The method includes reaction of unsubstituted diphenylamine with at least two olefins. In at least some instances, the alkylated diphenylamine composition may be used, for example, as an antioxidant in a lubricating fluid or polymer composition.

  • Patent number: 6028225
    Abstract: Hydroxy-substituted hydroxylamine antioxidants can be prepared by reacting hydroxylamine or a mono-substituted hydroxylamine, in free base form, with an epoxide. The antioxidant reaction product can be used without isolation from the reaction solution, and combined with a color developing agent to provide a photographic color developing composition in either concentrated or working strength formulations. The method for preparing the antioxidant is rapid and efficient because of the use of the free base form of the hydroxylamine reactant, higher temperatures (at or above 50.degree. C.) and certain molar ratios of reactants.

  • Patent number: 5962739
    Abstract: The present invention provides a process for the production of an N,N-dialkylaminophenyl alkanol having the formula: ##STR1## in which R.sub.1 and R.sub.2, independently, are C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, R.sub.3 is hydrogen, halogen, cyano, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl or C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy and n is an integer from 1 to 4, comprising reacting an aminophenyl alkanol having the formula: ##STR2## in which R.sub.3 and n have their previous significance, with at least two moles of a dialkylsulfate having the formula: ##STR3## in which R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 have their previous significance. N,N-dialkylaminophenyl alkanols so obtained are valuable as intermediates for a wide range of end-products and are also useful, e.g., as accelerators for the peroxide-catalyzed polymerization of vinyl monomers, especially in polymerizable or curable formulations employed in dental applications.

  • Patent number: 5840979
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of a group of propargylamines of the general formula (I) ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 is hydrogen or CH.sub.3 and R.sup.2 is (CH.sub.2).sub.n CH.sub.3 and n is an integer from 0 to 16, and salts thereof, as cellular rescue agents in the treatment and prevention of diseases in which cell death occurs by apoptosis. Some of the compounds of formula I are novel. The invention is also directed to the use of these compounds in the treatment of these diseases, as well as to processes for the preparation of the compounds.

  • Patent number: 5817831
    Abstract: Aliphatic hydrocarbyl-substituted aromatic amines are prepared by reacting an aromatic amine and an aliphatic hydrocarbylating agent, such as an olefin, in the presence of a heteropolyacid catalyst such as Cs.sub.2.5 H.sub.0.5 PW.sub.12 O.sub.40, for a period of time and at a temperature sufficient to permit reaction.

  • Patent number: 5750787
    Abstract: A process for monoalkylating diphenylamine using a clay catalyst is disclosed which results in a reaction product having substantial amounts of desirable monoalkylated diphenylamine and minimal amounts of less desirable disubstituted diphenylamine and unsubstituted diphenylamine. The disclosed process uses clay catalysts which favor monoalkylation over dialkylation and specific conditions such as reaction temperature, mole ratios of alkylating olefin to diphenylamine, reaction times, and catalyst amounts. Preferred olefins are diisobutylene and linear alpha olefins having from 6 or 8 to 18 carbon atoms. When more than 1 wt. % residual unreacted diphenylamine is present it may be converted to alkylated diphenylamine by reacting with styrene, alpha-methylstyrene or isobutylene.
