Description: CARBONYL CONTAINING COMPOUNDS AND THEIR DERIVATIVES AS MULTI-FUNCTIONAL FUEL AND LUBE ADDITIVES FIELD OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to carbonyl containing compounds and their derivatives as additives useful in oleaginous compositions such as fuels, lubricants, power transmission fluids, and the like. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Oleaginous substances have found wide industrial use. Unfortunately, many oleaginous compositions contain additives which contain chlorine which is environmentally undesirable. Also, many of today's high performance applications for oleaginous compositions require multifunctional additives. Organic compounds containing two or more carbonyl groups in a row are generally referred to as vicinal polycarbonyl (VP) monomers. The reactions of VP monomers with unsaturated hydrocarbons, including unsaturated hydrocarbon polymers, will produce carbonyl containing adducts as disclosed in US-A-5057564 and USSN 935604. These adducts are referred to herein as ene adducts. More recently, various hydrocarbons, and especially saturated hydrocarbons, and saturated hydrocarbon polymers, have been found to react with VP monomers in the presence of a free radical initiator. These compounds are disclosed, for example, in US-A-5288811 and 5274051, and are referred to herein as radical adducts. The present invention provides improved oleaginous compositions such as fuels, lube oils, and the like, by incorporating into these compositions additives selected from ene adducts, radical adducts, derivatives of said adducts, and mixtures thereof. These adducts are chlorine-free, and the adducts and derivatives thereof have multi-functional properties. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an adduct of a hydrocarbon and a vicinal polycarbonyl compound, the adduct having a value of n greater than 1, wherein n is the average number of vicinal polycarbonyl compounds incorporated per adduct chain. The hydrocarbon is typically a saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbon or hydrocarbon polymer with an M n value ranging from about 200 to about 10 million. The hydrocarbon optionally contains polar substituents. The VP compound (alternatively referred to herein as "VP monomer") is cyclic or acyclic. The adduct is an ene adduct or a radical adduct. The adduct can be further reacted with a reagent to obtain a product, wherein the reagent is selected from the group consisting of nucleophiles, electrophiles, metal salts and metal complexes. The reagent can be selected from (i) nucleophiles selected from the group consisting of amines, hydrazines, hydrazine derivatives, alcohols, water, polyamines, polyols, amino alcohols, amino thiols; (ii) electrophiles selected from the group consisting of carboxy anhydrides, carboxy esters, borate esters, phosphite and phosphate esters; (iii) metal salts containing metal ions selected from the group consisting of alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, and transition metals and (iv) metal complexes containing metal ions selected from the group consisting of alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, and transition metals. The product obtained from the above-described adduct can be post-treated with an electrophilic reagent such as a borating, acylating or thio acid reagent, or a metal ion, to obtain a post-product. The present invention further relates to oleaginous compositions comprising a major amount of an oleaginous substance selected from fuels and oils and a minor amount of the product, the post-product or the adduct per se with n>l, as described above. The present invention also includes oleaginous compositions comprising a major amount of an oleaginous substance selected from fuels and oils and a minor amount of an adduct having n=l, the adduct optionally reacted with a reagent selected from nucleophiles, electrophiles, metal salts and metal complexes. GENERAL DESCRIPTION The present invention is concerned with compounds consisting of (a) ene and radical adducts having one or more VP monomers per adduct, (b) products derived from said ene and radical adducts, and (c) post-products derived from said products, which are useful in oleaginous compositions, especially as multifunctional additives, dispersants, and dispersant viscosity modifiers. The adducts are prepared via the ene and radical addition of VP monomers to unsaturated and saturated hydrocarbons and polymers respectively, with M n values ranging from about 200 to about 10 million. The hydrocarbon and polymer reactants may contain one or more polar substituents, provided that the polar substituents are compatible with the ene and radical chemistry involved in the functionalization with VP monomers. The adducts can be further reacted with a variety of nucleophiles, electrophiles, and metal ions to form products which in turn can be reacted with borating reagents, thio acids, and metal ions to form post-products. Oleaginous compositions containing the adducts, products, and post-products are encompassed within this invention. Oleaginous substances include fuels, oils, and other lubricants such as greases. Ene Adducts The ene adducts, la, 2a, and 3a, of the instant invention are produced by reacting one or more cyclic or acyclic VP monomers, 1, 2, and 3, respectively, with an unsaturated hydrocarbon or unsaturated polymer according to the following equations: HI (1a] wherein R a , Rtø, R ς R^, and R g are independently selected from the group consisting of: H, alkyl groups having about 1 to about a million carbon atoms; alkenyl groups having about 3 to about a million carbon atoms; substituted alkyl and alkenyl groups having one or more substituents selected from the groups consisting of HO(CH2CH2θ) x where x is an integer ranging from 1 to about 10; ORf, COORf wherein Rf is independently selected from the group consisting of: H, alkyl radicals having about 1 to about 18 carbon atoms; aryl and substituted aryl groups; C(=O)Rg, OC(=O)Rg, wherein Rg is selected independently from the group consisting of alkyl radicals having 1 to about 18 carbon atoms, aryl radicals, and substituted aryl radicals; CN; heteroaryl radicals (R^) wherein R^ is independently selected from the group consisting of radicals of 5 or 6 membered heterocyclic and fused heterocyclic rings which are derived from fiiran, thiophene, imidazole, triazole, oxazole, thiazole, thiadiazole, indole, benzofuran, benzimidazole, benzoxazole, benzotriazole, benzothiazole, purine, xanthine, pyridine, pyrimidine, pyrazine, triazine, quinoline, isoquinoline, phthalazine, quinazoline, quinoxaline, and phenanthroline; aryl, and ethylenically unsaturated groups; q is selected from the group consisting of H2O, and alcohols, especially MeOH, EtOH, and n-BuOH; i is a numerical value ranging from 0 and a number greater than zero; U, V and W are independently selected from the group consisting of C=O, C=NRf, NRf, O, S, CHR g , C(R g >2 and CHCHOHCH 2 OH; and in which U and V may be dependently selected so that U+V=l,2-phenylene, naphthalene- 1,2-diyl, and l,2-dihydroxy-ethylene-l,2-diyl; and wherein A and B are independently selected from ORf, N(Rg)2, COORf, and C(=O)Rg wherein Rf and Rg are as defined above. Typical cyclic VP monomers include alloxan (AX), 1,3-dimethyl-alloxan, indan-l,2,3-trione (IT), naphthalene-l,2,3,4-tetrone, cyclopentane-l,2,3-trione, cyclohexane-l,2,3-trione, furan-2,3,4-trione, benzopyran-2,3,4-trione, benzothiopyran-2,3,4-trione, quinoline-2,3,4-trione, rhodizonic acid, croconic acid, triquinoyl, leuconic acid, isopropylidene ketomalonate, dehydroascorbic acid, and their hydrates, alcoholates and solvates. Useful derivatives of indantrione include 5- methoxy-, 5-methylthio-, 5-dimethylamino-, and 5-phenyl-indantrione; 4-aza- indantrione, thieno[f]indantrione, benzo[f]indantrione, and their hydrates. Typical acyclic VP monomers include ketomalonic acid; amides, and esters of ketomalonic acid including alkyl and aryl esters such as diethyl ketomalonate (KM); diketosuccinic acid; alpha, beta-diketo acids and their ester and amide derivatives; polyketone monomers such as dimethyl, diphenyl, di-tolyl, and di- mesityl tri-ketones and tetra-ketones. Depending on reaction conditions, but primarily on reactant ratios, more than one VP monomer selected from 1, 2, and 3, may be appended to ene-reactive sites present in the previously described unsaturated hydrocarbons and polymers to afford ly, 2y and 3y (shown below) wherein Ry is the radical corresponding to the unsaturated hydrocarbyl group, and U, V, W, A and B are as previously defined; and n is a numerical value ranging from 1 to about twenty, and even greater depending on the level of unsaturation and the M n of the hydrocarbon or polymer. [ly] [2y] [3y] Mixtures of ene adducts of mono-unsaturated polymers wherein n averages from about 1.2 to about 1.8, are useful multi-functional additives per se, as well as invaluable precursors to highly potent dispersants with outstanding high and low temperature viscometrics. A plurality of VP monomers can be ene-added to poly-unsaturated substrates, such as dienes, trienes, and polyenes, as well as polymers with multiple double bonds such as polybutadiene, polyisoprene, and terpolymers such as ethylene propylene terpolymers containing about 5 to about 10 wt.% of termonomers such as 5-ethylidene-2-norbornene (ENB). Unsaturated Substrates In general, the olefinic hydrocarbons and polymers with which the VP monomers of the present invention are to be reacted are well known in the art. These oil soluble olefinic compounds comprise substantially saturated hydrocarbon backbones, yet they have a minor amount of ethylenic unsaturation which is available for adduct formation by means of the thermal ene addition process. Olefins which form useful ene adducts with VP monomers will typically be long chain, straight, and/or branched alkenes consisting of about 10 or more carbon atoms, so as to provide suitable oil solubility. Useful alkenes include Cj2 to C30 olefins, such as dodecene-1, 2-propylnonene-l, 2-hexyloctene-l, pentadecene-1, octadecene-1, octadecene-9, docosene-1, and pentatriacontene-17; and diolefins such as hexadecadiene-1,15, eicosadiene-1,19, 2,19-dimethyl-eicosadiene-l,19, and octahydrosqualene. Oligomers of C3 to Cj2 olefins, preferably of C3 to Cg olefins, both alpha-olefins and internal olefins are also useful. These preferably include from 2 to 8 repeating units, as typified by pentaisobutylene and octapropylene, and trimers of alpha-olefins such as 1-decene. Other useful unsaturated substrates can incorporate one or more polar groups. In this instance, the optimal number and type of polar groups attached to the alkene depends upon the oil solubility of the adducts with VP monomers, as well as their effectiveness as additives. Useful olefins containing one or more polar groups include unsaturated alcohols such as 7-dodecen-l-ol, oleyl alcohol and cholesterol; ethers; carboxylic acids, esters and amides such as undecenylic acid, 2- dodecenyl succinic acid, N-methyl-2-dodecenyl-succinimide, and N-ethyl-2- octadecenylsuccinimide; sulfides, sulfur oxygen and phosphorus compounds; alkene-substituted aromatics, and hetero aromatics. An especially useful group of unsaturated reagents amenable to the ene process of the present invention is cited in "McCutcheon's Emulsifiers and Detergents", 1986 North American Edition, McCutcheon Division, MC Publishing Co., Glen Rock, New Jersey. A variety of unsaturated anionic, nonionic, cationic, and amphotheric emulsifiers and detergents having a range of HLB values from 0.8 to about 42.0 can be functionalized with the ene reactive VP monomers of the present invention to produce useful additives for fuels and lubes. Oil soluble olefinic polymers which form useful ene adducts will generally have a number average molecular weight (M n ) of about 500 to about 20K when the ene adducts are used for dispersant and detergent applications, and from about 10K to about one million, and most generally from about 20K to about 200K for dispersant-viscosity improver applications. Preferred V.I. improver polymers will generally have a narrow range of molecular weight, as determined by the ratio of weight average molecular weight (M w ) to number average molecular weight (M n ). Polymers having a M w /M n of less than about 10, for example from about 1 to about 4 are most desirable. The olefinic polymers useful in this invention may be essentially amorphous in character, including those with up to about 25 percent by weight of crystalline segments as determined by x-ray or differential scanning calorimetry. Additionally, the polymers may be of any of the tapered or block copolymers known in the prior art or the copolymers of alpha-olefins comprised of chains of intra-molecularly heterogenous and inter-molecularly homogenous monomer units, such as those prepared by the process of US-A-4540753. Suitable hydrocarbon polymers include homopolymers and copolymers of one or more monomers of C2 to C30, e.g., C2 to Cg olefins, including both alpha- olefins and internal olefins, which may be straight or branched, aliphatic, aromatic, alkylaromatic, and cycloaliphatic. In one preferred embodiment, these will be polymers of ethylene with C3 to C30 olefins, preferably copolymers of ethylene and propylene, and more preferably, copolymers of ethylene and butene. Examples of polymers of other olefins include polymers of ethylene or polymers of propylene which contain nonconjugated diolefins, such as 1,4-hexadiene. Also included are polymers of butene, isobutylene, polymers and copolymers of CQ and higher alpha- olefins, particularly useful examples being polybutenes, polyisobutylenes, copolymers of propylene and isobutylene, copolymers of isobutylene and butadiene, and the like. Other suitable hydrocarbon polymers containing olefinic unsaturation well known in the art include hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated homopolymers, and random, tapered or block polymers (copolymers, including terpolymers and tetrapolymers) of conjugated dienes and/or monovinyl aromatic compounds with, optionally, alpha-olefins or lower alkenes e.g., C3 to Cjg alpha-olefins or lower alkenes. The conjugated dienes include isoprene, butadiene, 2,3-dimethylbutadiene, piperylene and/or mixtures thereof. The monovinyl aromatic compounds are preferably monovinyl monoaromatic compounds, such as styrene or alkylated styrenes substituted at the alpha-carbon atoms of the styrene, such as alpha- methylstyrene, or at ring carbons, such as methylstyrene, ethylstyrene, propyl- styrene, isopropyl-styrene, butyl-styrene, isobutylstyrene, and tert-butylstyrene. The present invention also includes star polymers as disclosed in patents such as US-A-3711406, 4108945, 4116917, 5049294 and 5070131. The term copolymer as used herein, unless otherwise indicated, is thus meant to include terpolymers, and tetrapolymers of ethylene, C3 to C28 alpha- olefins, non-conjugated diolefins, and mixtures of such diolefins, and of isobutylene with C4 to Cjg non-conjugated diolefins, and mixtures of such diolefins. The amount of non-conjugated diolefin will generally range from about 0.5 to 20 wt percent, and preferably from about 1 to about 10 wt percent, based on the total amount of ethylene and alpha-olefin present. Representative examples of non-conjugated dienes that may be used in forming adducts targeted for use as dispersant viscosity modifiers (VM's), include acyclic dienes such as 1,4-hexadiene; alicyclic dienes such as 1,4-cyclo-hexadiene, 4-vinylcyclohexene and 4-allylcyclohexene; and alicyclic fused and bridged ring dienes such as tetrahydroindene, dicyclo-pentadiene, bicyclo[2.2.1]hepta-2,5-diene, 5-methylene-6-methyl-2-norbornene, 5-propenyl-2-norbornene, 5-(l- cyclopentenyl)-2-norbornene, and most preferably, 5-ethylidene-2-norbornene. Polymers derived from butadiene and isoprene, such as polybutadiene and polyisoprene, having M n ranging from about 50K to about 10 million, including natural rubber, are also useful. Ene Adduct Formation The ene adducts of the present invention can be prepared by various processes in which the unsaturated hydrocarbon or polymer and the VP monomers are intimately intermixed and reacted at a temperature at which thermal ene addition occurs without appreciable decomposition. Generally, reaction temperatures within the range of from about 20°C to about 200°C are useful. The reaction temperature will vary depending upon the particular unsaturated hydrocarbon or polymer and VP monomer that are employed. Effective mixing of the olefinic polymer and the VP monomer can be achieved by combining these reactants together with a solvent or neat. The ene adducts can be prepared in solution, in which case the unsaturated hydrocarbon or polymer substrate is dissolved in a solvent such as toluene, xylene, synthetic oil, mineral oil or other suitable solvents, and mixtures thereof, and the VP monomer is added as is, or as a solution, to the dissolved hydrocarbon. The mixture can then be reacted at temperatures of about 50°C to about 200°C for several hours (reaction is monitored by IR analysis) in the substantial absence of air, preferably under a blanket of inert gas, such as nitrogen until ene adduction is complete. Optionally, a trace of an antioxidant such as BHT (butylated hydroxy toluene) can be used. Typically, the ene adducts are separated from the reaction mixture by stripping off the solvent, and further diluted with appropriate lubricating oil packages for desired intermediate or end use purposes. Ene and radical adducts formed in mineral or synthetic oils can be used directly in product forming reactions, or a specific ene use. The proportions of the reactants vary according to the particular olefinic hydrocarbon employed, but normally will range between about 0.01 and 3, and preferably between about 0.1 and 2 moles of the VP monomer per mole of ethylenic unsaturation in the polymer. The degree of ethylenic unsaturation of the polymer is measured by several methods which are known to those of ordinary skill in this art, including nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), calibrated infrared spectroscopy, refractive index comparisons (particularly for ethylene-propylene-norboraene terpolymers), and calibrated iodine titration measurements. The polyfunctional adducts with n ranging from about 1.1 to about 1.8 (average number of functional groups per chain) prepared from mono-unsaturated polymers afford highly useful additives and additive precursors, owing to their outstanding V.I. properties. Usually, n will be dictated by the number of C=C bonds present in the unsaturated reactant and the reactant ratio. Thus, a high VP monomer/olefin ratio usually affords high n values owing to multiple ene reactions on each reactive olefinic site. With terpolymers containing about 20-40 olefinic sites, n values of about 20-40 or greater can be obtained. When the mixture of hydrocarbon and VP monomer has sufficiently low melt viscosity for effective mixing, they may be reacted without a solvent in a stirred mixer or in a masticator. In a typical stirred mixer experiment, a neat polyolefin such as ethylene butene- 1 copolymer (M n of approximately 2K, and about 55 wt% ethylene), and an equimolar amount of VP monomer, such as IT or AX, are combined in a nitrogen-purged reactor and stirred at about 160°C for about 6 hours, or until infrared analysis indicates complete reaction. Ene adduct formation is usually quick and quantitative, and multiple ene adductions can be achieved by using an excess of the VP monomer. Radical Adducts The radical adducts of the present invention are prepared by reacting a cyclic or acyclic VP monomer with a hydrocarbon or polymer in the presence of a free radical initiator according to the equation: wherein 1, 2 and 3 were previously described, and lb and 2b represent cyclic radical adducts, and 3b represents an acyclic radical adduct. R z represents the hydrocarbyl radical derived from the hydrocarbons and polymers described below; "I" represents the free radical initiator; and n is a numerical value ranging from about one to about 20 and even greater with polymers having higher M n values exceeding 50K; q and i are defined above. Useful free radical initiators, I, essential to the formation of the radical adducts of this invention include dialkyl peroxides such as di-tertiary-butyl peroxide, 2,5-dimethyl-2,5-di-tertiary-butyl-peroxy-hexane, di-cumyl peroxide; alkyl peroxides such as tertiary-butyl hydroperoxide, tertiary-octyl hydroperoxide, cumene hydroperoxide; aroyl peroxides such as benzoyl peroxide; peroxyl esters such as tertiary-butyl peroxypivalate, tertiary-butyl perbenzoate; and azo compounds such as azo-bis-isobutyronitrile. Any free radical initiator with a suitable half life at the reaction temperatures between about 80°C and 200°C can be used, as well as ionizing radiation. The radical-initiated reaction of VP monomers can be applied to a wide spectrum of hydrocarbons (R Z H) selected from the group consisting of (a) normal alkanes such as decane, hexadecane, octadecane, tricosane, and paraffins having about 10 to about 40 carbons; branched alkanes such as trimethyldecane, tetramethylpentadecane (pristane); squalane, white oils, Nujols, mineral oils, hydrogenated oligomers and co-oligomers of ethylene, propylene, butylene and higher molecular weight olefin oligomers having 10 to about 40 carbons; (b) substituted hydrocarbons consisting of normal and branched alkanes with about 10 to about 40 carbons may feature one or more functional groups such as ORf, O(CH2CH2θ) x H wherein x is an integer ranging from about 1-10; CN, COORf, C(=O)Rg, aryl, and ethylenically unsaturated groups; useful substituted hydrocarbons comprise decanol, octadecanol, ethoxylated octadecanol, stearic acid, ethyl stearate, methyl decyl ketone, tetrapropylbenzene, and polyesters; (c) polymers derived from one or more of the following monomers: ethylene, propylene, butenes, higher alpha-olefins, styrene, allyl esters, vinyl esters such as vinyl acetate, acrylic acid, acrylonitrile, and the like. Polymers can be linear or branched, with M n values ranging from about 500 to about 10 million. Homo¬ polymers of ethylene such as high and low density polyethylene, atactic or crystalline polypropylene, polybutene, polyisobutylene, homopolymers and copolymers of higher alpha-olefins, copolymers of ethylene with propylene, EPR, which may also contain unconjugated dienes (EPDM), copolymers of ethylene with butenes or higher alpha-olefins, copolymers of propylene with butenes, and higher alpha-olefins. When dienes such as butadiene and isoprene are used in copolymer formation, the resulting polymers are preferably hydrogenated to saturate substantially all of the ethylenic unsaturation. Useful polymers include hydrogenated poly-alpha-olefins, styrene butadiene and/or isoprene block, and tapered copolymers; hydrogenated styrene isoprene block, and hydrogenated star branched polyisoprene polymers. Since polymers containing excess ethylenic unsaturation are prone to crosslinking reactions during radical grafting, polymers containing, only residual levels of ethylenic unsaturation are preferred. The polymers described above for ene adductions leading to la, 2a, and 3a are useful, per se; however, the hydrogenated versions of these polymers, are most preferred. Radical Adduct Formation The radical-induced reactions of VP monomers with hydrocarbon and/or polymer substrates can occur in the neat state, in a melt, or in solution; bulk modifications can be effected in polymer processing equipment such as a rubber mill, an extruder, and a Brabender or Banbury mixer. Radical grafting of high molecular weight polymers may also be conducted without a solvent, as in a melt, and is a preferred route to multifunctional viscosity improvers (MFVI). Polymer processing equipment such as a rubber mill, an extruder, a Banbury mixer, Brabender mixer, and the like are used. Reaction temperatures ranging from about 90°C to about 220°C, and reaction times ranging from about 1 minute to about 1 hour are employed. Reaction times will vary with the nature and amount of polymer, the VP monomer, the reactant ratio and melt reaction conditions, and accordingly, IR analysis for example, is used to ascertain complete reaction. Typically, when grafting in solution, the polymer is dissolved in a suitable solvent, such as chlorobenzene, dichlorobenzene, or mineral oil, and heated to temperatures ranging from about 90°C to about 180°C depending upon the radical initiator used. The VP monomer is added and heated for a suitable period to free any radical-reactive carbonyl groups which may be tied up as a hydrate, alcoholate, or polar solvate. At this point, the radical initiator is added in one dose, or dropwise over a suitable time span, usually from about 5 to 60 minutes. Another option is to add a mixture of compatible monomer and peroxide in a suitable solvent to the hydrocarbon or polymer solution at an addition rate and suitable reaction temperature consistent with the half life of the radical initiator. The reaction mixture is heated, with stirring, until visual color changes, infrared analysis, and/or NMR analysis indicate that the radical addition of the VP monomer to the hydrocarbon is complete. In the case of purple-colored IT, the visible color change from lavender to amber that occurs during radical grafting, provide a convenient method for monitoring the reaction. Depending on the temperature and concentration, reaction times of about 0.05 to about 12 hours are usually sufficient to achieve high conversions to the radical adducts. In general, the amount of VP monomer employed is dictated by the level of functionality desired in radical adducts while still maintaining sufficient oil solubility. Levels of radical grafting onto hydrocarbons and polymers ranging from about 1 to 2 VP monomers per each hydrocarbon chain or a polymer chain segment containing about 20 to about 200 carbons, are useful. Functionality levels leading to desirable chain extension are preferred when designing dispersants and multifunctional additives. The amount of free radical initiator used is generally between 1 and 100 wt % based on the weight of VP monomer, and often depends upon the nature of the free radical initiator, and hydrocarbon or polymer substrate being grafted. The susceptibility of certain polymers to undergo crosslinking and/or chain scission necessitates careful discretion regarding reagent concentrations, time, temperature, and process conditions since these parameters are all dependent variables in the grafting process. Products The ene and radical adducts identified by lc, 2c and 3 c are highly versatile precursors to new and useful products. Thus, one or more ene and radical adducts can be reacted with a wide assortment of nucleophiles, electrophiles, and metal salts to produce a highly useful array of products: Id, 2d, and 3d, as illustrated below: wherein R; is selected from the group consisting of saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbyl groups containing from about 10 to about 40 carbon atoms; polyalkyl and polyalkenyl groups of M n ranging from about 200 to about 10 million, each of which may contain one or more functional groups selected from the groups consisting of HO, HO(CH2CH2θ) x ; OR g , COORf, C(=O)R g , aryl, and heteroaryl (Rh) groups wherein x is an integer ranging from about 1 to about 10, and Rg, Rf, and Rh are as previously defined. The integer, n, can vary from about 1 to about a thousand or greater depending upon the M n of the hydrocarbon; G is selected independently from the group consisting of OH, OC(=O)Rg, OB(ORg)2, OP(OR g )2, OP[=O](OR g )2, and R g is defined above. When J and K are attached to carbon atoms, they are independently selected from the group consisti and CHNHR k wherein wherein RpOH, NHRf,and NϋR^; C=NR m wherein R m =ureido, thioureido, and guanidino; C=NR n , and CHNHR n , wherein R n =3-dimethylamino-propyl, and 3-(4- morpholinyl)propyl; C=NR 0 , and CHNHR Q , wherein R^M^C^CH^ NH2CH2CH2CH2, NH2(CH2CH2NH) X CH 2 CH2, and x is an integer ranging from about 1 to 10; C(Σ)-OH, and C(Σ)NHRg, wherein Σ is selected from the group consisting of CN, and P(=O)[ORg]2i C=CΩ2 wherein Ω is selected from the group consisting of CN, and COORg; moreover, L, M, and Q are independently selected from the group consisting of C(Rf)2, J and K; in addition, L and M is also selected dependently from the group consisting of 1,2-phenylene, and 1,2- dihydroxyethylene-l,2-diyl; however, when attached to heteroatoms, J and K are C=O, and M a is independently selected from the group consisting of C=O, C=NRf, and C(Rf)2; moreover, L, M and Q can be independently selected from O, NRf, and N-m, wherein m is selected from the group consisting of Li, Na, K, Ca/2, Mg/2, Ba/2 and Cu/2; when a is zero, M is deleted in (Id), J and K are C=O, and L and Q are independently selected from the group consisting of ORf, O-m, OCH 2 C(CH OH) 3 , NHC(CH 2 OH) 3 , NHR n , and NHR 0 ; also, L and Q are selected dependently from NHCH2CH2NHCH2CH2CH2NHCH2CH2NH, and NH(CH2CH2NH) X CH2CH2NH, wherein x is an integer ranging from about 1 to about 10. Again, when attached to heteroatoms in 3d, J and K are C=O, and E and F are independently selected from the group consisting of ORf, O-m, OCH 2 C(CH 2 OH) 3 , NHC(CH 2 OH) 3 , NHR n , and NHR Q ; also, when J and K are C=O, E and F are selected dependently from NHCH2CH2NHCH2CH2CH2NHCH2CH2NH, and NH(CH2CH2NH) X CH 2 CH2NH, wherein x, m, Rf, R n , and R Q are defined above. When 2 or more ene adducts are condensed with polyamines, amino alcohols or polyols, coupling and chain extension can occur. With polyfϊinctional dispersant polymers containing one double bond per chain, wherein n averages about 1.1 to about 1.8 functional groups per chain, chain extension occurs, and often enhances dispersant performance. Highly preferred dispersant products are prepared via the animation of ene adducts of IT monomer and RpH, wherein R«H comprises a group of unsaturated polymers consisting of polyisobutylene, poly-n-butene, poly-alpha-olefin, ethylene propylene, and ethylene butene- 1 copolymers having M n values of from about 500 to about 20K, and having about one double bond per chain. Especially preferred dispersant viscosity modifier products are prepared via ene and radical chemistry are designated by RqH, and are selected from the group consisting of ethylene propylene 5-ethylidene 2-norbornene teφolymers, ethylene propylene copolymers, partially hydrogenated star-branched polyisoprene, and styrene butadiene block and tapered copolymers having M n values of about 20K to about 500K. Preferred products of the present invention for use as dispersants and V.I.- dispersants, are 2d (shown above) wherein R; = polyalkyl, and polyalkenyl, with M n ranging from about 500 to about 100K, J and K are independently selected from the group consisting of C=O, C=NR n and C=NR 0 , where L+M = 1,2-phenylene; also, Id wherein a is zero and M is deleted, G=OH, J and K are C=O, and L and Q are selected independently from the group consisting of ORf, NHR n , and NHR Q ; also, L+Q are dependently selected from NHCH2CH2NH- CH2CH2CH2NHCH2CH2NH, and NHCH 2 CH2(NHCH 2 CH2) X CH2CH2 H, wherein x is an integer ranging from 1 to about 10. Still other preferred dispersant products are prepared by reacting 1 to 2 moles of adducts derived from KM, IT and AX and ethylene butene copolymers with M n ranging from about IK to about 20K, and n averaging from about 1.2 to about 1.8, with about one to two moles of a polyamine such as tetraethylene pentamine. Product Formation The products of this invention are prepared by reacting a wide assortment of ene and radical adducts with selected nucleophiles, electrophiles and metal ions according to the following protocol: Adducts of hydrocarbons and polymers derived from: [i] vicinal polyketones such as indantrione (IT), naphthalene 1,2,3,4- tetrone, rhodizonic acid, triquinoyl, croconic acid, leuconic acid, dimethyl triketone, and diphenyl triketone; [ii] vicinal polycarbonyl containing amides such as alloxan (AX), 1,3- dimethylalloxan, quinoline-2,3,4 -trione; and [iii] vicinal polycarbonyl containing esters , and lactones, such as isopropylidene ketomalonate, furan-2,3,4-trione, benzopyran-2,3,4-trione, dehydroascorbic acid and its derivatives, and diethyl ketomalonate (KM); when reacted with: [a] nucleophiles such as amines, hydrazines, alcohols, water, polyamines, polyols, amino alcohols, amino thiols, and dithiols; [b] electrophiles such as acylating agents like carboxy anhydrides and esters, borate esters, phosphite and phosphate esters; and [c] metal salts and metal complexes; produce a wide assortment of products consisting of antioxidants, antioxidant- dispersants, dispersant viscosity modifiers, detergents, and multifunctional additives for fuels and lubes. The structure and yield of products derived from the chemistry outlined above are a sensitive function of reagent structure and reaction parameters. The structures depicted for the characterized products illustrate in part, the multiple reaction pathways involved in product formation. When polyfunctional adducts are used in the foregoing reactions, related products, some of which can be chain extended in nature and not easily defined, will often be present. Accordingly, the products derived from lc, 2c, and 3 c via reaction with the nucleophiles, electrophiles, and metal salts and metal complexes, can be complex mixtures which are highly useful as fuel and lube additives. Typically the reactions are conducted by contacting, e.g., mixing, the adduct with the nucleophile, electrophile, or metal reagent as the case may be, neat or in a suitable solvent at a temperature, and time sufficient to form the product. The precise conditions for carrying out the reactions are not critical. Electrophilic reactions will usually involve the hydroxyl group attached to the ene or radical adduct. Useful electrophiles for reacting with adducts to from products include carboxylic acids, anhydrides, and esters, phosphites, phosphates, boric acid, and borate esters Useful metals that react with adducts include alkali metals such as lithium, sodium, potassium; alkaline earth metals such as calcium, magnesium, barium; and transition metals such as copper, nickel, and cobalt. Useful carriers (counter ions) for the alkali and alkaline earth metals include acetate, carbonate, bicarbonate, and oxide counter ions; carriers for the transition metals include acetate ion, and oxygen-containing ligands such as acetylacetone (2,4-pentanedione). Useful nucleophiles include mono-reactive nucleophiles, such as monoamine, hydrazine, and monohydric alcohol reagents, and poly-reactive nucleophiles such as polyamine, amino alcohol, and polyol reagents. Useful amines feature a NH2 or NH group capable of reacting with the adducts of the present invention. The NH2 or NH functional group can be attached to linear and/or branched alkanes having from about 1 to 100 carbons. The NH2, NH, or aminoalkyl groups can also be attached to homocyclic rings such as a cycloalkane having from 3 to about 18 members, aromatic rings, or fused aromatic rings as typified by benzene and naphthalene, respectively; heterocyclic rings, or fused heterocyclic rings having 5 or 6 members consisting of carbon, nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur. All of the above described amines can contain substituents including ethers, polyethers, thioethers and polythioethers; carboxy, carboxamide and nitrile groups; sulfur-oxygen substituents; and phosphorus-oxygen substituents. The presence of these substituents in amine containing alkanes, homocycles, and heterocycles imparts new and useful properties to the additive products. Reaction of the above amines with adducts lc, 2c and 3 c, depending on reaction conditions, produces a wide assortment of useful amide, imide and imine derivatives. The reduction of the imines with boranes affords useful amine products. Hydrazines useful in the present invention include hydrazine groups attached to alkanes, homocyclics, and heterocyclics as described above. Reaction of the above hydrazines with adducts lc, 2c and 3 c of the present invention affords useful hydrazide and hydrazone products. Reduction of certain hydrazones with borohydride, for example, gives useful substituted hydrazine derivatives. Monohydric alcohols useful in the present invention include hydroxy alkanes, hydroxy and hydroxyalkyl containing homocycles, and heterocycles as well as their substituted derivatives by analogy with the amines described above. In a highly preferred embodiment of the present invention, polyamines, amino alcohols, and polyhydric alcohols are reacted with the ene and radical adducts to give a wide variety of useful products. An important feature of polyreactive nucleophiles is their ability to couple two or more adducts together thereby chain extending the product, and oftimes enhancing the viscometric properties of the product. Moreover, the presence of multiple functionality in the radical and ene adducts leads to even more pronounced M n increases, and enhanced V.I. performance owing to the ability of polyamines to induce chain extension via reaction with multiple functional groups attached to the adducts. Useful polyamines and substituted polyamines feature two or more amino groups selected from NH2 and/or NH radicals which are capable of reacting with the adducts of the present invention. By analogy with monoamines, the amine groups can be attached to alkanes, homocycles, and heterocycles; in addition, the polyamine derivatives may also contain one or more substituents . Useful polyamines feature two or more amino radicals such as NH2 and/or NH, and are attached to alkanes or branched alkanes containing from about 2 to about ten thousand carbons. Other useful polyamines are those where the amino or aminoalkyl groups are attached to a homocycle, a heterocycle; or, wherein the NH groups of the polyamine are members of a heterocyclic ring having from about 6 to about 30 members. The cyclic polyamines may contain other heteroatoms such as oxygen and sulfur. Examples of polyamines bearing alkane and substituted alkane groups include: ethylenediamine (EDA), l,3-propane-diamine(PDA), 1,2-propanediamine, 1,4-butanediamine, diethylenetriamine (DETA), N-2-aminoethyl-l,3-propane-di- amine, tri-ethylenetetramine(TETA), tetraethylenepentamine (TEPA), and penta- ethylenehexamine (PEHA). The most preferred polyamines are the alkylene polyamines as typified by EDA DETA, TEPA, PEHA, their higher molecular weight polyamine homologs, and commercial polyethylene polyamines such as "Polyamine H, Polyamine 400, and Dow Polyamine E-100." In a highly preferred embodiment of the present invention, adducts Rp(KM) n , Rp(IT) n , and R p (AX) n (wherein n averages from about 1.2 to about 1.8, and Rp is a hydrocarbyl radical of a polymer selected from the group consisting of poly-n-butene, poly-alpha-olefin, ethylene propylene copolymer, and ethylene butene- 1 copolymer, said polymers having Mn values ranging from about 500 to about 20K with one double bond per chain) are aminated with the above described polyamines using various reactant ratios and reaction conditions to produce a new family of dispersants that effectively control sludge and varnish, and feature antioxidant, high base number, and VM credits. In one aspect of this embodiment, adducts bearing keto groups, typified by IT-polymer adducts, condense with polyamines (NH2-T-NHD) to give as a function of stoichiometry, a wide assortment of products represented in part by structures 4b-4g shown below wherein T is selected from the group consisting of ethylene, propylene, trimethylene, o-phenylene, and (CH2CH2NH) X CH2CH2; and D is selected from the group consisting of H, and (CH2CH2NH) X H wherein x is an integer ranging from 1 to about 10, and Rp is defined above. The kind and amount of the products illustrated below, can vary substantially depending on the structure of the adducts, the polyamines, stoichiometry, and reaction conditions. In addition, when the mole ratio of RpIT: polyamine is about 2 or more, and D=(CH2CH2NH) X H, the primary amine groups available in structures 4b-4f shown below condense with additional RpIT to afford a plurality of other higher molecular weight products. With a judicious choice of reagents, stoichiometry, and reaction parameters, one skilled in the art, can design an additive composition which meets a specific fuel and/or lube end use. Aminating polyfunctional adducts such as R p (IT) n wherein n averages from about 1.2 to 1.8, with the above-described polyamines provides high nitrogen products with significantly enhanced antioxidant, dispersant and viscosity properties, and said products represent an especially preferred embodiment of the present invention. In another aspect of the preferred embodiment, adducts bearing ester, and amide groups as typified by keto malonate and alloxan polymer adducts, RjKM, and RjAX, respectively, condense with polyamines to give mixtures of macrocyclic amidoamines (RjMC) and acyclic amidoamines (RjAC). The aminolysis of RjAX (5 a) with NH2-T-NHD (pa) involving the proposed ureido intermediate as depicted by 5b is shown below: [5d] The kind and amount of amidoamines, 5c and 5d, will depend upon the nature of the adduct, and the polyamine, as well as stoichiometry and reaction conditions. Both the macrocyclic amidoamines (5c) and acyclic amidoamines (5d) are useful additives, per se, as well as precursors to transition metal complexes, such as copper complexes which are known to be effective antioxidants. Aminating polyfunctional adducts such as Rp(AX) n , and Rp(KM) n , wherein n averages from about 1.2 to about 1.8, as taught above, provide highly preferred products comprising macrocyclic amidoamines (RpMC) and acyclic amidoamines (RpAC), with enhanced dispersant and viscosity properties. Amino alcohols are also effective nucleophiles in converting the ene and radical adducts to products with useful fuel and lube properties. Useful amino alcohols and substituted amino alcohols feature one or more amino groups selected from NH2 and/or NH radicals, and one or more OH groups capable of reacting with one or more adducts of the present invention. Amino alcohol reagents used in designing effective dispersants feature amino radicals such as NH2 and/or NH, and one or more OH radicals attached to alkanes or branched alkanes containing from about 2 to about a hundred carbons. The amino and aminoalkyl groups present in amino alcohol reactants can be attached to alkanes, homocycles, and heterocycles; moreover, each class of amino alcohol may contain one or more substituents. Amino alcohols such as THAM (i.e., tris-(hydroxymethyl)amino-methane) are also effective nucleophiles for converting the ene and radical adducts from alloxan and ketomalonate ester to polyol products. Accordingly, the aminolysis of ketomalonate-hydrocarbon adducts with THAM in the presence of bases such as potassium carbonate, affords mixtures containing amido polyols as depicted below. If heated at about 160°C for about 8 hours, the amido polyol products cyclodehydrate to form oxazolines. Useful polyols and substituted polyols for converting ene and radical adducts to products feature two or more OH groups capable of reacting with one or more adducts. Polyhydric alcohols capable of reacting with one or more of the adducts of the present invention are depicted by the formula: HO-λ-OH wherein λ is selected from ethylene, propylene, butylene, and trimethylene; -CH 2 C(CH2OH) 2 CH2-, and -CH 2 (CHOH) x CH 2 . Polyol dispersant products are prepared by treating adducts, RjAX, and RjKM, with pentaerythritol (PE) and cascade polyols as taught in US-A-4587329. Thus, RjAX undergoes alcoholysis with PE in the presence of diazabicycloundecene (DBN) to produce a mixture of polyol ester products comprising the bis-PE ester as shown below. Moreover, combinations of polyol and polyamine reagents can be employed advantageously to produce mixed dispersants that are useful in certain fuel and lube applications. For example, the alcoholysis of polyamine-treated AX-hydrocarbon and KM-hydrocarbon adducts with PE and cascade polyols affords highly useful mixed dispersants. The adducts and products of the present invention can be treated with metal salts and metal complexes to produce useful multi-functional additives for fuels and lubes. Thus, metal-containing derivatives of (i) adducts lc, 2c, and 3c and (ϋ) certain products of such adducts with amines, polyamines, amino alcohols, alcohols, and polyhydric alcohols, can be produced via addition of metal salts and metal complexes to said adducts and products. Useful alkali, alkaline earth, and transition metal salts are preferably non-halogen, and, more preferably carboxylate, alkoxide, hydroxide, oxide, bicarbonate, and carbonate salts which upon interaction with certain adducts and products of the present invention, form innocuous carboxylic acid, alcohol, water, and CO2 by-products, respectively. Useful metal complexes include alkali, alkaline earth, and transition metal derivatives of chelating agents such as 2,4-pentanedione. The metal derivatives obtained from the metal-treated adducts and products of the present invention, owing to their antioxidant and detergent properties effectively maintain engine cleanliness by (a) suspending, and dissolving sludge, varnish and their precursors as well as (b) preventing or inhibiting the formation of sludge and varnish which tends to induce engine wear, and adversely affect engine performance. Post Products Another aspect of the present invention involves the post-treatment of the products Id, 2d, and 3d to further enhance their properties as fuel and lube additives. Thus, the post-treatment, or "capping" of polyamine and polyol derivatives of Id, 2d, and 3d, with electrophilic reagents can endow these products with enhanced seal compatibility properties; enhanced product stability; antioxidant properties and improved chelating, complexing, and aggregation properties. These attributes translate into improved dispersancy, viscometrics and fluoroelastomer seal compatibility properties for the additives of the present invention. Useful "capping" reagents for the post-treatment of products Id, 2d, and 3d include: boron-oxygen compounds; alkane carboxylic acids, anhydrides, and esters; 5-,6-, and 7-membered lactones; alpha, beta-unsaturated acids and esters; 1,3- diketones, and 1,3-keto esters; oxiranes, and thiranes; aldehydes, and ketones; isocyanates, and isothiocyanates; sulfur and sulfur-oxygen reagents; and phosphorus-oxygen and phosphorus-sulfur reagents. Post-products containing boron can be formed via the addition of boric acid, ester or metaborate ester to the aminated adducts of the present invention. A preferred method of the present invention involves the direct treatment of adducts with a soluble form of boron which is prepared by combining a mixture of a polyamine and boric acid, and heating the mixture at about 130°C until a clear liquid polyamine metaborate (PMB) salt is obtained as shown below wherein T is selected from the group consisting of ethylene, propylene, trimethylene, and (CH2CH2NH) X CH2CH2; and x is a numerical value ranging from about 1 to about 10. Addition of the PMB to an adduct of the present invention at about 120°C to about 180°C, appears to "bor-aminate" the adduct, and produces a borated polyamine dispersant in one step. Electrophiles such as ethyl acetate, acetic anhydride, ethyl ortho-acetate, ethyl acetoacetate, and 2,4-pentandione react with polyamine-modified additives, thereby passivating their basic properties, and as a consequence, enhancing their seal compatibility properties. Similarly, the addition of thioacids such as sulfanes (di-, tri- and tetra- sulfane), thiosulfuric acid, and thiophosphoric acid to polyamine-treated adducts produces salt derivatives with enhanced seal compatibility properties as well as antioxidant properties. The adducts, products, and post-products have been found to be especially useful as fuel and lube additives. When the additive compositions of this invention are used in fuels, such as middle distillates boiling from about 65°C to about 425°C, including kerosene, diesel fuels, home heating fuel oil, and jet fuels, a concentration of the additive in the fuel in the range of typically from about 0.001 wt.% to about 0.5 wt.%, preferably about 0.005 wt.% to about 0.2 wt.% based on the total weight of the composition, will usually be employed. The adducts, products and post-products of this invention are useful additives for fuels in the gasoline boiling range, for preventing or reducing deposits in the combustion chamber, and adjacent surfaces such as valves, ports, and spark plugs, and thereby reducing octane requirements. The additives (i.e., the adducts, products and post-products) of this invention, and particularly the polymer analogs, find their primary utility in lubricating oil compositions, which employ a base oil in which the additives are dissolved or dispersed. Such base oils may be natural or synthetic and include those conventionally employed as crankcase lubricating oils for spark-ignited and compression-ignited internal combustion engines, such as automobile and truck engines, marine and railroad diesel engines, and the like. While any effective amount of these additives can be incorporated into a fully formulated lubricating oil composition, it is contemplated that the composition contain from about 0.01 to about 10 wt %, e.g., and preferably from about 0.1 to about 6 wt.%, based on the weight of said composition. The additives of the present invention can be incoφorated into the lubricating oil in any convenient way. Thus, they can be added directly to the oil by dispersing, or dissolving the same in the oil at the desired level of concentration, typically with the aid of a suitable solvent such as toluene, cyclohexane, or tetrahydrofuran. Such blending can occur at room temperature or elevated temperatures. Alternatively, these additives may be blended with a suitable oil- soluble solvent or base oil to form a concentrate, which may then be blended with a lubricating oil base stock to obtain the final formulation. Concentrates will typically contain from about 2 to about 80 wt.%, and preferably from about 5 to about 40 wt.% based on the weight of the additive. Advantageous results are also achieved by employing the additives of the present invention in base oils conventionally employed in and/or adapted for use as power transmitting fluids such as automatic transmission fluids, tractor fluids, universal tractor fluids and hydraulic fluids, heavy duty hydraulic fluids, power steering fluids and the like. Gear lubricants, industrial oils, pump oils and other lubricating oil compositions can also benefit from the incoφoration therein of the additives of the present invention. Substantial benefits can also be realized by employing low molecular weight (M n ranging from about 400 to about 2K) products and post-products of polyamine-treated adducts especially RpAX, RpIT, and RpKM adducts, in two- cycle engine oils. Suitable polyamines include: EDA, PDA, DETA, TETA, TEPA, Polyamine-H, and o-phenylene diamine. When employed in a lubricating oil composition, the additive of the present invention, typically in a minor amount, effectively imparts enhanced dispersancy and/or V.I. improvement. Conventional additives as well as additives of the present invention can be used to meet the particular requirements of a lubricating oil composition. The lubricating oil base stock for the additives of the present invention typically is adapted to perform a selected function by the incoφoration of additives therein to form lubricating oil compositions (i.e., formulations). Representative additives typically present in such formulations (which can be selected from the adducts, products and post-products of the present invention) include viscosity modifiers, corrosion inhibitors, oxidation inhibitors, friction modifiers, other dispersants, anti-foaming agents, anti-wear agents, pour point depressants, detergents, rust inhibitors and the like. Especially useful dispersant VM products of the present invention are selected from the group consisting of aminated adducts of ethylene propylene copolymers (with M n values ranging from about 20K to about 100K), and ethylene propylene 5-ethylidene-2-norbornene (ENB) teφolymers (with M n values ranging from about 50K to about 100K and containing about 5 to about 10 wt % ENB) and VP monomers comprising IT, AX, 1,3 -dimethyl- alloxan, and KM. Preferred antioxidants of the present invention are adducts 9a, 9b, 9c and 9d prepared from hydrocarbons and rhodizonic acid, naphthalene tetrone, IT, and dehydroascorbic acid, respectively, wherein Rj is defined above. [9a] [9b] [9c] [9d] The polyamine and polyol treated adducts of IT, AX, and KM with polyisobutenes, poly-n-butenes, poly-alpha-olefins and ethylene-alpha-olefin copolymers having M n values of about IK to about 20K are outstanding dispersants. Moreover, the polyamine-treated adducts of IT and the above described polymers are highly useful antioxidant-dispersants. The sodium, calcium and magnesium salts of adducts derived from RjKM, RjAX, and RjIT, wherein Rj is selected from the group consisting of hydrocarbyl groups, and substituted hydrocarbyl groups containing about 8 to 40 carbon atoms, are especially useful detergent inhibitors of the present invention. Compositions containing the above additives are typically blended into the base oil in amounts which are effective to provide their normal attendant function. Representative effective amounts of such additives are illustrated as follows: All of said weight percents expressed herein are based on active ingredient (a.i.) content of the additive, and/or upon the total weight of any additive-package, or formulation which will be the sum of the a.i. weight of each additive plus the weight of total oil or diluent. This invention will be further understood by the following examples, which include preferred embodiments. EXAMPLES Example Al About 6.12 grams of diethyl ketomalonate (KM) and 8.84 grams of 1- octadecene were combined in a reaction flask, and stirred at 170°C for 3 hours. The temperature was raised to 200°C and kept at 200°C for 30 hours. Upon cooling, the reaction mixture solidified. The solids, recrystallized from dioxane, analyzed for 17.45% oxygen, featured an infrared spectrum with a strong hydroxyl absoφtion band at 3 microns, and a very strong ester carbonyl band at 5.82 microns, a mass spectrum with a protonated molecular ion at m/z=427, and a CMR spectrum (DMSO-dg) with ester, olefinic and carbinol carbon signals at 169.6, 133.8, 123.1, and 78.7 ppm. The characterization data fully support the adduct, diethyl 2-octadecenyl tartronate shown below: Example A2 About 0.48 g of diethyl 2-octadecenyl tartronate of Example Al, 0.83 g of tris-(hydroxymethyl) aminomethane (THAM), and 0.55 g of K2CO3 were added to about 75 ml of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) at room temperature. After stirring at 40°C for about 48 hours, the reaction mixture was filtered, and rotoevaporated at 100°C for about 4 hours. The residue featured an IR spectrum with a strong amide band at 6 microns and a FAB MS with a protonated molecular ion at m/z=577, suggesting that the reaction mixture contained N,N'-bis-[(tris- hydroxymethyl)methyl] 2-(2-octadecenyl)-tartronamide as illustrated below. Example A3 One hundred grams of polyisobutylene, M n «950, and 34.0 grams of KM were combined in a reaction flask and stirred 200°C for about 40 hours. Rotoevaporation of the reaction mixture at about 100°C for 8 hours afforded a residue which featured an infrared spectrum with a strong ester carbonyl adsoφtion band at 5.85 microns, and a saponification number of 92. Examples A4 to H5 A series of ene adducts were prepared from various combinations of polycarbonyl compounds and unsaturated hydrocarbons using methods similar to those employed in Examples Al and A3 above. Similarly, a series of products was prepared from various combinations of ene adducts and reagents selected from nucleophiles, electrophiles and metal ions using methods like that employed in Example A2. The resulting adducts and products were then analyzed by one or more techniques such as infrared absoφtion spectroscopy, elemental analysis, mass spectroscopy , etc. Table 1 summarizes the preparation and analysis of the adducts, and Table 2 summarizes products derived from the adducts. The thermal oxidative stabilities of the IT-treated EB polymers of Examples E7 and E10 were determined relative to the thermal oxidative stability of their respective starting EB polymers by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), which measures weight loss due to oxidative degradation as the polymers are heated gradually to 350°C in the presence of air. For both Examples, the TGA data clearly indicated that functionalization of the EB polymer with IT significantly stabilized the polymer toward thermal oxidative degradation. Analogous TGA data was collected for the starting EB polymer, the IT- treated EB polymer (adduct), and the TETA- and TEPA-treated adduct (dispersant product) of Example F4 and Example F8 respectively. In both cases the data showed that the adduct and dispersant product were significantly more stable than the starting polymer toward thermal oxidative stability. The products of Examples F4, F5, F9, H2, H3, H4 and H5 were tested for sludge inhibition properties via the SIB test and varnish inhibition properties via the VIB test. The SIB test has been found, after a large number of evaluations, to be an excellent test for assessing the dispersing power of lubricating oil dispersant additives. The medium chosen for the SIB test was a used crankcase mineral lubricating oil composition having an original viscosity of about 325 SUS at 38°C that had been used in a taxicab that was driven generally for short trips only, thereby causing a buildup of a high concentration of sludge precursors. The oil that was used contained only a refined base mineral lubricating oil, a viscosity index improver, a pour point depressant and zinc dialkyldithiophosphate anti-wear addi¬ tive. The oil contained no sludge dispersant. A quantity of such used oil was acquired by draining and refilling the taxicab crankcase at 1000-2000 mile intervals. The SIB test is conducted in the following manner: The aforesaid used crankcase oil, which is milky brown in color, is freed of sludge by centrifUging for one hour at about 39,000 gravities (gs.). The resulting clear bright red supernatant oil is ten decanted from the insoluble sludge particles thereby separated out. However, the supernatant oil still contains oil-soluble sludge precursors which on heating under the conditions employed by this test will tend to form additional oil- insoluble deposits of sludge. The sludge inhibiting properties of the additives being tested are determined by adding to portions of the supernatant used oil, a small amount, such as 0.5, 1 or 2 weight percent, of the particular additive being tested. Ten grams of each blend being tested are placed in a stainless steel centrifuge tube and are heated at 135°C for 16 hours in the presence of air. Following the heating the tube containing the oil being tested is cooled and then centrifuged for about 30 minutes at room temperature at about 39,000 gs. Any deposits of new sludge that form in this step are separated from the oil by decanting the supernatant oil and then carefully washing the sludge deposits with 25 ml of heptane to remove all remaining oil from the sludge and further centrifuging. The weight of the new solid sludge that has been formed in the test, in milligrams, is determined by drying the residue and weighing it. The results are reported as amount of precipitated sludge in comparison with the precipitated sludge of a blank not containing any additional additive, which blank is normalized to a rating of 10. The less new sludge precipitated in the presence of the additive, the lower the SIB value and the more effective is the additive as a sludge dispersant. In other words, if the additive gives half as much precipitated sludge as the blank, then it would be rated 5.0, since the blank will be normalized to 10. The VIB test was used to determine varnish inhibition. Here, each test sample consisted of 10 grams of lubricating oil containing a small amount of the additive being tested. The test oil to which the additive is ad-mixed is of the same type as used in the above-described SIB test. Each 10 gram sample was heat soaked over night at about 140°C and thereafter centrifliged to remove the sludge. The supernatant fluid of each sample was subjected to heat cycling from about 150° C to room temperature over a period of 3.5 hours at a frequency of about 2 cycles per minute. During the heating phase, gas which was a mixture of about 0.7 volume percent SO2, 1 4 volume percent NO and balance air was bubbled through the test samples. During the cooling phase water vapor was bubbled through the test samples. At the end of the test period, which testing cycle can be repeated as necessary to determine the inhibiting effect of any additive, the wall surfaces of the test flasks in which the samples were contained are visually evaluated as to the varnish inhibition. The amount of varnish imposed on the walls is rated to values of from 1 to 11 with the higher number being the greater amount of varnish, in comparison with a blank with no additive that was rated 11. Ten grams of SIB test oil were mixed with 0.025 or 0.05 grams of the products of Examples and tested in the above described SIB and VIB tests. As shown by the test data in Table 3, the additives of Examples F9, F5, F4, H2, H5, H3 and H4 featured outstanding results in varnish inhibition and sludge dispersing ability compared with the high and low MW commercial dispersants, standards A and B, respectively. Post-Products Example Jl Two grams of the product of Example F4 dissolved in 6 ml of tetrahydrofuran (THF) and 70 mg of boric acid were combined and stirred at 100° for 24 hours. Rotoevaporation of the filtered reaction mixture afforded the borated product. Example J2 About a tenth mole (23.4 grams) of Polyamine-H (a commercial polyamine composed primarily of ethyleneamines heavier than TEPA with the PEHA cut left in the product, and analyzing for 33 % nitrogen) was stirred at 120°C in a 250 ml beaker, while 12.4 grams of boric acid were added in gram portions over a 5 minute period. The mixture was stirred at 120°C for about an hour, or until a clear solution was obtained. The clear, amber-colored PAM metaborate (PMB) reagent analyzed for 6.05% boron and 23.29% nitrogen. Example J3 About 36 grams of EB copolymer (M n «1.8K and 55% ethylene) and 4 grams of IT hydrate were stirred at 160°C for 8 hours in a nitrogen-blanketed reactor. Chromato-graphic analysis of a 6 gram sample indicated that 83.9% of the EB polymer was functionalized. The remainder of the reaction mixture, which was stirred at about 140°C, was treated with 1.8 grams of PMB described in Example J2. After PMB addition, the mixture was stirred at 140°C for about 2 hours, and subsequently diluted with 24 grams of S150N mineral oil. A sample of the product analyzed for 0.75% nitrogen, and 0.11% boron. Chromatographic analysis confirmed that the product contained 49.6% active ingredient. Example J4 One hundred grams of ethylene butene- 1 (EB) copolymer (M n «3.2K and 55 wt % ethylene), and 6 grams of anhydrous IT were combined and stirred at 160° C for 24 hours. To bor-aminate the resulting adduct, EBIT, a TEPA-metaborate reagent was prepared by heating 18.9 grams of TEPA in a 100 ml beaker, and adding 12.4 grams of boric acid in small portions to the TEPA over an 15 minute period. The mixture was stirred at 120°C for about 1 hour until the boric acid underwent dehydration to the metaborate and dissolved in the TEPA to form a clear, amber-colored liquid (TEPA-MBA). The reaction mixture containing the EBIT was diluted with 40 grams of S150N mineral oil to facilitate stirring at 140°C, and then treated with 6.3 grams of TEPA-MBA prepared above. The mixture was stirred at 140°C for an hour while a mild flow of nitrogen over the reaction surface removed water from the reactor. Twenty two more grams of S150N mineral oil were added to make a ca. 50% oil solution of the bor-aminated EBIT product The oil solution of EBIT-TEPA-MBA dispersant analyzed for 0.81% nitrogen and 0.26% boron. Example J5 In a similar manner, an EBIT with n=1.38 was formed by reacting lOOg of EB polymer (M n =3200) and 8.2g of IT hydrate for about 5 hours at 155°C. A ca. 50% S150N mineral oil solution of TEPA-MBA treated EBIT was then prepared, which solution analyzed for 0.84% N and 0.20% B. Example J6 In acylation, typically, one mole equivalent of an acylating agent such as ethyl acetate, ethyl acetoacetate, butyrolactone, or 2,4-pentadione is added to one or more basic NH and/or NH2 groups in the dispersant by heating the aminated adduct with the acylating agent at 120°C until IR analysis indicates complete reaction. Example J7 Regarding salt formation, the addition of thiosulfiiric acid (TSA) and thiophosphoric acid (TPA) to polyamine-treated adducts lc, 2c, and 3c affords salt derivatives with antioxidant properties, and enhanced seal compatibility properties. Typically, sufficient amounts of TSA and/or TPA are added directly to the polyamine-treated adducts to form salts via neutralization of one or more basic nitrogen sites present in the additive or dispersant. For example, an amine-treated adduct and sufficient TSA and/or TPA are stirred at about 80°C for 4 hours to effect salt formation. Example J8 Four grams of the EBIT-TETA product of Example F4 and 250 mg of ammonium thiosulfate were combined and stirred at 100°C for 48 hours. Rotoevaporation of the mixture at 80° for 4 hours afforded a residue which corresponds to the thiosulfate salt of the EBIT PAM dispersant. High MW Polymer Adducts and Products Example Kl Ten grams of ethylene propylene ethylidene norbornene teφolymer (M n « 55K, containing about 43 wt% propylene, and 5 wt.% 2-ethylidene-5-norbornene) were dissolved in 90 grams of xylene at 100°C, and poured into a nitrogen- blanketed reactor fitted with a mechanical stirrer, and reflux condensor. Using a silicone oil bath, the reactor was heated to 120°C and a half gram IT hydrate dissolved in 10 ml of dioxane was added dropwise to the reactor. The reaction mixture was stirred at 120°C for about 6 hours, and at 140°C for 15 hours. The functionalized polymer was precipitated by addition of the cooled reaction mixture to a liter of acetone. The dried polymer analyzed for 0.94% oxygen, and featured an infrared spectrum (film) with an intense carbonyl absoφtion band at about 5.8 microns. GPC analysis showed that ene functionalization with IT monomer did not affect the molecular weight distribution of the teφolymer.
