Abstract
An improvement in the known method for producing organic phosphoric acid esters of the formula: <IMAGE> wherein R1 is a lower alkoxy group, R2 is a lower alkoxy group or a lower alkylthio group, R3 is a substituted or unsubstituted phenyl group or a substituted or unsubstituted heterocyclic group and X is an oxygen or sulfur atom, which comprises reacting a compound of the formula: <IMAGE> wherein R1, R2 and X are as defined above and Y is a halogen atom with a compound of the formula: R3OH wherein R3 is as defined above under basic conditions in a solvent, the improvement lying in that the reaction solvent is a mixture of water and a water-immiscible solvent, the mixture forming two layers.
Description
SPECIFICATION
Method for producing organic phosphoric acid esters
This invention relates to a method of producing organic phosphoric acid ester derivatives having insecticidal, miticidal, fungicidal and other activities and useful as agricultural chemicals. More particularly, the invention relates to an improvement in the method of producing compounds of the general formula:
wherein R1 is a lower alkoxy group, R2 is a lower alkoxy group or a lower alkylthio group,
R3 is a substituted or unsubstituted phenyl group or a substituted or unsubstituted heterocyclic group and X is an oxygen or sulfur atom, which comprises reacting a compound of the general formula:
wherein Rl, R2 and X are as defined above and Y is a halogen atom, with a compound of the general formula::
R30H (III) wherein R3 is as defined above, under basic conditions in a solvent, the improvement lying in that the reaction solvent is a mixture of water and a water-immiscible solvent, the mixture forming two layers.
It is widely known that organic phosphoric acid ester derivatives are producible by reacting, in the manner of esterification, an organic phosphoric acid ester halide with a hydroxylcontaining compound such as an alcohol or a phenol (for example, British Patents No.
1306028, No. 1315888, No. 1340297 and
No. 2047250, and United States Patents No.
4163052, No. 4315008, No. 3728297 and
No. 3723456). This esterification is generally carried out in an organic solvent while the use of water is avoided since the starting organic phosphoric acid ester halide is decomposed very easily in the presence of water. Thus, for instance, United States Patent No. 431 5008 discloses a method of reacting a 4-hydroxypyrazole derivative with an O-ethyl S-n-propyl (di)thiophosphoric acid ester halide in an organic solvent inert to the reaction (e.g. acetonitrile) to give the corresponding organic phosphoric acid ester derivative. However, this and other known methods are not yet fully satisfactory because of low yield and low purity of the objective compounds and because of complicated and troublesome procedures resulting from the use of organic solvents in carrying out the reaction.
The present inventors continued their studies in the development of a method of producing the objective compounds (i) in a manner easier and simpler from the industrial standpoint and found that, in the known method for producing the compound (I) which comprises reacting the compound (II) with the compound (III) under basic conditions in a solvent, when the reaction solvent is a mixture of water and a water-immiscible solvent, the mixture forming two layers, unexpectedly, (i) the reaction proceeds in highly improved yield, i.e. almost quantitatively, (ii) the isolation of the objective compound (I) is very easy and simple, and thus (iii) the objective compound (i) is obtained in high yield and high purity. Continued investigations based on the above finding have led to completion of the present invention.
The reaction of the compounds (II) and (Ill) in accordance with the present invention proceeds almost quantitatively in a mixture of water and a water-immiscible solvent, the mixture forming two layers, contrary to the so-far prevailing common knowledge in chemistry that water is inadequate as the reaction solvent since organic phosphoric acid ester halides, namely the compounds (it), are very unstable to water. So, the reaction in accordance with the present invention can be used conveniently in a quantitative analysis of the compound (oil).

Suitable examples of the water-immiscible solvent include aromatic hydrocarbons, such as benzene, toluene and xylene, and halogenated hydrocarbons, such as methylene chloride, chloroform and carbon tetrachloride.

The reaction may be complete in about 30 minutes to about 6 hours. The completion of the reaction can be confirmed by high performance liquid chromatography or thin layer chromatography, for instance. After completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture may be adjusted to pH 12 to 13.5 with such a base as mentioned above and the aqueous layer may be separated, whereby the unreacted compound (III) and byproducts may be removed.
