Abstract: Adducts are formed in a process which involves the reaction of an olefin, including olefin polymers, with a dimeric thionophosphine sulfide. Further derivatives may be formed by reacting the resulting olefin-thionophosphine sulfide adduct products with amines, e.g., alkylene polyamines, aziridines, phosphines or metal salts, e.g., zinc salts. Or, alkylene polyamine- or aziridine- treated olefin-thionophosphine sulfide reaction products may be further reacted with metal salts, e.g., zinc acetate. A representative material can be prepared by reacting polyisobutylene with an arylthionophosphine sulfide, and then further reacting the resulting cyclic bis(phosphinodithioic acid) anhydride product with an alkylene polyamine or aziridine, which in turn, may be further modified by reaction with zinc acetate.The oil soluble olefin-thionophosphine sulfide products, as well as its oil soluble derivatives outlined above, may be used as additives for lubricating oil, and petroleum fuels, e.g., gasoline or fuel oil.

Abstract: Esters of alkyl-substituted hydroxyaromatic carboxylic acids (especially alkyl-substituted salicylic acids) and the like, in which the alkyl substituent contains at least about 10 carbon atoms, are useful as dispersant additives for lubricants and fuels. Particularly useful are esters in which the substituent is derived from propylene, 1-butene or isobutene and has a molecular weight of about 150-1750, and in which the alkyl moiety is derived from pentaerythritol. Such esters are preferably prepared by the reaction of the corresponding organic hydroxy compound with a vic-hydroxyalkyl ester of the salicylic acid.

Abstract: The present invention relates in part to novel amido, cycloamido, carbonylamido and sulfonylamido derivatives and p-substituted phenyl esters of 9-deoxy-9-methylene-PGF-type compounds. These novel amides produce surprisingly prolonged oral activity as pharmacological agents, as compared to the previously known 9-deoxy-9-methylene-PGF-type compounds.Further, the novel p-substituted phenyl esters provide more stable pharmaceutical formulations as compared to known 9-deoxy-9-methylene-PGF-type esters.Additionally, a novel series of 16-phenyl-9-deoxy-9-methylene-PGF-type compounds in free acid, ester, C-1 alcohol, and C-1 amine form is provided. Such compounds exhibit characteristic prostaglandin-type pharmacological actions.
