The present invention relates to new intermediate compounds according to Formula I. The invention relates also to a method of preparing cyanine, merocyanine or oxonole dyes from the new intermediate compounds.
Cyanine, merocyanine or oxonole dyes are well known in the art. They are for example widely used in various imaging systems, in recording media such as optical discs or in diagnostic tools. For more information about the application of these dyes, see for example “COLOR CHEMISTRY: synthesis, properties and applications of organic dyes and pigments”, Heinrich Zollinger, VHCA & Wiley-VCH, third revised edition 2003.
Cyanine dyes are for example also used as infrared (IR) radiation absorbing dyes (IR-dyes) in lithographic printing plate precursors. These IR-dyes absorb IR radiation, used to imagewise expose the lithographic printing plate precursors, thereby triggering an imaging mechanism of the lithographic printing plate precursor, e.g. polymerization, coalescence of thermoplastic particles, solubilization or insolubilization, etc.
The preparation of cyanine dyes having a chloride atom as meso-substituent, for example according to the following formula wherein R represents a substituent and X− renders the dye neutral, is well known in the art.
For example in WO2002/24815 the following reaction is disclosed to prepare such a meso-chloor cyanine dye.
It may however be advantageous to introduce other substituents than chloride on the meso-position of a cyanine dye, for example to change the absorption characteristics, to improve the thermal or photostability, to change the solubility or to adjust the hydrophobicity/hydrophilicity of the cyanine dye.
Often, to prepare cyanine dyes with other meso-substituents than chloride, the corresponding meso-Cl cyanine dye is first prepared as intermediate dye, followed by an exchange of the chloride by the other substituent.
For example in WO2002/24815 cyanine dyes having as meso-substituent —O—Ar, —S—Ar, —NH—Ar or —NR—Ar, wherein Ar represents an arylgroup and R an alkyl group, are prepared from the corresponding meso-Cl cyanine dye.
EP-A 1 736 312 and WO2006/136543 disclose IR-dyes enabling the formation of a visible printout image upon imagewise exposure of lithographic printing plate precursors, comprising those IR-dyes, to IR radiation. The formation of a visible printout image is the result of a chemical transformation of specific substituents, preferably on the meso-position of the cyanine dyes, upon exposure is to IR-radiation. Again, these IR-dyes are all prepared by first preparing the corresponding meso-Cl IR-dye, followed by an exchange of the chloride with one of the specific substituents, either through a single step or a multistep reaction sequence.
In WO2004/052995, an intermediate product according to the following formula,
wherein L is for example a 5- or 6-membered ring and X− renders the intermediate neutral, is used to obtain in a “one pot process” cyanine dyes having as meso-substituent —S—Ar; —Se—Ar; —O—Ar; —NR′—Ar, —SO2—Ar or —(N-heterocycle), wherein Ar represents an aryl group and R′ represents a hydrogen or an alkyl group. However, during this “one pot process” the corresponding meso-Cl cyanine dye is also formed first in situ, whereupon the chloride is replaced by the above mentioned substituents.
The necessity to first synthesize the meso-Cl dye followed by an exchange of the chloride by the required substituent is a disadvantage of these preparation methods. During the synthesis of a meso-Cl cyanine dye unwanted side reactions may take place, as for example described in Eur. J. Org. Chem., 2007, pages 3102-3114; Tetrahedron Letters, 48, 2007, pages 5137-5142 and Chem. Mater., 19, 2007, pages 5325-5335.
Another disadvantage of first synthesizing the meso-Cl dye is the fact that at least one additional reaction step is necessary and moreover, that the exchange of the chloride by the required substituent may be cumbersome, e.g. resulting in unwanted side reactions and/or intermediate products, depending on the nature of the required substituent and the other structural parts of the cyanine dye. An example of unwanted side-reactions that might occur during the exchange of a meso-Cl by another substituent is described in for example Dye and Pigments, 46, 2000, 163-168.
A further disadvantage of first synthesizing the meso-Cl dye is the fact that during the exchange of the chloride by the required substituent, chloride anions become available in the reaction medium, and may interfere in the reaction. When cationic cyanine dyes are prepared, the chloride anions may become an unwanted counter ion of the dye formed, or may compete with other, more preferred, counter ions. Since the type of counter ion may have an impact on the outcome of the dye formation reaction, for example by influencing the solubility of the cationic dye formed, it may be advantageous to avoid the presence of chloride anions during dye formation.
In EP 738 707, an intermediate according to the following formula
is used wherein R″ and R′″ are independently an alkyl or aryl group, L is for example a 5- or 6-membered ring and X− renders the intermediate neutral. From this intermediate, a cyanine dye having as meso-substituent —NR″R′″ is prepared in a single step. Using these intermediates no longer necessitates the preparation of a corresponding meso-Cl dye as intermediate dye. These intermediates are prepared by reacting an aniline compound, an orthoester and an iminium cation, said iminium cation according to the following formula, wherein R″, R′″ independently represent an alkyl or aryl group and L is for example a 5- or 6-membered ring and X− renders the molecule neutral:
This reaction scheme is however not suitable to introduce substituents on the meso-position of a cyanine dye wherein R″ or R′″, instead of alkyl or aryl groups, are electron withdrawing groups because no stable iminium cation according to the formula mentioned above with such electron withdrawing groups can be formed. Therefore, this preparation method is for example not suitable to prepare, without going via the meso-Cl dye, the IR-dyes having the specific N-meso-substituents disclosed in EP-A 1 736 312 and WO2006/136543 described above.
EP-A 1 473 330 discloses a process for the synthesis of meso-substituted oxonole dyes wherein a α-ketomethylene compound is reacted with a pyridinium compound. This process however is only suitable to prepare “open chain” oxonole dyes. An analogue methodology is used to prepare “open chain” indolinine dyes in JP-A 2001/151752.
Introducing electron withdrawing groups on a N-meso-substituent of cyanine dyes may be of interest, as described in the above mentioned applications EP-A 1 736 312 and WO2006/136543, to realize IR cyanine dyes forming a visible printout image after IR-exposure. It may also be of interest to enable the introduction of connecting groups on the meso-position, making the cyanine dye more useful for example to label biomolecules. Moreover, it may also enable the introduction of substituents on the meso-position of cyanine dyes which, upon exposure to actinic light, undergo a chemical transformation thereby releasing functional ingredients. Such released functional ingredients may for example participate in the image formation of imaging systems: as initiator of a polymerization reaction in photopolymer printing plate precursors; as solubilization inhibitor or accelerator in printing plate precursors having an imaging mechanism based on an increased (positive working) or decreased (negative working) solubilization of an imaging layer in a developer after (IR) exposure; or as coalescence agent in printing plate precursors having as imaging mechanism the coalescence of thermoplastic particles upon exposure to IR radiation.
There is thus a need for a preparation method of N-meso substituted cyanine, merocyanine or oxonole dyes wherein the N-meso substituent comprises electron withdrawings groups, without first preparing the corresponding meso-chloor dye.
It is an object of the present invention to provide new intermediate compounds enabling the preparation of N-meso substituted cyanine, merocyanine or oxonole dyes wherein the N-meso substituent comprises electron withdrawing groups and wherein such N-meso substituents are introduced at the intermediate level. These intermediates enable the formation of dyes having in the meso-position N-substituents comprising electron withdrawing groups without the need for further derivatization of the meso-substitutent at the dye level. The method of preparation of the dyes provides high yields and a high level of purity of the end products and moreover offers an enhanced flexibility to prepare different dyes, i.e. cationic, anionic, zwitterionic, asymmetric or symmetric dyes, from the same intermediate without the need for further derivatization after chromophore formation, i.e. at the dye level. The method also offers the flexibility to select the counter ion of the dye to be formed at the intermediate level.

Whether a cationic, anionic or zwitterionic cyanine dye is preferred, may depend on the application in which the cyanine dye will be used, for example the solubility of the dye in aqueous or non-aqueous media. When T, T′, Rz and Rz′ are neutral substituents, the resulting cyanine dye according to Formulae XII, XVa, XVb or XVI will be cationic.

After stirring for 2 hours, a solution of 1% water in ethyl acetate (100 ml) is added. Filtration and drying provides 3.4 g of D-33 as a green powder (91%; Abs. Max.(methanol)=833 nm).
Preparation of D-31
To a suspension of compound (1) (6.27 g; 22 mmole) and INT-18 (5.21 g; 10 mmole) in dimethylacetamide (DMA) (50 ml) at room temperature is added triethylamine (5.5 ml; 40 mmole). After 1 hour, additional DMA (50 ml) is added. After stirring overnight at room temperature, filtration, digesting in ethyl acetate (100 ml), filtration and drying in vacuo provides 7.79 g of D-31 as a greenisch powder (74%; Abs. Max.(methanol)=807 nm).
Preparation of D-34
To a suspension of compound (1) (6.49 g; 22 mmole) and INT-19 (6.09 g; 10 mmole) in acetonitrile (30 ml) at room temperature are added acetic acid (1.7 ml; 30 mmole) and triethylamine (5.5 ml; 40 mmole).
After heating for 2 hours at 80° C. and cooling to room temperature, the raction product is precipitated by adding a solution of 1% water in ethyl acetate (60 ml). Filtration, digesting in ethyl acetate (50 ml), filtration and drying in vacuo results in 7.21 g of D-35 as a dark green powder (79%; Abs. Max.(methanol)=820 nm).
