Dimethyl synthesis process

Lee, S. Dimethyl Ether Synthesis Process, Final Report, Project 317-6, EPRI TR-100246 Electric Power Research Institute Palo Alto, CA, Feb 1992. [Pg.717]

PCL was dried in a vacuum oven at 70°C for 12 hours. MDI was taken from the refrigerator and kept in a fume hood until it reached room temperature, before being further dried in a vacuum oven at 70°C for one hour. EDO was also dried in a vacuum oven for one hour before synthesis. The synthesis process followed a pre-polymerization method (Hu eta/., 2005 hetal., 2006 Lin and Chen, 1998), whereby the PCL first reacts with excess MDI in a dimethyl formamide (DMF) solution at 90°C for two hours to produce the pre-polymer , before the chain is extended with EDO for another two hours at 85°C. The solid content is about 25 wt.%, and the hard segment content is about 20%. [Pg.262]

Dimethyl Ether. Synthesis gas conversion to methanol is limited by equiUbrium. One way to increase conversion of synthesis gas is to remove product methanol from the equiUbrium as it is formed. Air Products and others have developed a process that accomplishes this objective by dehydration of methanol to dimethyl ether [115-10-6]. Testing by Air Products at the pilot faciUty in LaPorte has demonstrated a 40% improvement in conversion. The reaction is similar to the Hquid-phase methanol process except that a soHd acid dehydration catalyst is added to the copper-based methanol catalyst slurried in an inert hydrocarbon Hquid (26). [Pg.165]

By selection of appropriate operating conditions, the proportion of coproduced methanol and dimethyl ether can be varied over a wide range. The process is attractive as a method to enhance production of Hquid fuel from CO-rich synthesis gas. Dimethyl ether potentially can be used as a starting material for oxygenated hydrocarbons such as methyl acetate and higher ethers suitable for use in reformulated gasoline. Also, dimethyl ether is an intermediate in the Mobil MTG process for production of gasoline from methanol. [Pg.165]

A commercial process based on the Prins reaction is the synthesis of isoprene from isobutylene and formaldehyde through the intermediacy of 4,4-dimethyl-l,3-dioxane (49—51) ... [Pg.492]

Ak2o has been iastmmental ia developiag a new process for the stereospecific synthesis of 1,4-cyclohexane diisocyanate [7517-76-2] (21). This process, based on the conversion of poly(ethylene terephthalate) [25038-59-9] circumvents the elaborate fractional crystallisation procedures required for the existing -phenylenediamine [108-45-2] approaches. The synthesis starts with poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) (32) or phthaUc acid, which is converted to the dimethyl ester and hydrogenated to yield the cyclohexane-based diester (33). Subsequent reaction of the ester with ammonia provides the desired bisamide (34). The synthesis of the amide is the key... [Pg.455]

Nitromethane also is used in the synthesis of the antiulcer dmg, ranitidine [66357-35-5]. A two-step process utilizing nitromethane, carbon disulfide, potassium hydroxide, and dimethyl sulfate yields l,l-bis(methylthio)-2-nitroethene [13623-94 ] which reacts further to produce ranitidine. [Pg.104]

Nucleophilic Substitution Route. Commercial synthesis of poly(arylethersulfone)s is accompHshed almost exclusively via the nucleophilic substitution polycondensation route. This synthesis route, discovered at Union Carbide in the early 1960s (3,4), involves reaction of the bisphenol of choice with 4,4 -dichlorodiphenylsulfone in a dipolar aprotic solvent in the presence of an alkaUbase. Examples of dipolar aprotic solvents include A/-methyl-2-pyrrohdinone (NMP), dimethyl acetamide (DMAc), sulfolane, and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). Examples of suitable bases are sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, and potassium carbonate. In the case of polysulfone (PSE) synthesis, the reaction is a two-step process in which the dialkah metal salt of bisphenol A (1) is first formed in situ from bisphenol A [80-05-7] by reaction with the base (eg, two molar equivalents of NaOH),... [Pg.460]

In addition to its industrial importance as an intermediate in the synthesis of vitamin K, menadione, or more specifically, salts of its bisulfite adduct, are important commodities in the feed industry and are used as stabilized forms in this appHcation. Commercially significant forms are menadione dimethyl pyrimidinol (MPB) (10) and menadione sodium bisulfite (MSB) (11). MSB is sold primarily as its sodium bisulfite complex. The influence of feed processing, ie, pelleting, on the stabiUty of these forms has been investigated (68). The biological availabiUties and stabiUty of these commercial sources has been deterrnined (69,70). [Pg.155]

Eastman Chemical Company has operated a coal-to-methanol plant in Kingsport, Tennessee, since 1983. Two Texaco gasifiers (one is a backup) process 34 Mg/h (37 US ton/h) of coal to synthesis gas. The synthesis gas is converted to methanol by use of ICl methanol technology. Methanol is an intermediate for producing methyl acetate and acetic acid. The plant produces about 225 Gg/a (250,000 US ton/a) of acetic anhydride. As part of the DOE Clean Coal Technology Program, Air Products and Cnemicals, Inc., and Eastman Chemic Company are constructing a 9.8-Mg/h (260-US ton/d) slurry-phase reactor for the conversion of synthesis gas to methanol and dimethyl... [Pg.2377]

Although the Pinner pyrimidine synthesis was discovered a century ago only a few reports on the reaction mechanism have appeared. The condensation of acetylacetone, methyl acetoacetate, or dimethyl malonate with acetamidine (6) has been studied by Katritzky et al. and the reaction mechanisms for these processes have been proposed by these authors. Outlined below is the proposed mechanism of the condensation of methyl acetoacetate (4) with acetamidine (6)7... [Pg.536]

The deoxygeneration of nitroarenes by trivalent phosphorus compounds in the presence of amines is a useful route to 3/f-azepin-2-amines (cf. compounds 32, Section 3.1.1.4.2.2.). Subsequently, it has been shown, by carrying out the reaction in strongly basic solution, that the process can be extended to the synthesis of 1H-. 3H- and 5//-2-benzazepines from nitronaph-thalenes 43 For example, 1-nitronaphthalenes 3 with dimethyl phosphite in the presence of sodium methoxide and a primary or secondary aliphatic amine, yield the dimethyl 5//-2-ben-zazepin-3-yl phosphonates 4 accompanied, in some cases, by the isomeric 3//-2-bcnzazepin-3-yl phosphonates 5. [Pg.254]

Linear step-growth polymerizations require exceptionally pure monomers in order to ensure 1 1 stoichiometry for mutually reactive functional groups. For example, the synthesis of high-molecular-weight polyamides requires a 1 1 molar ratio of a dicarboxylic acid and a diamine. In many commercial processes, the polymerization process is designed to ensure perfect functional group stoichiometry. For example, commercial polyesterification processes often utilize dimethyl terephthalate (DMT) in the presence of excess ethylene glycol (EG) to form the stoichiometric precursor bis(hydroxyethyl)terephthalate (BHET) in situ. [Pg.13]

Fewer procedures have been explored recently for the synthesis of simple six-membered heterocycles by microwave-assisted MCRs. Libraries of 3,5,6-trisubstituted 2-pyridones have been prepared by the rapid solution phase three-component condensation of CH-acidic carbonyl compounds 44, NJ -dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal 45 and methylene active nitriles 47 imder microwave irradiation [77]. In this one-pot, two-step process for the synthesis of simple pyridones, initial condensation between 44 and 45 under solvent-free conditions was facilitated in 5 -10 min at either ambient temperature or 100 ° C by microwave irradiation, depending upon the CH-acidic carbonyl compound 44 used, to give enamine intermediate 46 (Scheme 19). Addition of the nitrile 47 and catalytic piperidine, and irradiation at 100 °C for 5 min, gave a library of 2-pyridones 48 in reasonable overall yield and high individual purities. [Pg.46]

Cu and Ag on Si(lll) surfaces. In the last example, we come back to surfaces. It is well known (44-46) that Cu catalyzes the formation of dimethyl-dichlorosilane from methylchloride and solid silicon, which is a crucial technological step in the synthesis of silicone polymers. Even today, the details of the catalytic mechanism are unclear. Cu appears to have unique properties for example, the congener Ag shows no catalytic activity. Thus, the investigation of the differences between Cu and Ag on Si surfaces can help in understanding the catalytic process. Furthermore, the bonding of noble metal atoms to Si surfaces is of great importance in the physics and chemistry of electronic devices. [Pg.60]

Fuel industry is of increasing importance because of the rapidly growing energy needs worldwide. Many processes in fuel industry, e.g. fluidized catalytic cracking (FCC) [1], pyrolysis and hydrogenation of heavy oils [2], Fischer-Tropsch (FT) synthesis [3,4], methanol and dimethyl ether (DME) synthesis [5,6], are all carried out in multiphase reactors. The reactors for these processes are very large in scale. Unfortunately, they are complicated in design and their scale-up is very difflcult. Therefore, more and more attention has been paid to this field. The above mentioned chemical reactors, in which we are especially involved like deep catalytic pyrolysis and one-step synthesis of dimethyl ether, are focused on in this paper. [Pg.83]
