Process for the production of oil soluble amine complexes and compositions containing such complexes

Claim 1

A PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF OIL-SOLUBLE AMINE COMPLEXES OF METAL SALTS OF SUBSTITUTED DITHIOCARBAMIC ACIDS HAVING AT LEAST TWENTY CARBON ATOMS IN THE COMPLEX MOLECULE WHICH COMPRISES ADDING TO A LIQUID OLEAGINOUS REACTION MEDIUM WHICH IS SUBSTANTIALLY INERT UNDER THE CONDITIONS OF THE REACTION A SECONDARY AMINE, CARBON DISULFIDE, AND ONE OF THE GROUP CONSISTING OF METAL OXIDES AND HYDROXIDES, SAID SECONDARY AMINE BEING ADDED IN QUANTITY SUFFICIENT TO REACT NOT ONLY WITH THE CARBON DISULFIDE AND THE INORGANIC BASE IN THE FORMATION OF THE METAL SALT OF THE CORRESPONDING SUBSTITUTED DITHIOCARBAMIC ACID BUT ALSO WITH THE METAL SALT TO FORM THE CORRESPONDING AMINE COMPLEX OF SAID SALT, SAID OXIDES AND HYDROXIDES BEING FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF THE OXIDES AND HYDROXIDES OF COPPER, SILVER, CALCIUM, STRONTIUM, BARIUM, ZINC, CADMIUM, MERCURY, LEAD, HEXAVALENT CHROMIUM, HEXAVALENT MOLYBDENUM, IRON, COBALT, NICKEL, TETRAVALENT SELENIUM AND TETRAVALENT TELLURIUM, AND SAID SECONDARY AMINE HAVING THE FORMULA.
