DEFINITION

Classification: 508/463

Specified compound wherein the single bonded oxygen is bonded directly to an additional carbon, which carbon may be single bonded to any atom but may be multiple bonded only to carbon (i.e., specified carboxylic acid ester):

(under subclass 459) Compositions which contain a specified compound wherein an additional carbon is bonded directly to the single bonded oxygen, which carbon may be single bonded to any atom but may be multiple bonded only to carbon.

(1) Note. This subclass encompasses carboxylic acid esters.

(2) Note. The expression "specified compound" means that a carboxylic acid ester lubricant base component, in order to be classified in this subclass or its indents, must be structurally identified to the point where the component can be placed in this subclass or a specific indent on the basis of a complete structure. This structure may be expressed generically or specifically, but it must be expressed in the claims. Such descriptions as "ester," "carboxylic acid ester," "aryl ester," "aliphatic ester," "substituted carboxylic acid ester," etc. will not be deemed sufficient to warrant classification in this subclass or its indents. A generically expressed structure which would be properly classifiable herein may be exemplified by "an alkyl benzoate, substituted in the alkyl portion by halogen, amino or alkoxy." Such a generic expression allows identification of exact substances within its scope.

When a carboxylic acid ester is present as a lubricant additive rather than as a lubricant base, placement of such an additive will be effected in the normal manner.
