2-Chlorocinnamic acid Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

A mixture of 18.4 g (0.19 mol) of potassium acetate in 70.3 g (0.5 mol) 2-chlorobenzaldehyde is heated to 145°C. Next 76.5 g (0.75 mol) of acetic anhydride is added in 1 hour. After dosing of 0.50 mol of acetic anhydride the mixture became clear. The mixture is stirred at 145°C during 18 hours. The hot reaction mixture is poured into a mixture of 670 g of 6.4 w/w percent aqueous NaOH (1.1 mol, 2.1 eq based on 2-chlorobenzaldehyde) and 200 mL toluene at 80°C. The final pH was 7.4. After separation of the organic phase, the water layer is again extracted with 100 mL of toluene at 80°C. The combined water phases are acidified with 380 g of 25 w/w percent HStep (i) Preparation of 3-(2-chloro-phenyl)-acrylic acid (compound (3)); A mixture of 18.4 g (0.19 mol) of potassium acetate in 70.3 g (0.5 mol) 2-chlorobenzaldehyde is heated to 145°C. Next 76.5 g (0.75 mol) of acetic anhydride is added in 1 hour. After dosing of 0.50 mol of acetic anhydride the mixture became clear. The mixture is stirred at 145General procedure: Acrylic acids 3a-f were prepared according to Chiriac et al.10 A 500 mL three necked round bottom flask equipped with a reflux condenser carrying calcium chloride guard tube, kept in ice-bath, was charged with acetic acid (0.7 mol). Under stirring, sodium borohydride (0.133 mol) was added slowly in small portions into the flask. During this the temperature was maintained below 10°C. The mixture was stirred for half hour at RT and then for one hour at 90-100°C in an oil bath. To this solution, aldehyde (0.1 mol) was added and then N-methyl pyrrolidone (9.91 g) was added as solvent. This solution was refluxed at 185-90°C for 10 hr in an oil bath. After cooling to RT, the above reaction mixture was treated with 50 mL of water and then with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution with vigorous shaking. There was an alkaline reaction and after completion of the reaction it was filtered. To remove the unreactive aldehyde, the filtrate was distilled under vacuum, until the distillate was no longer cloudy. The solution was treated with hydrochloric acid solution (2.7 N) till there was no further reaction. The precipitates of acid were obtained. Absence of spot of aldehyde on thin layer chromatographic plates revealed the homogeneity of acid.
