Definitions

• the present invention relates to the preparation of halogenated hydroxydiphenyl compounds of the formula
• Ri and R 2 independently of one another are F, Cl or Br;
• R 3 and R 4 independently of one another are hydrogen; or CrC 4 alkyl; m is 1 to 3; and n is 1 or 2; and to the use of these compounds as disinfectants for protecting organic materials from microorganisms.
• WO 99/10310 discloses a four-stage process for the preparation of 2,4,4'-trichloro-2'- hydroxydiphenyl ether (triclosan) by acylation of a halobenzene compound (first stage), etherification of the acylated compound using a halogenated phenol compound in an Ullmann-analogous reaction (second stage), Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of the etherified compound (third stage) and subsequent hydrolysis.
• triclosan 2,4,4'-trichloro-2'- hydroxydiphenyl ether
• the present invention therefore relates to a four-stage process for the preparation of halogenated hydroxydiphenyl compounds, which are not further substituted in the 2'- and 6'- position, of the formula (1), in which in the first stage a halogenated benzene compound is acylated, in the second stage the acylated compound is etherified using a halogenated phenol compound which is not further substituted in the ortho-position, in a third stage the etherified compound is oxidized and in the fourth stage the oxidized compound is hydrolysed, wherein the reaction of the second stage is carried out in the presence of K 2 CO 3 and any desired copper catalyst, where K 2 CO 3 is used in a concentration of from 0.5 to 3 mol, based on the phenol compound employed of the formula (6), according to the following reaction scheme:
• R1, R2, R 3 , R , m and n are as indicated in formula (1).
• acylation reaction compounds of the formula (5) are prepared.
• this reaction is carried out in the presence of a Lewis acid, e.g. aluminium halide, in particular aluminium chloride.
• the Lewis acid is in this case employed in a 1 to 3, preferably 1.25 to 2, molar amount, based on the halogenated compound of the formula (5).
• a possible acylating reagent for this reaction is an acyl halide, in particular acetyl chloride.
• C r C 4 alkyl is preferably a straight-chain or branched alkyl radical, e.g. methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, sec-butyl or tert-butyl.
• the Lewis acid and acylating reagent are preferably employed in equimolar amounts.
• the reaction is carried out in the solvents customary for Friedel-Crafts reactions, e.g. nitrobenzene, dichlorobenzene, methylene chloride or ethylene chloride.
• the reaction time for this reaction stage plays a minor part and can vary within wide bounds, from, for example, 1 to 18 hours.
• the compounds of the formula (7) are prepared.
• the ethenfication of the free OH group of the halogenated phenol compound of the formula (6) is carried out in alkaline medium using K 2 CO 3 , and in the presence of any copper catalyst, for example metallic copper, copper(l) and copper(ll) oxides, copper halides and copper acetates or CuCO 3 x Cu(OH) 2 and an inert organic solvent, e.g. toluene or a xylene isomer mixture.
• the reaction can also be carried out, however, in the presence of polar solvents, for example DMF or D SO.
• reaction times for this reaction step are usually 1 to 24 hours, preferably 2 to 10 hours; the temperature ranges from 80 to 250°C, preferably 100 to 170°C.
• the base (K 2 CO 3 ) is used in concentrations of preferably from 0.8 to 2 mol per mole and very particularly 0.9 to 1.1 mol per mole, based on the phenol compound employed.
• the phenol compound of the formula (6) is preferably employed in a definite excess.
• Suitable oxidizing agents are, for example: a mixture of dilute peracetic acid and acetic anhydride in the presence of a catalytic amount of perchloric acid; m-chloroperbenzoic acid (MCPBA) in water; diperoxydodecanedioic acid (DPDDA); a mixture of dilute peracetic acid and acetic anhydride and sulfuric acid; perbenzoic acid (PBA) a mixture of sodium borate and trifluoroacetic acid; a mixture of formic acid, hydrogen peroxide, acetic anhydride, phosphorus pentoxide and acetic acid; a mixture of acetic acid, hydrogen peroxide, acetic anhydride and phosphorus pentoxide; a mixture of hydrogen peroxide/sulfuric acid/acetic
• MCPBA m-Chloroperbenzoic acid
• a mixture of hydrogen peroxide/sulfuric acid/acetic acid is preferably used for the oxidation.
• reaction times lie in a wide range and range from about 0.5 to about 15 hours, preferably 1 to 8 hours.
• the reaction temperature ranges from -20 to about 100°C, preferably from 0 to about 85°C.
• the process according to the invention preferably relates to the preparation of halohydroxydiphenyl compounds of the formula (1), in which
• halogenated hydroxydiphenyl compounds prepared according to the invention are insoluble in water, but soluble in dilute sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide solution and in virtually all organic solvents. Owing to these solubility requirements, their applicability for the control of microorganisms, in particular of bacteria, and as disinfectants for protecting organic materials and articles from attack by microorganisms is very versatile. Thus they can be applied to these in diluted or undiluted form, for example, together with wetting or dispersing agents, e.g. as soap or syndet solutions for the disinfection and cleaning of human skin and hands, of hard articles and in dental hygiene compositions.
• wetting or dispersing agents e.g. as soap or syndet solutions for the disinfection and cleaning of human skin and hands, of hard articles and in dental hygiene compositions.
• the temperature of the mixture is kept between 30 and 40°C during the hydrolysis by external cooling. After separation of the phases, the lower, organic phase is washed with 400 ml of water and, after fresh phase separation, subjected to fractional distillation. The aqueous phases are discarded.
• Example 2 The procedure is as described in Example 2, with the difference that instead of copper(ll) oxide, basic copper carbonate (CuCO 3 x Cu(OH) 2 ) is employed.
• CuCO 3 x Cu(OH) 2 basic copper carbonate
• the xylene phase is treated with 24 g of 10% NaOH and stirred under reflux (about 95°C) for 5 hours.
• the xylene phase is then separated off and the pale brown water phase is adjusted to a pH of about 3 using 4 g of 34% hydrochloric acid at 25°C.
• the product precipitates in sandy, beige-coloured form and, after filtration, can be thoroughly washed with water on the suction filter.
• 5 g of the crude product of the formula (104) having a melting point of 73 to 74°C are obtained.
• the pure substance is obtained in colourless crystals having a melting point of 74 to 74.5°C.
• the mixture is then stirred for a further hour at 20°C.
• BV reagent is metered into the BV initial mixture in the course of 4 hours (internal tempeature 30°C).
• the reaction is then kept at an internal temperature of 40°C for 2 hours and at an internal temperature of 50°C for 0.5 hours.
• the work-up is carried out according to the customary methods.
