Abstract
Abstract A process for producing oil-soluble anionic metal sulfonates is disclosed wherein an anionic metal acid anhydride or its corresponding hydrate is reacted with an oil-soluble sulfonic acid and a polyamine compound to produce the desired metal sulfonate. The metal constituent of the anionic metal acid anhydride is selected from the group consisting of silicon, molybdenum, vanadium, arsenic, phosphorus, selenium, boron and tellurium.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim
111 words
A process of producing a reaction product of a polyamine compound, an oil-soluble sulfonic acid and arsenic oxide or a hydrate thereof comprising: a. admixing said arsenic oxide or hydrate thereof and said oil-soluble sulfonic acid with said polyamine compound, said sulfonic acid being present in sufficient amount to neutralize at least one amine group of said polyamine, and at least one amine group of said polyamine being available to react with said arsenic oxide or hydrate thereof; b. agitating and heating the resulting mixture to the reflux temperature of said mixture for a period of time sufficient to allow formation of said reaction product; and c. recovering said reaction product.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
111 words
A process of producing a reaction product of a polyamine compound, an oil-soluble sulfonic acid and arsenic oxide or a hydrate thereof comprising: a. admixing said arsenic oxide or hydrate thereof and said oil-soluble sulfonic acid with said polyamine compound, said sulfonic acid being present in sufficient amount to neutralize at least one amine group of said polyamine, and at least one amine group of said polyamine being available to react with said arsenic oxide or hydrate thereof; b. agitating and heating the resulting mixture to the reflux temperature of said mixture for a period of time sufficient to allow formation of said reaction product; and c. recovering said reaction product.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
39 words
The process of claim 1 wherein said oil-soluble sulfonic acid is diluted with from about 5 to 75 weight percent of an inert volatile solvent and said reflux temperature is in the range of about 60° to 125° C.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
24 words
The process of claim 2 wherein said inert volatile solvent is a low boiling hydrocarbon selected from the group consisting of hexane and naptha.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
27 words
The process of claim 1 wherein said reaction mixture is maintained at its reflux temperature for a period of time ranging from about 0.5 to 12 hours.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
36 words
The process of claim 4 which includes the step of admixing from about 5 to about 75 weight percent water, based on the amount of sulfonic acid employed, to said mixture prior to same being refluxed.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
40 words
The process of claim 4 which includes the step of admixing from about 50 to about 300 weight percent of a high boiling alcohol, based on the amount of sulfonic acid employed, to said mixture prior to same being refluxed.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
66 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the refluxed mixture is stripped of volatile components by heating said refluxed mixture to a temperature within the range of about 125° to 175° C. and includes the step of admixing from about 10 to 300 weight percent of a nonvolatile organic carrier component based on the amount of sulfonic acid employed, to said reflux mixture during refluxing of same.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
66 words
The process of claim 7 which includes the additional purification steps of stripping the product with an inert gas selected from the group consisting of nitrogen, carbon dioxide, air and mixtures thereof for a period of time ranging from about 0.2 to 6 hours and filtering the gas stripped product through an inert absorbent material selected from the group consisting of alumina, diatomaceous earth and pumice.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
17 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the polyamine compound has a molecular weight of at least 100.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
35 words
The process of claim 9 wherein said oil-soluble sulfonic acid was derived from an alkyl-aromatic compound which was predominantly di-n-alkylbenzenes having a molecular weight of about 420, and said nonvolatile carrier component is pale oil.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
29 words
The process of claim 10 wherein said nonvolatile carrier is diluted with a solvent selected from the group consisting of petroleum naptha, hexane, heptane, octane, benzene, toluene, and xylene.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
26 words
The process of claim 9 wherein said polyamine compound is 1,3-diaminopropane having an alkyl moiety selected from the group consisting of N-coco, N-tallow, N-soya, and N-oleyl.
