4 Claims. (01. 260-608) invention relates to the method of preparing'sulfides of olefin'hydrocarbons, and to the resultingproducts; I Heretofore it has been necessary to use as starting materials olefinic halides for the preparation of olefin sulfides, and in such cases theyields have beenpoor, An objectof this invention is to use the olefin hydrocarbons directly as a starting materlal with resulting good yields of the sulfides. Further, it has been found that the reaction of olefins, with elemental sulfur, in the absence of zinc or similar metal in combination, produces alkyl alkenyl polysulfides rather than dialkenyl sulfides. By a dialkenyl sulfide is meant a monomeric compound consisting of sulfur bonded to two alkenyl groups. They subscribe tothe formula RSn-R where n is a whole number from 1 to 2, and R is an olefinic radical. I Alkenyl is used in the usual sense to refer to a monovalent I radical containing an ethylenic linkage.
The chemicals are prepared by a method which consists in interacting any olefinic hydrocarbon containing from 3 to 12 prising the group with elemental sulfur, in the presence of zinc or similar metal in combination, and a nitrogencontaining compound which belongs totheclass of rubber vulcanization accelerators.
There should be present at least one molecular proportion of zinc or similar metal in combination for each two molecular proportions of the olefin;
an excesstends to minimize undesirable side reactions. The molecular proportion of the sulfur should be at least 1.5 atomic proportions for each molecular proportion of the olefin. The proportion of the nitrogen-containing accelerator need salt may be added as such or formed in situ, as
where zinc oxide is added with the fatty acid. The reaction for preparing disulfide may be represented by the following equation:
R is an aliphatic radical containing from 3 to 17 carbon atoms.
carbon atoms and comtion,
Examples of olefins are propene, the butenes, the amenes,the hexenes, the heptenes, the catches, the nonenes, the decenes, the undecenes; and the dodecenes. W'here morethan one memher is referred to the intentionis to include each member of the class which contains a hydrogen atom attachedi'to the carbon atom which is alpha tothe double bond.v V 1 [Among the? sulfides may be mentioned 6,6'-dithiobis (5- methyl-4-nonene), and 6,6'-thlobis (5,- methylf-Fi-nonene) Z-butenyl monosulfide and d i-. sulfide, and 2-methyl2-butenyl monosulfideand disulfide. f I Q The sulfides of this invention are clear liquids possessing a persistent garlic-like 'odor and may be used as insecticides, fumigants, and as intermediates in the preparation of dyes, pharmaceuticals, resins, etc. Although the reactive form of the zinc in the reaction appears to be the salt of the organic acids of the fatty acid series, such as zinc propionate, zinc stearate, etc., it is possible to substitute zinc oxide for a portion of the zinc salt only to such extent that the rate of the reaction is not impaired so that undesirable side reactions occur. Also, the salt canbe formed in the reaction by introducing the proper amounts of the zinc oxide and of the acid. I a I In place of zinc, othermembers Of the so-called magnesium-zinc family of elements (see page344 of Mellors Modern Inorganic Chemistry," published by Longman, Green &Company, 1922), which family includes besides zinc, cadmium, magnesium, and mercury-may be used in place of the corresponding zinc compounds. I 1 z-mercaptobenzothiazoleland other thiazylsulfides are exemplary of the so-called vulcanization acceleratorswhich are useful in promoting the reaction of sulfur with olefin according to my invention; others, called thiuram sulfides, such as I tetramethyl thiuram sulfide, tetramethyl thiuramdisulfide, and ureas such as ,diphenyh thiourea, and-amines, ,such as dibenzylamine; diphenylguanidine, and triamylamine, as well as other nitrogen-containing accelerators of rubber vulcanization can be used.
