Description

Instead-synthetic method of 4-alkyl-cyclohexyl formic acid
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of important liquid crystal intermediates anti--synthetic method of 4-alkyl-cyclohexyl formic acid, its structural formula is shown in (I):
R is that carbonatoms is 1~15 straight chain, branched-chain alkyl in the formula, or the substituted cyclohexyl with following structure:
Figure C0313432800032
R ' is 1~9 straight chained alkyl for carbonatoms in the formula.
Background technology
The cyclohexanes liquid crystal has higher transformation temperature and lower viscosity, has overcome that at present still widely used biphenyls liquid crystal transformation temperature is low, viscosity big, the slower shortcoming of response speed, and therefore this class liquid crystal development is very fast in recent years.Instead-4-alkyl-cyclohexyl formic acid is the synthetic requisite important intermediate of this class liquid crystal material, and also often is applied to the synthetic of fine chemicals such as medicine, agricultural chemicals, so it synthetic has significant application value.Instead-the synthetic need of 4-alkyl-cyclohexyl formic acid are through the reaction of two steps: hydrogenation and isomerization reaction.Hydrogenation reaction is to be raw material with the 4-alkylbenzoic acid, and in the presence of catalyzer, hydrogenation generates the mixture along anti--4-alkyl-cyclohexyl formic acid, trans-isomer content is very low, usually be less than 40%, must carry out isomerization reaction, make cis-isomeride change trans-isomer(ide) into.Instead-two substituting group alkyl of 4-alkyl-cyclohexyl formic acid and carboxyl all be in the equatorial position on the hexanaphthene with chair form structure, and two substituting groups are in calm and axial position respectively in the cis-isomeride, from thermodynamics, the conformation free energy of trans-isomer(ide) is less than the conformational energy of cis-isomeride, thereby the former is more stable than the latter.Under certain condition, isomerization reaction can take place in cis-isomeride, changes trans-isomer(ide) into, but prior art all can't make isomerization reaction carry out fully, thereby influences reaction yield, below is the isomerization method of prior art.(Yun Kuihong etc. write Advanced Organic Chemistry, P63) introduce in August, 1988, and cis or anti-suitable-4-alkyl-cyclohexyl formic acid are heated to 180 ℃ and carry out isomerization reaction in hydrochloric acid soln, carry out owing to be reflected in the acidic medium, easily equipment are caused corrosion.European patent EP 196222 report cis or anti-suitable-4-alkyl-cyclohexyl methyl-formiate are in the presence of sodium hydride, and isomerization reaction is carried out in heating.This method needs to have increased operation easier through polystep reactions such as over-churning, isomerization, hydrolysis.The clear 60-258141 of Japanese Patent report cis or along anti--4-alkyl-cyclohexyl formic acid is medium with the aqueous sodium hydroxide solution, carries out isomerization reaction under high temperature, condition of high voltage, this method need be used pressure-resistant equipment, has increased cost.And the most key is, uses above-mentioned three kinds of isomerization methods, and the suitable/trans isomer that obtains is than all between 25/75~15/85, needs just can obtain instead-4-alkyl-cyclohexyl formic acid through recrystallization repeatedly, and productive rate is lower than 70%.
Summary of the invention
The invention provides a kind of synthetic method of anti--4-alkyl-cyclohexyl formic acid (I) newly, the reaction yield height significantly reduces cost.
Building-up reactions formula of the present invention is as follows:
Figure C0313432800041
R is propyl group or amyl group in the formula, or has the substituted cyclohexyl of following structure:
R ' is propyl group or amyl group in the formula, with the 4-alkylbenzoic acid is raw material, its molecular structure is shown in (II), wherein R is identical with R in the compound (I), be dissolved in the aqueous solution that mineral alkali is potassium hydroxide or sodium hydroxide, in the presence of the loading type ruthenium/carbon catalyst, feed hydrogen, temperature of reaction is 50~150 ℃, reaction pressure is 1~10MPa, and reaction continued to keep 1~2 hour after no longer inhaling hydrogen, generates the mixture along anti--4-alkyl-cyclohexyl formic acid, above-mentioned reaction solution need not separate mineral alkali and product, filter, distillation dewaters and obtains solid particulate, is heated to 100~300 ℃ and carries out the solid phase isomerization reaction in nitrogen atmosphere, after reaction finishes, continue logical nitrogen and reduce to room temperature to temperature of charge, product is soluble in water, add aqueous hydrochloric acid and transfer to acidity, extraction, the extraction liquid distillation removes desolvates, and the suitable/trans isomer ratio that obtains 4-alkyl-cyclohexyl formic acid is 4/96~1/99, and recrystallization obtains product (I).
The mol ratio of mineral alkali and raw material (II) is 10: 1~2: 1.
