摘要:
The invention relates to a process for preparing a propiolic acid or a derivative thereof by reacting a terminal alkyne with carbon dioxide, which comprises performing the reaction in the presence of a base and a copper complex, especially a copper (I) complex having at least one ligand, at least one of the ligands of the copper complex being selected from monodentate ligands which have an aminic or iminic nitrogen atom capable of coordination with copper, and polydentate ligands having at least two atoms or atom groups which are capable of simultaneous coordination with copper and are selected from nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur, phosphorus and carbene carbon.
摘要:
The present invention describes a process for converting a terminal alkyne into an alkynoic acid. In this process the alkyne is exposed to carbon dioxide in the presence of a copper (I) species, a base and a complexing agent capable of complexing copper (I).
摘要:
A process for producing ethanol including a combination of biochemical and synthetic conversions results in high yield ethanol production with concurrent production of high value coproducts. An acetic acid intermediate is produced from carbohydrates, such as com, using enzymatic milling and fermentation steps, followed by conversion of the acetic acid into ethanol using esterification and hydrogenation reactions. Coproducts can include corn oil, and high protein animal feed containing the biomass produced in the fermentation.

The present invention provides a method for producing 3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzoic acid comprising:
(1) providing 2,6-di-tert-butylphenol which may contain up to 0.5 % by weight of 3,3',5,5'-tetra-tert-butyl-4,4'-dihydroxybiphenyl; (2) reacting a basic alkali metal compound with an excess amount of the 2,6-di-tert-butylphenol, which is: in excess of the basic alkali metal compound, to give the alkali metal 2,6-di-tert-butylphenolate; and (3) reacting the alkali metal 2,6-di-tert-butylphenolate obtained in step (2) with carbon dioxide to give 3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzoic acid. According to the method of the present invention, 3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzoic acid can be obtained with high and stable yield.

The present invention provides a process for dehydrating hydrous sodium β-naphtholate comprising: the step of heating the hydrous sodium β-naphtholate or a mixture of the hydrous sodium β-naphtholate and β-naphthol which comprises no more than 0.2 mole of β-naphthol per one mole of sodium β-naphtholate in a solvent at a temperature of 260-300°C under an inert gas. The process makes it possible to dehydrate hydrous sodium β-naphtholate thoroughly in a short time with less production of tarry components.
摘要:
A method of performing a one-pot organic reaction including carbon monoxide as reactant without the use of an external CO gas source is described wherein a reaction mixture containing a solid or liquid CO releasing compound, a non-metal substrate and a metal catalyst is exposed to an energy source to release carbon monoxide from the CO releasing compound and wherein carbon atoms of the released carbon monoxide form a bond with the non-metal substrate compound. A method of preparing chemical libraries and a kit for organic reactions are also described.
摘要:
Disclosed is a producing method for a compound of formula (II), which comprises reacting a compound of formula (I) with CO 2 , in the presence of sodium t-butoxide, in an aprotic polar solvent, thereby introducing a carboxyl group at the 2- or 4-position thereof: wherein R 1 is a substituent, with a proviso that any one of R 1 's at o- or p-position to the hydroxyl group is a hydrogen atom; n is an integer of 0 to 4. There is also disclosed a producing method of a compound of formula (IV). This production method can produce phenols or naphthols having a carboxyl group introduced at the 2- or 4-position, under a relatively moderate condition and in the manner advantageous for industrial production.
摘要:
Disclosed is an oxidation free process for converting a hydroxy substituted aromatic to an aromatic diacid which comprises reacting said hydroxy substituted aromatic with excess basic salt in the presence of carbon dioxide at disproportionation/isomerization reaction conditions.
摘要:
Disclosed is a method for selective carboxylation of naphthoic acid, or other aromatic mono-acids to form primarily 2,3-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid (2,3-NDA) or other aromatic diacids which comprises reacting said aromatic mono-acid in the presence of one or more metal oxide catalysts, alone, or in combination, and in the presence of about 0.2 to 0.8 moles excess of base over aromatic mono-acid, at a temperature of about 380°C to about 420°C, and, in a second step, disproportionating the product of said selective carboxylation at a temperature above about 420°C to form a product with a greatly improved yield of 2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid, or other aromatic dicarboxylic acid.
