1040~49
Addition products of sulfites on maleic acid mono- and
diesters of long-chain fatty alcohols and their use as surface-active
agents are already known.
It has now been found that compounds of the formula I -
RO-CO-CH2-CH~S03M)-CO-OR' '
R stands for a group of the formula II
Rf-(CH2)m-(OCH2CH2)n
wherein Rf stands for a straight-chain perfluoroalkyl radical or a terminally
methyl-branched perfluoroalkyl radical, i.e. a perfluoroalkyl group -~
carrying a trifluoro methyl group in the penultimate position, each group
having 2 to 8 carbon atoms, m is a number of from 1 to 4 and n is a number ~ `
of from 0 to 3, M is a hydrogen or alkali metal atom or an ammonium group ~ -
of the formula -
x 4-x
ln which R" is an alkyl group of 1 to 4 carbon atoms which is unsubstituted
or substituted by hydroxy, carboxy or sulfo, x is an integer of zero to 4,
and R' has the meaning of R or M, are obtained when maleic acid anhydride is
reacted with one or two mol equivalents of an alcohol of the formula II
ROH
in which R is as defined above, wherein in the reaction with 2 mols of
~cohol an acidic esterification catalyst is added,and to the maleic acid
ester thus obtained a--water-soluble sulfite is added in an aqueous medium in
the presence of a solubilizer, and optionally subsequently the cation M is -~
exchanged partly or completely.
The alcohols of the formula ROH are known (United States Patent
Specifications Nos. 2,666,797 and 3,171,861, German Offenlegungsschriften
Nos.2,028,459 and 1,468,253) and can be prepared easily. Alcohols of the
formula III having 1, 2 or 4 methylene groups (m = 1,2 or 4) are preferred,
since they are obtained in an industrial scale from perfluorocarboxylic acids
and the derivatives thereof by hydrogenation (m = 1) or from perfluoro-

alkyl iodides by reacting with 1 or 2 mols of ethylene and saponification of
the iodide thus obtained (m = 2 or 4). In the latter case the mixtures
obtained in the industrial process may be used directly, as well as, of
course, mixtures with other alcohols of the mentioned type (thus, m may be
a fraction).
In the case of the straight-chain compounds the perfluoroalkyl
radical of the alcohols ROH con~ains 2 to 8, preferably 4 to 6 carbon atoms
and in the case of the branched radicals, 3 to 8, preferably 5 to 7 carbon
atoms. Since the starting materials are often obtained by telomerization of
tetrafluoroethylene on to lower perfluoroalkyl iodides mixtures of such com-
pounds are especially interesting, that means the number of the carbon atoms
is not necessarily an integer.
By known oxethylation methods the corresponding oxethylates
(n = 1 to 3) are prepared from the starting materials having n = O. It is
known that the oxethylation products generally are mixtures having a different
content of oxethyl groups (i.e. n is an average value which represents i-a-
a fraction). These mixtures may be separated by distillation or chromato-
graphy; in general the mixtures are used directly since ~hey have the same
activity.
Alcohols to be reacted according to the invention of the formula ~ -~

The alcohols of the formula III are reacted in known manner
(Houben-Weyl, Methoden der organischen Chemie, 3rd edition, volume 9, page - -
383 (1955) and K. Lindner~ Tenside, Hilfsmittel Waschrohstoffe; Wissen-
schaftliche Verlag~gesellschaft, Stuttgart 1965, page 747~ with 1 mol of
maleic acid anhydride to give the maleic acid monoester (maleic acid -
semiester) or with half a mol of maleic acid anhydride in the presence of an
acidic esterification catalyst to give the maleic acid diester. As acid
esterification catalysts may be used for example borontrifluoride or mineral
lo acids such as phosphoric acid, perchloric acid or preferably sulfuric acid.
The maleic esters thus obtained in a high purity of more than 97% -
and in a pratically quantitative yield, are reacted with water-soluble
sulfites in~an aqueous medium, with the aid of a solubilizer. As solubilizer
are suitable water-soluble polar organic solvents, such as lower alcohols,
for example methanol~ ethanol, isopropanol; lower ketones, such as acetione;
ethers, such as tetrahydrofuran or dioxan etc. Water-soluble eulfites are
above all aIkalimetal and ammonium sulfites and the corresponding hydrogen
sulfites or disulfites- The easiest way is to react the semiesters with
sulfites and the diesters with disulfites, according to the following ~, `

S03M
The cation M may be exchanged partly or completely by another
; cation by preparing from the s-~ats obtained the free acids with mineral acid
and by isolating them, if desired, and converting them, if des red, with
bases into other salts. Suitable bases are above all amines which carry
lower aIkyl groups, which may be substituted by solubilizing groups such as
.

hydroxy, carboxy and sulfo groups. Such amines are especially mono-, di-and
triethanol amine, glycine, taurine and N-methyltaurine. Salts such as amines
are especially suitable for preparing high-percentage solutions of the
products of the invention.
Depending on the length of the fluoroalkyl chain, on the ethylene
oxide content and on the type of the ester the products of the invention are
obtained as highly viscous, colorless to slightly yellow masses or as white
powders.
The products of the invention are soluble in water and have the
property of strongly reducing the surface tension of water even in the case
of low initial concentrations (Table 1). The very low surface tension values,
combined with excellent wetting properties, open a large field of application
to the compounds of the invention. Thus, these compounds are excellent
wetting agents for fibre materials, which is particularly important in dyeing
processes, textile finishing processes, purification and washing processes.
~ .
Further possibilities for the technical application of the com-
pounds of the invention are their addition as levelling agents to dispersions
and their addition in order to increase the wetting properties of other
wetting agents, for example in the wetting of powdery materials such as
silica, chaIk and spray powders.
- Furthermore the compounds of the invention are characterized by
their excellent levelling capacity in the case of self gloss emulsions which
may b0 used for example for the polish of the floor. The addit1on of these
surface-active compounds brings about an exoellent distribution of wax
emulsions on very different su~faces, for example floor coverings, whereby,
when drying, the formation of undesired stains and rims is reduced or com-
pletely avoided. ~ -
The novel compounds are obtained as solutions. These solutions
may be incorporated as such into wa emulsions or the compounds are obtained

free from solvents by spray drying or evaporating. By extraction with ether
they may be freed, if desired, from small amounts of maleic ester or
fluoroalcohol.
It is significant that also the novel compounds ha~ing a short-
chain perfluoroaIkyl radical are surface-active. Thus, if starting materials
from a telomerization reaction are used, it is not necessary to separate the
compounds having short-chain radicals, since the corresponding products of
the invention do not represent a 'iballast" which would be inacceptably
expensive in the present case. m us, the compounds of the invention are
additionally superior to other fluo~oalkyl surfactants with regard to the
working up of the starting materials which is not necessary or easier.
The following ~xamples illustrate the invention. Percentages and
parts are by weight unless speclfied otherwise, the ratio of parts by welght
to parts by volume being that of the kilogram to the litre. -

under inert gas (nitrogen) at 140C, while 34 ml of water (=1.9 mols) were
distilled off (acid number 6.o). 275.3 g of sodium disulfite (=1.45 mols),
1.8 1 of water and 0.9 1 of isopropanol were added to the ester and refluxed
for 16 hours at 80 C until a clea. solution was obtained. The solvent was
removed. 2130 g of the produc* (=84.4% of the theory) were obtained.

To a wax emulsion basic preparation consisting of a montan wax
having a dropping point of 83 to 89 C, an acid number of 85 to 95 and a
saponification number of 120 to 145 (15 parts), of diethanol amine (3.0 parts)
and water (82.0 parts), the substances to be examined were added in such
-~ amounts as to obtain a concentration of fluorine of 0.02 to 0.05~. The
surface tension values of these test emulsions were measured.
If 0.13 ml of the wax emulsions which contained 0.025 part of fluoro
surfactant was applied onto a purified polyvinylchloride (PVC) plate having
a size of 7 x 10 cm, the distribution and spreading capacity were the better,
and after drying the formation of stain~ and rims was the smaller (visual

For the application of biocides, spray powders are used in practice.
These powders must have a good floating capacity in water with short wetting
time~s and low foam values. As dispersants are used commercial long-chain
alkylphenol-formaldehyde-condensation products. By addition of 0.15~ of the
substances according to the invention the wetting capacity of the powders is
considerably improved without the floating capacity (D) being reduced and the
foam values (S) being increased (Table 3).
In comparative tests the floating capacity was determined according
to the cyclinder method of Fischer (see "Handbuch der landwirtschaftlichen
Versuchs- und Untersuchungsmethodik~ (Methodenbuch~ Volume VII ~IDie
Untersuchungen von Pflanzenschutzmitteln" von W. Fischer (1941) page 53 and
~ page 12~ corresponding to the WHO method described in Specifications for
; Pesticides, 1967, pages 76, 77, 80 and 81 (Column D in Table)
The wetting capacity was determined as follows: A 500 ml beaker
(diameter of 8 cm) was filled with tap water of 20 C and 12 dH (German degree
of hardness), and one gram of the spray powder to be tested was sprayed onto
the surface. m e time required in order to wet the powder was measured and
indicatèd in seconds as wetting time (column N in Table~
The examination of the foaming capacity was carried out according
to J. Ross and G.D. Mlles (see Oil and Soap 18 (1941), 99): 4 grams per
liter of the spray powders to be tested were introduced into water. In e~ch
case the height of the foam after shaking was measured in cm in the beginning
and after a dwelling time of 5 minutes (column S in Table3.
For the comparative tests with the wetting agents and dispersants
to be tested the ollowing spray powder compositions were used.
