Salts and resinoids of 1:4 organoarsonate molybdenum polyoxoanions and process of making

Abstract

Tetraalkylammonium salts of 1:4 organoarsonate molybdenum polyoxoanions and resinoid products thereof. The salts have the formula [R.sub.4 N].sub.2 {[R.sup.1 As(OH)O.sub.2 ]Mo.sub.4 O.sub.13 H} where R is an alkyl group having from one to about 18 carbon atoms and R.sup.1 is an aryl group having the formula ##STR1## where G is selected from the group consisting of --NH.sub.2, --NH(CH.sub.3), --N(CH.sub.3).sub.2, --OH, --OCH.sub.3 and --H and at least one G is --NH.sub.2 to form 3-, 4-, 3,4-, 3,5- or 3,4,5-substituted aryl-arsonic acids. The resinoids comprise from about 7 to 17 parts by weight of the salt and from about 1 to 3 parts by weight of a dicarboxylic acid halide having the formula ##STR2## where R.sup.2 is selected from the group consisting of all organic radicals and X is Cl or Br. Processes for the preparation of the salts and resinoids are provided as is a method for the treatment of steel surfaces with the resinoids.
