Synthetic polymers have been widely utilized in the art, in view of their excellent properties, in various forms or shapes, for example, filament, fibre, yarn, film, sheet, other molded article, latex and foam. However, these polymers have some drawbacks such as poor light- and heat-stabilities and the like. Stated illustratively, polyolefins and polyurethane elastomers frequently tend to undergo severe deterioration when exposed to light such as sunlight or ultraviolet ray, and polyvinyl chloride and polyvinylidene chloride frequently tend to deteriorate and become colored by the action of light and heat together with elimination of hydrogen chloride therefrom. Polyamides are also frequently subjected to photo-deterioration. For the purpose of stabilizing these synthetic polymers against such deterioration, there have heretofore been proposed in the art a number of stabilizers; for example, for polyolefins, benzotriazole compounds and benzophenone compounds; for polyurethanes, phenol compounds and benzophenone compounds; and for polyvinyl chloride and polyvinylidine chloride, lead salts such as basic lead silicate and tribasic lead maleate, and organotin compounds such as dibutyltin laurate and dibutyltin maleate.
Although such prior stabilizers are known to be considerably satisfactory, there still remained some problems to be improved.
Thus, numerous attempts have been made in the art to find and develop new and more effective stabilizers.
As a result of our extensive studies, it has now been found that the piperidine-spiro-hydantoin derivatives (I) of this invention can be satisfactorily prepared and exhibit a high stabilizing effect against photo- and thermal-deterioration of the synthetic polymers. It is, accordingly, an object of this invention to provide new and useful piperidine-spiro-hydantoin derivatives (I).
Another object is to provide synthetic polymer composition stabilized against photo- and thermal-deterioration thereof by having incorporated therein, in a sufficient amount to prevent the deterioration, at least one of the piperidine-spiro-hydantoin derivatives (I).
Other objects of this invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from the following description.
In one aspect of this invention, the piperidine-spiro-hydantoin derivatives (I) are all new substances unknown in the art.
Among the piperidine-spiro-hydantoin derivatives (I) of this invention, particularly useful are the piperidine-spiro-hydantoin derivatives having the formula (I) wherein n is 1 and R is an alkenyl group, an alkoxyalkyl group, an acyloxyalkyl group, an epoxyalkyl group, an alkoxycarbonylalkyl group or diphenoxyphosphinyl group, and wherein the alkyl moiety of the above-listed groups that is directly attached to the N atom of 3-position of a piperidine-spiro-hydantoin structure has 1 to 8 carbon atoms.
More specifically, a most preferable group of the piperidine-spiro-hydantoin derivatives (I) of this invention can be represented by the formula (II) ##STR12## wherein R.sub.1 is allyl group, an alkoxyalkyl group, an alkanoyloxyalkyl group, an alkenoyloxyalkyl group or 2,3-epoxypropyl group and the alkyl moiety, attached directly to the N atom of 3-position of a piperidine-spiro-hydantoin structure, of the above-listed groups has 1 to 4 carbon atoms.
Among the piperidine-spiro-hydantoin derivative (II), highly superior stabilizing effect against photo-deterioration of synthetic polymers as well as good compatibility with the polymers to be stabilized can be attained with those compounds of the above formula (II) wherein R.sub.1 is allky group, an alkoxyalkyl group, an alkanoyloxyalkyl group or alkenoyloxyalkyl group. The compounds of the above formula (II) wherein R.sub.1 is 2,3-epoxypropyl group are found to have high stabilizing effect against thermal-deterioration, together with good stabilization againt photo-deterioration.

The piperidine-spiro-hydantoin derivatives (I) of this invention can be easily prepared, for instance, by the reaction of a compound having the following formula (III) or an alkali metal salt thereof with a halide having the formula [R--(X.sub.1).sub.n ] as shown in the following reaction schema: ##STR13##
In the above formulae, n, R and X are as defined above and X.sub.1 is a halogen atom.
In carrying out the above exemplified process for the preparation of the piperidine-spiro-hydantoin derivative (I), the reaction may be effected by adding a stoichiometric amount of the halide [R--(X.sub.1).sub.n ] to the starting compound (III), optionally dissolved or suspended in water or a suitable organic solvent, e.g., benzene, toluene, xylene, dimethyl-formamide and the like, and either standing the resulting mixture at room temperature or heating the mixture under reflux. Where the starting compound (III) is of a free base form, the reaction may be satisfactorily effected in the presence of an inorganic or organic base which acts as an acid-binding agent, e.g., alkali metal carbonate or tertiary amine. Where the starting compound (III) is of an alkali metal salt form, the reaction may be smoothly effected in the absence of the acid-binding agent.
The starting compound of the formula (III) wherein X is sulfur atom is new substance and it may be readily prepared by reacting 4-amino-4-cyano-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine with carbon disulfide and sulfur in the presence of a suitable organic solvent at room temperature.
In still another aspect of this invention, there is provided a synthetic polymer composition stabilized against photo- and thermal-deteriorations, which contains at least one of the new piperidine-spiro-hydantoin derivatives (I) having incorporated therein.
The piperidine-spiro-hydantoin derivatives (I) employed as a stabilizer in the present invention may be readily incorporated into the synthetic polymers by any of the various standard procedures commonly utilized in the art. The stabilizer may be incorporated into the synthetic polymers at any desired stage prior to the manufacture of shaped articles therefrom. Thus, for example, the stabilizer in the form of a dry powder may be admixed with the synthetic polymer, or a suspension or emulsion of the stabilizer may be admixed with a solution, suspension or emulsion of the synthetic polymer.
The amount of the piperidine-spiro-hydantoin derivatives (I) employed in the synthetic polymer in accordance with the present invention may be varied widely, depending upon the types, properties and particular uses of the synthetic polymer to be stabilized. In general, the piperidine-spiro-hydantoin derivatives of the formula (I) may be added in an amount ranging from 0.01 to 5.0% by weight, based on the amount of the synthetic polymer, but the practical range is varied depending upon the type of the synthetic polymer, that is 0.01 to 2.0% by weight, preferably 0.02 to 0.1% by weight for polyolefins, 0.01 to 1.0% by weight, preferably 0.02to 0.5% by weight for polyvinyl chloride and polyvinylidene chloride, and 0.01 to 5.0% by weight, preferably 0.02 to 2.0% by weight for polyurethanes and polyamides.
The present stabilizer may be used alone or in combination with other known antioxidants, ultraviolet absorbents, fillers, pigments and the like. Examples of th antioxidants which may be utilized include 2,6-di-tert.butyl-p-cresol, 4,4'-thio-bis(3-methyl-6-tert.butylphenol), 4,4'-butylidene-bis(3-methyl-6-tert.butylphenol), tris(2-methyl-4-hydroxy-5 -tert.butyl-phenyl)butane, tetrakis[.beta.-(3,5-di-tert.butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propoxymethyl]methane, triphenyl phosphite, dilauryl thiodipropionate and the like. Examples of the untraviolet absorbents which may be employed include 4-tert.butylphenyl salicylate, 2-hydroxy-4-octoxybenzophenone, 2-(2'-hydroxy-3',5'-di-tert.butylphenyl)-5-chloro-benzotriazole, methyl .alpha.-cyano-.beta.-methyl-.beta.-(p-methoxyphenyl)acrylate, nickel (II) salt of [2,2'-thiobis(4-tert.butylphenolate)]-n-butylamine and the like. The additives as set forth above, when employed, may be blended into a synthetic polymer composition, usually in a ratio of about 0.5-3.0 to 1 of the piperidine-spiro-hydantoin derivative (I) of this invention.
If desired, two or more of the present stabilizers i.e. the piperidine-spiro-hydantoin derivatives of the formula (I) may also be satisfactorily used in this invention.
