- METHOD FOR PRODUCING XYLYLENEDIAMINE
-
Provided is a method for stably and economically producing xylylenediamine with a high yield and long catalyst service life by hydrogenating dicyanobenzene that is obtained by ammoxidating xylene. By bringing an aqueous basic solution into contact with a dicyanobenzene-absorbed liquid, which is obtained by bringing an ammoxidation reaction gas into contact with an organic solvent, under specified temperature conditions, and subjecting a base and a carboxylic acid in the dicyanobenzene-absorbed liquid to a neutralization reaction so as to form an aqueous phase that contains a water-soluble salt, and then subjecting an organic phase and the aqueous phase to liquid-liquid separation so as to remove the aqueous phase, it is possible to remove the carboxylic acid contained in the dicyanobenzene-absorbed liquid with high selectivity while inhibiting loss of the dicyanobenzene. By subjecting the raw material dicyanobenzene, which is obtained by separating low boiling point compounds from the post liquid-liquid separation organic phase by distillation under reduced pressure, to hydrogenation, xylylenediamine is produced with a high yield and the service life of the hydrogenation catalyst is extended.

- Process for dyeing keratinous fibers combining isatin or its derivatives with a tri-, tetra- or pentasubstituted aniline or with a bisphenylalkylenediamine, and dyeing agents
-
The invention relates to a process for dyeing keratinous fibres, comprising the simultaneous or sequential application of a component (A) containing at least one compound of formula (I): STR1 in which: R1 denotes hydrogen, alkyl, acetyl, benzoyl, phenyl or C1 -C4 carboxyalkyl, R2 and R3 denote hydrogen, alkyl, alkoxy, hydroxyalkyl, amino, halogen, nitro, alkylphenyl, phenyl, alkylamino or hydroxyalkylamino, and a component (B) containing at least (i) a compound of formula (II): STR2 in which: Y denotes OH or NR8 R9, R8 and R9, which are identical or different, denote hydrogen, aminoethyl, hydroxyethyl or C1 -C4 alkyl, R4 to R7 independently of each other denote a hydrogen atom, a C1 -C4 alkyl, a chlorine, a C1 -C4 alkoxy, an acetylamino, an aryloxy, not more than two of the groups R4 to R7 denote a hydrogen atom, excluding 2,5-dimethoxy-1,4-diaminobenzene, and the cosmetically acceptable salts, or (ii) a bisphenylalkylenediamine. It also relates to the dyeing agents for implementing it.

- Ethylenic silicon compounds and thermoplastic elastomers obtained therefrom
-
The invention provides organosilicon compounds of the formula: STR1 in which: N IS 1, 2 OR 3; Each R, which may be identical or different, is a monovalent organic group which contains a carbon-carbon double bond and from 2 to 10 carbon atoms; Each R1, which may be identical or different, is a straight or branched alkyl radical optionally substituted by one or more halogen atoms or cyano groups; an aryl radical or an alkylaryl radical optionally substituted by one or more halogen atoms; R2 is a straight or branched divalent alkylene or alkylidene radical possessing up to 4 carbon atoms; X is a divalent radical consisting of, or containing, at least one hetero-atom selected from oxygen, sulphur and nitrogen atoms, the radical being attached to the radical R2 via a said hetero-atom; G is an organic radical of valency (m+ l) possess from 1 to 30 carbon atoms; m is 1, 2 or 3; And each Y, which may be identical or different, is a functional group selected from: --NO2, STR2 --COOM (where M represents a sodium, potassium or lithium atom); --COOR4 ; STR3 --COCl; --OH; --OR4 ; STR4 --SH; --SR4 ; STR5 --CONH2 ; --CSNH2 ; --CN; --CH2 --NH2 ; --CHO; STR6 --NCO; STR7 wherein R3 represents a hydrogen atom or a straight or branched alkyl radical possessing up to 6 carbon atoms and R4 represents an alkyl radical possessing up to 4 carbon atoms, with the proviso that two Y groups can together constitute an imide group STR8 wherein R5 represents a hydrogen atom or a straight or branched alkyl radical possessing up to 4 carbon atoms. These are useful intermediates in the preparation of disilanes and silicon polymers, in particular of polyethylenic silicon compounds which can be polymerized with an α, ω-dihydrogenopolysiloxane to give thermoplastic elastomers.
