Abstract:
A composition comprising compound (I) of formula and compound (II) of formula wherein R2a and R2b independently from each other are a linear alkyl group with 1 to 4 carbon atoms and R1a, R1b, R3a to R6a and R3b to R6b independently from each other are a hydrogen atom or a linear alkyl group with 1 to 4 carbon atoms.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of bis-(2-hydroxyethyl)-disulfide by oxidizing 2-mercaptoethanol with oxygen in a reaction mixture comprising at least one homogeneously distributed iron comprising salt or complex as catalyst and at least one tertiary amine, to bis-(2-hydroxyethyl)-disulfide, obtainable with the process, and to the use of this bis-(2-hydroxyethyl)-disulfide as intermediate in the manufacture of chemical compounds, such as lubricant additives and in the tertiary oil recovery.
Abstract:
A process for the oxidation of an organic carbonyl compound comprising reacting the organic carbonyl compound, optionally in the presence of a solvent, with hydrogen peroxide in the presence of a catalyst comprising a tin-containing zeolitic material having an MWW-type framework structure.
