Application of Cinchona Alkaloids in the Rubber Industry d

R . F. A. ALTMAN' AND G. J. VAN DER BIE Rubber Research Institute, Buitenzcorg, Java I n an attempt to find new applications for the cinchona by-product alkaloids which are qbtained in considerable quantities as waste in the quinine industry, the alkaloids originally present in cinchona bark as well as different quinine variants, specially prepared for the purpose, have been tested as vulcanization accelerators and antioxidants for rubber. The results are summarized in tables and graphs. Sofne of the compounds appear to be equal in activity to certain widely used commercial accelerators and antioxidants.

One of the present authors ( I ) , while agreeing with this contention, suggested some alterations in Rabe's specific proposals to bring them into line with international rules for the nomenclature and numbering of organic ring systems (7'). Theoretically speaking, all quinine variants may be considered as derivatives of the following systems, which have been named rubiacine and rubatoxine: H C

NE of the most important problems in cinchona research

has been and still is to find practical and economical uses for the by-products of quinine production-that is, the nonquinine alkaloids of cinchona bark. At a prewar production of half a million kilograms of quinine a year, not less than I61,OOO kg. alkaloids were obtained yearly as a waste product (9) which has, perhaps with the exception of quinidine, far less value than quinine itself. The quantity of these by-products used in drugs constituted only a minute fraction of the quantity produced. Results are described here of a n attempt to apply cinchona alkaloids and some of their derivatives as accelerators and antioxidants for rubber. The idea is not new, as in 1922 Eaton and Bishop ( 4 ) investigated the accelerating activity of a limited number of cinchona products in rubber vulcanization. The literature on the chemical constitution of known accelerators and antioxidants indicated t h a t some of the cinchona alkaloids and certainsof their derivatives would be active accelerators and antioxidants. As will be seen from the experimental section of this paper the alkaloids can be converted relatively easily into derivatives containing groups favorable t o accelerating activity, such as amino groups and dithiocarbamic, thiourea, and thiazole residues.

7. Unlike most of the common vulcanization accelerators, the quinine variants are active without zinc oxide.

*

In brief, the present investigation, although far from exhaustive, is not discouraging but indicates the possibility of developing worth-while accelerators and antioxidants from the by-product cinchona alkaloids. The possibilities of modifying these alkaloids are numerous. Besides the modifications of the quinoline nucleus, the quinuclidine nucleus, and the bridge chain, alone or in combination with one another, the coupling of basic quinine variants with all kinds of acid products, or the' combination of acidic variants with bases, or again, the decomposition of the alkaloids into quinoline and piperidine derivatives, may yield useful accelerators or antioxidants. The authors' colleague, W. B. Deys (s), prepared the sodium, lead, and zinc salts of cinchotoxine dithiocarbamic acid (l-dithiocarbamic acid-3-vinyl-9-hydroxyrubatoxine). The two latter salts (designated by Deys as PbX and ZnX) and also certain alkaloid-Captax double salts (ARB,, ARB2, and ARBB) prepared by one of the present authors (IO)were found to have an accelerating action in rubber vulcanization, and this led to the present more extended investigation. In the following sections the preparation of the quinine variants under investigation is given only when the compound has not been previously described in the literature or when significant improvements were made in procedure or yield. New compounds have been numbered ARI, AR2, AR3, etc.

5'-A~flNOHYDROQUININE (3-ETHYL-9-HYDROXY-5'-AMlNO-6'METHOXYRUBIACINE). Contrary t o the description given by Jacobs and Heidelberger ( B ) , this compound can be easily prepared in the following way: A solution of 37,5 grams of 5'nitrohydroquinine in 50 ml. of hydrochloric acid (density = 1.19) and 200 ml. of water is slowly added to a solution of 125 grams of SnCl2.2Hz0in 300 ml. of hydrochloric acid (d = 1.19), t o which 75 ml. of water had been added after the complete dissolution of the stannous chloride in the strong acid. The temperature is held a t 40" t o 45" C. After the mixture is left for half a n hour, a bright red solution is obtained containing a considerable quantity of the orange-colored double salt of stannous chloride and 5'-aminohydroquinine. The free base is obtained by diluting the mixture with water enough t o dissolve the orange crystals completely, adding an excess of 2570 sodium hydroxide, and filtering off the yellow precipitate. The latter, originally amorphous, turns t o a crystalline product when digested with ether. Recrystallization from dilute alcohol yields yellow needles combined instars. Melting point (m.p.), 223" C.; N: found, 12.3%; calculated for C2~H2~OZN3, 12.32%. AR14 (DOUBLE COMPOUND O F 1 MOLE5'-AMINOHYDROQUININ~ AND 1 MOLE 3-ETHYL9-HYDROXY-5'-DITHIOCARBAMIC ACID-6 METHOXYRUBIACINE). This is easily obtained in quantitative yield by adding an excess of carbon disulfide t o a saturated benzene solution of aminohydroquinine. Almost immediately a voluminous mass separates, apparently consisting of colorless needles which decompose a t 115" C. with evolution of hydrogen sulfide. The compound is very soluble in chloroform, methanol, ethanol, and carbon disulfide; slightly soluble in benzene, acetone, and ethyl acetate; and insoluble in water, ether, and ligroin. ARI4 is cpmpletely soluble in dilute hydrochloric acid with a speci.fic red color indicating the presence of 5'-aminohydroquinine. I n diluted caustic alkali the preparation only partly dissolves; the insoluble part, isolated by means of a n ether extraction, was identified as 5'-aminohydroquinine. Since A R I ~ decomposes a t ordinary temperature it could not be analyzed; its identification follows from the analysis of its decomposition product ARI5. ARlj [SYMMETRICAL BIS(5'-AMINOHYDROQUINYL)THlOUREA]. This compound is obtained in 80% yield by boiling the alcoholic solution of ARI4 under reflux in the presence of carbon disulfide for several hours, until no more hydrogen sulfide is formed. The brown mass thus obtained is evaporated t o dryness and the dark colored residue taken up with dilute hydrochloric acid. From this solution, filtered, if necessary, the base is precipitated with ammonia and extracted with ethyl acetate. Thereupon the solution is dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, boiled for a short time with charcoal, and concentrated t o a small volume. On cooling, ARls separates in rhomboidal leaflets of a light brown color. By recrystallization from dilute alcohol, colorless leaf-

and in a quantitative yield by treating a concentrated benzene solution of quinatoxine with carbon disulfide. The reaction is exothermic. After the mixture is left for some time, a crystalline mass separates. The latter is filtered off, washed with cold benzene, and recrystallized from benzene (m.p., 71 C.). ARio is very soluble in chloroform, methanol, and acetone; dightly soluble in alcohol, benzene, and ethyl acetate; and insoluble in ether ligroin, and water. I n dilute acid the double cpmpound is completely soluble with a pale yellow color; in dilute alkali, however, it dissolves only partly and leaves an oil, which could be extracted with ether and was identified as quinatoxine.
