Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process of production of a compound, which is useful as an intermediate (building block) in organic synthesis, especially in the synthesis of vitamin A or β-carotene and derivatives thereof, e.g. canthaxanthin, astaxanthin or zeaxanthin.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a device for treatment of material transported through the device comprising at least one porous element consisting of specific solid metallic structure which allows cross-flow of the material through the porous element and wherein the porous element is coated by a non-acidic metal oxide which is impregnated by palladium (Pd).

Abstract:
The present invention relates to an improved method for producing of 1-(5,5-dimethylcyclohex-1-en-1-yl)ethanone and 1-(5,5-dimethylcyclohex-6-en-1-yl)ethanone.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process of the asymmetric hydrogenation of a ketal of an unsaturated ketone or an acetal of an unsaturated aldehyde by molecular hydrogen in the presence of at least one chiral iridium complex. This process yields chiral compounds in a very efficient way and is very advantageous in that the amount of iridium complex can be remarkably reduced.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process of manufacturing (6R,10R)-6,10,14-trimetylpentadecan-2-one in a multistep synthesis from 6,10-dimetylundec-5-en-2-one or 6,10-dimetylundeca-5,9-dien-2-one. The process is very advantageous in that it forms in an efficient way the desired chiral product from a mixture of stereoisomers of the starting product.
