Abstract
Abstract Epithio compounds or mercaptans of the formula I ##STR1## wherein X is an oxygen or sulfur atom, --CH 2 --, --CH(R 1 )--, --COO--, --NH-- or --NR 1 --, each of Y and Z is hydrogen or together they are a direct bond, Q is hydrogen if Y and Z together are a direct bond, or is --OH, --SH, --OR 1 , --SR 1 , --OOCR 1 , --S--CH 2 ) n OH, --S--CH 2 ) n COOR 1 , --NHR 1 or --N(R 1 ) 2 , n is an integer from 1 to 10, each of R and R 1 independently is a cyclic or acyclic hydrocarbon radical of aliphatic or aromatic character containing 4 to 30 carbon atoms which can be interrupted by oxygen or sulfur, with the proviso that the groups R and R 1 contain a total number of 8 to 30 carbon atoms. These compounds have excellent suitability for use as additives for lubricants, especially as extreme pressure and antiwear additives.
