Abstract: Methods for making a branched polycarbonate-polysiloxane copolymer are provided. An interfacial mixture comprising water, an organic solvent, a polyhydric branching agent, a non-siloxane-containing dihydroxy compound, an endcapping agent, a phase transfer catalyst, and a base is formed. The base and the branching agent are dissolved in the mixture before the non-siloxane-containing dihydroxy compound is added and the interfacial mixture has a basic pH. A first carbonate precursor is added to the interfacial mixture while maintaining the pH at from about 3 to about 9 to form a branched polycarbonate mixture. Next, the pH is increased to from about 8 to about 13 and a siloxane oligomer is added to the branched polycarbonate mixture. The branched polycarbonate mixture is then reacted to form the branched polycarbonate-polysiloxane copolymer. The resulting branched copolymer contains 20 ppm or less of residual chloride, is transparent, has improved flow properties, and has good flame retardance at thin wall thicknesses.

Abstract: Methods for making a branched polycarbonate are disclosed. An interfacial mixture comprising water, a substantially water-immiscible organic solvent, a dihydroxy compound, a polyhydric branching agent, an endcapping agent, a catalyst, and a base is formed. The base and the branching agent are dissolved in the mixture before the dihydroxy compound is added, and the interfacial mixture has a basic pH. The mixture is reacted by adding a carbonate precursor to the mixture while maintaining the pH between about 8 and about 10 to form the branched polycarbonate. The resulting branched polycarbonates may contain more than 1.5 mole % of the THPE; have residual chloride content of 20 ppm or less; and a weight average molecular weight of about 55,000 or less. They may also be highly transparent.

Abstract: The reaction of alcohols with oxocarboxylates to form acetals or ketals is catalyzed by unexpectedly low levels of protic acids. By employing low acid catalyst levels compared to amounts conventionally used, rapid formation of acetal or ketal is facilitated while the formation of oxocarboxylate esters is minimized. Further employing a significant molar excess of oxocarboxylate in conjunction with low acid catalyst level gives rise to the rapid and clean formation of acetals and ketals from oxocarboxylates and alcohols.

Abstract: Ketocarboxylic acids such as levulinic acid can be efficiently purified in high yield by esterification with a hydrocarbon polyol to the corresponding polyketocarboxylic ester, which can be readily purified, for example recrystallized. After purification, the ketocarboxylic ester can be hydrolyzed to provide pure ketocarboxylic acid, or a salt thereof, after removal of the esterifying hydrocarbon polyol, or used for other synthetic transformations. Advantageously, the polyketocarboxylic esters, ketocarboxylic acids, and salts thereof produced by this method are obtained in high purity.
