The present invention relates to substituted bicyclo[3.3.1]nonanes and bicyclo[3.3.1]nonenes, having ambery, woody odour notes. This invention relates furthermore to a method of their production and to flavour and fragrance compositions comprising them.
In the fragrance industry there is always an ongoing demand for new compounds that to enhance or improve on odour notes, or impart new odour notes.
Surprisingly, we have found a novel class of compounds having much sought-after ambery woody odour notes and which may be produced from readily-available cheap and naturally available starting materials.
In a first aspect the invention refers to a compound of formula (I)
wherein
R is isopropyl or iso-propenyl;
R1 is hydrogen, methyl or ethyl;
R2 and R3 are independently hydrogen, methyl, or ethyl: or
R2 and R3 taken together is ethylidene; or
R2 and R3 taken together is a divalent radical (CH2)2 which forms cyclopropane together with the carbon atom to which they are attached;
R4 and R5 are independently hydrogen, hydroxy, C1 to C3 alkoxy, e.g. methoxy, ethoxy, or C2 to C3 acyloxy, e.g. acetoxy; or
R4 and R5 together with the carbon atom to which they are attached form a 1,3-dioxolane ring or a 1,3-dioxane ring; or
R4 and R5 together with the carbon atom to which they are attached form a carbonyl group;
the bond between C2 and C3 is a single bond, or the dotted line together with the bond between C2 and C3 represents a double bond; and
the bond between C7 and C8 is a single bond, or the dotted line together with the bond between C7 and C8 represents a double bond.
The compounds according to the present invention contain several chiral centres and as such may exist as a mixture of stereoisomers, or they may be resolved as isomerically pure forms. Resolving stereoisomers adds to the complexity of manufacture and purification of these compounds and so it is preferred to use the compounds as mixtures of their stereoisomers simply for economic reasons. However, if it is desired to prepare individual stereoisomers, this may be achieved according to methodology known in the art, e.g. preparative HPLC and GC or by stereoselective syntheses.
Particular preferred compounds of formula (I) are 5-isopropenyl-4,8-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-7-en-2-one; 4-ethyl-5-isopropenyl-8-methylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-7-en-2-one; 5-isopropenyl-3,4,8-trimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-7-en-2-one; 5-isopropenyl-3,3,4,8-tetramethylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-7-en-2-one; 5-isopropenyl-8,8-dimethoxy-2,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-2-ene; 4,8-dimethyl-5-isopropenylspiro[bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane-2,2′-[1,3]dioxolane]; 5-isopropenyl-4,8-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-7-en-2-ol; 5-isopropenyl-2,4,8-trimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-7-en-2-ol; 5-isopropyl-4,8-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-2-one, 5-isopropenyl-8-methylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-7-en-2-one, 5-isopropenyl-3,4,8-trimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-7-en-2-one, and 4,8-dimethyl-5-isopropenyl-8-methoxy-bicyclo[3.3.1]non-7-ene.
The compounds according to the present invention may be used alone or in combination with a base material. As used herein, the “base material” includes all known odourant molecules selected from the extensive range of natural and synthetic molecules currently available, such as essential oils, alcohols, aldehydes and ketones, ethers and acetals, esters and lactones, macrocycles and heterocycles, and/or in admixture with one or more ingredients or excipients conventionally used in conjunction with odourants in fragrance compositions, for example, carrier materials, and other auxiliary agents commonly used in the art.
The following list comprises examples of known odourant molecules, which may be combined with the compounds of the present invention:
The compounds of the present invention may be used in a broad range of fragrance applications, e.g. in any field of fine and functional perfumery, such as perfumes, household products, laundry products, body care products and cosmetics. The compounds can be employed in widely varying amounts, depending upon the specific application and on the nature and quantity of other odourant ingredients. The proportion is typically from 0.001 to 20 weight percent of the application. In one embodiment, compounds of the present invention may be employed in a fabric softener in an amount of from 0.001 to 0.05 weight percent. In another embodiment, compounds of the present invention may be used in fine perfumery in amounts of from 0.1 to 20 weight percent, more preferably between 0.1 and 5 weight percent. However, these values are given only by way of example, since the experienced perfumer may also achieve effects or may create novel accords with lower or higher concentrations.
The compounds of the present invention may be employed into the fragrance application simply by directly mixing the fragrance composition with the fragrance application, or they may, in an earlier step be entrapped with an entrapment material, for example, polymers, capsules, microcapsules and nanocapsules, liposomes, film formers, absorbents such as carbon or zeolites, cyclic oligosaccharides and mixtures thereof, or they may be chemically bonded to substrates, which are adapted to release the fragrance molecule upon application of an external stimulus such as light, enzyme, or the like, and then mixed with the application.
Thus, the invention additionally provides a method of manufacturing a fragrance application, comprising the incorporation of a compound of formula (I) as a fragrance ingredient, either by directly admixing the compound of formula (I) to the application or by admixing a fragrance composition comprising a compound of formula (I), which may then be mixed to a fragrance application, using conventional techniques and methods.
As used herein, “fragrance application” means any product, such as fine perfumery, e.g. perfume and Eau de Toilette; household products, e.g. detergents for dishwasher, surface cleaner; laundry products, e.g. softener, bleach, detergent; body care products, e.g. shampoo, shower gel; and cosmetics, e.g. deodorant, vanishing creme, comprising an odourant. This list of products is given by way of illustration and is not to be regarded as being in any way limiting.
Compounds of formula (I) wherein R4 and R5 together with the carbon atom to which they are attached form a carbonyl group (see formula (II) below) may be prepared by the reaction of α-pinene with α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids or derivatives thereof such as alkenoyl halogenide, e.g. crotonyl chloride, crotonyl bromide and pentenoyl chloride; or alkenoyl anhydride, for example crotonic anhydride, in the presence of a catalytic amount of an acid, such as Lewis acid or Bronsted acid.
Surprisingly we have found that certain compounds of formula (I) may also be prepared by reacting α-pinene with β,γ-unsaturated carboxylic acids or β-hydroxy carboxylic acids, resulting in a ketone of formula (II) in the presence of a catalytic amount of an acid. It is believed that, due to the acidic conditions, both the β,γ-unsaturated carboxylic acids and the β-hydroxy carboxylic acids will transfer to the corresponding α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids, which then will react with α-pinene.
The resulting compounds of formula (II) may be alkylated to give further compounds of formula (I). Still further compounds of formula (I) may be prepared by reduction and/or acylation of the carbonyl group at C2 or by Grignard reaction and acylation of the carbonyl group at C2. Still further compounds of formula (I) may be prepared by hydrogenation.
Compounds of formula (I) wherein either R2 or R3 is not hydrogen, and R4 and R5 together with the carbon atom to which they are attached form a carbonyl group may also be prepared by the reaction of α-pinene with α,β-unsaturated α-alkyl carboxylic acids, e.g. 2-methylcrotonyl chloride, 2-ethylcrotonyl chloride, 2-methylcrotonic anhydride, in the presence of a catalytic amount of an acid.
Optically pure compounds of formula (I) and enantiomer mixtures of a compound of formula (I) enriched in one enantiomer may be synthesised by starting from the optically pure α-pinene or from an enantiomer mixture enriched in either (S)-(+)-α-pinene or (R)-(−)-α-pinene respectively.
The invention is now further described with reference to the following non-limiting examples.
a) A mixture of 30 g α-pinene ((1S)-(−)/(1R)-(+) 90:10, 0.22 mol), 67.8 g crotonic anhydride (0.44 mol, 2 eq.), and 4.95 g zinc bromide (0.021 mol, 0.1 eq.) was heated at 95° C. for 7 h. The reaction mixture was then treated with 50 ml H2O and heated 3 h at reflux. Extraction with Et2O, drying of the org. phases with Na2SO4 followed by Vigreux-distillation and FC (Flash Chromatography) (SiO2, hexane/Et2O 95:5) gave 990 mg (2%) of compound 1. The boiling point of the end product is 80° C. at 0.07 torr (0.09 mbar).
