LUBRICATING OIL COMPOSITION CONTAINING HETEROCYCLIC POLYAMINE SALTS OF PAR= TIAL ESTER F PHOSPHORODITHIOIC ACID AS ANTIWEAR AGENT Allen F. Millikan, Crystal Lake, and Giiford W. Crosby, River Forest, lll., assignors to The Pure Oil Company, Chicago, 111., a corporation of Ohio No Drawing. Filed Dec. 31, 1956, Ser. No. 631,516
Claims. (Cl. 252-3237) I This invention relates to lubricants and more particularly to lubricants containing small amounts of heterocyclic polyamine salts of partially esterified phosphorodithioic acids added to improve the load-carrying, antiwear and oxidation-resistance characteristics of the mineral oil.
The addition of salts of alkyl dithiophosphoric acids such as the zinc salts, to mineral oils in order to improve the wear-resistance characteristics of such oils is well known. We have discovered that if a partially esterified phosphorodithioic acid is combined with a heterocyclic polyamine to form a salt, the resulting salt has substantially better anti-wear characteristics than other types of amine or metal salts.
One of the objects of our invention is to provide a lubricating oil having improved anti-wear characteristics. Another object of our invention is to provide a lubricant having improved load-carrying, anti-wear and oxidationresistance characteristics. Other objects of the invention will become manifest from the following disclosure.
In accordance with our invention there is added to mineral lubricating oil a small amount of a salt of a heterocyclic polyamine containing at least one atom of nitrogen in the tri-coordinated state and partially esterified phosphorodithioic acid. The heterocyclic polyamines which may be used in forming the salt useful in our invention include cyclo di-, triand tetramines. As examples of heterocyclic polyamines useful in forming the partially esterified phosphorodithioate salts are tetrarnines such as hexamethylenetetramine; triamines such as the trialkylcyclotrirnethylenetriamines.
CH2 which may be prepared by reacting primary aliphatic amines and formaldehyde; piperazine and alkyl-substituted piperazines; and alkylisomelamines The partial esters of phosphorodithioic acids with which the heterocyclic polyamines are combined to form 2,973,323 Patented Feb. 28, 1961 tain 4 to 20 carbon atoms and preferably those partial esters which contain two hydrocarbon groups. These groups may contain other substituents, such as oxygen, sulfur and nitrogen in the form of hydroxyl, thiol or amino radicals. As specific examples of salts useful in our invention the following are given:
(1) Piperazine salt of 0,0-di-2-ethylhexyl phosphorodithioic acid (2) N,N-dibutylpiperazine salt of 0,0-di-(octylphenyl) phosphorodithioic acid (3) Eethylisomelamine salt of 0,0-didecyl phosphorodithioic acid (4) Hexamethylenetetramine salt of 0,0-didodecyl phosphorodithioic acid (5) Piperazine salt of S,S-didodecyl phosphorodithioic acid (6) Hexamethylenetetramine salt of 0,0-di-2-ethylbutyl phosphorodithioic acid (7) N,N-dioctylpiperazine salt of 0,0-diphenyl phosphorodithioic acid (8) Hexamethylenetetramine salt of 0,0-di(phenylpropyl) phosphorodithioic acid (9) N,N,N-trimethyltrirnethylenetriamine salt of 0,0- di-2-ethylhexyl phosphorodithioic acid.
The heterocyclic polyamine salts of partial esters of dithiophosphoric acids may be added to the lubricating oil in amounts of approximately 0.05 to 0.5% by weight phosphorus equivalent. We have found that if the amount of salt is equal to about the equivalent of 0.1 weight percent of phosphorus, a very significant improvement in anti-wear characteristics of the oil is obtained.
The above-described compounds are disclosed and claimedv as novel compounds in our copending application Serial No. 655,011, filed April 25, 1957, now Patent 2,894,951.
The polyamine salts of our invention may be added to lubricating oils together with other well-known additives, such as detergents, pour point depressants and viscosity index improvers.
The salts useful in our invention may be prepared by reacting the desired heterocyclic polyamine with the desired partially esterified phosphorodithioate. Another method of preparing heterocyclic amines falling within the scope of our invention is by reacting a partially esterified dithiophosphoric acid with an aldehyde and excess ammonia. The following are specific examples which are illustrative of the manner in which the compounds of our invention may be prepared.
EXAMPLE I To 195 grams of 2-ethylhexyl alcohol, 195 grams of toluene and 195 grams of solvent-refined neutral oil having an SUS viscosity of 85 at 100 F. there was added 83.5 grams of phosphorus pentasuliide-so that the mixture contained 1.5 mols of the alcohol to 0.38 mol of phosphorus pentasulfide. The mixture was stirred for four hours on the steam bath and the resulting acid solution then filtered and treated with 133 grams (0.94
mol) of hexamethylenetetramine at room temperature. After the mixture was allowed to react for 16 hours it was diluted with hexane and excess hexamethylenetetramine separated by filtration. A crystallized product salts include alkyl, aryl, aralkyl and alkaryl dithiophosseparated from the filtrate on chilling to a temperature of 30 F. attained a yield of Upon recrystallizing the product from hexane, a white solid was obtained having a melting point of 69-70 C. and analyzing nitrogen 10.5%, phosphorus 6.1%, sulfur 12.8%. These values are close to the calculated values of 11.3% nitro- 3 gen, 6.3% phosphorus and 13% sulfur for hexamethylenetetrammonium di-2-ethylhexyldithiophosphate.
EXAMPLE 'II Di-Z-ethylhexyl dithiophosphoric acid prepared as in the previous example was reacted with one eq ivalent of paraformaldehyde and an excess of anhydrous ammonia at room temperature for a period of one hour. The solvent (toluene) and excess ammonia was then removed by vacuum stripping in the presence of nitrogen and the liquid product was clarified by filtration through celite. Analysis of the resulting liquid product gave a ratio of nitrogen to phosphorus of 1.6, which would correspond to a mixture of hexamethylenetetramine or cyclotrimethylenetriamine salts of the partially esterified thiophosphoric acid with ammonium salts of the same acid.

In order to demonstrate the wear-resisting characteristics of compounds within the scope of our invention, solvent-refined neutral oil having an SUS viscosity of 170 at 100 F. and containing basic barium petroleum sulfohate as a detergent and sulfurized terpenes as corrosion inhibitor was tested in accordance with the Four-Ball Test briefly described on pages 13 and 14 of The Performance of Lubricating Oils, by Zuidema, published in 1952 by Reinhold Publishing Corporation, New York. The sulfurized terpene corrosion inhibitor is a product of 29.4 wt. percent sulfur which is available on the market. The basic barium sulfonate was prepared by sulfonating a mineral lubricating oil fraction with sulfur trioxide at a temperature of below 120 F. and neutralizing the resulting sulfonic acids with an excess of barium hydroxide octahydrate. This oil was tested with and without antiwear additives for purposes of comparison. The results are given in Table I.
From an examination of Table I it is apparent that the oil to which the inhibitor prepared in accordance with Example I was added improved the load at which transition to high Wear took place by over 100%. The complex salt made in accordance with Example II increased the load at which transition to high Wear occurred by almost Whereas the ammonium di-Z-ethylhexyl dithiophosphate only improved the transition point by 50%.
In order to further demonstrate the superiority of salts falling Within the scope of our invention over other types of amine or metal salts, Mid-Continent refined neutral oil having an SUS viscosity of 170 at 100 F., containing phenol extract resulting from the solvent-refining of the oil, barium alkyl phenol sulfide-calcium sulfonate detergent available on the market, and mixed alcohols-methacrylate polymer pour point depressant and viscosity index improver, also available as a commercial product, was tested with and without various dithiophosphoric acid salts in which the amount of salt added was equivalent to 0.1 weight percent of phosphorus. The results of the tests are given in Table II. Further identification of the above commercial additives is as follows. Barium and calcium contents of the detergent additive were 8.1 and 0.6 wt. percent respectively. The average molecular weight of the methacrylate polymer was in the 10,000 to 20,000 range.

From an inspection of Table II it will be seen that while amine salts and zinc salts in general increased the load point at which transition to high rate occurred, the hexamethylenetetramine salt (the only salt in Table II falling within the scope of the present invention) is superior to any of the other compounds tested and raised the loadcarrying ability of the oil by 140%.
In the foregoing examples the detergent, pour depressant and viscosity improver are not necessary ingredients of the oil insofar as the present invention is concerned but are added to the oil merely to 'give a balanced oil corresponding to one which would be used in actual commercial practice.
It will be seen, therefore, that we have found a select group of amine salts which have unusual ability in improving the anti-wear characteristics of mineral lubricating oils.
We claim as our invention:
1. A lubricant composition comprising a major portion of a mineral lubricating oil and a minor portion, sufiicient to enhance substantially the load-'carrying'properties of the oil, of at least one heterocyclic polyamine salt of a phosphorodithiotic acid ester of the formula where R is a C -C radical selected from the group consisting of alkyl, phenyl, alkylphenyl, and phenylakyl radicals, and where the hetcrocyclic polyamine is selected from the group consisting of hexamethylenetetramine, trilower alkyl cyclotrimethylene triamines, piperazine, lower alkyl-substituted piperazines, and lower alkyl isomelamines.
