10-Undecinic acid is a long-chain, linear unsaturated carboxylic acid with a terminal ethynyl group , which can be produced from 10-undecenoic acid, which is easily accessible from castor oil , by bromination and dehydrobromination and has fungicidal properties.

Manufacturing

10-Undecinic acid is obtained by adding bromine to the terminal double bond of 10-Undecenoic acid and then splitting off hydrogen bromide twice with sodium amide in liquid ammonia after fractional distillation and two recrystallization from petroleum ether in a yield of 38-42% of theory. receive.

10-Undecinic Acid Synthesis

According to a similar process variant, the pure yield after evaporation of the ammonia and one-time recrystallization from hexane is over 85% of theory.

The dehydrobromination also provides in a much simplified manner under phase transfer conditions with Aliquat 336 ( trioctylmethylammonium chloride ) and powdered sodium hydroxide in 1,2-dimethoxyethane 10-undecinic acid with a yield of 81% of theory. A similar process is also described in polyethylene glycol as a solvent with quantitative yield.

properties

10-Undecinic acid is a white to pale yellow colored, odorless and crystalline solid that dissolves only very little in water at room temperature. In contrast, the acid is readily soluble in short-chain alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, as well as in dichloromethane and DMSO . 10-undecinic acid is referred to as a natural fungicide (" a natural fungicide ") without any evidence (the fungicidal effect of 10-undecinic acid, however, has been extensively documented). In the European Union and in Switzerland, 10-undecinic acid is not approved as a crop protection agent.

Applications

10-Undecinic acid is suitable for stabilizing gold nanoparticles by neutralizing a gold (III) chloride solution to which it has been added and then heating it, whereby the typical bright red color of colloidal gold appears.

10-undecynoic acid can be esterified with methanol to obtain 10-undecynoic acid methyl ester , which is converted in a thiol-in coupling reaction with mercaptoethanol to give 10,11-bis (hydroxyethylthio) undecanoic acid methyl ester and after reduction of the methyl ester group as a polyol component for polyurethanes can be used with good biocompatibility.

Thiol-In coupling to the triol

The methyl ester can also be converted into a star-shaped triol of interest for segmented polyurethanes by transition metal-catalyzed cyclotrimerization and subsequent hydrogenation of the methyl ester function.

Trimerization of methyl 10-undecinate

11-iodo-10-undecynoic acid, which is formed by iodination of 10-undecynoic acid in alkaline, as well as its zinc salt and phenyl ester show up to 100 times more fungicidal effect than 10-undecenoic acid.

Via its reactive ethynyl group, 10-undecinic acid can be linked in an asymmetric acetylene coupling Cadiot-Chodkiewicz coupling with bromoalkynols in the presence of copper (I) chloride to form long-chain ω-hydroxycarboxylic acids. the bromoalkynols required for this can be prepared by bromination of the ethynyl group with hypobromite .

Omega hydroxydiacetylenecarboxylic acids

With 1-bromopentyn-5-ol, 14-hydroxy-10,12-hexadecadiinic acid is obtained in a yield of 75% of theory obtained and can be hydrogenated on a platinum contact with 98% yield to the saturated ω-hydroxyhexadecanoic acid.

Long-chain substituted, disk-shaped mesogens as the base body of columnar liquid crystal phases can be obtained in a Steglich esterification with dicyclohexylcarbodiimide / 4- (dimethylamino) pyridine of 10-undecinic acid with a hydroxytriphenylene compound. A star-shaped trimer which has interesting liquid-crystalline properties can be formed from the ester obtained by means of a dicobalt octacarbonyl -catalyzed [2 + 2 + 2] cycloaddition .

Discotic mesogens

10-Undecinic acid can be used as an anchor for functional molecules on carbohydrates, such as. B. Serve strength . The enzymatic esterification catalyzed by lipolase yields starch 10-undecinoate, to whose terminal ethynyl group via a Cu (I) -catalyzed azide / alkyne cycloaddition (see also click chemistry ), azide-functionalized fluorescent labels or azide-derivatized biotin are bound, and the labeled streptavidin is added able to bind.

10-undecinic acid is the starting material for pheromone syntheses, e.g. B. the insect attractant dodec-10E-enyl acetate.
