Description: POLY(OXYALKYLENE) HYDROXY AND AMINO AROMATIC CARBAMATES AND FUEL COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING THE SAME BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention This invention relates to novel hydroxyaromatic compounds. More particularly, this invention relates to novel poly(oxyalkylene) hydroxy and amino aromatic carbamates and their use in fuel compositions to prevent and control engine deposits. Description of the Related Art it is well known that automobile engines tend to form deposits on the surface of engine components, such as carburetor ports, throttle bodies, fuel injectors, intake ports and intake valves, due to the oxidation and polymerization of hydrocarbon fuel. These deposits, even when present in relatively minor amounts, often cause noticeable driveability problems, such as stalling and poor acceleration. Moreover, engine deposits can significantly increase an automobile's fuel consumption and production of exhaust pollutants. Therefore, the development of effective fuel detergents or "deposit control" additives to prevent or control such deposits is of considerable importance and numerous such materials are known in the art. For example, aliphatic hydrocarbon-substituted phenols are known to reduce engine deposits when used in fuel compositions. U.S. Patent No. 3,849,085, issued November 19, 1974 to Kreuz et al., discloses a motor fuel composition comprising a mixture of hydrocarbons in the -2- gasoline boiling range containing about 0.01 to 0.25 volume percent of a high molecular weight aliphatic hydrocarbon- substituted phenol in which the aliphatic hydrocarbon radical has an average molecular weight in the range of about 500 to 3,500. This patent teaches that gasoline compositions containing minor amount of an aliphatic hydrocarbon-substituted phenol not only prevent or inhibit the formation of intake valve and port deposits in a gasoline engine, but also enhance the performance of the fuel composition in engines designed to operate at higher operating temperatures with a minimum of decomposition and deposit formation in the manifold of the engine. Similarly, U.S. Patent No. 4,134,846, issued January 16, 1979 to Machleder et al., discloses a fuel additive composition comprising a mixture of (1) the reaction product of an aliphatic hydrocarbon-substituted phenol, epichlorohydrin and a primary or secondary mono- or polyamine, and (2) a polyalkylene phenol. This patent teaches that such compositions show excellent carburetor, induction system and combustion chamber detergency and, in addition, provide effective rust inhibition when used in hydrocarbon fuels at low concentrations. Amino phenols are also known to function as detergents/dispersants, antioxidants and anti-corrosion agents when used in fuel compositions. U.S. Patent No. 4,320,021, issued March 16, 1982 to R. M. Lange, for example, discloses amino phenols having at least one substantially saturated hydrocarbon-based substituent of at least 30 carbon atoms. The amino phenols of this patent are taught to impart useful and desirable properties to oil-based lubricants and normally liquid fuels. Nitro phenols have also been employed as fuel additives. For example, U.S. Patent No. 4,347,148, issued August 31, 1982 to K. E. Davis, discloses nitro phenols containing at least one aliphatic substituent having at least about 40 carbon atoms. The nitro phenols of this patent are taught to be useful as detergents, dispersants, antioxidants and demulsifiers for lubricating oil and fuel compositions. Fuel additives containing a poly(oxyalkylene) moiety are also known in the art. For example, U.S. Patent No. 4,191,537, issued March 4, 1980 to R. A. Lewis et al., discloses a fuel composition comprising a major portion of hydrocarbons boiling in the gasoline range and from 30 to 2000 ppm of a hydrocarbyl poly(oxyalkylene) aminocarbamate having a molecular weight from about 600 to 10,000, and at least one basic nitrogen atom. The hydrocarbyl poly(oxyalkylene) moiety is composed of oxyalkylene units selected from 2 to 5 carbon oxyalkylene units. These fuel compositions are taught to maintain the cleanliness of intake systems without contributing to combustion chamber deposits. Aromatic compounds containing a poly(oxyalkylene) moiety are also known in the art. For example, the above-mentioned U.S. Patent No. 4,191,537, discloses alkylphenyl poly(oxyalkylene) polymers which are useful as intermediates in the preparation of alkylphenyl poly(oxyalkylene) aminocarbamates. Similarly, U.S. Patent No. 4,881,945, issued November 21, 1989 to Buckley, III, discloses alkylphenyl poly(oxyalkylene) aminocarbamates which are useful as fuel additives, wherein the alkyl group on the alkylphenyl moiety contains at least 40 carbon atoms. Additionally, hydroxyaromatic compounds containing a poly(oxyalkylene) moiety are known in the art. For example, U.S. Patent No. 4,952,732, issued August 28, 1990 to G. P. Speranza et al., discloses Mannich condensates prepared from a phenol, formaldehyde and an alkylamine containing propoxy groups and, optionally, ethoxy groups. These Mannich condensates are taught to be useful as corrosion inhibitors, water repellent agents, paint adhesion promotors, and also as intermediates for preparing surfactants, and polyols finding use in the manufacture of polyurethane foam. U.S. Patent No. 3,933,470, issued January 20, 1976 to Cross et al., discloses esters of hydroxycarbanilic acid, wherein the ester moiety is straight or branched alkyl of 1 to ιo carbon atoms, cycloalkyl, benzyl, chlorobenzyl, methylbenzyl, phenyl, chlorophenyl, methylphenyl, alkenyl of 2 to 6 carbon atoms, monohaloalkenyl, alkynyl of 2 to 6 carbon atoms, monohaloalkynyl, and monomethoxyalkynyl. This patent teaches such hydroxycarbanilic acid esters as intermediates in the preparation of alkynyloxy, alkenyloxy and cyanoalkoxy carbanilic acid esters, which are useful as herbicides for controlling broadleaf weeds and grasses. it has now been discovered that certain hydroxy and amino aromatic carbamates having a poly(oxyalkylene) "tail" provide excellent control of engine deposits, especially intake valve deposits, when employed as fuel additives in fuel compositions. 1 SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 2 3 The present invention provides novel poly(oxyalkylene) 4 hydroxy and amino aromatic carbamates which are useful as 5 fuel additives for the prevention and control of engine 6 deposits, particularly intake valve deposits. 7 8 The poly(oxyalkylene) hydroxy and amino aromatic carbamates 9 of the present invention have the formula: 0 17 or a fuel-soluble salt thereof; wherein 18 19 X is hydroxy or amino; 20 21 R is hydrogen or lower alkyl having 1 to 6 carbon atoms; 22 23 R j and R 2 are each independently hydrogen, hydroxy, lower 24 25 alkyl having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, lower alkoxy having 1 to 26 6 carbon atoms, nitro, amino, N-alkylamino wherein the alkyl __ group contains 1 to 6 carbon atoms, or N,N-dialkylamino __ wherein each alkyl group independently contains 1 to 29 6 carbon atoms; 30 31 R 3 and R 4 are each independently hydrogen or lower alkyl 3 2 having 1 to 6 carbon atoms; 33 34 R 5 is hydrogen, alkyl having l to 30 carbon atoms, phenyl, aralkyl or alkaryl having 7 to 36 carbon atoms, or an acyl group having the formula: O II -C-Rg wherein R 6 is alkyl having 1 to 30 carbon atoms, phenyl, or aralkyl or alkaryl having 7 to 36 carbon atoms; and n is an integer from 5 to 100.

In the present synthetic procedures, a hydroxyl group will preferably be protected, when necessary, as the benzyl or tert-butyldimethylsilyl ether. Introduction and removal of these protecting groups is well described in the art. Amino groups may also require protection and this may be accomplished by employing a standard amino protecting group, such as a benzyloxycarbonyl or a trifluoroacetyl group. Additionally, as will be discussed in further detail hereinbelow, the polyalkyl aromatic carbamates of this invention having an amino group on the aromatic moiety will generally be prepared from the corresponding nitro derivative. Accordingly, in many of the following procedures, a nitro group will serve as a protecting group for the amino moiety.

This reaction may be represented as follows: -0) n -R 5 (VI) (V) (VII) For those compounds of formula VII where Y is a nitro group, reduction of the nitro group by conventional procedures will provide the desired poly(oxyalkylene) amino aromatic carbamates of formula III.

Such procedures are taught, for example, in U.S. Patent Nos. 2,782,240 and 2,841,479, which are incorporated herein by reference. Preferably, the poly(oxyalkylene) alcohols of formula IV are prepared by contacting an alkoxide or phenoxide metal salt having the formula: R 5 OM (VIII) wherein R 5 is alkyl, phenyl, aralkyl or alkaryl, and M is a metal cation, such as lithium, sodium, or potassium, with about 5 to about 100 molar equivalents of an alkylene oxide (an epoxide) having the formula: 0 wherein R 3 and R 4 are as defined above. Generally, metal salt VIII is prepared by contacting the corresponding hydroxy compound R5OH with a strong base, such as sodium hydride, potassium hydride, sodium amide and the like, in an inert solvent, such as toluene, xylene and the like, under substantially anhydrous conditions at a temperature in the range from about -10°C to about 120°C for about 0.25 to about 3 hours. Metal salt VIII is generally not isolated, but is reacted in situ with the alkylene oxide IX to provide, after neutralization, the poly(oxyalkylene) alcohol IV. This polymerization reaction is typically conducted in a substantially anhydrous inert solvent at a temperature of about 30°C to about 150°C for about 2 to about 120 hours. Suitable solvents for this reaction, include toluene, xylene and the like. The reaction will generally be conducted at a pressure sufficient to contain the reactants and the solvent, preferably at atmospheric or ambient pressure.

Preferred alkylene oxides are propylene oxide and 1,2-butylene oxide. in the polymerization reaction, a single type of alkylene oxide may be employed, e.g., propylene oxide, in which case the product is a homopolymer, e.g., a poly(oxypropylene) . However, copolymers are equally satisfactory and random copolymers are readily prepared by contacting the metal salt VIII with a mixture of alkylene oxides, such as a mixture of propylene oxide and 1,2-butylene oxide, under polymerization conditions. Copolymers containing blocks of oxyalkylene units are also suitable for use in the present invention. Block copolymers may be prepared by contacting the metal salt VIII with first one alkylene oxide, then others in any order, or repetitively, under polymerization conditions. The poly(oxyalkylene) alcohol IV may also be prepared by living or immortal polymerization as described by S. Inoue and T. Aida in Encyclopedia of Polymer Science and Engineering, Second Edition, Supplemental Volume, J. Wiley and Sons, New York, pages 412-420 (1989) . These procedures are especially useful for preparing poly(oxyalkylene) alcohols of formula IV in which R 3 and R are both alkyl groups. As noted above, the alkoxide or phenoxide metal salt VIII is generally derived from the corresponding hydroxy compound, R 5 OH. Preferred hydroxy compounds for use in this invention include straight- or branched-chain aliphatic alcohols having 1 to about 30 carbon atoms and phenols having the formula: wherein R 13 and R 14 are each independently hydrogen or an alkyl group having 1 to about 30 carbon atoms. Preferably, the straight- or branched-chain aliphatic alcohols employed in this invention will contain 2 to about 24 carbon atoms, more preferably 4 to 12 carbon atoms. Representative examples of straight- or branched-chain aliphatic alcohols suitable for use in this invention include, but are not limited to, n-butanol; isobutanol; sec-butanol; t-butanol; n-pentanol; n-hexanol; n-heptanol; n-octanol; isooctanol; n-nonanol; n-decanol; n-dodecanol; n-hexadecanol (cetyl alcohol) ; n-octadecanol (stearyl alcohol) ; alcohols derived from linear C 10 to C 30 alpha olefins and mixtures thereof; and alcohols derived from polymers of C 2 to C 6 olefins, such as alcohols derived from polypropylene and polybutene, including polypropylene -20- alcohols having 9 to about 30 carbon atoms. Particularly preferred aliphatic alcohols are butanols. The alkylphenols of formula X used in this invention may be monoalkyl-substituted phenols or dialkyl-substituted phenols. Monoalkyl-substituted phenols are preferred, especially monoalkylphenols having an alkyl substituent in the para position. Preferably, the alkyl group of the alkylphenols employed in this invention will contain 2 to about 24 carbon atoms, more preferably 4 to 12 carbon atoms.

Particularly preferred alkylphenols are those derived from alkylation of phenol with polymers or oligomers of C 3 to C 6 olefins, such as polypropylene or polybutene. These polymers preferably contain 10 to 30 carbon atoms. An especially preferred alkylphenol is prepared by alkylating phenol with a propylene polymer having an average of 4 units. This polymer has the common name of propylene tetramer and is commercially available. As indicated above, the poly(oxyalkylene) hydroxy and amino aromatic carbamates of formula III may be prepared by first reacting a poly(oxyalkylene) alcohol of formula IV with phosgene to form a chloroformate ester. The reaction of the poly(oxyalkylene) alcohol of formula IV and phosgene is usually carried out on an essentially eq i olar basis, although excess phosgene can be used to improve the degree of reaction. Any excess phosgene can be stripped from the chloroformate ester product prior to reaction with the hydroxy or nitro aromatic amine. The reaction is typically carried out at room temperature, although temperatures in the range of about -10°C to 100°C, preferably about 0°C to 50°C, may be employed. The reaction time will usually be in the range of about 0.5 to 48 hours. The reaction may be conducted in the presence or absence of an inert solvent, such as benzene, toluene, dichloromethane, and the like. The resulting chloroformate ester of formula V is then reacted with a hydroxy or nitro aromatic amine of formula VI to form the poly(oxyalkylene) hydroxy or nitro aromatic carbamates of formula VII. Reduction of the nitro group provides the poly(oxyalkylene) amino aromatic carbamates of the invention. The reaction of chloroformate ester with the hydroxy or nitro aromatic amine will generally be carried out in the presence of an aprotic solvent, such as methyl cyanide, DMF, acetone, chloroform, toluene or THF, containing a base acceptor, such as sodium bicarbonate, sodium carbonate, triethylamine or pyridine. The reaction will generally be carried out at room temperature, although higher or lower temperatures in the range of about -10°C to 100°C may be employed. The mole ratio of the amine nitrogen to chloroformate ester will generally be in the range of about 1 to 10 moles of amine nitrogen per mole of chloroformate ester. The reaction time may vary from about 0.5 to about 48 hours. After reaction, the desired product may be isolated by conventional procedures, such as evaporation of the solvent, filtration and crystallization. The poly(oxyalkylene) hydroxy or amino aromatic carbamates of the present invention wherein the group R 5 is hydrogen, that is, compounds having the formula: ) n -OH (XI) wherein X, R, R j -R 4 , and n are as defined above, can be prepared from compounds of formula III, wherein R 5 is a benzyl group, by removing the benzyl group using conventional hydrogenolysis procedures. Compounds of formula III where R 5 represents a benzyl group may be prepared by employing a metal salt VIII derived from benzyl alcohol in the above-described synthetic procedures. Similarly, the poly(oxyalkylene) hydroxy or amino aromatic carbamates of the present invention having the formula: wherein X, R, R j -R 4 , and n are as defined above, and R 5 is an acyl group having the formula: O -C-Re wherein R 6 is as defined above, can be synthesized in several steps from a compound of formula III, wherein R 5 represents a benzyl group and the aromatic hydroxyl group or groups are protected by a hydroxyl protecting group that is stable to hydrogenolysis conditions, such as a tert-butyldimethyl-silyl group. The synthesis of carbamates of formula XII from such compounds may be effected by first removing the benzyl group using conventional hydrogenolysis conditions and then acylating the resulting hydroxyl group with a suitable acylating agent. Removal of the protecting group(s) from the aromatic hydroxyl group(s) using conventional procedures then provides a poly(oxyalkylene) hydroxy or amino aromatic carbamate of formula XII. Suitable acylating agents for use in this reaction include acyl halides, such as acyl chlorides and bromides; and carboxylic acid anhydrides. Preferred acylating agents are those having the formula: R 6 C(0)-Q, wherein R 6 is alkyl having 1 to 30 carbon atom, phenyl, or aralkyl or alkaryl having 7 to 36 carbon atoms, and Q is chloro or bromo. 01 A particularly preferred group of acylating agents are those 02 having the formula: R 6 C(0)-Q, wherein R 6 is alkyl having 4 03 to 12 carbon atoms. Representative examples of such 0* acylating agents include acetyl chloride, propionyl 05 chloride, butanoyl chloride, pivaloyl chloride, octanoyl 06 chloride, decanoyl chloride and the like. 07 08 Generally, this acylation reaction will be conducted using 09 about 0.95 to about 1.2 molar equivalents of the acylating 10 agent. The reaction is typically conducted in an inert 11 solvent, such as toluene, dichloromethane, diethyl ether and 12 the like, at a temperature in the range of about 25°C to 13 about 150°C for about 0.5 to about 48 hours. When an acyl l * halide is employed as the acylating agent, the reaction is 15 preferably conducted in the presence of a sufficient amount 16 of an amine capable of neutralizing the acid generated 17 during the reaction, such as triethylamine, di(isopropyl)- 18 ethylamine, pyridine or 4-dimethylaminopyridine. 19 20 Although the poly(oxyalkylene) hydroxy and amino aromatic 21 carbamates of the present invention may be conveniently 22 prepared by the chloroformylation reaction described above, 23 utilizing phosgene, it is also known in the art that other 24 methods of producing carbamates are available using other 25 reactants. 26 27 For example, the reaction of an isocyanate with an alcohol 28 also produces a carbamate. Accordingly, it is within the 9 skill of the art to use a selected isocyanate-substituted 30 nitro or protected hydroxyaromatic compound to react 31 directly with a poly(oxyalkylene) alcohol to provide, after 32 reduction of the nitro group, a carbamate within the scope 33 of the present invention. 34 When necessary, protection of the aromatic hydroxyl groups on the hydroxyaromatic amines may be accomplished using well-known procedures. The choice of a suitable protecting group for a particular hydroxyaromatic amine will be apparent to those skilled in the art. Various protecting groups, and their introduction and removal, are described, for example, in T. W. Greene and P. G. M. Wuts, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, Second Edition, Wiley, New York, 1991, and references cited therein. Deprotection of the aromatic hydroxyl group(s) can also be accomplished using conventional procedures. Appropriate conditions for this deprotection step will depend upon the protecting group(s) utilized in the synthesis and will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art. For example, benzyl protecting groups may be removed by hydrogenolysis under 1 to about 4 atmospheres of hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst, such as palladium on carbon. Typically, this deprotection reaction is conducted in an inert solvent, preferably a mixture of ethyl acetate and acetic acid, at a temperature of from about 0°C to about 40°C for about 1 to about 24 hours. When synthesizing the poly(oxyalkylene) aromatic carbamates of formula I having an amino group on the aromatic moiety (i.e., where X, R j and/or R 2 is an amino group), it is generally desirable to first prepare the corresponding nitro compound (i.e., wherein X, R j and/or R 2 is a nitro group) and then to reduce the nitro group to an amino group using conventional procedures. Aromatic nitro groups may be reduced to ammo groups using a number of procedures that are well known in the art. For example, aromatic nitro groups may be reduced under catalytic hydrogenation conditions; or by using a reducing metal, such as zinc, tin, iron and the like, in the presence of an acid, such as dilute hydrochloric acid. Generally, reduction of the nitro group by catalytic hydrogenation is preferred. Typically, this reaction is conducted using about 1 to 4 atmospheres of hydrogen and a platinum or palladium catalyst, such as palladium on carbon. The reaction is typically carried out at a temperature of about 0°C to about 100°C for about 1 to 24 hours in an inert solvent, such as ethanol, ethyl acetate and the like. Hydrogenation of aromatic nitro groups is discussed in further detail in, for example, P. N. Rylander, Catalytic Hydrogenation in Organic Synthesis , pp. 113-137, Academic Press (1979); and Organic Synthesis, Collective Vol . I, Second Edition, pp. 240-241, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. (1941); and references cited therein. Fuel Compositions The poly(oxyalkylene) hydroxy and amino aromatic carbamates of the present invention are useful as additives in hydrocarbon fuels to prevent and control engine deposits, particularly intake valve deposits. The proper concentration of additive necessary to achieve the desired deposit control varies depending upon the type of fuel employed, the type of engine, and the presence of other fuel additives. in general, the concentration of the poly(oxyalkylene) hydroxy and amino aromatic carbamates of this invention in hydrocarbon fuel will range from about 50 to about 2500 parts per million (ppm) by weight, preferably from 75 to 1,000 ppm. When other deposit control additives are present, a lesser amount of the present additive may be used. The poly(oxyalkylene) hydroxy and amino aromatic carbamates of the present invention may be formulated as a concentrate using an inert stable oleophilic (i.e., dissolves in gasoline) organic solvent boiling in the range of about 150°F to 400°F (about 65°C to 205°C) . Preferably, an aliphatic or an aromatic hydrocarbon solvent is used, such as benzene, toluene, xylene or higher-boiling aromatics or aromatic thinners. Aliphatic alcohols containing about 3 to 8 carbon atoms, such as isopropanol, isobutylcarbinol, n-butanol and the like, in combination with hydrocarbon solvents are also suitable for use with the present additives. In the concentrate, the amount of the additive will generally range from about 10 to about 70 weight percent, preferably 10 to 50 weight percent, more preferably from 20 to 40 weight percent. in gasoline fuels, other fuel additives may be employed with the additives of the present invention, including, for example, oxygenates, such as t-butyl methyl ether, antiknock agents, such as methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl, and other dispersants/detergents, such as hydrocarbyl amines, hydrocarbyl poly(oxyalkylene) amines, or succinimides. Additionally, antioxidants, metal deactivators and demulsifiers may be present. in diesel fuels, other well-known additives can be employed, such as pour point depressants, flow improvers, cetane improvers, and the like. A fuel-soluble, nonvolatile carrier fluid or oil may also be used with the poly(oxyalkylene) hydroxy and amino aromatic carbamates of this invention. The carrier fluid is a chemically inert hydrocarbon-soluble liquid vehicle which substantially increases the nonvolatile residue (NVR) , or solvent-free liquid fraction of the fuel additive composition while not overwhelmingly contributing to octane requirement increase. The carrier fluid may be a natural or synthetic oil, such as mineral oil, refined petroleum oils, synthetic polyalkanes and alkenes, including hydrogenated and unhydrogenated polyalphaolefins, and synthetic polyoxyalkylene-derived oils, such as those described, for example, in U.S. Patent No. 4,191,537 to Lewis, and polyesters, such as those described, for example, in U.S. Patent Nos. 3,756,793 and 5,004,478 to Robinson and Vogel et al. , respectively, and in European Patent Application Nos. 356,726 and 382,159, published March 7, 1990 and August 16, 1990, respectively. These carrier fluids are believed to act as a carrier for the fuel additives of the present invention and to assist in removing and retarding deposits. The carrier fluid may also exhibit synergistic deposit control properties when used in combination with a poly(oxyalkylene) aromatic carbamate of this invention. The carrier fluids are typically employed in amounts ranging from about 100 to about 5000 ppm by weight of the hydrocarbon fuel, preferably from 400 to 3000 ppm of the fuel. Preferably, the ratio of carrier fluid to deposit control additive will range from about 0.5:1 to about 10:1, more preferably from 1:1 to 4:1, most preferably about 2:1. When employed in a fuel concentrate, carrier fluids will generally be present in amounts ranging from about 20 to about 60 weight percent, preferably from 30 to 50 weight percent.
