Reaction Saccharin

Although benzenesulphonyl chloride has for simplicity been used in the above discussion, tolucne-/>- sulphonyl chloride, CHaCeH SO Cl, is more frequently used in the laboratory, owing to its much lower cost, the latter being due in turn to the fact that toluene-p-sulphonyl chloride is a by-product in the commercial preparation of saccharin. Toluene-p sulphonyl chloride is a crystalline substance, of m.p. 68° the finely powdered chloride will, however, usually react readily with amines in the Schotten-Baumann reaction it does not react so readily with alcohols, but the reaction may be promoted considerably by first dissolving the chloride in some inert water-soluble solvent such as acetone. 

Acryhc stmctural adhesives have been modified by elastomers in order to obtain a phase-separated, toughened system. A significant contribution in this technology has been made in which acryhc adhesives were modified by the addition of chlorosulfonated polyethylene to obtain a phase-separated stmctural adhesive (11). Such adhesives also contain methyl methacrylate, glacial methacrylic acid, and cross-linkers such as ethylene glycol dimethacrylate [97-90-5]. The polymerization initiation system, which includes cumene hydroperoxide, N,1S7-dimethyl- -toluidine, and saccharin, can be apphed to the adherend surface as a primer, or it can be formulated as the second part of a two-part adhesive. Modification of cyanoacrylates using elastomers has also been attempted copolymers of acrylonitrile, butadiene, and styrene ethylene copolymers with methylacrylate or copolymers of methacrylates with butadiene and styrene have been used. However, because of the extreme reactivity of the monomer, modification of cyanoacrylate adhesives is very difficult and material purity is essential in order to be able to modify the cyanoacrylate without causing premature reaction. 

The reducing-end units (see Fig. 8) are highly labile in alkaline solutions. After an initial attack by hydroxide ions at the hemiacetal function, C-1, a series of enoHzations and rearrangements leads to deoxy acids, ie, saccharinic acids, and fragmentation. Substituents on one or more hydroxyl groups influence the direction, rate, and products of reaction. 

Saccharin does not comply with the normal 4n + 2)ir-electron rule for aromaticity, but in view of the fact that it has been shown earlier to have a degree of ir-electron delocalization through the sulfur atom, and for convenience of classification of its chemical reactions, it will be considered to be aromatic in the subsequent sections dealing with its chemistry. 

Few isothiazoles undergo simple cycloaddition reactions. 4-Nitroisothiazoles add to alkynes (see Section 4.17.7.4). With 5-thiones (84) and dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate, addition to both sulfur atoms leads to 1,3-dithioles (85) (77SST(4)339, 80H(14)785, 81H(16)156, 81H(16)595). Isothiazol-3-one 1-oxide and the corresponding 1,1-dioxide give normal adducts with cyclopentadiene and anthracene (80MI41700), and saccharin forms simple 1 1 or 1 2 adducts with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (72IJC(B)881). 

The most widely used variant of the Gabriel-Colman is the conversion of saccharine derivatives to benzothiazine derivatives. The reaction has been extensively studied as benzothiazines are important pharmacophores, particularly in the oxicam class of antiinflammatories. The first reported instance of this transformation was in 1956 where 43 was treated with sodium methoxide to provide 44. The rearrangement also works with esters " and some amides " in addition to ketones. 

The mechanism of this variant of the Gabriel-Colman reaction has been investigated. Treatment of saccharine derivatives 45-48 with 1-2 equivalents of sodium alkoxide at room temperature provides esters 49-52 in good yields treatment of 45-48 with sodium alkoxide at reflux provides the expected benzothiazines 53-56. Increased concentration leads to higher yields. 

For high diazomethane concentrations, the Sn2 reaction, Eq. (7), and thus A—methylation occurs, whereas 0-methylation is favored by lower diazomethane concentrations, Eq, (6) (for an interpretation of this effect, according to Arndt, see references 33 and 42). The extent of this effect is limited by the constitution of the lactam in question. The fact that the addition of the sodium salt of saccharin to the reaction mixture leads to increased A -mcthylation for saccharin can be taken as supporting the foregoing interpretation. 

When diazomethane is slowly added to excess lactam, the anions formed can interact with unreacted lactam by means of hydrogen bonds to form ion pairs similar to those formed by acetic acid-tri-ethylamine mixtures in nonpolar solvents. The methyldiazonium ion is then involved in an ion association wdth the mono-anion of a dimeric lactam which is naturally less reactive than a free lactam anion. The velocity of the Sn2 reaction, Eq. (7), is thus decreased. However, the decomposition velocity of the methyldiazonium ion, Eq. (6a), is constant and, hence, the S l character of the reaction is increased which favors 0-methylation. It is possible that this effect is also involved in kinetic dependence investigations have shown that with higher saccharin concentrations more 0-methylsaccharin is formed. 

The effect of solvents on the reactions of lactams with diazomethane can be pronounced saccharin gives only A -methyl derivative in benzene solution, but in ethereal solution up to 24% of 0-methyl saccharin is formed in the still more strongly polar solvent di-... 

The use of HMDS (ca. 1.5 mmol) and saccharin (0.01 mmol) per mmol of substrate in refluxing dichloromethane or chloroform has been recommended (5) for easy silylation of carboxylic acids, including azetidin-2-one-4-carboxyIic acids. Clear solutions result, i.e., no ammonium salts are present at completion of the reaction, and consequently the silyl esters can be obtained by direct distillation, or merely by evaporation of solvent. 

Bode and co-workers have used NHCs to form y-butyrolactams 34 from enals 27 and saccharin-derived cyclic sulfonylimines 32. A range of [3-alkyl and [3-aryl substituted enals, and a variety of substituted imines, are tolerated in this reaction,... 

Bode and co-workers have demonstrated the application of such substrates in a number of reactions, including cyclopentene ring formation and y-lactamisation [15]. For example, y-lactamisation to give 56 with saccharin-derived sulfonylimines 54 was achieved from a-hydroxyenone 53 with moderate to excellent stereocontrol (Scheme 12.10). 

Various saccharin derivatives 260 have been prepared by chromium (VI) oxide catalyzed H5IO6 oxidation of substituted ort/ro-toluenesulfonamides 259 <06T7902>. The reaction presumably proceeds through a benzylic radical intermediate 261 generated from the...

The best preparative method of obtaining terephthalic acid is to oxidise the sodium salt of p-toluic acid with permanganate at the temperature of the water bath. In the same way toluene can be converted into benzoic acid, and an important technical example of this reaction is the oxidation, of o-tolylsulphonamide to saccharin. 

In a similar manner, saccharin has been A-alkylated and A-acylated (Table 5.17) [31, 32], There is good evidence that the kinetic O-alkylated product is initially formed and it is converted into the thermodynamically more stable A-alkyl derivative upon prolonged heating [31, 32], The reaction fails with secondary haloalkanes and is most successful with primary bromoalkanes [31, 32].
