous reaction. The reaction evolves nitrogen and can be continued until the reaction is completed and the nitrogen evolution subsides.
The desired products may be separated in crystalline form by diluting the reaction mixture with aliphatic h-ydrocarbons such as pentane, hexane and heptane. Sufficient of the aliphatic hydrocarbon should be added to induce turbidity. The mixture may be filtered after cooling and the precipitate further purified by recrystallization from a mixture of the described chlorinated hydrocarbons and the aliphatic hydrocarbons.
