摘要:
This invention relates to a process for the preparation of 2-(methylthiomethyl)-6-(trifluoromethyl) aniline, [MTA], from ortho-aminobenzotrifluoride, (OABT), employing a single solvent transformation via a sulfilimine intermediate. A sulfilimine hydrochloride salt is prepared by the oxidative addition of dimethyl sulfide to OABT in the presence of N-chlorosuccinimide. Neutralization of the sulfilimine hydrochloride salt with aqueous sodium hydroxide followed by phase separation results in an organic phase containing free sulfilimine and an aqueous phase generally containing succinimide and/or sodium succinimide. In a preferred embodiment the phase separation is performed in such a manner to leave a catalytic amount of succinimide in the organic phase. The free sulfilimine catalytically rearranges at moderate temperatures in the presence of this succinimide catalyst to form MTA. The aqueous phase separated after neutralization of the sulfilimine hydrochloride salt contains succinimide and/or sodium succinimide which may be converted by the action of chlorine to N-chlorosuccinimide which in turn may be recycled to the first step in the process.

This invention relates to a process for the preparation of ortho-aminobenzotrifluoride (OABT) from benzotrifluoride (BTF). The process provides an overall route employing non-isolation of intermediates which can be run smoothly and which results in the preparation of OABT in high yields with less contamination. This process includes a catalytic halogenation step in which BTF is converted to meta-halo BTF and other mono and di-halo isomers of BTF followed by nitration in the same reaction vessel under conditions which do not favor nitration of the di-halo isomers of BTF to produce a mixture which predominates in 5-halo-2-nitro BTF. In the final step the 5-halo-2-nitro BTF present is reduced and hydrodehalogenated with H.sub.2 in the presence of a catalyst to form OABT. Recyclable BTF is also obtained from the final reaction.

This disclosure relates to a class of alpha-chloro-N-alkoxymethyl-N-(2,6-dialkoxyphenyl)acetamides which are effective in regulating the natural growth or development of plants. As employed herein, the term "natural growth or development" designates the normal life cycle of the plant in accordance with its genetics and its environment, in the absence of artificial, external influences. More particularly, this disclosure is concerned with a method wherein turfgrasses are treated with an alpha-chloro-N-alkoxymethyl-N-(2,6-dialkoxyphenyl)acetamide which serves to retard or reduce the rate of turfgrass growth. Such a treatment may also serve to retard or reduce the formation of seedheads and seedhead stalk elongation.

The disclosure herein relates to herbicidal compositions containing 2'-carboalkoxy-6'-alkyl-2-haloacetanilides and method of use to selectively control undesired vegetation in agricultural crops, e.g., monocotyledons such as wheat, sorghum and rice and dicotyledons such as sugarbeets and soybeans.
摘要:
This invention relates, in one of its aspects, to a process for the preparation of ortho-methyl anilines from ortho-amino benzyl sulfoxides. An ortho-amino benzyl sulfoxide is converted to an ortho-amino benzyl halide by reaction with a nonoxidizing acid halide and is converted to a stable quaternary salt by reaction with a tertiary amine in the presence of an alcohol. The quaternary salt may be cleaved by hydrogenation to form ortho-methyl anilines. Other aspects of the invention relate to novel intermediate quaternary salts and to a process for forming those quartenary salts.
