Substituted 1,3,2,4-diazadiphosphetidines and compositions stabilized therewith

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Certain substituted 1,3,2,4-diazadiphosphetidines are well-known for their unique structural, bonding and coordination properties.
Michaelis and Schroeter first reported the synthesis of selected 1,3,2,4-diazadiphosphetidines in Ber. 27, 490 (1894). Further detailed syntheses of such compounds have been reported by R. R. Holmes et at., Inorg. Chem. 2, 380 (1963); E. W. Abel et al., J. Chem. Soc. 1965, 57; O. J. Scherer et al., Angew. Chem., Inter. Ed., 8,752 (1969); and W. Zeiss et at., Z. Naturforsch., 32b, 485 (1977). The elucidation of a crystal structure was first reported by K. W. Muir et al., J. Chem. Soc., Chem. Comm., 1971, 1405; and later by R. Keat et at., J. Chem. Soc., Chem. Comm. 1978, 372 and M. L. Thompson et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 103, 6770 ( 1981 ).
The use of certain diphenylamine substituted 1,3,2,4-diazadiphosphetidines as high temperature (300.degree.-450.degree. C.) stabilizers for polyimides and polybenzoxazoles is reported in Vysokomol Soedin., Ser. A, 20(1), 207 (1978). The use of selected 1,3,2,4-diazadiphosphetidines as light stabilizers for cellulose acetate fibers and films is reported in USSR Otkrytiya, Izobret. Prom. Obraztsy, Tovarnye Znaki, 53(20), 84 (1976) [=Soviet Union 515,843; Derwent 64543Y/36; C.A. 85 (14), 95681q]. In the same journal at 54(33), 209 (1976)[=Soviet Union 441,806; Derwent 54865A/30; C.A. 87 (26), 202623n], the use of 1,3-bis(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenylpropionamido)-2,4-bis(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenylpropiohydrazido)-diphosphazane as a stabilizer for polyolefin is disclosed. Soviet Union 445,328 (Derwent 58226A/32) discloses that poly-3,3-bis(chloromethyl)-oxacyclobutane can be heat stabilized without discoloration by the addition of 1,3-di-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenylpropipnamide)-2,4-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl-propiohydrazino)-diphosph(III)azane. However, the instant 1,3,2,4-diazadiphosphetidines are structurally distinguished from each of the diazadiphosphetidine and diphosphazane stabilizers of these Russian references.

Incorporation of the instant compound of formula I and, if desired, further additives in the polymer organic material is carried out by known methods, for example before or during moulding or by applying the dissolved or dispersed compounds to the polymer organic material, if appropriate with subsequent slow evaporation of the solvent. The beta, triclinic modification according to the invention can also be added to the materials to be stabilized in the form of a masterbatch containing them, for example, in a concentration of 2.5 to 25% by weight.

The instant compound of formula I according to the invention can be incorporated in the material to be stabilized in pure form or encapsulated in waxes, oils or polymers.
The instant compound of formula I according to the invention can also be sprayed onto the polymer to be stabilized. They are capable of diluting other additives (for example the above-mentioned customary additives) or their melts, thus enabling them to be sprayed onto the polymer to be stabilized also together with these additives.

Of these, the materials being protected are particularly advantageously thermoplastic materials, in particular polyolefins. The excellent efficiency of the alkanolamine esters of acyclic phosphites of formula I as processing stabilizers (thermal stabilizers) should be mentioned in particular. To this end, it is advantageously added to the polymer before or during its processing. It is however also possible to stabilize other polymers (for example elastomers) or lubricants or hydraulic fluids against degradation, for example light-induced or thermal-oxidative degradation. For elastomers, see the above list of possible organic materials.
Suitable lubricants and hydraulic fluids are based, for example, on mineral or synthetic oils or mixtures thereof. Lubricants are known to one skilled in the an and described in the relevant technical literature, for example in Dieter Klamann, "Schmierstoffe und verwandte Produkte" (Verlag Chemie, Weinheim 1982), in Schewe-Kobek, "Das Schmiermittel-Taschenbuch" (Dr. Alfred Huthig-Verlag, Heidelberg, 1974) and in "Ullmanns Enzyklopadie der technischen Chemie" vol. 13, pages 85-94 (Verlag Chemie, Weinheim, 1977).
Accordingly, a preferred embodiment of the present invention is the process of using the instant compound of formula I for stabilizing organic materials against oxidative, thermal or light-induced degradation.
The instant compound according to the invention is preferably used as processing stabilizer (thermal stabilizer) of thermoplastic polymers.
The present invention also provides a process for stabilizing an organic material against oxidative, thermal or light-induced degradation, which comprises incorporating therein or applying thereto an instant compound of formula I.

EXAMPLE 14
Process Stabilization of Polypropylene at 525.degree. F. (274.degree. C.)
The base formulation comprises unstabilized, high yield/high selectivity Spheripol polypropylene (PROFAX.RTM. 6501, Himont) containing 0.075% by weight of calcium stearate. The test additives are incorporated into the polyproyplene by dry blending or, when the additive is a liquid, using a minimum amount of methylene chloride solvent. The solvent is then removed by evaporation under reduced pressure. The stabilized resin formulation is extruded at 90 rpm from a 1 inch (2.54 cm) diameter extruder (extruder screw to wall clearance adjusted tighter than normal for harsher than normal processing conditions) at 525.degree. F. (274.degree. C.) with a residence time of 90 seconds.
After each of the first and fifth extrusions, the melt flow rate (in grams/10 minutes) is determined by ASTM method D 1238 on the pellets obtained from the extruder. The results are given in the table below.
