Process for reducing the corrosivity of phenol sulfides

专利摘要

Sulfurized phenols, e.g., phenol sulfides, disulfides or polysulfides, oligomers thereof or mixtures of same when treated with alkyl vinyl ethers provide excellent metal anti-corrosivity characteristics without significant reduction of antioxidant, antiwear or other desired properties when incorporated into organic media such as lubricants. ......

权利要求: I claim:1. A method of improving and/or substantially eliminating the metal corrosivity of sulfurized phenols by treating said sulfurized phenols or mixtures thereof with a C.sub.1 -C.sub.20 alkyl vinyl ether said treatment comprising contacting said phenol with said ether in a suitable reaction zone at a temperature of from about 20.degree. to 150.degree. C. in a mole ratio of alkyl vinyl ether to sulfurized phenol of from about 0.1 to about 20:1 and thereafter isolating and recovering said treated sulfurized phenol.2. The method of claim 1 wherein said sulfurized phenol is selected from the group consisting of phenolic monosulfides, disulfides and polysulfides, or mixtures thereof, and 2,2'-thiobisalkylphenols, 2,2'-dithiobis alkylphenols and oligomers or mixtures thereof wherein said alkyl group contains from 1 to about 20 carbon atoms.3. The method of claim 2 wherein said sulfurized phenols are treated with a C.sub.1 -C.sub.12 alkyl vinyl ether.4. The method of claim 1 wherein said sulfurized phenol is sulfurized 2-methyl-4-tertiary-butylphenol.5. The method of claim 4 wherein said sulfurized phenol is treated with butyl vinyl ether.6. the method of claim 1 wherein said sulfurized phenol is sulfurized 4-tertiary-octylphenol.7. The method of claim 6 wherein said sulfurized phenol is treated with ethyl vinyl ether.8. The method of claim 1 wherein said phenol is mixed 2-tertiary-butyl-4-methyl-p-cresol sulfurized phenol.9. The method of claim 8 wherein said sulfurized phenol is treated with butyl vinyl ether.10. The method of claim 2 wherein said sulfurized phenol is 2,2'-thiobis-(4-tertiary-octylphenol).11. The method of claim 10 wherein said sulfurized phenol is sequentially treated with ethyl vinyl ether and butyl vinyl ether.12. The method of claim 1 wherein a catalyst is present.13. The method of claim 12 wherein said catalyst is selected from a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 monocarboxylic acid.14. The method of claim 13 wherein said catalyst is acetic acid.15. The method of claim 1 wherein a solvent is present, said solvent being selected from benzene, toluene and xylene.16. The method of claim 1 wherein the sulfurized phenols are treated in the presence of a catalyst and/or a solvent.
