摘要:
A process for increasing the amount of isolatable products in a by-product stream generated in the production of 1,6 hexanediol includes combining the by-product stream with water to form a combination of the water and the by-product stream; and reacting the combination at a temperature between about 250.degree. C. to about 400.degree. C. at a pressure from about 1,000 psig to about 3,000 psig to form one or more reaction products.
摘要:
An improved process for preparing alkanones and alkanols by oxidizing an alkane and/or alkene having from 3 to 30 carbon atoms to form an oxidation mixture containing alkylhydroperoxide. A basic, aqueous solution is added to the oxidation mixture so that a separate basic water phase with a pH higher than 8.5 is formed. The alkylhydroperoxide is then decomposed in the presence of a heterogeneous catalyst which contains a metal compound immobilized on a carrier material. The metal of the catalyst is selected from the group consisting of Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, and Cu. The carrier material is stable in the presence of the separate basic water phase.
摘要:
A process for producing an optically active cyclohexanol derivative represented by formula (I): ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 represents an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, a hydroxyl group, or a protected hydroxyl group, comprising asymmetrically hydrogenating a cyclohexanone derivative in the presence of a catalyst system composed of a transition metal compound (e.g., transition metal complex), a base (e.g., KOH), and a nitrogen compound (e.g., an amine compound).
摘要:
A process whereby trans-3-isocamphylcyclohexanol, which is useful as a perfume ingredient, can be produced on an industrially available scale, at a low cost and at a high stereoselectivity, is disclosed. The process comprises hydrogenating 3-isocamphylcyclohexanone represented by the following formula (I): ##STR1## by using a ruthenium/phosphine complex as a catalyst in the presence of a base containing an alkali metal or an alkaline earth metal and an amine.
摘要:
Organic hydroperoxides are decomposed by drying a reaction mixture containing the organic hydroperoxide and an organic solvent and contacting the dried reaction mixture with a metal organic ligand catalyst under hydroperoxide decomposition conditions. An organic co-solvent for the hydroperoxide may also be used.

There are disclosed novel processes for the synthesis of novel intermediates useful in the of further synthesis of cyclitols and derivatives thereof.
摘要:
Disclosed is a method for hydrating a cycloolefin, in which the hydration is conducted in a reaction system comprising a continuous aqueous phase including water and a crystalline aluminosilicate catalyst suspended therein and an oil phase including a cycloolefin, while dispersing the oil phase as globules having a specific diameter. By the method of the present invention, not only can a cyclic alcohol be produced at high selectivity and in high yield, but the activity of the catalyst can also be stably maintained at a high level for a prolonged period of time, and the produced cyclic alcohol can be readily separated.
摘要:
The preparation of cyclohexene oxide, cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone involvesa) oxidizing cyclohexane using a gas containing molecular oxygen to form cyclohexyl hydroperoxide, cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone,b) jointly separating the mixture from a) and c) by distillation, andc) reaction of the cyclohexyl hydroperoxide fraction from b) with cyclohexene in the presence of a transition-metal compound from group 4 to 6, forming cyclohexene oxide, and separating the product mixture in b).
