SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION (0011) The instant invention is directed to esters and/or thioesters having carbamate/thiocarbamate and/or amide function generated by reaction of alkanolamines and/or alkylamines with cyclic carbonates, cyclic lactones, cyclic thiocarbonates, cyclic dithiocarbonates, cyclic thiolactones and mixtures thereof to generate hydroxycarbamate, hydroxythiocarbamate, mercaptocarbamate or mercaptothiocarbamate intermediates. These intermediates are further reacted with monocarboxylic acids to generate carbamate polyesters and/or the corresponding sulfur-containing compounds. These carbamate polyesters and corresponding sulfur-containing compounds having esters and carbamates and/or amides have been found to be particularly effective lubricants that are biodegradable and exhibit low toxicity. These compounds may also promote detergency and are economical. Higher viscosity complex multifunctional esters have been obtained when polycarboxylic acids or anhydrides and/or polyamines are used.

(0012) For the sake of convenience, the present invention shall hereafter be discussed in terms of cyclic carbonates and cyclic lactones, generally without further express reference to the corresponding sulfur-containing compounds, i. e., thiolactones, thiocarbonates and dithiocarbonates. Additionally, the carbonyl oxygen in any of the previously mentioned compounds may also be replaced with sulfur. It is understood that the corresponding sulfur-containing compounds are also included within the scope of the invention.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (0013) In accordance with this invention, there is provided a lubricant composition including a lubricating oil or grease prepared therefrom using the reaction product E produced as shown below in Equations I and II : wherein R selected from hydrogen, hydrocarbyl radical, alkenyl radical, and alkyl (Cl-C60) radical, and optionally containing an aryl, alkaryl, oxygen, sulfur, or nitrogen substituent; Rl is selected from a Cl to C4 alkylene radical, i. e., (CH2) n where n= 1 to 4 and a Cl to C4 alkylene radical having an alkyl group substituent, with the proviso that both R1 groups may not be the same on the amine nitrogen; R2 and R3 are each independently selected from an alkylene radical and an alkylene radical having an alkyl group substituent; R2 and R3 may each independently be different from or the same as Rl ; Z and Zl are each selected independently from O and S; and X is selected from OH, SH, and NHY, where Y is selected from hydrogen and an alkyl radical; and Xl is selected from O, S, and NY, where Y is selected from hydrogen and an alkyl radical; and n = 3.

(0014) Alternatively, X may also be CR4R5R6, where R4, R5 and R6 are each independently selected from hydrogen, a hydrocarbyl radical, alkenyl radical, and an alkyl (Cl-C60) radical and which optionally may contain an aryl, alkaryl, oxygen, sulfur, or nitrogen substituent. One embodiment according to this invention in which n = 1 and X is CR4R5R6 provides final products that are carbamate monoesters and have the following general formula: (R4R5R6C-R1-) 2NCOZ (R2) (R3) Z'OCR (F).

(0015) When compound A has X selected from oxygen and sulfur, primarily the amine nitrogen reacts with the cyclic carbonate or lactone to form, respectively, a carbamate triol/trithiol or amide triol/trithiol under typical reaction conditions (about 40°C to about 100°C and about 1 hour to about 6 hours).

(0016) When X in compound A is a reactive nitrogen (primary or secondary), there is reduced selectivity and one or more of the following intermediate compounds may be formed depending of the stoichiometry of the reactants: (YHN-R'-) 2NH + (R2) ZCOZ' (R3)-> (YHN-Rl-) 2NCOZ (R2) (R3) Z1H (A) (B) (C) + [HZ1(R3)(R2)ZOCNY-R1-]2NCOZ(R2)(R3)Z1H (a) + [HZ1(R3)(R2)ZOCNY-R1-](YHN-R1-)NCOZ(R2)(R3)Z1H (ß) + [HZ1(R3)(R2)ZOCNY-R1-]2NH (Y) (YHN-R1-)HN (R1YN)COZ1(R3(R2)ZH (#) (0017) Compound α is the primary intermediate if three moles of cyclic carbonate or lactone are used to react with one mole of the polyamine. sing less carbonate or lactone may result in the possible formation of all five intermediates and some unreacted amine.

(0018) Reaction of compound a with carboxylic acid D generates polycarbamate polyesters (when compound B is a carbonate) or polyamide polyesters (when compound B is a lactone).

(0019) The ratio of the amine may be adjusted to the amount of the carbonate or lactone used in order to generate primarily one compound or mixture of compounds C, a, ß, y and 6.

(0020) In another embodiment according to the present invention, only one of the amine substituents contains an ester-generating group. One embodiment, in which n = 2, provides final products that are carbamate diesters having the general formula: (RCOX-R-) (R4RSR6C-Rl-) NCOZ (R2) (R3) ZIOCR (G), wherein R, Rl, R', R3, R4, R5, R6, Xl, Z and Z'are as described above.

(0021) The present invention also includes a method of preparing carbamate polyester E, as shown in Equations I and II. An amine A and a cyclic carbonate B are mixed under conditions sufficient to cause a reaction to form hydroxycarbamate intermediate C as shown in Equation I. An acid D and, optionally a catalyst, is added to the hydroxycarbamate intermediate C to generate the polyester carbamate E product, which results from esterification of the hydroxycarbamate intermediate C and acid D, as shown in Equation II when X1 = O. A thioester group is formed when XI = S and an amide group is formed when XI = NY. The hydroxycarbamate intermediate C, or sulfur and amine analogs, may be isolated and purified prior to subsequent reaction with a carboxylic acid D.

An anhydride may be used in place of the acid D. Although subsequent discussion shall be in terms of an acid D, it is understood that the term acid shall also include anhydrides, esters, acid chlorides and equivalents thereof.

Alternatively, the hydroxycarbamates C may be treated with carboxylic acids D without prior isolation or purification to form the polyester carbamate E. (0022) The present invention also includes a method of preparing amide esters M, N and O by reacting amine A with lactone K to form the intermediate L. See Equations VI, VII, VIII and IX, infra. The intermediate L is treated with acid D to form the product M, N or O, depending on the nature of amine A. The method is similar to that described above for cyclic carbonates.

(0023) The reaction steps may be performed in any solvent that provides at least sufficient partial solubility of the reactants to permit the formation of the desired products. In this context, solvent refers to a material other than one of the reactants or products. The reaction may also be conducted in the absence of a solvent when at least one of the reactants is a liquid in which the other reactants have sufficient solubility to allow formation of the desired products.

Alternatively, the reaction may also be conducted in the absence of a solvent when at least one of the reactants has a melting point low enough to permit melting of the reactant and has sufficient ability to dissolve the other reactants to permit formation of the desired products.

(0024) The reactions may be performed as batch, semi-batch or continuous operations. The reactions may be conducted in any conventional reactors. One of ordinary skill in the art can select appropriate reactors and can also select appropriate conditions for batch, semi-batch, and continuous operations.

(0025) Stoichiometric quantities of amines, cyclic carbonates and acids are preferred. However, an excess of one of the reagents may be suitable. The ratio of amine to cyclic carbonate or amine to lactone may range from about 10: 1 to about 1: 10.

(0026) Suitable alkylene carbonates B include, but are not limited to, cyclic ethylene carbonate and propylene carbonate. Mixtures of alkylene carbonates may also be used. The corresponding monothio-, dithio-and trithiocarbonates may also be used. The molar ratio of amine to carbonate or lactone is chosen to provide the desired ratio of intermediate compounds, which are then treated with acid D.

(0027) When cyclic carbonates are used in less than stoichiometric quantities, i. e. , when excess amine is present, mixtures of carbamate esters and amide esters are obtained. The amine to carbonate ratio may range from about 1: 10 to about 10: 1. The amine to carbonate ratio is typically more than or equal to about 1. An excess of amine may be used provided that reaction time and temperature are selected to reduce or minimize, or preferably to prevent, reaction of two molar equivalents of amine with one molar equivalent of carbonate which would result in a urea by-product and a glycol by-product. Generally, reaction conditions used to form intermediate C do not lead to the formation of such urea and gylcol by- products even in the presence of a large excess of amine A. Any excess unreacted amine may be recovered by conventional methods.

(0028) The molar ratio of amine to lactone is typically from about 1: 10 to about 10: 1. However, a large molar excess of amine to lactone may be used since the intermediate hydroxycarbamate L, formed from reaction of the amine and the lactone, will not undergo further reaction to form urea or glycol by-products.

(0029) The reaction of amine A with a cyclic carbonate B results in the formation of a hydroxyl group, in addition to a carbamate group, in intermediate C. The molar ratio of acid D to the hydroxyl group formed in intermediate C is typically about 1 : 1. An excess of acid D may be used with the unreacted excess acid D being recovered by conventionalethods.

(0030) Intermediate C may have multiple heteroatoms, i. e. , oxygen, nitrogen and sulfur, capable of reaction with the acid D. The molar ratio of acid D to intermediate C may be adjusted on a molar basis to permit complete or partial reaction of the heteroatoms with acid D to form esters, amides or thioesters, respectively. For example, when X = OH, then carbamate triesters, carbamate diesters and/or carbamate monoesters may be made.

(0031) Amides and/or amide esters may be made directly, by reaction of amine A with acid D, having one less ester group than would be present in reaction product of intermediate C, made by the reaction of amine A with cyclic carbonate B, followed by reaction of C with an acid D. For applications in which an amide ester is desirable, amines and carboxylic acids react to generate amide ester fluids, which generally have higher viscosities and sometimes are more economical than corresponding carbamate esters.

(0032) Amide diesters, amide monoesters, and/or amides are made by reacting the amine A, in which X=OH, with excess carboxylic acid D. The products may be a single compound or a mixture of compounds. The reaction product may include compounds of one or all of the following formulae depending on the nature of the amines used: X=oH, R4R5R6C, Xl =OwhereXandXI are as defined above. The corresponding sulfur and nitrogen compounds may be prepared where X = SH or NHY, wherein Y is defined as above, and Xl = S or NY, respectively.

(0033) Similar amide function containing products can be obtained by using cyclic lactones in place of carbonates. Generally amide monoesters, amide diesters, and amide triesters result from the reaction described below when Z + Zl and Z = CR7R8 : n=1 (R4R5C-R1-)2NCOCR7R8 (R2)(R3)Z1OCR (VIII) (N) n=2 (RCOX1-R1-)(R4R5R6C-R1-)NCOCR7R8(R2)(R3)Z1OCR <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> (IX)<BR> (O) (0034) X1, X1, Z1, R, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5 and R6 are as defined above. R7 and R8 are each independently hydrogen, a hydrocarbyl radical, an alkenyl radical, and an alkyl (Cl-C60) radical and optionally containing one or more of an aryl, alkaryl, oxygen, sulfur or nitrogen substituent.

(0035) In all cases described above, multifunctional carboxylic acids and/or carboxylic anhydrides may be used as substitutes for part or all of the monocarboxylic acids to generate higher viscosity complex mixtures containing polycarbamate polyesters and/or polyamide polyesters in addition to the compounds described above. Suitable multifuctional carboxylic acids include, but are not limited to, adipic acid, succinic acid, maleic acid, azelaic acid, sebacic acid, malonic acid, malic acid, citric acid, phthalic acid, trimellitic acid, pyromellitic acid and the like. Multifunctional anhydrides include, but are not limited to, adipic anhydride, succinic anhydride, maleic anhydride, azelaic anhydride, sebacic anhydride, malonic anhydride, malic anhydride, citric anhydride, phthalic anhydride, trimellitic anhydride, pyromellitic anhydride and the like.

(0036) Temperatures between about 25°C and about 350°C with reaction times of from about 1 hours to about 36 hours are generally applied. The preferred temperatures for the intermediate reactions between the amines and the cyclic carbonates and/or lactones are between from about 40°C and about 100°C with corresponding preferred times between from about 1 hour to about 6 hours.

Temperatures between 160°C and 225°C and times between 6 hours and 24 hours are preferred for the reactions of esterification of the intermediates and amidations of carboxylic acids.

(0037) Suitable esterification catalysts include, but are not limited to, inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, and acidified clays; and organic acids such as methane sulfonic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, toluene sulfonic acid, and acidic resins. Other suitable esterification catalysts include, but are not limited to, alkali metal alkoxide such as sodium aluminate/alumina ; zinc or manganese acetates; and organometallics such as organo-tin or organo- titanates.

(0038) Suitable amines include, but are not limited to, alkylamines; cycloaklamines; arylamines; etheramines; dialkylamines such as dimethylamine, diethylamine, and di (2-ethylhexyl) amine; dicycloalkylamines; diarylamines; alkyl (hydroxyalkyl) amines; dietheramines; di (hydroxyalkyl) amines such as diethanolamine, and diisopropanolamine; cyclic amines such as pyrrolidine, piperidine, homopiperidine, morpholine, and thiomorpholine; cyclic diamines such as piperazine, homopiperazine; polyamines such as ethylenediamine, diethylenetriamine, triethylenetetraamine, tetraethylenepentamine and polyethylene amine; other diamines having sufficient reactivity to react with a cyclic carbonate or cyclic lactone; and mixtures thereof.

(0039) Suitable cyclic carbonates include, but are not limited to, alkylene carbonates such as ethylene carbonate and propylene carbonate; thioalkylene carbonates such as ethylene trithiocarbonate; and mixtures thereof. Other suitable compounds include, but are not limited to, cyclic lactones such as (3-lactones, y- lactones, 8-lactones and mixtures thereof. Mixtures of one or more cyclic carbonates with one or more cyclic lactones may also be used. The corresponding monothio-, dithio-and trithiocarbonates are also suitable.

Example 1 : (0040) Diethanolamine (270 grams, 2.6 moles) and propylene carbonate (258 grams, 2.5 moles) were heated at 80°C for 2 hours under a nitrogen atmosphere. Sodium aluminate/alumina (0. 5g/l. Og) was added as a catalyst. Heptanoic acid (365 grams, 2. 8 moles) and octanoic/decanoic acid mixture (774 grams, 5.0 moles) were added. The octanoic/decanoic acid mixture is about 60 weight % octanoic acid and about 40 weight % decanoic acid. The reaction mixture was heated at 185°C. The water formed during the reaction was constantly removed by distillation using a Dean-Stark apparatus. The reaction was stopped after 14 hours, when titration showed an acid number of about 0. The reaction mixture was then filtered through Celiteg to obtain about 1500 grams of clear slightly yellow liquid.

(0041) The reaction procedure of Example 1 is typical of the procedures used to make representative fluids such as the examples presented below. Physical characteristics for diethanolamine derivatives are listed in Table I and for other amine derivatives in Table 2. Table 2 contains test results showing that some of these compounds may be suitable for use as refrigeration fluids due to their compatibility with the polar refrigerant R-134a. Derivatives of diethanolamine, however, demonstrated poor wear protection and incompatibility with some of the material encountered in the refrigeration machines such as polyethyleneterephthalate (PET). The incompatibility with PET is shown by immersion test ASHRAE 86. The test method is provided by the American Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air-conditioning Engineers.

Example 2: (0042) This reaction was conducted in a manner similar to Example 1, using 421 grams (4 moles) of diethanolamine, 301 grams (3 moles) of propylene carbonate, 912 grams (5.9 moles) of octanoic/decanoic acid mixture, 1665 grams (5.9 moles) of oleic acid, and 0.66 gram of alumina and 1.3 grams of sodium aluminate as catalyst. In addition to the Celite used in Example 1, calcium carbonate was added to the filter bed before filtration of the final product to remove residual unreacted acid. 2845 grams of clear brown liquid was obtained.

(0043) The product of this example is a mixture of carbamate polyesters and amide polyesters designed to obtain an improved, or preferably an optimum, viscosity for use as two-cycle engine lubricant basestock. The fluid was then mixed with three additive packages and tested for both air-cooled and water- cooled two-cycle engine applications.

The physical properties of the products from this reaction were compared to those of products obtained using pentaerythritol and the same carboxylic acids (see Table 5). Also presented in Table 6 are biodegradability and fish toxicity test results for amide diesters and higher viscosity complex polyamide polyesters. The complex polyamide polyesters were made similarly by replacing some of the monocarboxylic acids by dicarboxylic acids or anhydrides.

Approximately, 0.5 moles of dicarboxylic acid or anhydride was substituted for 1 mole of monocarboxylic acid.
