TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to a compound useful as a stabilizer for an organic material.


BACKGROUND ART

Organic materials such as thermoplastic resins and the like are deteriorated by the action of heat and oxygen during processing into products and when in use after processing. To improve stability during processing (processing stability) and stability in use (e.g., oxidation resistance), therefore, a stabilizer is added to the organic materials. As such stabilizer, various phenolic antioxidants (e.g., “IRGANOX (registered trade mark) 1076” manufactured by BASF) is known (e.g., patent document 1).

(Step 1)

Compound-1 (2,4-di-t-butylphenol) (25.0 g), SO2Cl2 (16.38 g) and diethyl ether (250 mL) were charged in a four-necked flask, and stirred under a nitrogen atmosphere at 25° C. for 4 hr. The solvent in the obtained reaction solution was evaporated under reduced pressure at not more than 40° C., and the concentrated residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (solvent: ethyl acetate, hexane). The solvent in the purified solution was evaporated under reduced pressure at not more than 40° C. to give compound 2 (24.1 g).


(Step 2)

Compound 2 (35.0 g) produced in the same manner as in step 1, K3Fe(CN)6 (239.3 g) and KOH (239.3 g) were dissolved in water (3.5 L), benzene (2.4 L) was added to the obtained solution, and the reaction solution was stirred under a nitrogen atmosphere at 25° C. for 20 min. Using a mixed solvent of CCl4:n-hexane=1:9 (volume ratio), compound 3 was extracted from the reaction solution, and the solvent in the extracted solution was evaporated under reduced pressure at not more than 40° C. to give compound 3 (23.2 g).


(Step 3)

Compound 3 (23.0 g) and LiAlH4 (5.46 g) were dissolved in THF (460 mL), and the reaction solution was stirred at 0° C. for 20 min. The obtained reaction solution was filtered to remove the residue. The solvent in the filtrate was evaporated under reduced pressure at not more than 40° C., and the concentrated residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (solvent: ethyl acetate, hexane). The solvent in the purified solution was evaporated under reduced pressure at not more than 40° C. to give compound 4 (19.5 g).


(Step 4)

Under a nitrogen atmosphere at 25° C., compound 4 (9 g), t-BuOK (9.08 g), and diethyl ether (180 mL) were mixed. Thereafter, the system was maintained at −10° C., and a 2.5 M n-BuLi hexane solution (32.3 mL) was added dropwise over not less than 20 min. Then, the mixture was stirred at −10° C. for 2 hr. The reaction was quench with water (3.6 mL), and the reaction solution was filtered to remove the residue. The solvent in the filtrate was evaporated under reduced pressure at not more than 40° C., and the concentrated residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (solvent: ethyl acetate, hexane). The solvent in the purified solution was evaporated under reduced pressure at not more than 40° C. to give compound 5 (2,4-di-t-butyl-6-(2,4-di-t-butylphenoxy)phenol, 5.8 g). Obtainment of compound 5 was confirmed by 1H-NMR measurement.

Example 1

To a powder (100 parts) of linear low-density polyethylene (“FS150” manufactured by Sumitomo Chemical Company, Limited, melt flow rate (MFR) at temperature 190° C. and load 21.18N: 1.0 g/10 min) were added 2,4-di-t-butyl-6-(2,4-di-t-butylphenoxy)phenol (0.05 part) (0.0012 mol per 1 kg of polyethylene) and calcium stearate (0.05 part), and the mixture was dry blended. Then, the obtained blend was granulated using a 30 mmφ single screw extruder at 190° C. to give pellets. The oxidation induction time of the obtained pellet was measured by DSC apparatus (“DSC7020” manufactured by Hitachi High-Tech Science Corporation). To be specific, under a nitrogen atmosphere, the temperature of the pellets was raised at 20° C./min, and when the pellets reached 200° C., the atmosphere was changed to oxygen atmosphere at an oxygen flow rate of 100 mL/min, and the time period from the change into oxygen atmosphere to the appearance of the exothermic peak was measured as an oxidation induction time (i.e., oxidation induction time=when exothermic peak appeared—when changed into oxygen atmosphere). In addition, the time when the exothermic peak appeared after change into oxygen atmosphere was determined as a time point for an intersection point of the tangent line of a DSC curve when an exothermic amount is 0 mW (i.e., approximately parallel to horizontal axis), and the tangent line of an inflection point of the DSC curve. The results are shown in Table 1. A longer pellet (composition) oxidation induction time means higher oxidation resistance.


Comparative Example 1

In the same manner as in Example 1 except that 2,4-di-t-butyl-6-(2,4-di-t-butylphenoxy)phenol was not added, oxidation induction time was measured. The results are shown in Table 1.

As shown in Table 1, 2,4-di-t-butyl-6-(2,4-di-t-butylphenoxy)phenol can improve oxidation resistance of pellets (composition) containing polyethylene.


Example 2

To a powder (100 parts) of polypropylene (“AW630G” manufactured by Sumitomo Chemical Company, Limited, melt flow rate (MFR) at temperature 230° C. and load 21.18N: 10.0 g/10 min) were added 2,4-di-t-butyl-6-(2,4-di-t-butylphenoxy)phenol (0.05 part) (0.0012 mol per 1 kg of polypropylene) and calcium stearate (0.05 part), and the mixture was dry blended. Then, the obtained blend was granulated using a 30 mmp single screw extruder at 230° C. to give pellets. The melt flow rate (MFR, g/10 min) of the obtained pellet was measured by “melt indexer L246-3537” manufactured by Technol Seven Co., Ltd. under the conditions of temperature in cylinder 230° C., dwell time 5 min, load 21.18N (2.16 kg). The results are shown in Table 2.


Polypropylene is known to be thermally decomposed during extrusion molding and degraded. When polypropylene is degraded, MFR of the pellets (composition) containing same increases. Therefore, a low MFR of the pellets containing polypropylene means that the thermal decomposition of polypropylene is suppressed and the processing stability thereof is high.


Comparative Example 2

In the same manner as in Example 2 except that 2,4-di-t-butyl-6-(2,4-di-t-butylphenoxy)phenol was not added, MFR was measured. The results are shown in Table 2.


Comparative Example 3

In the same manner as in Example 2 except that “IRGANOX (registered trade mark) 1076” (octadecyl 3-(3,5-di-t-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propionate) (0.065 part) (0.0012 mol per 1 kg of polypropylene) manufactured by BASF was added instead of 2,4-di-t-butyl-6-(2,4-di-t-butylphenoxy)phenol (0.05 part), MFR was measured. The results are shown in Table 2.

As shown in Table 2, the MFR of the pellets of Example 2 containing 2,4-di-t-butyl-6-(2,4-di-t-butylphenoxy)phenol is lower than that of the pellets of Comparative Example 2 free of a stabilizer and that of the pellets of Comparative Example 3 containing conventional IRGANOX (registered trade mark) 1076, and 2,4-di-t-butyl-6-(2,4-di-t-butylphenoxy)phenol is superior for the improvement of the processing stability of pellets (composition) containing polypropylene.
