Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the preparation of amides and more specifically to a process for theLr preparation from the corresponding nitrile. It is often desired to employ oxidising systems in carrying out reactions. When these are contemplated on a commercial scale, it is generally recognised that in an ideal world, it would be advantageous for such oxidising systems to be widely available, storage stable, easy to handle and relatively cheap, but also beneficial if they could also perform the desired reaction under mild conditions. Unfortunately, the world is often far from ideal, because the demands for good storage stability and safe handling of oxidising systems can be incompatible with the counter-demands of good reactivity at mild conditions.
  • a process for preparing an aromatic amide from the corresponding aromatic nitrile in which the nitrile is contacted with an alkali metal perborate in an aqueous alcoholic reaction medium at a mild reaction temperature until at least some of the corresponding aromatic amide has been formed.
  • the range of aromatic nitriles which are suitable starting materials for the present invention process is extremely wide. Results that were regarded as at least satisfactory were obtained from a very large number of different nitrile substituted compounds.
  • the aromatic nucleus can comprise a carbocyclic nucleus or a nucleus substituted by a heteroatom.
  • Suitable nuclei include benzene, furan, thiophene, pyridine or a fused ring system such as quinoline.
  • Present trials have not demonstrated a positive result from a polycyclic carbocyclic nucleus, and such nuclei are deemed to be excluded herein from the term aromatic for the purpose of the present invention process unless or until they are shown to yield the desired product.
  • the reaction has been demonstrated most often when the nitrile substituent is a direct substituent of the aromatic nucleus but an acceptable result has also been obtained when the nitrile was separated from the nucleus by an interposed methylene group. It will be understood, however, that the present invention process does not extend to the use of aliphatic nitriles as starting materials.
  • the aromatic nucleus can be further substituted by a wide range of substituents, including both electron withdrawing and electron donating substituents, in any position around the nucleus, although it will be recognised that their presence will affect to a greater or lesser extent the efficiency of the reaction, depending also upon their position around the nucleus relative to the nitrile substituent. Whilst the invention process has been best characterised in the presence of a single additional substituent, a number of results demonstrate that a plurality of substituents can be present, provided that they are so positioned around the nucleus as to avoid shielding the nitrile from reaction, ie avoiding substitution simultaneously at the 2,6 positions by bulky groups, such as groups that are significantly larger than fluoro.
  • Suitable substituents can be selected from alkyl groups, and especially methyl, halo groups, specifically chloro or fluoro groups, alkoxy, preferably methoxy groups, thioalkyl, such as thiomethyl, nitro or nitrile groups. It is also possible to employ substrates containing amino or hydroxyl groups although the efficiency of the present invention reaction in their presence is somewhat diminished, to the extent demonstrated by the examples provided herein.
  • the present invention provides a convenient process for the preparation of a lagre number of substituted aromatic amides.
  • the reaction employs an oxidising system, which is reduced by interaction with the substrate, it is possibly referred to more accurately as an hydrolysis reaction rather than as an oxidation reaction.
  • the alkali perborate is particularly conveniently a sodium perborate on account of the bulk availability and excellent storage and handling properties of the two industrially available products sodium perborate monohydrate and sodium perborate tetrahydrate, which have respectively the empirical formulae aI.O3.H2O and a-.O3.4H2O, though these do not properly represent the structure of the compounds.
  • a particularly safe way comprises introducing it progressively, such as in small portions or continuously during an introductory period, either at or below the desired reaction temperature.
  • the invention reaction conditions permit the hydration reaction of the nitrile to be effected using only a modest excess of perborate.
  • a mole ratio for perboraternitrile selected in the range of from at least 1.5:1 to 6:1 and particularly from 2.5:1 to 4:1.
  • the efficiency of the reaction depending upon which substituents are present, but by appropriate selection of conditions, it is possible to obtain very high conversion to the amide at a mole ratio chosen within the aforementioned ranges.
  • the reaction medium for the present reaction comprises an aqueous alcohol solution.
  • the alcohol is particularly suitably a low molecular weight aliphatic alcohol, and especially one that is free from olefinic unsaturation.
  • An advantageously convenient example comprises methanol.
  • the ratio of alcohol : water in the reaction mixture is often chosen within the range of ratios of from 2:1 to 1:2 v/v.
  • the alcohol component of the reaction medium can be introduced progressively, into a preformed aqueous mixture of the perborate, water and substrate, ie in portions or continuously throughout an extended period of reagent introduction.
  • the reaction is carried out at a mild temperature, by which is meant that there is no need to maintain a high temperature during the reaction or even approach closely reflux temperature for the medium. In many instances, it is convenient to employ a temperature that is above ambient, and preferably above 40°C, up to about 70°C. Very effective oxidations have been achieved in the region of or around 45 to 55°C throughout the reaction period.
  • the total reaction period will usually be determined in practice by taking into account the reaction temperature and the substrate and will often include a period during which perborate is introduced and a subsequent period in which the reaction is allowed to progress.
  • the alcohol introduction period is often chosen within the range of 10 to 60 minutes.
  • the subsequent period is often chosen in the range of from 45 minutes to 10 hours and for many of the substrates in the range of from 45 minutes to 200 minutes.
  • Some reaction can occur whilst the alcohol is being introduced so that the total reaction period is often selected in the range of from 1 hour to 10 hours, and for many substrates from 1 hour to 4 hours.
  • reaction can be monitored, for example by thin layer chromatography. Recovery of the product can be commenced when the monitoring indicates that either a desired proportion of the substrate has been consumed or converted to the product, or the consumption or production rate has slowed to a rate at or near zero, thereby indicating that little further product could be obtained.
  • reaction periods can be gauged in small scale trials and refined in bulk-scale operation.
  • the invention process is particularly suitable for a batch style reaction procedure, but it will be recognised that by a suitable choice of reactor design such as a once through tubular reactor, it is a practical proposition to carry out the reaction continuously, especially for those substrates that employ a relatively short reaction period.
  • the product can be recovered from the reaction mixture by removal if desired of at least part of the alcohol from the reaction medium, such as by evaporation, preferably under reduced pressure, and subsequent addition of a stripping immiscible solvent to the residue, thereby transferring the product mainly into the solvent.
  • Suitable solvents include halogenated hydrocarbons such as chloroform.
  • the total amount of solvent employed is often chosen within the range of from 1 to 10 parts v/v per part of reaction mixture.
  • the conventional techniques of solvent stripping, viz continuous co- or counter-current contact or multiple batch contact are applicable.
  • the solvent can subsequently be removed, preferably by evaporation under reduced pressure to yield a solid product.
