Hydroperoxide derivatives of hydroxyethylated compounds and method of producing same

The invention relates to novel organic surface-active compounds, and more particularly to hydroperoxide derivatives of hydroxyethylated compounds, methods of producing same, and their use as initiators of emulsion polymerization and as emulsion stabilizers.
The proposed novel compounds, namely hydroperoxide derivatives of hydroxyethylated compounds, can be used as initiators for a variety of processes proceeding according to a radical mechanism, the processes can be carried out both in aqueous and organic media owing to solubility of said compounds both in water and in organic solvents.
Concurrent with the ability to generate, at elevated temperatures, free radicals, the hydroperoxide derivatives of hydroxyethylated compounds exhibit pronounced surface-active properties.
The combination of said properties makes it possible to employ hydroperoxide derivatives of hydroxyethylated compounds for initiating the radical processes proceeding in emulsions, said compounds therewith function simultaneously as emulsion stabilizers. Hydroperoxide derivatives of hydroxyethylated compounds can have the best practical significance when used for initiating the emulsion polymerization of vinyl monomers and stabilizing the latexes formed. Due to chemical bonding of the emulsifier with the surface of latex particles, the latexes obtained in the presence of hydroperoxide derivatives of hydroxyethylated compounds enjoy improved stability.
The proposed hydroperoxide derivatives of hydroxyethylated compounds can be used for carrying out reactions of emulsion polymerization with a monomer to water ratio of from 1:1 to 1:10, thus providing the emulsion stabilization and, at the same time, the generation of free radicals at rather low temperatures (40.degree.-80.degree. C.), with the concentration of the hydroperoxide derivatives of hydroxyethylated compounds making up from 2 to 10 percent of the monomer mass.
Unlike all known surface-active substances, the proposed hydroperoxide derivatives of hydroxyethylated compounds are substantially emulsifiers of a mixed type, i.e. they combine properties of both ionic and non-ionic surface-active substances.
Said feature permits their use as emulsifiers over a wide range of medium pH (5-11) at rather low concentrations (2 percent with respect to the monomer mass).
The hydroperoxide derivatives of hydroxyethylated compounds can also be used in combination with conventional emulsifiers to carry out emulsion polymerization, in an amount of from 10.sup.-2 -10.sup.-4 percent of the monomer mass, which is by 1-3 orders less than the concentration of conventional initiators.
As monomers styrene, butadiene and its derivatives, derivatives of acrylic and methacrylic acids, and other monomers can be used. The hydroperoxide derivatives can also be used to initiate graft-copolymerization of vinyl monomers and the diene-type elastomers when producing shockproof copolymers, for example ABS-plastics.
The implementation of a copolymerization process at said concentrations of hydroperoxide derivatives of hydroxyethylated compounds permits to synthesizing polymers practically free from the initiator residues, which can be favorable to the production of light- and weather-resistant materials. Moreover, the extremely low concentations of the initiator enable to obtaining extraordinarily high polymers (of molecular mass over 10.sup.7) enjoying radically new properties. For example, polystyrene of such a high molecular mass becomes shockproof. It should be also noted, that the polymeric dispersions obtained in the presence of the hydroperoxide derivatives of hydroxyethylated compounds exhibit resistance to electrolytic exposure and mechanical action as well.
With their novelty, the proposed compounds have no analogues in the prior art disclosed.
According to the invention, the hydroperoxide derivatives of hydroxyethylated compounds are those of the formula: ##STR6## with x=--O--, ##STR7## a--whole number from 10 to 30; b,c are absent;
R=n-alkyl from C.sub.8 to C.sub.20, secondary alkyl C.sub.14, C.sub.15, ##STR8## where R.sub.2 =n-alkyl from C.sub.8 to C.sub.12 ; ##STR9## where where R.sub.8 =--CH.sub.3 or H with R.sub.6,7,9 =H R.sub.5 is absent, or ##STR10## where R.sub.9 =--CH.sub.3 or H with R.sub.6,7,8 =H; if R.sub.5 is absent, R.sub.1 is acyclic and is ##STR11## R.sub.5 is absent;
R.sub.10 =n-alkyl of C.sub.1 to C.sub.9 if R.sub.3 .noteq.R.sub.4 ;
R.sub.5 =--CH.sub.2 --with R.sub.6,7,8,9 =H
R.sub.6 =--CH.sub.3 or H with R.sub.7,8,9 =H R.sub.5 is absent,
R.sub.7 =--CH.sub.3 or H with R.sub.6,8,9 =H R.sub.5 is absent,
with X=--O--, b--whole number from 8 to 24, (a+c)--whole number from 6 to 30,
R=R.sub.1
Said novel compounds are substantially surface-active agents comprising reactive functional groups capable of participating in radical reactions of polymerization.
Hydroperoxide derivatives of hydroxyethylated compounds constitute anionic-nonionic type emulsifiers since they combine in their structure a polyoxyethylene chain and a carboxy group capable of dissociation. Therefore, physical and chemical properties of these compounds depend, to a great extent, on the medium pH-value.
0.01 g of said substance dissolved in 100 g of water decreases the surface tension to 39-50 dynes/cm.
By the critical concentration of produced the micellar mass, the compounds obtained are close to nonionic surface-active substances. The critical concentration of micelle-formation is in the range from 0.003 g/l to 0.03 g/l.
The micellar mass varies from 240 000 to 140 000.
Hydroperoxide derivatives of hydroxyethylated compounds can be used over a wide temperature range, since the fogging temperature at pH of 5.8 is 100.degree. C.
Hydroperoxidic derivatives of hydroxyethylated compounds are explosion-proof even upon rapid heating up to 300.degree. C., decomposition occurs with no explosion. Thus there is no danger when handling them.
Identification of the end products is carried out according to the following factors:
a. elementary analysis for carbon and hydrogen;
b. determination of the acid number;
c. analysis for the active oxygen content by iodometric technique based on the interaction of hydroperoxides and SO.sub.2 ;
d. attribution of the functional groups detected in IR-spectra of the resulting products: carbonyl groups at 1740 cm.sup.-1 ;
e. determination of molecular mass by measuring the condensation heats;
The molecular mass of polymers was determined by viscometry with the use of values of the constants K and .alpha. in the Marc Howvink equation
[.eta.]=KM.sup..alpha. ;
for polysterene, K=2.7.times.10.sup.-4 and .alpha.=0.66 (25.degree. C., benzene as a solvent);
for polymethyl methacrylate K=0.468.times.10.sup.-4 and .alpha.=0.77 (25.degree. C., benzene);
for polybutyl acrylate K=6.85.times.10.sup.-3 and .alpha.=0.75 (25.degree. C., acetone);
for polychloroprene K=2.02.times.10.sup.-3 and .alpha.=0.89 (25.degree. C., benzene).
The size of the latex particles was determined by the light scattering method or by electronic microscopy.
Hydroperoxide derivatives of hydroxyethylated compounds are of interest as surface-active agents to be used as emulsifiers in the processes of emulsion polymerization of vinyl polymers and as initiators.
As emulsifiers, they ensure stability of the monomer's initial emulsion and resulting polymer dispersion.
As a result of the monomer emulsification in the presence of surface-active agents, at least two zones of dispersion are formed, namely a zone of coarse disintegration (drops of the monomer) corresponding to a regular emulsion, and a zone of colloid dispersion associated with micelle-formation and accumulation of the monomer in the emulsifier micelles due to solubilization.
Surface-active agents are among the major components responsible for the course of emulsion polymerization processes.
If, due to some factors or actions (temperature, addition of electrolyte, etc.), the colloid state of the emulsifier is changed, the kinetics of the emulsion polymerization and dispersity of the resulting latex are changed respectively.
The kinetics and topochemistry of the emulsion polymerization depend also on the character and concentration of the emulsifier.
Hydroperoxide derivatives of hydroxyethylated compounds are substantially emulsifiers having reactive functional groups capable of participating in the radical reactions of polymerization.
In case of uniform distribution of such an emulsifier in the system, localization of free-radical chemical reactions in the zone of adsorptive layers may occur. By practicing such reactions, one can find an approach to control elementary reactions of polymerization and to obtain polymers having novel properties, for example those of a high molecular mass.
A method for producing hydroperoxide derivatives of hydroxyethylated compounds is also proposed. According to the invention, the method of producing said compounds resides in that hydroxyethylated compounds having an end hydroxyl group of the general formula: ##STR12## at x=--O--; ##STR13## where a--whole number from 10 to 30; b,c--are absent,
R=n-alkyl, secondary alkyl C.sub.14, C.sub.15, ##STR14## where R.sub.2 =n-alkyl from C.sub.8 to C.sub.12,
at x=--O--; b--whole number from 8 to 24; (a+c)--whole numbers from 6 to 30 are caused to interact with the derivatives of dienes and maleic anhydride of the general formula: ##STR15## where R.sub.6 =H;--CH.sub.3 ;
R.sub.7 =H; --CH.sub.3 ;
R.sub.5 =--CH.sub.2 --or is absent; if R.sub.5 is absent, the free bonds of the carbon atoms are substituted by hydrogen atoms;
R.sub.8 =H; --CH.sub.3 ;
R.sub.9 =H; --CH.sub.3 with subsequent ozonization of the acylate in the medium or in the presence of aliphatic alcohols at a temperature of from -40 to +10.degree. C.
Selected for ozonization are aliphatic alcohols from C.sub.1 to C.sub.9.
Ozonization is carried out at lowered temperatures to avoid products of a deeper oxidation, which are usually formed at temperatures over +10.degree. C.
The proposed method for producing hydroperoxide derivatives of hydroxyethylated compounds is carried out as follows. The initial products, for example oxyethylated alcohol-octa/declyoxyeicosaethylene oxide and the Diels-Alder adduct, namely 4-methyl-cis-.DELTA.4-tetrahydrophthalic anhydride are introduced into a reactor under stirring. The process proceeds according to the following scheme: ##STR16##
The mixture of the isomers (5) and (6) is then ozonized in the medium of ethyl alcohol. ##STR17##
As will be apparent from the above scheme of the synthesis, the resulting hydroperoxide derivatives of hydroxyethylated compounds constitute a mixture of four isomers.
Acylation of the hydroxyethylated compounds is carried out at temperatures of 60.degree.-100.degree. C., preferably at 80.degree. C., with no solvent, at a molar ratio of hydroxyl to anhydride of 1.0:(1.2-2.0), preferably 1.0:1.5. Excessive anhydride is required to substitute completely the hydroxyl groups of the hydroxyethylated compounds. Acylation is checked for completeness by the acid number of the reaction mixture. To remove the unreacted anhydride, the resulting product is dissolved in water (a 10-30 percent solution is prepared) and the solution is then heated up to 60.degree.-80.degree. C., whereupon it separates into two layers. The acylate sinks into the lower layer whereas the hydrolyzed anhydride occupies the upper layer. Said reaction is carried out repeatedly, the purity of the separated product being checked by means of the acid number and elementary composition. Water from the acylate is removed by means of azeotropic distillation with benzene followed by drying at 50.degree.-70.degree. C. in a vacuum (1-5 torrs).
The acylate obtained is dissolved in aliphatic alcohol or a mixture of alcohol/chloroform (a 10-30 percent solution is prepared) and ozonization is carried out at 0.degree.-10.degree. C. until the ozone absorption ceases. The ozone-containing stream (ozone content of 4-5 percent by volume) is blown through the solution at a rate of 200-500 ml/min. Aliphatic alcohol may be supplied, for example, as methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, or n-nonyl alcohols. Subsequent to the ozonization, the resulting product is separated from the solution by distilling off the alcohol and chloroform at a temperature of 20.degree.-30.degree. C. and a lowered pressure (1-20 torrs). Purity of the product is checked by the active oxygen content and elementary composition.
Hydroperoxide derivatives are advantageous since they improve both process parameters and the properties of the polymers and polymeric dispersions based thereon, as well as obtain polymers enjoying novel properties.
Hydroperoxide derivatives of hydroxyethylated compounds provide initiators of low thermal stability (optimal operating temperature range is within 40.degree.-80.degree. C.). However, they are safe and convenient to handle. In particular, they are explosion-proof, and even upon rapid heating up to 300.degree. C., their decomposition occurs with no explosion. Hydroperoxide derivatives of hydroxyethylated compounds retain their initiating and surface-active properties when stored at temperatures of 0.degree.-10.degree. C. for a long time (at least six months). The temperature of decomposition of hydroperoxide derivatives can be reduced to 0.degree.-5.degree. C. owing to the ability of hydroperoxides to form redox systems in combination with various reducers (salts of metals of variable valence, amines, etc.).
As surface-active initiators, hydroperoxide derivatives of hydroxyethylated compounds are capable of initiating emulsion polymerization and, at the same time, to stabilizing the resulting polymeric dispersions which are resistant, due to the chemical bond of the emulsifier with the polymer, to electrolyte exposure and mechanical actions.
The use of hydroperoxide derivatives of polyalkylene oxides combined with regular emulsifiers as initiators enables emulsion polymerization to be carried out at extremely low concentrations of the initiator (10.sup.-2 -10.sup.-4 % of the monomer mass), thereby providing remarkable high polymers having practically no residual initiator.

Characteristic examples illustrative of the implementation of the method of producing novel compounds, namely hydroperoxide derivatives of hydroxyethylated compounds, are given herein-below.
