Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to cyclic pyrophosphate derivatives, their process of preparation, a dental filling material composed of the same, and a dental filling technique making use of this material.
2. Description of the Prior Art
Many kinds of dental cements have been applied as dental filling materials. Recently, some monomers of methacrylate, as the resin-based filling material, have been given attention as well. One of the well-known monomers is a compound of the following formula (glycidyl methacrylate derivative of bisphenol A; Bis-GMA): ##STR2## which is disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,066,112 and 3,179,623. To this monomer are added the proper reactive diluents, such as methyl methacrylate, ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate, triethyleneglycol dimethacrylate or tetraethyleneglycol dimethacrylate, making the mixture less viscous and thereby suitable for practical use. For filling cavities of teeth, tert.-amines and peroxides are added to the mixture, which is then cured to serve as an excellent restorative material of higher mechanical properties.
The handling characteristics of this material are not very good, since Bis-GMA is extremely viscous absent a large quantity of diluent and sometimes tends to absorb undesirable amounts of water which causes trouble in that a less cured resin is obtained which has lower mechanical strength. Also, as a fundamental problem, the hardening time between gelatination and complete hardening is too long and patients are greatly discomfited waiting until the resin is completely cured.
Additionally, since the diluents described above are low molecular weight monomers which penetrate into pulpal tissues, they irritate the patient, and it would be desirable to reduce the amount of diluent as much as possible.
A need therefore continues to exist for a resin monomer which overcomes the above-mentioned difficulties and which can be completely polymerized in a short period of time without the necessity of adding low molecular weight diluents.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Accordingly, one object of the invention is to provide a resin monomer suitable for use in a dental filling material.
Another object of the invention is to provide an effective procedure for synthesis of the monomer.
Another object of the invention is to provide a dental filling material composed of this monomer.
A further object of the invention is to provide a dental technique for filling cavities with this material.
Briefly, these objects and other objects of the invention as hereinafter will become more readily apparent can be attained by providing cyclic pyrophosphate derivatives, which are polymerizable monomers, of the formula: ##STR3## wherein A represents a direct bond between the two phenyl rings, thereby forming a biphenyl ring, or a divalent moiety selected from the group consisting of lower alkylene, aryl substituted lower alkylene, cycloalkylidene, sulfonyl and oxy;
R.sup.1 represents allyl, acryloyloxy lower alkyl or methacryloyloxy lower alkyl, in which the lower alkyl can be substituted by halogen atoms; and
R.sup.2 represents independently hydrogen, halogen, lower alkyl or lower alkoxy.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
The compounds of this invention, as shown in Formula (I), can be prepared by the following reaction scheme, wherein A, R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 have the same meanings as set forth above, and X is halogen. ##STR4##
The reaction mechanism in the formation of the compounds of this invention (I) from compound (IV) is though to proceed via the formation of an intermediate (V), which is formed by hydrolysis of a portion of the compound (IV); the intermediate (V) then reacting with the unhydrolyzed compound (IV) in the presence of the base (a dehydrohalogenating agent) to produce the compound (I) of this invention. A description of the mechanism is as follows, wherein A, R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and X have the same meanings as set forth above. ##STR5##
According to the present invention, A may represent a direct bond between the two phenyl rings, thereby forming a biphenyl ring, or a divalent moiety selected from the group consisting of lower alkylene, aryl substituted lower alkylene, cycloalkylidene, sulfonyl and oxy.
The lower alkylene moiety includes those members having one to six carbon atoms, such as methylene, ethylene, trimethylene, propylene, dimethyl methylene, tetramethylene, ethylethylene, 2-methyl trimethylene, pentamethylene, 2-ethyl trimethylene, 2,2-dimethyl trimethylene, 1,3-dimethyl trimethylene, 1-ethyl trimethylene and hexamethylene.
The aryl substituted lower alkylene moiety includes the lower alkylene, as described above, which have been substituted with phenyl, .alpha.-naphthyl, .beta.-naphthyl or anthranyl groups. The number of aryl substituents is not critical, being limited only by the number of available sites for substitution and well-known steric hindrances.
The aryl group may be unsubstituted or substituted by lower alkyl, lower alkoxy and halogen. Suitable lower alkyl groups include those containing one to six carbon atoms, such as methyl, ethyl, propyl, iso-propyl, butyl, tert-butyl, pentyl and hexyl. Suitable lower alkoxy groups include those containing one to six carbon atoms, such as methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy, iso-propoxy, butoxy, tert-butoxy, pentyloxy, and hexyloxy. Suitable halogen atoms include fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine.
The cycloalkylidene moiety includes cyclopentylidene and cyclohexylidene.
The group R.sup.1 represents allyl, acryloyloxy lower alkyl and methacryloyloxy lower alkyl, wherein the vinyl group present in these moieties is the cause of the polymerizability of compound (I). The lower alkyl group in R.sup.1 is the same as described above and, furthermore, may be substituted by halogen, such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine.
The group R.sup.2, which is substituted at an arbitrary position of the phenyl ring, represents independently hydrogen, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy and halogen. The lower alkyl, lower alkoxy and halogen are the same as described above.
According to the present, the compounds (I) may be prepared by the following reaction sequence, which has been schematically illustrated above:
Compound (II).fwdarw.Compound (III)
Under anhydrous conditions, compound (II) is reacted with a phosphoryl halide, which serves as both a reagent and solvent. Other solvents may be present, provided they are inert under the conditions of the reaction. The reaction temperature is not critical, however, reflux or heating can be used to ensure better completion of the reaction.
Compound (III).fwdarw.Compound (IV)
Under anhydrous conditions, the alcohol R.sup.1 OH (R.sup.1 being defined as above) is reacted with compound (III). The reaction is preferably carried out in the presence of a solvent which does not hinder the reaction, such as methylene chloride or chloroform. The reaction temperature is not critical, however, due to its exothermic nature, cooling or operation at room temperature is recommended.
Compound (IV).fwdarw.Compound (I)
This reaction involves the intermediate (V) and a sequential hydrolysis followed by dehydrohalogenation-condensation. For hydrolysis, water may merely be added to the reaction mixture, the reaction temperature not being critical. Dehydrohalogenation-condensation occurs in the presence of an organic or inorganic base, which is added to the reaction mixture while hydrolysis is proceeding. The hydrolyzed compound (IV) (intermediate (V)) reacting with the remaining unhydrolyzed comound (IV) to give compound (I). The nature of the added base is not critical, but, tert-amines, such as trialkyl amine or pyridine, are preferred as the organic base, and weak bases, such as carbonate, are preferred as the inorganic base.
Compound (I) obtained by the above-defined procedure is a polymerizable monomer by virtue of the vinyl group which can undergo addition polymerization. Polymerization can be effected by means of light, heat or ultraviolet lamp, as well as by the addition of an initiator and an accelerator. Peroxides, such as benzoic peroxide, can be utilized as the initiator, while amines can be used as the accelerator. No criticality resides in the selection of peroxides or amines, however, in regard to the use of compound (I) in a dental filling material, care should be taken to assure non-toxicity and rapid curing times.
Though compound (I), per se, can be used as a dental filling material, conventional organic or inorganic fillers can be combined with compound (I) to produce compositions of higher strength. Additionally, being less viscous, less diluent, i.e. conventional reactive diluent, if so desired, can be used in formulating dental filling compositions, thereby lessening the irritation of pulpal tissues. Hardening time is also remarkably decreased so as to cause much less patient discomfiture.
Compound (I), after curing, gives a resin possessing excellent physical properties, such as compressive strength, hardness and anti-abrasion properties, suitable for industrial application as well as in dental filling materials.
Having generally described this invention, a further understanding can be obtained by reference to certain specific examples which are provided herein for purposes of illustration only and are not intended to be limiting unless otherwise specified.

The pyrophosphate (70 wt%) which was prepared by the procedure in Example 1 was combined with ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (30 wt%) to obtain the resin binder. The binder (20 wt%) and the silane coupled quartz powder 80 wt%) were mixed well to provide a paste.
The paste was divided into two parts, one of which was mixed with 0.6 wt% of N,N'-dimethyl-p-toluidine to give a uniform dispersion, and to the other was added 0.8 wt% of benzoyl peroxide. Equal amounts of the two dispersions were mixed and scoured to provide the composite resin. The handling characters and physical properties were examined.
The results are shown in the following table:
