Oligoesters containing polyalkylpiperidine groups

The invention relates to oligomeric esters formed from dicarboxylic acids and dialcohols and containing at least one polyalkylpiperidine group, and to the use of these compounds as light stabilisers for organic material.
Polyesters containing polyalkylpiperidine groups and having a molecular weight (Mn) of about 1000 to 5000 have already been described in German Offenlegungsschrift No. 2,719,131 as valuable light stabilisers for plastics. Compared with low-molecular polyalkylpiperidine derivatives, these polymeric light stabilisers have the advantage of lower volatility and extractability. They are prepared by subjecting to polycondensation approximately equimolar amounts of a dicarboxylic acid or dialkyl esters thereof with a diol, at least one of the two components containing a polyalkylpiperidine radical. The end groups of these polyesters are the functional groups of the starting materials, i.e. hydroxyl groups and carboxyl or alkyl carboxylate groups. A general disadvantage of this method of preparation is the poor reproducibility in the molecular weight of the polyesters prepared. In addition, the functional end groups can exercise an interfering action for certain end uses.
As a further development of the inventive idea of providing polymeric light stabilisers, it has therefore been proposed in European Pat. No. A1-2005 and U.S. Pat. No. 4,234,707 to block the end groups by the addition of a monofunctional compound during or after the preparation of the oligomeric polyester, and thus to limit the molecular weight and to obtain products having a reproducible molecular weight. Oligomeric polyesters having a molecular weight (Mn) of about 2000 to 3000 are thus obtained by adding 5 to 20 mole % of a monocarboxylic acid ester or of a monoalcohol to the polycondensation reaction. The oligomeric polyesters described which are prepared by this process are brittle resins which soften at relatively low temperatures.
It is desirable for certain purposes to have stabilisers which have an even lower molecular weight, but which still possess the advantages of low volatility and extractability. Products of this type are desirable, for example, for more rapid incorporation into the polymers to be stabilised. For certain purposes it is also desirable to have liquid stabilisers, for example for use in lacquers. However, it is no longer possible to prepare such extremely low-molecular polycondensation products in a reproducible manner by the process of preparation described above, using approximately equimolar amounts of dicarboxylic acid and diol.
It has been found that polyesters containing polyalkylpiperidine groups and having an extremely low degree of polycondensation can be prepared in a simple manner by employing, in their preparation by polycondensation from a dicarboxylic acid ester and a diol, one of the two components in a molar excess of 33 to 100%, and, if necessary, subjecting the resulting oligoesters to after-treatment by reaction with an amount of a monofunctional compound corresponding to the end groups.
This process gives products which have the desired combination of properties, of good solubility in the substrate and of low volatility and extractability. These oligoesters have the formula I or II ##STR3## in which n has a value for 1 to 3, R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are divalent organic radicals, at least one of which contains a polyalkylpiperidine radical of the formula III ##STR4## in which R is hydrogen or C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl, and E and E' are end groups.
As in every polytondensation reaction, the products formed are not single-substance compounds, but mixtures of compounds having different degree of polycondensation. The value n indicated is, therefore, an average value and is not an integer in most cases. However, in the oligoester mixtures formed, a compound having n=1 or 2 or 3 can be present in a predominant amount, if the ratio of the starting components is suitably selected.
If two different diols or the diesters of two different dicarboxylic acids are used as the starting component, co-oligoesters of the formula I or II in which the groups R.sup.1 or R.sup.2 are different from one another are obtained. These co-oligoesters are also a subject of the invention.
The end groups E in formula I can be hydrogen, in which case the compounds are oligoester-diols. If the latter are subjected to after-treatment with a monofunctional compound, the radical of this monofunctional compound becomes the end group E. The situation concerning the end groups E' is analogous. Without after-treatment, these groups are alkoxy groups, and the products (of the formula II) are oligoester-diesters. If these products are subjected to after-treatment with monofunctional compounds, the radical of the monofunctional compound becomes the end group E'.
The invention relates, in particular, to oligoesters of the formula I or II in which n has a value from 1 to 3, R.sup.1 is C.sub.2 -C.sub.18 -alkylene, C.sub.4 -C.sub.8 -alkenylene, C.sub.4 -C.sub.20 -monooxaalkylene, C.sub.4 -C.sub.20 -polyoxaalkylene, C.sub.5 -C.sub.8 -cycloalkylene, C.sub.7 -C.sub.10 -cycloalkane-dialkylene, C.sub.8 -C.sub.20 -arenedialkylene or a divalent radical of the formulae ##STR5## in which m is 2 to 10, X is a group --O-- or --NR.sup.5 --, Y is C.sub.2 -C.sub.12 -alkylene, C.sub.4 -C.sub.12 -alkylene which is interrupted by one or two --O-- or --NH-- groups, cycloalkylene, C.sub.6 -C.sub.12 -arylene or -phenylene-Z-phenylene- in which Z is --O--, --CH.sub.2 -- or --SO.sub.2 --, R.sup.2 is a direct bond, C.sub.1 -C.sub.18 -alkylene, C.sub.2 -C.sub.6 -alkenylene, C.sub.5 -C.sub.8 -cycloalkylene, C.sub.5 -C.sub.8 -cycloalkenylene, C.sub.6 -C.sub.12 -arylene, C.sub.7 -C.sub.12 -aralkylene or a divalent radical of the formulae ##STR6## in which p is 1 or 2, E is hydrogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.8 -alkyl, cyclohexyl, benzyl or an acyl group of the formula R.sup.7 --CO--, R.sup.8 --O--CO-- or (R.sup.9)(R.sup.10)N--CO-- and E' is a group R.sup.11 O-- or (R.sup.12)(R.sup.13)N-- and wherein R.sup.3 is hydrogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 -alkyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.7 -alkoxymethyl, phenoxymethyl or tolyloxymethyl, R.sup.4 is hydrogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.8 -alkyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.8 -alkanoyl, C.sub.3 -C.sub.6 -alkenoyl, C.sub.7 -C.sub.12 -phenylalkyl or C.sub.3 -C.sub.5 -alkenylmethyl, R.sup.5 is hydrogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.12 -alkyl, cyclohexyl, phenyl, benzyl, phenylethyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.8 -alkanoyl, C.sub.3 -C.sub.6 -alkenoyl or benzoyl, R.sup.6 is C.sub.2 -C.sub.12 -alkylene, C.sub.4 -C.sub.8 -alkenylene or xylylene, R.sup.7 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.12 -alkyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.5 -alkenyl, C.sub.5 -C.sub.8 -cycloalkyl, C.sub.6 -C.sub.10 -aryl, C.sub.7 -C.sub.12 -phenylalkyl or a group of the formula IV ##STR7## R.sup.8 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.12 -alkyl, allyl, cyclohexyl or phenyl, R.sup.9 is hydrogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.8 -alkyl, allyl, cyclohexyl, phenyl or C.sub.7 -C.sub.10 -alkylphenyl and R.sup.10 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.8 -alkyl, allyl, cyclohexyl, phenyl or C.sub.7 -C.sub.10 -alkylphenyl, or R.sup.9 and R.sub.10, together with the N atom to which they are attached, form a 5-membered to 7-membered heterocyclic ring, R.sup.11 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.12 -alkyl, C.sub.3 -C.sub.5 -alkenylmethyl, C.sub.5 -C.sub.8 -cycloalkyl, phenyl, C.sub.7 -C.sub.10 -alkylphenyl, C.sub.7 -C.sub.12 -phenylalkyl, C.sub.3 -C.sub.12 -alkoxyalkyl, a group --(CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 O).sub.m --CH.sub.3, a group of the formula IV or a group of the formula V ##STR8## R.sup.12 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.12 -alkyl, allyl, cyclohexyl, phenyl, benzyl, C.sub.3 -C.sub.12 -alkoxyalkyl, C.sub.4 -C.sub.12 -dialkylaminoalkyl, a group of the formula IV or a group of the formula VI ##STR9## and R.sup.13 is hydrogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.12 -alkyl, allyl, cyclohexyl or a group of the formula IV, and to co-oligomers thereof.

The oligoesters can be prepared in solution or without a solvent. Suitable solvents are, in particular, hydrocarbons, such as toluene, xylene, tetralin, decalin or ligroin. The reaction is preferably carried out in the presence of a transesterification catalyst, for example a tetraalkyl titanate, an alkali metal amide, hydride or alkoxide or a dialkyl-tin oxide.
The reaction temperature required for the polycondensation is 80.degree. to 230.degree. C.; the polycondensation is preferably carried out at 120.degree. to 180.degree. C.
The two components can be mixed together at the start or the component used in a less than equivalent quantity is added dropwise in the course of the reaction. The alcohol formed from the ester is distilled off continuously during the reaction in order to displace the equilibrium of the transesterification reaction towards the oligoester. The progress of the reaction can be followed on the basis of the amount of alcohol distilled off. When the calculated amount of the alcohol has been distilled off, the reaction mixture is allowed to cool. The oligoester obtained can be purified by filtration through fuller's earth, silica gel or other adsorptive agents. It can, however, also be used or subsequently reacted with a monofunctional reagent without purification.
If the end groups of the oligoester primarily obtained are hydroxyl groups (formula I, E=H), the monofunctional reagent used can be, for example, an alkyl, cyclohexyl or benzyl halide in the presence of a stoichiometric amount of an alkali (for example in the form of NaH or C.sub.2 H.sub.5 ONa). Ether end groups (E=alkyl, cyclohexyl or benzyl) are thus formed. If the reagent used is a monocarboxylic acid chloride, anhydride or alkyl ester, ester end groups (E=R.sup.7 CO--) are obtained. If the reagent used is a chlorocarbonate R.sup.8 O--COCl, carbonate end groups (E=R.sup.8 O--CO--) are obtained. If a carbamoyl chloride (R.sup.9)(R.sup.10)N--CO--Cl is used, carbamate end groups (E=(R.sup.9)(R.sup.10)N--CO--) are obtained. Other reagents which can react with hydroxyl groups can also be used in a similar manner.
If the end groups of the oligoester are alkoxycarbonyl groups (formula II, E'=--Oalkyl), these groups can be transesterified, for example with a hydroxyl compound R.sup.11 OH, or they are reacted with a primary or secondary amine and amide groups (E'=(R.sup.12)(R.sup.13)N--) are then obtained as end groups.
The reaction with a compound R.sup.11 OH can also be carried out during the preparation of the oligoester. In this case the compound R.sup.11 OH can be added either before or during the polycondensation reaction.

The stabilisation of polyolefins, styrene polymers, polyamides, polyurethanes and lacquer resins, such as alkyd, acrylic and polyester resins, is of particular importance.
The oligomeric stabilisers are added to the polymers in a concentration of 0.01 to 5% by weight, calculated on the material to be stabilised. Preferably, 0.1 to 2% by weight of the compounds, calculated on the material to be stabilised, are incorporated into the latter.
The incorporation can be effected during or after polymerisation, for example by mixing the compounds, and, if appropriate, further additives, into the melt by the methods customary in the art, before or during shaping, or by applying the dissolved or dispersed compounds to the polymer, if appropriate with subsequent evaporation of the solvent.
The oligoesters can also be added to the polymers to be stabilised in the form of a masterbatch containing these compounds in a concentration of, for example, 2.5 to 25% by weight.
The invention also relates, therefore, to the polymers which have been stabilised by adding 0.01 to 5% by weight of a compound of the formula I or II, and which can, if necessary, also contain other known and customary additives. The plastics thus stabilised can be used in a very wide variety of forms, for example as films, fibres, tapes, sections or binders for lacquers, adhesives or cements.

The copolymers according to the invention can also be used in the form of their complexes with heavy metal compounds, particularly nickel or cobalt compounds. Examples of these are complexes with nickel acetate, nickel stearate or nickel acetylacetonate.

The examples which follow illustrate the preparation of the oligoesters according to the invention and their use as light stabilisers. The temperatures indicated therein are quoted in degrees C.
EXAMPLE 1
Preparation of an oligoester by polycondensation in a molar ratio of 3:2
1.0 ml of tetrabutyl orthotitanate is added to a solution, heated at 130.degree.-135.degree., of 172.8 g (0.75 mole) of dimethyl sebacate in 700 ml of anhydrous xylene. 100.7 g (0.50 mole) of 1-hydroxyethyl-4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine (HETP) are then introduced continuously into this solution in the course of 4 hours, with stirring. The methanol split off by the progress of the tranesterification--and also some xylene--is removed continuously by distillation in a gentle stream of nitrogen. When the addition of the piperidine is complete, stirring is continued for a further 5 hours at 135.degree.-140.degree., in the course of which the remainder of the methanol and xylene distil off. The xylene is then removed completely by distillation in vacuo. The residue is taken up in 3:1 hexane/diethyl ether, 25 g of silica gel and 10 g of Tonsil AC are added, and the mixture is stirred for 30 minutes at room temperature. After filtration, the solvents are distilled off and the oligoester is freed from the last traces of solvent in a high vacuum.
The liquid oligoester thus obtained is virtually colourless and has a viscosity of 1970 cP at 40.degree.. The molecular weight (Mn), determined by vapour pressure osmometry, is 930. This corresponds to an oligoester of the formula ##STR11## in which n is 1.91.
The oligoesters listed in Table 1 were prepared analogously from the diesters and diols indicated.

EXAMPLE 2
Preparation of a co-oligoester
55.2 g (0.24 mole) of dimethyl sebacate, 10.4 g (0.06 mole) of dimethyl adipate, 40.3 g (0.20 mole) of HETP and 0.5 ml of tetrabutyl titanate are dissolved in 600 ml of anhydrous xylene and stirred, under nitrogen, for 8 hours at 135.degree.-140.degree., while the methanol formed and part of the xylene are removed by distillation. The remaining xylene is then removed by vacuum distillation, and the oily residue is dissolved in methylene chloride, the solution is filtered through silica gel and the filtrate is evaporated. The last traces of solvent are removed in a high vacuum. The oligoester which remains is an oily, nearly colourless liquid and has a molecular weight (Mn) of 930, determined by vapour pressure osmometry. (Oligoester No. 17).
A co-oligoester is obtained analogously from 0.2 mole of dimethyl sebacate, 0.1 mole of diethyl diethylmalonate and 0.2 mole of HEPT, in the form of a white mass having an Mn of 1170 (oligoester No. 18).
EXAMPLE 3
Polycondensation followed by reaction of the end groups
0.2 g of lithium amide is added to a solution, heated at 135.degree., of 32.44 g (0.15 mole) of dimethyl trimethyladipate (mixture of 2,2,4-trimethyl and 2,4,4-trimethyl isomers) in 300 ml of anhydrous xylene. 20.13 g (0.1 mole) of HETP are added to this solution in portions in the course of 4 hours, with stirring. The methanol liberated is removed continuously by distillation in a gentle stream of nitrogen. After a reaction time of a further 6 hours at 135.degree.-140.degree., free HETP can no longer be detected by chromatography. 19.93 g (0.1 mole) of 1-acetyl-4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine, 100 ml of xylene and 0.1 g of lithium amide are then added, and the transesterification is continued for a further 7 hours at 140.degree., while methanol and xylene are removed by distillation in a stream of nitrogen. After 3 hours at 150.degree. the mixture is cooled, the reaction product is dissolved in hexane, the solution is stirred with 8 g of silica gel for 30 minutes at approx. 20.degree., and the solvent is removed in vacuo and finally completely removed in a high vacuum.
The oligoester thus obtained has a viscosity of 335 cP at 120.degree.. The average molecular weight, determined by means of the vapour pressure method, is 1150. This corresponds to an oligoester of the formula ##STR19## in which n is 1.1.
The oligoesters listed in Table 2 were prepared in an analogous manner for the components indicated.

EXAMPLE 4
Stabilising a 2-layer metal effect paint
Aluminium sheets 0.5 mm thick are coated with an aluminium-pigmented base coat based on a polyester/cellulose acetobutyrate/melamine resin. A clear lacquer of the following composition is sprayed onto the wet base coat:
58.3 parts of Viacryl.RTM.VC 373 (acrylic resin made by Vianova, Vienna), 27.3 parts of Maprenal.RTM.MF 590 (melamine resin made by Hoechst AG, Frankfurt), 1.0 part of a 1% solution of a silicone resin in xylene, 4.0 parts of Solvesso.RTM.150 (a mixture of aromatic solvents), 5.4 parts of xylene, 4.0 parts of ethylglycol acetate, 0.5 part of a light stabiliser according to Table 3.
The amount of light stabiliser corresponds to 1% relative to the solids content of the lacquer. This clear lacquer has a viscosity of 21 seconds/DIN Cup 4. It is applied in a layer thickness of 40 .mu.m and is baked for 30 minutes at 130.degree. C.
The samples are subjected to weathering for 2000 hours in an UVCOn accelerated weathering apparatus made by Atlas, using a cycle of 4 hours' irradiation with UV at 60.degree. and 4 hours' weathering at 50.degree.. The 20.degree. gloss as specified in DIN 67,530 is measured after 1000 hours and after 2000 hours. In addition, the samples are investigated for crack formation at regular intervals under a stereomicroscope. The results are listed in Table 3.

EXAMPLE 5
Stabilising a polypropylene film
100 parts of polypropylene powder (Moplen.RTM., fibre grade, made by Montedison) are homogenised together with 0.2 part of octadecyl .beta.-(3,5-di-tert.-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)-propionate, 0.1 part of calcium stearate and 0.25 part of a stabiliser from Table 1 below in a Brabender plastograph at 200.degree. for 10 minutes. The composition thus obtained is taken as quickly as possible from the kneader and compressed to form a sheet 2-3 mm thick in a toggle plate press. A part of the resulting blank is cut out and compressed between two high-gloss hard aluminium foils by means of a hydraulic laboratory press for 6 minutes at 260.degree. to form a film 0.1 mm thick, which is immediately chilled in cold water. Sections are then punched out of the latter and exposed to illumination in a Xenotest 1200. These specimens are taken out of the exposure apparatus at regular intervals of time and their carbonyl content is tested in an IR spectrophotometer. The increase in the carbonyl extinction at 5.85 .mu.m during exposure is a measure of the photooxidative degradation of the polymer (cf. L. Balaban et al., J. Polymer Sci., Part C; 22 (1969), 1059-1071) and is, according to the invention, associated with a deterioration in the mechanical properties of the polymer. The time taken to reach a carbonyl extinction of 0.25, at which the comparison film is brittle, is taken as a measure of the protective action.
The volatility and ease of extraction with water were checked by (a) heating some of the samples at 120.degree. for 7 days in circulating air oven before exposure, and (b) by treating another fraction of the samples with water at 90.degree. for 7 days before exposure.
Table 4 shows the results without and with pretreatment of the samples.
