摘要:
Methods for the preparation of alkenes including insect pheromones are described. The methods include homologation reactions employing reagents such as 1,3-diesters, epoxides, cyanoacetates, and cyanide salts for elongation of starting materials and intermediates by one or two carbon atoms. The alkenes include insect pheromones useful in a number of agricultural applications.

The present invention relates to a novel process for the synthesis of 9,9-bis(hydroxymethyl)fluorene. The syntheses from fluorene to 9,9-bis(hydroxymethyl)fluorene via a hydroxymethylation and further to 9,9-bis(methoxymethyl)fluorene via a etherification are known. 9,9-bis(methoxymethyl)fluorene is a compound that is used as an electron donor for Ziegler-Natta catalysts. The present invention is related to an improvement in the synthesis of 9,9-bis(hydroxymethyl)fluorene leading to a decrease in the amount of solvent used and an easier work up while achieving high yield and purity.

Hydrothermal digestion of cellulosic biomass solids in a glycerol solvent system can convert both the cellulosic biomass solids and the glycerol into a glycol reaction product for subsequent processing without the need for further solvent separation. Methods for digesting cellulosic biomass solids in a glycerol solvent system can comprise: providing cellulosic biomass solids and a slurry catalyst in a hydrothermal digestion unit, the slurry catalyst being capable of activating molecular hydrogen; heating the cellulosic biomass solids in the hydrothermal digestion unit in the presence of the slurry catalyst, molecular hydrogen, and a solvent system comprising glycerol, thereby forming soluble carbohydrates; and at least partially converting the soluble carbohydrates and the glycerol into a reaction product comprising a glycol within the hydrothermal digestion unit.
摘要:
Disclosed herein is a method for producing an alcohol and an amine from an amide under an atmosphere of hydrogen with the use of, as a catalyst, a ruthenium complex that is easily prepared, easy to handle, and relatively cheaply obtained. Specifically, the method is a method for producing an alcohol and/or an amine from an amide compound under an atmosphere of hydrogen with the use of as a catalyst, a ruthenium carbonyl complex represented by the following general formula (1): RuXY(CO)(L) (1) wherein X and Y may be the same or different from each other and each represents an anionic ligand and L represents a tridentate aminodiphosphine ligand containing two phosphino groups and a —NH— group.

摘要:
Process for preparing a compound of the formula (I) in which R1 and R2 are each independently H, C1-C8-alkyl, halogen, polyhalo-C1-C8-alkoxy, polyhalo-C1-C8-alkyl, C1-C8-alkoxy, C1-C8-alkoxy-C1-C8-alkyl, or C1-C8-alkoxy-C1-C8-alkoxy, where R1 and R2 are not both H, and R3 is C1-C8-alkyl, which is characterized in that a) a compound of the formula (II) in which R1 and R2 are each as defined above and X is Br, I, triflate, toyslate or mesylate is reacted with prop-2-yn-1-ol to give the compound of the formula (III), b) the compound of the formula (III) is reacted with an alkyl-metal compound in which “alkyl” is as defined above for R3 to give a compound of the formula (I).
摘要:
Process for preparing 1-octa-2,7-dienyl derivatives by reacting a 1,3-butadiene-containing hydrocarbon mixture, in particular a C4 fraction from a cracker, with nucleophiles, in which acetylenically unsaturated compounds are removed from the starting hydrocarbon mixture by selective hydrogenation and a telomerization is subsequently carried out.

A catalyst comprising nickel on a TiO2 support is obtainable by coprecipitation of nickel and at least one further metal selected from among Si, Zr, Hf, alkaline earth metals, Y, La and Ce, and optionally at least one dopant metal selected from groups 5 to 11 of the Periodic Table of the Elements, from a solution in which the corresponding metal salts are present onto a particulate TiO2 support, subsequent drying, calcination and reduction and optionally passivation to give the nickel-containing catalyst. It is used, in particular, for the hydrogenation of nitroaromatic compounds.
