Description:
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION(S) 
     This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 15/756,782 filed on Mar. 1, 2018, now U.S. Pat. No. 10,662,390 dated May 26, 2020, which is a national phase entry of International Application No. PCT/US2016/050149, filed on Sep. 2, 2016, which claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62/213,241, filed on Sep. 2, 2015. The contents of these applications are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety. 
    
    
     FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE 
     This disclosure generally relates to a lubricant composition. More specifically, the lubricant composition includes a particular antioxidant that includes an electron donating group. 
     BACKGROUND 
     Lubricant compositions are generally well known in the art and are broadly categorized as oil or water based compositions, i.e., compositions that include large weight percentages of non-polar compounds (such as (base) oils) or large weight percentages of water, respectively. Lubricant compositions are typically further categorized as engine oils, driveline system oils, gear oils, greases, automatic and manual transmission fluids and oils, hydraulic oils, industrial gear oils, turbine oils, rust and oxidation (R&amp;O) inhibited oils, compressor oils, or paper machine oils, etc. Each of these compositions has particular specifications and design requirements and most are designed to minimize corrosion and wear, to resist thermal and physical breakdown, and to be able to minimize the effects of common contaminants such as oxidizing compounds and metal fragments. 
     Antioxidants are compounds that can retard oxidation, and thus are useful as additives in such lubricant compositions. Antioxidants are commonly utilized in lubricant compositions to assist in reducing unwanted oxidation and increasing performance standards. Combustion engine lubricants oxidize readily at the high operating temperatures of an engine, and in turn, have diminished lubricating capacity as the viscosity of the lubricant increases. Oxidation products also tend to accumulate to form deposits, which in turn leads to greater wear on engine parts. For example, peroxyl radicals can lead to formation of radical chains and ultimately oxidative degradation. Antioxidants are used to react with such radicals, shorten radical chains, and reduce degradation. Unfortunately, many antioxidants do not react as fast as would be desired. Therefore, remains an opportunity for development of improved antioxidants. 
     SUMMARY OF THE DISCLOSURE 
     This disclosure provides a lubricant composition that includes a base oil present in an amount of greater than 70 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the lubricant composition and also includes an antioxidant. The antioxidant has the structure: 
                         
wherein each X is independently C-A or N, so long as at least one X is N but no more than two of X are N. Moreover, A is H, cyano or an electron donating group that: (1) has an atom having at least one lone pair of electrons that is bonded directly to the aromatic ring; or (2) is an aryl group or alkyl group. Further, each R is independently H, an alkyl group, or aryl group and each R′ is independently an alkyl group or an aryl group.
 
    
    
     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE DISCLOSURE 
     The present disclosure provides a lubricant composition. In various embodiments, the lubricant composition can be further described as a fully formulated lubricant or alternatively as an engine oil, a driveline system oil, a gear oil, a grease, an automatic and/or manual transmission fluid and/or oil, a hydraulic oil, an industrial gear oil, a turbine oil, a rust and oxidation (R&amp;O) inhibited oil, a compressor oil, a paper machine oil, and/or combinations thereof. 
     In one embodiment, the terminology “fully formulated lubricant” refers to a total final composition that is a final commercial oil. This final commercial oil may include, for instance, detergents, dispersants, antioxidants, antifoam additives, pour point depressants, viscosity index improvers, anti-wear additives, friction modifiers, and other customary additives, depending on the formulation application. In the art, engine oils may be referred to as including a base oil as described below and performance additives. The lubricant composition of this disclosure includes a base oil and a particular antioxidant and may include any one or more of the aforementioned additives. 
     Base Oil: 
     The base oil is not particularly limited and may be further defined as including one or more oils of lubricating viscosity such as natural and synthetic lubricating or base oils and mixtures thereof. In one embodiment, the base oil is further defined as a lubricant. In another embodiment, the base oil is further defined as an oil of lubricating viscosity. In still another embodiment, the base oil is further defined as a crankcase lubricating oil for spark-ignited and compression ignited internal combustion engines, including automobile and truck engines, two-cycle engines, aviation piston engines, and marine and railroad diesel engines. Alternatively, the base oil can be further defined as an oil to be used in gas engines, stationary power engines, and turbines. The base oil may be further defined as a heavy or light duty engine oil. In one embodiment, the base oil is further defined as a heavy duty diesel engine oil. Alternatively, the base oil may be described as an oil of lubricating viscosity or lubricating oil, for instance as disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 6,787,663 and U.S. 2007/0197407, each of which is expressly incorporated herein by reference in one or more non-limiting embodiments. Alternatively, the base oil may be used in or as an engine oil, driveline system oil, gear oil, grease, automatic and manual transmission fluid or oil, hydraulic oil, industrial gear oil, turbine oil, rust and oxidation (R&amp;O) inhibited oil, compressor oil, or paper machine oil, etc. 
     The base oil may be further defined as a base stock oil. Alternatively, the base oil may be further defined as a component that is produced by a single manufacturer to the same specifications (independent of feed source or manufacturer&#39;s location) that meets the same manufacturer&#39;s specification and that is identified by a unique formula, product identification number, or both. The base oil may be manufactured or derived using a variety of different processes including but not limited to distillation, solvent refining, hydrogen processing, oligomerization, esterification, and re-refining. Re-refined stock is typically substantially free from materials introduced through manufacturing, contamination, or previous use. In one embodiment, the base oil is further defined as a base stock slate, as is known in the art. 
     Alternatively, the base oil may be derived from hydrocracking, hydrogenation, hydrofinishing, refined and re-refined oils or mixtures thereof or may include one or more such oils. In one embodiment, the base oil is further defined as an oil of lubricating viscosity such as a natural or synthetic oil and/or combinations thereof. Natural oils include, but are not limited to, animal oils and vegetable oils (e.g., castor oil, lard oil) as well as liquid petroleum oils and solvent-treated or acid-treated mineral lubricating oils such as paraffinic, naphthenic or mixed paraffinic-naphthenic oils. 
     In various other embodiments, the base oil may be further defined as an oil derived from coal or shale. Non-limiting examples of suitable oils include hydrocarbon oils such as polymerized and interpolymerized olefins (e.g., polybutylenes, polypropylenes, propylene-isobutylene copolymers, poly(1-hexenes), poly(1-octenes), poly(1-decenes), and mixtures thereof: alkylbenzenes (e.g., dodecylbenzenes, tetradecylbenzenes, dinonylbenzenes, and di(2-ethylhexyl)-benzenes); polyphenyls (e.g., biphenyls, terphenyls, and alkylated polyphenyls), alkylated diphenyl ethers and alkylated diphenyl sulfides and the derivatives, analogs, and homologs thereof. 
     In still other embodiments, the base oil may be further defined as a synthetic oil which may include one or more alkylene oxide polymers and interpolymers and derivatives thereof wherein terminal hydroxyl groups are modified by esterification, etherification, or similar reactions. Typically, these synthetic oils are prepared through polymerization of ethylene oxide or propylene oxide to form polyoxyalkylene polymers which can be further reacted to form the oils. For example, alkyl and aryl ethers of these polyoxyalkylene polymers (e.g., methylpolyisopropylene glycol ether having a weight average weight average molecular weight of 1.000; diphenyl ether of polyethylene glycol having a weight average molecular weight of 500-1,000; and diethyl ether of polypropylene glycol having a weight average molecular weight of 1.000-1.500) and/or mono- and polycarboxylic esters thereof (e.g. acetic acid esters, mixed C 3 -C 8  fatty acid esters, or the C 13  oxo acid diester of tetraethylene glycol) may also be utilized. 
     In even further embodiments, the base oil may include esters of dicarboxylic acids (e.g., phthalic acid, succinic acid, alkyl succinic acids and alkenyl succinic acids, maleic acid, azelaic acid, suberic acid, sebacic acid, fumaric acid, adipic acid, linoleic acid dimer, malonic acid, alkyl malonic acids, and alkenyl malonic acids) with a variety of alcohols (e.g., butyl alcohol, hexyl alcohol, dodecyl alcohol, 2-ethylhexyl alcohol, ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol monoether, and propylene glycol). Specific examples of these esters include, but are not limited to, dibutyl adipate, di(2-ethylhexyl sebacate, di-n-hexyl fumarate, dioctyl sebacate, diisooctyl azelate, diisodecyl azelate, dioctyl phthalate, didecyl phthalate, dieicosyl sebacate, the 2-ethylhexyl diester of linoleic acid dimer, the complex ester formed by reacting one mole of sebacic acid with two moles of tetraethylene glycol and two moles of 2-ethylhexanoic acid, and combinations thereof. Esters useful as the base oil or as included in the base oil also include those formed from C 5  to C 12  monocarboxylic acids and polyols and polyol ethers such as neopentyl glycol, trimethylolpropane, pentaerythritol, dipentaerythritol, and tripentaerythritol. 
     The base oil may be alternatively described as a refined and/or re-refined oil, or combinations thereof. Unrefined oils are typically obtained from a natural or synthetic source without further purification treatment. For example, a shale oil obtained directly from retorting operations, a petroleum oil obtained directly from distillation, or an ester oil obtained directly from an esterification process and used without further treatment, could all be utilized in this disclosure. Refined oils are similar to the unrefined oils except that they typically have undergone purification to improve one or more properties. Many such purification techniques are known to those of skill in the art such as solvent extraction, acid or base extraction, filtration, percolation, and similar purification techniques. Re-refined oils are also known as reclaimed or reprocessed oils and often are additionally processed by techniques directed to removal of spent additives and oil breakdown products. 
     The base oil may alternatively be described as specified in the American Petroleum Institute (API) Base Oil Interchangeability Guidelines. In other words, the base oil may be further described as one or a combination of more than one of five base oil groups: Group I (sulfur content &gt;0.03 wt %, and/or &lt;90 wt % saturates, viscosity index 80-120); Group II (sulfur content less than or equal to 0.03 wt %, and greater than or equal to 90 wt % saturates, viscosity index 80-120); Group III (sulfur content less than or equal to 0.03 wt %, and greater than or equal to 90 wt % saturates, viscosity index greater than or equal to 120); Group IV (all polyalphaolefins (PAO&#39;s)): and Group V (all others not included in Groups I, II, III, or IV). In one embodiment, the base oil is chosen from API Group I, II, III, IV, V and combinations thereof. In another embodiment, the base oil is chosen from API Group II, III, IV, and combinations thereof. In still another embodiment, the base oil is further defined as an API Group II, III, or IV oil and includes a maximum of about 49.9 wt %, typically up to a maximum of about 40 wt %, more typically up to a maximum of about 30 wt %, even more typically up to a maximum of about 20 wt %, even more typically up to a maximum of about 10 wt % and even more typically up to a maximum of about 5 wt % of the lubricating oil an API Group I or V oil. It is also contemplated that Group II and Group II basestocks prepared by hydrotreatment, hydrofinishing, hydroisomerization or other hydrogenative upgrading processes may be included in the API Group II described above. Moreover, the base oil may include Fisher Tropsch or gas to liquid GTL oils. These are disclosed for example in U.S. 2008/0076687, which is expressly incorporated herein by reference in one or more non-limiting embodiments. 
     The base oil is typically present in the composition in an amount of from 70 to 99.9, from 80 to 99.9, from 90 to 99.9, from 75 to 95, from 80 to 90, or from 85 to 95, parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the composition. Alternatively, the base oil may be present in amounts of greater than 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, or 99, parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the composition. In various embodiments, the amount of lubricating oil in a fully formulated lubricant (including diluent or carrier oils presents) is from about 80 to about 99.5 percent by weight, for example, from about 85 to about 96 percent by weight, for instance from about 90 to about 95 percent by weight. Of course, the weight, percent of the base oil may be any value or range of values, both whole and fractional, within those ranges and values described above and/or may vary from the values and/or range of values above by ±5%, ±10%, ±15%, ±20%, ±25%, ±30%, etc. 
     Antioxidant: 
     The lubricant composition also includes an antioxidant. One or more of such antioxidants can be used. The antioxidant has the structure: 
                         
wherein each X is independently C-A or N, i.e., a carbon atom bonded to an “A” group or a nitrogen atom (N), so long as at least one X is N. However, no more than two of X are N. Moreover, A is H (i.e., a hydrogen atom), a cyano group or an electron donating group that: (1) has an atom having at least one lone pair of electrons that is bonded directly to the aromatic ring: or (2) is an aryl group or alkyl group. Further, each R is independently H, an alkyl group, or aryl group and each R′ is independently an alkyl group or an aryl group.
 
     In other embodiments, the antioxidant has the structure: 
                         
wherein each X is independently CH or N, so long as at least one X is N and wherein A is an electron donating group. The electron donating group (1) has an atom having at least one lone pair of electrons that is bonded directly to the aromatic ring or (2) is an aryl group or alkyl group. Moreover, each R is independently an alkyl group or aryl group which may be any known in the art.
 
     The terminology “aryl” group describes any functional group or substituent derived from an aromatic ring, e.g. phenyl, naphthyl, thienyl, indolyl, etc. The alkyl group may be linear, branched, or cyclic and typically includes 1 to 20 carbon atoms. The alkyl group may include more than 20 carbon atoms. In various embodiments, the alkyl group includes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, or 20 carbon atoms or any range thereof. The alkyl group may be further defined as an alkane, an alkene, or an alkane. The alkyl group may be alternatively described using the formula C n H 2n+1  wherein n is 1 to 20, as described above. In various embodiments, the alkyl group may be described as methyl, ethyl propyl, butyl, t-butyl, pentyl, hexyl, octyl, nonyl, or any isomer thereof. 
     In various embodiments, the antioxidant has the structure: 
                         
Examples of additional embodiments are as follows:
 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     When one or more carbon atoms within the aromatic ring of the antioxidant is replaced with nitrogen, the resulting compounds may have improved estimated activation enthalpies (ΔH*) for reactions with peroxyl radicals, while also maintaining a relatively high estimated ionization enthalpy (ΔH&lt;ioη&gt;) which reflects their stability in air, as compared to the same compounds without the substitution of the nitrogen for carbon. Substitution of nitrogen atoms may produce an increase in the ionization enthalpy (ΔH′ oη ), thus stabilizing the compound to one-electron oxidation (such as by reaction with O 2  in air or hydroperoxides arising from hydrocarbon oxidation). This stability may permit substitution with electron-donating groups to increase reactivities as radical-trapping antioxidants by lowering the activation enthalpy (ΔH*) for reactions with peroxyl radicals. 
     The electron donating group (1) has an atom having at least one lone pair of electrons that is bonded directly to the aromatic ring of the antioxidant or (2) is an aryl group or alkyl group. The electron donating group can be alternatively described as an “EDG”, as is appreciated in the art. In various embodiments, the electron donating group has an atom, such a nitrogen atom, a phosphorous atom, an oxygen atom or a sulfur atom, that has at least one lone pair of electrons. For example, oxygen and sulfur each typically have two lone pairs of electrons while nitrogen and phosphorous each typically have only one lone pair of electrons. The terminology “lone pair” describes a pair of valence electrons that are not shared with other atoms and/or are not used in chemical bonding. These electrons may also be described as a non-bonding pair of electrons. Lone pair electrons are found in the outermost electron shell of atoms. The number of lone pair electrons plus the number of bonding electrons equals the total number of valence electrons around an atom. Examples of atoms having at least one lone pair of electrons that is bonded directly to the aromatic ring of the antioxidant are as follows: 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     The electron donating group can alternatively be an aryl group or alkyl group. The terminology “aryl” group describes any functional group or substituent derived from an aromatic ring, e.g. phenyl, naphthyl, thienyl, indolyl, etc. The alkyl group may be linear, branched, or cyclic and typically includes 1 to 20 carbon atoms. Although, the alkyl group may include more than 20 carbon atoms. In various embodiments, the alkyl group includes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, or 20 carbon atoms or any range thereof. The alkyl group may be further defined as an alkane, an alkene, or an alkane. The alkyl group may be alternatively described using the formula C n H 2n+1  wherein n is 1 to 20, as described above. In various embodiments, the alkyl group may be described as methyl, ethyl propyl, butyl, t-butyl, pentyl, hexyl, octyl, nonyl, or any isomer thereof. 
     In other embodiments, the electron donating group is —NR″ 2 , —NH 2 , —OH, —OR″, —NHCOR″, or —OCOR″, wherein each R″ is independently an alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, as described above. For example, the electron donating group may be —NR″ 2 , wherein each R″ is independently an alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, as described above. In another embodiment, the electron donating group is —NH 2 . In another embodiment, the electron donating group is —OH. In a further embodiment, the electron donating group is —OR″, wherein R″ is an alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, as described above. In a further embodiment, the electron donating group is —NHCOR″, wherein R″ is an alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, as described above. In another embodiment, the electron donating group is —OCOR″. wherein R″ is an alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, as described above. Non-limiting examples of structures corresponding to such embodiments are set forth below: 
                                           
In various non-limiting embodiments, analogs of the each of the aforementioned structures wherein one, two, or three of the methyl groups are each independent R, as described above, are expressly contemplated.
 
     In other embodiments, the electron donating group may be described as aromatic or aliphatic. In still other embodiments, the electron donating group includes or is a hydrocarbon group, an alkoxy group (OR 3 ), an amine group, a monosubstituted amine group (NHR 3 ), or a disubstituted amine group (NR 3   2 ). In other embodiments, the electron donating group may be a diallyl amine. The electron-donating strength of the alkoxy or amine group comes largely from the lone pairs of electrons on the O and N atoms, respectively, such that each of R 3  groups can be a hydrogen or a saturated or unsaturated branched or straight chain hydrocarbon moiety and/or may include one or more cycloaliphatic groups and/or one or more aromatic hydrocarbons, or a combination thereof, while not detracting from the electron donating characteristic of the alkoxy or amine group. In such embodiments, the term “cycloaliphatic” describes a saturated or unsaturated carbocyclic moiety comprising mono- or bicyclic rings. Cycloaliphatic groups typically include a 3- to 7-membered saturated carbocyclic moiety. Examples of cycloaliphatic moieties include, but are not limited to, cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, cyclohepyl, and the like, including partially unsaturated derivatives thereof such as cyclohexenyl, cyclopentenyl, and the like. Alternatively, the term “hydrocarbon group” may describe a hydrocarbon including from 1 to 20 carbon atoms, e.g. as described above, and includes saturated or unsaturated, branched or straight chain hydrocarbon moieties, including aliphatic moieties and/or one or more cycloaliphatic groups and/or one or more aromatic hydrocarbons, or a combination thereof. 
     The electron donating group may alternatively be a thiol, sulfide, thioether, or thioester (e.g. wherein the sulfur atom of the group is adjacent to the group being donated into). Alternatively, the electron donating group may be a phosphane. 
     In still other embodiments, the antioxidant has the following structure: 
                                                             
In addition, combinations of any one or more of the aforementioned antioxidants may be utilized.

In various embodiments, the antioxidant is present in an amount of from of from 0.1 to 2, 0.5 to 2, 1 to 2, or 1.5 to 2, parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the lubricant composition. Of course, the weight percent of the antioxidant may be any value or range of values, both whole and fractional, within those ranges and values described above and/or may be present in amounts that vary from the values and/or range of values above by ±5%, ±10%, ±15%, ±20%, ±25%, ±30%, etc. 
     Additives: 
     The composition can additionally include one or more additives to improve various chemical and/or physical properties. Non-limiting examples of the one or more additives include anti-wear additives, metal passivators, rust inhibitors, viscosity index improvers, pour point depressors, dispersants, detergents, and antifriction additives. One or more of the additives may be ash-including or ash-less. 
     Anti-Wear Additive: 
     The anti-wear additive is not particularly limited and may be any known in the art. In one embodiment, the anti-wear additive is selected from the group of ZDDP, zinc dialkyl-dithio phosphates, and combinations thereof. Alternatively, the anti-wear additive may include sulfur- and/or phosphorus- and/or halogen-including compounds, e.g. sulfurised olefins and vegetable oils, zinc dialkyldithiophosphates, alkylated triphenyl phosphates, tritolyl phosphate, tricresyl phosphate, chlorinated paraffins, alkyl and aryl di- and trisulfides, amine salts of mono- and dialkyl phosphates, amine salts of methylphosphonic acid, diethanolaminomethyltolyltriazole, bis(2-ethylhexyl)aminomethyltolyltriazole, derivatives of 2,5-dimercapto-1,3,4-thiadiazole, ethyl 3-[(diisopropoxyphosphinothioyl)thiol propionate, triphenyl thiophosphate (triphenylphosphorothioate), tris(alkylphenyl) phosphorothioate and mixtures thereof (for example tris(isononylphenyl) phosphorothioate), diphenyl monononylphenyl phosphorothioate, isobutylphenyl diphenyl phosphorothioate, the dodecylamine salt of 3-hydroxy-1,3-thiaphosphetane 3-oxide, trithiophosphoric acid 5,5,5-tris[isooctyl 2-acetate], derivatives of 2-mercaptobenzothiazole such as N,N-bis(2-ethylhexyl)aminomethyl]-2-mercapto-1H-1,3-benzothiazole, ethoxycarbonyl-5-octyldithiocarbamate, and/or combinations thereof. In one embodiment, the anti-wear additive include phosphorous and sulfur, e.g. in phosphorothionates and/or dithiophosphate esters. 
     The anti-wear additive is typically present in the composition in an amount of from 0.1 to 20, from 0.5 to 15, from 1 to 10, from 5 to 10, from 5 to 15, from 5 to 20, from 0.1 to 1, from 0.1 to 0.5, or from 0.1 to 1.5, parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the composition.

     EXAMPLES 
     An example of the antioxidant of this disclosure can be formed as follows: 
     Example 1 
     In a dry flask 5-amino-N,N-dioctylaminopyrimidine and a catalytic amount of iodine are mixed with acetone as a solvent. The resultant reaction mixture is heated until complete. Upon completion of the reaction, the mixture is cooled and the product is isolated. 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     Example 2 
     1,2-dihydro-6-methoxy-2,2,4-trimethyl-1,5-naphthyridine: In a 1 L 3 neck round bottom flask equipped with a reflux condenser connected to a nitrogen gas source, a thermocouple, and a magnetic stir bar was dissolved 52.48 g of 5-amino-2-methoxypyridine in 500 mL of acetone. To the resultant solution was added 6.8 g of iodine. The resultant mixture was stirred under a nitrogen atmosphere and heated at reflux, internal measured reaction temperature was 60° C. After 14 hr of heating the resultant mixture was cooled to ambient temperature and concentrated under vacuum to give a dark viscous crude oil. The crude reaction mixture was dissolved into dichloromethane and passed through a short column of silica gel eluting with dichloromethane to afford 69 g (80% yield) of 1,2-dihydro-6-methoxy-2,2,4-trimethyl-1,5-naphthyridine as a yellow oil.  1 H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl 3 ): δ 1.26 (s, 6H), 2.05 (s, 3H), 3.4 (s, 1H), 3.86 (s, 3H), 5.49 (s, 1H), 6.4 (d, 1H), 6.7 (d, 1H). This reaction is also set forth visually below: 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     Example 3 
     6-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2,2,4-trimethyl-1,5-naphthyridine: In a 600 mL pressure bottle equipped with a magnetic stir bar was dissolved 10 g of 1,2-dihydro-6-methoxy-2,2,4-trimethyl-1,5-naphthyridine in 30 mL of ethanol. To the resultant solution was added 0.75 g of 10% Pd on carbon as a catalyst using an additional 25 mL of ethanol to ensure complete transfer of the catalyst to the flask. The resultant mixture was purged with nitrogen and was reacted under a hydrogen pressure of 20 to 40 psi until no further hydrogen was absorbed. The reaction mixture was purged with nitrogen and the catalyst removed by filtration. The filtrate was concentrated under vacuum to afford 9.93 g (98% yield) of 6-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2,2,4-trimethyl-1,5-naphthyridine as a light amber oil.  1 H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl 3 ): δ 1.17 (s, 3H), 1.24 (s, 3H), 1.39 (d, 3H), 1.5 (t, 1H), 1.84 (dd, 1H), 2.93 (m, 1H), 3.05 (s, 1H), 3.87 (s, 3H), 6.41 (d, 1H), 6.76 (d, 1H), MS: m/z=207 (M)′.

     All combinations of the aforementioned embodiments throughout the entire disclosure are hereby expressly contemplated in one or more non-limiting embodiments even if such a disclosure is not described verbatim in a single paragraph or section above. In other words, an expressly contemplated embodiment may include any one or more elements described above selected and combined from any portion of the disclosure. 
     One or more of the values described above may vary by ±5%, ±10%, ±15%, ±20%, ±25%, etc. so long as the variance remains within the scope of the disclosure. Unexpected results may be obtained from each member of a Markush group independent from all other members. Each member may be relied upon individually and or in combination and provides adequate support for specific embodiments within the scope of the appended claims. The subject matter of all combinations of independent and dependent claims, both singly and multiply dependent, is herein expressly contemplated. The disclosure is illustrative including words of description rather than of limitation. Many modifications and variations of the present disclosure are possible in light of the above teachings, and the disclosure may be practiced otherwise than as specifically described herein. 
     It is also to be understood that any ranges and subranges relied upon in describing various embodiments of the present disclosure independently and collectively fall within the scope of the appended claims, and are understood to describe and contemplate all ranges including whole and/or fractional values therein, even if such values are not expressly written herein. One of skill in the art readily recognizes that the enumerated ranges and subranges sufficiently describe and enable various embodiments of the present disclosure, and such ranges and subranges may be further delineated into relevant halves, thirds, quarters, fifths, and so on. As just one example, a range “of from 0.1 to 0.9” may be further delineated into a lower third, i.e. from 0.1 to 0.3, a middle third, i.e. from 0.4 to 0.6, and an upper third, i.e. from 0.7 to 0.9, which individually and collectively are within the scope of the appended claims, and may be relied upon individually and/or collectively and provide adequate support for specific embodiments within the scope of the appended claims. In addition, with respect to the language which defines or modifies a range, such as “at least,” “greater than,” “less than,” “no more than,” and the like, it is to be understood that such language includes subranges and/or an upper or lower limit. As another example, a range of “at least 10” inherently includes a subrange of from at least 10 to 35, a subrange of from at least 10 to 25, a subrange of from 25 to 35, and so on, and each subrange may be relied upon individually and/or collectively and provides adequate support for specific embodiments within the scope of the appended claims. Finally, an individual number within a disclosed range may be relied upon and provides adequate support for specific embodiments within the scope of the appended claims. For example, a range “of from 1 to 9” includes various individual integers, such as 3, as well as individual numbers including a decimal point (or fraction), such as 4.1, which may be relied upon and provide adequate support for specific embodiments within the scope of the appended claims.
