3- propanal ethylene acetal

Hydroxycyclobutanone. A new efficient synthesis of 2-hydroxycyclobuta-none involves as the first step reaction of 2-lithio-l,3-dithiane with 3-bromo-propanal ethylene acetal to form 1. Treatment of 1 with n-butyllithium at — 25 to — 15° for several hours effects cyclization to the alcohol 2. This is converted into...

Synthesis of Alkanals. Monoalkylation of 3-(phenylsulfo-nyl)propanal ethylene acetal (1) takes place at the position a to the phenylsulfonyl group on successive treatment with butyllithium and then with an alkyl halide. Deprotection of the acetal group and subsequent elimination of benzenesulfinic acid with a base produces the corresponding 2-alkenal (eq 1). ...

In another study, an apparams consisting of a primary pyrolyzer (Pyroprobe 1000) combined with a secondary reactor was used to study the thermal decomposition of three different chemical sewage sludges. The pyrolysis gases were swept directly into a gas chromatograph for analysis. Yields of 12 pyrolysis products were determined (methane, ethylene, ethane, propylene, propane, methanol, acetic acid, acetaldehyde, C4-hydrocarbons, CO, CO2, and water). The temperatures could be adjusted in the two-stage process such that nearly all of the organic material was converted to CO, CO2, and water at temperatures that retained the heavy metals (except for Cd and Hg) in the final residue.

With the exception of acetic, acryUc, and benzoic all other acids in Table 1 are primarily produced using oxo chemistry (see Oxo process). Propionic acid is made by the Hquid-phase oxidation of propionaldehyde, which in turn is made by appHcation of the oxo synthesis to ethylene. Propionic acid can also be made by oxidation of propane or by hydrocarboxylation of ethylene with CO and presence of a rhodium (2) or iridium (3) catalyst. 

To a well stirred suspension of 9 g of sodium phenyl acetate and 2.4 g of magnesium turnings in 25 cc of anhydrous ether, a solution of 9.4 cc of isopropyl bromide in 50 cc of anhydrous ether are added. The mixture is refluxed for one hour (during which time propane is evolved) and then 5 cc of cyclopentanone in 25 cc of anhydrous ether are added dropwise. The mixture is then refluxed for one hour and poured over ice water containing some hydrochloric acid. The ether solution is separated and extracted with 200 cc of 5% sodium hydroxide. The alkaline solution on acidification gives the free acid which is filtered off, dried in a desiccator and recrystallized from a mixture of ethylene dichloride and petroleum ether.

The preparation of dithianes from enamines by reaction with trimethylene dithiotosylate (propane-1,3-dithiol di-p-toluenesulfonate) has been applied with enamines derived from oholostan 3 one, aceto-acetic ester, and phenylacetone.6 7 Reactions of trimethylene dithiotosylate with hydroxymethylene derivatives of ketones also give rise to dithianes thus the hydroxymethylene derivative of cholest-4-en-3-one can be converted to 2,2-(trimethylenedithio)cholest-4-en-3-one. 1,3-Dithiolanes are obtained in a similar manner by reaction of ethylene dithiotosylate1 with the appropriately activated substrate.5,7... 

Table 8.1 shows the stochastic model solution for the petrochemical system. The solution indicated the selection of 22 processes with a slightly different configuration and production capacities from the deterministic case, Table 4.2 in Chapter 4. For example, acetic acid was produced by direct oxidation of n-butylenes instead of the air oxidation of acetaldehyde. Furthermore, ethylene was produced by pyrolysis of ethane instead of steam cracking of ethane-propane (50-50 wt%). These changes, as well as the different production capacities obtained, illustrate the effect of the uncertainty in process yield, raw material and product prices, and lower product... 

Research Focus Preparation of poly(ethylene-co-carbon monoxide) using the organome-tallic mixture consisting of palladium acetate and l,3-bis[bis(2-meth-oxy-5-methylphenyl)phosphino]propane. 

An autoclave was charged with palladium acetate (0.0140 g), l,3-bis[bis(2-methoxy-5-methylphenyl)phosphino]propane (0.0398 g), trifluoroacetic acid (0.0499 g), benzothiazole (0.4225 g), and 100 ml of acetone. The solution was then treated with 2497.5 ml of methanol and water (1000 ppm) and then sealed and stirred at 800 rpm. The mixture was heated to 70°C and carbon monoxide and ethylene having a molar ratio of 1 1.8, respectively, added until the internal pressure of the autoclave was 100 bar. The mixture was then stirred for 2 hours while the internal temperature and the internal pressure were maintained at 100 bar and 70°C. After cooling the contents were removed, degassed, filtered, washed with methanol several times, and 51.5 g of product isolated.

Concurrently with the work on carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide at General Electric, Steigelmann and Hughes [27] and others at Standard Oil were developing facilitated transport membranes for olefin separations. The principal target was the separation of ethylene/ethane and propylene/propane mixtures. Both separations are performed on a massive scale by distillation, but the relative volatilities of the olefins and paraffins are so small that large columns with up to 200 trays are required. In the facilitated transport process, concentrated aqueous silver salt solutions, held in microporous cellulose acetate flat sheets or hollow fibers, were used as the carrier. 

Micro structured wells (2 mm x 2 mm x 0.2 mm) on the catalyst quartz wafer were manufactured by sandblasting with alumina powder through steel masks [7]. Each well was filled with mg catalyst. This 16 x 16 array of micro reactors was supplied with reagents by a micro fabricated gas distribution wafer, which also acted as a pressure restriction. The products were trapped on an absorbent plate by chemical reaction, condensation or absorption. The absorbent array was removed from the reactor and sprayed with dye solution to obtain a color reaction, which was then used for the detection of active catalysts by a CCD camera. Alternatively, the analysis was also carried out with a scanning mass spectrometer. The above-described reactor configuration was used for the primary screening of the oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane to ethylene, the selective oxidation of ethane to acetic acid, and the selective ammonoxidation of propane to acrylonitrile.
