Abstract

Provided are compounds of the following:

wherein R 1 is a saturated or unsaturated cyclic hydrocarbon optionally substituted with an alkyl and/or an OXO-ester, and R 2 is a C 4 to C 14 hydrocarbyl, preferably the residue of a C 4 to C 14 OXO-alcohol. Also provided are processes for making the compounds and plasticized polymer compositions containing said compounds.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A mixture of compounds represented by the formulas:

and one or more of

and/or

and/or

wherein each R 3 is, independently, —CO 2 R 2 *, R 2 is a C 4 to C 14 hydrocarbyl, R 2 * is a C 4 to C 14 hydrocarbyl, that may be the same or different as R 2 .

2. The mixture of claim 1 , wherein each R 2 is, independently, a C 6 to C 9 hydrocarbyl.

3. The mixture of claim 1 , wherein each R 2 is, independently, a C 6 , C 7 , C 8 or C 9 alkyl.

4. The mixture of claim 1 , wherein each R 2 is, independently, hexyl, heptyl, octyl or nonyl, or an isomer thereof.

5. The mixture of claim 1 , wherein the mixture comprises:

where each R 2 is, independently, a C 4 to C 14 hydrocarbyl.
