Abstract

Abstract of the Disclosure The compounds according to the invention have the formula Ia or Ib (Ia) or (Ib) in which R is a divalent organic radical. The novel bis-azidophthalic acid derivatives are suitable for the pro-duction of photo-curable mixtures. The novel compounds, and their mixtures, have better heat stability and oxidation resistance than known systems, whilst retaining equally good photosensitivity.
Two different methods of preparation of the com-pounds are described.

The present inven-tion relates to novel bis-azido-phthalic acid derivatives and to processes for their pre-paration The bis-azidophthalic acid derivatives according to -the invention can be used to produce photo-curable (photo-crosslinkable) mixtures The literature discloses that azidophenyl deriva-tives, such as 4,4'-diazidostil~ene, disodium 4,4'-diaæidostilbene-2j2' disulphonic acid, 4,4'-diazidobenzo-phenone, 4,4'-diazidochalcone, 2,6-di-(4'~azidobenzal)~
cyclohexanone, 2,6 di-(4'-azidobenzal)-4-methylcyclohexan-one, 4,4'-diazidobenzalacetone and bis-(4'-azidocinnamyl-idene)-cyclopentanone can be used as sensitisers for poly-mers for phototechnical purposes, for example in so-called photoresists, or as photosensitive components in colloid layers, such as gelatin or casein, for the production of so-called tanned images in photography, or in reprographic processes (c.f., for example, U.S. Patent Specifications

R being as de~ined under ~ormula Ia or Ib, and, if desired, subsequently cyclising the compound of the ~ormula Ia.
The reaction of the anhydride of the formula II
with the diamine of the ~ormula III is advantageously carried out in an organic medium, at temperatures between about 0C and 120C depending on the nature of the re-actants.
Advantageously, the anhydride o~ the ormula II
is employed in stoichiometric amount or in slight excess over the diamine of the formula III, for example in up to about 20% molar excess.
Suitable organic solvents are, in par~icular, .

aprotic solvents Examples of suitable aprotic orgar~c sol-vents are aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbons which may or may not be chlorinated, such as benzene, toluene, methyl-ene chloride, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, 1,1,~-trichloroethane, 1,2-dichloroethylene and chlorobenzene;
aliphatic and cycloalipha-tic ke-tones, such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, cyclopentanone and cyclohexanone;
cyclic ethers, such as tetrahydrofuran, tetrahydropyran and dioxane; cyclic amides, such as N-methyl-2-pyrroli-done, N-acetyl~2-pyrrolidone and N-methyl-~-caprolac-tam;
N,N-dialkylamides of aliphatic monocarboxylic acids having 1-3 C atoms in the acid moiety, such as N,N-dimethyl-formamide, N,N~dimethylacetamide, N,N-diethylamide and N,N-dimethylmethoxyacetamide; alkyl esters of aliphatic mono-carboxylic acids, having a total of 2-6 carbon atoms, such as methyl, ethyl and n-butyl formate or acetate; hexa-methylphosphoric acid triamide (hexametapol); N,N,N',N'-tetrame-thylurea; tetrahydrothiophene dioxide (sulpholan);
and dialkylsulphoxides, such as dimethylsulphoxide or diethylsulphoxide. Mixtures of such solvents can also be employed.
The cyclisation of the compounds of the formula Ia can be carried out in a manner known per se, by chemical means,i.e. with addition of dehydrating agents known per se. Depending on the nature of the reactants, the re-action conditions and the solvent employed, the cyclisation can, especially at elevated temperatures, also be carried out without adding a dehydrating agent, the water formed advantageously being removed azeotropically.
The cyclisation is in general carried out at temperatures be-tween about 40 and 120C, preferably at 70-90C, in the presence of a dehydrating agent and in -the presence or absence o~ an aprotic organic solven-t.
Suitable dehydrating agents are, in particular, anhydrides of aliphatic monocarboxylic acids, having ~-5 C a-toms, which are unsubstitu-ted or substituted by halogen atoms or alkyl group,s, such as acetic anhydride, propionic anhydride, .

butyric anhydride, valeric anhydrlde, trichloroacetic anhydride and trlmethylacetic anhydride, The pre-~erred dehydrating agent is acetic anhydride, According to a preferredprocess, the compoun~s of the formula Ib can also be prepared directly, in a par-ticularly simple manner, by reacting a compound of the formula IV

~ R - N \ ~ (IV) Ql Ql in which R is as defined under formula Ia or Ib and Ql is a halogen atom, such as chlorine, fluorine or bromine, or is a nitro group, in an inert organic solvent, at a temperature between about 0 and 120C, preferably between about 70 and 100C, with an azide of the formula V
Mnl+ (N3 )n~ ~V) in which n is 1 or 2 and Ml is an alkali metal cation, alkaline earth metal cation or quaternary ammonium cation.
The literature [Tetrahedron Letters, 12, 1305 -1309 (1966)] discloses that 3-nitrophthalic anhydride can be converted to 3-azidophthalic anhydride by means of sodium azide in the presence of an inert organic solvent at a temperature of 110C, However, 4-nitrophthalic anhydride and 3-chlorophthalic anhydride cannot be con-verted to the corresponding azide by this method, It is therefore surprising that, according to the invention, both the bis-(3-nitrophthalimides) and the bis-(4-nitro-phthalimides) of the formula IV, and the corresponding 3-and 4-halogen compounds can be converted to the corres-ponding azides with good to very good yields and in some cases even at lower temperatures, A prior expensive , , ,.. . . , . , , , . . ~,.. ..
--separa-tion of the starting rna-terials into the 3- and 4-isomers is therefore not necessary in the process accord-ing to the invention.
Preferably, Q1 is the nitro group A quaternary ammonium cation Ml is, for exarnple, a tetraalkylammonium cation or benzyltrialkyla~monium cation with each alkyl moiety having 1-12 and especially-1-4 C atoms~in partiaular the te-tramethylamtnonium cation and the trimethylbenzylammonium cation.
~ xamples of suitable alkali metal azides and alkaline earth metal azides are lithium, sodium, potass-ium, calcium, magnesium and barium azide. . The use of alkali metal azides, in particular of sodium azide, is preferred.
The azide of the formula V is advantageously em-ployed in excess, for example in a molar excess o~ about 5-50% and preferably of about 10-30%.
Sui-table inert organic solvents are, in particular, polar solvents, for exarnple lower aliphatic alcohols, for instance those having upto 6 C atoms, such as methanl, ethanol, propanol, isopropanol, butanols and pentanols;
dibenzyl ethers and dialkyl ethers with each alkyl moi-ety having 1-4 C atoms, such as diethyl ether, di-n-propyl ether and di-isopropyl ether; cyclic ethers, such as tetrahydrofuran, tetrahydropyran and dioxane; diethylene glycol dialkyl ethers and triethylene glycol dialkyl ethers with each alkyl moiety having 1-4 C atoms, such as diethylene glycol diethyl ether and di-n-butyl ether, and triethylene glycol dimethyl ether; aliphatic and aromatic nitriles, such as alkylnitriles having 2-5 C atoms in the alkyl moiety, for example acetonitrile, propionitrile, butyronitrile and benzonitrile; and also aprotic polar organic solvents of the abovementioned type, such as cyclic amides, N,N-dialkylamides of aliphatic monocarboxylic acids having 1-3 C atoms in the acid moiety, dialkylsulphoxides, hexame-thylphosphoric acid triamide (hexametapol) and -tetra-hydrothiophene dioxide (sulpholan) , . :, . , .
~, _ g~
Mixtures of such solvents can also be used Preferred solvents are dialkylsulphoxides, es-pecially dimethylsulphoxide, and N,N dialkylarnides of aliphatic monocarboxylic acids having 1-3 C atoms in.the acid moiety, especially N,N-dimethylformarnide and N,N-dimethylacetamide.
The starting materials of the formula II to V are known or can be prepared by methods known per se. Com-pounds of the f`ormula IV can, for example, be obtained in accordance with known methods by reacting 3- or 4-nitro-phthalic anhydride or the corresponding halogen compounds with a diamine of the formula III and then cyclisin~ the resulting amidocarboxylic acid.
The azidophthalic a-nhydrides of the formula II
are described in U.S Patent Specification 3,002,00~, The compounds of the formula Ia and Ib can be isolated, with or without purification, by conventional means, for example by stripping off the solvent or con-centrating the reaction solution or suspension in vacuo and then washing the reaction product with water or a suitable inert organic solvent, such as methanol, ethanol 7 dioxane, diethyl ether, methylene chloride or chloroform.
In general, the amidocarboxylic acids of the formula Ia are cyclised directly, i.e. without intermediate isolation, to the bis-imides of the formula Ib.
The compounds according to the invention, of the formula Ib, may be used for the preparation of pho-tocur-able (photo-crosslinkable) mixtures for photomechanical applications. Such mixtures contain at least one polymeric compound and at least one compound of the formula Ib, the weight ratio of the former to the latter advantageously being about 9:1 to 1:4 and preferably about 9:1 to l:l Polymeric compounds ~hich can be crosslinked or cured wi-th the bis-azidophthalimidyl com-pounds of the formula Ib under the action of light, es-pecially of W light, can in principle be any kno~m syn-thetic or natural polyMers, for exarnple polyesters, ~oly-... . ~
