This invention relates to a process for preparing hydrocarbons containing conjugated double bonds and a spiro carbon atom. Such hydrocarbons which are new compositions of matter 2 are formed by the reactions indicated in the following equations:
The dihaloalkane in the above equation is 1,5-dibromo-3,3-dimethylpentane. Other suitable dihaloalkanes are those having the structure represented by R R a arm where R, R, R" and R' are selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and alkyl radicals, n is an integer from 1 to 5 inclusive, and X is halogen. The preferred compounds are those in which R, R, R" and R are hydrogen, i. e. compounds in which the halogen atoms are attached to primary carbon atoms. Foorer yields are obtained when either (or both) halogen atom is attached to a secondary carbon atom and still lower yields are obtained with compounds con taining halogen attached to a tertiary carbon atom. The preferred value of n is 2 or 3. The preferred halogen is chlorine or bromine. In dihaloallganes represented by the above formula, the unsatisfied valence bonds are combined with a member of the group consisting of hydrogen and an alkyl group. p
Dihaloalkanes preferred as starting materials in this process are indicated by the following formula:
in which each of R R R R", R and R represents a member of the group consisting of hydrogen and alkyl radicals, X represents a halogen, and the characters m and n are selected from the members of the group consisting of 0, 1, 2, and 3. The halogens generally preferred are chlorine and bromine. The characters m and n are such that their sum has a value of from 0 to 4 and preferably of 1 or 2. When m and n are zero Formula 2 is of essentially the same form as Formula 1.
A preferred starting material for this process is thus an alpha, omega-dihaloalkane in which a halogen atom, preferably chlorine or bromine, is combined with each of the two end carbon atoms of an alkane chain containing four or five carbon atoms. Such dihaloalkanes include 1,5- dibromo 3,3 dimethylpentane, 1,4 dibromobutane, and 1,5-dichloropentane.
Dihaloalkanes containing a quaternary carbon atom such as 1,5-dichloro-3,3-dimethylpentane and the corresponding dibromoalkane may be formed by condensing a monoolefin and a dihaloalkane in which one of the halogen atoms is attached to a tertiary carbon atom, and the other is attached to a primary carbon atom, said condensation being carried out in the presence of a Friedel-Crafts catalyst at a temperature of from about -40 to about 100 C.
Good yields of such dihaloalkanes are obtained by condensing a monoolefin such as ethylene with a dihaloalkane in which the halogens are combined with one tertiary and one non-tertiary carbon atom. Thus ethylene will condense with isoprene dihydrochloride (more exactly known as 1,3-dichloro-3-methylbutane) in the presence of aluminum chloride and other Friedel-Crafts catalysts to form 1,5-dichloro-3,3dimethylpentane.
Cyclopentadiene is a diolefin which has two hydrogen atoms that are readily replaced by sodium or by another alkali metal to form a sodium addition product of said cyclic diolefin which may be reacted with dihaloalkanes of the type described above to form a spirohydrocarbon. Thus reaction of cyclopentadiene sodium with 1,5-dibromo-3,3-dimethylpentane yields 5,5-(3,3-
The condensation of a cycloalkadiene with an alpha, omega-dihaloalkane having at least four carbon atoms per molecule may be accomplished in several ways. One method consists in adding the diene to a solution of sodium alkoxide in an alcohol such as ethyl alcohol and then adding the dihaloalkane. The addition of the diene to.
the solution of sodium alkoxide is preferably carried out at about 20 to 25 C; Reaction with 1 the dihalide may be carried out at temperatures of about l0 to +100 C., preferablyat about the reflux temperature of the reaction mixture.
