Abstract
3-Hydroxy-5-phosphono-1,2-oxaphospholanes can be synthesized from .beta.-dicarbonyl compounds by reaction with 2 moles of an diorganophosphite. The products are usable as flameproofing agents for plastics, particularly for polyurethanes and epoxide resins which are able to react with the hydroxyl group of the oxaphospholanes.
Claims11
A flameproofed composition comprising a polymer selected from the group consisting of a polyurethane and an epoxide resin and from 2 to 30 percent by weight of the polymer of a compound of the formula I ##STR3## wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 each independently represent alkyl having 1 - 4 carbon atoms, cyclohexyl, aralkyl having 7 or 8 carbon atoms, alkoxyalkyl having 3-6 carbon atoms, halogenoalkyl having 2-3 carbon atoms, or alkenyl having 3-5 carbon atoms, R.sub.3 is identical to R.sub.1 or R.sub.2, R.sub.4 is alkyl having 1-4 carbon atoms, or phenyl, R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 each independently represent hydrogen or alkyl having 1-4 carbon atoms, and R.sub.7 represents hydrogen, alkyl having 1-4 carbon atoms, alkoxy having 1-4 carbon atoms, or phenyl.
A compound of the formula I ##STR4## wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 each independently represent methyl, propyl, butyl, cyclohexyl, aralkyl having 7 or 8 carbon atoms, alkoxyalkyl having 3 - 6 carbon atoms, halogenoalkyl having 2 - 3 carbon atoms, or alkenyl havig 3 - 5 carbon atoms,
- R.sub.3 is identical to R.sub.1 or R.sub.2,
- R.sub.4 is alkyl having 1 - 4 carbon atoms, or phenyl,
- R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 each independently represent hydrogen or alkyl having 1 - 4 carbon atoms, and
- R.sub.7 represents hydrogen, alkyl having 1 - 4 carbon atoms, alkoxy having 1 - 4 carbon atoms, or phenyl.
