摘要:
This invention provides a process for the selective esterfication of a tertiary alcohol(I) by an acid anhydride(II) to produce corresponding tertiary ester(III) and carboxylic acid(V), using a reusable solid catalyst(IV) comprising one or more halides of indium, gallium, zinc and iron. The process comprises: (i) contacting a mixture of (I) and (II) in the absence or presence of a non aqueous solvent with the fine particles of (IV) in a stirred batch reactor provided with a reflux water condenser at atmospheric pressure at the reaction conditions, such that the mole ratio of (II) to (I) is in the range from about 0.1 to about 10.0; the weight ratio of (IV) to (I+II) is in the range from about 0.005 to about 0.5; the reaction temperature is below about 80° C., and the reaction period is in the range from about 0.1 h to about 50 h; (ii) removing the solid catalyst(IV) from the reaction mixture by filtration; and (iii) reusing the separated solid catalyst for subsequent batch of the process.
摘要:
A supported catalyst and a process for the preparation of the catalyst, the catalyst containing mixed metal oxides or halides deposited on porous catalyst carriers or supports, useful for heterogeneously or solid catalyzed Friedel-Crafts reactions such as alkylation, aralkylation, acylation, or aroylation of aromatic compounds in the preparation of fine chemicals. The supported catalyst has high activity for the Friedel-Crafts reactions when the aromatic ring activating groups are present in the aromatic ring to be aralkylated, acylated or aroylated, and also when the ring activating group is absent or when aromatic ring deactivating groups are present in the aromatic ring to aralkylated, acylated or aroylated, so that the reaction temperature is low and/or the time for completing the reaction is short. The catalyst can be separated and used repeatedly for catalytic reactions.
