This invention is concerned with improvements in and relating to the manufacture of derivatives of disubstituted methane compounds, and it relates more particularly to the preparation of new derivatives of compounds of the general formula R1-CH2R2, (hereinafter referred to as D. S. M. compounds) in which R1 and R2, which may either be identical or different, are chosen from the residues of the following classes of substances:
A phenol sulphonic acid,
An alkyl phenol sulphonic acid,
A carboxyl phenol sulphonic acid,
A diphenyl or alkyl diphenyl monoor disulphonic acid,
A benzene sulphonic acid,
A sulpho benzoic acid,
A naphthalene or alkylnaphthalene monoor disulphonic acid,
A naphthol or alkyl naphthol sulphonicacid, or
A nuclear substituted halogen, amino or nitro derivative of any of the above substances.
These D. S. M. compounds are substances of the synthetic tanning material type, and British Patent No. 547,564 describes the preparation for medical and like uses of substances prepared by combining D. S. M. compounds with bactericidal and/or physiologically useful organic bases or with the hydrate or oxide of one or more of the metals zinc, bismuth, copper and mercury so as to form salts. A further development of this work is described in British Patent No. 552,751 which discloses the preparation of silver and/or lead derivatives of D. S. M. compounds, these metals being known to possess antiseptic properties. Thesaid prior specifications explain how substances prepared by combining a D. S. M. compound having tanning properties with abactericidal or antiseptic component can be used advantageously for medical and allied purposes inter alia because the tanning action of the D. S. M. component enables the bactericidal or antiseptic component to be fixed and held in the skin or tissue.
We have now found that a further series of new and valuable derivatives of D. S.'M. compounds can be produced by combining them with organometallic compounds of the undermentioned general formula.
Many of these organometallic compounds have valuable bactericidal, fungicidal, insecticidal or other useful properties, and we have found that by combining such compounds with D. S. M.
compounds products are obtained which have an extended field of usefulness compared with those of the products described in the said prior specifications and which can be used with advantage for many purposes, such for example as in agriculture, horticulture, the preservation of timber, in the textile industry, as well as in medicine and pharmacy. According to the invention therefore we prepare new and useful products by treating a D. S. M. compound, as herein defined, with an organometallic compound having useful properties and of the general formula RsMA, where R3 is an alkyl, aryl, aralkyl or heterocyclic radicle which may or may not be substituted with neutral, acidic or basic substituents, M is a polyvalent metal, preferably mercury or arsenic, and A is an acidic radicle such as halide, nitrate, acetate or hydroxide or oxide or (when R3 is basic or contains a basic substituent) an atomic grouping forming with M an acidic radicle and of such a nature that the compound will react with the D. S. M. compound, and irrespective of whether the said group is or is not split olf in the process of the formation of the D. S. M. organometallic compound.
Whilst we do not desire to be limited by any theoretical explanations, it may be said that the reaction which occurs appears to be one of salt formation and this may as stated above occur either with or without elimination or splitting off of the group or element A. It is clear that the reaction can take place in several ways all falling within the scope of the invention. Thus, in the simple case of the example given below, it is probable that the reaction can be represented by the following equation, in which R-SOsH has been Written for R1 and R SO3I-I for R2 in the general formula set out above: HO3SRCH2R1SO3H+2R3MA= R3M-O3SR-Ch2-R SO3MR3+2HA It will be seen that in this case the group or radicle A is split off, but if R3 were basic or had a basic substituent, as for example in the case of pyridyl group, the radicle A might or might not be split off.
If, for example RsMA were pyridyl mercuric I chloride, it is unlikely that the chlorine would be eliminated, 'at any rate completely, and the resulting reaction might be wholly or partly represented thus:
If, on the other hand, R3MA were to be pyridyl mercuric acetate, it is probable that both reactions would occur, depending on the reaction conditions, such for example as pH.
In general it may however be said that the organometallic compound RsMA should be one of basic function, which may, but need not necessarily, be centred on the metallic atom. In the cases of the stated mercury compounds, the basic function is centred on the M atom, but the use of other compounds such for example as an amino phenyl-arsonic acid, in which it is not so centred would of course also fall within the scope of the invention.
Whilst of course the invention comprises the production of the new substances in solid form, it is not limited to the carrying out of the reaction with stoichiometric proportions of the reaction components, and important advantages can, according to the invention, be secured by departing from such proportions.
It has hitherto been a drawback to the general use of organometallic compounds, particularly the aryl mercury compounds, that their solubilities in water and aqueous solutions, and in the commoner organic solvents are too low for satisfactory application of the compounds.
We have found that the new compounds are readily soluble, in an excess of the D. S. M. compounds from which they have been prepared, or in other D. S. M. compounds as well as in an excess of the parent sulphonic acids corresponding to R1 and R2, and this property enables the new compounds to be prepared in the form of solutions, suitable for application either as such or after dilution with water if necessary.
In general we have found that a pH value of from 4-65 is usually advantageous, and this can conveniently be attained by a suitable adjustment of the quantities of the above-mentioned solubilising substances; it should however be noted that the use of other substances, such for example as mineral acids for the purpose of pH adjustment would not fall outside the scope of the invention.
The desired effect can be achieved either by first preparing the solid compound and then dissolving it in a suitable quantity of the selected solubilising agent or agents, so as to produce a solution of the desired strength and pH value, or the composition of the reaction mixture can be so adjusted as to yield a solution of the new compound after completion of the reaction, any necessary adjustment of pH value being subsequently carried out.
Accordingly the invention also comprises a method of manufacturing a solution of a D. S. M./organometallic compound prepared by the above mentioned method either in an excess of the same D. S. M. compound or in one or more of the following: Solutions of one or more D. S. M. compounds other than the one used for the preparation of the D. S. M./organometallic compound or of one or more of the acids corresponding to R1 or R2 either with or without the addition of one or more mineral acids.
The invention also comprises the adjustment of the pH value of such solutions to from 46.5.
In order to facilitate a better understanding of the invention, the following examples of how it may be carried out are given only as illustrations:
Example I 1.37 parts by weight of phenyl mercuric hydroxide was boiled with water until solution was complete, and to this was added, drop by drop, 3.8 parts by weight of the D. S. M. condensation product of naphthalene-2-sulphonic acid and formaldehyde (prepared by the method disclosed in British Patent No. 547,564) in 28% concentration. When the equivalent amount had been thus added a gelatinous precipitate was thrown down, and the solution was found to be acid to Congo red paper. At this stage the solution is unfilterable, but when a further 10% excess (0.38 part by weight) of D. S. M. compound had been added in the same way, the insoluble material coagulated and was separated and dried, yielding 1.1 parts by weight.

To the hot alcoholic solution 26.5 parts by weight of the D. S. M. condensation product of naphthalene-Z-sulphonic acid and formaldehyde in 35% concentration (1 mol) was added with stirring, a thick gelatinous precipitate separated which, after standing two hours, was filtered off and dried; yielding 8.2 parts by weight of the phenyl mercury complex. By concentrating the alcoholic mother liquors a further 5.9 parts by weight was obtained,
Per cent Found, Hg 44.0 C33H24O6S2Hg2 the true salt requires Hg 40.9 C45H3sOsS2Hg4 the basic salt requires Hg 51.1

This phenyl mercury complex was a buff powder and dissolved to give a 13.5% solution in a 35% aqueous solution of bis-(naphthalene-Z- sulphonic acid)-methane; this could be diluted without developing instability to form a solution containing 1 phenyl-mercury complex, with the pH adjusted to 4.0-4.5; this solution was then diluted 1000 times, the pH readjusted and the solution introduced into timber by the full cell process. The product was resistant to most of the common fungi.
In a similar manner the basic salt was isolated. 8.0 parts by weight of phenyl mercuric acetate (4 mols) was dissolvedin parts by weight of hot absolute alcohol, the solution was treated with a little charcoal and filtered, to the hot alcoholic solution 7.3 parts by weight of the D. S.

This was heated on the steam bath until the odour of formaldehyde disappeared (several hours) and evaporated to dryness. 5:4 parts glistening deep red scales were obtained. 1.62 parts of this condensation product (by weight) were dissolved in 760 parts by weight 5 0% ethyl alcohol and the mixture with 3.36 parts by weight of phenyl mercury acetate in 60 parts by weight absolute alcohol heated to boiling and filtered from a slight residue. It was then evaporated on the steam-bath and a reddish pb'wde r separated out which was found to contain 42.7% mercury.

Example XII Bis-(naphthalene-Z-sulphonic acid) methane, benzyl mercury complex:
2 parts by weight benzyl mercury chloride was dissolved in parts by weight absolute alcohol. To this was added freshly precipitated silver oxide (from 2.8 parts by weight silver nitrate and 48 parts by weight sodium hydroxide).
The suspension was stirred and refluxed for 8 Hours until a few drops on filtering showed no date of chloride, The solution was then filtered hot and 2.63 parts by Weight'of bis- (naphthalene 2-sulphonic acid) methane solution, 49.7% w./w. added to the f ltrate. I After several hours the gelatinous mass was filtered at the pump and dried. V v i We claim: 7
