Description

FIELD
The present invention relates to preparation of angelic acid or esters thereof. More particularly, it is concerned with angelic acid or esters thereof, perfume compositions and novel esters of angelic acid.
BACKGROUND

Another object of the invention is to provide novel perfume compositions.
A further object of the invention is to provide novel esters of angelic acid.
DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION

In the above formulae (1) and (2), R is H or an ester radical.
According to the invention, there are also provided perfume compositions containing angelic acid or an ester thereof and novel esters of angelic acid represented by the formulae (3)-(15) below. ##STR4##
Dotted lines in the above general formulae indicate that a double bond exists on either of the lines.
PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
Tiglic acid or esters of tiglic acid represented by the general formula (1) which are used as the starting material in the process of the present invention are compounds contained in natural essential oils, for example, in essential oil of gardenia. The compounds are of fragrance per se and are useful as perfume materials. There are also known several processes by which these compounds are chemically prepared. Tiglic acid and certain esters thereof chemically prepared are commercially available. A typical process for the preparation of tiglic acid and esters thereof is described, for example, by R. E. Buckles in Chem. Rev., 55, 659-677 (1955).
These compounds may therefore be made available by known means for the process of the invention.
Their ester radicals in tiglic esters, that is, R in the above-mentioned general formula (1) which in nature do not participate in the reaction may be any one, and it is usually preferred to employ a substituted or unsubstituted saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbon radical containing not more than 20 carbon atoms. As examples of them are mentioned saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbon radicals such as an alkyl group, a cycloalkyl group, an alkenyl group, a cycloalkenyl group or an aralkyl group or substituted hydrocarbon radicals containing, for example, a hydroxyl group, an alkoxy group or an ester group.
As examples of the esters of tiglic acid used in the process of the invention are mentioned, but not limited to, the methyl ester, the ethyl ester, the n-butyl ester, the iso-butyl ester, the sec-butyl ester, the n-amyl ester, the iso-amyl ester, the neopentyl ester, the 2-methylbutyl ester, the n-hexyl ester, the 3-methylpentyl ester, the 2-methyl-2-propenyl ester, the cis-3-hexenyl ester, the gelanyl ester, the neryl ester, the linalyl ester, the citronellyl ester, the 2-methyl-2-butenyl ester, the trans-3-hexenyl ester, the 3-methyl-2-butenyl ester, the .beta.-phenylethyl ester, the .alpha.-phenylethyl ester, the furfuryl ester.
Since the process of the invention involves a geometrical isomerization reaction of the double bond, those containing an ester radical capable of forming isomers by the reaction may afford a complex mixture as the reaction product. The lower alkyl esters are particularly preferred due to easiness in the reaction and availability.
The organic sulfinic acid used as the catalyst in the process of the invention is a compound represented by the general formula (16) below. n in the general formula may be any integer not less than 1, and R' is usually a hydrocarbon radical such as an aryl or alkyl group. However, it may contain other functional groups provided that the group does not interfere with the catalytic action. ##STR5## The compounds generally employed are arylsulfinic acids or alkylsulfinic acids. As the arylsulfinic acid are mentioned p-toluenesulfinic acid, benzenesulfinic acid, chlorobenzenesulfinic acid, .beta.-naphthalenesulfinic acid and the like. As the alkylsulfinic acid are mentioned methylsulfinic acid, ethylsulfinic acid, propylsulfinic acid, butylsulfinic acid, pentylsulfinic acid, hexylsulfinic acid, heptylsulfinic acid, octylsulfinic acid, nonylsulfinic acid, decylsulfinic acid, dodecylsulfinic acid, octadecylsulfinic acid, eicosylsulfinic acid and the like. However, any of the organic sulfinic acids that possess the catalytic activity may be employed, and the catalysts are not limited to the above-mentioned examples. Such organic sulfinic acid can be synthesized, for example, by the methods described in J. Am. Chem. Soc., 50, 794 (1928) or J. Am. Chem. Soc., 72, 1215 (1950).
Most preferred organic sulfinic acids for use are p-toluenesulfinic acid and benzenesulfinic acid, which are readily available on the market. They can also be prepared in a convenient manner by neutralization of less expensive commercially available sodium salts of the sulfinic acid. The organic sulfinic acid is used at a concentration from 0.01% to 10% (of the tiglic acid or the ester of tiglic acid present in the reaction system) and more preferably at a concentration from 0.05% to 2%.
The reaction is carried out at a temperature in the range from room temperature to 200.degree. C. More preferably, however, it is carried out at 50.degree. C.-170.degree. C. in consideration of the reaction rate and inactivation of the catalyst.
Whereas the reaction proceeds in a variety of solvents such as saturated hydrocarbon solvents, aromatic hydrocarbon solvents, ether solvents, amide solvents and sulfoxide solvents, it proceeds satisfactorily even in the absence of solvent.
The product finally obtained in the isomerization reaction according to the present invention is a thermal equilibrium mixture. Content of angelic acid or an ester of angelic acid, which is thermally unstable owing to its being of a (Z)-form structure, is lower being not more than 10% of the thermal equilibrium mixture. On the other hand, angelic acid or an ester of angelic acid has a lower boiling point than that of tiglic acid or a corresponding ester of tiglic acid. Taking advantage of that fact, angelic acid or an ester of angelic acid can efficiently be produced by continuously isomerizing tiglic acid or an ester of tiglic acid with an organic sulfinic acid and subjecting the resulting mixture to a continuous distillation operation to isolate the angelic acid or the ester of angelic acid.
As the equilibrium in the reaction vessel is shifted by the distillation of angelic acid or an ester of angelic acid in accordance with the process (isomerization distillation), the isomerization reaction can take place continuously.
It is preferable in this method to have a greater difference in boiling point between tiglic acid or an ester of tiglic acid and angelic acid or a corresponding ester of angelic acid. Besides, advantages in distillation temperature and distillation operation are critical for the choice. In these aspects methyl tiglate is most preferred.
As the boiling point of methyl tiglate is 138.degree.-139.degree. C. and that of the corresponding ester methyl angelate is 128.degree.-129.degree. C., the above-described isomerization-distillation process can be conducted under ordinary pressure. There is no question that the isomerization-distillation process can be carried out with esters of tiglic acid other than methyl tiglate or tiglic acid in the same way by adjusting the degree of reduced pressure to meet the optimal temperature for the reaction.
For the continuous processing of the isomerization reaction in the aforementioned isomerization-distillation reaction, deterioration of the organic sulfinic acid is a problem. In general, it is known that organic sulfinic acids undergo a degradation reaction by heating as shown by the general scheme below to afford a corresponding sulfonic acid and a sulfonic acid thiol ester. ##STR6##
In carrying out the above-described isomerization-distillation, the organic sulfinic acid will also be degraded continuously, and therefore it is required to supply fresh organic sulfinic acid intermittently or continuously when the isomerization-distillation is run for a long period of time. In this case, the amount of organic sulfinic acid to be supplemented will be in the range from 0.01% to 10% and preferably from 0.05% to 0.5% of the tiglic acid or the ester of tiglic acid in the reaction vessel per hour. Although the isomerization-distillation may be carried out in the presence of a solvent as mentioned above, it is done usually and preferably in the absence of solvent.
Tiglic acid or an ester of tiglic acid which is the starting material continuously decreasing in the reaction vessel may also be supplemented continuously or intermittently. It is also feasible to operate a batch system.
The angelic acid or the ester of angelic acid continuously discharged in the aforementioned isomerization-distillation reaction is usually contaminated with the starting material tiglic acid or ester of tiglic acid, purity of the former depending upon the number of plates in the rectifying column.
In order to produce angelic acid or an ester of angelic acid with a higher purity a rectifying column with a number of theoretical plates of not less than 5, preferably from 7 to 30 is employed.
The product thus obtained can further be subjected to conventional rectification to afford angelic acid or an ester of angelic acid of a higher purity.
Angelic acid and esters thereof have a carbonyl group and a conjugated carbon-carbon double bond in their structure. Compounds of this type possibly undergo position isomerization of the double bond if they are treated, for example, with an acidic compound. Unexpectedly, however, there is no position isomerization detectively observed at all in the process of the invention; only geometrical isomerization of the double bond takes place selectively with a surprisingly good reaction ratio on the basis of the catalyst.
In the course of investigations on the preparation of angelic acid and esters thereof we have successfully produced esters of angelic acid having the general formulae (3)-(15) which are unknown in literature and highly effective as a perfume component.

Compounds of the general formula (7) are a compound represented by the following formula (7-a): ##STR17## namely cyclopentyl angelate and a compound represented by the following formula (7-b): ##STR18## namely cyclohexyl angelate.
Compounds of the formula (8) are a compound represented by the following formula (8-a): ##STR19## namely 2-methylbutyl angelate and a compound represented by the following formula (8-b): ##STR20## namely 2-methylpentyl angelate and compound of the formula (9) is 2-methylpropenyl angelate.
Compounds of the formula (10) are a compound represented by the following formula (10-a): ##STR21## namely benzyl angelate and a compound represented by the following formula (10-b): ##STR22## namely .beta.-phenyl angelate.
All of these compounds have excellent aromatic characteristics. It was demonstrated that when one or more of the compounds are incorporated in a perfume composition, an effect unpredictable from each of the compounds alone was produced, and fragrance of the perfume composition was greatly improved.

As set forth above, these compounds produce better results when used as a new perfume composition by incorporating in a perfume composition.
Particularly, they produce excellent results when incorporated in a formulated perfume composition for use as cosmetic perfume. They can be used as aromatic compositions (perfuming compositions) by adding to cosmetics (such as soap, ointment, powders, tooth paste, deodorant, shampoo, eau de Cologne and lotion), detergent and the like. They can also be used as flavors by adding to foods, luxuries, bererages and the like. The amount to be incorporated may be varied depending upon the objective and the perfume composition in which they are incorporated and is preferably 0.005-50% by weight, more preferably 0.05-30% by weight of the total weight of the formulated perfume composition.
Where these novel compounds can be produced without question by isomerizing a corresponding ester of tiglic acid, it is preferred that methyl angelate is prepared by the isomerization as described below and then, and a mixture of the angelate and a corresponding alcohol, that is, (Z)-3-hexenyl alcohol, 3-methyl-2-butenol, 3-methyl-3-butenol, 3-methyl-2-pentenyl, 3-methyl-4-pentenol, n-amyl alcohol, n-hexyl alcohol, n-heptyl alcohol, n-octyl alcohol, n-nonyl alcohol, n-decyl alcohol, cyclopentyl alcohol, cyclohexyl alcohol, 2-methylbutyl alcohol, 2-methylpentyl alcohol, 2-methylpropenol, benzyl alcohol, .beta.-phenyletyl alcohol, .alpha.-methylbenzyl alcohol, geraniol, nerol, citronellol or furfuryl alcohol is heated in the presence of an ester exchange catalyst.
In general, acids are employed as the ester exchange catalyst, but metal compounds such as organic tin compounds and titanium alkoxides are also employed preferably. Although any solvent which does not adversely affect may be used, non-solvent systems are generally satisfactory. Compounds of the invention are preferred under the same conditions as those for the ester exchange in general.
In the above-described preparative process the reaction proceeds in a better yield when the methanol by-product is distilled off or removed by such means as adsorption on the molecular sieve.
The present invention will be described in more details with reference to examples, which are to be construed as not limiting the scope of the invention in any way.

After completion of the reaction, the product was analyzed by the above-cited gaschromatography at a column temperature of 100.degree. C. (the same conditions were used for the analysis of methyl tiglate and methyl angelate hereinbelow) to find that it was an heat equilibrium mixture containing 7.23% of methyl angelate and 90.48% of methyl tiglate.
EXAMPLE 2
To a spinning band rectifying column manufactured by B&R 10 mm in diameter and 800 mm in length (ca. 10 plates) was connected a flask containing 140 g. of methyl tiglate and 100 mg. of p-toluenesulfinic acid. The flask was heated on an oil bath, and distillates were collected at a reflux ratio of around 10-20 and an average distillation rate of 3.75 g. per hour. Temperature at the top of the column was initially 129.degree.-131.degree. C. and was slowly increased with deterioration of the catalyst.
Then, a solution of 1,500 mg. of p-toluenesulfinic acid in 50.2 g. of methyl tiglate was intermittently charged in 15 portions at an interval of 1 hour. Temperature at the top of the column was 130.degree.-132.degree. C. After 16 hours there was obtained 60.0 g. of distillates, which was indicated by gaschromatographic analysis analysis to contain 54.45% of methyl angelate and 42.51% of methyl tiglate.
The distillates were rectified on a spinning band rectifying column Nester Faust Type NFA-200 to obtain methyl angelate with a purity of 94.94%. Said methyl angelate was identified by proton NMR spectrum (in CDCl.sub.3 with TMS internal standard) and IR spectrum (liquid film).

Preparation of heptyl angelate
A mixture of 50.0 g. of methyl angelate, 53.4 g. of heptyl alcohol, 200 ml. of toluene and 2.5 g. of dioctyltin laurate was placed in a glass flask, which was equipped with a Soxhlet extractor filled on the top with molecular sieve 4A and a reflux coller. The above mixture was heated under continuous reflux while returning the refluxed liquid through the molecular sieve 4A to the flask. The mixture resulted from the heating for a total of 16 hours was subjected to single distillation to give 74.54 g. of a distillate boiling at 75.degree.-89.degree. C. (2 mmHg).
The distillate was further subjected to rectification to give 63.98 g. of a distillate boiling at 82.degree. C. (5 mmHg). Analysis of the compound by gas-chromatography (Capillary column: 25 m.times.0.3 mm.phi. PEG 20M) indicated a purity of 99.3% in terms of the area ratio.
Refractive index (D ray, 20.degree. C.) was 1.4420. Infrared spectrum had absorptions at 2860-3020, 1720, 1650, 1455, 1390, 1380, 1355, 1260, 1230, 1160, 1085, 1045, 850, 760 and 730 cm.sup.-1 (liquid film).
Proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum (deuterochloroform, TMS internal standard) had absorptions at .delta.=0.89 (t, 3H), 1.08-1.81 (m, 10H), 1.86-2.04 (m, 6H), 4.14 (t, 2H) and 6.02 (m, 1H) ppm.
Carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum (deuterochloroform, TMS internal standard) had absorptions at .delta.=14.07, 15.68, 20.60, 22.72, 26.26, 28.96, 29.11, 31.91, 64.24, 75.91, 77.33, 128.43, 137.06 and 168.02 ppm.

Preparation of Amyl Angelate
A mixture of 80.0 g. of methyl angelate, 65.0 g. of amyl alcohol, 200 ml. of toluene and 4.0 g. of dioctyl laurate was placed in a glass flask, which was equipped with a Soxhlet extractor filled on the top with molecular sieve 4A and a reflux cooler. The above mixture was heated under continuous reflux while returning the refluxed liquid through the molecular sieve 4A to the flask. The mixture resulted from the heating for a total of 24 hours was subjected to single distillation to give 98.3 g. of a distillate boiling at 85.degree.-100.degree. C. (30 mmHg). The distillate was further subjected to rectification to give 64.8 g. of a distillation boiling at 94.degree. C. (30 mmHg). Analysis of the compound by gaschromatography (Capillary column: 25 m.times.0.3 mm.phi. PEG 20M) indicated a purity of 99.3% in terms of the area ratio.
Refractive index (D ray, 20.degree. C.) was 1.4375. Infrared spectrum had absorptions at 2860-3020, 1720, 1650, 1455, 1390, 1380, 1350, 1260, 1230, 1160, 1085, 1045, 975, 845, 760 and 730 cm.sup.-1 (liquid film).
