摘要:
The present invention discloses a process for the production of 2-methyl-1,4-naphthoquinone and its bisulfite adducts, comprising the following steps: a) oxidizing 2-methyl-naphthalene (2-MNA) to achieve an organic phase containing 2-methyl-naphthoquinone (2-MNQ) and 6-methyl-naphthoquinone (6-MNQ); b) subjecting said organic phase to treatment with an aqueous solution of a bisulfite salt to extract preferentially the 6-MNQ isomer from the organic phase; c) separating said organic phase from the aqueous phase; d) subjecting the organic phase of process step c) to a second bisulfidation step with an aqueous solution of a bisulfite salt, resulting in an organic phase containing 2-MNA and trace amounts of 2-MNQ and an aqueous phase containing 2-MSB and trace amounts of 6-MSB; e) optionally removing interfering bisulfite ions from the aqueous phase of process step c); f) raising the pH of the aqueous phase from step c) or e) to higher than 8.5 in the presence of a solvent resulting in an organic phase containing 2-MNQ; g) combining the organic phase from step f) with the organic phase being treated in the process step d); h) recycling the organic phase from step d) back to step a) to be used as solvent for the oxidation reaction of 2-MNA.

摘要:
The present invention relates to an improved process for the production of perchlorinated quinones by oxidative dehalogenation comprising the steps of providing a stoichiometric mixture consisting of sulfur trioxide, sulfuric acid and at least one aromatic compound containing one or more unsaturated carbon-rings therein. The mixture is reacted with a stoichiometric quantity of chlorine by slowly adding the chlorine to the mixture while stirring. After a sufficient reaction time the resultant perchlorinated quinone product is recovered from the reacted mixture.

摘要:
A method for the preparation of a mixture of fused ring quinone type compounds from lignin and lignin-derived substances. The mixture of fused ring quinone compounds has been found useful in the wood pulping process as an accelerator in the degradation and separation of wood lignin from the other principal wood constituents, cellulose and hemicellulose.
