Page/Page column 12, (2008/06/13)
horny substances are removed from hides of dead animals by a process wherein the hides of dead animals are treated with at least one substance of the formula I or at least one corresponding alkali metal, alkaline earth metal, ammonium or phosphonium salt, where R1 and R4 are identical or different and are selected from hydrogen, C6-C14-aryl and C1-C12-alkyl, unsubstituted or substituted by one or more SH or OH groups, R2 and R3 are identical or different and are selected from hydrogen, C6-C14-aryl and C1-C12-alkyl, unsubstituted or substituted by one or more SH or OH groups, at least one radical R2 or R3 not being hydrogen or R1 and R4 not being hydrogen, and it being possible in each case for two vicinal radicals R1 to R4 together to be C3-C10-alkylene, R5 is selected from hydrogen, C1-C12-alkyl, H—C═O or C1-C4-alkyl-C═O, X1, X2, X3 and X4 are selected from OH, SH and NHR5, where, if R1 to R4 contain at least one sulfur atom, at least one radical X1 to X4 is SH, and, if R1 to R4 contain no sulfur atom, at least two radicals X1 to X4 are SH.
Epoxidation of terminal or electron-deficient olefins with H2O2, catalysed by Mn-trimethyltriazacyclonane complexes in the presence of an oxalate buffer

A catalytic amount of an oxalate/oxalic acid buffer strongly enhances the catalytic properties of Mn-tmtacn complexes for epoxidation reactions with H2O2. Especially terminal olefins are easily epoxidized. Yields for e.g. allyl acetate or 1-hexene reach up to 99 % and 65 % on olefin and peroxide basis respectively. The reaction is stereospecific; there are no products of solvolysis.
