摘要:
Polyoxyalkylene glycols are prepared by a process in which tetrahydrofuran is polymerized with a total of not more than 95 mol %, based on the amount of tetrahydrofuran used, of one or more comonomers from the group consisting of the cyclic ethers and acetals in the absence of water and in the presence of a monohydric alcohol or of a monocarboxylic acid with the aid of an anhydrous heteropoly acid catalyst, and the polyoxyalkylene glycol is liberated from the resulting polyoxyalkylene glycol monoethers or polyoxyalkylene glycol monoesters by cleavage of the monoether or monoester bond.

C., and novel acetals of butene-1,4-dial.

摘要:
The preparation of N-substituted 2-pyrrolidones (I) by the reaction of maleic acid, fumaric acid, or succinic acid or functional derivatives of these acids (compounds II) with a primary amine (III) or by the reaction of amides or imides derived from II and III under hydrogenating conditions in a synthesis stage followed by isolation, by distillation, of I and other volatile components from the resulting reaction mixture, in which the residues present following distillation are subjected to further hydrogenation treatment and the compound (I) thus formed is isolated by distillation.
