Abstract

Provided herein are compositions containing at least one estolide compound and at least one ene and/or Diels Alder compound. In certain embodiments, the addition of at least one ene and/or Diels Alder compound to an estolide-containing composition may improve the cold temperature, viscometric, and/or anti-wear properties of the composition.

First claim

35 . (canceled)

36 . (canceled)

37 . The composition according to claim 34 , wherein R 7 and R 8 are methyl.

38 . The composition according to claim 34 , wherein R 7 and R 8 , independently for each occurrence, are selected from optionally substituted C 6 to C 12 alkyl that is saturated or unsaturated, and branched or unbranched.

39 . The composition according to claim 38 , wherein R 7 and R 8 are 2-ethylhexyl.

40 . The composition according to claim 34 , wherein R 7 and R 8 are unsubstituted.

41 . The composition according to claim 40 , wherein R 7 and R 8 are saturated.

42 . The composition according to claim 41 , wherein R 7 and R 8 are branched.

43 . The composition according to claim 34 , wherein each dashed line represents a single bond.

44 - 74 . (canceled)

75 . A composition comprising
at least one estolide compound; and at least one compound selected from

wherein R 9 and R 10 , independently for each occurrence, are selected from optionally substituted C 1 to C 20 alkyl that is saturated or unsaturated, and branched or unbranched, and wherein each dashed line independently represents a single bond or a double bond.

76 . (canceled)

77 . (canceled)

78 . The composition according to claim 75 , wherein R 9 and R 10 are methyl.

79 . The composition according to claim 75 , wherein R 9 and R 10 , independently for each occurrence, are selected from optionally substituted C 6 to C 12 alkyl that is saturated or unsaturated, and branched or unbranched.

80 . The composition according to claim 75 , wherein R 9 and R 10 are unsubstituted.

82 . The composition according to claim 81 , wherein R 9 and R 10 are branched.

83 . The composition according to claim 75 , wherein each dashed line represents a single bond.

84 - 118 . (canceled)

119 . The composition according to claim 34 , wherein the at least one estolide compound is selected from compounds of Formula V:

wherein
x is, independently for each occurrence, an integer selected from 0 to 20;
y is, independently for each occurrence, an integer selected from 0 to 20;
n is an integer selected from 0 to 8;
R 1 is an unsubstituted C 1 to C 22 alkyl that is saturated or unsaturated, and branched or unbranched; and
R 2 is an unsubstituted C 1 to C 22 alkyl that is saturated, and branched or unbranched,
wherein each fatty acid chain residue of said at least one estolide compound is unsubstituted.

120 . The composition according to claim 119 , wherein R 1 is saturated.

121 . The composition according to claim 120 , wherein x is, independently for each occurrence, an integer selected from 7 and 8.

122 . The composition according to claim 121 , wherein y is, independently for each occurrence, an integer selected from 7 and 8.

123 . The composition according to claim 75 , wherein the at least one estolide compound is selected from compounds of Formula V:

wherein
x is, independently for each occurrence, an integer selected from 0 to 20;
y is, independently for each occurrence, an integer selected from 0 to 20;
n is an integer selected from 0 to 8;
