摘要:
Ethylenically unsaturated organic compounds, for example diolefins, olefinic nitriles and monoolefins, are noncontaminatingly hydrocyanated into corresponding nitriles by (a) reacting such ethylenically unsaturated organic compounds with hydrogen cyanide in the presence of an aqueous solution containing a catalytically effective amount of a catalyst which comprises at least one nickel compound and at least one water-soluble phosphine, (b) thereafter separating the organic phase from the aqueous phase which result, the separated aqueous phase comprising a solid phase formed during hydrocyanation, and (c) thence treating the separated aqueous phase, or a solid phase removed therefrom, with hydrogen cyanide to thus at least partially dissolve said solid phase contained therein or removed therefrom.
摘要:
Hydrocyanation catalysts comprising aqueous solutions of at least one water-soluble phosphine and nickel values, well suited for the hydrocyanation of ethylenically unsaturated organic compounds such as diolefins, olefinic nitrites and monolefins, are produced by (a) admixing an aqueous solution of such at least one water-soluble phosphine with a nickel hydroxide, (b) adding hydrogen cyanide or a compound which generates hydrogen cyanide to the mixture thus formed, (c) stirring the resulting mixture until the nickel values have at least partially dissolved, and (d) reducing at least a portion of said nickel values having an oxidation state of greater than zero to the zero oxidation state.
摘要:
Water-soluble sulfonated organophosphorus compounds are purified by at least partially removing contaminating sulfite values therefrom, by decreasing the pH of a solution of such sulfonated organophosphorus compounds to a value of less than or equal to 4, and maintaining the pH of the solution at this value of 4 or less for such period of time as to reduce the weight concentration of sulfite in the solution to less than 100 ppm; the organophosphorus compounds thus purified are well suited for the two-phase cocatalysis of a wide variety of organic reactions.

The invention concerns a method for hydrocyanation of ethylenically unsaturated organic compounds comprising at least a nitrile function. The invention provides a method for hydrocyanation of an ethylenically unsaturated hydrocarbon compound by reacting in liquid medium the hydrogen cyanide in the presence of a catalyst comprising a metal element selected among transition metals and an organophosphorous ligand, characterised in that the organophosphorous ligand is a furylphosphine. The invention is in particular useful for synthesizing adiponitrile from butadiene.

摘要:
The invention concerns a method for hydrocyanation of ethylenically unsaturated organic compounds into compounds comprising at least a nitrile function. More particularly, it concerns a method for hydrocyanation of organic compounds comprising at least a ethylenical bond by reacting hydrogen cyanide, in the presence of a catalytic system comprising a transition metal and an organophosphorus ligand. The organophosphorus ligand is a compound with monophosphanorbornadiene structure. The invention concerns in particular hydrocyanation of butadiene into adiponitrile.
