Abstract:
The invention concerns synthesized amido-amine-based cationic gemini surfactants with flexible and rigid spacers and different hydrophobic. These gemini surfactants were prepared by modified procedure through amidation of long chain carboxylic acids using 3-(dimethylamino)-1-propylamine followed by treatment with halohydrocarbons and showed excellent thermal stability and surface properties useful for various oilfield applications such as enhanced oil recovery.
Abstract:
Reaction products of Dimercaptothiadiazole-derived alcohols and alkenyl succinic anhydrides and their subsequent amine reaction products have been found to be effective antiwear/antioxidant multifunctional additives for lubricants.
Abstract:
Disclosed are processes for the preparation of compounds of the formula (I): H2N—(CH2)n—A—(CH2)m—NH2, or (II): H2N—(CH2)n—NH—C(═NR1)—NH—(CH2)m—NH2, wherein n and m are each independently an integer from 2 to 8; A is selected from the group consisting of —NR1—, —NR1—(CH2)r—NR1— and —NR1—(CH2)r—NR1—(CH2)z—NR1—, wherein r and z are an integer ranging from 2 to 8; and R1 is hydrogen or a protecting group having a carbonyl group.
Abstract:
The present invention includes array of new chiral ligands that are optically active or racemic. These ligands are bidentate, tridentate, tetradentate or pentadentate ligands which include P-P, P-N, N-N, mixed P-N, Schiff base or carbene sites. The present invention further includes a catalyst prepared by a process, which includes contacting a transition metal salt, or a complex thereof, and a ligand according to the present invention. The present invention still further includes a process for preparation of an asymmetric compound. In this process, a substrate capable of forming an asymmetric product by an asymmetric reaction and a catalyst according to the present invention are contacted to produce an asymmetric product. Transition metal complexes with these ligands are effective catalysts for asymmetric reactions. Applicant has discovered that asymmetric products can be prepared using the chiral catalysts according to the present invention in enantioselective reactions, such as hydrogenation, hydroformylation, Michael addition, Heck reaction, Aldol reaction, allylic alkylation, cyclopropanation, epoxidation, and olefin metathesis.
