COT is prepared by the polymerization of ethyne at moderate temperature and pressure in the presence of nickel salts. The molecule is non-planar and behaves as a typical cyclic olefin, having no aromatic properties. It may be catalytically hydrogenated to cyclo-octene, but with Zn and dil. sulphuric acid gives 1,3,6-cyclooclairiene. It reacts with maleic anhydride to give an adduct, m.p. 166 C, derived from the isomeric structure bicyclo-4,2,0-octa-2,4,7-triene(I) ... 

Diallylsulfonium salts undergo intramolecular allylic rearrangement with strong bases to yield 1,5-dienes after reductive desulfurization. The straight-chain 1,5-dienes may be obtained by double sulfur extrusion with concomitant allylic rearrangements from diallyl disulfides. The first step is achieved with phosphines or phosphites, the second with benzyne. This procedure is especially suitable for the synthesis of acid sensitive olefins and has been used in oligoisoprene synthesis (G.M. Blackburn, 1969). 

Reductive coupling of carbonyl compounds to yield olefins is achieved with titanium (0), which is freshly prepared by reduction of titanium(III) salts with LiAIH4 or with potassium. The removal of two carbonyl oxygen atoms is driven by T1O2 formation- Yields are often excellent even with sensitive or highly hindered olefins. (J.E. McMurry, 1974, 1976A,B). 

Michael condensations are catalyzed by alkaU alkoxides, tertiary amines, and quaternary bases and salts. Active methylene compounds and aUphatic nitro compounds add to form P-substituted propionates. These addition reactions are frequendy reversible at high temperatures. Exceptions are the tertiary nitro adducts which are converted to olefins at elevated temperatures (24). 

Anhydrous silver hexafluorophosphate [26042-63-7] AgPF, as well as other silver fluorosalts, is unusual in that it is soluble in ben2ene, toluene, and xylene and forms 1 2 molecular crystalline complexes with these solvents (91). Olefins form complexes with AgPF and this characteristic has been used in the separation of olefins from paraffins (92). AgPF also is used as a catalyst. Lithium hexafluorophosphate [21324-40-3] LiPF, as well as KPF and other PF g salts, is used as electrolytes in lithium anode batteries (qv). 

Other applications of zirconium tetrafluoride are in molten salt reactor experiments as a catalyst for the fluorination of chloroacetone to chlorofluoroacetone (17,18) as a catalyst for olefin polymerization (19) as a catalyst for the conversion of a mixture of formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, and ammonia (in the ratio of 1 1 3 3) to pyridine (20) as an inhibitor for the combustion of NH CIO (21) in rechargeable electrochemical cells (22) and in dental applications (23) (see Dentalmaterials). 

In the manufacture of 2-naphthalenol, 2-naphthalenesulfonic acid must be converted to its sodium salt this can be done by adding sodium chloride to the acid, and by neutralizing with aqueous sodium hydroxide or neutralizing with the sodium sulfite by-product obtained in the caustic fusion of the sulfonate. The cmde sulfonation product, without isolation or purification of 2-naphthalenesulfonic acid, is used to make 1,6-, 2,6-, and 2,7-naphthalenedisulfonic acids and 1,3,6-naphthalenetrisulfonic acid by further sulfonation. By nitration, 5- and 8-nitro-2-naphthalenesulfonic acids, [89-69-1] and [117-41-9] respectively, are obtained, which are intermediates for Cleve s acid. All are dye intermediates. The cmde sulfonation product can be condensed with formaldehyde or alcohols or olefins to make valuable wetting, dispersing, and tanning agents. 

All lnaphthalenesulfonic Acids. The aLkyLnaphthalenesulfonic acids can be made by sulfonation of aLkyLnaphthalenes, eg, with sulfuric acid at 160°C, or by alkylation of naphthalenesulfonic acids with alcohols or olefins. These products, as the acids or their sodium salts, are commercially important as textile auxiUaries, surfactants (qv), wetting agents, dispersants (qv), and emulsifying aids, eg, for dyes (qv), wettable powder pesticides, tars, clays (qv), and hydrotropes. 

In the presence of amine salts of weak acids, the nitro olefin is formed direcdy. 

Primary nitroparaffins react with two moles of formaldehyde and two moles of amines to yield 2-nitro-l,3-propanediamines. With excess formaldehyde, Mannich bases from primary nitroparaffins and primary amines can react further to give nitro-substituted cycHc derivatives, such as tetrahydro-l,3-oxa2iaes or hexahydropyrimidines (38,39). Pyrolysis of salts of Mannich bases, particularly of the boron trifluoride complex (40), yields nitro olefins by loss of the amine moiety. Closely related to the Mannich reaction is the formation of sodium 2-nitrobutane-1-sulfonate [76794-27-9] by warming 1-nitropropane with formaldehyde and sodium sulfite (41). 

The solvent is 28 CC-olefins recycled from the fractionation section. Effluent from the reactors includes product a-olefins, unreacted ethylene, aluminum alkyls of the same carbon number distribution as the product olefins, and polymer. The effluent is flashed to remove ethylene, filtered to remove polyethylene, and treated to reduce the aluminum alkyls in the stream. In the original plant operation, these aluminum alkyls were not removed, resulting in the formation of paraffins (- 1.4%) when the reactor effluent was treated with caustic to kill the catalyst. In the new plant, however, it is likely that these aluminum alkyls are transalkylated with ethylene by adding a catalyst such as 60 ppm of a nickel compound, eg, nickel octanoate (6). The new plant contains a caustic wash section and the product olefins still contain some paraffins ( 0.5%). After treatment with caustic, cmde olefins are sent to a water wash to remove sodium and aluminum salts. 

In the Godrej-Lurgi process, olefins are produced by dehydration of fatty alcohols on alumina in a continuous vapor-phase process. The reaction is carried out in a specially designed isothermal multitube reactor at a temperature of approximately 300°C and a pressure of 5—10 kPa (0.05—0.10 atm). As the reaction is endothermic, temperature is maintained by circulating externally heated molten salt solution around the reactor tubes. The reaction is sensitive to temperature fluctuations and gradients, hence the need to maintain an isothermal reaction regime. 

Benzene is alkylated with C g and C20+ olefins and subsequently sulfonated and neutralized with a dibasic salt such as calcium, magnesium, or barium. These so-called overbased sulfonates are used ia crankcase additive packages. 

The principal use of the peroxodisulfate salts is as initiators (qv) for olefin polymerisation in aqueous systems, particularly for the manufacture of polyacrylonitrile and its copolymers (see Acrylonitrile polymers). These salts are used in the emulsion polymerisation of vinyl chloride, styrene—butadiene, vinyl acetate, neoprene, and acryhc esters (see Acrylic ester polymers Styrene Vinyl polymers). 

Reaction conditions depend on the reactants and usually involve acid or base catalysis. Examples of X include sulfate, acid sulfate, alkane- or arenesulfonate, chloride, bromide, hydroxyl, alkoxide, perchlorate, etc. RX can also be an alkyl orthoformate or alkyl carboxylate. The reaction of cycHc alkylating agents, eg, epoxides and a2iridines, with sodium or potassium salts of alkyl hydroperoxides also promotes formation of dialkyl peroxides (44,66). Olefinic alkylating agents include acycHc and cycHc olefinic hydrocarbons, vinyl and isopropenyl ethers, enamines, A[-vinylamides, vinyl sulfonates, divinyl sulfone, and a, P-unsaturated compounds, eg, methyl acrylate, mesityl oxide, acrylamide, and acrylonitrile (44,66). 

The alpha-olefin sulfonates (AOS) have been found to possess good salt tolerance and chemical stabiUty at elevated temperatures. AOS surfactants exhibit good oil solubilization and low iaterfacial tension over a wide range of temperatures (219,231), whereas less salt tolerant alkylaromatic sulfonates exhibit excellent chemical stabiUty. The nature of the alkyl group, the aryl group, and the aromatic ring isomer distribution can be adjusted to improve surfactant performance under a given set of reservoir conditions (232,233). 

Phosphonium salts may also be prepared by the addition of tertiary phosphines to carbonyl compounds or olefins (97). 

AUylamines are somewhat unique in that both amine and olefin functionahties are available. This allows the aHylamines to find uses in many areas where the simpler aLkylamines are not suitable, eg, taking advantage of the double bond to form polymeric ammonium salts used as flocculating agents (see... 

Ritter Reaction (Method 4). A small but important class of amines are manufactured by the Ritter reaction. These are the amines in which the nitrogen atom is adjacent to a tertiary alkyl group. In the Ritter reaction a substituted olefin such as isobutylene reacts with hydrogen cyanide under acidic conditions (12). The resulting formamide is then hydroly2ed to the parent primary amine. Typically sulfuric acid is used in this transformation of an olefin to an amine. Stoichiometric quantities of sulfate salts are produced along with the desired amine. 

Etherification. Ethers of amyl alcohols have been prepared by reaction with ben2hydrol (63), activated aromatic haUdes (64), dehydration-addition reactions (65), addition to olefins (66—71), alkoxylation with olefin oxides (72,73) and displacement reactions involving thek alkah metal salts (74—76). 

Subsequent dehydrohalogenation afforded exclusively the desired (Z)-olefin of the PGI2 methyl ester. Conversion to the sodium salt was achieved by treatment with sodium hydroxide. The sodium salt is crystalline and, when protected from atmospheric moisture and carbon dioxide, is indefinitely stable. A variation of this synthesis started with a C-5 acetylenic PGF derivative and used a mercury salt cataly2ed cyclization reaction (219). Although natural PGI has not been identified, the syntheses of both (6R)- and (65)-PGl2, [62777-90-6] and [62770-60-7], respectively, have been described, as has that of PGI3 (104,216). 

Addition to Olefins. OrganohydrosHanes can also be prepared by addition of halosHanes and organosilanes containing multiple Si—H bonds to olefins. These reactions are catalyzed by platinum, platinum salts, peroxides, ultraviolet light, or ionizing radiation. 

Polymers. In combination with various metal salts, sorbitol is used as a stabilizer against heat and light in poly(vinyl chloride) (qv) resins and, with a phenohc antioxidant, as a stabilizer in uncured styrene—butadiene mbber (qv) compositions and in polyolefins (see Heat stabilizers Olefin POLYMERS Rubbercompounding). Heat-sealable films are prepared from a dispersion of sorbitol and starch in water (255). Incorporation of sorbitol in coUagen films gready restricts their permeabiUty to carbon dioxide (256). 

Anhydrous sulfonic acids, particularly linear alkylben2enesulfonic acids, are typically stored ia stainless steel containers, preferably type 304 or 316 stainless steel. Use of other metals, such as mild steel, contaminates the acid with iron (qv), causiag a darkening of the acid over time (27). The materials are usually viscous oils which may be stored and handled at 30—35°C for up to two months (27). AH other detergent-grade sulfonic acids, eg, alcohol sulfates, alcohol ether sulfates, alpha-olefin sulfonates, and alpha-sulfomethyl esters, are not stored owiag to iastabiUty. These are neutrali2ed to the desired salt.
