Method for obtaining carboxylic acids by reaction of alkanes and

A process is provided for the preparation of an overalkalinized additive for lubricant oils which consists of carbonating a reaction mixture composed of at least one detergent, one derivative of alkaline or alkaline earth metal, at least one nitrogenized and/or oxygenated promoter in a diluent oil and a hydrocarbonated solvent, and wherein the operation is carried out in the presence of at least one boron derivative. Also provided, the additives thus obtained and lubricant compositions containing the additive. These additives are homogeneous and stable, and have very good antiwear properties.

The present invention concerns a process for preparing a basic additive for lubricating oils having an antiwear and detergent effect, the additive thus obtained and a lubricating composition containing the additive. The process consists of contacting an amino-acid in solution or in dispersion in the oil with a detergent, an alkaline-earth metal derivative, carbon dioxide in diluent oil, a hydrocarbon-based solvent, and a polar solvent in the presence of a nitrogen-based basic derivative.

This invention concerns a process for preparing very fluid overbased additives having a high basicity, by contacting an alkaline-earth metal derivative and at least one surfactant with carbon dioxide in a diluent oil and a hydrocarbon-based solvent in the presence of an oxygen-based promoter and a nitrogen-based promoter wherein the carbonation time is comprised between an initial point Po corresponding to the beginning of the temperature plateau of the exothermic reaction and the end point of the carbonation which corresponds to a sudden drop of the alkaline value, the additives according to the invention being utilized in lubricating oils and fuels.

A process for the preparation of beta-disubstituted monocarboxylic acids derived from tertiary acyclic, monocyclic or bicyclic hydrocarbons. The process consists in reacting said hydrocarbons with vinylidene chloride and either a functional compound where the molecule includes a tertiary carbon atom bonded to the heteroatom of a functional group such as a tertiary alcohol, an ether, or a tertiary halide or an alkene, in the presence of a concentrated protonic acid. The reaction can be carried out in the presence of a catalyst of the Lewis acid type and particularly BF.sub.3. These acids are useful as synthesis intermediates and as additives for oils and lubricants.
