Process for preparing vanillylamine hydrochloride
78894tra.206

The invention relates to a process for preparing vanillylamine hydrochloride
which
can be used on an industrial scale.

Background to the invention
Vanillylamine hydrochloride is an intermediate product in the preparation of
1o pelargonic acid vanillylamide, which is used as a hyperemia inducing active
substance, e.g. in plasters.
German Patent DE 760 746 describes the preparation of vanillylamine
hydrochloride,
in which the isolated 4-hydroxy-3-methoxy-benzaldoxime used as starting
material is
reduced using hydrogen in the presence of activated charcoal and palladium
oxide in
an acetic acid solution and with the subsequent addition of hydrochloric acid
to obtain
the vanillylamine hydrochloride.
The preparation of 4-hydroxy-3-methoxy-benzaldoxime from vanillin and
hydroxylamine hydrochloride in a basic medium is described in the literature
(J. Org.
Chem. Vol. 53, No. 5, 1988). First, the oxime is isolated and then reduced to
the
amine in an ethanolic hydrochloric acid solution. The isolation of the oxime
represents a significant expenditure of cost and time, particularly in the
production of
vanillylamine hydrochloride on an industrial scale.

The problem of the present invention is therefore to prepare a cost effective
process
for preparing vanillylamine hydrochloride which can be used on an industrial
scale.
Detailed description of the invention

The present invention solves the problem described above by the following
method
of synthesis.

The invention thus relates to a process for preparing vanillylamine or one of
the salts
thereof by
a) reacting vanillin with hydroxylamine or the salts thereof in the presence
of an
organic salt, which may optionally be produced in situ, and


CA 02461574 2004-03-24
1/1257 Prio/ff 2

b) subsequently hydrogenating the resulting vanillyloxime with hydrogen in the
presence of a suitable catalyst and an organic and/or inorganic acid, wherein
step a) is carried out in an inorganic or organic acid as diluent.

In a preferred process steps a) and b) are carried out in a one-pot process.

Also preferred is a process wherein sodium acetate and glacial acetic acid are
used
in step a).

1o In a particularly preferred process vanillin is reacted with hydroxylamine
hydrochloride in step a).

Also particularly preferred is a process wherein Pd/C or Pt/C is used as
catalyst in
step b).
Of particular importance according to the invention is a process wherein the
hydrogenation step b) is carried out in the presence of glacial acetic acid
and
concentrated hydrochloric acid.

The invention preferably relates to a process wherein the reaction temperature
in
step a) is 15 C to 50 C.

The invention preferably relates to a process wherein the reaction temperature
in
step b) is 0 C to 70 C.

Particularly preferred is a process wherein vanillin is used in a molar ratio
to
hydroxylamine or the salt thereof of 1:2 to 2:1, preferably 1:1.

The invention also relates to the use of the vanillylamine or one of the salts
thereof
obtained by the process according to the invention for preparing
pharmaceutically
active compounds.

The invention further relates to the use of the vanillylamine or one of the
salts thereof
obtained by the process according to the invention for preparing pelargonic
acid
vanillylamide.

1/1257 Prio/ff 3

Acids suitable for forming salts of vanillylamine or vanillyloxime include for
example
hydrochloric acid, acetic acid, hydrobromic acid, sulphuric acid, phosphoric
acid,
nitric acid, succinic acid, oxalic acid, malonic acid, fumaric acid, maleic
acid, tartaric
acid, citric acid, ascorbic acid and methanesulphonic acid, particularly
hydrochloric
acid, sulphuric acid or acetic acid.

In a preferred embodiment of the process according to the invention for
preparing the
vanillylamine, as a rule one equivalent of vanillin is suspended in 3 to 20
parts (based
to on the weight of vanillin used), preferably about 5 parts, of an acid
diluent, preferably
glacial acetic acid, hydrochloric acid or sulphuric acid, most preferably
glacial acetic
acid, and combined with 1 to 2 equivalents, preferably one equivalent of an
organic
salt, for example sodium hydroxide or sodium acetate, preferably sodium
acetate,
most preferably anhydrous sodium acetate.
1s The suspension is combined with 1 to 2 equivalents, preferably one
equivalent, of
hydroxylamine or a hydroxylamine salt, preferably hydroxylamine hydrochloride
or
hydroxylamine sulphate, preferably hydroxylamine hydrochloride, with stirring.
The
reaction mixture is heated to 25 C to 50 C, preferably 28 C to 40 C, more
preferably about 30 C to 35 C, and stirred for 0.5 to 8 hours, preferably
about 3
20 hours.
The vanillyloxime produced remains in suspension and is hydrogenated by the
addition of 0.1 to 10 parts (based on the weight of vanillin used), preferably
about 0.7
parts, of acid, preferably hydrochloric acid or sulphuric acid, preferably
hydrochloric
acid, and 1 to 20 % by weight (based on the vanillin used), preferably 10 % by
25 weight, of a catalyst, preferably a transition metal catalyst, preferably a
Pd/C, Pt or
Ra-Ni catalyst, most preferably a Pd/C catalyst, while hydrogen is piped into
the
reaction mixture, under a hydrogen pressure of 1 to 7 bar, but preferably from
3 to 5
bar, most preferably 4 bar, at a temperature of 0 C to 70 C, preferably 10
C to
35 C, preferably about 10 C.
3o Then the vanillylamine produced or the salt thereof is completely dissolved
by the
addition of water and optionally heating to 40 C to 70 C, preferably about 60
C. The
catalyst is filtered off. The filtrate is heated to 50 C to 70 C, preferably
about 60 C,
optionally after the diluent used, preferably acetic acid, has been distilled
off, in order
to dissolve the salts and the vanillylamine or the salt thereof, and water is
added

thereto. In order to precipitate the vanillylamine salt the reaction mixture
is combined
with an inorganic or organic acid, preferably hydrochloric acid. The
suspension
formed is cooled and the salt of the vanillylamine is filtered, optionally
washed with a
solvent, preferably acetone, and dried.
The procedure according to the invention results in a cost effective process
with a
high space/time yield with regard to the vanillylamine or the salts thereof.

The Examples that follow serve to illustrate some processes for preparing
to vanillylamine or the salts thereof which are carried out by way of example.
They
should be understood as being only possible procedures described purely by way
of
example without restricting the invention to their content.

30 mixture is combined with 141 ml of water in order to dissolve the
vanillylamine
hydrochloride and the salts and stirred at 60 C for 0.5 hours. After the
