Description
ALPHA ALKYLATION OF ALDEHYDE WITH A POLYCYLIC OLEFIN Technical field
The present invention relates to the field of organic synthesis and more specifically to the alpha alkylation of an aldehyde with a strained polycyclic olefin followed by a ring opening step in order to provide a compound of formula (I). The composition of matter obtainable by such a process, the use of said composition of matter and a perfuming composition or a perfuming consumer product comprising said composition of matter are also part of the present invention.
Prior art
One pot processes comprising several steps are much appreciated in organic synthesis as they lead to the formation of complex chemical structures starting from simple starting materials. For example, the one pot alpha alkylation of an aldehyde with a polycyclic olefin followed by a ring opening step provides a compound of formula (I). Said process allows avoiding a multi-step process toward compound of formula (I).
To the best of our knowledge, said addition / ring opening process has been reported in Comptes Rendus Hebdomadaires des Seances de VAcademie des Sciences 1967, 525 and in Comptes Rendus Hebdomadaires des Seances de VAcademie des Sciences 1970, 63. However, the radical addition of a linear aldehyde on ^pinene provides a mixture of a ketone and 3-(4-isopropylcyclohex-l-en-l-yl)-2-alkylpropanal. When propanal is used as an aldehyde, only 14.38 % of 3-(4-isopropylcyclohex-l-en-l- yl)-2-methylpropanal have been isolated.
So, there is a need to improve reaction conditions of the alpha alkylation of an aldehyde with a strained polycyclic olefin followed by a ring opening step in order to favor the formation of compound of formula (I).
The present invention provides a solution to the above problem by performing said alpha alkylation of a linear aldehyde with a polycyclic olefin in the presence of a photoredox catalyst, a hydrogen atom transfer donor, a secondary amine and light. The alkylation of an aldehyde using a secondary amine and a photoredox catalyst has been reported in Journal of American Chemical Society 2014, 136, 6859. However under described conditions the beta alkylation is observed. To the best of our knowledge, this process has never been reported.

Description of the invention
It has now been discovered that the compound of formula (I) can be produced in an advantageous manner by means of alpha alkylation of an aldehyde with a strained polycyclic olefin followed by a ring opening step. Said process allows avoiding the formation of ketone side product.
A first object of the present invention is a process for the preparation of a compound of formula
in the form of any one of its stereoisomers or a mixture thereof and wherein R represents a hydrogen atom or Ci_g linear alkyl group; R1, R2, R3 and R4 represent, when taken separately, independently from each other, a hydrogen atom or a Ci_2 linear alkyl group or a 2 nd R 3
C3-4 linear or branched alkyl group; or R a , when taken together, represent a C4-1o linear, branched or cyclic alkanediyl group and n is 1 or 2;
comprising the step of an alpha alkylation of an aldehyde of formula R-CH2-CHO wherein R has the same meaning than above with an olefin compound being a fused or bridged bicyclic or tricyclic compound with a methylene group in alpha of a ring junction;
said step being performed in the presence of a photoredox catalyst, a hydrogen atom transfer donor, a secondary amine and light.
Said alkylation is followed by a ring opening.
For the sake of clarity, by the expression "any one of its stereoisomers or a mixture thereof, or the similar, it is meant the normal meaning understood by a person skilled in the art, i.e. that the compound of formula (I) can be a pure enantiomer or diastereomer. In other words, the compound of formula (I) may possess several stereocenters and each of said stereocenter can have two different stereochemistries (e.g. R or S). The compound of formula (I) may even be in the form of a pure enantiomer or in the form of a mixture of enantiomers or diastereoisomers. The compound of formula (I) can be in a racemic form or scalemic form. Therefore the compound of formula (I) can be one stereoisomers or in the form of a composition of matter comprising, or consisting of, various stereoisomers.

4- isopropylcyclohex-l-en-l-yl)-2-methylpropanal and 3-((R)-4-isopropylcyclohex-l-en- l-yl)-2-methylpropanal in a 1 to 1 ratio, which should correspond to 3-(4- isopropylcyclohex-l-en-l-yl)-2-methylpropanal disclosed US 2013/0090390, is less strong and diffusive that the invention's composition of matter and loses its freshness and its cyclamen florally becoming more fatty-aldehydic and metallic.
When the odor of the invention's composition of matter is compared with that of the prior art compound, i.e. 3-(4-isopropylcyclohex-l-en-l-yl)-2-methylpropanal as reported in US 2013/0090390, the invention's composition of matter distinguishes themselves by a clearly more powerful and diffusive note having a water melon odor and a characteristic lactonic aspect reminiscent of the white peach and by lacking the aldehydic note characteristic of the prior art compound(s). Moreover the invention's composition of matter, contrary to the prior art, besides a lily of the valley - watery note, shows an odor that is allied with a texture of peach skin such as velvety and petali. The odors of the invention's composition of matter are also lacking, or not possessing significant sweet notes which are characteristic of the prior art compounds. Said differences lend the invention's composition of matter and the prior art compound to be each suitable for different uses, i.e. to impart different organoleptic impressions.
As mentioned above, the invention concerns the use of a composition of matter comprising compound of formula (I) and compound of formula (VII). So, another object of the present invention is the use of a composition of matter comprising compound of formula (I) and compound of formula (VII) as a perfuming ingredient. In other words, it concerns a method or a process to confer, enhance, improve or modify the odor properties
of a perfuming composition or of a perfumed article or of a surface, which method comprises adding to said composition or article an effective amount of at least composition of matter comprising compound of formula (I) and compound of formula (VII) preferably of formula (VIII), even more preferably of formula (IX), e.g. to impart its typical note.
By "use of a composition of matter" or similar, it has to be understood here also the use of any composition containing a mixture of compound (I) and compound (VII) and which can be advantageously employed in the perfumery industry.
Said compositions, which in fact can be advantageously employed as perfuming ingredients, are also an object of the present invention.
Therefore, another object of the present invention is a perfuming composition comprising:
i) as a perfuming ingredient, at least one invention's composition of matter as defined above;
ii) at least one ingredient selected from the group consisting of a perfumery carrier and a perfumery base; and
iii) optionally at least one perfumery adjuvant.
By "perfumery carrier" it is meant a material which is practically neutral from a perfumery point of view, i.e. that does not significantly alter the organoleptic properties of perfuming ingredients. Said carrier may be a liquid or a solid.
As liquid carrier one may cite, as non-limiting examples, an emulsifying system, i.e. a solvent and a surfactant system, or a solvent commonly used in perfumery. A detailed description of the nature and type of solvents commonly used in perfumery cannot be exhaustive. However, one can cite as non-limiting examples solvents such as butylene or propylene glycol, glycerol, dipropyleneglycol and its monoether, 1,2,3- propanetriyl triacetate, dimethyl glutarate, dimethyl adipate l,3-diacetyloxypropan-2-yl acetate, diethyl phthalate, isopropyl myristate, benzyl benzoate, benzyl alcohol, 2- (2- ethoxyethoxy)-l-ethano, tri-ethyl citrate or mixtures thereof, which are the most commonly used. For the compositions which comprise both a perfumery carrier and a perfumery base, other suitable perfumery carriers than those previously specified, can be also ethanol, water/ethanol mixtures, limonene or other terpenes, isoparaffins such as those known under the trademark Isopar (origin: Exxon Chemical) or glycol ethers and glycol ether esters such as those known under the trademark Dowanol (origin: Dow
Chemical Company), or hydrogenated castors oils such as those known under the trademark Cremophor RH 40 (origin: BASF).
Solid carrier is meant to designate a material to which the perfuming composition or some element of the perfuming composition can be chemically or physically bound. In general such solid carriers are employed either to stabilize the composition, or to control the rate of evaporation of the compositions or of some ingredients. The use of solid carrier is of current use in the art and a person skilled in the art knows how to reach the desired effect. However by way of non-limiting example of solid carriers, one may cite absorbing gums or polymers or inorganic materials, such as porous polymers, cyclodextrines, wood based materials, organic or inorganic gels, clays, gypsum talc or zeolites.
As other non-limiting examples of solid carriers, one may cite encapsulating materials. Examples of such materials may comprise wall-forming and plasticizing materials, such as mono, di- or trisaccharides, natural or modified starches, hydrocolloids, cellulose derivatives, polyvinyl acetates, polyvinylalcohols, proteins or pectins, or yet the materials cited in reference texts such as H. Scherz, Hydrokolloide: Stabilisatoren, Dickungs- und Geliermittel in Lebensmitteln, Band 2 der Schriftenreihe Lebensmittelchemie, Lebensmittelqualitat, Behr's Verlag GmbH & Co., Hamburg, 1996. The encapsulation is a well-known process to a person skilled in the art, and may be performed, for instance, by using techniques such as spray-drying, agglomeration or yet extrusion; or consists of a coating encapsulation, including coacervation and complex coacervation technique.
As other non-limiting examples of solid carriers, one may cite in particular the core-shell capsules with resins of aminoplast, polyamide, polyester, polyurea or polyurethane type or a mixture thereof (all of said resins are well known to a person skilled in the art) using techniques like phase separation process induced by polymerization, interfacial polymerization, coacervation or altogether (all of said techniques have been described in the prior art), optionally in the presence of a polymeric stabilizer or of a cationic copolymer.
Resins may be produced by the polycondensation of an aldehyde (e.g. formaldehyde, 2,2-dimethoxyethanal, glyoxal, glyoxylic acid or glycolaldehyde and mixtures thereof) with an amine, such as urea, benzoguanamine, glycoluryl, melamine, methylol melamine, methylated methylol melamine, guanazole and the like, as well as
mixtures thereof. Alternatively one may use preformed resins alkylolated polyamines such as those commercially available under the trademark Urac® (origin: Cytec Technology Corp.), Cymel® (origin: Cytec Technology Corp.), Urecoll® or Luracoll® (origin: BASF).
Others resins are the ones produced by the polycondensation of an a polyol, like glycerol, and a polyisocyanate, like a trimer of hexamethylene diisocyanate, a trimer of isophorone diisocyanate or xylylene diisocyanate or a Biuret of hexamethylene diisocyanate or a trimer of xylylene diisocyanate with trimethylolpropane (known with the tradename of Takenate®, origin: Mitsui Chemicals), among which a trimer of xylylene diisocyanate with trimethylolpropane and a Biuret of hexamethylene diisocyanate.
Some of the seminal literature related to the encapsulation of perfumes by polycondensation of amino resins, namely melamine based resins with aldehydes includes articles such as those published by K. Dietrich et al. in Acta Polymerica, 1989, vol. 40, pages 243, 325 and 683, as well as 1990, vol. 41, page 91. Such articles already describe the various parameters affecting the preparation of such core-shell microcapsules following prior art methods that are also further detailed and exemplified in the patent literature. US 4'396'670, to the Wiggins Teape Group Limited is a pertinent early example of the latter. Since then, many other authors have enriched the literature in this field and it would be impossible to cover all published developments here, but the general knowledge in encapsulation technology is very significant. More recent publications of pertinency, which disclose suitable uses of such microcapsules, are represented for example by the article of H.Y.Lee et al. in Journal of Microencapsulation, 2002, vol. 19, pages 559-569, international patent publication WO 01/41915 or yet the article of S. Bone et al. in Chimia, 2011, vol. 65, pages 177-181.
By "perfumery base", what is meant here is a composition comprising at least one perfuming co-ingredient.
Said perfuming co-ingredient is not of formula (I) or of formula (VII). Moreover, by "perfuming co-ingredient" it is meant here a compound, which is used in a perfuming preparation or a composition to impart a hedonic effect. In other words such a co- ingredient, to be considered as being a perfuming one, must be recognized by a person skilled in the art as being able to impart or modify in a positive or pleasant way the odor of a composition, and not just as having an odor.
The nature and type of the perfuming co -ingredients present in the base do not warrant a more detailed description here, which in any case would not be exhaustive, the skilled person being able to select them on the basis of his general knowledge and according to the intended use or application and the desired organoleptic effect. In general terms, these perfuming co-ingredients belong to chemical classes as varied as alcohols, lactones, aldehydes, ketones, esters, ethers, acetates, nitriles, terpenoids, nitrogenous or sulphurous heterocyclic compounds and essential oils, and said perfuming co-ingredients can be of natural or synthetic origin.

- Green ingredients: 2,4-Dimethyl-3-cyclohexene-l-carbaldehyde, 2-tert-butyl-l- cyclohexyl acetate, styrallyl acetate, allyl (2-methylbutoxy)acetate, 4-methyl-3-decen- 5-ol, diphenyl ether, (Z)-3-hexen-l-ol and/or l-(5,5-dimethyl-l-cyclohexen-l-yl)-4- penten-l-one;

A perfumery base according to the invention may not be limited to the above mentioned perfuming co-ingredients, and many other of these co-ingredients are in any case listed in reference texts such as the book by S. Arctander, Perfume and Flavor Chemicals, 1969, Montclair, New Jersey, USA, or its more recent versions, or in other works of a similar nature, as well as in the abundant patent literature in the field of perfumery. It is also understood that said co-ingredients may also be compounds known to release in a controlled manner various types of perfuming compounds.
By "perfumery adjuvant" it is meant here an ingredient capable of imparting additional added benefit such as a color, a particular light resistance, chemical stability, etc. A detailed description of the nature and type of adjuvant commonly used in
perfuming composition cannot be exhaustive, but it has to be mentioned that said ingredients are well known to a person skilled in the art. One may cite as specific non- limiting examples the following: viscosity agents (e.g. surfactants, thickeners, gelling and/or rheology modifiers), stabilizing agents (e.g. preservatives, antioxidant, heat/light and or buffers or chelating agents, such as BHT), coloring agents (e.g. dyes and/or pigments), preservatives (e.g. antibacterial or antimicrobial or antifungi or anti irritant agents), abrasives, skin cooling agents, fixatives, insect repellents, ointments, vitamins and mixtures thereof.
It is understood that a person skilled in the art is perfectly able to design optimal formulations for the desired effect by admixing the above mentioned components of a perfuming composition, simply by applying the standard knowledge of the art as well as by trial and error methodologies.
An invention's composition consisting of at least an invention's composition of matter and at least one perfumery carrier consists of a particular embodiment of the invention as well as a perfuming composition comprising at least one invention's composition of matter; i.e. at least one compound of formula (I) and at least one compound of formula (VII), at least one perfumery carrier, at least one perfumery base, and optionally at least one perfumery adjuvant.
According to a particular embodiment, the compositions mentioned above comprise more than one compound of formula (I) and more than one compound of formula (VII) and enable the perfumer to prepare accords or perfumes possessing the odor tonality of various compositions of matter of the invention, creating thus new building block for creation purposes.
For the sake of clarity, it is also understood that any mixture resulting directly from a chemical synthesis, e.g. a reaction medium without an adequate purification, in which the invention's composition of matter would be involved as a starting, intermediate or end-product could not be considered as a perfuming composition according to the invention as far as said mixture does not provide the inventive composition of matter in a suitable form for perfumery. Thus, unpurified reaction mixtures are generally excluded from the present invention unless otherwise specified.
The invention's composition of matter can also be advantageously used in all the fields of modern perfumery, i.e. fine or functional perfumery, to positively impart or modify the odor of a consumer product into which said mixture comprising compound (I)
and compound (VII) is added. Consequently, another object of the present invention consists of a perfumed consumer product comprising, as a perfuming ingredient, at least one invention's composition of matter, as defined above.
The invention's composition of matter can be added as such or as part of an invention's perfuming composition.
For the sake of clarity, "perfumed consumer product" is meant to designate a consumer product which delivers at least a pleasant perfuming effect to the surface or space to which it is applied (e.g. skin, hair, textile, or home surface). In other words, a perfumed consumer product according to the invention is a perfumed consumer product which comprises a functional formulation, as well as optionally additional benefit agents, corresponding to the desired consumer product and an olfactive effective amount of at least one invention's composition of matter. For the sake of clarity, said perfumed consumer product is a non-edible product.
The nature and type of the constituents of the perfumed consumer product do not warrant a more detailed description here, which in any case would not be exhaustive, the skilled person being able to select them on the basis of his general knowledge and according to the nature and the desired effect of said product.
Non-limiting examples of suitable perfumed consumer product include a perfume, such as a fine perfume, a splash or eau de parfum, a cologne or a shave or after- shave lotion; a fabric care product, such as a liquid or solid detergent, a fabric softener, a liquid or solid scent booster, a fabric refresher, an ironing water, a paper, a bleach, a carpet cleaner, a curtain-care product; a body-care product, such as a hair care product (e.g. a shampoo, a coloring preparation or a hair spray, a color care product, a hair shaping product, a dental care product), a disinfectant, an intimate care product; a cosmetic preparation (e.g. a skin cream or lotion, a vanishing cream or a deodorant or antiperspirant (e.g. a spray or roll on), a hair remover, a tanning or sun or after sun product, a nail product, a skin cleansing, a makeup); or a skin-care product (e.g. a soap, a shower or bath mousse, oil or gel, or a hygiene product or a foot/hand care products); an air care product, such as an air freshener or a "ready to use" powdered air freshener which can be used in the home space (rooms, refrigerators, cupboards, shoes or car) and/or in a public space (halls, hotels, malls, etc.); or a home care product, such as a mold remover, a furnisher care, a wipe, a dish detergent or a hard-surface (e.g. a floor, bath, sanitary or a
windows) detergent; a leather care product; a car care product, such as a polish, a wax or a plastic cleaner.
Some of the above-mentioned perfumed consumer products may represent an aggressive medium for the invention's composition of matter, so that it may be necessary to protect the latter from premature decomposition, for example by encapsulation or by chemically binding it to another chemical which is suitable to release the invention's ingredient upon a suitable external stimulus, such as an enzyme, light, heat or a change of pH.
The proportions in which the composition of matter according to the invention can be incorporated into the various aforementioned products or compositions vary within a wide range of values. These values are dependent on the nature of the article to be perfumed and on the desired organoleptic effect as well as on the nature of the co- ingredients in a given base when the compounds according to the invention are mixed with perfuming co-ingredients, solvents or additives commonly used in the art.
For example, in the case of perfuming compositions, typical concentrations are in the order of 0.001 % to 10 % by weight, or even more, of the composition of matter of the invention based on the weight of the composition into which they are incorporated. In the case of perfumed consumer product, typical concentrations are in the order of 0.0001 % to 1 % by weight, or even more, of the invention's composition of matter based on the weight of the consumer product into which they are incorporated.
Compound of formula (VII) is novel. So another object of the present invention is compound of formula (VII) as defined above. Preferably, the compound of formula (VII) is a compound of formula (VIII) as defined above. Even more preferably, the compound of formula (VII) is a compound of formula (IX) as defined above. As non- limiting examples of the invention's compound, one can cite 3-(6,6- dimethylbicyclo[3.1.1]heptan-2-yl)-2-methylpropanal in a form of anyone of its stereoisiomers.

The addition of 1000 parts by weight of 3-((S)-4-isopropylcyclohex- l-en- l-yl)-2- methylpropanal obtained in example 1 or of a mixture comprising 3-((S)-4- isopropylcyclohex-l-en- l-yl)-2-methylpropanal, 3-((lS,2R,5S)-6,6- dimethylbicyclo[3.1. l]heptan-2-yl)-2-methylpropanal and 3-((lS,2S,5S)-6,6- dimethylbicyclo[3.1.1]heptan-2-yl)-2-methylpropanal as obtained in example 2 to the above-described composition imparted to the latter distinctly fresh cyclamen and lily of the valley connotation and conferred more watery freshness to its top and bottom note. The composition comprising the invention's composition of matter as obtained in example 2 acquires a slightly more aqueous connotation than the composition comprising only 3-((S)-4-isopropylcyclohex-l-en-l-yl)-2-methylpropanal.
When, instead of 3-((S)-4-isopropylcyclohex- l-en-l-yl)-2-methylpropanal or of the invention' s composition of matter, the same amount of a mixture comprising 3-((S)-4- isopropylcyclohex- 1 -en- 1 -yl)-2-methylpropanal and 1 - (4-isopropyl- 1 -cyclohexen- 1 -yl)-2- butanone (Kharasch ketone) in a respective amount of 99.9wt% and 0.1wt%: was used, the composition acquired a fatty and unclean connotation. The composition became clearly less fresh and transparent.
When, instead of 3-((S)-4-isopropylcyclohex-l-en-l-yl)-2-methylpropanal or of the invention's composition of matter, the same amount of 3-((R)-4-isopropylcyclohex-l-en- l-yl)-2-methylpropanal was used, the composition acquired a slightly more fatty- aldehydic but also a more metallic connotation. The effect observed is rather weak and not positive.
When instead of 3-((S)-4-isopropylcyclohex-l-en-l-yl)-2-methylpropanal or of the invention's composition of matter, the same amount of Mugoxal® (3-(4-tert-butyl-l- cyclohexen-l-yl)propanal; origin: Firmenich SA, Geneva, Switzerland) was used, the composition acquired a distinctly elegant and sparkling lily of the valley white flower connotation but devoid of the lactonic white peach note.
When instead of 3-((S)-4-isopropylcyclohex-l-en-l-yl)-2-methylpropanal or of the invention's composition of matter, the same amount of (-)-(S)-3-(4-isopropylcyclohex-l- en-l-yl)propanal reported in US 2013/0090390, was used, the results was totally different as the composition acquired a distinctly clean aldehydic, citrus-lime and mandarine connotation which is classical in this kind of notes. Said compound imparted an aldehydic-citrus note instead of a floral note.
When instead of the 3-((S)-4-isopropylcyclohex-l-en-l-yl)-2-methylpropanal or of the invention's composition of matter was used the same amount of (+-)-2-methyl-3-[4-(2- methyl-2-propanyl)-l-cyclohexen-l-yl]propanal, the composition acquired a lily of the valley connotation reminiscent of Lilial® but devoid of the lactonic white peach note.
