The inve~tion relates to novel a-alkyl glycidic and
thioglycidic arid derivatives having the formula:

~herein n is an integer from 10 to 14 and preferably from 11 to 13;
R is a næmber selec-ted frcM the grcup consis~ng o~ OH, O-loweralkyl,
NH2, N~-loweraIkyl, NH-loweralkyl-OH and N(loweralkyl)2; X is a m~
selected from the grcup consis~ng of O and S, preferably O; and Rl
S an~ R2 are each a member selected from the group consisting of hydrcgen
and loweralkyl. The therap~utically acceptable basic salts of the
foregoing acids, i.e., when R is O~, are also included within the scope
of this invention.
As used herein, the term "loweralkyl" may be straight or
branch chained saturated hydrocarbons having from 1 to about
5 carbons, e.g., methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, sec-butyl,
pentyl and the like alkyls.
The oxy esters of formula (I), wherein each of said ~ and ~ is hydrogen,
are re!adily obtained from an appropriate a-alkylacrylic acid of formula (II).
Such acids may be obtained according to the synthetic procedure
described by Pfe~fer et al., J. Org. Chem., 37. 1256 (1972).
Conventional esterification of (II), with an appropriate lower-
alkanol esterifying agent yields the corresponding loweralkyl
esters of-formula (III). Epoxidation of (III) according to `
standard oxidation procedures with an appropriate organic
percarboxylic acid as the oxidant affords the corresponding
loweralkyl a-alkyl~glycidates of formula (IV). Typical epoxida-
tion peracids include, for example, perbenzoic acid, haloper-
benzoic acid, preferably m-chloroperbenzoic acid, monoperphthalic
acid, perace~tic acid and the like. Among the suitable sol~ents
for the peroxidation reaction are, for example, a halogenated
hydrocarbon, e.g., dichloroethane, chloroform and the like, and
an ether, e.g., diethyl ether, dioxane and the like. .

The oxy esters of formula (I), i.e., where X = 0,
wherein one of said Rl and R2 is-loweralkyl, as shown
in formula (VIII), may be prepared rom the interaction
of an appropriate loweralkyl ~-loweralkylacrylate o~
formula (V), which has first been treated with a strong
base capable of removing an -hydrogen from said acrylate,
with an appropriate alkyl halide of formula (VI), pre-
ferably the bromide or chloride. Typical of the utilizable
strong bases are a lithium dialkylamide, e.g., LiN(i-Pr)2,
an alkali metal amide, e.g., NaNH2, and the like. The
reaction is conducted in a suitable aprotic inert~,organic
solvent under ~inert atmosphere, e.g., nit~ogen, and preferably at
lcw temperatures of -80 to -30~C. Suitabl~ sDlvents include the

loweralkanes such as hexane, heptane and the like and other
solvents whose freezing points are low enough to be suit~blc
for the cooled reaction conditions. A particularly useful
solvent system is hexamethylphosphoramide (HMPA) as a cosolYent
in tetrahydrofuran (THF). The! thus-obtained esters -(VII) may .
then be epoxidized, as previously described, to yield ~he

A general method for making all the oxy esters of
formula (I), including those wherein bath of said Rl and R2
are loweralXyl, is by the Darzens giycidic ester conden3ation
type of reaction (see Newman in "Organic Reactions", Vol. 5,
New York:' John Wiley ~ Sons, Inc., 1949, Chap. 10). An ,!
aldol type condensation of an appropriate aldehyde or ketone
with an appropriate a-halo ester produces the glycidic ester
A~cordingly, an a-halo ester of formula (IX), pretreated with
a suitable strong base, è.g., an alkali metal alkoxide or
amide, capable o~ removing an a-hydrogen, is reacted ~ith
an appropriate aldehyde o~ ketone of formula (X) undèr Darzens
reactions conditions to yield the desired oxy-esters (XI).

The thio es~ers of ormula (I), i.e., with X = S, are
obtained by transorn)ation of the oxy ~unction in (XI) to
a thio fullction (yr--b) by treating (Xl) with thiourea in the
presence of a strol~g mineral acid, pre~erably sulfuric
aci~, in a suitable anhydrous organic solvent such
as, fGr example, absolute methanol, ethanol and the like,
and then neutralizing the thus-obtained intermediate of
formula(,~-a)with an appropriate base, such as, for example,
an alkali metal carbonate or bicarbonate.

The oxy esters (XI) an~ the thio esters ~xI-b) a~ shown .in
: combined formula (XII) wherein X respresents O or S, respectively,
may then be used as precursors i.-or making othex respective oxy
and thio derivatives of formula (I). For example, stan~ard
ester-to-acid hydrolysis of (XII) under conventional acidic
or alkaline conditions affords the corresponding acids of formula
(XIII). In turn, the acids ~XIII) may be re-esterified accord- I
ing to standard carboxylic acid to ester esterificati3n pro- . i
cedures with an appropriate loweralkanol as the esterifying
agent, generally in the presence of a catalytic amount of
strong mineral acid, e.g., HCl, H2SO~ and the like, to yiel~
the loweralkyl esters of formula (XII).

The acids of formula (XIII) may be converted to the
corresponding salt form by treatment with a slight excess
of an equival~nt amount of an appropriate base, for example,
an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal hydroxide, e.g.,
sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide
and the like, or with an organic amine base, e~g., mono-,
di- and tri-low~ralkyl amines such as ethylamine, propylamine,
methylethylamine, triethylamine and the like t or other amines
such as benzylamine, methylphenylamine, piperidine, pyrrolidine
and the like.
The acids (XIII) may also be used as precursors for makin~
the esters, amides and substituted amides of formula (I).
For example, standard estsrification pro~edures with an
- appropriate loweralkanol as the esterifying agent afford the
corresponding loweralkyl esters (XII). The corresponding
amides are obtained by standard acid-to-amide~procedures,
preferably by first transorming the carboxylic function of
the acid (XIII) into the corresponding acid chloride form (XVII~,
for example, by treatment of the acid or its alkali metal salt
with thionyl chloride or oxalyl chloride in an inert organic
solvent ~uitaole for such transformations, e.g., an aromatic
hydrocar~on, chloroform and the Iike, and then reacting the
thus-obtained acid chloride with either ammonia, loweralkyl
amine or diloweralkyl amine in a suitable organic solvent for
such ammonolysis reactions, e.g., an aromatic hydrocarbon,
acetonitrile and the like, to yield the respective amides of
formulas (XIV), ~XV) and ~XVI).

Alt~n~tively~ the amudes of formula tI), wherein each of said Rl and

by similar transformation to the corresponding acid chloride
form ~XVIII) followed by appropriate interaction with ammonia,

verted to the corresponding thio amides (XXI) according to

The oxo-amides and thio-amides of formula (I~ may also be
conveniently prepared from the acids (XIII) as follows. The
acid is first transformed into an appropriate ammonium salt
by standard treatment with a tertiary
amine, as exemplified by the triethylammonium salt of formula
(XXII). The salt is in turn transformed into a mixed anhydride
(XXIII) by reaction with an appropriate haloalkylformate, pre-
- ferably ethyl chloroformate,which anhydride is then reacted
with ammonia or an appropriate primary or secondary alk~lamine
in a suitable inert aprotic organic solvent, for example, an ethPr, P.g.,
dioxane, tetrahy~rofuran, and the like~ or an aromatic hydrocarbon, e.g.,
benzene, toluene, xylene and the like to yield the re~ ive amides o

The compounds of formula (I) and salts thereof are
useful for their hypoglycemic activity as demonstrated in
a standard blood glucose tolerance test ~GTT) in rats.
Three to five glucose primed, fasted (18-24 hrs.), in act
m~le rats are used for each test and control group. The
- compound to be tested is suspended in 0.5% aqueous methyl-
cellulose and administered at doses of 10-150 mg/kg either intra-
peritoneally, subcutaneously or orally 30-60 minutes prior
to administration of glucose. The glucose is given either
ln orally (1 g/kg) or subcutaneously (0.8 g/kg). Serial blood
samples are obtained from the tail without anes~lesia at
thirty minute intervals for 3 hours after administration
of the glucose. Blood specimens are Lmmediately deproteinized
with barium hydroxide and zinc sulfate according to conventional
GTT procedures and glucose levels are determined using the
standard glucose oxidase assay. A significant depression of
blood sugar from that of controls is observed with the sub-
ject compounds.
The following examples are intended to illustrate, but
not to limit, the scope of the present invention.

EXP~IPLE I
.
This example illustrates the method described by
Pfeffer et al., J. Org. Chem., 37, 1256 tl972), for
prepar~ng a-alkylhydracrylic acids of the ~ormula:
CH3(CH2) -C(C~2OH)H-COOH, wherein n is an integer from
10 to 14. These a-alkylhydracrylic acids are precursors
for making the ~-alkylacrylic acids of formula (II~.
a-Hydroxymethylpalmitic acid: Anhydrous tetrahydo-
furan (THF) (8~5 ml) and 49.5 g (0.49 mole) of diisopropyl-
amine were added to a dry three neck flask purged with
nitrogen and maintained under a nitrogen atmosphere.
After cooling the mixture to -20, 300 ml of n-butyllithium
in hexane (1.6M) (0.49 mole) was added slowly to prevent
the temperature from exceeding 0~and bhen 79.3 ml of an-
hydrous hexamethylphosphoramide (HMPA) (0.44 mole) was added.
A solution of 51.28 g of palmitic acid (0.198 mole) in 400 ml
of THF was added dropwise with stirring while maintaining
the reaction temperature below 0. ~ milky white suspension
resulted after the addition of palmitic acid. The reaction
mixture was bxought to about 40 by using a warm water bath.
The suspension changed to a clear solution as the temperature
gradually reached 40. This system was then connected to a
formaldehyde generating system. Parafo~maldehyde (40 g) was
heated in a three neck flask at 180-200 to generate formaldehyde
and the formaldehyde vapors-were carried by a stream of nitrogen
over the surface of the stirred solution of ~-lithiated lithium
palmit~te prepared previously. The reaction was terminated
- 8 -

MN-286
after complete depolymerization of paraformaldehyde (2 to 2 1~2
hrs.). The reaction solution was cooled in an ice bath and
neùtralized with hydrochloric acid until acidic. The organic
layer was separated and was concentrated under reduced pressure
on a rotavac to remove most of the THF solvent. The resulting
oily residue was dissolved in 2 liters of ether and was washed
three times with 10% hydrochloric acid solution and then
twice with water. The ether layer was dried over Na2SO4 ',
and the solvents were removed under reduced pressure to
give 43.3 g (7~%) of crude product, a-hydroxymethylpalmitic
acid, which was recrystallized once from acetone to give
39.0 g ~69% yield) of the product with m.p. ~7-71, which
was used without further purification in the next synthetic
step.
EXAMPLE II
By repeating the procedure of Example I, except that
an equivalent amount of an appropriate fatty acid is sub-
stituted for the palmitic acid use~ therein the following
respective a-al~ylhydracrylic acids are obtained:

This example illustrates a method (see Pfeffer et al.,
ibid.) of preparing the a-alky'Lacrylic acids of formula (II)
through dehydration of the appropriate a-alkylhydracrylic

A. 2-Tetradecylacrylic acid: A 34.25 g sample of
~-hydroxymethylpalmitic acid ~0.119 mole) and 17 drops of
phosphoric acid (85~) were placed in a distillation flask
and the mixture heated to 24~-255C in an oil bath under
vacuum. The product, 2-tetradecylacrylic acid, distilled
over at 155-160C at 0.10 mm Hg (24.80 g; 77~ yield) and was
crystallized from acetone, m.p. 53-55C.

EXAMPLE IV
A. Methyl 2-tetradecylacrylate: 14.6 Grams of 2-
tetradecylacrylic acid (0.05~ mole) are combined with 65
ml of absolute methanol and 15 ml of 51% BF3 in methanol
in a 200 ml flask equipped with a condenser and drying
5 tube. The system is heated under reflux for six hours (two
layars appear when cooled). The mixture is concentrated
to 1/~ volume and the acid is neutralized with saturated
NaHCO3 solution to about pH 7. The oily material is
extracted with ether, washed with water and dried over
anhydrous MgSO4. The ether solvent is removed under
re~uced pressure. The oily residue of methyl 2-tetrade-
cylacrylate (14.70 g) is not purified further (~ 95% pure
by GC) and used directly in the next step.
