Polyol esters of metathesized fatty acids and uses thereof
View Patent ↗Polyol esters of metathesized fatty acids are generally disclosed herein. Methods of using such compounds, for example, as cleaning agents, solvents, and coalescents for paints and coatings, are also disclosed.
1. A compound of formula (II):
wherein:
R 1′ is —H, —CH 2 —CH 3 , —CH 2 —CH═CH 2 , or —CH 2 —CH═CH—CH 2 —CH 3 ; and
R 2′ is selected from the group consisting of:
—CH 2 —CH 2 (—O—CH 2 —CH 2 ) w —OH,
—CH 2 —CH(—CH 3 )(—O—CH 2 —CH(—CH 3 )) y —OH,
—CH 2 —CH(—CH 3 )(—O—CH 2 —CH(—CH 3 )) z —O—R 16 ;
R 16 is independently methyl or ethyl; and
w, y, and z are independently 1, 2, or 3.
2. The compound of claim 1 , wherein R 1′ is —H.
3. The compound of claim 1 , wherein R 1′ is —CH 2 —CH 3 , —CH 2 —CH═CH 2 , or —CH 2 —CH═CH—CH 2 —CH 3 .
4. The compound of claim 3 , wherein R 1′ is —CH 2 —CH 3 .
5. The compound of claim 3 , wherein R 1′ is —CH 2 —CH═CH 2 .
6. The compound of claim 3 , wherein R 1′ is —CH 2 —CH═CH—CH 2 —CH 3 .
7. The compound of claim 1 , wherein R 2′ is —CH 2 —CH 2 (—O—CH 2 —CH 2 ) w —OH.
8. The compound of claim 7 , wherein w is 1 or 2.
9. The compound of claim 1 , wherein R 2′ is —CH 2 —CH(—CH 3 )(—O—CH 2 —CH(—CH 3 )) y —OH.
10. The compound of claim 9 , wherein y is 1 or 2.
11. The compound of claim 1 , wherein R 2′ is —CH 2 —CH(—CH 3 )(—O—CH 2 —CH(—CH 3 )) z —O—R 16 .
12. The compound of claim 11 , wherein R 16 is methyl.
13. The compound of claim 11 , wherein R 16 is ethyl.
14. The compound of claim 11 , wherein z is 1 or 2.
15. A paint or coating composition, comprising:
a film-forming polymer;
water; and
a compound of claim 1 .
