摘要:
A two-stage process for the co-production of aniline and m-phenylenediamine where, in the first stage, benzene, nitric acid, and sulfuric acid are reacted in a liquid phase to produce in greater amounts nitrobenzene (approximately 70%) and m-dinitrobenzene (approximately 30%), and in lesser or trace amounts o-dinitrobenzene and p-dinitrobenzene, and water; and in the second stage the products of the first stage are reacted with hydrogen in the liquid phase to produce aniline (approximately 70%) and m-phenylenediamine (approximately 30%) in greater amounts, and o-phenylenediamine and p-phenylenediamine in lesser amounts, and water. The reaction products are separated by distillation. The first stage of a preferred embodiment of the process is characterized in that a concentrated mixture of nitric acid and sulfuric acid are fed along with mononitrobenzene to a first reactor for producing dinitrobenzene, and then the dilute acid mixture recovered from this first reactor is fed along with benzene to a second reactor for producing the mononitrobenzene used as a reactant in the first reactor. The second stage, which provides the aniline and m-phenylenediamine, is characterized in that the hydrogenation is carried out in the liquid phase with the unpurified reaction products from the first stage.Preferably, the second stage reaction is carried out utilizing a palladium-on-carbon catalyst in an amount of from 0.006 to 0.25 wt. % based on the total weight of the first stage reaction product mixture. The process is applicable to the co-production of other aromatic mono- and diamines.

摘要:
N-Alicyclic carbamates, useful in making polyurethanes, are prepared by nuclear hydrogenation of an N-aryl carbamate using a group VIII transition metal catalyst. E.g., dimethyl 4,4'-methylenedicarbanilate is contacted with hydrogen and ruthenium catalyst in 2-propanol medium, at 50.degree. C. for 1.3 hours under a pressure of 500-800 psi, to form dimethyl 4,4'-methylenedicyclohexylcarbamate. Acid activation of catalyst is a feature of the invention.

Fiber-forming polyamides are made by transamidation of N-alicyclic diamides with dicarboxylic acids. E.g., bis(4-acetamidocyclohexyl)methane and 1,12-dodecanedioic acid are heated together under nitrogen, then under reduced pressure, to produce a fiber-forming polyamide.
