Carbon Disulfide → HCID 21703348, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

The triethylammonium salt of N,N-di-2-ethylhexyldithiocarbamic acid was prepared by reacting di-2-ethylhexylamine and carbon disulfide in the presence of triethylamine in toluene. This is a reaction well known to those skilled in the art. To 0.5 moles of this salt there was added drop-wise 0.25 moles of the nonylphenyl phosphorodichloridite compound prepared in Example 1 dissolved in 250 milliliters of toluene. An exothermic reaction resulted. After the exothermic reaction had subsided, the reaction mixture was stirred and heated at 50° to 60° C. for six hours. It was then cooled and filtered. The filtrate was washed with water, dried over magnesium sulfate, and stripped of solvent. The yield was 210 grams (a 95% yield) of a clear light brown reaction product.
