Abstract:
The invention is directed to methods of producing alkoxylated or hydroxylated terpenes comprising the steps of continuously passing a solution comprising an alcohol in combination with a terpene over an acidic resin catalyst in a packed bed reactor in order to yield a product, as well as compounds that are the products of the methods described herein.
Abstract:
This disclosure relates to a highly efficient and safe reactor for the continuous quenching of peroxide mixtures generated during the reaction of unsaturated compounds with ozone, which minimizes the amount of highly reactive peroxides accumulated in the reactor at any given time. The reactor may be modified to allow for expansion to accommodate the quenching parameters of a wide variety of ozonolysis reactions and flow rates. The reactor may be constructed from highly pressure rated stainless steel for maximum durability, safety, and economic practicality while increasing the safety of peroxide quenching, thus allowing tighter process control and improved product yields. This disclosure also related to methods for quenching ozonides.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to methods for safe and efficient use of hydrogen and oxygen in ozonolysis operations. The invention also relates to an ozonolysis process involving elements of both reductive and oxidative ozonolysis which are integrated in a continuous process. In one embodiment, the ozonolysis process of the present invention uses hydrogen and/or oxygen generated from water and electricity, which may be recycled to generate water and/or electricity.
Abstract:
The invention contemplates certain polyethers, polyether derivatives, and methods of making and using those same polymers. For example, the starting materials can, e.g., citronellol, prenol, isocitronellol and isoprenol.
Abstract:
The present disclosure is directed to novel derivatives of naturally occurring cannabinoids, methods of making them, compositions comprising them, and methods for using them.
Abstract:
The present disclosure pertains to a new synthetic method for the preparation of 2-methyl-2-hydroxyheptane and 2-methyl-2-alkoxyheptanes, which are valuable commodities for use in flavors, fragrances and various personal care products, such as cosmetics.
Abstract:
The invention relates to diacyl derivatives of certain polyether polymers, compositions comprising the same, and methods of making the same via reaction with substituted or unsubstituted cyclic anhydrides, and methods of using the same.
Abstract:
The present disclosure is directed to novel ether derivatives of terpenes, particularly derivatives of terpene alcohols, and methods of making them, compositions comprising them, and methods for using them.
