摘要:
3-Hydroxy-.alpha.-cyclocitral derivatives of the general formula I ##STR1## where R.sup.1 is ##STR2## wherein R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 can be identical or different and are each straight-chain or branched alkyl of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, or R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 together form an ethylene or propylene group which can be substituted by methyl or ethyl, processes for their preparation and their use for the preparation of safranal and 3-hydroxy-.beta.-cyclocitral, as well as optically active - cyclocitral derivatives of the general formulae A and B ##STR3## where R.sup.1 is ##STR4## if X is hydrogen and Y is OH, but is otherwise ##STR5## where R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 have the above meanings, and X and Y together are oxygen, or X is hydrogen if Y is OH, and a process for the preparation of optically active 3-oxo-.alpha.-cyclocitral acetals, wherein a mixture of the corresponding racemic 3-oxo-.alpha.-cyclocitral acetals is separated into the optically active compounds by chromatography over a suitable chiral adsorbent. The novel compounds open up a novel advantageous route to optically active 3-hydroxy-.beta.-cyclocitrals, which are desirable because they are important intermediates for carotinoids identical to the natural products.
摘要:
New acetals, containing a 6-membered ring, of 2-methyl-2,4-dialkoxy-3-buten-1-al, are obtained by reacting the corresponding 2-methyl-2-alkoxy-3-butyn-1-al-acetals with a mixture of the appropriate alcohol and an alkali metal alcoholate of the said alcohol at from 100.degree. to 200.degree. C. The acetals are intermediates for the preparation of carotinoid-based physiologically safe food dyes.
摘要:
An improved process for preparing cyclic acetals of 3-formyl-2-butenyltriphenylphosphonium chloride by acetalization of 3-formyl-2-butenyl acetate with an aliphatic 1,3-diol, conversion of the resulting 4-acetoxy acetal into the corresponding 4-hydroxy acetal, Vilsmeier chlorination to give the corresponding 4-chloro acetal and subsequent reaction with triphenylphosphine entails carrying out the first 3 steps in an aliphatic or cycloaliphatic hydrocarbon or mixture of hydrocarbons with 6-8 carbons and the reaction with triphenylphosphine in an alkanol with 1-3 carbons and/or in aliphatic or cycloaliphatic hydrocarbon with 6-8 carbons or a corresponding mixture of hydrocarbons. The process is particularly advantageous when conversion of the 4-acetoxy acetal into the 4-hydroxy acetal is carried out with an aqueous alkali metal hydroxide solution in the presence of phase-transfer catalysts, and the first three, or all four, reaction stages are carried out in the same C.sub.6 -C.sub.8 -hydrocarbon.

摘要:
A process for the preparation of 6-membered cyclic acetals of trans-4-chloro-3-methyl-but-2-en-1-al by reacting the corresponding acetals of 3-methyl-but-2-en-1-al (prenal), in a halohydrocarbon, with sulfuryl chloride and for their subsequent oxidation to trans-3-methyl-but-2-ene-1,4-dial-1-monoacetals (3-methyl-fumarodialdehyde-1-monoacetals). The trans-3-methyl-but-2-ene-1,4-dial-1-monoacetals are of great importance in terpene syntheses, since they make it possible to carry out successive Wittig reactions giving a very large number of compounds of biological and pharmacological importance.
摘要:
3-Chloro-3-methyl-butane-1,4-dial-bis-acetals and 3-methyl-but-2-ene-1,4-dial-bis-acetals are obtained by reacting a six-membered cyclic acetal of 3-methyl-but-3-en-1-al with an alkyl nitrite in the presence of methanol and hydrogen chloride and, if desired, eliminating HCl in the conventional manner.The butanedial-bis-acetals and butenedial-bis-acetals are valuable intermediates through which the trans-3-methyl-but-2-ene-1,4-dial-1-acetals, which are sought-after products for terpene syntheses, can be obtained in an industrially particularly advantageous manner.

摘要:
A process for introducing an allyl-positioned carbonyl group into a 2,6,6-trimethylcyclohexene ring which carries a polyenyl radical in the 1-position, by oxidizing the ring with a halogen(V)-oxyacid or a salt of such an acid, and the new oxo compounds obtainable by the said process, which may be used as dyes for foodstuffs or cosmetics. The oxidation is carried out in the presence of a catalyst and of an inert diluent or solvent, in an acid medium. Suitable catalysts are bromine and iodine and the oxides of elements of groups Va, VIa, VIIa and VIII of the periodic table.
