Primary Examiner-Daniel E. Wyman Assistant Examiner-W.

6 Claims, No Drawings NEW LUBRICATING COMPOSITIONS tions having an unexpectedly increased stability to oxi-- dation.
A known technique for improving the stability of lubricants and particularly motor oils-to oxidation consists of adding antioxidants thereto, said antioxidants being usually zinc dithiophosphates, dithiocarbamates, phenols or amines.
These products have one or more of the following disadvantages:
their antioxidant activity is rather low, particularly in the presence of such metals as iron and copper,
they are affected by temperature increases,
- they produce sludge,
- they are corrosive with respect to certain engine parts, for example the silver bearings.
It has now unexpectedly been found that the thioorganometallic complexes hereafter defined have a high antioxidant activity, even at high temperature and in the presence of metals at high concentrations. These compounds may be used as well with base oils of petroleum origin as with synthetic base oils. They give good anti-wear and extreme pressure properties to the lubricating oils to which they are added. The lubricating compositions of this invention contain at least one thioorganic complex of the formula:
These thioorganometallic complexes are based on the element M which may be tin, antimony, lead, bismuth, zinc, cadmium or a transition metal element, for example chromium, manganese, iron, cobalt, nickel or copper, said element M, at the oxidation degree n, being linked with n coordinates, either identical or different, as hereinafter defined:
R and R are each a monovalent radical which may be a hydrocarbon radical, for example an aliphatic, alicyclic or aromatic radical, or a haloor nitro-derivative thereof. They may contain 1 to 3 heteroatoms such as oxygen, sulfur or nitrogen. They usually contain one to 20 carbon atoms.
Y is a hydrogen atom or a radical R, R'-O-, R'-S or R-CO- in which R is a monovalent hydrocarbon radical of, for example, 1 to 20 carbon atoms.
Y and R or R may form a divalent hydrocarbon radical of one to 20 carbon atoms with to 3 oxygen, sulfur or nitrogen atoms.
Each atom Z may be oxygen or sulfur, provided that at least one Z is sulfur in at least one of the coordinates.
Each coordinate may have twomesomeric forms each having a negative charge:
It may be represented by only one formula:
Methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, sec. butyl, octyl, decyl, do-
decyl, phenyl, benzyl, methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy, methylthio, ethylthio, acetyl, propionyl, phenethyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl and cycloheptyl.
The following compounds are illustrative of the compounds which may be used in this invention: 7
The thioorganic complexes may be manufactured according to known methods, e.g., U. S. patent 3,1 84,410, especially at Column 2, lines 6-7 and 51-53 pertaining to molybdenum complexes, as well as the Bulletin of the Chemical Society of Japan, Volume 40, 2819-2822 (1967).
For example they can be manufactured from the corresponding B diketones. In some cases, when the desired B diketones is not available, they may be manufactured by any convenient method, for example by reacting an ester with a monoketone. When the Y group is not hydrogen, it may be directly linked to the B diketone or after that a thiorganic complex has been formed with it or one of its sulfur derivatives. For ex ample a sodium salt of a B diketone may be reacted with an alkyl halide to obtain an alkyl group represen-- tative of Y.
The synthesis of the thioorganic complexes which are used in this invention comprises the step of sulfurizing the available or manufactured B diketone. This sulfurization is carried out according to any known method. Hydrogen sulfide may be used, for example, as the sulfurizing agent, either in acidic medium or not, optionally in a solvent. This sulfurization may be carried out in the presence of a salt of the desired metal. In that case there is obtained the desired thioorganic complex or a mixture of complexes of the given formula. When the sulfurization is carried out without a metal salt, there is obtained, in some cases, a monothioketone or a dithioketone, or a mixture of both, or a mixture of one or two of them with the starting B diketone. It is sufficient as a rule, to contact the desired salt of metal with the ketones or their mixtures to obtain a thioorganic complex or a mixture of thioorganic complexes of the given formula.
The present invention applies to all types of base oils, for example those obtained by extracting petroleum fractions with solvents or by any other refining or synthesis process.
The thioorganic complexes are added to the base oils in low proportions, for example from 0.05 to 5 percent by weight and preferably from 0.2 to 2 percent by weight.
The outstanding antioxidant properties that the thioorganic complexes confer to the lubricating oils appear to result from the hydroperoxides destruction power and the reactivity with free radicals of these complexes.
The anti-wear and extreme-pressure properties are related to the power of these complexes to adhere on the metal surfaces, which results in a protection of the latter.
The following examples are given for illustration purposes.
EXAMPLES l TO 5 The thioorganometallic complexes of table I have been admixed with the base oils in the given amounts. The resulting mixtures have been subjected to a particularly severe oxidation test: the sample is vigorously stirred with iron naphthenate (6 ppm) and lead oxide (6 grams per liter) at C in oxygen: the amount of oxygen absorbed in 7 hours is noted. The lower this amount, the better the resistance to oxidation of the mixture.

The resulting mixtures have been subjected to a severe oxidation test: a sample is vigorously stirred with iron naphthenate (6ppm) and lead oxide (6 grams per liter) at 160C in oxygen: the oxygen amount absorbed in 7 hours is noted. The lower this amount the higher the resistance to oxidation of the mixture.
The results are given in table Ill in which M is a metal in the divalent state selected from the group consisting of the transition metals, zinc. cadmium, tin and lead; )1 is 2; R and R when taken individually are each selected from the group consisting of a monovalent hydrocarbon radical of one to 20 carbon atoms, a halohydrocarbon radical of one to 20 carbon atoms and a methoxy phenyl radical; Y when taken individually is selected from the group consisting of the hydrogen atom and the radicals R, R'O, RS and RCO 10 in which R is a hydrocarbon radical of one to 20 car- TABLE III Amount, Absorbed Example percent oxygen, number Oil Additive b.w. moles/liter 9 200 neutral solvent (zarzaitine) f CS 0.15 0.12

l. A lubricating composition comprising a lubricating oil and from 0.05 to 5 percent by weight with respect to the oil of at least one thioorganometallic complex of the general formula:
bon atoms; Y and R when taken together, form a divalent hydrocarbon radical of one to 20 carbon atoms; and each atom Z is oxygen or sulfur, providing that at least one of the Z atoms of the complex is sulfur.
2. A lubricating composition according to claim 1, wherein the lubricating oil is selected from base oils of petroleum origin and synthetic lubricants.
3. A lubricating composition according to claim 1, wherein the content of the thioorganometallic complex is 0.2 2 percent by weight.
4. A lubricating composition according to claim 1 wherein all Z are sulfur and M is selected from the group consisting of nickel, cobalt and zinc.
5. A lubricating composition according to claim 4 wherein M is nickel.
6. A lubricating composition according to claim 4 wherein M is zinc.
