Abstract
The invention relates to a cross-linking monomer with at least one sulfur atom, representable by a structure of formula (I)
Description

The invention relates to a cross-linking monomer with at least one sulfur atom, a composition containing said monomer and the use of said monomer in dental medicine.


Polymerizable phosphonic acids are of polymer chemical and technical significance as co-monomers in particular, and enable the production of organic polymers with improved thermal stability, improved adhesion properties, reduced flammability and improved solubility in polar solvents. In this context, numerous monomer phosphonic acids have been synthesized and polymerized with polymerizable vinyl, dienyl, allyl or styryl groups (cf. Houben-Weyl, Methoden der Organischen Chemie, Vol. E 20 (2nd section), G. Thieme Verlag, Stuttgart-New York 1987, 1300 ff.). Polymerizable phosphonic acids are also known as components of dental adhesives (cf. N. Moszner, U. Salz, J. Zimmermann, Dental Materials 21 (2005) 895-910) and as the subject of numerous patents and patent applications, e.g. DE 100 18 968 C1, DE 102 34 326 B3, DE 199 18 974 A1, EP 1 057 468 A1 and EP 1 169 996 A1.


Patent document WO 2013/083734 A1 describes polymerizable bisphosphonic acids, which can be integrated into a polymer matrix in a similar manner to the monomers described above. Sulfurous monomers are not explicitly named in WO 2013/083734 A1. In a very generalized embodiment, which is not described as a preferred embodiment, sulfur atoms can be present in chains, for example as thioether group —S—, which bonds at least one polymerizable group with an (m+2)-fold substituted aliphatic C1-C8 residue, which in WO 2013/083734 A1 is depicted with symbol A. The residue A comprises no sulfur atoms and is bonded with two phosphonic acid groups. Between the two phosphonic acid groups, no sulfur atoms can therefore be arranged in monomers according to WO 2013/083734 A1. Further, group A represents a branch point, since all polymerizable groups bond to group A. There is therefore no embodiment in which a sulfur atom is arranged between a phosphorus atom and a branch point.


Further, there is no specific reference to monomers containing sulfur atoms. The embodiment described is far more selected from a long list of groups which can be present in a chain, which bonds a polymerizable group with the residue A.


The monomers described above lead to serviceable dental materials. However, there is a constant need for improving the properties of these materials. In particular, the adhesion of these materials to different substrates which are of importance in dental medicine should be improved. Further, the formulation of compositions for producing these dental materials should be simplified. A further object can be regarded as designing the handling of the formulations usable in dental medicine in such a way that it becomes simpler. Additionally, the hardening of polymerizable compositions should be improved. Furthermore, the mechanical properties of polymerizable dental materials should be increased.


These and other objects not explicitly described, but which can easily be derived and extrapolated from the contexts discussed here in the introduction, are attained by means of a monomer comprising at least one sulfur atom with all the features of Claim 1. Advantageous modifications of the monomers according to the invention are protected in the dependent claims which refer to Claim 1.


The subject of the present invention is therefore a networked monomer, representable by a structure of formula (I)

wherein the symbols have the following meaning:


L1 is a linear, branched or cyclic, saturated or unsaturated, aliphatic or heteroaliphatic group with 2 to 10 carbon atoms; an aromatic or heteroaromatic group with 4 to 12, preferably 5 to 10 carbon atoms or a group with 6 to 14 carbon atoms, which comprises at least one saturated or unsaturated, aliphatic and/or heteroaliphatic residue and at least one aromatic and/or heteroaromatic residue, wherein the phosphorus atom is directly bonded with a carbon atom;


V1 is a saturated or unsaturated, aliphatic or heteroaliphatic group with 2 to 50 carbon atoms; an aromatic or heteroaromatic group with 5 to 50 carbon atoms or a group with 6 to 50 carbon atoms, which comprises at least one saturated or unsaturated, aliphatic and/or heteroaliphatic residue and at least one aromatic and/or heteroaromatic residue;


X1 is the same or different, O or NR3, each time it occurs;


R1 is H or a hydrolyzable group;


R2 is H or an alkyl residue with 1 to 4 carbon atoms;


R3 is H or an aliphatic, heteroaliphatic, aromatic or heteroaromatic group with 1 to 6 carbon atoms, and


n is 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6,


which is characterized in that


the sulfur atom in the structure according to formula (I) is separated from group X1 by a maximum of 12 bonds, which group is spaced from the sulfur atom by the lowest number of bonds, wherein double bonds or triple bonds are counted as a single bond.


The monomers according to the invention with at least one sulfur atom are particularly suited for applications in dental medicine, and have a good adhesive capacity, in particular in relation to tooth hardening substance and/or metals used in dental medicine.


The monomers according to the invention with at least one sulfur atom preferably have a very good adhesion capacity on solid surfaces when in a hardened state in products, preferably in relation to Dentin, here with an adhesive force of preferably at least 12.5 MPa.


The monomers according to the invention with at least one sulfur atom are suitable as additives for and as a component of adhesion improving adhesive(s), in particular suitable for mineral substrates, and particularly for dental hardening materials. They also enable application in the non-etch method, since the bonds according to the invention, including in combination with one or more additional monomers, evidently lead to the surface modification required for the bonding procedure.


Furthermore, the monomers according to the invention according to formula (I) show an adhesion-improving effect as a component of dental filling composites and fixing cements, lining materials, flow materials, fissure sealers, lacquers, root canal materials, core build-up materials and temporary repair materials (in particular, inlays, onlays, crowns, bridges and/or fixing materials).


Here, the monomers with at least one sulfur atom according to the invention preferably, when in a fully hardened state, lead to products with excellent mechanical properties and a high level of durability. This entails high abrasion resistance (wear resistance) and high stability under loads (flexural strength). Further, the monomers according to the present invention preferably lead to a lower or reduced absorption of water or solubility.


Furthermore, the monomers with at least one sulfur atom according to the invention can be processed very well, wherein this is reflected in a very good level of solubility in different solvents and relatively good, rapid polymerization.


The above advantages can be realised in full or partially. In general, the monomers are distinguished by improved adhesion on different materials.


The term “cross-linking monomer” describes a monomer which has at least two radically polymerizable groups, preferably (meth)acrylate groups. (Meth)acrylate groups are groups derived from acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, acrylamide or methacrylamide, for example.


Adjacent carbon atoms in the sense of the present invention are carbon atoms which are directly linked to each other. Further, “adjacent residues” means in terms of the definition of the residues that these residues are bonded with the same carbon atom or to adjacent carbon atoms. These definitions apply accordingly to the terms “adjacent groups” and “adjacent substitutes”, among others. The term “non-adjacent” carbon atoms results from this definition in a complementary manner.


The term linear, branched or cyclic, saturated or unsaturated, aliphatic or heteroaliphatic group with 2 to 10 carbon atoms is known in the specialist field and describes a group with 2 to 10 carbon atoms, which comprises no aromatic or heteroaromatic group between the at least two bonding points of the respective group, and preferably comprises no aromatic or heteroaromatic group. Thus, for example, group L1 has at least one bonding point to the phosphorus atom and at least one bonding point to the sulfur atom. The term “no aromatic or heteroaromatic group between the at least two bonding points” means that no aromatic or heteroaromatic group participates in the bonds between the phosphorus atom and the sulfur atom, although it may well be present as a side group or a substituent.


Saturated aliphatic groups which are suitable as group L1 in formula (I) include, among others, ethylene, 1,2- and 1,3-propylene, 1,2, 1,3- and 1,4-butylene, pentylene, hexylene, heptylene, octylene, nonylene, decylene, undecylene, dodecylene and tetradecylene.


Unsaturated aliphatic groups which are suitable as group L1 in formula (I) differ from the groups described above due to the presence of at least one C—C double or triple bond. These include, among others, ethenylene, 1,2- and 1,3-propenylene, 1,2, 1,3- and 1,4-butenylene, pentenylene, hexenylene, heptenylene, octenylene, nonenylene, decenylene, undecenylene, dodecenylene and tetradecenylene.


As well as carbon and hydrocarbon atoms, heteroaliphatic groups have heteroatoms such as nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorous, silicon and sulfur atoms. Preferred heteroaliphatic groups, which can be saturated or unsaturated, are derived among others from the saturated and unsaturated aliphatic groups described above, wherein one or more non-adjacent CH2 groups are substituted with —(C═O)—, —(C═S)—, —(C═NR3)—, —C(═O)O—, —C(═O)NR3—, —NR3—, P(═O)(R3), —[CH(CxH2x)P(═O)(OR1)2]—, —O—, —S—, —(SO)— or (—SO2)—, wherein R3 is H or an aliphatic, heteroaliphatic, aromatic or heteroaromatic group with 1 to 6 carbon atoms, x is an integer in the range of 0 to 6, preferably 1 to 5.


Further, the symbol L1 can stand for an aromatic or heteroaromatic group with 4 to 12, preferably 5 to 10 carbon atoms. An aromatic or heteroaromatic group comprises at least one aryl or heteroaryl group, which is respectively bonded with the adjacent group. In the case of group L1, the sulfur and the phosphorous atom are respectively bonded with one atom of the aromatic system, preferably to a phenylene group.


An aryl group in the sense of this invention contains 6 to 12 C-atoms; a heteroaryl group in the sense of this invention contains 4 to 12, preferably 5 to 10 C-atoms and at least one heteroatom, with the proviso that the total of C-atoms and heteroatoms is at least 5. The heteroatoms are preferably selected from N, O and/or S. Here, an aryl group or heteroaryl group is understood as being either a single aromatic cyclus, i.e. benzol, or a single heteroaromatic cyclus, such as pyridine, pyrimidine, thiopene, etc., or a condensed aryl or heteroaryl group, such as naphthalene, quinoline, isoquinoline, etc. The aryl or heteroaryl group can here be substituted by one or more linear, branched or cyclic, saturated or unsaturated, aliphatic or heteroaliphatic groups, with the proviso that the respective total number of C-atoms for an aromatic or heteroaromatic group is not exceeded.


Further, group L1 can stand for a group with 6 to 14 carbon atoms, which comprises at least on saturated or unsaturated, aliphatic or heteroaliphatic residue and at least one aromatic and/or heteroaromatic residue. This group is a combination of a linear, branched or cyclic, saturated or unsaturated, aliphatic or heteroaliphatic group and an aromatic or heteroaromatic group, as described above. Here, between the at least two bonding points, the group can have at least one aromatic or heteroaromatic group and at least one saturated or unsaturated, aliphatic and/or heteroaliphatic group. Further, a linear, branched or cyclic, saturated or unsaturated, aliphatic or heteroaliphatic group, which is present between the at least two bonding points, can be substituted by one or more aromatic and/or heteroaromatic residues.


In a particularly preferred embodiment, the symbol L1 can represent a linear, branched or cyclic alkylene group with 2 to 10 carbon atoms, in which one or more non-adjacent CH2 groups can be substituted with —R3C═CR3—, —C≡C—, —(C═O)—, —(C═S)—, —(C═NR3),—, —C(═O)O—, —C(═O)NR3—, —NR3—, P(═O)(R3), —[CH(CxH2x)P(═O)(OR1)2]—, O—, —S—, —(SO)— or (—SO2)—, wherein R3 has the meaning described above for formula (I) and x is an integer in the range of 0 to 6, preferably 1 to 5. If the group L1 has a phosphorous atom, this phosphorous atom is preferably spaced by at least 4, particularly preferred by at least 6 bonds from the phosphorous atom shown in formula (I). In a further embodiment, the second phosphorous atom can be arranged closer to the sulfur atom than the first phosphorous atom. Arranged closer means that the number of atoms present between the sulfur atom and the phosphorous atoms differs.


In a particularly preferred manner, L1 is a linear, branched or cyclic alkylene group with 2 to 10, preferably 3 to 5 carbon atoms, which has no heteroatoms. In a particularly preferred manner, group L1 is a saturated hydrocarbon residue with 2 to 6, preferably 3 to 5 carbon atoms, which comprises no heteroatoms.


The phosphorous atom in formula (I) is directly bonded with a carbon atom in group L1, so that the group containing the phosphorus atom can be understood as being a phosphonic acid or phosphonic acid ester group.


Preferably, the cross-linking monomer with at least one sulfur atom is representable by a structure of formula (Ia)

Preferred embodiments of group L1a emerge from the specific embodiments of group L1 described above, wherein the CH2 group should, however, be taken into account.


The symbol R1 in formula (I) or (Ia) is H or a hydrolyzable group. A hydrolyzable group is distinguished by the fact that it can be particularly easily transferred into an OH group with water or a corresponding reagent. Particularly easily means that the hydrolysis occurs faster than hydrolysis of the acrylic group. Preferably, the hydrolyzable group R1 is an alkyl residue with 1 to 4, preferably 2 carbon atoms. Accordingly, the group R1 preferably stands for hydrogen, methyl, ethyl, propyl or butyl, particularly preferred for hydrogen or ethyl.


Group V1 is a saturated or unsaturated, aliphatic or heteroaliphatic group with 2 to 50, preferably 3 to 30 carbon atoms; an aromatic or heteroaromatic group with 5 to 50, preferably 6 to 30 carbon atoms or a group with 6 to 50, preferably 6 to 30 carbon atoms, which comprises at least one saturated or unsaturated, aliphatic and/or heteroaliphatic residue and at least one aromatic and/or heteroaromatic residue. Here, the definitions described above apply accordingly, wherein the number of carbon atoms can however be higher. Group V1 has at least three bonding points. The precise number of bonding points is calculated from the number of polymerizable acrylic residues n, which is given in formula (I) or (Ia). The residue V1 accordingly is (n+1) valent.


Preferably, group V1 is a saturated or unsaturated, aliphatic or heteroaliphatic group with 2 to 50, preferably 3 to 30 carbon atoms or a group with 6 to 50, preferably 6 to 30 carbon atoms, which comprises at least one saturated or unsaturated, aliphatic and/or heteroaliphatic residue and at least one aromatic and/or heteroaromatic residue. Here, it is preferred that the sulfur atom in formula (I) and group X1 in formula (I) are each bonded via an aliphatic carbon atom of group V1, preferably a group —CH2— or —CHR3—, wherein R3 has the meaning described for formula (I).


The index n stands for the number of acrylic groups, wherein this index is an integer in the range of 2 to 6, preferably 2 to 4, and particularly preferred 2 or 3.


The symbol X1 in formula (I) or (Ia) is the same or different each time it occurs O or NR3, wherein R3 is H or an aliphatic, heteroaliphatic, aromatic or heteroaromatic group with 1 to 6 carbon atoms. Here, symbol X1 in formula (I) or (Ia) preferably stands for O. Preferably, R3 stands for hydrogen, methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl or phenyl. According to a particular embodiment, at least one X1 can stand for NR3 and at least one X1 can stand for O.


The symbol R2 is H or an alkyl residue with 1 to 4 carbon atoms, preferably H or methyl and particularly preferred methyl.


The monomer with at least one sulfur atom according to the invention is distinguished by the fact that the sulfur atom in the structure according to formula (I) or (Ia) is separated from group X1 by a maximum of 12 bonds, which group is spaced from the sulfur atom by the lowest number of bonds, wherein double bonds or triple bonds are counted as a single bond. Preferably, the sulfur atom in the structure according to formula (I) or (Ia) is separated from group X1 by a maximum of 10, particularly preferred by a maximum of 8 bonds, which group is spaced from the sulfur atom by the lowest number of bonds, wherein double bonds or triple bonds are counted as a single bond.


Accordingly, a maximum of 11, preferably a maximum of 9 and specifically preferred a maximum of 7 covalent bonded atoms are located between the sulfur atom and the oxygen or nitrogen atom of group X1. This value applies to the oxygen or nitrogen atom of group X1, which has the lowest distance from the sulfur atom in the structure according to formula (I) or (Ia).


In a further embodiment, it can be provided that the sulfur atom in the structure according to formula (I) or (Ia) is separated from group X1 by a maximum of 12 bonds, which group is spaced from the sulfur atom by the highest number of bonds, wherein double bonds or triple bonds are counted as a single bond. Preferably, the sulfur atom in the structure according to formula (I) or (Ia) is separated from group X1 by a maximum of 10, particularly preferred by a maximum of 8 bonds, which group is spaced from the sulfur atom by the highest number of bonds, wherein double bonds or triple bonds are counted as a single bond.


Further, it can be provided that the phosphorous atom in the structure according to formula (I) or (Ia) is separated from group X1 by a maximum of 20 bonds, which group is spaced from the sulfur atom by the highest number of bonds, wherein double bonds or triple bonds are counted as a single bond. Preferably, the phosphorous atom in the structure according to formula (I) or (Ia) is separated from group X1 by a maximum of 18, particularly preferred by a maximum of 16 bonds, which group is spaced from the sulfur atom by the highest number of bonds, wherein double bonds or triple bonds are counted as a single bond.


Further, it can be provided that the phosphorous atom in the structure according to formula (I) or (Ia) is separated from group X1 by at least 8 bonds, which group is spaced from the phosphorus atom by the lowest number of bonds, wherein double bonds or triple bonds are counted as a single bond.

Monomers according to the invention according to formula (I) or (Ia), in which the phosphorous or sulfur atom is separated from group X1 by a low number of bonds, lead to improved polymer properties of curable compositions. Further, these compounds have a relatively low viscosity.


The expression “between the atoms” or “between the bonding points” means that the atoms or bonds are present in a main chain, which bond the two bonding points or the two atoms. The term “main chain” should be regarded as being different from a “side chain” or a substituent which tranches off from the main chain. In simplified terms, the number of bonds or atoms arranged “between the atoms” or “between the bonding points” does not change if a side group or a substituent is substituted with a hydrogen atom. If an atom in a main chain is substituted with one or two hydrogen atoms, this number changes.


Further, it can be provided that group V1 in formula (I) or (Ia) comprises at least one aromatic and/or heteroaromatic residue, preferably at least one aromatic residue. This aromatic and/or heteroaromatic residue can be part of a linear, branched or cyclic, saturated or unsaturated, aliphatic or heteroaliphatic group, wherein the residue can in this case be a substituent of a CH2 group or a group of formulae —(C═NR3)—, —C(═O)NR3—, —NR3—, P(═O)(R3), for example. Preferably, the aromatic and/or heteroaromatic residue of group V1 can be a monocyclic residue, preferably a phenyl or phenylene residue, which if applicable can be substituted by one or more groups R3 wherein R3 has the meaning described above for formula (I).


Monomers according to the invention according to formula (I) or (Ia), in which group V1 has at least one aromatic and/or heteroaromatic residue, lead to improved mechanical properties of hardened compositions.


Preferably, it can be provided that a monomer according to formula (I) or (Ia) has in total 1, 2 or 3 sulfur atoms, particularly preferred 1 or 2 sulfur atoms, and specifically preferred precisely one sulfur atom, wherein this number includes the sulfur atom shown in formula (I) or (Ia). If more than one sulfur atom is contained, this can be contained in group L1 and/or group V1.


In a particularly preferred manner, it can be provided that a monomer according to formula (I) or (Ia) has in total 1, 2 or 3 phosphorous atoms, particularly preferred 1 or 2 phosphorous atoms, and specifically preferred precisely one phosphorous atom, wherein this number includes the phosphorous atom shown in formula (I) or (Ia). If more than one phosphorous atom is contained, this can be contained in group L1 and/or group V1.

The thiol with a phosphonic acid ester group can then be reacted, by a radical reaction with an unsaturated compound, to a thioether which either directly represents a compound according to the invention or is converted to a compound according to the invention in an esterification reaction. Here, a person skilled in the art will be provided with valuable information from the examples.


A preferred method for producing a monomer with at least one sulfur atom according to the invention is characterized in that an unsaturated compound is converted with a sulfurous compound according to formula (E-I)

Here, mixtures of the different photoinhibitors such as dibenzoyldiethylgermanium can be used in combination with campher chinone and 4-dimethylaminobenzoic acid ethyl ester.


As initiators for polymerization conducted at room temperature, preferably redox initiator combinations such as combinations of benzoyl peroxide with N,N-dimethyl-sym.-xylidine or N,N-dimethyl-p-toluidine are used. Furthermore, redox systems consisting of peroxidene or hydroperoxidine, and such reduction agents as e.g. ascorbic acid, barbiturates, thio urea derivatives or sulphinic acids are particularly suitable.

embedded image


430 mg (0.61 mmol) methacrylated diethyl(3-((1,3-bis(4-(3-hydroxypropoxy)phenyl)-3-oxopropyl)thio)-propyl) phosphonate were dissolved in a 50 ml double-neck round flask in 6.2 ml dry dichloromethane. The solution was de-gassed through the introduction of nitrogen for 1 hour. Then, 805 μl (6.1 mmol) bromtrimethyl silane were added, and the solution was stirred for 9 hours at a bath temperature of 23° C. The organic solvent was removed under reduced pressure and dried under vacuum. The interim product was treated with 5 ml methanol and stirred for 30 minutes at room temperature. Then, the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. After drying the product under vacuum, a dark red, highly viscous liquid was obtained.


The obtained 1H NMR spectrum of (3-((1,3-bis(4-3-8methacryloyloxy)-propoxy)phenyl)-3-oxopropyl)thio)propyl-phosphonic acid is shown in FIG. 12.
