摘要:
The present invention relates to a catalytic continuous process for producing methyl methacrylate, said process comprising the step of reacting methacrolein with oxygen and methanol in the presence of a heterogeneous noble-metal-containing catalyst in an oxidative esterification reaction to give methyl methacrylate, characterized in that the stationary concentration of the starting material methacrolein is equal to or less than 12% by weight based on the total weight of the reaction mixture in the reactor, and the ratio F between the total liquid volume within the reactor expressed in liters divided by the total weight of catalyst in the reactor expressed in kilograms is equal to or less than 4.

The present invention relates to a process for hydrolysis of acetone cyanohydrin (ACH) by means of sulphuric acid within the ACH sulpho process for preparation of methacrylic acid (MAA) or methyl methacrylate (MMA).
摘要:
Catalysts for oxidative esterification can be used, for example, for converting (meth)acrolein to methyl (meth)acrylate. The catalysts are especially notable for high mechanical and chemical stability even over very long time periods, including activity and/or selectivity relatively in continuous operation in media having even a small water content.
摘要:
The invention relates to a process for the selective, economically viable preparation of methacrylic acid and methacrylic esters starting from acetone cyanohydrin, wherein, in a first step, 2-hydroxy-2-methylpropionic acid is prepared by reacting acetone cyanohydrin with sulphuric acid in the presence of water and a suitable polar solvent and is isolated and methacrylic acid is subsequently prepared by β-elimination of water starting from 2-hydroxy-2-methylpropionic acid.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a process for preparing methyl methacrylate by direct oxidative esterification of methacrolein and the preparation of methacrolein. It is a feature of this novel process that it was possible to distinctly increase the yield and the efficiency of the process compared to the prior art through a sequence of different distillation steps.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a process for preparing alpha-hydroxycarboxylic esters from the alcoholysis of alpha-hydroxycarboxam ides in the gas phase, characterized in that the conversion is effected in the presence of water.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a process for preparing methyl methacrylate by a direct oxidative esterification of methacrolein with oxygen and methanol, which is conducted in the liquid phase at a pressure of 2 to 100 bar with a gold catalyst. According to the invention, the liquid phase is withdrawn continuously from the reactor and optionally enriched with oxygenous gas, the pH, after the withdrawal, is adjusted to a pH between 5 and 9 by means of addition of a basic solution and this liquid phase is conducted back into the reactor again to an extent of at least 50%.
