Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION



[0001] This application claims the benefits of the Taiwan Patent Application Serial Numbers 107119280 and 108109341, respectively filed on June 5, 2018 and March 19, 2019, the subject matter of which is incorporated herein by reference.

BACKGROUND


1. Field



[0002] The present disclosure provides a novel benzotriazole UV absorber with red shift and a use thereof. More specifically, the present disclosure provides a novel benzotriazole UV absorber having excellent UV absorption capacity and a composition, a glasses lens and a screen protector containing the same.

2. Description of Related Art



[0003] The UV absorber is a light stabilizer, which can absorb the UV light in the sunlight or in the fluorescent light source to protect the substance added with the UV absorber against the damage from the UV light. Alternatively, when a coating layer containing the UV absorber is formed on a substrate, the coating layer can also protect the substrate against the damage from the UV light.

[0004] Nowadays, the known UV absorbers can be mainly classified into benzotriazole UV absorbers, salicylate UV absorbers, benzophenone UV absorbers, substituted acrylonitrile UV absorbers, triazine UV absorbers and hindered amines UV absorbers. Among these UV absorbers, the benzotriazole UV absorbers are UV absorbers with high stability, which can effectively protect the substance or the substrate containing the benzotriazole UV absorbers against the damage caused by the UV light.

[0005] However, the commercially available benzotriazole UV absorbers still have their absorption limit, which is about 400 nm. Thus, it is desirable to provide a novel benzotriazole UV absorber, wherein the absorption spectrum thereof has red shift; therefore, the application of the benzotriazole UV absorber can be extended.

Synthesis of raw material Compound (1a)



[0031] 



[0032] 856.8 g of tertiary butylhydroquinone was dissolved in 2.5 L of methanol, followed by adding 206.2 g of NaOH, 1L of water, 482.3 g of chloropropanol and 6.3 g of KI. The mixture was heated at a reflux temperature and under N2 atomosphere for 48 hr. After the mixture was cooled down to room temperature, 5.6 L of water was added to dilute the mixture. The diluted mixture was extracted with 4 L of dichloromethane, and the combined dichloromethane layer was washed with water, dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated. The residue was distilled under reduced pressure, and the distillate was further purified by recrystallization with toluene to obtain 396.0 g of white solids (mp = 78.5-80.5°C).

Synthesis of Compound (1b)



[0033] 




Step (a)



[0034] 90.6 g of 4-chloro-2-nitroaniline and 180 mL concentrated HCl was stirred at room temperature for 1 hr, followed by dilluting with 160 mL of water and 300 g of ice. At -5°C, 37.7 g of NaNO2 (dissolved in 140 mL of water) was added dropwisely into the mixture, followed by stirring at 0°C for 1 hr. Sulfamic acid was added into the mixture until the result of the potassium iodide-starch test indicated negative. Then, the mixture was filtered, and the filtrate was added dropwisely into a mixing solution containng 112.2 g of Compound (1a), 60 g of NaOH and 2 L of water at -5°C to 0°C. After adding about 1/3 of an diazonium solution, 400 mL of NaOH solution (10%) was added dropwisely and together with the diazonium solution into the reaction mixture, and the addings of the diazonium solution and the NaOH solution were finished at the same time. During the dropwise adding step, the temperature of the reaction mixture was kept below 0°C. After the dropwise adding was finished, the reaction mixture was kept at the same temperature and stirred for 2 hr, and then the temperature of the reaction mixture was back to room temperature. The azo dye was separated by acidification with HCl, followed by filtration and washing with water. The azo dye was directly used in the next step without purification.

Step (b)



[0035] The azo dye obtained in the step (a) was dissolved in 1.5 L of ethanol. A glucose solution (180 g of glucose dissolved in 1.5 L of NaOH aqueous solution (2N)) was added slowly into the reaction solution, and the temperature of the reaction solution was kept below 30°C. A thin layer chromotagraphy was held to trace the reaction until the reaction was completed. Next, 165 g of active zinc powder was added. After the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 hr, the mixture was dilluted with 1 L of water and stirred for 15 hr. After standing for 1 hr, the mixture was filtered, and the obtained precipitate was washed with water. The filtration cake was then extrated with 2 L of hot ethanol until only zinc was remained in the filtration cake. The extract was cooled down to room temperature, and the solid was filtered out and washed with cold ethanol. After vaccum drying, 67.8 g of yellow solids were obtained (mp = 134.7°C).

Testing Example 1: Comparisons of UV absorption spectra



[0077] The benzotriazole compounds of Examples 1 to 9 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3 and the UV absorbers of Comparative Examples 4 and 5 were formulated into 20 ppm solution (methanol:THF=90:10). Then, the absorbance of the solutions were measured with an UV-visible spectrophotometer (UV-2600; Shimadzu Instruments Co., Ltd.), and the results are listed in the following Table 1, wherein the maximum absorption wavelength (λmax) is the absorption wavelength of the absorption peak (nm) in the long-wavelength region, and the effective absorption limit is the absorption wavelength (nm) that the absorbance is 0.05.

Comparative Example 4 566.7 18.3 7.8 3.4 371 420
Comparative Example 5 315.8 51.0 4.2 0 349 399


[0078] From the results shown in Table 1, the effective absorption limits of the compounds of Examples 1 to 9 can reach to 420 nm and have broader absorption ranges, and the compounds of Examples 1 to 9 have the absorption peaks that the commercial UV absorbers have in the region with wavelengths from 290 nm to 340 nm. In addition, the effective absorption limit of the compound of Example 9 can be farthest extended to 500 nm or more. Compared to the compound of Comparative Example 5, the compounds of Comparative Examples 1 to 3 with the O-containing group on the phenyl ring or the S-containing group on the benzo ring have slight red shift on the absorption spectra thereof. However, there is no collaboration between the O-containing group on the phenyl ring and the S-containing group on the benzo ring, so the maximum absorption wavelengths of the compounds of Comparative Examples 1 to 3 are less than the maximum absorption wavelengths of the compounds of Examples 1 to 9.

Texting Example 2: Transmittance test



[0079] 0.2 g of the benzotriazole UV absorbers prepared by Exmaples 1 and 2 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3 and the UV absorbers of Comparative Example 5 were respectively dissolved in 10 g of a mixing solvent (ethylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate:toluene:n-butyl acetate:ethyl acetate=20:50:20:10, which was prepared by the weight ratio). Transparent solutions containing UV absorbers were obtained after stirring at room temperature. 20 g of polyurethane (product model: A-7121) as a main component and 10 g of hardener (product model: Bayer N75) were mixed in advance, followed by stirring at room temperature to obtain a two-component polyurethane varnish (2K PU). The aforsaid transparent solutions were respectively added into the 2K PU varnish. After stirring at room temperature, transparent varnishes containing UV absorbers were obtained.

[0080] Glass substrates were placed on a coating machine (KCC101; RK Print-Coat Instruments Ltd.), and the aforesaid transparent varnished were applied onto surfaces of the glass substrates with spreading rods (Rod type #18) to form wet films having thicknesses of about 40 µm. After drying at room temperature for 8 hr, glass substrates coated with transparent coating layers containing benzotriazole UV absorbers were obtained. Next, an UV-visible spectrophotometer (UV-2600; Shimadzu Instruments Co., Ltd.) was used to measure the transmittance (T%) of the obtained glass substrates. The results are listed in the following Table 2, in which light cut-off wavelength (transmittance = 99%) and the transmittance measured at 420 nm were listed.

Comparative Example 3 421.5 422 94%
Comparative Example 5 315.8 404 100%
Blank - - 100%


[0081] From the results shown in Table 2, the transmittances of the compounds of Examples 1 and 2 at 420 nm were much less than the transmittances of the compounds of Comparative Examples 1 to 3. These results indicate that the abosrption of the compounds of Examples 1 and 2 have red shift.

[0082] In conclusion, the absorption spectrum of the novel compound provided by the present disclosure shows red shift. When the novel compound of the present disclosure is applied to a substrate sensitive to an electro-magnetic radiation having wavelengths greater than 380 nm to form a coating layer, the coating layer can effectively absorb the light having wavelength greater than 380 nm. Hence, the novel compound provided by the present disclosure can be used to form a blue light blocking coating layer or an anti-UV coating layer, to provide a product having blue light blocking effect or anti-UV effect such as a glasses lens or a screen protector.

[0083] Although the present disclosure has been explained in relation to its preferred embodiment, it is to be understood that many other possible modifications and variations can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the disclosure as hereinafter claimed.
