Phellogenic acid or chemically 1,22-docosanedioic acid is a chemical compound from the group of α, ω- dicarboxylic acids .

Occurrence

Phellogenic acid occurs naturally in cork and Japanese wax .

Manufacturing

A standard process for the production of docosanedioic acid makes use of the general method of lengthening the chain length of carboxylic acids by six or of dicarboxylic acids by twelve carbon atoms by single or, in the case of dicarboxylic acids, double reaction of the corresponding acid chlorides with the cyclic enamine 1-morpholino-1-cyclohexene and then Wolff-Kishner reduction of the intermediate 7,16-diketodocosanoic acid.

[Similarly, 1-morpholino-1-cyclopentene can be used to extend the length by five or ten carbon atoms. ]

1,22-docosanedioic acid according to Hünig

The other older synthetic routes to docosanedioic acid cited in the monograph on Organic Syntheses are complex and unproductive in terms of starting materials and process conditions. B. the mentioned reaction of α, ω-Diiodeicosan with potassium cyanide and hydrolysis of the dinitrile formed.

The best access to 1,22-docosanedioic acid is offered by the copper (I) chloride- catalyzed oxidative coupling of 10-undecinic acid to 10,12-docosadiyne-1,22-diacid with a yield of 90% of theory. and their practically quantitative catalytic hydrogenation to the title compound.

10,12-docosadiindioic acid according to Seher

The starting compound 10-undecynoic is on from castor oil inexpensively available 10-undecenoic relatively easily accessible.

Biochemically, docosanedioic acid is formed during the ω-oxidation of n -docosanoic acid ( behenic acid ) in the microsomes from rat liver cells via the intermediate 22-hydroxydocosanoic acid.

properties

When recrystallized from methanol, 1,22-docosadioic acid forms fine, colorless crystal needles with a waxy consistency. With its long C 20 hydrocarbon chain between the two functional end groups, 1,22-docosadioic acid is a distinctly hydrophobic spacer for chemical and biochemical conjugates.

Applications

One such application of the hydrophobic docosanedioic acid as a spacer between two 17 β -estradiol units leads to Estradioldimeren high strength of binding to specific estrogen receptors (ERa).

Phellogenic natural origin from beach Lilac (Limonium sp.) Acts as an inhibitor for the enzyme tyrosine phosphatase (PTP1B), which is an important negative regulator of the insulin receptor.

By reaction z. B. with N-hydroxysuccinimide under suitable conditions, a monosubstituted imide ester (active ester or NHS ester) of docosanedioic acid is obtained, which is used to modify enzymes and extend the plasma half-life of the biologically active proteins derivatized in this way and reduce their antigenicity.

Mono-NHS ester of docosandioic acid

Surface-active compounds of the ABA molecule type are obtained by reacting the activated carboxyl end groups of docosanedioic acid (building block A) with monomethoxy polyethylene glycols (building blocks B),

mPEG diester of docosandioic acid (ABA surfactant)

which are ascribed useful as solubilizers, wetting agents and embedding materials for drug delivery.

Docosanedioic acid can be used to stabilize microparticles with a biodegradable matrix of starch by crosslinking and hydrophobizing them (together with gas) as ultrasound contrast media.
