- AN EFFICIENT PROCESS FOR PREPARATION OF ACYL DERIVATIVES OF ALKYLENEDIOXYBENZENES
-
The present disclosure provides a process of preparation of compounds of Formula I comprising the step of : reacting an alkylenedioxybenzene compound of Formula II with an acyl halide of Formula III in presence of a solvent, wherein the step of reacting the alkylenedioxybenzene compound of Formula II with the acyl halide of Formula III is effected in presence of an amphoteric oxide and a Lewis acid so as to immediately quench the compound of formula H-X, formed during the course of the reaction, to substantially eliminate degradation of the compound of any of Formula I and II. The present disclosure also provides for process(es) for preparation of compound of Formula IVa, IVb and IVc.

- AN EFFICIENT AND ENVIRONMENT FRIENDLY PROCESS FOR CHLOROMETHYLATION OF SUBSTITUTED BENZENES
-
Disclosed herein is an efficient, environment friendly and commercially viable process for preparation of chloromethylated compound of formula I in substantially pure form and high yield, from the compound of formula II. The process includes contacting the compound of formula II with a chloromethylating agent generated in-situ by reaction of a formaldehyde precursor and hydrogen chloride, in a suitable solvent/contacting medium and in the presence of a catalytic amount of a short chain/low molecular weight carboxylic acid of formula III. I II III wherein, R1, R2, R3 and R4 are as defined in the description.

- Synthetic and mechanistic investigation of piperonyl butoxide from dihydrosafrole
-
Piperonyl butoxide (PBO) 1 was prepared via the successive chloromethylation and etherification of dihydrosafrole 3. In this work, during the chloromethylation of 3, several by-products such as 5 (the isomer of chloromethyldihydrosafrole 4), 6-propylpiperonyl alcohol 6, bis(chloromethyl)- dihydrosafrole 7 and 8, bis(2-propyl-4,5-methylenedioxyphenyl)methane 9 and di(2-propyl-4,5-methy lene-dioxybenzyl)ether 10 were found. However, it was found that 5, 6, 7, and 8 could undergo a further reaction to the final product (PBO), rather than its derivatives, though the by-products 9 and 10 still existed. Based on these results, the plausible mechanism of the chloromethylation and etherification of 3 was proposed. Furthermore, the reliability of the plausible mechanism was verified by quantum chemical calculations using DFT. In addition, the final product (PBO) was produced with a high selectivity and yield by reducing the by-products 9 and 10. Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2011.

- Cyclodextrin inclusion complex of piperonyl butoxide
-
The invention relates to new inclusion complexes of piperonyl butoxide formed with cyclodextrin. The new complex of the invention can be prepared by reacting cyclodextrin or a solution thereof formed with water and/or an organic solvent having 1-4 carbon atoms, preferably ethanol with piperonyl butoxide or a solution thereof formed with an organic solvent having 1-4 carbon atoms, preferably ethanol at a temperature between 20° C. and 90° C., whereby the piperonyl butoxide is used in an amount of 0.6-1.5 moles related to 1 mole of cyclodextrin. The complexes of the present invention synergize the pesticidal effect of known insecticides and fungicides to a much higher extent of known insecticides and fungicides to a much higher extent than piperonyl butoxide used per se.
