CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION 
     This non-provisional application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §119(a) on Patent Application No. 2009-156463 filed in Japan on Jul. 1, 2009, the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference. 
     TECHNICAL FIELD 
     This invention relates to a melamine-functional organosilicon compound and a method for preparing the same. More particularly, it relates to a multi-functional silyl compound having a melamine skeleton in the molecule which has high water solubility and is able to form a film upon hydrolytic condensation because of the melamine skeleton combined with the siloxane structure. 
     BACKGROUND ART 
     One typical group of organosilicon compounds is silane coupling agents. The silane coupling agents have two or more different functional radicals in their molecule, and serve as a chemical bridge to bond an organic material and an inorganic material that would otherwise be difficult to bond. In the silane coupling agent, one functional radical is a hydrolyzable silyl radical which forms a silanol radical in the presence of water. This silanol radical, in turn, reacts with a hydroxyl radical on the surface of inorganic material to form a chemical bond to the inorganic material surface. The other functional radicals include vinyl, epoxy, amino, (meth)acrylic, mercapto and similar radicals which form a chemical bond with organic materials such as various synthetic resins, as well as ureido, isocyanurate and other polar radicals which do not form a chemical bond, but hydrogen bond or otherwise interact due to their polarity. By virtue of these attributes, the silane coupling agents are widely used as modifiers, adhesive aids, and various other additives in organic and inorganic resins. 
     Among others, those silane coupling agents having non-bonding functional radicals such as ureido and isocyanurate are used as resin modifiers and paint additives. Generally isocyanurate silane coupling agents are advantageous in that their hydrolytic condensates have a film forming ability since they are of tris(silyl) type, and that they are compatible with resins because of inclusion of polar radicals. However, these silane coupling agents find limited use in aqueous applications because of a lack of water solubility. 
     Heterocyclic structures similar to isocyanurate include triazine structures. Mono(silyl) silane coupling agents having triazine structure are disclosed in JP-A 2006-213677 and JP-A 2007-131556. These patent documents relate to only organosilicon compounds of triazine structure having a thiol radical(s) introduced therein. With such teaching, a melamine skeleton as disclosed herein cannot be formed. On account of the thiol radical being introduced, a tris(silyl) structure as disclosed herein cannot be formed. 
     JP-A H07-026242 discloses an adhesive composition comprising a silicone-modified melamine resin. Since a melamine resin derivative is tied with silicone by condensation of hydroxyl with silanol, undesirably the modified resin is prone to untying in the presence of water or alcohol. Silane coupling agents are nowhere described. JP-A H11-100237 discloses a composition for use as a glass fiber sizing agent, comprising a melamine resin and a reactive silane coupling agent. Since this material is a blend of components, it is impossible to isolate the material as a compound and identify the structure thereof.

Method
 
     The organosilicon compound of the invention may be prepared by reacting cyanuric chloride with a primary and/or secondary amine compound and neutralizing the reaction product with a base. The primary and/or secondary amine compound used herein contains, as an essential component, an organosilicon compound having both a primary and/or secondary amino radical and a hydrolyzable silyl radical, represented by the following general formula (3): 
                                
wherein X, R 1 , R 2 , R 3  and n are as defined above. To distinguish the organosilicon compound of the invention and the starting organosilicon compound containing a primary and/or secondary amino radical and a hydrolyzable silyl radical, the former is referred to as the target organosilicon compound and the latter is referred to as the organosilicon reactant, hereinafter.
 
     The essential reactants used in the reaction are cyanuric chloride and an organosilicon reactant having both a primary and/or secondary amino radical and a hydrolyzable silyl radical. Besides, reactants having a primary and/or secondary amino radical such as hydrocarbons having a primary and/or secondary amino radical and polysiloxanes having a primary and/or secondary amino radical may be used along with the essential reactants, and then the target organosilicon compound having a melamine skeleton in the molecule can still be prepared. 
     Non-limiting examples of the primary and/or secondary amine compound include organosilicon compounds having both a primary and/or secondary amino radical and a hydrolyzable silyl radical such as α-aminomethyltrimethoxysilane, α-aminomethylmethyldimethoxysilane, α-aminomethyldimethylmethoxysilane, α-aminomethyltriethoxysilane, α-aminomethylmethyldiethoxysilane, α-aminomethyldimethylethoxysilane, γ-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, γ-aminopropylmethyldimethoxysilane, γ-aminopropyldimethylmethoxysilane, γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, γ-aminopropylmethyldiethoxysilane, γ-aminopropyldimethylethoxysilane, N-(2-aminoethyl)-α-aminomethyltrimethoxysilane, N-(2-aminoethyl)-α-aminomethylmethyldimethoxysilane, N-(2-aminoethyl)-α-aminomethyldimethylmethoxysilane, N-(2-aminoethyl)-α-aminomethyltriethoxysilane, N-(2-aminoethyl)-α-aminomethylmethyldiethoxysilane, N-(2-aminoethyl)-α-aminomethyldimethylethoxysilane, N-(2-aminoethyl)-γ-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, N-(2-aminoethyl)-γ-aminopropylmethyldimethoxysilane, N-(2-aminoethyl)-γ-aminopropyldimethylmethoxysilane, N-(2-aminoethyl)-γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, N-(2-aminoethyl)-γ-aminopropylmethyldiethoxysilane, N-(2-aminoethyl)-γ-aminopropyldimethylethoxysilane, bis(trimethoxysilylpropyl)amine, bis(methyldimethoxysilylpropyl)amine, bis(dimethylmethoxysilylpropyl)amine, bis(triethoxysilylpropyl)amine, bis(methyldiethoxysilylpropyl)amine, bis(dimethylethoxysilylpropyl)amine, N-phenyl-γ-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, N-phenyl-γ-aminopropylmethyldimethoxysilane, N-phenyl-γ-aminopropyldimethylmethoxysilane, N-phenyl-γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, N-phenyl-γ-aminopropylmethyldiethoxysilane, N-phenyl-γ-aminopropyldimethylethoxysilane, N-phenyl-α-aminomethyltrimethoxysilane, N-phenyl-α-aminomethylmethyldimethoxysilane, N-phenyl-α-aminomethyldimethylmethoxysilane, N-phenyl-α-aminomethyltriethoxysilane, N-phenyl-α-aminomethylmethyldiethoxysilane, and N-phenyl-α-aminomethyldimethylethoxysilane; and organosilicon compounds having a primary and/or secondary amino radical such as similar alkoxysilane oligomers having a primary and/or secondary amino radical. 
     In the production of the target organosilicon compound, cyanuric chloride and the organosilicon reactant having both a primary and/or secondary amino radical and a hydrolyzable silyl radical may be combined at any desired ratio. It is preferred from the aspects of reactivity and productivity to use 4 to 20 moles and more preferably 4.5 to 10 moles of the organosilicon reactant per mole of cyanuric chloride. This is true particularly when a tris(trialkoxysilyl) melamine compound is to be produced. If the amount of the organosilicon reactant is too small, hydrogen chloride generated during the reaction may form a salt with an amino radical to detract from the reactivity, resulting in a decline of productivity. Besides the unreacted reactants may be entrained as impurities to reduce the purity of the tris(trialkoxysilyl) compound. Too much amounts of the organosilicon reactant may simply add to the cost of production because the reaction may be saturated. 
     When another reactant having a primary and/or secondary amino radical is used in the reaction with cyanuric chloride, the total amount of the organosilicon reactant having both a primary and/or secondary amino radical and a hydrolyzable silyl radical and the other reactant having a primary and/or secondary amino radical is preferably 4 to 20 moles and more preferably 4.5 to 10 moles per mole of cyanuric chloride. The organosilicon reactant is preferably blended with the other reactant in such a molar ratio as to meet 0&lt;(other reactant)/(organosilicon reactant)≦2 and more preferably 0.5≦(other reactant)/(organosilicon reactant)≦2. 
     A solvent may be used in the production of the target organosilicon compound, if desired. The solvent used is not particularly limited as long as it is nonreactive with the reactants, cyanuric chloride and primary and/or secondary amine compounds. Examples include aliphatic hydrocarbon solvents such as pentane, hexane, heptane and decane, ether solvents such as diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran and 1,4-dioxane, and aromatic hydrocarbon solvents such as benzene, toluene and xylene. 
     The reaction to produce the target organosilicon compound is exothermic. Since side reactions can occur at unnecessarily high temperatures, the reaction temperature is preferably controlled in a range of 25° C. to 150° C., more preferably 35° C. to 120° C., and most preferably 50° C. to 120° C. Below 25° C., the reaction rate may be retarded to invite a decline of productivity and side reactions may concomitantly occur to reduce the purity. A temperature of higher than 150° C. may cause pyrolysis, leading to a low purity. 
     The reaction time required to produce the target organosilicon compound is not particularly limited as long as the above-mentioned temperature management during exothermic reaction is possible and the exothermic reaction is brought to completion. The reaction time is preferably about 10 minutes to about 24 hours and more preferably about 1 hour to about 20 hours. 
     The method for the production of the target organosilicon compound should involve a neutralization step after the reaction since hydrochloric acid generates during the reaction. The base used for neutralization is not particularly limited as long as it forms with hydrogen chloride a salt in insoluble solid or liquid form which can be separated. Suitable bases include trialkylamines, ethylenediamine, urea, metal alkoxides and the like. Of these, ethylenediamine is preferred because it effectively forms a hydrochloride salt in liquid form which can be readily separated. 
     In the production of the target organosilicon compound, the amount of the base added for neutralization is 1 to 3 moles, and preferably 1.2 to 2 moles per mole of hydrogen chloride generated on a stoichiometric basis. If the amount of the base added is too small, only a fraction of hydrochloric acid may be trapped, resulting in the target compound having an increased chloride ion content. Too much amounts of the base may simply add to the cost of production because the neutralization reaction is saturated. 
     The temperature of the neutralization step is preferably controlled in a range of 25° C. to 150° C., more preferably 35° C. to 120° C., and most preferably 50° C. to 120° C. Below 25° C., the reaction rate may be retarded, resulting in a decline of productivity. A temperature of higher than 150° C. may cause pyrolysis, leading to a low purity. The neutralization time is preferably about 10 minutes to about 24 hours and more preferably about 1 hour to about 20 hours.
