Abstract
N-(2,2,6,6-tetraalkyl-4-piperidinyl)amic acid hydrazides contain a light stabilizing group, a heat stabilizing group and an amic acid hydrazide functionality in the same molecule. The amic acid hydrazide functionality in the compounds enhances the photooxidative stabilizing properties of the hindered amine groups and contributes thermal and oxidative stabilizing and metal complexing properties to the compounds. The novel compounds are excellent light stabilizers for polyolefins, have low volatility and are not readily lost from polymeric systems via volatilization, migration or extraction.
Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to novel derivatives of N-(2,2,6,6-tetraalkyl-4-piperidinyl)amic acid hydrazides. These compounds are very efficient in the stabilization of polymeric systems which are subject to degradation upon exposure to heat and/or light.
Particularly, this invention is related to acyl, carbamoyl, thiocarbamoyl, alkoxycarbonyl, aryloxycarbonyl, aralkoxycarbonyl, cycloalkoxycarbonyl, aliphatic, alicyclic, araliphatic, aryl, 2-hydroxyalkyl, 2-hydroxycycloalkyl and hydrazone derivatives of N-(2,2,6,6-tetraalkyl-4-piperidinyl)amic acid hydrazides.
2. Description of the Prior Art
Derivatives of hindered amine light stabilizing-substituted hydrazides (HALS-substituted hydrazides) are disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,145,512 and 4,178,279. These patents teach reacting hindered amine light stabilizers (HALS) containing carboxylic acid hydrazide groups with isocyanate groups of polyisocyanates or isocyanate prepolymers to obtain light stabilized polyurethanes. However, the HALS-hydrazides employed were not HALS-substituted amic acid hydrazides and therefore do not have the enhanced stabilizing effect of the novel derivatives of the present invention.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,336,183 discloses various HALS spiro compounds containing a hydrazide functionality. It also discloses various acyl derivatives of these hydrazides. However, none of the hydrazides are N-HALS-substituted amic acid hydrazides and consequently the derivatives do not fall under the scope of the present invention.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,983,738, assigned to the assignee of the present invention, disclose N-(2,2,6,6-tetraalkyl-4-piperidinyl)amic acid hydrazides from which the compounds of the present invention may be prepared. These compounds are efficient light stabilizers for polymeric systems; however, the disclosed compounds have some volatility limitations and can be extracted out of the polymers to some degree by water or aqueous solutions.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,824,884, assigned to the assignee of the present invention, discloses cyclic anhydride derivatives of N-(2,2,6,6-tetraalkyl-4-piperidinyl)amic acid hydrazides. These compounds are also efficient heat and light stabilizers for polymeric systems but do not fall under the scope of this invention.
Prior to the present invention, the results obtained with the known hindered amine light stabilizers have not been satisfactory with all types of manufactured articles, due to certain deficiencies in stabilization, compatibility, volatility, exudability or economics. Therefore, further improvement in the field of hindered amine light stabilizers is still desirable. The novel compounds of this invention address these shortcomings.
DEFINITIONS
Throughout the disclosure, when referring to "2,2,6,6-tetraalkylpiperidines", or "2,2,6,16-tetraalkyl-4-piperidinyl groups" the piperidinyl groups optionally substituted in the 3 position of the piperidine group with lower alkyl groups of 1-4 carbons are also included, i.e., the structure having the formula: ##STR1## where R and R.sup.1 are as defined hereinafter.
The term "acyl" refers to a radical generated from a carboxylic acid by the removal of the OH group to provide a free valence on the C(.dbd.O) group, for example, DC(.dbd.O)OH would become the DC(.dbd.O) substituent referred to generally as a D acyl group.
As used herein, the terms "polymer" or "polymeric composition(s)" include homopolymers or any type of copolymers.
Where any symbol appears more than once in a formula, its meaning in each instance is independent of one another.

The reactions of hydrazides with ketones, aldehydes, isocyanates, diisocyanates, isothiocyanates and diisothiocyanates are well known in the art and can occur under a wide range of conditions, including varying temperatures, times, solvents and concentrations. Generally, a mole ratio of about 0.9 to about 1.0 to about 1.1 to about 1.0 of the hydrazide to the monofunctional co-reactant is employed. If the co-reactant is difunctional, then a mole ratio of about 1.8 to about 2.0 to about 1.1 to about 1.0 of the hydrazide to the difunctional co-reactant is employed. If the co-reactant is a compound that can easily be removed from the product by volatalization, for example, acetone or methyl ethyl ketone, lower mole ratios may be desirable. In fact, it may be desirable to use the co-reactant as the solvent.
III. MISCELLANEOUS REACTIONS
The starting hydrazides of Formula II also react with unsubstituted or N-substituted amic acid esters in lower alcohol solutions to form 1,2-amoyl hydrazines, Formula IX, as indicated by the following reaction equation: ##STR11##
The reactions are normally carried out in refluxing methanol but may be carried out in higher boiling aprotic solvents or without a solvent by heating a mixture of the two components above their melting points. The methyl and ethyl esters of N-substituted oxamates and succinamates are the preferred co-reactants and R, R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4, R.sup.15 and R.sup.18 are as previously broadly defined.
The novel acyl derivatives of Formula II, designated as Formula X, may be prepared by reacting the esters of Formula IV with acid hydrazides neat or in refluxing alcohols, such as methanol, ethanol or isopropanol, as indicated in the following reaction equation: ##STR12##
R, R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4, R.sup.15 and R.sup.18 are as previously broadly defined.
The novel acyl derivatives of Formula X may also be prepared by reacting the hydrazides of Formula II with non-cyclic carboxylic acid anhydrides, as indicated per the following equation: ##STR13##
The reactions are typically conducted in aprotic solvents, such as THF, diethyl ether or t-butyl methyl ether. However, the reaction may also be carried out by adding the anhydride to a methanolic solution of the hydrazide. R, R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4, R.sup.15 and R.sup.18 are as previously broadly defined. Preferably, R.sup.15 is alkyl of 1-10 carbons or phenyl. In addition, when R is hydrogen, alkyl, cycloalkyl, aralkyl or aryl, the carboxylic acid generated in the reaction may form a salt, designated as Formula XA, with the hindered amine of Formula X, as per the following equation: ##STR14##
The free base acyl derivatives of Formula X may be regenerated from the carboxylic acid salt of Formula XA by neutralizing the salt with a stronger base than the hindered amine, for example, dilute sodium hydroxide, dilute potassium hydroxide, hydrazine or more basic amines, such as diethylamine and triethylamine. This neutralization procedure is illustrated by the following equation: ##STR15##

The isocyanate and diisocyanate adducts were prepared by adding equal equivalents of the isocyanate or diisocyanate indicated in Table I to a stirring slurry of the N-(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinyl)amic acid hydrazide in THF. The addition was typically started &t room temperature and the temperature was allowed to rise throughout the addition (5-10 minutes). The reaction was stirred an additional hour, after which the reaction was usually complete. To assure complete reaction of the isocyanate, the reaction mixtures were heated to reflux and refluxed 1 to 21/2 hours in some examples. If the product was insoluble in THF, it was isolated by filtration and air dried. If the product was soluble in THF, it was isolated by evaporating the solvent on a rotating evaporator under reduced pressure. The residue was pulverized with a mortar and pestle and air dried overnight.
The products were characterized by their melting ranges and infrared spectra. The infrared spectra were run in solution or as nujol mulls.
Example IX was prepared using methyl ethyl ketone as the solvent instead of THF.
Information including reactants, reaction parameters, structures of products and results are summarized in Table I.

Hydrazone Derivatives of N-(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinyl ) amic Acid Hydrazides ##STR38##
The hydrazone derivatives indicated in Table II were prepared by reacting equal equivalents (or a slight excess of ketone) of the HALS hydrazide with the ketone in toluene or xylene and azeotropically distilling off the water formed in the reaction. The reactions were refluxed using a reflux condenser connected to a Dean Stark trap, until water no longer formed in the trap. Insoluble products were isolated by filtration and soluble products were isolated by solvent evaporation on a rotating evaporator under reduced pressure. Product residues were generally pulverized, rinsed with a non-solvent or poor solvent to remove any residual starting material and air dried overnight.
The products were characterized by their melting ranges and infrared spectra. The infrared spectra were run in solution or as nujol mulls.
In Example XVIII, the free base of the 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidone hydrochloride salt (obtained from the Aldrich Chemical Co.) was liberated with aqueous caustic prior to running the reaction. The water from the caustic and the water generated by the reaction were removed by azeotropic distillation.
Information including reactants, reaction parameters, structures of products and the results are summarized in Table II.

a is ##STR51## and b is ##STR52##
Into a 50 ml 3-necked flask was introduced N-(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinyl)-N'-aminooxamide (HALS-0) (6.1 g, 0.025 mole) and 2-ethylhexyl glycidyl ether (4.65 g, 0.025 mole). The flask was equipped with a magnetic stirrer, a thermometer and a reflux condenser. The flask was placed in an oil bath and heated to 150.degree.-160.degree. C. for 1 hour with stirring. The reaction mixture was cooled to 130.degree. C. and poured into a small beaker. The viscous liquid was cooled to a brittle solid over dry ice and pulverized with a mortar and pestle. Upon warming to room temperature it became a viscous liquid again. The liquid chromatographic scan of the product showed a large peak for the starting HALS-0 and two major peaks for the monoalkylated (i.e., where R' and R'' are hydrogen and R''' is a or b) and dialkylated (i.e., where R' is hydrogen and R'' and R''' are a or b) products. There was no residual 2-ethylhexyl glycidyl ether. The reaction with HALS-0 (3.05 g, 0.0125 mole) and 2-ethylhexyl glycidyl ether (4.65 g, 0.025 mole) was repeated. The reaction mixture was heated for 1 hour at 145.degree.-160.degree. C., followed by cooling to room temperature.
The product was a viscous liquid containing five components by liquid chromatography: three major components and small amounts of residual HALS-0 and 2-ethylhexyl glycidyl ether. Of the three major components, the retention time of the smaller component corresponded to the monoalkylated product. The largest peak corresponded to the retention time of the dialkylated product and a new peak having the shortest retention time corresponded to a trialkylated product (i.e., where R', R'' and R''' are a or b).
The reaction with HALS-0 (3.05 g, 0.0125 mole) and 2-ethylhexyl glycidyl ether (7.0 g, 0.0375 mole) was again repeated. The reaction mixture was heated for 4 hours at 140.degree.-150.degree. C. and was monitored by liquid chromatography. After heating for 1 hour, the reaction mixture contained large amounts of 2-ethylhexyl glycidyl ether and monoalkylated product, a moderate amount of dialkylated product, a small amount of HALS-0 and a trace amount of the trialkylated product. After heating for 2 hours, there were still large, roughly equal amounts of the dialkylated and trialkylated products, moderate amounts of residual epoxide and monoalkylated product and a trace amount of residual HALS-0. After 4 hours heating, the major product was the trialkylated product with only small traces of the mono and dialkylated products. The reaction was cooled to room temperature, leaving a viscouus liquid as the product.

The flask was equipped with a magnetic stirrer, a thermometer and a reflux condenser. The flask was then placed in an oil bath and heated to 150.degree. C. for 3 hours. Liquid chromatography of the reaction mixture indicated that primarily the trialkylated product was present, with small amounts of the mono and dialkylated HALS-0 and epoxide remaining. The product was cooled to room temperature and was a very viscous liquid.

The insoluble material that formed was filtered off and the product was isolated by removing the methanol from the filtrate on a rotatary evaporator under reduced pressure.
To a solution of the monoethyl oxalyl-2-methylhydrazide (3.7 g, 0,025 mole) in 20 ml of methanol in a 50 ml flask was added 4-amino-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine (4.2 g). The reaction was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour and then refluxed for 1 hour.
Upon cooling, the product crystallized out of solution. The product was isolated by filtration and air dried. The yield of isolated product was 2.85 grams (44.5% yield). The infrared scan of the product was the same as that of the product prepared from N-(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinyl)oxamate and methylhydrazine.

Preparation of 1-[N-(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinyl)oxamoyl]-4-acetylhydrazine ##STR59##
Method A
Into a 3-necked 10.0 ml flask was 5 introduced acetic hydrazide (3.75 g, 0.05 mole) and a 60% solution of methyl N-(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinyl)oxamate in anhydrous methanol (20.7 g, 0.05 mole). The flask was equipped with a magnetic stirrer, a thermometer and a Dean Stark trap equipped with a reflux condenser. The flask was placed in an oil bath and the reaction mixture was heated to reflux. Upon reaching reflux temperature (about 70.degree. C.), a white solid quickly formed and a thick slurry resulted within 5 minutes. The slurry was refluxed for 1/2 hour at 70.degree.-73.degree. C. and was then diluted with 50 ml of methanol. The slurry was filtered hot (60.degree. C.) and the filter cake was rinsed with 25 ml of fresh methanol. After air drying overnight on a watch glass, the white powder weighed 8.6 g (60.5% yield). The product had a melting point of 267.degree.-269.degree. C. An infrared scan (nujol mull) of the product contained carbonyl bands at 1660, 1620, 1565 and 1510 cm.sup.-1.
Additional product (5.4 g, 38% yield) was recovered by distilling off most of the methanol from the filtrate and refluxing the residue (72.degree. C.) for 10 minutes and repeating the recovery procedure with 25 ml of methanol.
Method B
Into a 3-necked flask was introduced 98% N-(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinyl)-N'-aminooxamide (HALS-0) (12.4 g, 0.05 mole) and 125 ml of THF. The flask was equipped with a magnetic stirrer, a thermometer, a reflux condenser and a dropping funnel containing acetic anhydride (5.1 g, 0.05 mole) diluted to 25 ml with THF. The stirrer was activated and the anhydride solution was added dropwise to the stirring slurry of HALS-0 over 2-3 minutes. The reaction temperature rose from 22.degree. C. to 32.degree. C. and the slurry changed in physical appearance. After the addition was complete, the reaction was stirred 1 hour while the temperature dropped back to 26.degree. C. The slurry was filtered and the filter cake was slurried in 100 ml of 3% sodium bicarbonate solution and refiltered. The filter cake was air dried overnight on a watch glass. After drying, the product weighed 12.6 g (88.7% yield). The product had a melting point of 265.degree.-268.degree. C. and the infrared scan (nujol mull) of the product was the same as that of the product from Method A.
EXAMPLE XXXV
Preparation of 1-[N-(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinyl)oxamoyl]-2-propionylhydrazine ##STR60##
Into a 3-necked 250 ml flask was introduced HALS-0 (12.2 g, 0.05 mole) and 150 ml THF. The flask was equipped with a magnetic stirrer, a thermometer, a reflux condenser and a dropping funnel containing propionic anhydride (6.5 g, 0.05 mole) diluted to 15 ml with THF. The stirrer was activated and the propionic anhydride solution was added dropwise over 5 minutes. The reaction temperature slowly rose from 19.degree. C. to 27.degree. C. where the reaction mixture gelled. The reaction mixture was heated to reflux in an oil bath for 1 hour. The gelled material went into solution upon heating followed by a solid material precipitating out of solution to form a thin slurry. The reaction was cooled to 50.degree. C. and filtered. The filter cake was washed with fresh THF and then air dried overnight. The product was a white powder weighing 13.9 g (93% yield). The product had a melting range of 221.degree.-225.degree. C. and the infrared scan (nujol mull) of the product contained carbonyl bands at 1660, 1620, 1565 and 1500 cm.sup.-1.
EXAMPLE XXXVI
Preparation of 1-[N-(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinyl)oxamoyl]-2-butyroylhydrazine ##STR61##
Method A
Into a 3-necked 250 ml flask was introduced butyric hydrazide (5.1 g, 0.05 mole) and a 55% solution of methyl N-(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinyl)oxamate in anhydrous methanol (22.0 g, 0.05 mole). The flask was equipped with a magnetic stirrer, a thermometer and a Dean Stark trap equipped with a reflux condenser. The flask was placed in an oil bath and the reaction mixture was heated to reflux. The butyric hydrazide went into solution at about 30.degree. C. After refluxing 10-15 minutes, a solid material began to form. The methanol was slowly distilled off by gradually draining the Dean Stark trap. After the methanol distillation stopped (75.degree.-80.degree. C.), the reaction mixture was a thick, viscous, taffy-like material. The reaction mixture was diluted with 50 ml of methanol and refluxed until the reaction mass dissolved (15 minutes). The solution was then cooled to 20.degree. C. in a cold water bath. Crystals began to form at about 40.degree. C. The cold slurry was filtered and the filter cake was rinsed with a little cold, fresh methanol. The filter cake was air dried overnight. The dry product weighed 12.7 g (81.4% yield), had a melting range of 186.degree.-190.degree. C. and its infrared scan (nujol mull) contained carbonyl bands at 1660, 1620, 1570 and 1500 cm.sup.-1.
The methanol filtrate was concentrated on a rotating evaporator leaving 4.5 g of a viscous liquid. Liquid chromatography indicated that this viscous liquid was a mixture of the product and the two starting materials, suitable for recycling.
Method B
Into a 3-necked 250 ml flask was introduced HALS-0 (12.2 g, 0.05 mole) and 150 ml THF. The flask was equipped with a magnetic stirrer, a thermometer, a reflux condenser and a dropping funnel containing butyric anhydride (7.9 g, 0.05 mole) diluted to 15 ml with THF. The stirrer was activated and the butyric anhydride solution was added dropwise over 7 minutes. The reaction temperature slowly rose from 18.degree. C. to 22.degree. C. The reaction mixture was then heated to reflux in an oil bath for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was cooled to 60.degree. C. and the insoluble material was filtered off and air dried. The dry product weighed 9.2 g and had a melting range of 185.degree.-192.degree. C. The product was slurried in refluxing isopropanol for 10 minutes, refiltered and dried. The dry product weighed 6.5 g (40% yield), had a melting range of 185.degree.-191.degree. C. and its infrared scan was essentially the same as the product prepared in Method A.
The THF and isopropanol filtrates were stripped to dryness on a rotating evaporator. Infrared and liquid chromatography scans indicated the residues were primarily the butyric acid salt of the desired product plus a small amount of the desired product.
EXAMPLE XXXVII
Preparation of 2,2'-Di-[N-(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinyl)oxamoyl]adipic dihydrazide ##STR62##
Into a 3-necked 100 ml flask was introduced adipic dihydrazide (4.35 g, 0.025 mole) and a 55% solution of methyl N-(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinyl)oxamate in anhydrous methanol (22.0 g, 0.05 mole). The flask was equipped with a magnetic stirrer, a thermometer and a Dean Stark trap equipped with a reflux condenser. The flask was placed in an oil bath and the reaction mixture was heated to reflux. The reaction mixture was refluxed 1/2 hour after which the methanol was slowly distilled off by gradually draining the Dean Stark trap. The reaction was refluxed for approximately 4 hours before the distillation was stopped. The reaction mixture was diluted with 50 ml of methanol, refluxed 5 minutes and cooled to 60.degree. C. The white solid that had formed was filtered off, rinsed with fresh methanol and air dried. The dry product weighed 12.6 g (84.6% yield) and had a melting range of 165.degree.-175.degree. C. The infrared scan of the product contained carbonyl bands at 1670, 1625 (weak), 1585 and 1500 cm.sup.-1.
EXAMPLES XXXVIII-XLVII
Preparation of 1-[N-(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinyl)oxamoyl]-2-acylhydrazines ##STR63##
Examples XXXVIII-XLVII were prepared using Method A of Example XXXVI. Into a 3-necked 250 ml flask was introduced 0.05 mole of the appropriate hydrazide and a 55% solution of methyl N-(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinyl)oxamate in anhydrous methanol (22.0 g, 0.05 mole). The flask was equipped with a magnetic stirrer, a thermometer and a Dean Stark trap equipped with a reflux condenser. The flask was placed in an oil bath and the reaction mixture was heated to reflux. The methanol was slowly distilled off by gradually draining the Dean Stark trap. After the methanol distillation stopped, the reaction mixture was heated an additional 30-60 minutes at 90.degree.-110.degree. C. The reaction mixture was then carefully diluted with 50-100 ml of methanol and was allowed to reflux 15-30 minutes. If the product did not dissolve in the hot methanol, it was isolated by filtration. If the product was soluble in hot methanol, attempts were made to crystallize it out of methanol by cooling the methanol solution in a freezer (-5.degree. C.). If the product would not crystallize out of methanol, the methanol was stripped off under vacuum on a rotating evaporator. A vacuum pump and a heat gun were employed to drive off the last traces of methanol, thereby converting the residue from a sticky viscous liquid to a hard crystalline solid. The solid was then scraped out of the evaporating flask and pulverized with a mortar and pestle. The results are summarized in Table III.

EXAMPLE XLVIII
Preparation of the Valetic Acid Salt of 1-[N-(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinyl)oxamoyl]-2-valeroylhydrazine ##STR66##
Into a 3-necked 500 ml flask was introduced HALS-0 (24.2 g, 0.1 mole) and 300 ml of THF. The flask was equipped with a magnetic stirrer, a thermometer, a reflux condenser and a dropping funnel containing valeric anhydride (18.6 g, 0.1 mole). The stirrer was activated and the anhydride was added over 15 minutes. The temperature gradually rose from 18.degree. C. to 25.degree. C. The reaction mixture was heated to reflux in an oil bath for 1 hour. The hot reaction mixture (60.degree. C.) was filtered to remove some insoluble material.
The filter cake weighed 1.6 g after drying and its infrared scan was the same as the product prepared in Example XXXIX indicating it was the uncomplexed 1-[N-(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinyl)oxamoyl]-2-valeroylhydrazine.
The THF filtrate was concentrated to dryness on a rotating evaporator under reduced pressure. The residue was slurried in 100 ml of isopropanol, filtered and the filter cake was dried. The dry product weighed 36.6 g and had a melting range of 155.degree.-170.degree. C. A second crop of 2.4 g was obtained by stripping off the isopropanol, slurrying the residue in hexane and filtering off the solid product. The infrared scans of the two crops showed a very strong carbonyl band at 1645 cm.sup.-1 with a weak shoulder at 1660 cm.sup.-1, a broad carbonyl at 1550 cm.sup.-1 and sharp weaker bands at 1520 and 1490 cm.sup.-1. The combined yield was 39.0 g or a 91.3% yield for the acid salt. A TGA scan of the product indicated it lost 27% (theoretrical is 24%) of its weight upon heating from 150.degree. C. to 260.degree. C. The TGA scan indicated that the salt dissociated upon heating and slowly evolved valeric acid.

C. and its infrared scan (nujol mull) contained a very strong, sharp carbonyl band at 1650 cm.sup.-1 and weaker carbonyl bands at 1620, 1540 and 1490 cm.sup.-1. A TGA scan of the product indicated it lost 28% (theoretical is 25.5%) of its weight upon heating from 150.degree. to 260.degree. C. The TGA scan indicated that the salt dissociated upon heating and slowly evolved hexanoic acid.
EXAMPLE L

After stirring for two hours at room temperature, the reaction mixture solidified. The reaction mixture was allowed to stand overnight and the solid product was filtered off the next morning. After drying, the product weighed 32.2 g and had a melting range of 140.degree.-150.degree. C.
An additional 7.3 g of product was isolated by concentrating the THF filtrate, slurrying the residue in isopropanol, filtering off and drying the insoluble material. The total yield was 39.5 g (81.5% yield).
The infrared scan of the product contained a very strong, sharp carbonyl band at 1660 cm.sup.-1 with weaker carbonyl bands at 1615, 1545 and 1490 cm.sup.-1. A TGA scan of the product indicated it lost 30% (theoretical is 27%) of its weight upon heating from 150.degree. C. to 260.degree. C. The TGA scan indicated that the salt dissociated upon heating and slowly evolved heptanoic acid.
EXAMPLES LI-XCVII
Preparation, Weathering and Evaluation of Tensile Bars Containing Derivatives of HALS Substituted Amic Acid Hydrazides
Dry blends of Himont.TM. 6501 polypropylene, various HALS amic acid hydrazide derivatives and optionally a small amount of a hindered phenol antioxidant (Irganox.TM. 1076) were prepared in a polyethylene container (for composition, see Table IV). The blends were shaken well to insure a good dispersion of the additives in the polypropylene. The blends were then extruded on a Brabender Prep Center Extruder Model No. 1340 having a 11/4 inch screw diameter with a length to diameter ratio of 25:1. The extruder was operated at a screw speed of 30 RPM and all of the heating zones were controlled at 200.degree. C. The first 100 g of extrudate were used to purge out the extruder between runs and was discarded. The remaining extrudate was air cooled and pelletized. The concentration of the 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinyl group in the polypropylene was approximately 0.3%. The concentration of the Irganox.TM. 1076 (when used) was approximately 0.25%. UV-Chek.TM. AM-340 was included in some blends as a synergist at a concentration of 0.22%.
The pellets were injection molded in a Newbury 25 ton injection molding machine at 400.degree. F. into 73/8".times.3/4".times.1/8" tensile bars.
A control sample containing only Irganox.TM. 1076 was included for comparison. Control samples containing Irganox.TM. 1076 and Ciba-Geigy's Chimasorb.TM. 944 and Tinuvin.TM. 770 were also included for comparison.
The tensile bars were placed in a QUV Accelerated Weather Tester (Q Panel company) for various exposure times. The QUV operated with an 8 hour light cycle using UV-B bulbs at 60.degree. C. and a 4 hour condensation cycle at 50.degree. C. Samples were placed in the QUV and withdrawn periodically at the same time of day. The tensile bars were pulled on an instrumented Instron (Model 4204) according to ASTM Procedure 638. The minimum QUV exposure time interval required to obtain a brittle break in the Instron test was determined. A result was considered a brittle break when the tensile bar snapped before 15% elongation was obtained.
The QUV time interval required to generate spotting and clouding of the surface of the tensile bars was also noted. The results are summarized in Table IV.
Tensile bars were also exposed to UV-A bulbs in a QUV under the same conditions for 60 days. A few were also tested after longer intervals. The tensile bars were then pulled on the Instron. A brittle break was considered a failure and greater than 15% elongation was considered passing. These results are also summarized in Table IV.

Preparation of 1-[N-(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinyl)oxamoyl]-2-(1,2,2,6,6-pentamethyl-4-piperidinyloxycarbonyl)hydrazine ##STR69##
Method A
Preparation of Phenyl 1,2,2,6,6-Pentamethyl-4-piperidinyl Carbonate
Into a 500 ml 3-neck flask was added 17.1 grams (0.1 mole) 1,2,2,6,6-pentamethyl-4-piperidinol and 300 mls of methyl t-butyl ether (MtBE). The flask was equipped with a magnetic stirrer, thermometer, reflux condenser and dropping funnel containing 15.6 grams (0.1 mole) phenyl chloroformate. The phenyl chloroformate was slowly added to the 1,2,2,6,6-pentamethyl-4-piperidinol solution without any appreciable exotherm. Then 11.2 grams (0.1 mole) of 1,4-diazabicyclo(2.2.2)octane (DABCO) was added at room temperature. The temperature rose to 50.degree. C. and a precipitate formed. The reaction was stirred for 2 hours, an additional 2 grams of DABCO and 1.25 grams of phenyl chloroformate was added, the reaction heated to reflux and refluxed 2 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled, transferred to a separatory funnel and washed with water to remove DABCO, DABCO hydrochloride and a small amount of 1,2,2,6,6-pentamethyl-4-piperidinol. The product was then extracted out of the MtBE layer with 100 mls of 5% HC1 diluted with water to 400 mls. The MtBE layer which contained diphenyl carbonate was discarded. The acid layer was made basic with 100 ml of 10% NaOH. The product was extracted out of the aqueous layer with 200 ml MtBE. The MtBE extract was washed with 100 ml 5% NaHCO.sub.3, dried over anhydrous MgSO.sub.4, filtered and the MtBE stripped off on a rotating evaporator under reduced pressure. The residue was a white solid weighing 20.4 grams (70.1% crude yield) which had a melting point of 63.degree.-67.degree. C. Liquid chromatography indicated the product was essentially one component. The infrared spectrum contained a strong carbonyl peak at 1755 cm.sup.-1.
Method B
Preparation of 1,2,2,6,6-Pentamethyl-4-piperidinyl Carbazate
Into a 250 ml 3-neck flask was added 20.0 grams (0.069 mole) of phenyl 1,2,2,6,6-pentamethyl-4-piperidinyl carbonate and 100 mls of methanol. The flask was equipped with a magnetic stirrer, thermometer, reflux condenser and dropping funnel containing 3.8 grams (0.076 mole) of 64% aqueous hydrazine. The hydrazine was added slowly to the stirring methanol solution at room temperature. There was a slight exotherm. The reaction mixture was stirred for 5 hours at room temperature at which point liquid chromatography indicated the reaction was complete. The methanol was stripped off on a rotating evaporator under reduced pressure and the residue was dissolved in 150 ml MtBE. The MtBE solution was washed 3 times with 25 ml portions of 5% NaOH saturated with sodium chloride to remove the phenol that was generated. The MtBE layer was dried over anhydrous MgSO.sub.4, filtered and the MtBE stripped off on a rotating evaporator under reduced pressure. The residue was a white solid (m.p. 90.degree.-94.degree. C.) weighing 14.3 grams (90.5% crude yield). Liquid chromatography indicated the product was one component. The infrared spectrum contained a strong carbonyl peak at 1710 cm.sup.-1 and a moderate peak at 1625 cm.sup.-1.

Into a 100 ml 3-neck flask was added 7.3 grams (0.0318 mole) of 1,2,2,6,6-pentamethyl-4-piperidinyl carbazate, 12.9 grams (0,032 mole) of a 60% solution of ethyl N-(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinyl)oxamate in methanol and 15 ml of methanol. The flask was equipped with a magnetic stirrer, thermometer and a Dean Stark trap with reflux condenser. The flask was placed in a hot oil bath and heated to reflux. The methanol was distilled off through the Dean Stark trap and the residue was heated for 4 hours at 75.degree.-80.degree. C. Liquid chromatography of the residue indicated that the reaction had proceeded to 85-90% of completion. The reaction was cooled to 50.degree. C. and 50 ml of methanol was added to dissolve the product. The methanol solution was cooled in the freezer (-10.degree. C.) overnight and the next day the crystals that formed were filtered off and air dried. The dry crystals weighed 3.1 grams and melted at 165.degree.-170.degree. C. A liquid chromatography scan indicated the presence of only one component. The infrared spectrum of the product contained a weak carbonyl peak at 1740 cm.sup.-1 and strong, sharp carbonyl peaks at 1600 and 1685 cm.sup.-1. A second crop of 4.5 grams was obtained by concentrating the filtrate to about 25 ml, cooling and filtering off the solids that formed. The filtrate was stripped to dryness, leaving 7.0 grams of product which was contaminated with small amounts of the starting materials.

COMPARATIVE EXAMPLE
It is well known that many hindered amine light stabilizers, especially in the presence of hindered phenol antioxidants, discolor polyolefins they are stabilizing upon exposure to high temperatures. The following example compares the discoloration of polypropylene tensile bars containing the compounds of U.S. Pat. No. 4,824,884 (assigned to the present assignee) and tensile bars containing equivalent amounts of the compounds of the present invention upon heat aging at various temperatures and time periods. The compounds were compared on the basis of their ability at low concentrations to stabilize polypropylene with reduced discoloration when polypropylene tensile bars containing the indicated stabilizers were exposed to high temperatures.
All of the tensile bars were prepared in accordance with the method described above for Examples LI-XCVII. The tensile bars were heat aged in a Blue M.TM. forced air oven at the indicated temperatures and time intervals. The Yellowness Index values were determined on a Colorgard System/05.TM. colorimeter manufactured by Pacific Scientific. The tensile bars were prepared and tested both with and without the presence of a secondary antioxidant as indicated in the following tables.
Tables A and B qualitatively demonstrate the discoloration of tensile bars containing the compounds of U.S. Pat. No. 4,824,884 upon heat aging at 140.degree. C. in both the presence and absence of antioxidants.
In order to contrast the compounds of the present invention from those of U.S. Pat. No. 4,824,884, Table C qualitatively demonstrates the comparatively slow buildup of color in tensile bars containing compounds falling within the scope of the present invention upon heat aging at 135.degree. C. for up to 25 days. Similarly, Table D demonstrates the slow increase in color buildup in the tensile bars containing the compounds of the present invention over 50 and 100 day periods at 135.degree. C. The results set forth in Tables C and D indicate that no significant difference in color buildup results whether the sample contains an antioxidant or not.
Tables E and F quantitatively illustrate the difference between the present compounds and those of U.S. Pat. No. 4,824,884 with respect to the change in Yellowness Index (.DELTA.YID) upon heat aging at 120.degree. C. for 1 and 3 days and 140.degree. C. for 3 and 6 days both with and without the concomittant use of secondary antioxidants.

As can be seen from the results set forth in Tables A-F, the tensile bars containing compounds of the present invention demonstrated significantly less discoloration than those containing the compounds of U.S. Pat. No. 4,824,884. For example, a comparison of the results demonstrated in Tables A-B versus that set forth in Tables C-D, clearly shows that the polypropylene tensile bars containing the present compounds were less discolored after heat aging for periods of up to 100 days. It is noted that the heat aging tests conducted on the tensile bars containing the present compounds (Tables C and D) were conducted at a temperature 5.degree. C. lower than those conducted on the tensile bars containing the comparative compounds (Tables A and B). However, the resulting differences in discoloration were so great that the temperature variation is not significant.
A comparison of the results set forth in Tables E and F clearly shows that the Yellowing Index increased much faster and to a much greater degree in the tensile bars containing the compound of the U.S. Pat. No. 4,824,884 than those containing the present compounds, whether antioxidants are present or not.
The present invention may be embodied in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential attributes thereof and, accordingly, reference should be made to the appended claims, rather than to the foregoing specification as indicating the scope of the invention.
