Abstract:
The invention describes a method for separating a mandelic compound in salified form from an aqueous reaction medium resulting from the condensation reaction of a hydroxylated aromatic compound with glyoxylic acid in a basic medium, said method comprising a) decanting said reaction medium in such a way as to recover an organic phase formed from the excess of said aromatic compound and an aqueous phase formed from said mandelic compound and a quantity of the excess of said aromatic compound and b) bringing said aqueous phase into contact with an adsorbent support, resulting in the selective adsorption of said aromatic compound and the recovery of an aqueous flow comprising said mandelic compound in salified form, which is subjected to an oxidation step before being converted into hydroxyaromatic aldehyde by electrodialysis.
Abstract:
A method for preparing a compound of formula (I) which is a vanillin derivative, of dimer type, called 3-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzyl)-4-hydroxy-5-methoxybenzaldehyde, such method comprising a reaction of vanillin and vanillyl alcohol in the presence of a base.
Abstract:
The instant invention concerns the use of polymers obtained by radical copolymerization of a mixture of (1) acrylic acid; (2) methacrylic acid; and (3) at least one allylcatechol selected from 4-allylbenzene-1,2-diol, 3-allylbenzene-1,2-diol; methylated forms thereof (eugenols); and mixtures thereof, for treating a metallic surface intended to be adhesive-bonded to another surface, in order to impart a resistance to the adhesive failure to the resulting bonding.
Abstract:
A process for preparing an aromatic compound or compounds where at least one mandelic group —CHOH—COOH is described, comprising a reaction for condensation of at least one aromatic compound with glyoxylic acid or derivatives thereof, wherein said condensation reaction is carried out substantially in the absence of any acid or any base added to the reaction medium. The condensation reaction is followed by an oxidation reaction in order to obtain aromatic aldehyde.
