Description

BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to organosilicon compounds containing reactive amino groups, their preparation and their use.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The publication by K. Andrianov, Izv. Akad. Nauk. SSSR, Ser. Khim, Issue 2, 351-356 (1968) describes the reaction of isopropyldiallylamine or triallylamine and 1,3-dihydrotetramethyldisilazane or 1,3-dihydrotetramethyldisiloxane by means of hydrosilylation. In this reaction, the reactants are used in a molar ratio of from at least 2:1 to about 5:1 based on 1,3-dihydrotetramethyldisilazane or 1,3-dihydrotetramethyldisiloxane and isopropyldiallylamine or triallylamine used. The 1,3-dihydrotetramethyldisilazane or 1,3-dihydrotetramethyldisiloxane used reacts to a lesser extent (26-44%) in each case once with the isopropyldiallylamine or triallylamine used. For example, the reaction of triallylamine with 1,3-dihydrotetramethyldisiloxane gives tris�3-(1',1',3,3'-tetramethyldisiloxy)propyl!amine in a yield of only 21% as the only isolable compound which, however, contains no allyl groups but only Si-bonded hydrogen.

The publication by Du, Zuodong and Yu, Jing, Hecheng Xiangjiao Gongye 9(6), 388-92 (1986) describes silicone rubbers containing N,N-diallyl-.gamma.-aminopropyl side chains. Their synthesis proceeds via a hydrosilylation of the monofunctional heptamethylcyclotetrasiloxane with triallylamine to give heptamethyl-N,N-diallyl-.gamma.-aminopropylcyclotetrasiloxane which is reacted by ring opening to give the corresponding polymer (silicone rubber). This is a reaction between the molecular and monofunctional heptamethylcyclotetrasiloxane building block with a further molecular building block, the triallylamine, without danger of a crosslinking reaction or a build up of the chain. The synthesis of the silicone rubber takes place as a two-stage reaction via the circuitous route of hydrosilylation of the triallylamine on heptamethylcyclotetrasiloxane.

EP 342 518 B1 (issued on Nov. 30, 1994, General Electric Co.) describes a process for preparing nitrogensilicon compounds which are obtained by hydrosilylation of an olefinic amine on Si--H-functional polydiorganosiloxanes. The amine components used here are monoallylamines.

DE 43 44 082 C1 (issued on Dec. 22, 1994, Th. Goldschmidt AG) describes a process for preparing organopolysiloxanes containing secondary aminoalkyl groups bound to silicon via carbon. In this reaction, secondary aminoalkenes containing only one double bond per molecule are added onto Si--H-bearing organosilicon compounds by means of hydrosilylation with platinum catalysis. The resulting organopolysiloxanes containing secondary aminoalkyl groups bound to silicon via carbon can, optionally, be equilibrated with, for example, cyclic polyorganosiloxanes.

As catalysts which promote the addition of Si-bonded hydrogen onto aliphatic multiple bonds, the process of the invention can also make use of the same catalysts which could be used for promoting the addition of Si-bonded hydrogen onto aliphatic multiple bonds. The catalysts are preferably a metal from the platinum group or a compound or a complex of a platinum group metal. Examples of such catalysts are metallic and finely divided platinum which can be present on supports such as silicon dioxide, aluminum oxide or activated carbon, compounds or complexes of platinum such as platinum halides, e.g. PtCl.sub.4, H.sub.2 PtCl.sub.6 .multidot.6 H.sub.2 O, Na.sub.2 PtCl.sub.6 .multidot.4 H.sub.2 O, platinum-olefin complexes, platinum-alcohol complexes, platinum-alkoxide complexes, platinum-ether complexes, platinum-aldehyde complexes, platinum-ketone complexes including reaction products of H.sub.2 PtCl.sub.6 .multidot.6H.sub.2 O and cyclohexanone, platinum-vinylsiloxane complexes such as platinum-1,3-divinyl-1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane complexes with or without a content of detectable inorganically bound halogen, bis(.gamma.-picoline)platinum dichloride, trimethylenedipyridineplatinum dichloride, dicyclopentadieneplatinum dichloride, (dimethyl sulfoxide)(ethylene)platinum(II) dichloride, cyclooctadieneplatinum dichloride, norbornadiene-platinum dichloride, .gamma.-picolineplatinum dichloride, cyclopentadieneplatinum dichloride and also reaction products of platinum tetrachloride with olefin and primary amine or secondary amine or primary and secondary amine as described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,292,434, for example the reaction product of platinum tetrachloride dissolved in 1-octene with sec-butylamine, or ammonium-platinum complexes as described in EP-B 1 10 370. Furthermore, the hydrosilylation-promoting catalysts used can also be compounds and complexes of rhodium such as the rhodium complexes described in EP-A 476 426.

In the process of the invention, catalyst is used in amounts of from 2 to 300 ppm by weight (parts by weight per million parts by weight), preferably in amounts of from 5 to 100 ppm by weight, in each case calculated as elemental platinum and based on the total weight of amine of formula (X) and organosilicon compound containing Si-bonded hydrogen and comprising unit of formula (IX) which are used.

The process of the invention is preferably carried out at the pressure of the surrounding atmosphere, i.e. between 900 and 1100 hPa; however, it can also be carried out at higher or lower pressures.

The process of the invention is carried out at a temperature of from 70.degree. to 150.degree. C., preferably from 100.degree. to 130.degree. C.

Organic solvents which are inert in respect of the reaction of the invention can be used in the process of the invention, but this is not preferred.

Examples of such inert, organic solvents are toluene, xylene, isophorone, octane isomers, butyl acetate and isopropanol.

After the reaction of the invention is complete, the resulting organosilicon compound containing amino groups can be isolated by known methods, for example by removal, preferably by distillation, of excess amine and any organic solvent used.

The process of the invention has the advantage that it is simple to carry out and achieves a very high, complete conversion. Despite this simplicity of the reaction (procedure), the process of the invention also has the advantage that the proportion of aliphatically unsaturated radicals, the viscosity and the proportion of siloxane units of formulae (II), (III) and (IV) can be set in a targeted manner.

Furthermore, the process of the invention has the advantage that the organosilicon compounds containing at least one Si-bonded hydrogen are reacted polymeranalogously with the amines at relatively low temperature without danger of crosslinking or gelling via the further aliphatically unsaturated groups remaining on the amine and without inhibition of the catalyst, with short reaction times and without discoloration.

Optionally, the organosilicon compounds containing amino groups and obtained by the process of the invention can be equilibrated with organopolysiloxanes (1), preferably selected from the group consisting of linear organopolysiloxanes containing terminal triorganosiloxy groups, linear organopolysiloxanes containing terminal hydroxyl groups, cyclic organopolysiloxanes and copolymers of diorganosiloxane and monoorganosiloxane units, which, for example, makes it possible to set the desired molecular weight and also to achieve a targeted distribution of the amino groups in the molecule.

Preference is given to using as linear organopolysiloxanes containing terminal triorganosiloxy groups those of the formula

R.sup.10.sub.3 SiO(SiR.sup.10.sub.2 O).sub.u SiR.sup.10.sub.3 (XII), as linear organopolysiloxanes containing terminal hydroxyl groups those of the formula HO(SiR.sup.10.sub.2 O).sub.v H (XIII), as cyclic organopolysiloxanes those of the formula (SiR.sup.10.sub.2 O).sub.t (XIV), and as copolymers those comprising units of the formulae R.sup.10.sub.3 SiO.sub.1/2, R.sup.10.sub.2 SiO and R.sup.10 SiO.sub.3/2, where R.sup.10 can each be identical or different and have one of the meanings given for R, u is 0 or an integer from 1 to 1500, v is 0 or an integer from 1 to 1500 and t is an integer from 3 to 12.

In the equilibration which may be carried out, the ratios of the organopolysiloxanes (1) used and the organopolysiloxanes containing amino groups and prepared according to the invention are determined only by the desired proportion of the amino groups in the organopolysiloxanes produced in any such equilibration and by the desired mean chain length.

In the equilibration which may be carried out, preference is given to using basic catalysts which promote equilibration. Examples of such catalysts are benzyltrimethylammonium hydroxide, tetramethylammonium hydroxide, alkali metal hydroxide and alkaline earth metal hydroxide in methanolic solution and also silanolates. Preference is given to alkali metal hydroxides which are used in amounts of from 50 to 10,000 ppm by weight (parts per million), preferably from 500 to 2000 ppm by weight, in each case based on the total weight of the organosilicon compounds used.

The equilibration which may be carried out is preferably carried out at from 80.degree. to 150.degree. C. and at the pressure of the surrounding atmosphere, i.e. between 900 and 1100 hPa. However, it can also be carried out at higher or lower pressures.

The equilibration can, optionally, be carried out in a water-immiscible solvent such as toluene, but this is not preferred. If such organic solvents are used, amounts of from 5% to 20% by weight, based on the total weight of the organosilicon compounds used, are preferred.

Before the work-up of the mixture obtained in the equilibration according to the invention, the catalyst can be inactivated.

The organosilicon compounds containing amino groups of the invention or prepared according to the invention have the advantage that they are odorless and transparent.

Furthermore, the organosilicon compounds containing amino groups of the invention or prepared according to the invention have the advantage that they can be crosslinked using compounds containing Si-bonded hydrogen.

The organosilicon compounds prepared according to the invention have the advantage that they can be crosslinked by a free radical mechanism.

In addition, the organosilicon compounds containing amino groups prepared according to the invention have the advantage that they act as complexing ligands for transition metals.

The organosilicon compounds containing amino groups prepared according to the invention can be used for all purposes for which organosilicon compounds containing amino groups or aliphatically unsaturated radicals have been used, for example for textile finishing, fiber treatment, for carpets, leather finishing, for polish, in addition-crosslinkable systems such as paper coatings, and in rubbers.

Thus, for example, the organosilicon compounds prepared according to the invention can be used in compositions, in particular emulsions, for the treatment of organic fibers of all types, e.g. textiles of cotton and/or synthetic fibers, or leather, with such compositions of the invention usually leading to a permanent, hydrophilic finish on said materials with a soft feel which may be desired.

When used in textile finishing, the organosilicon compounds prepared according to the invention have the advantage that the textiles finished therewith display low yellowing, a very high hydrophilicity and a very good soft feel.
