摘要:
Pinacol is manufactured by electrolytic hydrodimerization of acetone in a compartmented cell using a catholyte which contains from 10 to 90% by weight of acetone, from 1 to 60% by weight of water and from 1 to 50% by weight of a quaternary ammonium salt.
摘要:
An electrochemical cell with a nonpartitioned electrolyte chamber and plane electrodes, which form a stack, the chamber filled by the electrolyte forming narrow gaps between the electrodes, and the electrode stack being assembled on a fixed baseplate so that its axis is essentially vertical.
摘要:
Otto cycle engine fuels, for example gasoline, can be improved to such an extent by additives that no deposits or residues form in the carburetor or on the valves. In accordance with the invention esters, amides or imides of hydroaromatic polycarboxylic acids are added which are very effective in cleaning the carburetor and the valves.
摘要:
Production of propiolic acid by anodic oxidation of propargyl alcohol in aqueous sulfuric acid solution, using lead dioxide/titanium composite electrodes as anodes and extracting the propiolic acid from the electrolyte with an ether which contains more than one ether oxygen atom and boils above propiolic acid.
摘要:
The subject invention relates to the preparation of storage-stable alkylene glycol monoalkyl ethers having the general formulaR--(O--A--).sub.n OHin which A represents an ethylene or propylene group, R denotes a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl group, and n has a value of 1 to 4. They are prepared by carrying out the fractional distillation of a mixture which is produced by the alkali catalyzed reaction of ethylene oxide or propylene oxide with an alcohol in the presence of 0.1 to 20 ppm of ammonia based on the amount of the mixture.
摘要:
Aliphatic, cycloaliphatic, aromatic or araliphatic halogen compounds are reductively dehalogenated by reaction with hydrocarbons in the presence of carbon in the liquid phase at from 100.degree. to 450.degree. C. with formation of hydrogen halides.
摘要:
Symmetrical carotenoids are manufactured from the molecular halves thereof by a process wherein phosphonium salts of the molecular halves of these symmetrical carotenoids are oxidized electrochemically in a solvent and in the presence of a base, causing the molecular halves to dimerize, with elimination of substituted phosphine oxide.
摘要:
Bicyclo[2,2,2]oct-7-ene-2,3,5,6-tetracarboxylic acid dianhydride is manufactured by reacting 3,5-cyclohexadiene-1,2-trans-dicarboxylic acid with maleic acid in the presence of anhydrides of low molecular weight alkanecarboxylic acids at from 50.degree. to 150.degree. C. The 3,5-cyclohexadiene-1,2-trans-dicarboxylic acid, in the anhydride of the low molecular weight alkanecarboxylic acid, and in the presence of water-soluble salts of the alkali metals, of the alkaline earth metals or of zinc, manganese or iron, in which salts the anion contains oxygen, is first heated to the reaction temperature and the maleic anhydride is then added.
