Notizen zur Synthese sulfonierter Derivate von 5,6,7,8-Tetrahydro-1-naphthylamin und 5,6,7,8-Tetrahydro-2-naphthylamin

Notes on the Synthesis of Sulfonated Derivatives of 5,6,7,8-Tetrahydro-1-naphthylamine and 5,6,7,8-Tetrahydro-2-naphthylamine Sulfonation of 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-naphthylamine ( 1 ) with sulfuric acid gave a mixture of 1-amino-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalene-2-sulfonic acid ( 2 ), 4-amino-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalene-2-sulfonic acid ( 13 ) and 4-amino-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalene-1-sulfonic acid ( 3 ). The same reaction with 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-2-naphthylamine ( 20 ) yielded 3-amino-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalene-2-sulfonic acid ( 21 ); formation of 2-amino-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalene-1-sulfonic acid ( 16 ) or of 3-amino-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalene-1-sulfonic acid ( 24 ) was not observed. Treatment of 4-bromo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-naphthylamine ( 4 ) or of its 4-chloro analogue 5 with amidosulfuric acid gave 1-amino-4-bromo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalene-2-sulfonic acid ( 9 ) and its 4-chloro analogue 10 , respectively, which were dehalogenated to 2 . Preparations of 13 and 24 were achieved by sulfonation of 5-nitro-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene ( 14 ) and 6-nitro-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene ( 22 ) to 4-nitro-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalene-2-sulfonic acid ( 15 ) and 3-nitro-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalene-1-sulfonic acid ( 23 ), respectively, followed by Béchamp reductions. The sulfonic acid 13 was also obtained by hydrogenolysis of 4-amino-1-bromo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalene-2-sulfonic acid ( 11 ) or of its 1-chloro analogue 12 ; compounds 11 and 12 were synthesized from N-(4-bromo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-naphthyl)acetamide ( 7 ) and from its 4-chloro analogue 8 , respectively, by sulfonation with oleum and subsequent hydrolysis. By ‘baking’ the hydrogensulfate salt of 1 or 20 compounds 3 and 21 were obtained, respectively. Synthesis of 16 was achieved by sulfur dioxide treatment of the diazonium chloride derived from 2-nitro-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-naphthylamine ( 17 ) giving 2-nitro-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalene-1-sulfonyl chloride ( 18 ), followed by hydrolysis of 18 to the corresponding sulfonic acid 19 and final reduction.
