  • Patent number: 5696075
    Abstract: Described herein are compounds of the formula ##STR1## wherein R represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl radical and X stands for a --CHO, or a --CN group, are useful as perfuming ingredients for preparing perfuming compositions and a variety of perfumed articles, to which they impart sandalwood-type odor notes, together with marine, ozone type odor characters, such that said compositions and articles thus acquire a "transparent" connotation. The aldehydes of formula (I) are also useful as starting products for the preparation of the corresponding fragrant alcohols and nitriles.

  • Patent number: 5650511
    Abstract: Derivatives of 9-deazaguanine are prepared by reacting an aldehyde or ketone with a dialkylaminomalonate to form the corresponding enamine. The enamine is then reacted with a base to form a cyclic pyrrole. The cyclic pyrrole is reacted with an urea compound to provide a protected guanidino compound. The guanidino is converted to the desired 9-deazaguanine derivative by reacting with trifluoracetic acid or with an alkoxide or hydroxide followed by neutralization with an acid.

  • Patent number: 5332825
    Abstract: This invention relates to two processes for preparing aminoacetonitriles in one vessel under anhydrous conditions. Process I involves the steps of: (A) reacting trimethylsilyl cyanide and an aldehyde in a water miscible amide solvent to obtain a silyl blocked cyanohydrin solution; (B) adding a catalytic amount of water to the silyl blocked cyanohydrin solution from Step (A); and (C) passing ammonia through the solution to obtain an aminoacetonitrile. Process II involves the steps of: (A') reacting trimethylsilyl cyanide with an aldehyde in the absence of solvent to form a silyl blocked cyanohydrin; (B') adding a water miscible amide solvent to the silyl blocked cyanohydrin from Step (A') to obtain a solution; and (C') passing ammonia through the solution to obtain an aminoacetonitrile. Aminoacetonitriles are important intermediates in the preparation of amino acids, thiadiazoles, acylaminoacetonitriles, and imidazole derivatives.

  • Patent number: 5332826
    Abstract: This invention relates to a process for preparing aminoacetonitriles in one vessel. The process involves the steps of: (A) reacting an alkali metal cyanide with an aldehyde in water to form a cyanohydrin; (B) extracting the cyanohydrin formed in Step (A) into a water immiscible solvent to form a two phase system comprising a water immiscible phase containing the cyanohydrin and an aqueous phase; (C) removing at least 50 weight percent, based on the weight of the water immiscible phase, of the water immiscible solvent from the water immiscible phase thereby concentrating the cyanohydrin; (D) adding a water miscible amide solvent to the concentrated cyanohydrin to form a cyanohydrin solution; and (E) passing ammonia through the cyanohydrin solution to obtain an aminoacetonitrile. Aminoacetonitriles are important intermediates in the preparation of amino acids, thiadiazoles, acylaminoacetonitriles, and imidazole derivatives.
