摘要:
A process for preventing the formation of polymeric by-products during the production of Diels-Alder adducts is improved by the addition of NO or of a compound splitting off NO in situ, as a polymerization inhibitor. This process is especially effective for preventing the formation of polymeric by-products in the manufacture of 5-vinylnorbornene-2. In a tubular reactor, when observing narrow temperature and pressure ranges, a high selectivity is obtained in the production of this adduct.
