Title: Di-quaternary ammonium salts of. cap alpha. -1,4-thiazine alkanephosphonic acids

Patent ·
OSTI ID:6485169

Diquaternary ammonium salts of ..cap alpha..-1,4-thiazine alkanephosphonic acids are described which inhibit scale formation in aqueous systems. These salts are useful in the formulation of acid corrosion inhibitors and may be used as microbiocides. These compounds are prepared by reacting 2 mols of an ..cap alpha..-1,r-thiazine alkanephosphonic acid compound with one mol of di-alkylating agent in a suitable polar solvent. Solvents useful in the method are water, mixtures of water and lower alcohol, lower alcohols, dimethyl formamide, and dimethyl sulfonide. After combining the reactants in a suitable reactive medium, the reaction mixture is heated from 50 to 150 c with stirring to promote the alkylation reaction. After the reaction is complete, the diquaternary ammonium product may be isolated or used as is. 5 claims.
