Piperidyl-triazine derivatives and their use as polymer stabilizers

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a series of novel piperidyl-triazine derivatives which are useful as stabilizers for synthetic polymers.
In recent years, a number of triazine derivatives have been proposed for use as polymer stabilizers, for example as disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,108,829, U.S Pat. No. 4,433,145, U.S. Pat. No. 4,400,505 and U.S. Pat. No. 4,461,861 and in Japanese Patent Application Kokai (i.e. as laid open to public inspection) No. 176 662/86. Of these, the closest prior art is believed to be Japanese Application Kokai No. 176 662/86, which discloses, inter alia, the compound 1,3-bis<3-{2,4-bis[N-butyl-N-(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidyl)amino]-1,3,5-triazin-6-ylamino}propoxy>-2,2-dimethylpropane and proposes its use as a polymer stabilizer.
In broad, general terms, the chemical structure of these prior art compounds, including that one specifically mentioned above, insofar as they are relevant to the compounds of the present invention, may be described as having a piperidylaminotriazinyl group attached via, for example, an amino group to an alkylene group, which itself may optionally be interrupted by certain specific atoms or groups. In the case of the prior art compounds, the alkylene group is interrupted by certain specific atoms or groups, such as an oxygen or sulfur atom or an amino group.
We have now surprisingly discovered a series of piperidyl-triazine derivatives in which the alkylene group is interrupted by a group of formula --OCO--, --COO--, --CONH-- or --OCONH--, which is unusual in this type of compound. These compounds have a very low volatility, and indeed, do not even volatilize to any great extent when the polymer containing them is heated. Moreover, they result in little blooming and additionally are excellent polymer stabilizers against heat and light.
The only compounds of this type that we have been able to discover having an alkylene group interrupted by groups similar to those in the present invention are disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Kokai No. 63570/87 and in United Kingdom Patent No. 2 136 805. Although these prior compounds are disclosed for use as polymer stabilizers, they differ from the compounds of the present invention in that they have a piperidylamino group attached directly to the alkylene group and lack the triazine group of the present invention. The compounds of the present invention have been found to be significantly more effective polymer stabilizers than these prior compounds.

X and R.sup.3 are as defined above;
with a compound of formula (X):
(Y").sub.n --Z (X)
(in which:
when Y' represents a group of formula --COOR.sup.7, then Y" represents a hydroxy group or an amino group, whereas, when Y' represents a hydroxy group, then Y" represents a group of formula --COR.sup.8
wherein R represents a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy group or a halogen atom,
or an isocyanate group; and
Z and n are as defined above;
and then, if required, converting any atom or group represented by R.sup.1' to a different atom or group represented by R.sup.1 and, if required, converting any atom or group represented by R.sup.2' to a different atom or group represented by R.sup.2, preferably by acylation of a compound in which one or both of R.sup.1' and R.sup.2' represents a hydrogen atom toprepare a compound in which one or both of R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 represents an acyl group;
and, if required, converting the resulting compound to an acid addition salt thereof or converting a salt the free base.
In more detail, the compounds of the present invention can be prepared by the sequence of reactions shown in Reaction Scheme A: ##STR28##
In the formulae shown above, R.sup.1', R.sup.2', R.sup.3, X, Y, Y', Y", n and Z are as defined above; and Q represents a halogen atom, such as a chlorine, bromine or iodine atom, preferably a chlorine atom.
In Step A1 of Method A a compound of formula (XIII) is prepared by reactinga compound of formula (XI) with a compound of formula (XII) under catalyticreduction conditions.
There is no particular restriction on the nature of the catalyst to be employed in the reaction, and any catalyst capable of being used in conventional catalytic reduction reactions can equally be used here. Preferred examples of such catalysts include palladium-on-carbon, palladium black, platinum oxide and Raney nickel, of which platinum oxide is particularly preferred.
The reaction is preferably effected in the presence of a solvent, the nature of which is not critical to the reaction, provided that it does notinterfere with the reaction. Examples of suitable solvents include water oran alcohol, such as methanol, ethanol or propanol.
The reaction is effected in an atmosphere of hydrogen, and the hydrogen pressure to be used in the reaction is usually at least atmospheric pressure, e.g. from atmospheric pressure to 10 atmospheres. The reaction may be carried out over a wide range of temperatures, and the precise temperature chosen is not particularly critical to the reaction, In general, we prefer that the reaction should be carried out at a temperature in the range of from room temperature to 100.degree. C. The time required for the reaction may vary widely, depending on the nature ofthe starting materials and the catalyst as well as upon the reaction temperature, but a period of from 30 minutes to 5 hours will usually suffice.
The compound of formula (XII) can be used in the form of a salt, and there is no substantial restriction on the nature of the salt to be employed. Examples of such salts include: salts with mineral acids, such as hydrochloric acid, nitric acid or sulfuric acid: salts with carboxylic acids, such as acetic acid, trifluoroacetic acid, adipic acid or benzoic acid: salts with sulfonic acids, such as methanesulfonic acid or p-toluenesulfonic acid, and salts with phosphonic acids, such as phenylphosphonic acid.
In Step A2 and Step A3 of Method A, compounds of formulae (XV) and (VIII)are prepared, respectively, by reacting the compound of formula (XIII) with the compound of formula (XIV), and by reacting the compound offormula (XV) with the compound of formula (XVI). These reactions are preferably conducted sequentially and take place under essentially the same conditions. If desired, they may be carried out without intermediate isolation of the compound of formula (XV).
A compound of formula (XV) in which each group represented by R.sup.1' in the two piperidyl groups and/or each group represented by R.sup.2' in those groups is different can be prepared by reacting the compound of formula (XIV) first with about an equimolar amount of a first compound of formula (XIII), and then with about an equimolar amount of another compound of formula (XIII).
The reactions are preferably carried out in the presence of a solvent, the nature of which is not critical, provided that it does not interfere with the reactions. Examples of suitable solvents include: water; ketones, suchas acetone or methyl ethyl ketone; ethers, such as diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran or dioxane: aromatic hydrocarbons, such as benzene, toluene or xylene; saturated hydrocarbons, such as heptane, octane, isooctane, cyclohexane or ethylcyclohexane: and mixtures of any one or more of the above organic solvents with water. We particularly prefer to use a mixture of water and acetone.
The reactions may be carried out over a wide range of temperatures, and theprecise temperature chosen is not particularly critical to the reactions. In general, we prefer that the reactions should be carried out at a temperature in the range of from 0.degree. to 200.degree. C., more preferably from room temperature to 150.degree. C. The time required for the reactions may vary widely, depending on the nature of the starting materials as well as upon the reaction temperature, but a period of from 30 minutes to 30 hours will usually suffice for each of the reactions.
The reactions are preferably effected in the presence of an acid binding agent. Any compound capable of binding to the hydrohalic acid HQ produced in the reaction and effectively removing the acid from participation in the reaction may be employed, provided that it does not otherwise interfere with the reaction. Examples of such acid binding agents include:inorganic bases, especially alkali metal hydroxides and carbonates, such assodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium carbonate or potassium carbonate: and organic bases, such as triethylamine, pyridine, N,N-dimethylaniline or 1,8-diazabicyclo[4.3.0] undeca-7-ene (DBU). Of these, we prefer sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium carbonate or potassium carbonate.
In Step A4 of Method A, a compound of formula (Ia) is prepared by reacting a compound of formula (VIII) with a compound of formula (X) in a suitable ratio in an inert solvent.
In the compounds of formulae (VIII) and (X), when Y' represents a hydroxy group and Y" represents a group of formula --COR.sup.8 (wherein R.sup.8 represents a lower alkoxy group), or when Y' represents a group of formula --COOR.sup.7 (wherein R.sup.7 represents a lower alkyl group) and Y" represents a hydroxy group or an amino group, the reaction is preferably conducted in an inert solvent and in the presence of a base. Although the reaction temperature is not critical and the reaction will take place overa wide range of temperatures, we normally prefer to carry out the reaction at an elevated temperature, usually at a reaction temperature of from 80.degree. to 150.degree. C. The time required for the reaction may vary widely, depending on the nature of the starting materials as well as upon the reaction temperature, but a period of from 30 minutes to 5 hours will usually suffice. In general, we prefer that the reaction should be carriedout whilst distilling off the lower alcohol formed in the course of the reaction.
A compound of formula (Ia) in which each group of formula: ##STR29##is different can be prepared by reacting the compound of formula (X) stepwise first with about an equimolar amount of a first compound of formula (VIII), then with about an equimolar amount of a second compound of formula (VIII), and so on.
There is no particular restriction on the nature of the base to be employed, provided that it has no adverse effect on the reaction or on thereagents. Examples of suitable bases include: alkali metal compounds, especially alkoxides, hydroxides and amides, such as sodium methoxide, sodium ethoxide, potassium t-butoxide, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide or lithium amide; and titanate compounds, such as tetraisopropylor tetrabutyl titanate. Of these, we prefer sodium ethoxide, potassium hydroxide and the titanate compounds. The nature of the solvent employed is not critical, provided that it does not interfere with the reaction. Examples of suitable solvents include: hydrocarbons, which may be aliphatic, aromatic or alicyclic, such as benzene, toluene, xylene, heptane, octane, isooctane, cyclohexane or ethylcyclohexaneo
When Y' represents a hydroxy group and Y" represents a group of formula --COR.sup.8 (wherein R.sup.8 represents a halogen atom), the reaction is preferably conducted in an inert solvent and in the presence or absence ofan acid binding agent. Although the reaction temperature is not critical and the reaction will take place over a wide range of temperatures, we normally prefer to carry out the reaction at room temperature or at an elevated temperature, usually at a reaction temperature of from room temperature to 130.degree. C. The time required for the reaction may vary widely, depending on the nature of the starting materials as well as upon the reaction temperature, but a period of from 30 minutes to 3 hours will usually suffice.
The reaction is preferably effected in the presence of an acid binding agent. Any compound capable of binding to the hydrohalic acid produced in the reaction and effectively removing the acid from participation in the reaction may be employed, provided that it does not otherwise interfere with the reaction. Examples of such acid binding agents include those exemplified in relation to Steps A2 and A3 of Method A.
The nature of the solvent employed is not critical, provided that it does not interfere with the reaction. Examples of suitable solvents include: aromatic hydrocarbons, such as benzene, toluene or xylene; halogenated aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as chloroform or trichloroethane; and ethers,such as diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran or dioxane.
When Y' represents a hydroxy group and Y" represents an isocyanate group, the reaction is preferably conducted in an inert solvent. There is no particular restriction on the nature of the solvent to be employed, provided that it has no adverse effect on the reaction or on the reagents involved. Examples of suitable solvents include: aromatic hydrocarbons, such as benzene, toluene or xylene; and aliphatic and alicyclic hydrocarbons, such as heptane, octane, isooctane, cyclohexane and ethylcyclohexane. The reaction can take place over a wide range of temperatures, and the precise reaction temperature is not critical to the invention. In general, we find it convenient to carry out the reaction at a temperature from room temperature to 160.degree. C. The time required for the reaction may also vary widely, depending on many factors, notably the reaction temperature and the nature of the reagents. However, providedthat the reaction is effected under the preferred conditions outlined above, a period of from 30 minutes to 5 hours will usually suffice.
Compounds of formula (I) wherein either one or both of R.sup.1 R.sup.2 and represents an acyl group can be obtained by subjecting the compound of formula (Ia) wherein either one or both of R.sup.1' and R.sup.2' represents a hydrogen atom to an acylation reaction as an additional step.
The acylation reaction can be conducted in the same manner as described above in Step A4 of Method A, using an active derivative of a corresponding carboxylic acid (e.g. an acid halide, acid anhydride or lower alkyl ester) as the acylating agent.
After completion of the reaction, the desired product in each step can be collected from the reaction mixture by conventional means. For example, the desired product can be obtained by the following procedures: when insolubles are present in the reaction mixture, filtering off such insolubles; or, when the reaction mixture is acidic or basic, neutralizingthe reaction mixture: adding water thereto; extracting the resulting mixture with a water-immiscible organic solvent: drying the extract thus obtained; and then distilling the solvent from the extract. The desired compound thus obtained may be further purified, if necessary, by means of a such conventional means as the various chromatography techniques, e.g. column chromatography or preparative thin layer chromatography, or other means, such as distillation or recrystallization.
An alternative method of preparing the compound of formula (VIII), which may then be used to prepare the compounds of the present invention, is illustrated in Reaction Scheme B: ##STR30##
In the above formulae, Q, X, Y', R.sup.1', R.sup.2' and R.sup.3 are as defined above.
In Step B1, the compound of formula (XVII) is prepared by reacting the compound of formula (XIV) with the compound of formula (XVI). In Step B2 the compound of formula (VIII) is prepared by reacting the compound of formula (XVII) with the compound of formula (XIII). These steps are equivalent to Steps A2 and A3 of Reaction Scheme A, and may be effected using the same reaction conditions.

The amount of the compound of the invention employed as a stabilizer will depend upon various factors, for example the nature and properties of the polymer, the intended use of the polymer composition and whether or not there are any other stabilizers present. In general, however, the stabilizers of the present invention will be added to the polymers in an amount of from 0.01 to 5% by weight, based on the weight of the polymer. However, the most effective amount of stabilizer depends upon the nature of the polymer and specifically:

EXAMPLE 50
100 parts of unstabilized polypropylene powder (melt flow rate=10 to 15), 0.3 part of stearyl 3-(3,5-di-t-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propionate (an antioxidant) and 0.25 part of one of the stabilizers of this invention were kneaded together in a Brabender Plasti-Corder at 200.degree. C. for 10 minutes to obtain a homogeneous composition. The resulting mass was pressed into a sheet having a thickness of 2 to 3 mm using a laboratory press. Portions of this sheet were pressed by a hydraulic press at 260.degree. C. for 6 minutes, and immediately thereafter it was introducedinto cold water to obtain a sheet having a thickness of 0.5 mm. The same procedures were followed to form a film having a thickness of 0.1 mm from the 0.5 mm thick sheet, and the resulting film was cut into test pieces having dimensions of 50 mm.times.120 mm.
The test pieces were exposed to light in a sunshine carbon weather meter ata black panel temperature of 63.degree..+-.3.degree. C. The exposed test specimens were subjected to periodic tensile tests, and the "deteriorationtime" was obtained by determining the time when the elongation of each specimen droped to 50% of its initial value. The test results are shown asthe ratio between the deterioration time of the stabilizer of this invention and that of a control specimen to which the stabilizer of this invention had not been added.
These results are summarized in the following Table 2, wherein the compounds are identified by the numbers hereinbefore assigned to them.
