Menthyl Grignard reagent 1 from either menthyl chloride (2) or neomenthyl chloride (3) consists of menthylmagnesium chloride (1a), neomenthylmagnesium chloride (1b), trans-p-menthane (4), 2-menthene (8), 3-menthene (9), and Wurtz coupling products including symmetrical bimenthyl 13. The diastereomeric ratio 1a/1b was determined in situ by 13C NMR or after D2O quenching by 2H NMR analysis. Hydrolysis of the C-Mg bond proceeds with retention of configuration at C-1. The kinetic ratio 1a/1b from Grignard reagent generation (dr 59:41 at 50 °C in THF) is close to the thermodynamic ratio (56:44 at 50 °C in THF). Carboxylation of 1 at -78 °C separates diastereomers 1a/b to give the anion of menthanecarboxylic acid (19) from 1a, which combines with unreactive 1b to give neomenthylmagnesium menthanecarboxylate (1bI). The kinetics of epimerization for the menthyl/neomenthylmagnesium system was analyzed (ΔH? = 98.5 kJ/mol, ΔS? = -113 J/mol·K for 1bI → 1aI). Reactions of 1 with phosphorus electrophiles proceed stereoconvergently at C-1 of 1a/b to give predominantly menthyl-configured substitution products: PCl3 and 2 equiv of 1 give Men2PCl (6), which hydrolyzes to dimenthylphosphine P-oxide (7), whereas Ph2PCl with 1 equiv of 1 gave P-menthyldiphenylphosphine oxide (27) after workup in air.

Paragraph 0038; 0040, (2018/12/13)
The present invention pertains generally to the field of coolants and medical therapy. More particularly, the present invention relates to certain anti-nociceptive agents, such as [((1R,2S,5f?)-2-isopropyl-5-methyl-cyclohexanecarbonyl)-amino]-acetic acid isopropyl ester, that are potent and long-acting and selectively cooling for non-keratinized epithelial tissues as compared to keratinized epithelial tissues, and are useful, for example, for the treatment of (e.g., the alleviation of symptoms of; the amelioration of) sensory discomfort of non-keratinized stratified epithelial (NKSE) tissue; and so for treatment of: sensory discomfort of an ocular surface, an eyelid, a margin of an eyelid, an anterior part of an eyeball, a conjunctiva, a lachrymal system, a pre-corneal film, or a cornea, a lining of the oral cavity, an internal portion of the lips, a pharyngeal surface, an esophageal surface, or an anogenital surface; eye discomfort, e.g., caused by extended wear of contact lenses, by eye strain and/or fatigue, by air pollutants, by excessive exposure to the sun, by conjunctivitis, by dry eye syndrome; sensory discomfort associated with oral mucositis; airway (e.g., larynx, trachea, and/or bronchi) tightness, discomfort in the airways (e.g., larynx, trachea, and/or bronchi), choking, cough, and/or dyspnea, e.g., associated with asthma and/or chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD).
Process for making neo-enriched p-menthane compounds
-
Page/Page column 12, (2012/05/20)
A process for making neo-enriched p-menthane intermediates is disclosed. Lewis acid-catalyzed rearrangement of an oxaspiro compound provides an aldehyde mixture comprising normal (II) and neo (III) p-menthane-3-aldehydes: with the neo aldehyde (III) as the major product. The aldehyde mixture is readily oxidized to provide the corresponding carboxylic acids, and the acids are easily converted to a host of neo-enriched p-menthane esters or amides. The esters and amides are valuable as physiological coolants.
