摘要:
A process is described for separating the optical isomers of 1,2-isopropylideneglycerol, of formula (I), comprising partially stereoselective enzymatic hydrolysis of 1,2-isopropylideneglycerol benzoyl ester (II) catalyzed by a free or immobilized lipase, the hydrolysis being conducted in the presence of a cosolvent and followed by crystallization enabling crystals of (II) in raceme form and mother liquor containing (II) in the form of the pure enantiomer to be selectively obtained.The compound (I) is widely used industrially as an intermediate in the synthesis of chiral drugs such as (R)-(-)-carnitine, (S)-beta-blockers, (S)-antiviral agents, analgesic drugs etc.
摘要:
A process for the production of bio-oil from solid urban waste, comprising the following steps: a) subjecting said solid urban waste to liquefaction, obtaining a mixture including an oily phase consisting of bio-oil, a solid phase and an aqueous phase; b) subjecting the aqueous phase obtained in the liquefaction step a) to fermentation, obtaining a fermented biomass; c) feeding the fermented biomass obtained in the fermentation step b) to the liquefaction step a). The bio-oil (or bio-crude) thus obtained can be advantageously used in the production of biofuels which can be used as such or mixed with other motor vehicle fuels. Alternatively, this bio-oil (or bio-crude) can be used as such (biocombustible) or mixed with fossil combustibles (combustible oil, coal, etc.) for the generation of electric energy or heat.
摘要:
Integrated process for the preparation of aromatic isocyanates comprising: the reaction between an aromatic amine and an organiccarbonate in the presence of a catalyst selected from organic and inorganic salts of a metal selected from Zn, Sn, Pb, Cu; the removal of the catalyst; the passivation of the quantity of residual metal in the urethane formed in step a); the removal of the organic solvent and its optional recycling to step a) of the reaction; the evaporation of the aromatic urethane with partial pyrolysis; the complete pyrolysis of the urethane in gas phase; the recovery of the isocyanate.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a process for producing large amounts of 7.beta.-(4-carboxybutanamido)-cephalosporanic acid acylase ("GA") enzyme, which process consists in growing, under suitable culture conditions, a recombinant Escherichia coli K12 strain and subsequently extracting the enzyme from the resulting culture. Enzyme production is controlled by a particular expression system which can be induced by corn-steep liquor, an extremely low cost component of the culture medium. The enzyme can be used in the enzymatic preparation of 7-amino-cephalosporanic acid by starting from 7.beta.-(4-carboxybutanamido)-cephalosporanic acid.
摘要:
A process is described for the preparation of aromatic urethanes in which organic carbonate in a stoichiometric quantity or in a quantity higher than the stoichiometric value is reacted with an aromatic amine operating in the presence of a carbamation catalyst, wherein this catalyst is selected from zinc and/or copper carbonate hydroxide. The process gives high yields and selectivity in the useful reaction product.
