The present invention relates to an organohalogen compound having a conjugated double bond, and a process for preparing an acetate compound and an alcohol compound thereof. The present invention also provides a (ω-halo-2-alkenyl)triphenylphosphonium halide compound used to synthesize the organohalogen compound.
The Cocoa pod borer (scientific name: Conopomorpha cramerella) belonging to the Gracillariidae family of Lepidoptera is known as one of the most serious pests of Cacao (scientific name: Theobroma cacao) grown in Southeast Asia. The Cocoa pod borer lays eggs on the surfaces of cocoa pods. The hatched larvae penetrate to the pod interior and feed on the pulp, thereby reducing cacao bean yield and quality.
Pesticides are commonly used to control the Cocoa pod borer, but are insufficiently effective because the larvae penetrate into the pod directly after hatching.
Due to the adverse effects of pesticides on the environment and human health, there is recently a demand for the development of new eco-friendly and safe pest control technology, such as mating disruption and mass trapping using insect sex pheromones. The development of such pest control technology requires economical industrial preparation of sex pheromones in large quantities.
The sex pheromone of the Cocoa pod borer is reported to be a mixture of sex pheromones having a component ratio of 60:40:6:4:10 of (4E,6E,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl acetate, (4E,6Z,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl acetate, (4E,6E,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl alcohol, (4E,6Z,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl alcohol, and n-hexadecyl alcohol (Non-Patent Literature 1 below).
Among these sex pheromones, the acetate compounds, (4E,6E,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl acetate and (4E,6Z,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl acetate, are widely known to be synthesized by using a Wittig reaction to construct the double bond of position 6. The acetate compounds thus obtained can be hydrolyzed to synthesize (4E,6E,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl alcohol and (4E,6Z,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl alcohol.
Non-Patent Literature 1 below, for example, reports a process for synthesizing (4E,6Z,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl acetate by preparing phosphorus ylide by reacting (4Z)-4-decenyltriphenylphosphonium bromide with potassium t-butoxide as a base, and then subjecting the phosphorus ylide to a Wittig reaction with (2E)-6-[(tetrahydropyranyl)oxy]-2-hexenal. Non-Patent Literature 1 also reports a process for synthesizing (4E,6E,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl acetate by isomerizing the geometric structure of the double bond of the obtained (4E,6Z,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl acetate under sunlight with iodine as a catalyst, and by separating the resulting mixture of isomers by using liquid chromatography or a cheletropic reaction with liquid sulfur dioxide.
Non-Patent Literature 2 below reports a process for synthesizing (4E,6Z,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl acetate similar to that of Non-Patent Literature 1; and a process for synthesizing (4E,6E,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl acetate by preparing an ylide by reacting (2E)-6-[(tetrahydropyranyl)oxy]-2-hexenyltriphenylphosphonium bromide with n-butyllithium as a base, and then subjecting the ylide to a Wittig reaction with (4Z)-4-decenal.

However, the main product obtained by the processes for synthesizing (4E,6Z,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl acetate described in Non-Patent Literature 1 and Non-Patent Literature 2 is a geometric isomer in which the geometric structure of the double bond moiety is (4E,6Z,10Z). To obtain the geometric isomer ratio of the sex pheromone of the Cocoa pod borer, it is necessary to separately synthesize (4E,6E,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl acetate and mix to obtain the desired geometric isomer ratio.
Furthermore, the processes for synthesizing (4E,6E,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl acetate described in Non-Patent Literature 1 are problematic in that the method of using liquid chromatography to separate (4E,6E,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl acetate from a mixture of isomers obtained by an isomerization reaction of (4E,6Z,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl acetate has an extremely low yield; and in the separation method using a cheletropic reaction with liquid sulfur dioxide, the sulfur dioxide is highly toxic, and the reaction does not progress well when scaled up.
Moreover, the process for synthesizing (4E,6E,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl acetate described in Non-Patent Literature 2 is problematic in that the use of an ignitable organolithium compound requires a reaction at a cryogenic temperature of −78° C.
Thus, it is impossible to economically and industrially prepare large quantities using conventional technology.
The present invention has been made in view of the aforementioned circumstances, and aims to solve the problems of conventional art, and provide an economic industrial process for preparing synthetic intermediates, (4E,6E,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl halide and (4E,6Z,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl halide, of the sex pheromone of the Cocoa pod borer.
The present invention also aims to provide an economic industrial process for preparing the sex pheromone, (4E,6E,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl acetate, (4E,6Z,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl acetate, (4E,6E,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl alcohol, and 4/99 (4E,6Z,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl alcohol, of the Cocoa pod borer by using the aforesaid organohalogen compound as an intermediate.

Examples of the solvent include water; halogen-based solvents such as methylene chloride, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, and 1,2-dichloroethane; ether solvents such as diethyl ether, di-n-butyl ether, di-t-butyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, 2-methyltetrahydrofuran, 4-methyltetrahydropyran, 1,4-dioxane, and diethyleneglycol dimethyl ether; hydrocarbon solvents such as hexane, heptane, benzene, toluene, and xylene; ketone solvents such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, isobutyl methyl ketone, and cyclohexanone; alcoholic solvents such as methyl alcohol, ethyl alcohol, n-propyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, isobutyl alcohol, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, and benzyl alcohol; nitrile solvents such as acetonitrile; and aprotic polar solvents such as N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetamide, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, 1,3-dimethyl-2-imidazolidinone, dimethyl sulfoxide, and hexamethylphosphoric triamide. Water, ether solvents, and alcoholic solvents are preferred. By using said water, ether solvents, and alcoholic solvents, a preferable reactivity may be ensured.
The solvent may be used alone or in combination thereof, if necessary, and may be optionally determined while considering the reactivity and/or the yield of the acetate compound (6). The solvent used may be one after purification of a commercial one or a commercial one as-is.
The amount of the solvent used may be optionally determined while considering the reactivity and/or the solubility of the acetate compound (6). The amount of the solvent is, for example, preferably 30 g to 10,000 g, more preferably 50 g to 5,000 g, and most preferably 100 g to 1,000 g, per mol of the acetate compound (6). By using said more preferred amount and said most preferred amount, a more preferred reactivity and/or economy and a most preferred reactivity and/or economy may be ensured.
The reaction temperature of the hydrolysis reaction may be optionally determined while considering the reactivity and/or by-production of an impurity of the acetate compound (6). The reaction temperature is, for example, preferably −30° C. to 250° C., more preferably 0° C. to 150° C., and most preferably 25° C. to 100° C. By using said more preferred reaction temperature and said most preferred reaction temperature, a more preferred reactivity and/or by-production of an impurity and a most preferred reactivity and/or by-production of an impurity may be ensured.
The reaction time of the hydrolysis reaction is preferably optimized, depending on the reactivity of the acetate compound (6) by monitoring the reaction progress with, for example, gas chromatography and/or thin layer chromatography and/or nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum to confirm the disappearance of the substrate, acetate compound (6). The reaction time is typically, for example, preferably 1 hour to 72 hours, more preferably 1 hour to 24 hours, and most preferably 1 hour to 12 hours. By using said more preferred reaction time and said most preferred reaction time, a more preferred yield and/or by-production of an impurity and a most preferred yield and/or by-production of an impurity may be ensured.
The alcohol compound (7) obtained by the hydrolysis reaction may be suitably isolated and/or purified in any purification method used in usual organic synthesis, such as distillation at a reduced pressure and/or various chromatography. Distillation at a reduced pressure is preferred. By using said distillation at a reduced pressure, preferable industrial economy may be ensured. When the target compound, alcohol compound (7), has a sufficient purity, the crude product comprising the alcohol compound (7) may be used as such, without purification.
Thus, the organohalogen compound (5) can be industrially prepared with good yield and with fewer steps without using toxic or ignitable starting materials and in an industrially feasible reaction temperature range by subjecting the (ω-halo-2-alkenyl)triphenylphosphonium halide compound (1) to a phosphorus ylide preparation reaction with alkali metal alkoxide (3) in the presence of lithium halide (2) to obtain a reaction product mixture, and then subjecting the reaction product mixture to a Wittig reaction with the aldehyde compound (4). The acetate compound (6) can be prepared from the organohalogen compound (5), and the alcohol compound (7) can be prepared from the acetate compound (6) with good yield and fewer steps.

The following Examples 2-1 to 2-17 describe preparation of an organohalogen compound of the following general formula (5) according to the following reaction formula.
Air in a reactor equipped with a stirrer, a condenser, and a thermometer was purged with nitrogen. (2E)-(6-chloro-2-hexenyl)triphenylphosphonium bromide (1:X1=Br, X2=Cl, n=1) (505.77 g: 1.10 mol, purity 98.2%) obtained as in Example 1-1, lithium bromide (LiBr) (2:X3=Br) (104.21 g, 1.20 mol), and tetrahydrofuran (THF) (1,800.0 g) were added to the reactor, and the liquid temperature was cooled to −10° C. to −5° C. Potassium t-butoxide (t-BuOK) (3:R1=t-Bu group, M=potassium) (122.31 g: 1.09 mol) was added to the mixture over 10 minutes at a liquid temperature of −5° C. to 0° C., and then allowed to react for 1.5 hours at a liquid temperature of −5° C. to 0° C.
After the completion of the reaction, the reaction liquid temperature was stabilized at −5° C., and (4Z)-4-decenal (4:R2=(3Z)-3-nonenyl group) (154.25 g, 1.00 mol, purity 97.5%) was added over 2 hours at a liquid temperature of −5° C. to 0° C.
The reaction mixture was stirred for 1 hour at a liquid temperature of 0° C. to 10° C. After the completion of the stirring, the reaction was quenched by adding water (600.0 g) to the reactor, and was separated into an organic layer and an aqueous layer. The solvent was removed from the resulting organic layer at a reduced pressure, followed by adding n-hexane (1,500.0 g), filtering, and separating into the filtrate and precipitated triphenylphosphine oxide. Filtrate was washed sequentially with an aqueous solution of 5% by weight sodium bicarbonate (800.0 g) and then an aqueous solution of 15% by weight sodium chloride (800.0 g), followed by removing the solvent from the organic layer at a reduced pressure.
The crude product thus obtained was purified by distillation at a reduced pressure to obtain (4E,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl chloride (5:X2=Cl, n=1, R2=(3Z)-3-nonenyl group) (224.26 g: 0.88 mol, yield 87.9%, purity 93.1%).

The above yields of (4E,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl chloride (5:X2=Cl, n=1, R2=(3Z)-3-nonenyl group) are represented as a mixture of the two types of cis-trans isomers.
The configurations of the two types of cis-trans isomers of (4E,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl chloride (5:X2=Cl, n=1, R2=(3Z)-3-nonenyl group) were determined by confirming the spin coupling constant between the double bonded hydrogen nuclei from 1H-NMR and two-dimensional NMR13C non-irradiated HSQC slice data. As a result, the cis-trans isomer detected at GC Retention time 14.78 minutes was considered to be (4E,6Z,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl chloride, and the cis-trans isomer detected at GC Retention time 15.61 minutes was considered to be (4E,6E,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl chloride.

The procedures of Example 3-1 were repeated, with the proviso that (11E)-11,13-hexadecadienyl chloride (5:X2=Cl, n=8, R2=ethyl group) (256.86 g: 1.00 mol, purity 88.5%) obtained as in Example 2-17 was used instead of (4E,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl chloride (5:X2=Cl, n=1, R2=(3Z)-3-nonenyl group) as the organohalogen compound (5) used in Example 3-1. (11E)-11,13-Hexadecadienyl acetate (6: n=8, R2=ethyl group) (204.73 g: 0.73 mol, yield 73.4%, purity 91.0%) was obtained as a result.
It was verified from the gas chromatography analysis that (11E)-11,13-hexadecadienyl acetate (6: n=8, R2=ethyl group) thus prepared had two types of cis-trans isomers [isomer formation ratio=43.8 (GC Retention time 19.24 min): 56.2 (GC Retention time 19.72 min)] at Retention times 19.24 minutes and 19.72 minutes, respectively. The above yields of (11E)-11,13-hexadecadienyl acetate (6: n=8, R2 ethyl group) are represented as a mixture of the two types of cis-trans isomers.
The configurations of the two types of cis-trans isomers of (11E)-11,13-hexadecadienyl acetate (6: n=8, R2=ethyl group) were determined by confirming the spin coupling constant between the double bonded hydrogen nuclei from 1H-NMR and two-dimensional NMR13C non-irradiated HSQC slice data. As a result, the cis-trans isomer detected at GC Retention time 19.24 minutes was considered to be (11E,13Z)-11,13-hexadecadienyl acetate, and the cis-trans isomer detected at GC Retention time 19.72 minutes was considered to be (11E,13E)-11,13-hexadecadienyl acetate.

The following Example 4-1 describes a preparation of an alcohol compound of the following general formula (7) according to the following reaction formula.
Air in a reactor equipped with a stirrer, a condenser, and a thermometer was purged with nitrogen. (4E,10Z)-4,6,10-Hexadecatrienyl acetate (6: n=1, R2=(3Z)-3-nonenyl group) (278.43 g: 1.00 mol, purity 97.3%) obtained as in Example 3-1 and methanol (CH3OH) (360.0 g) were placed in the reactor and heated to a liquid temperature of 40° C. to 45° C. An aqueous solution of 25% by weight sodium hydroxide (188.0 g) was added dropwise to the mixture over 2 hours at a liquid temperature of 45° C. to 60° C. After the completion of the dropwise addition, the reaction mixture was stirred for 4 hours at a liquid temperature of 50° C. to 60° C. After the completion of the stirring, the reaction mixture was diluted by adding water (200.0 g) to the reactor, and separated into an organic layer and an aqueous layer. The organic layer was washed with an aqueous solution of 20% by weight sodium chloride (250.0 g). The solvent was removed from the organic layer at a reduced pressure, after which the crude product thus obtained was purified by distillation at a reduced pressure to obtain (4E,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl alcohol (7: n=1, R2=(3Z)-3-nonenyl group) (231.7 g: 0.98 mol, yield 98.6%, purity 97.7%).
It was verified from the gas chromatography analysis that (4E,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl alcohol (7: n=1, R2=(3Z)-3-nonenyl group) thus prepared had two types of cis-trans isomers [isomer formation ratio=41.2 (GC Retention time 17.37 minutes: (4E,6Z,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl alcohol): 58.8 (GC Retention time 18.42 minutes: (4E,6E,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl alcohol) at Retention times 17.37 minutes and 18.42 minutes, respectively. The above yields of (4E,10Z)-4,6,10-hexadecatrienyl alcohol (7: n=1, R2=(3Z)-3-nonenyl group) are represented as a mixture of the two types of cis-trans isomers.
