Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to a novel method for producing an isocyanuric acid derivative having a hydrocarbon group as a substituent to be bonded to a nitrogen atom.


BACKGROUND ART

An isocyanuric acid derivative and a method for synthesizing the same have been conventionally known. For example, Non-Patent Document 1 describes a method for synthesizing a monoalkyl isocyanurate on pp. 393-396. Non-Patent Document 4 describes the content of p. 394 of Non-Patent Document 1 in detail, and on p. 3618, described that a reaction involved in synthesis of monoalkylisocyanuric acid derivative having a CH3 group and a sec-C4H9 group is performed under a high-temperature condition of 250° C. Non-Patent Document 2 discloses a research result in which among 2,4,6-tris(benzyloxy)-1,3,5-triazine, 4,6-bis(benzyloxy)-1,3,5-triazine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione, and 6-(benzyloxy)-1,3,5-triazine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione, 6-(benzyloxy)-1,3,5-triazine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione is a benzylating reagent exhibiting the most excellent reactivity. Non-Patent Document 3 describes N-methylation using tetrabutylammonium isocyanurate. In the N-methylation, all mono-, di-, and tri-methyl isocyanurates are produced. Therefore, in a method described in Non-Patent Document 3, a mixture of the three types of N-methylated isocyanurates is always produced nonselectively.


An isocyanuric acid derivative is used in various applications. For example, Patent Document 1 describes an anti-reflective coating forming composition for lithography containing an isocyanuric acid derivative. Patent Document 2 describes an adhesives composition containing a polymer that is obtained by polymerizing an isocyanuric acid derivative and a monomer other than the derivative.

That is, an aspect of the present invention is a method for producing an isocyanuric acid derivative having a hydrocarbon group comprising a first step of obtaining a compound of the following formula (1) from the compound of formula (0), a second step of obtaining a compound of the following formula (2) from the compound of formula (1), a third step of obtaining a compound of the following formula (3) from the compound of formula (2), and a fourth step of obtaining a compound of the following formula (4) from the compound of formula (3):

MODES FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

The method for producing an isocyanuric acid derivative having a hydrocarbon group according to the present invention includes the first to fourth steps. Therefore, the compound of formula (4) in which a hydrocarbon group is introduced as a substituent bonded to a nitrogen atom in isocyanuric acid is obtained. In formula (4), R is a C1-10 hydrocarbon group introduced. The hydrocarbon group may be a linear, branched, or cyclic hydrocarbon group, and have at least one double bond or triple bond. When the hydrocarbon group is an alkyl group, examples of the alkyl group include methyl group, ethyl group, n-propyl group, isopropyl group, n-butyl group, isobutyl group, n-pentyl group, n-hexyl group, n-heptyl group, n-octyl group, n-pentyl group, n-nonyl group, n-decyl group, cyclohexylmethyl group, and cyclopentylmethyl group. Examples of the hydrocarbon group except for the alkyl group include benzyl group, allyl group, and propargyl group.


In the first step of the production method of the present invention, the compound of formula (0) is reacted with benzyl alcohol in which at least one hydrogen atom in a benzene ring may be substituted with methyl group in the presence of a base such as a tertiary amine. By this reaction, the compound of formula (1) in which two substituents X1s among three substituents X1s in the compound of formula (0) are substituted with benzyloxy group derived from the benzyl alcohol can be obtained. For example, when as the compound of formula (0), cyanuric chloride is used, the compound of formula (1) (wherein X1 is a chlorine atom) in which two chlorine atoms among three chlorine atoms in cyanuric chloride are substituted with benzyloxy group can be obtained by the aforementioned reaction. In order to preferentially obtain the compound of formula (1), the benzyl alcohol and the base such as a tertiary amine are each used preferably in an amount of 2.7 molar equivalents to 5.0 molar equivalents, and more preferably in an amount of 4.0 molar equivalents to 5.0 molar equivalents, relative to 1.0 molar equivalent of the compound of formula (0) such as cyanuric chloride. When the benzyl alcohol and the base such as a tertiary amine are each used in an amount of less than 2.0 molar equivalents relative to 1.0 molar equivalent of the compound of formula (0), a compound in which one substituent X1 among three substituents X1s in the compound of formula (0) is substituted with benzyloxy group derived from the benzyl alcohol is preferentially by-produced as compared with the compound of formula (1) that is a target. Therefore, the yield of the compound of formula (1) is decreased.


Preferable examples of the tertiary amine used in the aforementioned reaction include diisopropylethylamine, triethylamine, tributylamine, and 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]-7-undecene. When the reaction is carried out in a solution, a solvent is preferably halogenated alkyls. Examples of the halogenated alkyls include chloroform, dichloromethane, carbon tetrachloride, and dichloroethane.


Specifically, the aforementioned reaction is started by adding dropwise a mixed solution of the benzyl alcohol in which at least one hydrogen atom in a benzene ring may be substituted with methyl group, the base such as a tertiary amine, and the halogenated alkyls to a mixed solution of the compound of formula (0) such as cyanuric chloride, and the halogenated alkyls. The temperature during the dropwise addition is preferably 0° C. to 5° C. When the addition dropwise is carried out at a temperature of higher than 5° C., a by-product is produced with the compound of formula (1) that is a target. Therefore, the purity and yield of the compound of formula (1) are decreased. The reaction temperature after the dropwise addition is not particularly limited, and is usually 0° C. to 40° C., and preferably 20° C. to 30° C. The reaction time is usually 12 hours to 24 hours, and preferably 15 hours to 18 hours.

The amount of a solvent used in the washing is preferably 0.5 to 3.0 times, and more preferably 2.0 times the mass of the compound of formula (0) (e.g., cyanuric chloride).

The temperature during the addition is preferably 0° C. to 5° C. The reaction temperature after the addition is not particularly limited, and is usually 0° C. to 40° C., and preferably 20° C. to 30° C.

The washing time is usually 10 minutes to 1 hour, and preferably 10 minutes to 30 minutes.


In the third step of the production method of the present invention, the compound of formula (2) is reacted with the compound of formula (5), (6), (7), or (8) in the presence of an alkali metal carbonate. The amount of the compound of formula (5), (6), (7), or (8) used is preferably 1.0 molar equivalent to 1.5 molar equivalents, and more preferably 1.25 molar equivalents, relative to 1.0 molar equivalent of the compound of formula (2). The amount of the alkali metal carbonate used is preferably 1.0 molar equivalent to 1.5 molar equivalents, and more preferably 1.25 molar equivalents, relative to 1.0 molar equivalent of the compound of formula (2). The temperature during the reaction is not particularly limited, and is usually 0° C. to 40° C., and preferably 20° C. to 30° C. The reaction time is usually 30 minutes to 2 hours, and preferably 30 minutes to 1 hour.

When the compound of formula (5), (6), (7), or (8) used in the third step of the production method of the present invention is selected, the type of hydrocarbon group introduced as a substituent to be bonded to a nitrogen atom in isocyanuric acid is determined. For example, as the compound of formula (5), (6), (7), or (8), an alkylating agent having a methyl group is used to introduce the methyl group, or an alkylating agent having an ethyl group is used to introduce the ethyl group.


A reaction product obtained by the aforementioned reaction is subjected to a separation operation, resulting in concentration.

20.00 g of cyanuric chloride (available from Tokyo Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.) and 120.00 g of chloroform were mixed, and the mixture was cooled to 0° C. with stirring. To the mixture, a mixed solution of 46.91 g of benzyl alcohol (available from Kanto Chemical Co., Inc.), 56.07 g of diisopropylethylamine, and 60.00 g of chloroform was added dropwise.
