Description
Patented June 11, 1935 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE TETRA ALKYL LEAD No Drawing. Application March 9, 1932, Serial No. 597,800
19 Claims. (Cl. 202-57) This invention relates to the manufacture of tetra alkyl lead compounds and more particularly to the recovery of such compounds from a mixture of reaction products.
The process in most general use, at the present time, for the manufacture of tetra alkyl lead compounds comprises reacting an alkyl halide with a lead sodium alloy, cooling the resulting lead sludge, then drowning it in water and then distilling with steam to remove the tetra alkyl lead compound. During this distillation, the particles of lead in the sludge tend to cohere and form balls and sheets which render effective agitation impractical or impossible and which cannot be flushed from the still butrequire manual removal. Furthermore, the lead sludge remaining in the still retains substantial proportions of the tetra alkyl lead which it has, heretofore, been considered to be impossible to recover by means of continued distillation.
In order to prevent this agglomeration of the metallic lead and thus overcome the many problems presented thereby, it has been proposed to add to the lead sludge, before distillation; compounds which have a dispersing action on the metallic lead and prevent the agglomeration thereof. Some of these compounds are glue, agar-agar, gums, engine oil, lard oil, toluene, and the like; and also certain inorganic salts such as sodium sulfide, sodium carbonate, sodium sulfate, and the corresponding potassium salts.
While these compounds greatly improve the condition of the sludge and render it more fit for proper working in the still, they have notbeen proved to be entirely satisfactory as they do not entirely prevent agglomeration of the lead. Furthermore, even with the use of these compounds, it has been impossible to recover all of the tetra alkyl lead, as much as 6% being retained in the sludge at the completion of the distillation.
An object of the present invention is to improve the process of producing tetra alkyl lead after.
These objects are accomplished by the following invention which comprises treating the alkyl lead sludge with a compound which efliciently and completely prevents the agglomeration of the lead in the'sludge, distilling off the major portion of the tetra alkyl lead, then adding a wetting agent to the residue in the still, and then continuing the distillation until substantially all of the tetra alkyl lead is recovered.
We have found that when engine oil and thiocarbanilide are both added to the diluted reaction mass and the resulting mass subjected to steam distillation, the metallic lead forms coarsely granular particles which do not agglomerate. These lead particles are of such a size that they can be readily washed in a stream of water to remove sodium chloride and like impurities without washing away any of the particles. The wash water will readily drain from the resulting mass of lead particles and such mass may be readily dried. Neither engine oil nor thiocarbanilide nor any of the other dispersing agents heretofore employed, when used alone, can produce such results.
Certain othei substances such as sodium chromate or dichromate, sodium thiosulfate, sodium silicates and their corresponding water soluble salts of other cations, may be employed in place of the engine oil and thiocarbanilide but without obtaining all of the advantageous features thereof.
The above dispersing agents have the disadvantage, common to all the prior dispersing agents, of failing to permit complete removal of the tetra alkyl lead compounds from the sludge, as the metallic lead particles retain substantial proportions of the tetra alkyl lead compound, up to 6% of the tetra alkyl lead formed in the reaction. However, we have found that,- by subjecting a lead sludge so produced to a distillation with steam until-the major portion of the tetra alkyl lead has been removed or until no further tetra alkyl lead appears in the distillate, then adding a wetting agent to the sludge remaining in the still and then continuing the distillation,
substantially all of the tetra alkyl lead may be recovered.
The wetting agents, which we propose to employ, include those substances which lower the surface tension of water, thereby increasing itstendency to wet metallic lead. The wetting agents, which we have found to be particularly desirable, are sulfonated castor oils known as Turkey red oil and monopole oil and other sulfonated natural oils. Other wetting agents, which may be employed but which are less desirable because of certain problems attendant upon the use thereof, include .thasalts of alkyl naphthalene sulfonic acids; the condensation products of naphthol sulfonic acids and formaldehyde; the reaction products of oleic acid and the aliphatic diamines; the higher fatty and unsaturated acids and their soaps including both the inorganic cations, such as sodium and potassium' stearates, and the organic soaps, such as triethanolamine stearate and oleate; the reslnates; and certain commercial products.
In order to more clearly disclose our invention and to illustrate the preferred method of carrying the same into effect, the following examples are given:
Example 1'.-Ethyl chloride is caused to react with a lead sodium alloy in an autoclave. After the reaction is complete, any pressure in the autoclave is released and the sludge is drowned in water to which has beenadded thiocarbanilide equal in weight to from 0.01 to 5% of the total weight of the lead in the charge and engine oil equal in weight to from 0.01 to 5% of the total weight of the lead in the charge. The tetra ethyl lead is then removed by steam distillation from the agitated mass.
Example 2.-The process, as disclosed in Example 1, is employed and the distillation is continued for some time, e. g. 90 minutes, at which time the distillation appears to be substantially complete as substantially no further tetra ethyl lead passes ofi into the distillate. At the end of this time, from 0.01 to 5% of Turkey red oil is added .to the still and the distillation with steam continued. Within a short time, substantially all of the tetra ethyl lead is removed from the lead sludge.
- In the above description, we have specifically disclosed the use of from about 0.01 to 5% of each of the agents. However, we-have found that from about 0.1 to 1% thereof is preferred, under ordinary conditions. By the use of the wetting agent as described in Example 2, the recovery of the tetra ethyl lead is increased from about 1 to 6%.
While we have disclosed certain specific processes employing certain agents inspecific proportions, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that many changes and Variations'may be made therein without departing from the spirit of our invention. Accordingly, the scope of our invention 'is to'be limited solely by the appended claims construed as broadly as is permissible in view oi the prior art.
