Abstract
The invention relates to novel compounds of the formula I ##STR1## in which the general symbols are as defined in claim 1, as stabilizers for organic materials against oxidative, thermal or light-induced degradation.
Description

The present invention relates to novel HALS phosphonites, to compositions comprising an organic material, preferably a polymer, and the novel HALS phosphonites, and to the use thereof for the stabilization of organic materials against oxidative, thermal or light-induced degradation.
Organic phosphites and phosphonites are known in industry as costabilizers, secondary antioxidants and processing stabilizers, inter alia for polyolefins; examples of such known phosphite and phosphonite stabilizers are given in R. Gachter/H. Muller (Eds.), Plastics Additives Handbook, 3rd Ed., p. 47, Hanser, Munich, 1990, and EP-A-356 688.
Hindered amines, including, in particular, compounds containing 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidyl groups, are preferably used as light stabilizers (hindered amine light stabilizers, HALS).
Phosphites or phosphonites containing HALS structural units are described, for example, by T. Konig et al, J. prakt. Chem. 334, 333-349 (1992), in U.S. Pat. No. 5,239,076, GB-A-2 247 241, DE-A-4 306 747 and FR-A-2 380 290.
There continues to be a demand for effective stabilizers for organic materials which are sensitive to oxidative, thermal and/or light-induced degradation.
It has now been found that a selected group of such HALS phosphonites is particularly suitable as stabilizers for organic materials which are sensitive to oxidative, thermal or light-induced degradation. Particular emphasis should be made of the suitability of said compounds as processing stabilizers for synthetic polymers.

The novel compounds of the formula I can be prepared in a manner known per se.
For example, and this is preferred, a dichlorophosphine of the formula IV is reacted with a phenol of the formula V ##STR16## in which n, R.sub.6, R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are as defined above, to give an intermediate of the formula VII, or a dichlorophosphine of the formula IV is reacted with a piperidinol of the formula VI in which R.sub.5 is as defined above, to give an intermediate of the formula VIII ##STR17##
The intermediate of the formula VII is subsequently reacted with a piperidinol of the formula VI, and the intermediate of the formula VIII is reacted with a phenol of the formula V to give the novel compounds.
Preferably, the dichlorophosphine of the formula IV is first reacted with a phenol of the formula V.
The intermediates of the formulae VII and VIII are expediently not isolated and are reacted, without purification, with a piperidinol of the formula VI or a phenol of the formula V with elimination of hydrochloric acid to give the novel compounds of the formula I.
If n is 1 in the compound of the formula IV, both the phenol of the formula V and the piperidinol of the formula VI are preferably employed in equimolar mounts with respect to the dichlorophosphine of the formula IV.
If n is 2 in the compound of the formula IV, two equivalents, with respect to the dichlorophosphine of the formula IV employed, of each of the phenol of the formula V and of the piperidinol of the formula VI are preferably used.
In the reaction of the intermediates of the formulae VII and VIII to give the novel compounds of the formula I, the piperidinol of the formula VI or the phenol of the formula V is expediently used in a slight excess.
The reaction of the dichlorophosphine of the formula IV in the presence of a mixture comprising a phenol of the formula V and a piperidinol of the formula VI likewise gives the novel compounds of the formula I.
The reaction is carried out in the melt or in the presence of a suitable organic, polar or apolar, aprotic solvent. This reaction is preferably carried out in the presence of a base at temperatures between -20.degree. C. and the boiling point of the solvent, in particular at temperature between 20.degree. and 150.degree. C.
Bases such as amines can simultaneously also be used as solvent.
The base can be employed in various amounts, from catalytic via stoichiometric amounts up to an excess of several times the molar amount with respect to the compounds of the formula IV, V or VI employed. The hydrogen chloride formed during the reaction is, if appropriate, converted through the base into chloride, which can be removed by filtration and/or washing with a suitable aqueous or solid phase; a second, water-immiscible solvent can also be employed here.

Other additives (stabilizers) which are likewise particularly preferred are benzofuran-2-ones, as described, for example, in U.S. Pat. No. 4,325,863, U.S. Pat. No. 4,338,244, U.S. Pat.

Preference is given to benzofuran-2-ones in which R'.sub.13 is hydrogen, alkyl having 1 to 12 carbon atoms, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, chlorine or a radical of the formula ##STR25## or --D--E, in which s, R'.sub.16, R'.sub.17, D and E are as defined above, and R'.sub.16 is, in particular, hydrogen, alkyl having 1 to 18 carbon atoms, cyclopentyl or cyclohexyl.
Preference is also given to benzofuran-2-ones in which R'.sub.11 is phenyl or phenyl which is substituted by 1 or 2 alkyl radicals having a total of at most 12 carbon atoms; R'.sub.12 is hydrogen; R'.sub.14 is hydrogen or alkyl having 1 to 12 carbon atoms; R'.sub.13 is hydrogen, alkyl having 1 to 12 carbon atoms, ##STR26## or --D--E; R'.sub.15 is hydrogen, alkyl having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, ##STR27## or R'.sub.15 together with R'.sub.14 forms a tetramethylene radical, where s, R'.sub.16, R'.sub.17, D and E are as defined at the outset.

The amount of benzofuran-2-ones additionally employed can vary within broad limits. For example, they can be present in the novel compositions in amounts of from 0.0001 to 5% by weight, preferably from 0.001 to 2% by weight, in particular from 0.01 to 2% by weight.
The compounds of the formula I and any further additives are incorporated into the polymeric, organic material by known methods, for example before or during shaping or alternatively by application of the dissolved or dispersed compounds to the polymeric, organic material, if necessary with subsequent evaporation of the solvent. The novel compounds of the formula I can also be added to the materials to be stabilized in the form of a master-batch, which contains these in, for example, a concentration from 2.5 to 25% by weight.
The novel compounds of the formula I can also be added before or during polymerization or before crosslinking.
The compounds of the formula I can be incorporated into the material to be stabilized in pure form or in encapsulated in waxes, oils or polymers.
The compounds of the formula I can also be sprayed onto the polymer to be stabilized. They are capable of diluting other additives (for example the conventional additives mentioned above) or their melts, so that they can also be sprayed onto the polymer to be stabilized together with these additives. A particularly advantageous method is the addition by spraying during deactivation of the polymerization catalysts, where, for example, the steam used for deactivation can be used for the spraying.
In the case of polyolefins polymerized in bead form, it may, for example, be advantageous to apply the novel compounds of the formula I, if desired together with other additives, by spraying.
The materials stabilized in this way can be used in a very wide variety of forms, for example as films, fibres, tapes, moulding compositions, profiles or as binders for paints, adhesives or adhesive cements.
As mentioned above, the organic materials to be protected are preferably organic polymers, particularly synthetic polymers. Thermoplastic materials, in particular polyolefins, are particularly advantageously protected. In particular, the excellent activity of the compounds of the formula I as processing stabilizers (heat stabilizers) should be emphasized. For this purpose, they are advantageously added to the polymer before or during processing thereof. However, other polymers (for example elastomers) or lubricants or hydraulic fluids can also be stabilized against degradation, for example light-induced or thermo-oxidative degradation. Elastomers are given in the above list of possible organic materials.
Suitable lubricants and hydraulic fluids are based, for example, on mineral or synthetic oils or mixtures thereof. The lubricants are known to the person skilled in the art and are described in the relevant specialist literature, for example in Dieter Klamann "Schmierstoffe und verwandte Produkte" [Lubricants and Related Products] (Verlag Chemie, Weingheim, 1982), in Schewe-Kobek, "Das Schmiermittel-Taschenbuch" [The Lubricant Handbook] (Dr. Alfred Huthig-Verlag, Heidelberg, 1974) and in "Ullmanns Enzyklopadie der technischen Chemie" [Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry], Vol. 13, pages 85-94 (Verlag Chemie, Weinheim, 1977).
A preferred embodiment of the present invention is therefore the use of compounds of the formula I for the stabilization of organic materials against oxidative, thermal or light-induced degradation.
The novel compounds of the formula I are distinguished by pronounced excellent hydrolysis stability and advantageous colouring behaviour, ie low discoloration of the organic materials during processing.
Organic materials which have been stabilized by means of the compounds of the present invention are particularly well protected against light-induced degradation.
The present invention therefore also relates to a process for the stabilization of an organic material against oxidative, thermal or light-induced degradation, which comprises incorporating or applying at least one compound of the formula I into or to this material.





The examples below illustrate the invention in greater detail. Parts and percentages are by weight.
EXAMPLE 1
Preparation of the compound (101) (Table 1).
A solution of 7.71 g (35.0 mmol) of 2,4-di-tert-butyl-6-methylphenol in 120 ml of toluene is added dropwise at 10.degree. C. to a stirred solution, under a nitrogen atmosphere, of 6.26 g (35.0 mmol) of phenyldichlorophosphine and 4.25 g (42.0 mmol) of triethylamine in 50 ml of toluene. The cloudy mixture obtained is stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. The reaction mixture is cooled to 10.degree. C., 4.25 g (42.0 mmol) of triethylamine are added, and a solution of 6.59 g (38.5 mmol) of 1,2,2,6,6-pentamethylpiperidin-4-ol in 30 ml of toluene is added dropwise. The white suspension is stirred at room temperature for 2.5 hours and filtered through Celite, and the filtrate is evaporated on a vacuum rotary evaporator. Chromatography of the residue on silica gel using the eluent system hexane/ethyl acetate 19:1 to 9:1 gives 10.0 g (57%) of compound (101) as a colourless oil (Table 1).
EXAMPLE 2
Preparation of compound (102) (Table 1).
5.4 ml (40.0 mmol) of phenyldichlorophosphine are added dropwise to a stirred solution, under a nitrogen atmosphere, of 8.81 g (40.0 mmol) of 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol in 28 ml (0.20 mol) of triethylamine. The yellow suspension is stirred at 95.degree. C. for 24 hours. The reaction mixture is subsequently diluted with 50 ml of toluene, and a solution of 7.5 g (44.0 mmol) of 1,2,2,6,6-pentamethylpiperidin-4-ol in 50 ml of toluene is added dropwise. The reaction mixture is stirred at 80.degree. C. for 10 hours. The suspension, cooled to room temperature, is filtered through Celite, and the filtrate is evaporated on a vacuum rotary evaporator. Chromatography of the residue on silica gel using the eluent system hexane/ethyl acetate 19:1 to 3:1 gives 5.5 g (37%) of compound (102). Crystallization from isopropanol gives a white powder, m.p. 85.degree.-87.degree. C. (Table 1).
EXAMPLE 3
Preparation of compound (103) (Table 1).
5.4 ml (40.0 mmol) of phenyldichlorophosphine are added dropwise at 10.degree.

The white suspension is stirred at room temperature for 1 hour and filtered through Celite, and the filtrate is evaporated on a vacuum rotary evaporator. The residue is taken up in 50 ml of toluene and re-filtered. Evaporation of the toluene on a vacuum rotary evaporator and drying of the residue in a high vacuum gives 14.7 g (86%) of compound (103), m.p. 47.degree. C. (Table 1).
EXAMPLE 4
Preparation of compound (104) (Table 1).
A solution of 12.34 g (56.0 mmol) of 2,4-di-tert-butyl-6-methylphenol in 80 ml of toluene is added dropwise at 10.degree.

EXAMPLE 5
Stabilization of polypropylene during multiple extrusion.
1.3 kg of polypropylene powder (.RTM.Profax 6501) which has been prestabilized by means of 0.025% of Irganox.RTM. 1076 (n-octadecyl (3-[3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl]propionate) (having a melt flow index of 3.2, measured at 230.degree. C. and 2.16 kg) are mixed with 0.05% of Irganox.RTM. 1010 (pentaerythrityl tetrakis [3-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propionate]), 0.05% of calcium stearate, 0.03% of dihydrotalcite [DHT 4A.RTM., Kyowa Chemical Industry Co., Ltd., Mg.sub.4.5 Al.sub.2 (OH).sub.13 CO.sub.3.3.5 H.sub.2 O] and 0.05% of the compound from Table 1. This mixture is extruded in an extruder having a barrel diameter of 20 mm and a length of 400 mm at 100 revolutions per minute, the three heating zones being set at the following temperatures: 260.degree., 270.degree., 280.degree. C. The extrudate is cooled by drawing through a water bath and subsequently granulated. These granules are re-extruded. After 3 extrusions, the melt flow index is measured (at 230.degree. C. and 2.16 kg). A large increase in the melt flow index means considerable chain degradation, ie poor stabilization. The results are shown in Table 2.

EXAMPLE 6
Stabilization of polyethylene during processing.
100 parts of polyethylene powder (Lupolen.RTM. 5260 Z) are mixed with 0.05 part of Irganox.RTM. 1010 (pentaerythrityl tetrakis[3-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propionate]) and 0.1 part of stabilizer from Table 1, and the mixture is compounded in a Brabender Plastograph at 220.degree. C. and 50 revolutions per minute. During this time, the compounding resistance is recorded continuously as torque. During the compound time, the polymer, after an extended constant time, begins to cross link, which is evident from the rapid increase in torque. Table 3 shows the time before significant increase in the torque as a measure of the stabilizer action. The longer this time, the better the stabilizer action.
