By contrast, in the system propionic acid d) - methyl isobutyl ketone (2), (fi and are very much different when y 1, Propionic acid has a strong tendency to dimerize with itself and only a weak tendency to dimerize with ketone also,the ketone has only a weak tendency to dimerize with itself. At acid-rich compositions, therefore, many acid molecules have dimerized but most ketone molecules are monomers. Acid-acid dimerization lowers the fugacity of acid and thus is well below unity. Because of acid-acid dimerization, the true mole fraction of ketone is signi-... 

The ketones are readily prepared, for example, acetophenone from benzene, acetyl chloride (or acetic anhydride) and aluminium chloride by the Friedel and Crafts reaction ethyl benzyl ketones by passing a mixture of phenylacetic acid and propionic acid over thoria at 450° and n-propyl- p-phenylethylketone by circulating a mixture of hydrocinnamic acid and n-butyric acid over thoria (for further details, see under Aromatic Ketones, Sections IV,136, IV,137 and IV,141). 

Ethyl benzyl ketone. Use 204 g. of phenylacetic acid (m.p. 77°) and 333 g. (335 -5 ml.) of propionic acid (b.p. 139-141°), but omit the extraction with benzene when working up the distillate. Distil the dried... 

Ethyl p-phenylethyl ketone. Use 100 g. of pure hydrocinnamic acid and 200 g. (201 -5 ml.) of pure propionic acid. Fractionation of the distillate yields 70 g. of diethyl ketone (b.p. 100-102°), 72 g. of ethyl p-phenyl-ethyl ketone (b.p. 245-249° the pure ketone boils at 248°), and 18 g, of crude di-p-phenylethyl ketone (high b.p. residue). 

Diethyl Ketone. Diethyl ketone [96-22-0] (3-pentanone) is isomeric with methyl / -propyl ketone (2-pentanone), which has similar solvent and physical properties. Diethyl ketone is produced by the decarboxylation of propionic acid over Mn02—alumina (165), Zr02 (166), or Zr02 or Th02 on Ti02 (167,168). Diethyl ketone can also be produced by the hydrocarbonylation of ethylene (169—171). It is used as a solvent and a reaction intermediate. 

Propiophenone. Propiophenone [93-55-0] (ethyl phenyl ketone) is a colorless Hquid with a flowery odor. It can be prepared by the Friedel-Crafts reaction of benzene and propionyl chloride in the presence of aluminum chloride (346), or by the catalytic reaction of benzoic acid and propionic acid in the presence of water (347). Propiophenone is commercially available (348), and is sold in Japan at 2700 Y/kg (349). It is used in the production of ephedrine, as a fragrance enhancer, and as a polymerization sensitizer. 

With Unsaturated Compounds. The reaction of unsaturated organic compounds with carbon monoxide and molecules containing an active hydrogen atom leads to a variety of interesting organic products. The hydroformylation reaction is the most important member of this class of reactions. When the hydroformylation reaction of ethylene takes place in an aqueous medium, diethyl ketone [96-22-0] is obtained as the principal product instead of propionaldehyde [123-38-6] (59). Ethylene, carbon monoxide, and water also yield propionic acid [79-09-4] under mild conditions (448—468 K and 3—7 MPa or 30—70 atm) using cobalt or rhodium catalysts containing bromide or iodide (60,61).

Propiolactone is subject to attack by enolate ions to give propionic acid derivatives of ketones. It may likewise react with nucleophilic enamines to give carboxyethylation according to the reactions. The morpholide is easily hydrolyzed to the corresponding acid.

Parallel ketonization of acetic acid and propionic acid was one of the transformations of this type studied in our Laboratory. Ryba6ek and Setinek (94) investigated the kinetics of these reactions in the gaseous phase at 316°C using thorium oxide on activated carbon (p. 27) as the catalyst. This model system allowed the study of each reaction separately as well as of the simultaneous conversion of both acids. 

Ethylene Carbonylation. The classical rhodium catalyzed carbonylation of ethylene to propionic acid (Eqn. 1) used ethyl iodide or HI as a co-catalyst (6). In the presence of excess ethylene and CO the process could proceed further to propionic anhydride (Eqn. 2). While additional products, such as ethyl propionate (EtC02Et), diethyl ketone (DEK), and ethanol were possible (See Eqns. 3-5), the only byproduct obtained when using a rhodium-alkyl iodide catalyst was small amounts (ca. 1-1.5%) of ethyl propionate. (See Eqns. 3-5.)... 

Electrochemistry offers new routes to the production of several commercially relevant a-arylpropionic acids, used as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents (NSAI) [178,182]. A preparative method based on sacrificial Al-electrodes has been set up for the electrocarboxylation of ketones [117,183-187] and successfully applied to the electrocarboxylation of aldehydes, which failed with conventional systems. The electrocarboxylation of 6-methoxy-acetonaphthone to 2-hydroxy-2-(6-methoxynaphthyl)propionic acid, followed by chemical hydrogenation to 2-(6-methoxynaphthyl)-2-propionic acid - one of the most active NSAI acids - has been developed up to the pilot stage [184,186],... 

The development of enantioselective aldol reactions has been widely studied in conjunction with the synthesis of natural products. Highly enantioselective aldol reactions have been achieved by employing chiral enolates of ethyl ketones and propionic acid derivatives.(1) On the other hand, achieving high asymmetric induction in the asymmetric aldol reaction of methyl ketones is still a problem.(2)... 

Few reports describe reactions of substituents at the benzene ring of benzotriazoles. The facile deprotonation of the methyl group in N-Boc-7-methyl-1-aminobenzotriazole (403) with butyllithium followed by reactions with electrophiles gives substituted products (404) (Scheme 78). The electrophile can be an alkyl halide, an aldehyde or a ketone, and the Boc group is removed by brief exposure to CF3CO2H in CH2CI2 <93TL6935>. 1-Acetylbenzotriazole (405) is hydrolyzed to form 3-(177-5-hydroxybenzotriazol-6-yl)propionic acid (406), which is then converted (Scheme 79) to...
