Description

ENAMINE DERIVATIVES FOR USE AS ANTIOXYDANTS FOR POLYIuIERS
The present invention relates to compounds belong-ing to the group of enamines.
More specifically, the present invention relates to compounds belonging to the group of enamines con-sisting of derivatives of Q-keto-esters, or Q-keto-amides or 1,3-diketones with primary or secondary aliphatic or aromatic amines carrying at least one l0 sterically hindered amine group in the molecule, a process for their preparation and their use as artiaxi-dants for organic polymers.
The present invention also relates to the polymer-is compositions stabilized with the above compounds and the end-articles obtained from these compositions.
It is known that organic polymers undergo degrada-tion over a period of time as a result of exposure to atmospheric agents and light and they also easily undergo thermoxidative degradaticn during processing and transformation processes.
The most evident signs of this degradation are, for example, alterations in the mechanical properties of the end-article. To prevent this degradation of the polymeric material, stabilizing compounds are usually introduced into the organic polymers.
The Applicant has now found that compounds belong-ing to the group of enamines consisting of derivatives of ~B-keto-esters, or ,0-keto-amides or 1,3-diketones with primary or secondary, aliphatic or aromatic amines carrying at least one sterically hindered amine group in the molecule, are capable of stabilizing organic polymers to which they are added improving their resistance to thermo-oxidation.
The present invention therefore relates to com-pounds belonging to the group of enamines consisting of derivatives of ~B-keto-esters, or Q-keto-amides or 1,3-diketones with primary or secondary, aliphatic or aromatic amines carrying in the molecule at least one sterically hindered amine group having general formula (I) ,3 Rt--- ( --N--C=CH--C-_ ) m - ~ ~--R' ( I ) wherein:

using an apparatus for the azeotropic distillation, whereas the organic solvent is recycled.
At the end of the reaction, the solvent and possible acetic acid present are removed by distilla-tion thus obtaining a raw product. The desired compound having general formula (I) is purified from the raw product thus obtained by fractionated distillation, operating under vacuum, at a pressure ranging from 0.1 mm/Hg to 50 mm/Hg and a temperature ranging from 40°C

In order to verify the stabilizing activity of the compounds having general formula (I) oz the present invention, differential thermal analysis was used, revealing the time necessary for starting up the oxidation reaction of the system.
F'or this purpose a non-stabilized polyol was used, of the type Glendion FG 3502 sold by EniChem S.p.A., and the stabilizer was added at levels of 0.15%.
The oxygen absorption induction time measurement was carried out on the polyol at a temperature of 130°C
and 140°C under a stream of oxygen. The greater the oxygen absorption induction time, the better is the stabilizing system used.
Proof of the good stabilizing capacity cf the compounds having general formula (I) of the present invention was provided by observing the oxygen absorp-tion induction time of the polyol to which the com-pounds having general formula (I) had been added, compared with the stabilizing capacity of the commer-cial product BHT, corresponding to 2,6-di-t-butyl-4-methylphenol, and with the polyol without stabilizers (see Example 7 below).
In addition, the importance of the molecular structure of the compounds having general formula (I) was demonstrated by comparing with an enamine having the formula (Compound Nr. 5, see Example 5 below):
N ~ N-H
CH
which . lacks the structure of the enamine double bond conjugated with the carbonyl double bond which is present, however, in the above compounds having general formula (I); and with an enamine having the forirula (Compound Nr. 6, see Example 6 below):
2 0 ~ CH3--C=CH--COOCHZCH3 C~8H3~--NH
which lacks the sterically hindered amine group.
Some illustrative but non-limiting examples are provided for a better understanding of the present invention and for its embodiment.

Stabilizing activity test of the Compounds having general formula (I) on polyol.
The oxidation kinetics of the polyol stabilized 10 with Compounds 1-11 prepared as described in Examples 1-11 above, are observed by differential thermal analysis at 130°C and at 140°C.
Inside the measurement capsule, the systems analyzed are brought in 5 minutes to the test tempera-15 ture under nitrogen. Oxygen is then passed (7 ml/h) and the oxidation kinetics are observed in relation to the heat developed during the process. The induction time is calculated in the intersection point with the time axis of the tangent at the oxidation curve at 1 mW as 20 illustrated in Figure 1: the abscissa indicates the time in minutes, the ordinate the trend of the heat developed in mW.
The addition of the polyol is obtained by mixing the polyol with the products to be analyzed, Compounds 25 1-11 and 2,6-di-t-butyl-4-methylphenol (BHT), in a S
quantity equal to 0.15%, the mixture being stirred until complete dissolution of the products used is obtained.
A non-stabilized polyol of the type Glendion FG
3501 produced and sold by EniChem S.p.A., is used as polyol.
Table 1 indicates the induction times in minutes of the oxygen absorption during the thermo-oxidation of the polyol at 130°C and at 140°C.

that, when the compounds having general formula (I), Compounds 1-4 and 7-11, are used, the oxygen absorption induction times in the thermo-oxidation of the polyol are considerably higher than those obtained by using BHT.
In addition, these results show that the com-pounds, such as Compound Nr. 5, in which tetramethylpi-peridine is present but not the enamine double bond conjugated with the carbonyl double bond, they are not capable of stabilizing the polyol. The same result is obtained using Compound Nr. 6 in which there is the enamine double bond conjugated with the carbonyl double bond but not tetramethylpiperidine.
