This application is a Divisional of co-owned application no. 11/360,309, filed on Feb. 23, 2006.
The invention is directed to alpha,omega-difunctional aldaramides and processes for preparing them.
The concept of using biomass-derived materials to produce other useful products has been explored since man first used plant materials and animal fur to make clothing and tools. Biomass derived materials have also been used for centuries as adhesives, solvents, lighting materials, fuels, inks/paints/coatings, colorants, perfumes and medicines. Recently, people have begun to explore the possibility of using “refined biomass” as starting materials for chemical conversions leading to novel high value-in-use products. Over the past two decades, the cost of renewable biomass materials has decreased to a point where many are competitive with those derived from petroleum. In addition, many materials that cannot be produced simply from petroleum feedstocks are potentially available from biomass or refined biomass. Many of these unique, highly functionalized, molecules would be expected to yield products unlike any produced by current chemical processes. “Refined biomass” is purified chemical compounds derived from the first or second round of plant biomass processing. Examples of such materials include cellulose, sucrose, glucose, fructose, sorbitol, erythritol, and various vegetable oils.
A particularly useful class of refined biomass is that of aldaric acids. Aldaric acids, also known as saccharic acids, are diacids derived from naturally occurring sugars. When aldoses are exposed to strong oxidizing agents, such as nitric acid, both the aldehydic carbon atom and the carbon bearing the primary hydroxyl group are oxidized to carboxyl groups. An attractive feature of these aldaric acids includes the use of very inexpensive sugar based feedstocks, which provide low raw material costs and ultimately could provide low polymer costs if the proper oxidation processes are found. Also, the high functional density, of these aldaric acids, provides unique, high value opportunities, which are completely unattainable at a reasonable cost from petroleum-based feedstocks.
Aldaric acid derivatives, because of their high functionality, are potentially valuable monomers and crosslinking agents.
Diaminoaldaramides, dihydroxyaldaramides, bis(alkoxycarbonylalkyl)aldaramides, and bis(carboxyalkyl)aldaramides are examples of monomers and crosslinking agents that could be prepared. No simple method exists for the preparation of all of these. Hoagland (Carbohydrate Res., 98 (1981) 203-208) studied the kinetics of the aminolysis of diethyl galactarate. This procedure would not be expected to produce the same results using the equivalent lactone or dilactone. Reaction of a polyhydroxy diester or dilactone with a diamine has the potential to produce oligomers and polymer and to undergo various side reactions. Gorman and Folk (J. Biol. Chem. 1980, 255, 1175-1180) employ a 4-step sequence to protect one end of ethylenediamine, react with diethyl tartrate, and deprotect. It would be expected that an aminoester would not react with another ester without competing reaction with itself to form oligopeptides. Pecanha, et al. (WO02/42412) employ a four-step sequence to protect the hydroxyl groups of tartaric acid, activate the carboxyl groups as acyl chloride groups, react with an amino acid ester, and deprotect.
Applicants have discovered new difunctional aldaramides that can be used as monomers or polymer crosslinkers, and processes for preparing the aldaramides.

To a 250-mL 3-neck round-bottom flask equipped with a heating mantle, reflux condenser, nitrogen inlet, and overhead stirrer were added 100 mL of a solution of LiCl (3.8 wt %) in dimethylacetamide (DMAC) and 10.0 g (0.042 mol) of dimethyl galactarate (DMG). The mixture was heated to 55° C. for about 80 minutes, after which a cloudy yellow mixture was obtained. To this stirred mixture was added 48.0 g (0.414 mol) of hexamethylenediamine (HMD). Within 5 minutes, the reaction temperature increased to 60° C., and a clear yellow solution was obtained. After an additional 5 minutes of stirring, a pale yellow precipitate formed. The reaction mixture was heated at 55° C. for an additional 5 hours. It was then left to cool overnight, after which the precipitate was collected by filtration, washed three times with THF, and dried in a vacuum oven at 60° C. to yield 26.4 g of crude product as white crystals. NMR revealed a large excess of HMD present. The crude product was recrystallized from ethanol and dried in a vacuum oven at 80° C. to yield 16.3 g (96%) purified product. Tm (DSC): 178° C.; Tdec (TGA): 160° C. (onset).
To a 250-mL 3-neck round-bottom flask equipped with a heating mantle, reflux condenser, nitrogen inlet, and overhead stirrer were added 100 mL of a solution of LiCl (3.8 wt %) in DMAC and 10.0 g (0.042 mol) of dimethyl galactarate (DMG). The mixture was heated to 55° C. for about 80 minutes. Ethylenediamine (26.0 g, 0.433 mol) was added. The mixture was heated at 55° C. for 5 hours and then cooled to room temperature. The resulting precipitate was collected by filtration, washed three times with THF, and dried in a vacuum oven at 60° C. to yield 18.60 g of crude product as white crystals. Recrystallization from ethanol and drying in a vacuum oven at 80° C. gave 10.93 g (89%) of purified product. Tm (DSC): 217° C.; Tdec (TGA): 190° C. (onset).
To an oven-dried 20-mL scintillation vial equipped with a magnetic stir bar, in a dry box, were added D-glucaro-1,4:6,3-dilactone (GDL, 0.87 g, 4.98 mmol) dissolved in 3 mL of methanol followed by a solution of HMD (2.32 g, 19.9 mmol) in 5 mL of methanol. The mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 18 hours. Additional methanol (10 mL) was added and the thick slurry was stirred at ambient temperature for an additional 5 days. The mixture was filtered and washed with methanol (30 mL) before vacuum drying to give an off-white solid (0.92 g, 45% yield). 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) □ 7.81 (br, 1H), 7.57 (t, J=5.5 Hz, 1H), 3.97 (d, J=3.7 Hz, 1H), 3.92 (d, J=6.3 Hz, 1H), 3.86 (t, J=3.4 Hz, 1H), 3.68 (dd, J=3.0, 6.3 Hz, 1H), 3.41 (br, 8H), 3.07 (m, 4H), 2.51 (t, J=6.5 Hz, 4H), 1.41 (m, 4H), 1.26 (m, 12H). 13C NMR (75 MHz, DMSO-d6) □ 173.23, 172.27, 73.40, 73.14, 71.79, 70.57, 41.64 (2C), 38.45, 38.36, 33.24 (2C), 29.32, 29.22, 26.42 (2C), 26.27 (2C).
To a 250-mL 3-neck round-bottom flask equipped with a heating mantle, reflux condenser, nitrogen inlet, and overhead stirrer were added 50 mL of DMAC and 17.2 g (0.287 mol) of ethylenediamine. To the homogeneous solution formed was added, at room temperature, a solution of 5.0 g (0.0287 mol) of GDL dissolved in 25 mL of DMAC. At this point, heat was applied to the resulting homogeneous reaction mixture. When the temperature of the solution reached 38° C. after about 15 minutes of heating, a precipitate began to develop. The reaction temperature was increased to 50° C., and was held there for an additional 24 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled and then poured into about 100 mL of THF. The resulting precipitate was filtered, washed with THF, and dried in a vacuum oven at 80° C. to yield 6.92 g (82%) of a creamy white solid. Tm (DSC): 181° C.; Tdec (TGA): 170° C. (onset).
To 48.9 g (814 mmol) of ethylenediamine dissolved in 400 mL of methanol were added dropwise, at room temperature, 22.18 g (127 mmol) of GDL dissolved in 100 mL of methanol. After stirring overnight at room temperature, the mixture was filtered. The precipitate was washed with methanol and dried under vacuum to give 33.1 g (89%) of a white solid that was an approximately 87:13 mixture of the 2:1 and 3:2 adducts of ethylenediamine and GDL. 1H NMR of N1,N6-bis(2-aminoethyl)-
When the reaction was run similarly except using 10 mole equivalents of ethylenediamine relative to GDL, the ratio of 2:1 adduct to 3:2 adduct increased to about 95:5.
In a dry box, m-phenylenediamine (MPD, 0.92 g, 8.51 mmol) and DMG (0.51 g, 2.13 mmol) were weighed into an oven-dried 50-mL Schlenk tube. A metal spatula was used to grind the crystalline MPD and homogenize the reaction mixture. The mixture was heated under an atmosphere of nitrogen to 130° C. for 17 hours. 1H and 13C NMR (DMSO-d6) indicated >95% conversion to the desired product with the remainder being methyl N-(3-aminophenyl)galactaramate. Heating the mixture to 130° C. for an additional three days increased conversion, but not to completion. Washing the reaction mixture with methylene chloride (85 mL) removed most of the excess MPD and halved the amount of methyl N-(3-aminophenyl)galactaramate. Subsequent recrystallization from DMAC/ether removed essentially all of the MPD and methyl N-(3-aminophenyl)galactaramate. 1H NMR (500 MHz, DMSO-d6) □ 9.02 (s, 2H), 7.00 (s, 2H), 6.92 (t, J=7.9 Hz, 2H), 6.73 (d, J=8.0 Hz, 2H), 6.27 (d, J=8.0 Hz, 2H), 5.56 (d, J=7.1 Hz, 2H), 5.03 (br, 2H), 4.62 (m, 2H), 4.27 (d, J=7.0 Hz, 2H), 3.88 (m, 2H). 13C NMR (126 MHz, DMSO-d6) □ 172.06, 149.17, 139.16, 129.08, 109.65, 107.34, 105.00, 71.39, 71.21.

A metal spatula was used to grind the crystalline MPD and homogenize the reaction mixture. The vial was heated to 100° C. for 17 hours and then cooled to room temperature. The resulting glassy solid was broken up and extracted with methylene chloride to remove excess MPD. 1H NMR (500 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 9.36 (s, 1H), 9.11 (s, 1H), 7.041 (s, 1H), 7.037 (s, 1H), 6.95 (t, J=8.0 Hz, 1H), 6.94 (t, J=8.0 Hz, 1H), 6.78 (m, 2H), 6.30 (m, 2H), 4.23 (d, J=3.7 Hz, 1H), 4.11 (d, J=7.1 Hz, 1H), 4.05 (t, J=3.5 Hz, 1H), 3.84 (dd, J=3.7, 6.5 Hz, 1H). 13C NMR (126 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 171.33, 170.83, 148.93, 148.88, 139.23, 138.94, 128.90, 128.84, 109.62, 109.52, 107.52, 107.46, 105.19, 105.11, 73.75, 73.18, 72.53, 70.53.
In a dry box, a solution of 4-aminobenzylamine (5.05 mL, 44.5 mmol) in DMSO (25 mL) was added to a slurry of DMG (5.05 g, 21.2 mmol) in DMSO (40 mL) in an oven-dried 200-mL round-bottom flask equipped with a magnetic stirbar. The resulting mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for five days and then filtered. The collected solid was washed with DMSO (10 mL) followed by methanol (75 mL) and then dried under vacuum to give a white solid (4.86 g). Water (400 mL) was added to the filtrate from the original reaction, and the mixture was stirred for 1 hour and then filtered. The recovered solid was washed with water (200 mL) followed by methanol (150 mL) and then dried under vacuum to give a second crop of white solid (2.93 g, 88% overall yield, 97+ % purity). 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ 7.72 (t, J=5.8 Hz, 2H), 6.94 (d, J=8.1 Hz, 4H), 6.49 (d, J=8.2 Hz, 4H), 5.19 (d, J=7.0 Hz, 2H), 4.89 (s, 4H), 4.38 (d, J=6 Hz, 2H), 4.16 (m, 6H), 3.82 (d, J=5.8 Hz, 2H). 13C NMR (DMSO-d6) δ 173.0, 147.4, 128.2, 126.3, 113.7, 70.8, 70.7, 41.7.
In a dry box, 4-aminobenzylamine (7.33 mL, 64.7 mmol) was weighed into an oven-dried, 100-mL round-bottom flask equipped with a magnetic stirbar. Methanol (7 mL) and then a solution of GDL (5.00 g, 28.7 mmol) in methanol (10 mL) were added. Significant precipitation required addition of methanol (60 mL) to maintain stirring. The resulting slurry was stirred at ambient temperature for 24 hours and then filtered. The precipitate was washed with methanol (160 mL) and dried under vacuum to give a white solid (11.03 g, 92% crude yield). 1H and 13C NMR indicated that the product contained 4 mole % methyl N-(4-aminobenzyl)-
