Continuous-Flow Reductive Alkylation: Synthesis of Bio-based Symmetrical and Disymmetrical Ethers

For the first time, a reductive alkylation process in continuous flow has been elaborated for the conversion of bio-based alcohols and aldehydes into symmetrical and dissymmetrical high-value-added ethers for industrial companies. The developed method is an etherification associating liquid, solid and gas phases under green conditions (continuous flow, catalysis, bio-based starting materials).

PROCESS FOR MAKING A COMPOSITION COMPRISING AT LEAST TWO DIFFERENT DIALKYL ETHERS

The present invention relates to a process for making a composition comprising at least two different ethers using ethanol, or a combination of ethanol and methanol, as a starting material.

Organomagnesium Inner Complexes, Part I. Bis(dialkylaminoalkyl)- and Bis(alkoxybutyl)magnesium Compounds

A series of magnesium inner complexes has been prepared by reacting MgH2 (prepared by homogeneous catalysis) with dialkylallyl- and -3-butenylamines and -3-butenylethers in the presence of catalytic amounts of ZrCl4.The monomeric nature of bis(4-methoxybutyl)magnesium has been confirmed by X-ray diffraction.The analogous syntheses of bis(3-alkoxypropyl)magnesium compounds failed: cleavage of the allyl ether with elimination of propene occurred.This cleavage reaction is accelerated by catalytic amounts of NiCl2 or ZrCl4. - Keywords: Magnesium, Inner Complexes, Crystal Structure, X-Ray

FLUORINATION OF 2-ALKYL-SUBSTITUTED OXIRANES. THE SYNTHESIS AND PURIFICATION OF PERFLUORO(2-ALKYL-SUBSTITUTED OXANE)S

Five kinds of 2-alkyl-substituted oxanes like 2-ethyloxane, 2-n-propyloxane, 2-iso-propyloxane, 2-n-butyloxane and 2-n-amyloxane were fluorinated electrochemically to give the corresponding perfluoro(2-alkyloxane)s.The perfluoro(2-alkyloxane)s were obtained in good yields from these starting materials together with isomeric perfluoro(2-alkyloxolane)s, perfluoro(2-alkyl-5-methyloxolane)s and perfluoro(dialkyl ether)s.The purification of the perfluoro(2-alkyloxane)s which contained small amounts of isomeric perfluoro(2-alkyloxolane)s was succesfully achieved by recovering the former unreacted after treating these mixtures with anhydrous aluminum chloride at 150-160 deg C during ca. 48 hrs in order to convert the latter into the easy-separable perfluoro-(2,5,5-trichloro-2-alkyloxolane)s.Small quantities of new perfluoro(5,5-dichloroalkanoyl chloride)s were also among the chlorination products.The spectroscopic data as well as the physical properties of these new fluorination products, and perfluoro(2,5,5-trichloro-2-alkyloxolane)s and perfluoro(5,5-dichloroalkanoyl chloride)s are presented.
