Blocked isocyanate diols and preparation thereof

Claim 2

A blocked isocyanate diol consisting of an organic diisocyanate containing one isocyanate group which has been reacted with a blocking agent containing a hydroxyl group, and a second isocyanate group which has been reacted with the amine portion of an amine diol of one of the general formulae: NH(DOH).sub.2 or NHRD'(OH).sub.2 wherein D is an alkylene (C 2 -C 20 ) or aralkylene (C 7 -C 20 ) radical in which the hydroxyl group is attached to an aliphatic carbon atom, D' is an alkylene (C 2 -C 20 ) or aralkylene (C 8 -C 20 ) radical in which each of the hydroxyl groups is attached to a different aliphatic carbon atom, and R is hydrogen or an unsubstituted or substituted alkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, aryl, alkaryl, or aralkyl radical which is not reactive with active hydrogen atoms or isocyanate groups.

Claim 3

Claim 1 wherein said blocking agent is methyl ethyl ketoxime.

Claim 4

Claim 1 wherein said amine diol is selected from the group consisting of diethanolamine, diisopropanolamine, 2-amino-2-methyl-1,3-propanediol, and 2-amino-2-ethyl-1,3-propanediol, and wherein said organic diisocyanate is toluene diisocyanate or isophorone diisocyanate.

Claim 5

claim 1 wherein said blocking agent is t-butyl alcohol or phenol.

Claim 6

A process for preparing a blocked isocyanate diol comprising the steps of: a. reacting a blocking agent which contains a hydroxyl group with an organic diisocyanate at a temperature of 25°-100° C. for 1-8 hours for aromatic diisocyanates and at 50°-120° C. for 3-10 hours for aliphatic diisocyanates, wherein the ratio of blocking agent to diisocyanate is from 0.8:1.0 to 1.2:1.0, to obtain a blocked adduct; b. reacting the blocked adduct with an amine diol of one of the general formulae: NH(DOH).sub.2 or NHRD'(OH).sub.2 wherein D is an alkylene (C 2 -C 20 ) or aralkylene (C 7 -C 20 ) radical in which the hydroxyl group is attached to an aliphatic carbon atom, D' is an alkylene (C 2 -C 20 ) or aralkylene (C 8 -C 20 ) radical in which each of the hydroxyl groups is attached to a different aliphatic carbon atom, and R is hydrogen or an unsubstituted or substituted alkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl aryl, alkaryl, or aralkyl radical which is not reactive with active hydrogen atoms or isocyanate groups, wherein the ratio of blocked adduct to amine diol is from 0.8:1.0 to 1.1:1.0, said reaction being carried out at a temperature of 0°-100° C. for 1-8 hours under anhydrous conditions; and c. isolating the resultant product.

Claim 7

A process for preparing a blocked isocyanate diol comprising the steps of: a. reacting a blocking agent which contains a hydroxyl group with an organic diisocyanate at a temperature of 25°-100° C. for 1-8 hours for aromatic diisocyanates and at 50°-120° C. for 3-10 hours for aliphatic diisocyanates, wherein the ratio of blocking agent to diisocyanate is from 0.8:1.0 to 1.2:1.0, to obtain a blocked adduct; b. reacting the blocked adduct with an amine diol of one of the general formulae: NH(DOH).sub.2 or NHRD'(OH).sub.2 wherein D is an alkylene (C 2 -C 20 ) or aralkylene (C 7 -C 20 ) radical in which the hydroxyl group is attached to an aliphatic carbon atom, D' is an alkylene (C 2 -C 20 ) or aralkylene (C 8 -C 20 ) radical in which each of the hydroxyl groups is attached to a different aliphatic carbon atom, and R is hydrogen or an unsubstituted or substituted alkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl aryl, alkaryl, or aralkyl radical which is not reactive with active hydrogen atoms or isocyanate groups, wherein the ratio of blocked adduct to amine diol is from 0.8:1.0 to 1.1:1.0, said reaction being carried out at a temperature of 0°-100° C. for 1-8 hours under anhydrous conditions; and c. isolating the resultant product.

Claim 8

claim 5 wherein said organic diisocyanate is aromatic and step (a) is carried out at 35°-60° C. for 1.5-5 hours.

Claim 9

claim 6 wherein said organic diisocyanate is aliphatic and step (a) is carried out at 80°-100° C. for 5-7 hours.
