This application is a divisional of application Ser. No. 08/694,046 filed Aug. 7, 1996 now U.S. Pat. No. 5,840,920, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated herein by reference.
This invention relates to a process for preparing compositions which are useful as intermediates for the preparation of low chlorine containing additives for lubricating oils and normally liquid fuels, compounds prepared by the process, and coupled lactone compounds.
Numerous types of additives are used to improve lubricating oil and fuel compositions. Such additives include, but are certainly not limited to dispersants and detergents of the ashless and ash-containing variety, oxidation inhibitors, anti-wear additives, friction modifiers, and the like. Such materials are well known in the art and are described in many publications, for example, Smalheer, et al, �Lubricant Additives�, Lezius-Hiles Co., Cleveland, Ohio, USA (1967); M. W. Ranney, Ed., �Lubricant Additives�, Noyes Data Corp., Park Ridge, N.J., USA (1973); M. J. Satriana, Ed., �Synthetic Oils and Lubricant Additives, Advances since 1979, Noyes Data Corp., Park Ridge N.J., USA (1982), W. C. Gergel, �Lubricant Additive Chemistry�, Publication 694-320-65R1 of The Lubrizol Corp., Wickliffe, Ohio, USA (1994); and W. C. Gergel et al, �Lubrication Theory and Practice� Publication 794-320-59R3 of The Lubrizol Corp., Wickliffe, Ohio, USA (1994); and in numerous United States patents, for example Chamberlin, III, U.S. Pat. No 4,326,972, Schroeck et al, U.S. Pat. No. 4,904,401, and Ripple et al, U.S. Pat. No. 4,981,602. Many such additives are frequently derived from carboxylic reactants, for example, acids, esters, anhydrides, lactones, and others. Specific examples of commonly used carboxylic compounds used as intermediates for preparing lubricating oil additives include alkyl-and alkenyl substituted succinic acids and anhydrides, polyolefin substituted carboxylic acids, aromatic acids, such as salicylic acids, and others. Illustrative carboxylic compounds are described in Meinhardt, et al, U.S. Pat. No. 4,234,435; Norman et al, U.S. Pat. No. 3,172,892; LeSuer et al, U.S. Pat. No. 3,454,607, and Rense, U.S. Pat. No. 3,215,707.
Many carboxylic intermediates used in the preparation of lubricating oil additives contain chlorine. While the amount of chlorine present is often only a very small amount of the total weight of the intermediate, the chlorine frequently is carried over into the carboxylic derivative which is desired as an additive. For a variety of reasons, including government regulation, environmental concerns, and commercial reasons the industry has been making efforts to reduce or to eliminate chlorine from additives designed for use as lubricant or fuel additives.
The present invention provides a method for preparing compounds which meet this requirement.
B. B. Snider and J. W. van Straten, J. Org. Chem., 44, 3567-3571 (1979) describes certain products prepared by the reaction of methyl glyoxylate with several butenes and cyclohexenes. K. Mikami and M. Shimizu, Chem. Rev., 92, 1021-1050 (1992) describe carbonyl-ene reactions, including glyoxylate-ene reactions. D. Savostianov (communicated by P.Pascal), C.R. Acad. Sc. Paris, 263, (605-7) (1966) relates to preparation of some α-hydroxylactones via the action of glyoxylic acid on olefins. M. Kerfanto et. al., C.R. Acad. Sc. Paris, 264, (232-5) (1967) relates to condensation reactions of α-α-di-(N-morpholino)-acetic acid and glyoxylic acid with olefins.
The present invention relates to a process for preparing compounds useful as intermediates for preparing performance improving additives for lubricants and fuels which comprises reacting, optionally in the presence of an acidic catalyst selected from the group consisting of organic sulfonic acids, heteropolyacids, and mineral acids,
(R1)(R2)C═C(R6)(CH(R7)(R8)) wherein each of R1 and R2 is, independently, hydrogen or a hydrocarbon based group and each of R6, R7 and R8 is, independently, hydrogen or a hydrocarbon based group;
R3C(O)(R4)nC(O)OR5 (IV) and compounds of the formula wherein each of R3, R5 and each R9 is independently H or a hydrocarbyl group, R4 is a divalent hydrocarbylene group, and n is 0 or 1 in amounts ranging from 0.6 moles (B) per mole of (A) to 1.5 moles (B) per equivalent of (A); and from about 0.5 to about 2 moles, per mole of (B), of
as well as products obtained by the process of the invention.
As used herein, the terms �hydrocarbon�, �hydrocarbyl� or �hydrocarbon based� mean that the group being described has predominantly hydrocarbon character within the context of this invention. These include groups that are purely hydrocarbon in nature, that is, they contain only carbon and hydrogen. They may also include groups containing non-hydrocarbon substituents or atoms which do not alter the predominantly hydrocarbon character of the group. Such substituents may include alkoxy-, nitro-, etc. These groups also may contain hetero atoms. Suitable hetero atoms will be apparent to those skilled in the art and include, for example, sulfur, nitrogen and oxygen. Therefore, while remaining predominantly hydrocarbon in character within the context of this invention, these groups may contain atoms other than carbon present in a chain or ring otherwise composed of carbon atoms.
In general, no more than about three non-hydrocarbon substituents or heteroatoms, and preferably no more than one, will be present for every 10 carbon atoms in the hydrocarbon, hydrocarbyl or hydrocarbon based groups. Most preferably, the groups are purely hydrocarbon in nature, that is they are essentially free of atoms other than carbon and hydrogen.
Throughout the specification and claims the expression soluble or dispersible is used. By soluble or dispersible is meant that an amount needed to provide the desired level of activity or performance can be incorporated by being dissolved, dispersed or suspended in an oil of lubricating viscosity or in a normally liquid fuel. Usually, this means that at least about 0.001% by weight of the material can be incorporated in a lubricating oil or normally liquid fuel. For a further discussion of the terms oil soluble and dispersible, particularly �stably dispersible�, see U.S. Pat. No. 4,320,019 which is expressly incorporated herein by reference for relevant teachings in this regard.
In one embodiment, the present invention relates to a process comprising reacting, optionally in the presence of an acidic catalyst selected from the group consisting of organic sulfonic acids, heteropolyacids, and mineral acids,
(C) at least one aldehyde or ketone.
The process may be conducted in the presence of an azeotroping solvent. Well known azeotroping solvents include toluene, xylene, cyclohexane, etc. Cyclohexane is preferred.
The first step of the process of this invention is optionally conducted in the presence of an acidic catalyst. Acid catalysts, such as organic sulfonic acids, for example, paratoluene sulfonic acid, methane sulfonic acid and sulfonated polymers such as those marketed under the tradename Amberlyst� (Rohm & Haas), heteropolyacids, the complex acids of heavy metals (e.g., Mo, W, Sn, V, Zr, etc.) with phosphoric acids (e.g., phosphomolybdic acid), and mineral acids, for example, H2SO4 and phosphoric acid, are useful. The amount of catalyst used is generally small, ranging from about 0.01 mole % to about 10 mole %, more often from about 0.1 mole % to about 2 mole %, based on moles of olefinic reactant.
The olefinic compound employed as a reactant in the process of this invention contains at least one group of the formula and has the general formula
(R1)(R2)C═C(R6)(CH(R7)(R8)) (III) wherein each of R1 and R2 is, independently, hydrogen or a hydrocarbon based group. Each of R6, R7 and R8 is, independently, hydrogen or a hydrocarbon based group; preferably at least one is a hydrocarbon based group containing at least 7 carbon atoms. These olefinic compounds are diverse in nature.
Virtually any compound containing an olefinic bond may be used provided it meets the general requirements set forth hereinabove for (III) and does not contain any functional groups (e.g., primary or secondary amines) that would interfere with the carboxylic reactant (B). Useful olefinic compounds may be terminal olefins, i.e., olefins having a H2C═C group, or internal olefins. Useful olefinic compounds may have more than one olefinic bond, i.e., they may be dienes, trienes, etc. Most often they are mono-olefinic. Examples include linear αolefins, cis- or trans- disubstituted olefins, trisubstituted olefins and tetrasubstituted olefins.
As used herein, the expression �polyolefin� defines a polymer derived from olefins. The expression �polyolefinic� refers to a compound containing more than one C═C bond.
Among useful compounds are those that are purely hydrocarbon, i.e., those substantially free of non-hydrocarbon groups, or they may contain one or more non-hydrocarbon groups or atoms as discussed in greater detail herein.
In one embodiment, the olefinic compounds are substantially hydrocarbon, that is, each R group in (III) is H or contains essentially carbon and hydrogen. In one aspect within this embodiment, each of R1, R2, R7 and R8 is hydrogen and R6 is a hydrocarbyl group containing from 7 to about 5,000 carbon atoms, more often from about 30 up to about 200 carbon atoms, preferably from about 50 up to about 100 carbon atoms. In another aspect of this embodiment, each of R1 and R2 is hydrogen, R6 is H or a lower alkyl group, usually methyl, and the group (CH(R7)(R8)) is a hydrocarbyl group containing from 7 to about 5,000 carbon atoms, more typically from about 30 up to about 200 carbon atom, preferably from 50 up to about 100 carbon atoms.
As used here, and throughout the specification and claims, the expression �lower� with �alkyl�, �alkenyl�, etc. means groups having 7 or fewer carbon atoms, for example, methyl, ethyl and all isomers of propyl, butyl, pentyl, hexyl and heptyl, ethylene, butylene, etc.
Preferably, the hydrocarbyl groups are aliphatic groups. In one preferred embodiment, when an R group is an aliphatic group containing a total of from about 30 to about 200 carbon atoms, the olefinic compound is derived from homopolymerized and interpolymerized C2-18 mono- and di-olefins, preferably 1-olefins. In a preferred embodiment, the olefins contain from 2 to about 5 carbon atoms, preferably 3 or 4 carbon atoms. Examples of such olefins are ethylene, propylene, butene-1, isobutylene, butadiene, isoprene, 1-hexene, 1-octene, etc. R groups can, however, be derived from other sources, such as monomeric high molecular weight alkenes (e.g. 1-tetracontene), aliphatic petroleum fractions, particularly paraffin waxes and cracked analogs thereof, white oils, synthetic alkenes such as those produced by the Ziegler-Natta process (e.g., poly-(ethylene) greases) and other sources known to those skilled in the art. Any unsaturation in the R groups may be reduced by hydrogenation according to procedures known in the art, provided at least one olefinic group remains as described for (III).
In one preferred embodiment, at least one R is derived from polybutene, that is, polymers of C4 olefins, including 1-butene, 2-butene and isobutylene. Those derived from isobutylene, i.e., polyisobutylenes, are especially preferred. In another preferred embodiment, R is derived from polypropylene. In another preferred embodiment, R is derived from ethylene-alpha olefin polymers, including ethylene-propylene-diene polymers. Representative of such polymers are the ethylene-propylene copolymers and ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymers marketed under the Trilene� tradename by the Uniroyal Company. Molecular weights of such polymers may vary over a wide range, but especially preferred are those having number average molecular weights ({overscore (M)}n) ranging from about 300 to about 20,000, preferably 700 to about 10,000, often from 900 to 2,500. In one preferred embodiment, the olefin is an ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer having {overscore (M)}n ranging from about 900 to about 8,000, often up to about 2,000. Such materials are included among the Trilene� polymers marketed by the Uniroyal Company, Middlebury, Conn., USA and Ortholeum� 2052 marketed by the DuPont Company.
Ethylene-alpha olefin copolymers and ethylene-lower olefin-diene terpolymers are described in numerous patent documents, including European patent publication EP 279,863, Japanese patent publication 87-129,303 and the following U.S. Pat. Nos.

A preferred source of hydrocarbyl groups R are polybutenes obtained by polymerization of a C4 refinery stream having a butene content of 35 to 75 weight percent and isobutylene content of 15 to 60 weight percent in the presence of a Lewis acid catalyst such as aluminum trichloride or boron trifluoride. These polybutenes contain predominantly (greater than 80% of total repeating units) isobutylene repeating units of the configuration These polybutenes are typically monoolefinic, that is they contain but one olefinic bond per molecule.
The olefinic compound may be a polyolefin comprising a mixture of isomers wherein from about 50 percent to about 65 percent are tri-substituted olefins wherein one substituent contains from 2 to about 5000 carbon atoms, often from about 30 to about 200 carbon atoms, more often from about 50 to about 100 carbon atoms, usually aliphatic carbon atoms, and the other two substituents are lower alkyl.
In one embodiment, the monoolefinic groups are predominantly vinylidene groups, i.e., groups of the formula especially those of the formula although the polybutenes may also comprise other olefinic configurations.
Illustrative is a polyolefin comprising a mixture of isomers, at least about 50% by weight of the mixture comprising isomers of the formula
H2C═C(R6)(CH)(R7)(R8)) wherein R6 is H or lower alkyl, preferably methyl.
As is apparent from the foregoing, olefins of a wide variety of type and molecular weight are useful for preparing the compositions of this invention. Useful olefins are usually substantially hydrocarbon and have number average molecular weight ranging from about 100 to about 70,000, more often from about 200 to about 7,000, even more often from about 1,300 to about 5,000, frequently from about 400 to about 3,000. Lower olefins such as those containing from about 7 to about 30 carbon atoms, for example, octenes, octadecenes, mixed olefin, such as C8-28 linear olefins, are useful.
Specific characterization of olefin reactants (A) used in the processes of this invention can be accomplished by using techniques known to those skilled in the art. These techniques include general qualitative analysis by infrared and determinations of average molecular weight, e.g., {overscore (M)}n, number average molecular weight, and {overscore (M)}w, weight average molecular weight, etc. employing vapor phase osmometry (VPO) and gel permeation chromatography (GPC). Structural details can be elucidated employing proton and carbon 13 (C13) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques. NMR is useful for determining substitution characteristics about olefinic bonds, and provides some details regarding the nature of the substituents. More specific details regarding substituents about the olefinic bonds can be obtained by cleaving the substituents from the olefin by, for example, ozonolysis, then analyzing the cleaved products, also by NMR, GPC, VPO, and by infra-red analysis and other techniques known to the skilled person.
R3C(O)(R4)nC(O)OR5 (IV) and compounds of the formula wherein each of R3, R5 and each R9 is independently H or a hydrocarbyl group.
When R5 is hydrocarbyl, it is usually an aliphatic group, often a group containing from 1 to about 30 carbon atoms, often from 8 to about 18 carbon atoms. In another embodiment, R5 is lower alkyl, wherein �lower alkyl� is defined hereinabove, especially from 1 to 4 carbon atoms. Most often, R5 is H or lower alkyl.
R9 is usually H or alkyl, preferably H or lower alkyl.
Reactant (B) may be a compound of the formula wherein each of R3 and R5 is independently H or alkyl. Such compounds arise when reactant (B) is hydrated. Glyoxylic acid monohydrate is a representative example.
The aldehyde or ketone reactant employed in the process of this invention is a carbonyl compound other than a carboxy-substituted carbonyl compound. Accordingly, it is to be understood that it is not contemplated herein that reactant (C) includes any of the species defined hereinabove as reactant (B). Suitable compounds include those having the general formula RC(O)R′, wherein R and R′ are each, independently, H or a hydrocarbyl group as defined hereinabove. As noted in the description, hydrocarbyl groups may contain other groups or heteroatoms which do not interfere with the process and products of this invention. Preferably, reactant (C) contains from 1 to about 12 carbon atoms. Suitable aldehydes include formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, propionaldehyde, butyraldehyde, isobutyraldehyde, pentanal, hexanal, heptaldehyde, octanal, benzaldehyde, and higher aldehydes. Other aldehydes, such as dialdehydes, especially glyoxal, are useful, although monoaldehydes are generally preferred.
The process of this invention is conducted at temperatures ranging from ambient up to the lowest decomposition temperature of any of the reactants, usually from about 60� C. to about 220� C., more often from about 120� C. to about 180� C., preferably up to about 160� C. When the reaction is conducted in the presence of organic sulfonic acid or mineral acid catalyst, the reaction is usually conducted at temperatures up to about 160� C. The process employs from about 0.6 moles of reactant (B) per mole of olefinic compound (A), up to 1.5 moles (B) per equivalent of (A), more often from about 0.8 moles (B) per mole of (A) to about 1.2 moles (B) per equivalent of (A), even more often from about 0.95 moles (B) per mole of (A) to about 1.05 moles (B) per equivalent of (A). Reactant (C) is used in amounts ranging from about 0.5 to about 2 moles per mole of (B), preferably, from about 0.8 to about 1.5 moles per mole of (B), and most often from about 0.9 to about 1.1 moles per mole of (B). As noted herein, many reactants contain water which is removed. Removal of water at moderate temperatures is attainable employing reduced pressure, a solvent that aids in azeotropic distillation of water, or by purging with an inert gas such as N2.
The progress of the reaction can be followed by observing the infra-red spectrum. The absorption for �COOH carbonyl of the products appears at about 1710 cm−1. The total acid number as measured using essentially the procedure in ASTM D-664 (Potentiometric Method) or ASTM D-974 (Color Indicator Method) is useful together with the infared, keeping in mind that non-acidic products (e.g., polyester products), those derived from non-acidic reactants and condensation products such as lactones will not display significant acid numbers.
These procedures appear in the Annual Book of ASTM Standards, Volume 05.01, ASTM, 1916 Race Street, Philadelphia, Pa., USA.
As noted hereinabove, products obtained by the process of this invention are provided. While it appears that the product obtained by the process of this invention is a fairly complex mixture, the mixture is believed to comprise at least one composition comprising a compound of the formula wherein each n=0 or 1; each y=0 or 1;
