Abstract
Bis imidazole ethers have been found to be effective metal deactivators. Thus, one aspect of the present invention comprises novel bis imidazole ethers of the formula: ##STR1## in which R is a normal alkyl group having from 1 to 12 carbon atoms and R' is a normal alkyl group having from 1 to carbon atoms, an alkylaryl group having from 7 to 20 carbon atoms, or an aryl group of 6 to 10 carbon atoms. In another aspect of the present invention, an improved lubricating oil is provided comprising a base lubricating oil and the bis imidazole ethers of this invention.
