Description
Background of the Invention
The invention relates to silane derivatives of the formula I ##STR2## wherein X is H or CH.sub.3
R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 are each halogen, alkyl having up to 12 C atoms, wherein one or two non-adjacent CH.sub.2 groups can also be replaced by --O--, --CO--, --CH.dbd.CH--, --OCO-- or --COO--, a phenyl, phenylalkyl, phenoxy or phenyl-alkoxy group, wherein the phenyl group can also be substituted by halogen, alkyl and/or alkoxy and wherein the alkyl chains in each case have up to 12 C atoms, or a cycloalkyl or alkylcycloalkyl radical having 3-10 C atoms in the ring, which can be substituted by alkyl having up to 12 C atoms, and
R.sup.4 and R.sup.5
a) in each case independently of one another are H, an alkyl, naphthyl, naphthylalkyl, phenyl or phenylalkyl group, it being possible for these groups to be substituted by alkyl, cycloalkyl, halogen, cyano, amino or hydroxyl, wherein the alkyl groups have up to 12 C atoms and wherein one or two CH.sub.2 groups can optionally be substituted by --O--, --CO--, --CO--O--, --O--CO--, ##STR3## but wherein two hetero atoms are not linked to one another, or R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 together can also form an alkylene bridge having up to 7 C atoms,
b) are a cycloalkyl or alkylcycloalkyl radical having 3-10 C atoms in the ring and up to 12 C atoms in the alkyl group, or
c) are mono- or oligosacchrarides, or
--NR.sup.4 R.sup.5 is an amino acid derivative which is bonded via the nitrogen and has up to 15 C atoms in the main chain,
with the proviso that at least one of the radicals R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 is a reactive leaving group, and to a process for the preparation of these silanes and their use.
Reactive organosilanes have been used for a long time for improving and changing surfaces in industrial processes in industry and also in research. They are useful auxiliaries and reagents.
For example, the wetting properties of pigments and fillers during incorporation into plastics can be improved using reactive silane compounds.
The electrical properties and resistance of water and moisture are also increased.
Silane derivatives are thus used for hydrophobizing substrates.
The dispersibility of paints and pigments is furthermore improved by the use of silanes.
The silane derivatives must usually be adapted by means of functional groups to suit the organic plastic or adhesive into which they are to be incorporated.
A whole range of silanes having the most diverse functional groups, such as, for example, amino, mercapto, vinyl, epoxy, carboxyl, or methacrylic groups, is needed for this.
Silanes are also employed as fillers for elastomers, as adhesion promoters or adhesion intensifiers in phenolic, furan, melamine or epoxy resins or as an additive to protective agents for buildings.
The use of silanes for hydrosilylation of alkenes or alkines in the presence of heavy metal salts or alkaline catalysts has also been known for a long time and is described, for example, by J. L. Speyer et al. in J. Amer. Chem. Soc., 79 (1957) 974-979. This process is used on a large industrial scale.
Another field of use for reactive silanes is the field of chromatography materials. The silanes are employed for modifying the surface of chromatographic carrier materials. The properties of chromatographic carrier materials can in this way be modified as desired, for example conversion of a hydrophilic silica gel carrier material into a hydrophobic material, or also into a material which contains amino, diol or cyano groups. This surface modification is known to the expert from numerous literature references. Controllable modifications are also described, for example, in DE-OS 3,427,923.
A wide range of reactive silane derivatives is required to obtain an optimum separating material for any separation problem. For example, there are as yet no suitable silanizing agents for bonding amino acid derivatives to a silica gel matrix via the nitrogen end by a simple and easy route. Such materials are outstandingly suitable for separation of optically active substances.
There is also a need for new reactive silanes for the other fields of use of the silanes, in order to provide products with completely different or improved properties.

Those compounds of the formulae I and II wherein one of the radicals R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 is H are particularly preferred.
In the formulae I and II, --NR.sup.4 R.sup.5 is preferably also an amino acid derivative which is bonded via the nitrogen and has up to 15 C atoms in the main chain.

A smaller group of particularly preferred compounds of the formula II is given below: ##STR8##
The compounds of the formula II can in general be prepared by reaction of the corresponding amines or amino acid derivatives R.sup.4 R.sup.5 NH with reactive methacrylic acid or acrylic acid derivatives, preferably in the presence of a polymerization inhibitor, at temperatures between about -5.degree. C. and 60.degree. C. The reaction is advantageously carried out at room temperature using an inert organic solvent, in particular a halogenohydrocarbon, such as methylene chloride or chloroform. The reaction times are between about 30 minutes and 4 hours and essentially depend on the reaction temperature. The reaction conditions are described in many instances in the literature.
The invention also relates to the process for the preparation of the silane derivatives of the formula I. This process corresponds to the hydrosilylation, which is known per se, of alkene or alkyne compounds, but this process has as yet never been used on (meth)acrylamides as starting compounds.
Surprisingly, it has now been found that (meth)acrylamides of the formula II can be hydrosilylated with silanes of the formula III in the presence of catalysts which are known to be able to catalyze hydrosilylation reactions.
The generally known reaction conditions can be found in the literature, for example in J. Amer. Chem. Soc., 97 (1957) 974-979.
The reaction is usually carried out in inert organic solvents, in particular in halogenohydrocarbons, alcohols, ethers, hydrocarbons or aromatic hydrocarbons. The reaction is preferably carried out at temperatures between 0.degree. and 140.degree. C., particularly preferably between 20.degree. and 100.degree. C. Heavy metal salts or alkaline catalysts known from the literature form hydrosilylation reaction are added as catalysts. Possible preferred catalysts are, for example, hexachloroplatinic acid, platinum salts, such as K.sub.2 PtCl.sub.4, ruthenium salts, such as RuCl.sub.3, palladium salts, platinum/charcoal or else iridium salts. Hexachloroplatinic acid is particularly preferably employed.
The reaction times are expendiently between 30 minutes and 30 hours, preferably between 1 and 10 hours. Working up and purification is expendiently carried out by distillation or recrystallization.
If the starting molecule of the formula II contains two or more --CH.dbd.CH-- groups, such as, for example, in ethylenebisacrylamide, addition of the corresponding higher amount of silanes of the formula III gives the product hydrosilylated on all the --CH.dbd.CH-- groups.
This process, which is used according to the invention for the first time on (meth)acrylamides as starting substances, thus provides a simple method for the preparation of a large number of new reactive silane derivatives.
These silane derivatives can be used generally for all known uses of reactive silanes, which have already been described above.
The silane derivatives according to the invention are suitable above all for surface coating, and in particular also for modifying the surface of chromatographic carrier materials and for coating the surface of inorganic materials, such as, for example, inorganic oxides.
For example, using the compounds according to the invention it is also possible to obtain carrier materials which are surface-modified with amino acid derivatives and in which the amino acid derivative is coupled to the carrier via the nitrogen end. This type of bonding has the advantage over the very much more widespread coupling via the C end that standard methods of peptide chemistry can be used, for example to couple further groups to the C end. This bonding via the N end has previously been possible only via circuitous routes.
Possible chromatographic carriers here are all the commercially available materials. Carriers based on silica gel, TiO.sub.2 or Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 are particularly preferred.
The surface modification using the silane derivatives according to the invention is carried out by methods which are known from the literature.
The silane derivatives of the formula I may also be optically active. The modified carrier materials resulting from these are then outstandingly suitable for resolution of racemic mixtures to their optical antipodes.
The silane derivatives of the formula I can furthermore be used for the preparation of polysiloxanes. Generally known reaction conditions from the appropriate text-books can be chosen for this.
