Abstract:
The invention concerns a method for preparing an oxysulphide and fluorinated derivative, said method comprising the reacting, in the presence of an organic solvent, of: i) at least one compound of formula Ea-COOR (I), in which Ea represents the fluorine atom or a group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms chosen from fluoroalkyls, perfluoroalkyls and fluoroalkenyls and R represents hydrogen, a monovalent cation or an alkyl group, and ii) a sulphur oxide, said method being such that the initial molar ratio (sulphur oxide/compound of formula (I)) is less than 0.4 and the concentration of sulphur oxide dissolved in the reaction medium is kept constant for the entire duration of the reaction to a value of between 0.2% and 3% by weight by means of continually adding said sulphur oxide to the reaction medium.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for the purification of crude eugenol by distillation in the presence of at least one stabilizing compound. The process of the present invention may be operated industrially, exhibits improved properties, in particular in terms of process safety, and makes possible efficient separation of ortho-eugenol. The present invention also relates to compositions comprising eugenol.
Abstract:
The present invention concerns a method for preparing an oxysulphide and fluorinated derivative of formula (III) Ea-SO3R (III) that comprises bringing a compound of formula (II) Ea-SOOR (II)—Ea representing the fluorine atom or a group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms chosen from the fluoroalkyls, the perfluoroalkyls and the fluoroalkenyls; and—R representing hydrogen, a monovalent cation or an alkyl group; into contact, in the presence of a polar aprotic organic solvent, with an oxidising agent.
