The four components a), b), c) and d) can be reacted with each other to give
the products
of the present invention in any desired sequence.

Preferably, the four components a), b), c) and d) are initially introduced and
reacted
simultaneously.

Component d) can, however, also be added to reaction mixtures a) and b), b)
and c) or a)
and c) and the missing fourth component can then be reacted.

A particularly preferred embodiment is the addition of component d) after the
reaction of
the three components a), b) and c).

The reaction is advantageously carried out in the presence of a catalyst.
Suitable catalysts
are Lewis acids or bases.

independently of one another, for example C1-Ctgalkyl or phenyl. C1-CgAlkyl is
preferred.
A particularly preferred Lewis acid catalyst is dibutyltin oxide.

In a two-stage reaction regime it is also possible to employ different
catalysts.

The catalyst is added to components a), b), c) and, if used, d) in an amount,
for example,
of from 0.03 to 20 parts per thousand by weight, preferably in an amount of
from 0.1 to 10
parts per thousand by weight, based on the sum of the weight of components a),
b) and c).
Particular preference is given to the addition of from 1 to 10 parts per
thousand by weight
of SAP -001.

The reaction can also be performed in the presence of a catalyst which is
adsorbed on a
carrier and which comprises as the active material an alkali metal compound of
the
formula VII

MvAn (VII)
where
M is Li, Na, K, Rb or Cs,
v is the valency of An, and
An is a fluoride, hydroxide, phosphate, formate, acetate (generally,
carboxylate)
or -OR40 radical, and R40 is alkyl having 1 to 4 C atoms or a phenolate
radical,
and comprising as carrier an alkaline material which measured in 10% by weight
aqueous
suspension has a pH of greater than 10 and is selected from one or more
substances from
the series of the alkaline earth metal oxides, hydroxides, aluminates or
silicates.

The carrier substances from the series of the alkaline earth metal compounds
mentioned
can be present in hydrated or anhydrous form; the hydrated forms are
preferred.
Judicious supported catalysts are those comprising the oxides, hydroxides,
aluminates or
silicates of the alkaline earth metals Mg, Ca, Sr and Ba or mixtures thereof
as carriers.


CA 02237279 1998-05-11

- 15-

Particularly judicious carriers are the compounds MgO, Mg(OH)2, CaO, Ca(OH)2,
BaO,
Ba(OH)2, Ba(OH)2=8H20, calcined dolomite MgO.CaO, calcined and hydrated
dolomite
MgCa(OH)4, calcined barytocalcite BaO=CaO, calcined and hydrated barytocalcite
BaCa(OH)4, spinel MgA12O4, MgAl2O4=nH2O, CaA12O4, CaA12O4=nH2O, hydrocalumite
2Ca(OH)2=Al(OH)3=nH2O, Ca2SiO4, hillebrandite Ca2SiO4=H2O, foskagite and
mixtures
thereof.

Preference is given to CaO, MgO or a mixture of these, produced for example by
burning
dolomite CaCO3=MgCO3, as carrier.

Preferably, the carrier substances are essentially free from iron; in other
words, the content
of iron, including iron in the form of its compounds, should judiciously not
exceed
ppm. Overall, the carrier materials should be of high purity, also with
respect to further
metals, such as copper, lead and other heavy metals, for example. The copper
content
should judiciously be below 10 ppm, as should the content of heavy metals; for
example,
the lead content should be below 10 ppm, and overall (all heavy metals) the
content should
be, for example, below 40 ppm.

Likewise preferably, the carriers are substantially free from carbonate
groups. A carbonate
content of less than 0.1% by weight should judiciously be observed. Oxygen-
transferring
anions, such as Mn04 , Cr04 , AsO43-, N03-, for example, should judiciously be
present at
not more than 100 ppm, judiciously overall at not more than 200 ppm. Active
oxygen
should judiciously not exceed 100 ppm. Strongly acidic anions, examples being
SO42' or
Cl-, should judiciously be present at not more than 500 ppm each and
judiciously overall
at not more than 1000 ppm.

Judicious supported catalysts are those comprising as the active material the
hydroxides or
fluorides of the alkali metals Na, K, Rb or Cs.

Preferred active material is KOH, KF, NaOH, NaF or CsF; KOH or KF is
particularly
preferred.

The proportion of the active material is, for example, from 0.15 to 30% by
weight,
mathematically based on the anhydrous carrier. The percentage relates
mathematically to
the corresponding alkali metal ion alone, i.e. without taking into account the
respective
anion, whereas the figure for the carrier relates to the carrier as a whole.


CA 02237279 1998-05-11

-16-
Judiciously, from 0.15 to 10% by weight of active material is provided, and,
in a preferred
embodiment, there is from 1 to 10% by weight of active material, based in each
case on
the alkali metal ion and on the anhydrous carrier.

The reaction of components a), b) and c) can be carried out in component d) as
solvent,
examples being Norpar Ex 15 or Exxsol D-110 (from EXXON) or Marlican
(linear
alkylbenzene from HULS AG). The reaction of components a) and b) and c) is
preferably
carried out without solvent. The solvent and component d), for example Norpar
Ex 15 or
Exxsol D-110, is added subsequently.

The reaction temperature lies, for example, between 120 and 250 C. The
reaction is
preferably carried out in a temperature range from 150 to 200 C, particular
preference
being given to the range from 160 C to 190 C.

If components a), b) and c) are not commercially available, they can be
prepared by
known processes or analogously. Possible preparation processes for the
compounds of the
formula III can be found, for example, in the following publications: GB-A-0
996 502,

This reaction takes place with particular advantage with the aid of potassium
hydroxide
(30% strength solution) at from 80 to 150 C, in particular from 100 to 120 C.
Within this
temperature range the sterically hindered phenol is reacted with a small molar
excess of
unsaturated alkyl ester in, for example, a one-hour reaction and, following
the removal of
the excess ester by distillation the product is reacted with, for example,
coconut fat and
glycerol in the course, for example, of five hours at, for example, 190 C. If
desired, the
reaction is performed under vacuum or under an inert gas atmosphere. Lithium
methanolate, for example, is preferably employed as catalyst. However, it is
also possible
for the originally employed potassium hydroxide solution to catalyse the
reaction.

amines,
alkyls, alkenyls and/or aryls that may be either n- or a-coordinated. These
metal
complexes may be in the free form or fixed on substrates, for example on
activated magnesium chloride, titanium(III) chloride, alumina or silicon
oxide.
These catalysts may be soluble or insoluble in the polymerisation medium. The
catalysts can be active as such in the polymerisation or further activators
may
be used, for example metal alkyls, metal hydrides, metal alkyl halides, metal
alkyl oxides or metal alkyloxanes, the metals being elements of groups Ia, IIa
and/or IIIa of the Periodic Table. The activators may be modified, for
example,
with further ester, ether, amine or silyl ether groups. These catalyst systems

The invention therefore furthermore relates to compositions comprising an
organic

and at least
one product obtainable by reacting components a), b), c) and optionally d),
and to the use
of these products for stabilising organic material against oxidative, thermal
or
light-induced degradation.


CA 02237279 1998-05-11

-38-
The invention therefore also relates to a process for stabilising organic
material against
thermal, oxidative or light-induced degradation, which comprises adding, to
this material,
at least one product obtainable by reacting components a), b), c) and
optionally d).

The use of these products as antioxidants in organic materials is of
particular interest.
Preferred organic materials are polymers, for example synthetic polymers, in
particular
thermoplastic polymers. Particularly preferred organic materials are
polyolefins and
styrene copolymers, for example those mentioned above under items 1 to 3 and
items 6
and 7, in particular polyethylene and polypropylene as well as ABS and
styrene/butadiene
copolymers. The invention therefore preferably relates to compositions in
which the
organic material is a synthetic organic polymer or a mixture of such polymers,
in
particular a polyolefin or a styrene copolymer.

As a rule, the products are added to the material to be stabilised in amounts
from 0.01 to
%, preferably 0.01 to 5 %, in particular 0.01 to 2 %, relative to the total
weight of the
material to be stabilised. It is particularly preferred to employ the products
according to
the invention in amounts of 0.01 to 0.5 %, in particular 0.05 to 0.3 %.

The invention additionally relates to compositions comprising (x) an organic
material
which is subjected to oxidative, thermal or light-induced degradation, and (3)
at least one
product according to the invention.

Component (x) can be an optionally oxygen-containing hydrocarbon fuel, a
lubricant, a
hydraulic fluid, a metalworking fluid or a synthetic polymer. Mixtures of the
respective
components a) are also possible.

As already mentioned, the products according to the invention [component ((3)]
also
possess wear- and corrosion-inhibiting properties in fuels. Particularly
noteworthy is their
outstanding increase of the lubricity (antiwear properties) in fuels having a
low sulfur
content and/or aromatics content.

The present invention therefore also relates to the use of the products of
component (0) as
antiwear additives in an engine fuel system.


CA 02237279 1998-05-11

-39-
In general, the products of component (p) are added to the fuel in an amount
of from
0.0001 to 10%, preferably from 0.001 to 5% and, in particular, from 0.005 to
1%, based on
the weight of component ((x).

The products of component (0) can also be mixed with liquid carriers
compatible with the
end-product fuels in order to produce concentrates which are added
subsequently to base
fuels or formulated fuels. Such concentrates may facilitate the mixing,
intermixing,
pouring or transfer (on mass or in units/portions) of the products of
component (0).

The carriers are customarily organic solvents for the products of component
(0), examples
being hydrocarbons such as xylol or toluene, ethers, alcohols or mixtures
thereof, or they
may be constituents of the base fuels or of the formulated fuels which are
desired as end
products. The addition of the concentrates to the base materials of formulated
fuels in
order to obtain end-product fuels can be carried out discontinuously, for
example from
unit containers with concentrates which are obtainable in retail or at other
points of sale,
or by means of additions within refineries or fuel distribution sites. Further
methods of
addition are likewise possible.

The products of component (0) may be present in different amounts in the
concentrate,
depending on the desired properties of the concentrate, such as its viscosity.
A suitable
amount in the carrier medium, in general, is from approximately 10 to 90% by
weight,
more usually from approximately 20 to 50% by weight, of the products of
component ((3).
The end-product fuels can be hydrocarbons, oxygen-containing compounds or
mixtures
thereof. The hydrocarbon fractions which can be used for the fuel compositions
include
distillate fuels whose boiling points are in the kerosene and gas-oil range
(165 to 565 C).
Customary middle-distillate fuels of this kind include road diesel and other
diesel oils
having boiling points in the range from 200 to 370 C, and also jet fuels,
kerosenes, gas-oil
and cycle oils. Middle-distillate fuels of this kind can be straight-run
distillate oils,
catalytically or thermally cracked distillate fuel oils or mixtures of
straight-run
combustion oils/heavy oils/heating oils/oils, naphthas and similar materials
with cracked
distillate materials. These fuels are normally derived from petroleum, but may
also derive
at least partly from other sources, for example slate, tar sands, coal,
lignite, biomass and
the like. The fuels may include a proportion of oxygen-containing co-
components, for
example alcohols or ethers, including methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE). The
fuels may also
comprise in their entirety oxygen-containing compounds such as methanol and/or
ethanol.


CA 02237279 1998-05-11

-40-
Also suitable are those fuels which have been subjected to conventional
treatment
processes, for example a treatment with an acid or base, hydrogenation,
solvent refining or
an earthing treating.

Of particular interest are compositions in which component (a) is a diesel
fuel.

The fuels can be employed, for example, in the operation of jet, motor-
vehicle, gas turbine
or diesel engines. In a preferred embodiment of this invention a fuel is used
which is
suitable for use in a diesel engine.

The composition of these diesel fuels is highly variable, in accordance with
the nature of
the crude oil, the refining process, the components with which the crude oil
is mixed and
the climate in which the fuel is to be sold. As noted earlier above, this
invention is
employed primarily in the diesel fuels with a reduced sulfur content and/or
aromatics
content, which are produced nowadays to comply with local statutory
requirements/regulations. These fuels normally have a sulfur content of less
than 500 ppm
(0.05%) and/or an aromatics content of less than 35% by weight.

Consequently, compositions of particular interest include those in which
component (a) is
a fuel which contains less than 0.10% by weight, preferably less than 0.05% by
weight
and, in particular, less than 0.01% by weight of sulfur.

The composition of the fuel, and hence also its inherent lubricity, can vary
in accordance
with the level of the requirements of the local statutory regulations.

The invention is also employed in aviation fuels, for example in those which
generally are
used in jet turbine engines. Fuels of this kind have a composition close to
that of the diesel
oils with a low content of aromatics and of sulfur. The addition of the
products of
component (p) according to the invention to these fuels may reduce wear in the
engine.
The invention could also be employed in lead-free or reformed automotive fuels
which are
now generally used in aircraft piston engines and in motor vehicles. The
addition of the
products of component (p) to these fuels may improve engine performance and
makes it
possible to employ the fuel in place of leaded fuels, in use for example in
aircraft piston
engines where leaded fuel is currently used.


CA 02237279 1998-05-11

-41-
Therefore, the present invention also relates to a method of reducing wear in
an engine
fuel system, which comprises adding a product of component (p) to the fuel.

In addition to the products of component (0) the compositions according to the
invention
may also include conventional additives which are added in order to improve
still further
the basic properties of the fuel, as is described in the handbook "Lubricant
and Fuel
Additives", Kline & Company Inc., International Business Consultants,
Fairfield, NJ,
USA, pages 309-320 (1990). These additives include: antioxidants, metal
passivators, rust
protection agents, viscosity improvers, pour-point depressants, dispersants,
detergents,
high-pressure additives, friction-reducing additives, antiwear additives,
demulsifiers,
cloud-point depressants, waxlike antisettling additives, antistatic additives,
defoamers,
evaporation additives, biocides, odour masks, colorants, ignition
accelerators, antifreezes,
antiknock additives, conductivity improvers, PFI/IVD purity additives and
other lubricity
additives.

In addition to the product, the compositions according to the invention can
also contain
conventional additives, for example those mentioned below.

The conventional additives are added for example at concentrations of 0.01 to
10 % based
on the total weight of the material to be stabilised.

The products and, if desired, other additives, can be incorporated into the
organic material
by known methods. They can be incorporated in the materials for example by
admixing or
applying the products and, if desired, other additives by the methods
conventionally used
in the art. If the materials are polymers, in particular synthetic polymers,
the products can


CA 02237279 1998-05-11

-53-
be incorporated before or during shaping or by applying the dissolved or
dispersed
products to the polymer, with or without subsequent evaporation of the
solvent. In the case
of elastomers, the latter can also be stabilised in the form of the latices. A
further
possibility of incorporating the products according to the invention into
polymers is the
addition of the former before, during or immediately after polymerization of
the
monomers in question, or before crosslinking. The products according to the
invention can
be added as they are, but also in encapsulated fonn (for example in waxes,
oils or
polymers). If they are added before or during polymerization, the products
according to
the invention can also act as chain length regulators for the polymers (chain
terminators).
The products according to the invention can also be added to the materials to
be stabilised
in the form of a masterbatch comprising, for example, a concentration of 2.5
to 25 % by
weight of the product according to the invention.

The materials which have been stabilised in this manner can be used in a
multitude of
ways, for example in the form of films, fibres, tapes, moulding materials,
sections or as
binders for varnishes, adhesives or cements.

Preference is given to compositions according to the invention comprising a) a
lubricant, a
hydraulic fluid, a metal-working fluid or a fuel, for example for driving
engines of the
4-stroke Otto, 2-stroke, diesel, Wankel and also the orbital type, and (3) at
least one
product according to the invention.

Particularly preferred as lubricants are the mineral oils, the synthetic oils
or mixtures of
these.

The products known per se are used from the series of the lubricants, the
hydraulic fluids
and the metal-working fluids.

The lubricants and hydraulic fluids which are suitable are known to those
skilled in the art
and described, for example, in Dieter Klamann "Schmierstoffe und verwandte
Produkte"
[Lubricants and Related Products], Verlag Chemie, Weinheim, 1982, in Schewe-
Kobek,
"Das Schmiermittel-Taschenbuch" [Lubricants Guide], Dr. Alfred Huthig-Verlag,
Heidelberg, 1974, or in "Ullmanns Encyklopadie der technischen Chemie"
[Ullmann's
Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry], Volume 13, pages 85-94 (Verlag Chemie,
Weinheim, 1977).

Ex;imples are lubricants and hydraulic fluids based on mineral oil or
synthetic lubricants
or hydraulic fluids, in particular those which are derivatives of carboxylic
esters and
which are used at temperatures of 200 C and above.

Examples of synthetic lubricants embrace lubricants based on a diester of a
dibasic acid
with a monovalent alcohol, for example dioctyl sebacate or dinonyl adipate, a
triester of
trimethylolpropane with a monobasic acid or a mixture of such acids, for
example
trimethylolpropane tripelargonate, trimethylolpropane tricaprylate or mixtures
of these, a
tetraester of pentaerythritol with a monobasic acid or with a mixture of such
acids, for
example pentaerythritol tetracaprylate, or a complex ester of monobasic and
dibasic acids
with polyhydric alcohols, for example a complex ester of trimethylolpropane
with caprylic
and sebacic acid or a mixture of these.

Particularly suitable are, besides mineral oils, for example poly-a-olefins,
lubricants based
on esters, or phosphates, glycols, polyglycols and polyalkylene glycols, and
mixtures of
these with water.

The products according to the invention are oils and readily soluble
lubricants and
therefore particularly suitable as additives to lubricants, and mention must
be made of
their surprisingly good antioxidative and anticorrosive action.

The products according to the invention can display their surprising
properties for example
in lubricants for combustion engines, for example in combustion engines
operating by the
Otto principle. The products according to the invention prevent the formation
of deposits
(sludge), or reduce these deposits to a surprising extent.

So-called masterbatches can also be prepared.

The products according to the invention are active as additives in lubricants
even when
used in very small amounts. They are admixed to the lubricants advantageously
in an
amount of 0.01 to 5 % by weight, preferably in an amount of 0.05 to 3 % by
weight and
particularly preferably in an amount of 0.1 to 2 % by weight, in each case
based on the
lubricant.

The lubricants can additionally comprise other additives which are added to
improve the
basic properties of lubricants even further; these include: antioxidants,
metal passivators,

one hour and following the removal of excess methyl acrylate by distillation,
80.0 g
(= 0.118 mol) of coconut fat (MW - 678 g/mol), 20.0 g(- 0.022 mol) of castor
oil
(MW = 922 g/mol) and 75.77 g (0.823 mol) of glycerol are added. Over the
course of 18
to 19 hours, the reaction mixture is held at a temperature of 180 to 190 C
under a nitrogen
atmosphere. After the mixture has been cooled to room temperature, 121.4 g of
Norpar
Ex 15 are added. Filtration gives 594.9 g (98% of theory) of the product as a
reddish oil
with a refractive index nD20 of 1.4913.

Example 10:

106.05 g (1.232 mol) of methyl acrylate are added over 1 hour to a mixture of
185.06 g
(1.127 mol) of 2-tert-butyl-6-methylphenol and 6.34 g (0.034 mol) of 30%
strength
potassium hydroxide solution, this addition taking place in a sulfonating
flask provided
with reflux condenser and mechanical stirrer, under vacuum and at 110 C. After
a reaction
time of one hour and following the removal of excess methyl acrylate by
distillation,
100.0 g(- 0.147 mol) of coconut fat (MW = 678 g/mol) and 81.0 g (0.880 mol) of
glycerol are added. Over the course of 1 hour under a nitrogen atmosphere the
mixture is
heated to a temperature of 180 C. The reaction mixture is stirred at this
temperature for 9
hours more, in the course of which water and methanol are distilled off. The
cooled, crude
product is taken up in toluene and water and the phases are neutralized with
citric acid.
After multiple washing with water the organic phase is dried and is
subsequently
concentrated by evaporation, giving 387.5 g (96% of theory) of the product as
a
orange-coloured syrup with a refractive index nD20 of 1.5148.

Example A: "Deposit and Oxidation Panel Test" (DOPT)

The deposit and oxidation panel test (DOPT) is a variant of a test method for
engine oils,
in particular for diesel engine oils, which has been described by G.
Abellaneda et al., IIIrd
Symposium CEC, 1989, 61, New Cavendish Street, London WIM 8AR, England. The
suitability of the oils with stabiliser for preventing deposits on the pistons
is tested.

The test time is 20 hours, the panel temperature 260 C and the oil flex 1
ml/minutes. The
humid atmospheric environment is enriched with 260 ppm of NO2 and 26 ppm of
SO2.
After the test, the metal panel onto which the oil drops is weighed and
assessed visually.
The lower the weight, the better. The lubricating oil used is a commercial CD
oil which is
diluted with the basic oil STANCO 150 . The stabilisers according to the
invention are
admixed to this prepared oil in amounts of 0.6 % by weight based on the oil,
and this is
subjected to a DOPT test.

The products according to the invention exhibit a good stabilising effect.

Example B: Test for antiwear protection.

To test the stabilisers according to the invention for their suitability as
antiwear protection
agents, the ASTM standard method D 2783-81 using the Shell four ball apparatus
is used.
The basic oil used is BB oil [Mobil Stock, carbon (aromatic) 6.5 %; carbon
(aliphatic)
72 %; carbon (naphthylic) 21.5 %]. The parameter measured during one hour is
the mean
wear scar diameter in mm at a load of 40 kg. The stabilisers according to the
invention are
added to this oil in an amount of 1.0 % by weight. The lower the values, the
better the
stabilising effect.

The products according to the invention exhibit a good stabilising effect.
