Abstract:
A method of reacting halogenated ketones with sulfenes to produce a composition of polyhalogenated sulfonate esters comprising a new class of Beta -sultones and a new class of alkenyl sulfonates.
Abstract:
Amides are produced from ketoximes by Beckmann rearrangement in hydrogen fluoride medium at temperature between 0* to 75* C. using a carboxylic acid or anhydride catalyst.
Abstract:
A process for preparing 3,5-dialkyl phenols is provided. In one embodiment an ortho-, para-, or meta-monoalkyl phenol is caused to isomerize and/or disproportionate to the 3,5-dialkyl phenol in reaction medium comprising liquid hydrogen fluoride. In another embodiment the 3,5-dialkyl phenol is obtained by contacting phenol with an alkylating agent selected from tertiary alcohols, tertiary alkyl halides, and olefins in a reaction medium comprising liquid hydrogen fluoride.
Abstract:
PRODUCTION OF 2-AMINOMALONAMIDES HAVING HYDROCARBYL SUBSTITUENTS, WHICH AMIDES ARE USEFUL AS PHARMACEUTICAL AND AGRICULTURAL CHEMICALS, ANTIPLASTICIZERS, PROCESSING AIDS AND THE LIKE, BY THE REACTION OF OLEFINS, HYDROGEN CYANIDE AND ANHYDROUS HYDROGEN FLUORIDE FOLLOWED BY HYDROLYSIS.
