Succinic acid anhydrides esters

Four main types of antioxidants are commonly used in polypropylene stabilizer systems although many other types of chemical compounds have been suggested. These types include hindered phenolics, thiodi-propionate esters, aryl phosphites, and ultraviolet absorbers such as the hydroxybenzophenones and benzotriazoles. Other chemicals which have been reported include aromatic amines such as p-phenylenediamine, hydrocarbon borates, aminophenols, Zn and other metal dithiocarbamates, thiophosphates, and thiophosphites, mercaptals, chromium salt complexes, tin-sulfur compounds, triazoles, silicone polymers, carbon black, nickel phenolates, thiurams, oxamides, metal stearates, Cu, Zn, Cd, and Pb salts of benzimidazoles, succinic acid anhydride, and others. The polymeric phenolic phosphites described here are another type.

Succinic acid esters of monoglycerides (SMG) are anionic active emulsifiers made by reacting saturated Cie/Cis fatty acid monoglycerides (preferably distilled) with pure succinic anhydride at a ratio of approximately 4 1 by weight for about 1 h at 120 °C. The resulting succinic acid half ester of monoglycerides has a free carboxyl group which may be partially neutralized with alkali. 

Cydopentane reagents used in synthesis are usually derived from cyclopentanone (R.A. Ellison, 1973). Classically they are made by base-catalyzed intramolecular aldol or ester condensations (see also p. 55). An important example is 2-methylcydopentane-l,3-dione. It is synthesized by intramolecular acylation of diethyl propionylsucdnate dianion followed by saponification and decarboxylation. This cyclization only worked with potassium t-butoxide in boiling xylene (R. Bucourt, 1965). Faster routes to this diketone start with succinic acid or its anhydride. A Friedel-Crafts acylation with 2-acetoxy-2-butene in nitrobenzene or with pro-pionyl chloride in nitromethane leads to acylated adducts, which are deacylated in aqueous acids (V.J. Grenda, 1967 L.E. Schick, 1969). A new promising route to substituted cyclopent-2-enones makes use of intermediate 5-nitro-l,3-diones (D. Seebach, 1977). 

Various techniques have been proposed for the recovery of pure succinic acid, including extraction (141—145), selective crystalliza tion (146—151), heating to dehydrate the acid and subsequent recovery of succinic anhydride by distillation (152), esterification foUowed by fractionation of the mixture of the esters (65—69), and separation as urea adduct (118,119). 

Mixed esters containing the dicarboxylate moiety, eg, cellulose acetate phthalate, are usually prepared from the partially hydroly2ed lower aUphatic acid ester of cellulose in acetic acid solvent by using the corresponding dicarboxyhc acid anhydride and a basic catalyst such as sodium acetate (41,42). Cellulose acetate succinate and cellulose acetate butyrate succinate are manufactured by similar methods as described in reference 43. 

Convincing evidence for a surface erosion process is shown in Fig. 8, which shows the concomitant release of the incorporated marker, methylene blue, release of the anhydride excipient hydrolysis product, succinic acid, and total weight loss of the device. According to these data, the release of an incorporated drug from an anhydride-catalyzed erosion of poly (ortho esters) can be unambiguously described by a polymer surface erosion mechanism.

The second relevant set of data is for the formation of the anhydride from substituted succinic acid derivatives. Equilibrium constants for the formation of the anhydride from the acid are available for the various methyl-substituted compounds (Table A.l) and the derived EM s are compared in Table 5 with those for intramolecular nucleophilic catalysis in the hydrolysis of half-esters... 

Octahydrodibenzothiophene (73) has been prepared by the following sequence. Friedel-Crafts acylation of 4,5,6,7-tetra-hydrobenzo[6]thiophene with succinic anhydride (87%) or with the ester chloride of succinic acid followed by hydrolysis (80%), yields the keto acid (74). Huang-Minlon reduction of 74 followed by cyclization of the derived acid chloride with stannic chloride yields l-keto-1,2,3,4,6,7,-8,9-octahydrodibenzothiophene (53) (Section V,A). Reduction of 53 gives 73 as a solid (overall yield 32%). 

The subsequent cleavage of the thio-ester succinylCoA into succinate and coenzyme A by succinic acid-CoA ligase (succinyl CoA synthetase, succinic thiokinase) is strongly exergonic and is used to synthesize a phosphoric acid anhydride bond ( substrate level phosphorylation , see p. 124). However, it is not ATP that is produced here as is otherwise usually the case, but instead guanosine triphosphate (CTP). However, GTP can be converted into ATP by a nucleoside diphosphate kinase (not shown). 

Methyl- 1,3-cyclopentanedione is a key intermediate for the total synthesis of steroids.2 A number of methods have been described for its preparation, among them the condensation of succinic acid with propionyl chloride,3 and that of succinic anhydride with 2-buten-2-ol acetate,4 both in the presence of aluminum chloride. It has also been obtained from 3-methylcyclopentane-1,2,4-trione by catalytic hydrogenation5 and Wolff-Kishner reduction 6 The base-promoted cyclization of 4-oxohexanoic acid ethyl ester and diethyl propionylsuccinate with tertiary alkoxides was first reported by Bucourt.7 The present cyclization process provides an experimentally simple route to 2-methyl-1,3-cyclopentanedione. Using the same procedure, 4-oxoheptanoic acid ethyl ester has been cyclized to give 2-ethyl-l,3-cyclopentanedione in 46% yield... 

Acid anhydrides have been also used due to the irreversibities of the reaction and the advantage in downprocessing.6 For example, the esterification of a racemic alcohol with succinic anhydride gives (S)-alcohol and (R)-ester (Figure 6(d)). The latter has an acid moiety so can be separated easily from the former due to the solubility difference in weakly basic water. 

The hydrogen succinates are prepared by procedures closely similar to those followed for the phthalates, except that succinic anhydride is used.10 The crude ester is best taken up at once in ether or benzene, and the solution is washed with water to remove succinic acid. The hydrogen succinates are more soluble in the usual solvents than the corresponding phthalates and often do not crystallize readily. Their alkaloid salts also... 

In a third microreactor, the anion of 4-ferf-butyl l-ethyl-2-(diethox-yphosphoryl)succinate was prepared in situ using sodium ethoxide 237 (in EtOH) and the Wittig-Horner olefination with benzaldehyde 116 performed using a residence time of 47 min to afford (E)-ferf-butyl-l-ethyl-2-benzylidenesuccinate 238 in excellent selectivity (89% yield). In a fourth reactor, the acid-catalyzed (TFA 239) ferf-butyl ester deprotection was achieved using a residence time of 5 min at 34 °C and employing DCM as the reaction solvent to afford (E)-3-(ethoxycarbonyl)-4-phenylbut-3-enoic acid 246 in 82% yield. The deprotection was subsequently followed by a Friedel-Crafts acylation, using triethylamine 14 and acetic anhydride 37, to afford 4-acetoxy-naphthalene-2-carboxylic acid ethyl ester 241 in quantitative yield when conducted at 130 °C (residence time = 47 min). 

Indium-mediated allylation of cyclic and acyclic acid anhydrides gives w-diallyl esters.203,204 Examples are shown in Scheme 48 the allylation of succinic anhydride or phthalic anhydride with allyl bromide in DMF in the presence of indium metal results in the formation of diallylbutenolides or diallylphthalides. In contrast, monoallylated hydroxy esters are formed exclusively with y-substituted allylic halides. 

The saturated analogs, e.g., succinic anhydride or succinic esters, behave differently and only in few cases were pyridazines obtained. The reaction between succinic anhydride and various amounts of hydrazine hydrate has been studied under different reaction conditions, but always uncyclized products were formed. One of these is a polymeric hydrazide which, when treated with benzenesulfonyl chloride, yielded the monobenzenesulfonyl derivative of cyclic succinhydrazide (30, R = PhS02) along with a compound formulated as bicyclic disuccinhydrazide (152, Section IV,H, 4), but later shown to be 153. Authentic cyclic succinhydrazide (30, R = H) was obtained upon reducing maleic hydrazide with aluminum amalgam. Previous claims that 30 (R = H) may be obtained from succinic acid or A-aminosuccinimide proved to be incorrect.
