Selective monomethyl esterification of linear dicarboxylic acids with bifunctional alumina catalysts

An environmentally friendly protocol for the selective protection of dicarboxylic acids is reported using methanol as a cheap esterifying agent and alumina as a heterogeneous catalyst; the selectivity of the process has been ascribed to a balanced acidity/basicity of the bifunctional alumina catalyst.

PROCESS FOR PRODUCING DODECANE-1, 12-DIOL BY REDUCTION OF LAURYL LACTONE PRODUCED FROM THE OXIDATION OF CYCLODODECANONE

A process for synthesizing dodecane-1,12-diol, and by-products thereof, by the reduction of lauryl lactone produced from the oxidation of cyclododecanone.

Methylation of Alcohols, Phenols, and Carboxylic Acids, and Selective Monomethylation of Diols and Dicarboxylic Acids with Dimethyl Sulfate by Use of Alumina

Alcohols in cyclohexane give their methyl ethers in high yields by the use of a combination of dimethyl sulfate and alumina.Some diols and dicarboxylic acids adsorbed on alumina react with dimethyl sulfate and produce the corresponding monomethyl ethers and esters in high selectivities.
