Abstract
The instant invention relates to novel hydrazine derivatives of formula III ##STR1## where R.sub.1 is hydrogen, oxyl, hydroxyl, alkyl, of 2 to 4 carbon atoms substituted by one hydroxyl group, allyl, benzyl, benzyl substituted by one of two alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms or alkanoyl of 1 to 8 carbon atoms, and X is --O-- or --NR.sub.2 -- where R.sub.2 is hydrogen or alkyl. These compounds are useful as intermediates from which to prepare the corresponding azo compounds, which are useful for the stabilization of polymers, particularly unsaturated elastomers, by being grafted thereon.
Claims2
A hydrazine derivative of formula III ##STR28## where R.sub.1 is hydrogen, oxyl, hydroxyl, alkyl of 1 to 8 carbon atoms, alkyl of 2 to 4 carbon atoms substituted by one hydroxyl group, allyl, benzyl, benzyl substituted by one or two alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms or R.sub.1 is an alkanoyl of 1 to 8 carbon atoms, and
- X is --O-- or --NR.sub.2 -- where R.sub.2 is hydrogen, alkyl of 1 to 18 carbon atoms, cycloalkyl of 5 to 12 carbon atoms, phenylalkyl of 7 to 15 carbon atoms, alkyl of 2 to 4 carbon atoms substituted by one alkoxy group of 1 to 12 carbon atoms or a group of formula II ##STR29## in which R.sub.1 is as defined above.
