Claims
- 1. A compound of the formula
- A[(Y--O).sub.x --Y--Z].sub.m
- in which A is the radical of an arylated fatty acid or esterification product thereof, Y denotes identical or different groups of the formulae
- --CH.sub.2 --CH.sub.2 -- or --CH.sub.2 --CH(CH.sub.3)--,
- Z denotes identical or different radicals of the formulae --OH, --O--CO--CH.dbd.C--COOM and --O--CO--CH.sub.2 --CH(SO.sub.3 M)--COOM, in which
- M is a cation,
- x is an integer of from 1 to 150 and
- m is a number of from 1 to 7,
- with the exception of the oxalkylation products of difatty acid ester substituted phenolic compounds obtainable by a process which comprises the steps of reacting, at elevated temperature, in the presence of an acidic catalyst, an unsaturated fatty acid ester produced by reacting an unsaturated fatty acid having from 10 to 22 carbon atoms with a saturated alcohol containing from 1 to 8 carbon atoms or a mixture of such esters with 0.2 to 0.8 mol per mole of the unsaturated fatty acid ester, of a phenolic compound of the formula ##STR3## where R.sub.1 is an alkyl group containing 1 to 4 carbon atoms or OH, R.sub.2 is --H, --CH.sub.3 or --CH.sub.2 CH.sub.3, and n is 0, 1 or 2 with the proviso that at least one hydroxy group is present in the phenolic compound and at least two of the ortho- and para-positions on the benzene ring with respect to the --OR.sub.2 are unsubstituted, subsequently isolating the product derived from 1 mole of the phenolic compound and 2 moles of the fatty acid ester, and then reacting the product with ethylene oxide or propylene oxide.
- 2. A compound as claimed in claim 1, wherein Y denotes --CH.sub.2 --CH.sub.2.
- 3. A compound as claimed in claim 1, wherein M is hydrogen, an alkali metal, an alkaline earth metal, ammonium or an ammonium group derived from a low molecular weight alkylamine or alkylolamine, or an oxalkylate prepared therefrom by addition of 1 to 150 mols of ethylene oxide and/or propylene oxide on 1 mol of said alkyl amine or alkylolamine.
- 4. A compound as claimed in claim 1, wherein x is 2 to 20.
- 5. A compound as claimed in claim 1, wherein m is an integer from 1 to 3 and the groups (Y--O).sub.x --Y--Z are identical or different if m is 2 or 3.
- 6. A compound as claimed in claim 1, wherein A is a Friedel-Crafts reaction product of an aromatic hydroxy compound with an unsaturated fatty acid or an ester thereof.
- 7. A compound as claimed in claim 1, wherein A is a Friedel-Crafts reaction product of an aromatic hydroxy compound with an unsaturated fatty acid, the free carboxy group of which is esterified with a low molecular weight polyhydric alcohol or alkylolamine.
- 8. A compound as claimed in claim 1, wherein A is the reaction product of an aromatic hydroxy compound with an unsaturated fat or oil.
- 9. A compound as claimed in claim 1, wherein A is a reaction product of 1 mol of castor oil with 1 to 3 mols of an aromatic hydroxy compound.
- 10. A compound as claimed in claim 1, wherein Z denotes
- --O--CO--CH.sub.2 --CH(SO.sub.3 M)--COOM
- in which M is as defined in claim 1.
