The invention relates to a process for the preparation of onium alkylsulfates by reaction of an onium halide with a symmetrically substituted dialkyl sulfate, in which the alkyl group can have 1 to 14 C atoms, with an asymmetrically substituted dialkyl sulfate, in which one alkyl group can have 4 to 20 C atoms and the second alkyl group denotes methyl or ethyl, with an alkyl trialkylsilyl sulfate, with an alkyl acyl sulfate or with an alkyl sulfonyl sulfate, where the reaction with a dialkyl sulfate is carried out at room temperature.
A large number of onium salts, in particular alkyl sulfates, are ionic liquids. Owing to their properties, ionic liquids represent an effective alternative to traditional volatile organic solvents for organic synthesis in modern research. The use of ionic liquids as novel reaction medium could furthermore be a practical solution both for solvent emission and also for problems in the reprocessing of catalysts.
Ionic liquids or liquid salts are ionic species which consist of an organic cation and a generally inorganic anion. They do not contain any neutral molecules and usually have melting points below 373 K. However, the melting point may also be higher without restricting the usability of the salts in all areas of application. Examples of organic cations are, inter alia, tetraalkylammonium, tetraalkylphosphonium, N-alkylpyridinium, 1,3-dialkylimidazolium or trialkylsulfonium. Amongst a multiplicity of suitable anions, mention may be made, for example, of BF4−, PF6−, SbF6−, NO3−, CF3SO3−, (CF3SO2)2N−, arylSO3−, CF3CO2−, CH3CO2− or Al2Cl7−.
A general method for the preparation of onium alkylsulfates is alkylation of the organic base, i.e., for example, the amine, phosphine, guanidine or heterocyclic base, using dialkyl sulfates, also disclosed by the publication by John D. Holbrey et al, Green Chemistry (2002), 4 (5), 407-413. However, a disadvantage of this method is that one substituent of the onium alkylsulfate formed always corresponds to the corresponding alkyl group of the dialkyl sulfate. For the preparation of onium alkylsulfates whose alkyl group in the anion is different from the substituents of the cation, referred to below as asymmetrically substituted onium alkylsulfates, it would be necessary to employ asymmetrically substituted dialkyl sulfates, for example ethyl methyl sulfate, which result in mixed-alkylated onium alkylsulfates. On the one hand the organic base would be ethylated giving a methyl sulfate, on the other hand the organic base would be methylated giving an ethyl sulfate.
Asymmetric onium alkylsulfates, as defined above, for example 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium octylsulfate, can be synthesised by the method of P. Wasserscheid et al, Green Chemistry (2002), 4 (4), 400-404, also by reaction of the onium halide, for example 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride, with a corresponding alkali metal sulfate, for example sodium octylsulfate, but the alkali metal halide formed, for example sodium chloride, has to be removed by an additional purification method. Contamination by halide ions, for example chloride ions, of greater than 1000 ppm (0.1%), reduces the usability of the ionic liquid, in particular in the application for electrochemical processes. The technology is therefore of crucial importance in processes for the preparation of onium salts, in particular ionic liquids, in order that they can be synthesised with a low level of impurities by the reaction per se or by the reaction procedure, and thus further expensive additional process steps during the synthesis are superfluous.
The object of the present invention was accordingly to provide an alternative process for the preparation of onium alkylsulfates having a low halide content which results in alkyl sulfates, preferably asymmetrically substituted onium alkylsulfates, of high purity in good yield and is also suitable for large-scale industrial production.
A process of this type is of course then also suitable for the preparation of symmetrically substituted onium alkylsulfates. The method according to the invention can also be used for the purification of halide-containing onium alkylsulfates.
The object is achieved by the process according to the invention since the symmetrically substituted dialkyl sulfate, in which the alkyl groups can have 1 to 14 C atoms, the asymmetrically substituted dialkyl sulfate, in which one alkyl group can have 4 to 20 C atoms and the second alkyl group denotes methyl or ethyl, the alkyl trialkylsilyl sulfate, the alkyl acyl sulfate or alkyl sulfonyl sulfate alkylates the anion of the onium halide employed and not the organic cation. The alkyl, acyl, trialkylsilyl or sulfonyl halides formed as by-product are generally gases or readily volatile compounds which can be removed from the reaction mixture without major process-engineering measures.
The invention therefore relates to a process for the preparation of onium alkylsulfates, in particular asymmetrically substituted onium alkylsulfates, by reaction of an onium halide with a symmetrically substituted dialkyl sulfate, in which the alkyl group can have 1 to 14 C atoms, with an asymmetrically substituted dialkyl sulfate, in which one alkyl group can have 4 to 20 C atoms and the second alkyl group denotes methyl or ethyl, with an alkyl trialkylsilyl sulfate, with an alkyl acyl sulfate or with an alkyl sulfonyl sulfate, where the reaction with a dialkyl sulfate is carried out at room temperature.
On use of a C4-C20-alkyl methyl sulfate or C4-C20-alkyl ethyl sulfate, the formation of mixtures is avoided since the methyl group or ethyl group is more reactive and will methylate or ethylate the halide, and the alkyl sulfate having 4 to 20 C atoms mostly forms the anion of the onium alkylsulfate.
It is of course possible to use both symmetrically substituted dialkyl sulfates having 1 to 20 C atoms or to use asymmetrically substituted dialkyl sulfates having 1 to 20 C atoms or even more highly alkylated starting materials in the process according to the invention. The advantage is always that the onium alkylsulfates formed have been prepared with a reduced halide content.
U.S. Pat. No. 2,585,979 discloses the preparation of quaternary sulfates of pyrimidylaminoquinoline derivatives
by reaction of the corresponding pyrimidylaminoquinoline halide with dimethyl or diethyl sulfate. In contrast to the process according to the invention, however, the reaction is carried out at temperatures of 90° to 150° C. in the presence of a solvent, for example nitrobenzene. Surprisingly, however, the reaction according to the invention succeeds at room temperature, i.e. at temperatures between 10° and 30° C., without the use of a solvent, is approximately quantitative yield.
The same technical teaching of U.S. Pat. No. 2,585,979 is also provided in Vompe et al, J. Org. Chem. USSR (Engl. transl), 17, 1981, 1551-1554, where it is disclosed that the reaction of 2-methyl-3-ethylnaphtho[2,1-d]thiazolium iodide with dimethyl sulfate at 80°-130° C. gives a mixture of methyl sulfate and the bisulfate (hydrogensulfate), whereas at temperatures of 130° C. the bisulfate HSO4− is obtained. Here too, high temperatures are required.
On use of, in particular, symmetrically substituted dialkyl sulfates as reagent, the process according to the invention should therefore be regarded as a selection invention from the processes of the prior art. There is no indication of the use of the reagents alkyl trialkylsilyl sulfate, alkyl acyl sulfate or alkyl sulfonyl sulfate.
Suitable onium halides are ammonium halides, phosphonium halides, thiouronium halides, guanidinium halides or halides with a heterocyclic cation, where the halides can be selected from the group chlorides or bromides. Preference is given in the process according to the invention to the use of phosphonium, thiouronium or guanidinium halides or halides with a heterocyclic cation. Besides the chlorides and bromides, the thiouronium iodides are particularly suitable.
The onium halides are generally commercially available or can be prepared by synthetic methods as known from the literature, for example in the standard works, such as Houben-Weyl, Methoden der organischen Chemie [Methods of Organic Chemistry], Georg-Thieme-Verlag, Stuttgart or Richard C.

A general scheme summarises the process according to the invention:
The substituents R, R1 to R7 and HetN+ of the compounds of the formulae (1) to (8) correspond to the meanings as described above.
The reaction with dialkyl sulfates is carried out in accordance with the invention at room temperature, i.e. generally at temperatures between 10° and 30° C. The reaction with alkyl trialkylsilyl sulfates, alkyl acyl sulfates or alkyl sulfonyl sulfates can be carried out at temperatures between 0° and 200° C., preferably at 10° to 100°, particularly preferably at 10° to 50° C., very particularly preferably at room temperature, where the temperatures from 50° C. corresponds to the temperature of the heating source, for example the oil bath. No solvent is required. However, it is also possible to employ solvents, for example dimethoxyethane, acetonitrile, acetone, tetrahydrofuran, dimethylformamide, dimethyl sulfoxide, dioxane, propionitrile or mixtures with one another.
The reaction is carried out with an excess or equimolar amount of dialkyl sulfate, alkyl trialkylsilyl sulfate, alkyl acyl sulfate or alkyl sulfonyl sulfate.
The method described is also suitable for the purification of the onium salts. This means that a corresponding ester according to the invention or a silyl ester of the acid of the anion, for example with dimethyl sulfate, is added to the ionic liquid contaminated by halide ions, for example 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium methylsulfate contaminated with 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride. The contamination reacts away, and the halide-reduced ionic liquid is obtained.
The invention likewise relates to a one-pot process for the preparation of onium alkylsulfates, in particular alkylsulfates in which the alkyl group has 4 to 20 C atoms, particularly preferably 4 to 14 C atoms, characterised in that an onium halide is reacted with a symmetrically substituted dialkyl sulfate, in which the alkyl group can have 1 to 3 C atoms, and with an alcohol having 4 to 20 C atoms.
The by-products alkyl halide having 1 to 3 C atoms and the alcohol having 1 to 3 C atoms can easily be removed.
The reaction is carried out at temperatures between 0° and 200° C., preferably at 10° to 100°, particularly preferably at 10° to 60° C., and with use of vacuum, where the temperatures from 60° C. corresponds to the temperature of the heating source, for example the oil bath.
The one-pot reaction is particularly preferably carried out with the symmetrical dimethyl sulfate and the alcohols hexanol, heptanol or octanol, very particularly preferably octanol.
The invention also relates to the compounds trialkylsilyl octyl sulfate, in which the alkyl group of the trialkylsilyl group can have 1 to 4 C atoms. Preferred trialkylsilyl octyl sulfates are compounds whose alkyl group in the trialkylsilyl group is identical. Particular preference is given to trimethylsilyl octyl sulfate or triethylsilyl octyl sulfate, very particularly preferably trimethylsilyl octyl sulfate.
These compounds are highly suitable for use in the process according to the invention, i.e. for the introduction of octyl sulfate anions into ionic liquids.
Even without further comments, it is assumed that a person skilled in the art will be able to utilise the above description in the broadest scope. The preferred embodiments and examples should therefore merely be regarded as descriptive disclosure which is absolutely not limiting in any way.
It goes without saying for the person skilled in the art that substituents in the compounds mentioned above and below, such as, for example, H, N, O, Cl or F, can be replaced by the corresponding isotopes.
