Pyrole

The starting amino acid for nylon-11 is produced from methyl ricinoleate [141 -24-2] which is obtained from castor oil (qv). The methyl ricinoleate is pyrolized to methyl 10-undecylenate [25339-67-7] and heptanal [111-71-7]. The unsaturated ester is hydroly2ed and then converted to the amino acid by hydrobromination, followed by ammoniation and acidification. The CO-amino acid product is a soft paste containing water, which is dried in the first step of the polymeri2ation process. 

Pyrrohdinone (2-pyrrohdone, butyrolactam or 2-Pyrol) (27) was first reported in 1889 as a product of the dehydration of 4-aminobutanoic acid (49). The synthesis used for commercial manufacture, ie, condensation of butyrolactone with ammonia at high temperatures, was first described in 1936 (50). Other synthetic routes include carbon monoxide insertion into allylamine (51,52), hydrolytic hydrogenation of succinonitnle (53,54), and hydrogenation of ammoniacal solutions of maleic or succinic acids (55—57). Properties of 2-pyrrohdinone are Hsted in Table 2. 2-Pyrrohdinone is completely miscible with water, lower alcohols, lower ketones, ether, ethyl acetate, chloroform, and benzene. It is soluble to ca 1 wt % in aUphatic hydrocarbons. 

Methyl-2-Pyrrolidinone. N-Meth5l-2-pyrrohdinone [872-50-4] (44) (NMP or methyl-2-pyrrohdone, M-Pyrol) was fkst reported in 1907 as prepared by alkylation of 2-pyrrohdinone with methyl iodide (81). The present commercial route, ie, condensation of butyrolactone with methylamine, was first described in 1936 (50). 

Vinyl-2-PyrroHdinone. l-Vinyl-2-pyrroHdinone (VP) (l-ethenyl-2-pyrroHdinone, A/-vinyl-2-pyrroHdone, and V-Pyrol) is manufactured by ISP in the United States and by BASF in Germany by vinylation of 2-pyrroHdinone with acetylene. It forms the basis for a significant specialty polymer and copolymer industry and consumes the primary portion of aH 2-pyrroHdinone manufactured (see Vinyl polymers, n-vinyl monomers and polymers). 

Kutrieb Corporation (Chetek, Wisconsin) operates a pyrolator process for converting tires into oil, pyrolytic filler, gas, and steel. Nu-Tech (Bensenvike, Illinois) employs the Pyro-Matic resource recovery system for tire pyrolysis, which consists of a shredding operation, storage hopper, char-coUection chambers, furnace box with a 61-cm reactor chamber, material-feed conveyor, control-feed inlet, and oil collection system. It is rated to produce 272.5 L oil and 363 kg carbon black from 907 kg of shredded tires. TecSon Corporation (Janesville, Wisconsin) has a Pyro-Mass recovery system that pyroly2es chopped tire particles into char, oil, and gas. The system can process up to 1000 kg/h and produce 1.25 MW/h (16). 

Acryhc elastomers are normally stable and not reactive with water. The material must be preheated before ignition can occur, and fire conditions offer no hazard beyond that of ordinary combustible material (56). Above 300°C these elastomers may pyrolize to release ethyl acrylate and other alkyl acrylates. Otherwise, thermal decomposition or combustion may produce carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen chloride, and/or other chloiinated compounds if chlorine containing monomers are present ia the polymer. 

The properties and applications of intrinsically conductive polymers have been reviewed (Frommer and Chance, 1986 Sauerer, 1991). The Important poly-pyrolles have been separately reviewed (Jasne, 1988). 

In addition, some of the nitrogen compounds end up in light cycle oil (LCO) as pyrolles and pyridines [5]. These compounds are easily oxidized and will affect color stability. The amount of nitrogen in the LCO depends on the conversion. An increase in conversion decreases the percentage of nitrogen in the LCO and increases the percentage on the catalyst.

The secondary amine that was used could be tetrahydrocarbazole or pyrol. The reaction was known and not mentioned as being dangerous. The authors of this new experiment used four times the amounts recommended in the method published. They also introduced the ionic compound at 0°C and stopped the cooling rapidly. These changes were sufficient to cause the medium to heat up and then detonate. It was considered to be due to the nitrile polymerisation caused by ammonium salt.

As it follows from Table 5, many catalysts contain metallic platinum. We have developed bi-layer porous hydrophobic air electrodes, which do not contain platinum metals, are active and can be cycled [24, 25] (Figures 4-6). These bifunctional catalysts are pyrolized Co - macrocyclic compounds. Said catalyst has high catalytic activity for the oxygen reduction and also features acceptable stability, however its activity for the oxygen evolution is not high enough.
