FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[001] The present invention relates to a process for the supply of oxiranes that comprises the reaction of a respective ketone with dimethyl sulfate (CH3)2SO4 and dimethyl sulfide (CH3)2S in aqueous solution in the presence of potassium hydroxide (KOH), in which dimethyl sulphide and dimethyl sulphate are used in a molar ratio of 1:1 to 2:1 and in which, in addition to the reagents used, a maximum of 10% by weight of organic solvent in relation to the amount of compound III are added. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a process for converting the resulting oxiranes to triazole compounds by reacting the substituted oxiranes with 1H-1,2,4-triazole under basic conditions. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[002] The substituted oxiranes provided through the process, according to the present invention, are valuable intermediate compounds for the synthesis of triazole compounds that have pesticidal activity, in particular, the fungicidal activity. Publication WO 2013/007767 (PCT / EP 2012/063626) refers to fungicide substituted 2-[2-haloalkyl-4-phenoxyphenyl]-1-[1,2,4]triazol-1-yl-ethanol compounds , which can be synthesized via a respective intermediate oxirane compound. A common process for the synthesis of oxiranes from carbonyl compounds such as aldehydes and ketones is the reaction with trimethylsulfonium iodide in the presence of a base (JACS 1965, 87, page 1353 ff). This reagent is very expensive and not suitable for industrial scales.
[003] Synthetic Communications 15, 1985, page 749 ff., in general, describes the reaction of trimethylsulfonium methyl sulfate with the aldehydes and ketones using a 50% NaOH solution. However, not with every ketone or aldehyde, satisfactory yields can be achieved, in particular, the aldehydes which are more reactive are reacted. According to this document, NaOH is used as the base for the reaction and high amounts of water are used since the base is added as a 50% aqueous solution. Furthermore, a high excess of base and preferably methylene chloride are used in the process which is not suitable for an industrial process also due to environmental issues. A.A. Afonkin et al., in Russian Journal of Organic Chemistry, volume 44, no. 1776 to 1779, refers to the synthesis of some electron-rich aryl (heteroaryl) oxiranes under phase transfer and homogeneous conditions using trimethylsulfonium sulfate as a reagent. In this reference, the reaction of aldehydes which, in general, are more reactive than ketones is described. NaOH is used as a 50% aqueous solution.
[004] Patent DE 3,315,681 refers to a process for the preparation of certain oxiranes from ketones using trimethylsulfonium methylsulfate in the presence of tert-butanol as an organic solvent and a base such as Kalium tert-butylate .
[005] Patent DE 3,733,755 refers to a process for the preparation of 2-(4-chlorophenyl-ethyl)-2-tert-butyl-oxirane from the respective ketone using trimethylsulfonium methylsulfate in the presence of hydroxide of potassium, dimethyl sulfide and water. According to this document, dimethyl sulfide is used in excess as an organic solvent. The disadvantage of using large amounts of organic solvents such as dimethyl sulfide is that after completion of the reaction such solvents need to be removed from the reaction mixture. In addition, larger reaction and processing equipment is needed.
[006] The publication WO 2014/108286 (PCT / EP 2013/077083) refers to an improved process for the preparation of oxiranes from ketones using trimethylsulfonium methylsulfate.
[007] Methods known from the literature are sometimes not suitable for the efficient synthesis of substituted oxiranes since the yield is not sufficient and/or the reaction conditions and parameters such as the use of solvents and/or the ratio of reagents and ingredients with each other are not suitable to a high level in industrially relevant quantities. Inter alia, since some oxiranes are valuable intermediates for the synthesis of triazole compounds with promising fungicidal activity, there is a continuing need for improved processes that easily make such intermediates and compounds available. DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[008] An object of the present invention was to provide an improved process for the synthesis of oxiranes which are valuable intermediates for the preparation of fungicidal active triazole compounds starting from the respective compounds containing the oxo groups. Furthermore, the object underlying the present invention was to optimize the synthesis of active triazole compounds using said oxiranes.
[009] Surprisingly a highly efficient synthesis for the conversion of compounds containing the specific oxo groups to oxiranes that are useful as intermediates in the synthesis of certain pesticidal triazole compounds has been discovered at the time.
[010] Accordingly, one aspect of the present invention is a process for preparing the compounds of Formula II
- wherein - R1 is C1-C6 alkyl or C3-C8 cycloalkyl; and - R4 is F or Cl - which comprises the following step: (i) of the reaction of an oxo compound of Formula III
- with dimethyl sulfide (CH3)2S and dimethyl sulfate (CH3)2SO4, forming reagent IV, trimethylsulfonium methylsulfate [(CH3)3S+ CH3SO4-], in aqueous solution in the presence of potassium hydroxide (KOH), in that dimethyl sulphide and dimethyl sulphate are used in a molar ratio of 1:1 to 2:1 and that at most 10% by weight of organic solvent relative to the amount of compound III are added.
[011] Using the process of the present invention, fewer amounts of solvents are used than in conventional processes, which leads to a smaller volume of reaction mixtures and higher space-time yields. Furthermore, the reaction of the present invention enables a faster conversion of the reactants to the desired products, which is favorable, in particular, in relation to industrial applicability.
[012] In process step (i), according to the present invention, an oxo compound of Formula III reacts with dimethyl sulfide (CH3)2S and dimethyl sulfate (CH3)2SO4, forming reagent IV, methylsulfate of trimethylsulfonium [(CH3)3S+ CH3SO4-], in aqueous solution in the presence of potassium hydroxide (KOH), in which dimethyl sulfide and dimethyl sulfate are used in a molar ratio of 1:1 to 2:1 and in which at most 10% by weight of organic solvent relative to the amount of compound III are added in addition to the reagents used.
[013] In the oxo compound III, R1 is C1-C6 alkyl or C3-C8 cycloalkyl; and R4 is F or Cl. According to one embodiment, R1 is C1-C6 alkyl, more specifically, C1-C4 alkyl, in particular selected from CH3, C2H5, n-C3H7, CH(CH3)2, n-butyl, isobutyl and tert-butyl, more especially selected from CH3, C2H5, CH(CH3)2 and C(CH3)3. According to another embodiment, R1 is C3-C8 cycloalkyl, in particular C3-C6 cycloalkyl, such as C3H5 (cyclopropyl), C4H7 (cyclobutyl), cyclopentyl or cyclohexyl. Another embodiment relates to compounds, wherein R1 is C3H5 (cyclopropyl) or C4H7 (cyclobutyl). R4 is F or Cl, in particular Cl. In particular, R1 is selected from CH3, CH(CH3)2 and cyclopropyl and R4 is Cl. The same applies for variables R1 and R4 in compound II.
[014] The Formula IV reagent is formed from dimethyl sulfide and dimethyl sulfate. In particular, reagent IV is prepared in situ. Dimethyl sulphide or dimethyl sulphate is charged first and the other reagent then added. It may preferably be in accordance with the present invention to add the dimethyl sulphide to a reaction mixture containing the dimethyl sulphate.
[015] Dimethyl sulphide and dimethyl sulphate are preferably used in amounts such that reagent IV is present in the reaction mixture in an amount from 1.1 to 2.5, in particular from 1.2 to 2, more specifically, from 1.3 to 1.6 equivalents of IV per 1 equivalent (mol) of compound III.
[016] According to the process of the present invention, the dimethyl sulfide is used in such amounts that the reagent IV is sufficiently formed during the reaction. In the prior art, it has been reported that the addition of a solvent such as tert-butanol or toluene or the use of dimethyl sulfide in large excess is necessary. Dimethyl sulfide, in these cases, acts as an organic solvent. According to the present invention, the molar ratio of dimethyl sulfide to dimethyl sulfate for the formation of reagent IV is from 1:1 to 2:1. Preferably, the molar ratio between dimethyl sulphide and dimethyl sulphate is from 1:1 to 1.5:1, more preferably from 1:1 to 1.4:1. It can also be preferably used from 1 to 1.3, in particular from 1 to 1.25, more specifically from 1 to 1.1 of dimethyl sulphide relative to one equivalent of dimethyl sulphate.
[017] According to the process of the present invention, in addition to the reagents used, the reaction step (i) surprisingly can be performed with very good results, although at most 10% by weight of organic solvents are added in relation to the amount of compound III [amount of solvent: (amount of solvent + amount of compound III)]. In particular, the reaction can be carried out using at most 8% by weight, more specifically at most 5% by weight, even more specifically at most 3% by weight, of organic solvents relative to the amount of compound III. More specifically, in the reaction mixture, a maximum of 2% by weight, more specifically, a maximum of 1% by weight of organic solvents with respect to the amount of compound III are added.
[018] In a specific embodiment, in step (i) of the process of the present invention, essentially, no organic solvent is added. In particular, in step (i) of the process of the present invention, no organic solvent is added other than the reagents used.
[019] Therefore, the process for the preparation of oxiranes from keto compounds is simplified and an industrial application becomes more efficient.
[020] Organic solvents are liquid organic compounds that dilute the reactants without taking part in the reaction or catalyzing the reaction.

In another special embodiment, advantages can be obtained if the amounts of water used in step (i) are from 0.5 to 0.95 eq or greater than 1.5 eq of water at 4 eq per mole of compound III.

[025] KOH can be added in one or more portions, eg 2 to 8 portions, to the reaction mixture. KOH can also be added on a continuous basis. Preferably, KOH is added after compound III is loaded into the reaction vessel. However, the order can also be changed and compound III is added to the reaction mixture containing the KOH.

The temperature during this heating is preferably maintained between 30°C and 70°C, more specifically between 40°C and 60°C, even more specifically between 50°C and 60°C. The organic phase, by For example, it can be separated and dissolved in a suitable solvent such as dimethyl formamide (DMF), N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP), dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) or dimethyl acetamide (DMAC). Dimethyl sulfide, if still present, is preferably removed by distillation before or after addition of solvent. The reaction mixture can then be used directly for the next step (see below) or, if appropriate, further treated and/or purified, for example, by recrystallization and/or chromatography.
[029] By means of the process of the present invention, the oxiranes of Formula II can be prepared in high yields. Preferably, yields are at least 60%, more preferably at least 70%, even more preferably at least 75%, even more preferably at least 80%.
[030] A side product that can occur if R1 is isopropyl is compound II'' next

[031] The oxirane II obtained according to the process of the present invention (step (i)) can still be converted into a triazole of Formula I. Consequently, according to another embodiment of the present invention, the process further comprises the following step: (ii) the reaction of the oxirane of Formula II resulting from step (i) with 1H-1,2,4-triazole and a base, resulting in compounds of Formula I,

Mainly for economic reasons, it may be preferable to use at least 1.1 eq, specifically 1.15 eq, to 1.5 eq of triazole relative to oxirane II.
[042] The solvent used in step (ii) is preferably selected from dimethyl formamide, dimethyl acetamide, N-methylpyrrolidone and dimethyl sulfoxide. Most preferred is dimethyl formamide.
[043] In general, another unwanted by-product in the synthesis of compounds I that can occur in unwanted amounts is the symmetric triazole I" which is formed together with the desired triazole of Formula I, consequently leading to lower yields of the desired product of Formula I.
- m where R1 and R4 are defined and preferably defined above.
[044] It was found that if the reaction product I resulting from step (ii) is crystallized as described, according to the present invention, the product I can be obtained in high yields and purity.
[045] Consequently, according to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the compounds I resulting from step (ii) are crystallized from a suitable solvent. This step is called the final processing step (ii-1). Suitable solvents, for example, are selected from toluene, ortho-xylene, an aliphatic alcohol, acetonitrile, carbonic acid ester and cyclohexane, or any mixtures thereof, in particular from toluene, aliphatic alcohol and acid ester carbon dioxide and any of its mixtures.
[046] According to the present invention, it is possible to reduce the amount of I'' in favor of the desired product I. Consequently, according to the process of the present invention, it is possible to greatly improve the yield of triazole I compared to the common prior art processes.
[047] In particular, aliphatic alcohol is selected from methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, isopropanol, n-butanol, isobutanol and any of their mixtures. In particular, aliphatic alcohol is selected from methanol and ethanol and any of their mixtures.
[048] Examples of suitable carbonic acid esters are n-butyl acetate or ethyl acetate and any mixtures thereof.
[049] In general, for the crystallization step, the reaction solvent, in particular the dimethylformide, as described above, is first largely evaporated, preferably under reduced pressure.

[050] Then, water and its suitable solvent such as an ether are added, for example, diethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, methyl-tert-butyl ether (MTBE), methylene chloride and/or toluene , in particular, toluene. Ethyl acetate and/or n-butyl acetate may also be suitable as a solvent. Product I is then preferably obtained by crystallization directly from the concentrate, for example the toluene reaction mixture. Also preferably and suitable in accordance with the present invention is the change of solvent, for example to methanol or ethanol (see above) for the crystallization of the products.
[051] According to one embodiment, seed crystals are added to the crystallization step.
[052] Using the crystallization step of the present invention, according to the process of the present invention, especially when performing process steps (ii), the content of unwanted symmetric triazole I'' can be reduced to equal to or less to 10%, more preferably equal to or less than 8%, even more preferably equal to or less than 5%, even more preferably equal to or less than 2%.

[054] It is especially surprising that the crystallization of a reaction product comprising compound I as described and preferably described herein from carbonic acid esters, such as in particular, n-butyl acetate or ethyl acetate or any of its mixtures, results in a very high purity of the product, i.e. high contents of the desired product I are obtained.
[055] Consequently, according to a further aspect, the present invention relates to a process for the purification of a reaction product comprising a compound of Formula I, comprising step (iia) of crystallization of said reaction product from one or more carbonic acid ester(s)
- wherein R1 is C1-C6 alkyl or C3-C8 cycloalkyl; and R4 is F or Cl.
[056] It has been found that if the reaction product comprising compound I is crystallized in accordance with the present invention, product I can be obtained in high yields and purity.
[057] Examples of suitable carbonic acid esters are n-butyl acetate or ethyl acetate and any mixtures thereof.
[058] According to one embodiment, seed crystals are added to the crystallization step.
[059] Using the crystallization step of the present invention, the content of unwanted symmetric triazole I'' can be reduced to equal to or less than 10%, more preferably equal to or less than 8%, even more preferably equal to or less than 5%, even more preferably equal to or less than 2%.
[060] Preferably, the ratio of isolated compound I to I" is at least 20:1, more preferably at least 30:1, most preferably 50:1, more specifically 70:1 . In particular, the ratio of compound I to I” is at least 30:1.
[061] Following the process of the present invention comprising step (i), the common methods of additional reaction of oxiranes II in final products I can also be performed.
[062] For example, the epoxide ring of compounds II can be cleaved by reaction with alcohols R2OH, preferably under acidic conditions to result in compounds V:

[063] Then, the resulting compounds V are reacted with halogenating agents or sulphonating agents such as PBr3, PCl3 mesyl chloride, tosyl chloride or thionyl chloride, to obtain compounds VI where LG' is a nucleophilically substitutable leaving group such as halogen, alkylsulfonyl, alkylsulfonyloxy and arylsulfonyloxy, preferably chlorine, bromine or iodine, especially preferably bromine or alkylsulfonyl. Then, compounds VI are reacted with 1H-1,2,4-triazole to obtain compounds I as they are known in the state of the art and/or described above:

[064] To obtain the compounds of Formula I, in which the alcohol group is derivatized (resulting in "OR2", compounds I-1, see below), the following step can subsequently be performed: (iii) derivatize the compound of Formula I of step (ii) under basic conditions with R2-LG, wherein LG is a nucleophilically substitutable leaving group;

Preferably, a base is used in step (iii) such as, for example, NaH.
[065] Suitable solvents, for example, are ethers, especially cyclic ethers.

Other solvents which may be suitable, for example, are diisopropyl ether, di-n-butyl ether and/or diglyme. Often, the use of THF or 2-methyl-THF is especially suitable. Furthermore, it may also be suitable to use combinations of two or more different solvents, such as, for example, any combination of the solvents listed above or any of the ethers listed with the aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as n-hexane, heptane or hydrocarbons. aromatics such as toluene or xylenes.
[066] The person skilled in the art is familiar with the reaction in step (iii) and can vary the reaction conditions in a manner analogous to known syntheses.
[067] Compounds III that contain the initial oxo groups for the processes of the present invention can be synthesized as described in the literature and patent applications mentioned above. In general, the person skilled in the art can obtain by various routes in a manner analogous to known prior art processes (see J. Agric. Food Chem. (2009) 57, 4,854-4,860; EP patents 0.275.955 A1; DE 4.003.180 A1; EP 0.113.640 A2, EP 0.126.430 A2). The synthesis routes for obtaining the precursors are given below. Also see PCT / EP 2014/076,839 for specific process conditions.
[068] In a first process, for example, phenols A are reacted, in a first step, with derivatives B, where X1 represents the I or Br, in particular, the Br, preferably in the presence of a base to result in compounds C.

[069] Then, the resulting compounds C, in particular X1 is the Br, then are transformed into Grignard reagents by reacting with transmetallation reagents such as isopropylmagnesium halides and further reacted with acetyl chloride preferably under anhydrous conditions and preferably in the presence of a catalyst such as CuCl, CuCl2, AlCl3, LiCl and mixtures thereof, to obtain the acetophenones D.

[071] Then, ketones F are reacted with phenols A, preferably, in the presence of a base to obtain compounds III, wherein R1 is as defined and preferably defined, respectively, in the present.
[072] Compounds III can also be obtained by analogy with the first process described for compounds D (preferably conditions for the process step, see above). This is illustrated in the following:

[073] Ketones III specifically can be obtained by the following steps: (a) reacting a compound of Formula (E)

The structure was solved with direct methods, refined and expanded through Fourier techniques with the SHELX software package (GM Sheldrick, SHELX-97, University of Gottingen, 1997). Absorption correction was performed with the SADABS software.
[0197] The DSC was performed on a Mettler Toledo DSC 823e module. The sample was placed in closed but vented aluminum lids. The sample size was 3 mg. The thermal behavior was analyzed in the range of 30 to 200° C using a heating rate of 10° C/min and a nitrogen current of 150 mL min. Melting point values and polymorphic transitions were confirmed by a Mettler Hot Stage in combination with a light microscope. EXAMPLES

[0213] The molten 1-[4-(4-chlorophenoxy)-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]ethanone (0.13 mol) was added as a melt. 31 g of KOH pellets (85% by weight, 0.47 mol) were slowly metered in from 20°C. Due to the exothermic reaction, the temperature rose to 35°C. Then, stirring was continued for 2 h 37°C. A sample of the reaction mixture showed complete ketone conversion (HPLC).
[0214] 205 g of water at 37°C were added and the mixture was stirred for 10 minutes. The lower aqueous phase was separated at 30°C. The organic product phase was concentrated by distillation to remove dimethyl sulfide. The residue was dissolved in 50 g of DMF and the product amount of 2-[4-(4-chlorophenoxy)-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-2-methyl-oxirane was determined by quantitative HPLC chromatography in DMF solution with 98.4% relative to the ketone starting material (0.128 mol). EXAMPLE M1 - Preparation 2-[4-(4-chlorophenoxy)-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-1-(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)propan-2-ol
[0215] 109 g (51.3 wt% in DMF, 0.1701 mol) of 2-[4-(4-chlorophenoxy)-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-2-methyl-oxirane was diluted with 105, 6 g of DMF at room temperature. 15.6 g (98% by weight, 0.221 mol) of 1,2,4-triazole and 3.47 g (0.085 mol) of NaOH flakes were added under stirring. The reaction mixture was heated to 125 to 126°C and then stirred for a total of 5 h at this temperature. An HPLC sample showed complete conversion to the desired product (ratio of triazol-1-yl / triazol-4-yl about 10:1). About 93% DMF was evaporated at 125 °C / from 300 to 60 mbar. To the concentrated reaction mixture, 150 g of butyl acetate and 92.3 g of water were added, and the mixture was stirred for 10 minutes. Then, the aqueous phase was separated at 80°C.
[0216] The organic phase was concentrated at 85°C / from 400 to 130 mbar by 50% (distilled from 117.6 g of butyl acetate). The solution was cooled to 60°C and seeded with the product and stirred at this temperature for 30 minutes so that the product slowly crystallized. Further cooling to 0°C at a rate of 7.5° K/h followed by suction filtration of the product, washing with 42.8 g of n-butyl acetate at 0°C and drying in a drying cabinet at 55°C / 15 mbar led to 52.1 g of product (78.1% of theory, with a purity of 98.9% determined by quantitative HPLC chromatography, Triazol-4-yl isomer: 0.74%) . EXAMPLE M2 - Preparation 2-[4-(4-chlorophenoxy)-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-1-(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)propan-2-ol
[0217] 50 g (83% by weight, 0.1263 mol) of 2-[4-(4-chlorophenoxy)-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-2-methyl-oxirane was dissolved in 102.9 g of DMF at room temperature. 11.6 g (0.98% by weight, 0.164 mol) of 1,2,4-triazole and 11.68 g (0.095 mol) of 4-dimethylaminopyridine were added under stirring. The reaction mixture was heated at 129°C for 22 h. An HPLC sample showed complete conversion to the desired product. The crude yield was determined by quantitative HPLC of the final reaction mixture (172.4 g at a content of 24.9%) at 85.6%.
[0218] 165 g of the reaction mixture were distilled without using a column (13 mbar, final temperature 150 °C). The first fractions contained most of DMAP. Recycling this base using a column should therefore be feasible. The distillation residue contained the desired product with a purity of 83.6%. Crystallization from an organic solvent such as toluene or n-butyl acetate is expected to significantly improve purity, according to experience with the compound. EXAMPLE M3 - 2-[4-(4-chlorophenoxy)-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-3-methyl-1-(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)butan-2-ol
[0219] 2-[4-(4-chlorophenoxy)-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-2-isopropyloxirane (92.9 g, 76.9% by weight, 0.217 mol) was dissolved in 180.6 g of DMF. To this solution, 27.4 g (98% by weight, 0.391 mol) of triazole and 4.7 g (0.117 mol) of NaOH powder were added at 25°C. After heating to 125°C, the mixture of The reaction was stirred at this temperature for 22.5 h in total. An HPLC sample still showed the remaining oxirane and a ratio of the triazole products of 10.3:1 (triazol-1-yl / triazol-4-yl). Addition of an additional 0.3 eq of triazole and stirring for an additional 2 h at 125 °C did not improve the conversion. About 79% of the DMF was evaporated down to 60°C / 4 mbar. 413 g of toluene and 205 g of water were added to the reaction mixture concentrated at 80°C. Then, the aqueous phase was separated at 55°C. The toluene solution was concentrated to 90°C / 40 mbar until a solid remained. 108 g residue. 111 g of methanol were added to the residue at 60°C. The obtained solution was cooled to -1°C at a rate of 5°C/h. The seed crystals were added at 45°C. The suspension of solids was easily stirred and was separated by suction filtration and washed 1 time with 25 g of fresh, cold (0°C) methanol. The solid compound was dried at 55°C and 50 mbar. Yield: 64.8 g (96.9% by weight, triazol-1-yl / triazol-4-yl ratio about 100:1); 73% of theory. The crystals contained residual methanol as detected as 1H NMR; Melting point: 114 to 115 °C.
