FORMATION OF NITRATE ESTERS IN MICROREACTORS AND MILLIREACTORS USING A CONTINUOUS PRODUCT EXTRACTION IN A TURBULENT FLOW REGIME

A process for the continuous production of a compound of Formula (II), HO-R1-ONO2 (II) wherein R1 is a straight chain alkyl radical having from 3 to 6 carbon atoms, in a two-phase solvent system, comprising contacting a compound of Formula (I), HO-R1-OH (I) wherein R1 is as defined above, with nitric acid in the presence of a first solvent, wherein the compound of Formula (II) is continuously extracted into a second solvent, and the reaction is carried out in a mixing microreactor which provides a power loss of at least 1.3 times the power loss provided under identical conditions by a circular cross-section straight-channel microreactor having an internal diameter equal to the average hydraulic diameter of the mixing microreactor and a length equal to the length of the mixing microreactor.

A PROCESS FOR THE MONONITRATION OF ALKANEDIOLS

A process for the preparation of compounds of formula: HO-A-ONO2 (I) wherein A is a C2-C6 alkylene chain by nitration of the corresponding alkanediols with "stabilised" nitric acid is herein disclosed. The process is safer to operators and allows to obtain advantageous yields on an industrial scale.
