NOVEL UNSATURATED PHOSPHORUS CONTAINING CARBOXYLIC ACID
DERIVATIVES
Abstract of the disclosure:
Carboxylic acid derivatives of the formula (I)

Description

The present invention relates to novel unsaturated phos-phorus containing carboxylic acid derivatives.
Unsaturated phosphorus containing carboxylic acid deri-vatives of the formula CH3 ~ 0 0 ~ ( 2)n C I C~2 CH3 Rl where R1 is hydrogen or methyl and n is 1, 2 or 3, are already known (German Offenlegungsschrift No. 2 052 569). They are derivatives of tertiary phosphine oxides which have good flame retarding properties. Starting product for their preparation is generally dimethylchlorophosphine which, simultaneously with methyldichlorophosphine, is obtained in the industrial--scsle process of reacting methyl chloride with phosphorus at abc~t 350C (German Auslegeschrift No. 1 568 928). A similar fl~meproofing application as described above for dimethylch~oro-phosphine is unknown hitherto for methyldichlorophosphine, which makes the above use of dimethylchl.orophosphine unecono-mic.
The present invention now provides novel phosphorus con-taining carboxylic acid derivatives of the formula (I) R X o ~11 11 ~2 ~ -~O-~-C=CH (I) wherein R1 and R2 are alkyl having a to~al of up to 8 carbon atoms, preferably lower alkyl each having from 1 to 4 carbon , . :

, - ` :

HO~ 74lF 302 1~353~90 atoms; R3 is hydrogen or methyl; X is oxygen or sulfur, pre-ferably oxygen; Y is linear or branched alkylene having up to 6, preferably from 1 to 3 carbon atoms.
The present invention provides furthermore a process fDr th~ prep~ration of cnmpollndQ of forml~la (T ~ j whi rh c.omnrl S~S
reacting alcohols of the formula (II) > p _ y - OH (II) wherein R1, R2, X and Y are as defined above, with compounds of the formula ~II) Z - CO - C = CH2 (III) wh~re Z is halogen, perferably chlorine; and R3 is as defined above, in the presence of an inert solvent.
The acylation according to the invention of alcohols of formula (II) with acrylic or methacrylic acid halides of formula (III) is carried out in known manner, preferably in the presence of a hydrogen halide - binding compound, for ex-ample a tertiary amine such as triethylamine or pyridine, at temperatures of from -30 to +100C, preferably from 20 to 70C.
The hydrogen halide-binding compound is used in equimolar amounts relative to the acid halide of formula (III), or in a . slight excess of up to about 10%.
29 It is furthermore preferable to use one of the polymeri--.

~OE 74/F ~02 10536~0 ~ation inhibitors known for acrylic acid derivatives, for example phenothiazine, hydroquinone, hydroquinone-monomethyl ether and/or metal salt inhibitors. The amount of inhibitor is chosen within the usual range, for example from 0.01 to 1 wcight ~-, relat ~e to 'he ccmpo~.d of fc mula (III). The presence of active polymerization inhibitors is important also for the optional distillation work-up of the crude reaction mixture.
The starting compounds of formula (II) and ~II) are gene-rally used in about equimolar amounts; the acid~ halide of formula (III) optionally being in a slight excess of up to 10~. The oonversion of the reactants is carried out with ex-clusion of water.
The reaction is advantageously carried out as follows:
the alcohol of formula (II) and the tertiary amine optionally us~d in the inert solvent are introduced first into the re-actor at room temperature, and the acid chloride of formula (Iï) is added dropwise, while the batch is continuously and thoroughly intermixed, for example by means of an agitator.
The reaction temperature is not critical and may rise within the abovementioned temperature range, that is, up to 100C because of the reaction heat set free during the re-action~and this may be advantageous for the course of the re-action. The starting compounds of formula (II) are easily ob-tainable. For example, hydroxymethyl-alkylphosphinic acid esters are prepared by addition of paraformaldehyde on alkgl-phosphonous acid esters according to the process of German Offenlegungsschrift No. 2 226 406. 2-Hydroxyethyl-alkylphos-29 phinic acid es~rs are obtained with good yields from 2-acetoxy-10536~0 ethyl-alkylphos~hinic acid esters according to the process of German Offenlegungsschrift No. 2 335 852, and 3-hydroxypropyl-alkylphosphinic acid esters may be prepared in analogous manner.
Typical phosphorus containing carboxylic acid derivatives G~ ~ ormula ~I~ a.c for examp e: tho acryl ^ a-~ ~ethacryl~ _ acid esters of methylhydroxymethylphosphinic acid methyl, ethyl, propyl or isobutyl ester; ethyl-hydroxymethylphosphinic acid methyl, ethyl, propyl, or isobutyl ester; methyl-2-hydroxy-ethylphosphinic acid isobutyl ester; methyl-2-hydroxyethyl-thiophosphinic acid isobutyl estér; propyl-2-hydroxyethylphos-phinic acid propyl ester; methyl-(2-hydroxy-2-methylethyl)-phosphinic acid methyl, ethyl,propyl, n-butyl, isobutyl or pentyl ester; methyl-3-hydroxypropylphosphinic acid isobutyl ester; butyl-3-hydroxypropylphosphinic acid isopropyl ester.
As inert solvents there may be used for example those so vents which are usually employed for esterification and/or es~;er interchange, such as benzene, toluene, xylene, chloro-belzene, carbon tetrachloride, chloroform, diisopropyl ether, acetonitrile or mixtures of such compounds. The amount of inert solvent is not critical and depends advantageously on the agitabllity of the reaction batch after complete reaction, in which the hydrogen halide-binding compound optionally used precipitates generally as a hydrohalide in the form of crystals.
Therefore, the inert solvent is generally used in a weight amount of up to 10 times, preferably from 2 to 5 times, that of the alcohol of formula (II). Xylene or toluene are the preferred inert solvents.
Because of their unsaturated carbon-carbon bonds, the 29 novel carboxylic acid derivatives of formula (I) are suitable . . ~
' ~-1~353~90 as monomers or comonomers for the preparation of polymers. For example, by copolymerization with monomers such as acrylic derivatives, styrene or vinyl compounds, flame retarding poly-mers having improved dyeability and antistatic properties are ~ U. C~uiy~e~ n~i~iing ~I acryi~nitriie, vinyi chloride, vinyl bromide and/or vinylidene chloride and compounds of formula (I) have surprisingly good flame retarding proper-ties. Furthermore, filaments and fibers made from these co-polymers have an unexpected high thérmostability, that is, their tendency to yellowi~g under thermal strain is consider-abl~ reduced as compared to the state of the art.
By ester interchange of the phosphinic acid ester groups OR2 (preferably in the case of R2 being alkyl having from 1 to 4 carbon atomsJ especially methyl or ethyl) with glycols such as ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, propylene glycol or higher ~lycols, the polymers obtained may also be cross-link-ed. When using methyldichlorophosphine as starting material, the phosphinic acid esters of formula (I) are more easily ob-tainable than the analogous tertiary phosphine oxides, which require the use of dimethylchlorophosphine as starting sub-stance. Contrary to dimethylchlorophosphine, methyldichloro-phosphine is easily manufactured on an industrial scale, since it may be obtained in known manner and as exclusive product by reaction of methane with PCl3 at 600C.
