' The present invention relates to the production of new organic products.
We have found that a new organic material which can be converted-into valuable assistants for the textile and allied industries, in particular wetting, cleansing, dispersing and like agents, can be obtained by splitting off one molecular proportion of water from the 7.18-stearic glycol -obtainable by the reduction of ricinoleic acid or its 10 esters, the resulting unsaturated alcohol being then converted into water soluble products by treatment with a strong polybasic mineral acid substance selected from the group consisting of sulphonating agents and phosphoric acid or its derivatives.
The splitting oil of water very probably takes place at the secondary hydroxyl group and a product isomeric with natural oleyl alcohol cH3- (cm) -l cn=cn cm women:
9.10-octo-decene-18-ol) is obtained which differs from the latter in the position 01' the double linkage.
present invention contrasted with that described in the British Patents Nos. 308,824 and 317,039 consists in the fact that the oleyl alcohol used as initial material in the said specifications only occurs in nature in limited quantities or can only be obtained in a troublesome manner by reducing alkyl esters of oleic acid with the aid of sodium, whereas the conversion of 7.18-stearic glycol into an unsaturated alcohol may be efiected very readily and-furthermore the preparation of 85' 7.18-stearic glycol by the catalytic hydrogenation 01' castor oil (which is available in unlimited amounts) oil'ers no dimculty, such process being described for example in the British Patent No. 356,731.
The conversion of 7.18-stearic glycol into an unsaturated alcohol may be effected by heating for some hours to temperatures of from about 50 to about 200" C. with an addition of strong nonoxidizing acids. Organic sulphonic acids, such as naphthalene sulphonic acids, and also highly concentrated aqueous solutions of strong inorganic polybasic acids, as for example about 90 .per cent aqueous phosphoric or sulphuric acids, are particularly suitable for the said purpose but also chloracetic acid may be employed. The said The advantage of the process according to the higher quantities such as from 1.2 to 10 molecular proportions.
The splitting off of water proceeds especially smoothly when first of all the monochloracetate is formed by heating the 7.18-stearic glycol with an equimolecular proportion of monochloracetic acid to from 180 to 200 C. If a little more than 1 molecular proportion of monochloracetic acid be used for each molecular proportion of stearic glycol for the esterification, or if a further amount of monochloracetic acid be added after the esterification has been carried out with 1 molecular proportion of monochloracetic acid, and the whole be heated for some hours at about 200 C., the said splitting off of water takes place smoothly and the chloracetate of an unsaturated alcohol is obtained from which the alcohol itself may be obtained by saponiflcation, I
In order to convert the resulting unsaturated alcohol, which is apparently an octodecene-lB-ol in which the double linkage is connected to the seventh carbon atom of the chain, into watersoluble products it is treated with an at least equimolecular proportion of a strong polybasic mineral acid substance selected from the group consisting of sulphonating agents and phosphoric acid or its derivatives such as sulphuric acid, oleum, amidosulphonic acid (NHz-SO3H), sulphur trioxide or chlorsulphonic acid, or with phosphoric acid or its acid reacting derivatives such as phosphorus pentoxide and phosphorus oxychloride, if desired with an addition of agents capable of combining with water such as acetic anhydride. When oleum, sulphur trioxide or chlorsulphonic acid are employed it is preferable to work in the presence of inert, organic liquid diluents, such as carbon tetrachloride, trlchlorethylene, ethyl ether, glacial acetic acid or like inert organic solvents, since otherwise dark colored products may be readily formed. Thus, for example, the alcohol may be treated for about 1 hour at a temperature of from about 0 to 50 C. with its own weight of sulphuric acid oi 96 per cent strength, or the alcohol may also be dissolved in an inert solvent, such as etfwl ether or carbon tetrachloride, and treated at about 20 C. for about 80 to 60 minutes with an..equimolecular proportion of chlorosulphonic acid. The esters obtainable in this manner correspond presumably to the formula Y being hydrogen or an alkali radicle or, in the case of a diester, for example to the formula CH.1(CH:)eR(CH:)o-CH:OSO3Y in which R denotes I [CHZ-CHZ-CHZ] in which one of the 2's denotes OS:Y,.
the remaining Zs denote hydrogen and Y denotes hydrogen or an alkali metal radicle which latter can be obtained by the employment of a mixture of chlorsulphonic and sulphuric acids, or as a mixture containing preponderating quantitles of such di-ester. The unsaturated alcohol may also be dissolved in about its own weight of acetic anhydrlde and at least one equimolecular proportion of sulphuric acid of 100 percent strength may be added, the mixture being kept at a temperature of from about 10' to 20 C. for about 8 hours; in this case, after saponiflcation of acetyl groups, a sulphonic acid may be formed which presumably corresponds to the formula CHs-(CEzh-[CHZ-CHZ-CHZl- (cum-onion inwhichvicinalZ'sdenoteSOaHand-OH andtheremainingzdenoteshydrogenl Thecompoundsobtainedinthesaidmanner may be employed either as such or in the form' oftheiralkalisaltasuchassodium,potassium orammoniumsaluforagreatvarietyofpurposesindomesticandindustrialusebyreason of their excellent wetting, cleansing and emulsifylngpower. Inparticulartheyarecapableof wide employment in the textile industries, as for exampleaswetting. washing,levelling and like agentsorforsofteningartiilcialsllk. Theymay be employedalone or together with a great variety of additions, such as salts, as for example common salt, Glaubers salt or sodium perborate, acids,"such as aqueous dilute solutions of organic or mineral acids, alkalles, glue, water-soluble or water-insoluble solvents, oils of mineral, vegetableoranimalorigimsoapsandlikeagentsused in the textile and related industries.
The following examples will further illustrate the nature of this invention but the invention is not restricted to these examples. The parts are by weight.
Emmple 1 '288 parts of 'Lls-stearic glycol (obtainable by the catalytic reduction of castor oil according to the British Patent No. 356,731) are heated; while leading in a currentof nitrogen into the mixture. with 125 parts of chloracetic acid for 5 hours at from 180' to 200' 0., whereby about38 parts of water are split oil. The chloracetate obtained is saponifled by boiling for several hours with 1500 parts of an aqueous caustic soda solution 0110 per cent strength. In order to purify the product which separates out as an oily layer on the top of the aqueous liquid, it may be distilled at from 150' to 210 C. at a pressure of 2 millimeters mercury gauge.
50 parts of the unsaturated alcohol (octodecenol, in which the double linkage is presumably on either side of the seventh carbon atom) thus obtained are dissolved in 150 parts of ethyl ether and a mixture of 23 parts of chlorsulphonic acid and 50 parts of ethyl ether is added while cooling to about 15 C. After stirring for one hour the reaction product is poured onto ice, neutralized with an aqueous caustic soda solution and the ethyl ether is evaporated. In this manner 'a product having excellent washing and wetting power is obtained,'which, besides some common salt contains the sulphuric ester sodium salt corresponding presumably to the formula (CH2) s-CHz-OSOsNa.
Example 2 '14 parts of 7.18-stearic glycol (ll-acetate are heated together with parts of chloracetic acid for 2 hours at 200" C. while passing through'a current of nitrogen, whereupon the whole is heated to 250 C. for 2 hours and then to boiling for the same length of time with 500 parts of a 10 per cent ethyl-alcoholic caustic potash solution the alcohol being then distilled off. By adding water, the unsaturated alcohol formed is-precipitated. If desired, the latter may be purified by distillation at a pressure below atmospheric pressure.
The conversion of the unsaturated alcohol into a water-soluble product is carried out with chlorsulphonic acid and ethyl ether as described in Example 1.
Example 3 2'! parts of the alcohol obtained by acting with chloracetic acid on 7.18-stearic glycol and subsequent saponiflcation as described in Example 1 aredissolvedin 200partsofethyl etherandthen intimately stirred with parts of phosphoric pentoxide for 24 hours. The reaction product is poured onto iceand the resulting solution is neutralized with aqueous caustic soda solution. The supernatant ethereal layer is separated from the aqueous layer and washed with water. The aqueous solutions are then inspissated whereby a product having a good emulsifying power "is obtained. The ph phoric ester responds to the formula and may be employed in the form of its monoor di-sodium salts.
Example 4 parts of chlorsulphonic acid and 20 parts of,
concentrated sulphuric acid are added while cooling to a mixture of parts of trichlorethylene and parts of'an lmsaturated-alcohol obtained, according to Example 1 by the action of chloracetic acid'on 'LIB-stearic glycol. After stirring for 2' hours the reaction mixture is poured onto ice, rendered neutral with the aid of aqueous caustic soda solution and then evaporated to dryness. A product is obtained which, besides sodium-chloride and sodium sulphate, consists of a mixture of sulphuric acid salts of the said alcohol, a preponderating quantity 'of which salts corresponds to the formula premmably corin which one of the Zs denotes (OSOaNa) and the remaining .two Zs denote hydrogen.
